#673 - The artifact is released and the two are honest with each other

“My name is Thor,” Thor announced loudly.

“I’m here to find my friend, whose name is Yang Le. He told me I could find him here. Please let him know that Thor is here to see him.”

Upon hearing that he was looking for Yang Le, Gwen didn't waste any time. She simply asked Thor to wait a moment and then ran inside the warehouse to contact Yang Le.

Yang Le was actually still in the pocket dimension laboratory. Without the brainwave key in Valeria's possession, ordinary people couldn't enter that pocket dimension, unless you were like Franklin; in that case, ignore what I just said.

However, that didn’t mean they couldn't contact Yang Le and the others. Valeria had naturally anticipated similar situations. Although she didn't leave a spare key, she did have a dedicated communicator.

Gwen dialed the communicator and told Valeria on the other end what had happened. According to her, Yang Le was currently at the end of forging a weapon and would be out soon.

Seeing this, Gwen wanted to notify Thor to wait a moment, but before she could hang up, she heard Yang Le's excited shout from the other end.

“Yes! I did it! I did it!”

Gwen really wanted to ask what Yang Le had accomplished, but there were other important things at hand, and this little matter wasn't urgent.

“What? Thor is here to see me?” Yang Le took the communicator. “I'll be right out. Wait for me.”

After speaking, Yang Le hung up the communicator and also put away the weapon he had just forged.

It was a pool of pure gold liquid, which had been attached to Yang Le's body while he was talking to Gwen. If you didn't look closely, you would have thought it was a golden cloak.

As Yang Le flicked his right wrist, the pool of liquid attached to his back quickly gathered towards his right wrist, and in a short time, it condensed into a golden bracelet.

Yang Le frowned as he looked at the smooth surface. With a thought, some patterns immediately appeared on the smooth surface of the bracelet, exquisitely carved and looking incredibly delicate, coupled with the bracelet's glittering golden surface, it looked incredibly luxurious.

Nodding in satisfaction, Yang Le then looked at Valeria, who had been waiting for a long time, and the latter immediately opened the portal to the laboratory.

Stepping into the familiar polygonal doorway, the scene in front of Yang Le changed rapidly, and the next second he returned to Gwen's secret base.

“I hope I haven't kept the guest waiting.” Yang Le said with a smile, probably because he had just forged a divine weapon, he was in a particularly good mood at this time.

…

“It’s a pleasure to see you again, my friend.” Yang Le said with a smile as he embraced the equally happy Thor. The two burst into laughter after colliding with each other.

Accustomed to Yang Le's personality of saying different things to different people, Gwen didn't find Yang Le's sudden boldness strange. She just silently walked into the kitchen and brought out two kinds of drinks.

One was Yang Le's favorite sparkling water, and the other was the Asgardians' favorite, fruit wine brewed from fruits cultivated with swamp fire.

This fruit wine was also a favorite of Gwen, Valeria, and the other girls. Saying it was wine was actually more like juice, with a low alcohol content, plus the superhuman physique, they naturally wouldn't get drunk no matter how much they drank.

Although Asgardians might not like this low-alcohol juice, it was already the only alcoholic beverage here. The rest was only cooking wine and rice wine that Yang Le occasionally used for cooking.

Thor quickly thanked Gwen for her hospitality. As the Crown Prince of Asgard, he had been cultivated by his mother Frigga since he was a child to have the ability to see through people. Although this ability was still not as good as his mother, Thor could still see the not-so-simple relationship between Yang Le and Gwen.

The love in their eyes couldn't be concealed. He had seen similar emotions among countless couples and lovers in Asgard, especially in the eyes of his parents and sister.

Of course, it would be even better if his sister didn't look at him with this kind of gaze.

Thinking of that green figure, Thor couldn't help but shudder. If it weren't for hiding from her, Thor wouldn't have needed to go to the battlefield so often. Although the Nine Realms were large, where did so many wars come from? Most of the time, he went to garrison the border.

Although he didn't know why his father and mother didn't stop his sister's outrageous behavior, the two still had some sense and didn't let that little girl run to the army to play around, which could be considered leaving Thor a piece of pure land.

“What’s wrong, my friend?” Yang Le asked with concern. “Is the wine not to your liking? I’m sorry, I only have this kind of fruit wine here.”

“Not at all.” Thor quickly denied. “Although this fruit wine isn’t strong, you can feel its quality as soon as you taste it. The fruit used to brew it is definitely not ordinary. Even in my hometown, this fruit wine would definitely have a place.”

‘At least that little girl would definitely like it.’ Thor thought in his heart.

“It’s good that it suits your taste.” Yang Le waved his hand. “Then it’s time to talk business. You came to me so quickly, I assume the mission didn’t go smoothly?”

“Yes.” Thor put down the bowl. There was no way, because the cups at home were too small for Thor, Gwen could only use a rice bowl to hold his wine.

“I followed the addresses you gave me and went there, but unfortunately, none of them were the target I was looking for. I know this is a bit demanding, Happy, but I still want to ask you to help me one more time.”

Thor looked sincere and told Yang Le what he had decided after thinking it over and over again.

“I’ve decided to tell you the truth, my friend. This is a very serious topic, and I hope you don’t betray my trust.”

“I can write a letter of guarantee or swear, my friend.” Yang Le also rarely looked serious. “I guarantee that I won’t betray your trust.”

“I believe you, my friend.” Thor nodded, and was just about to continue speaking when he saw Gwen tactfully preparing to leave, and he immediately stopped her.

“There’s no need to do that. I can’t do things that would make a couple suspicious of each other. When I decided to say it, I already trusted you 100%.”

The Asgardians' boldness was indeed comforting. This kind of way of getting along, where you don't suspect people you employ and employ people you don't suspect, wouldn't be a problem for anyone.

Seeing Yang Le and Gwen take their seats, Thor then slowly told the story about Asgard and the person he was looking for, coupled with his heroic voice, it really felt like listening to an epic hero story.

“That’s how it is, my friend. Although I know it’s hard for you to accept, this is my true identity, the Crown Prince of Asgard, the Thor, the God of Thunder in the legends of Midgard.”

“At the same time, my descent to Midgard this time is to find a compatriot of the Asa Protoss who has inherited the godhood of the God of War.”
