Every life in the world has its own hobbies.Some people like to sing, and some people like to listen to others sing.Some people like chaos, some people like to drag others crazy together, and that's right, it's you, Mr.
Deadpool who is reading this book.Of course, apart from such extremists, most people's hobbies are quite normal.Raise flowers, pet cats, plant something or something.If it's a little more elegant, then collecting, or collecting, is very appropriate.Find eye-catching treasures from this bizarre world, and then carefully collect those treasures and place them in a specific place, usually an exhibition case or something.Wealthy families would open up an additional storage room for their collections, such as the room in the Mystery House that the Raven Lord never let in.Wealthier families will enlarge their pantry and add small decorations to show off their individuality.Normally, such a place is called a treasure trove.Yes, similar to the one that Odin set up in the Golden Palace.Figures like Merlin and Odin are already at the top of the collecting world.They have in their hands things that most people have never heard of, or wonderful things that only remain in legends.But in the ranks of collectors, they are not really top-notch.Among the ethereal stars, there is a true "collector".Although he has only recently become famous in this universe, anyone who has seen him will sincerely call him "Collector".In short, after a team of interstellar pirates who strayed here spread the name of the Void, this starry city that existed in the skulls of strange creatures became a place of "only entry but no exit".Perhaps a serious collector's habit, the owner of this place, the collector, announced to the entire universe.Any unique, one-of-a-kind item, no matter where it comes from, no matter what it looks like, no matter what it does and what it does, as long as it is truly unique, then it can be exchanged for remuneration from the Collector.Any reward!
The wealthy collector seems to have it all, but the revenge of the mysterious collector is also absolutely brutal for those villains who dare to deceive him with fakes, or try to rob him by force.In short, as long as you have the real thing in your hand, you can exchange everything in this place of nothingness!
Star elements, precious materials, mysterious knowledge, barter, and even lucky people have been exchanged for a complete small fleet here.Finally, there's the news!
Those news about the mysteries of the stars, precious news, enough to determine the life and death and future of a star field.That's what Thor and Loki came here for.They need some news.Thor had just made a big fuss in the Void, fighting a group of drunken interstellar pirates in a bar full of aliens of all kinds.It started when a birdman from the Xia Empire tried to tease Loki.Well, it's easy to get around in a lawless place with a pretty girl.In a place where there is no order, no rules, the desire for life will be magnified unlimitedly, that longing, and the anger and cruelty that arise from not being able to ask for it.The owner of the Void, the collector, only cares about the collectibles he owns, or will have, and he doesn't care about the environment or the rules of the place.Around his needs, a massive black market soon formed.Not everyone who comes with a treasure can be rewarded by a collector.Although those inferior treasures are despised by collectors, there are naturally people with lower style who covet them, murder and oversell goods, clever words and fraud, etc., and these acts are staged in the void almost all the time.Generous collectors also occasionally issue some mercenary orders to find treasures, so some interstellar mercenaries have also formed groups to come to this "good place".And after a place has a bad enough reputation, or rather, this ghost place is "free" enough, there will be more people who crave chaos to be attracted to it.It's a vicious circle.All in all, it's a terrible, terrible place.But fortunately, even with the loss of his divine powers, Thor did not become an unarmed weakling.He escorts the delicate Loki all the way out of the chaotic bar.The tomahawks in their hands were covered in blood, and under the protection of the brutal, fire-breathing goats and grinders, the two princes ran down the streets."
I mean, it's not a big deal to play with those guys."
Loki sat in the saddle of the Tooth Biter in a ladylike posture, and she said to the panting Thor beside her: "They are all stupid, I can easily dismiss them with illusions, why should you be strong, Thor, you are no longer the invincible Thor who wields a war hammer, you are just an ordinary person now." ”"Shut up."
Thor glared angrily at his sister, who was afraid that the world would not be chaotic.He rubbed his aching fists as he adjusted his breathing, and said, "Those stinky pirates have so hard bones, I'm starting to hate this place."
Did you just ask where the collector is?
”"Of course I did."
Loki took a jewel-like object from the pocket of her dress and tossed it up and down in her hand, she ruffled her long hair and said to her brother, "Actually, if you had done a little late, I could have 'convinced' that birdman to take us to the Collector...""
The collector is in a place of nothingness, and we don't have to see it if we want to, we have to find his servants to tell us what we're coming for, and then the collector decides whether to see us or not," she said. ”"Or, we can find someone who is trusted by the collector and take us in directly.""
Right there!"
Loki sat on a galloping goat, and she harnessed the savage creature in a haphazard manner.Knock a short man with four hands who was standing in the middle of the road and couldn't dodge, and then point to the highest position in the inner city of the Void with the short man's shrill cry.She said to Thor, "It's the collector's house, or the treasure trove, or something." ”"Then we'll go there!"
Thor grabbed the reins of the Toothbiter and carried the tomahawk behind his back.He called out in Asgard, and the two huge goats let out a low roar, changing course on the chaotic path and rushing towards the Collector's Treasury.They made their way through the chaotic outer city, and soon stepped into the quieter inner city.The buildings here are no different from those of the outer city, they are all beehive-like black metal creations that have no beauty at all, and are inhabited by workers who work silently in clothes similar to chemical hazmat suits.It's more like a factory gathering some kind of mysterious substance than a chaotic outer city."
What's that?"
Thor looked at a "well" not far away, a well in the biological structure of the ancient creature's skull, with machinery running in it, constantly pumping out some yellow liquid from deeper in the ground.It looks like the people of the earth are digging for oil."
That's organics."
Loki snorted and explained to his brother, "I heard in the tavern that the Collector has been extracting the remaining organic matter from this ancient remains since they came here, and after special treatment, they are sold as fuel to the forces of the nearby star field. ”"It's a unique technology, so it's a huge profit, but I'm more curious, what is the origin of this ancient creature that has been dead here for an unknown amount of time?"
Loki looked up, her big pretty eyes staring at the dark dome above her head, and she said with a hint of awe, "It must be a force that we don't know and can't imagine." ”A few minutes later, the two brothers arrived at the collector's residence, but unexpectedly, someone was already waiting for them there.It was a woman with pink skin and a short white dress.Dressed like a doll, but judging by her bones and joints, it appears to be a robotic, or half-machine, half-flesh creature, and she maintains a rather awkward posture.The left hand and the right hand are clasped together, and they are placed in the position of the heart, and there is a smile on the beautiful face that seems to be frozen.In short, it makes people very uncomfortable."
Your Excellency Tivan has been informed of the arrival of the two men."
The girl stood at the foot of the stairs leading to the collector's house, and she politely said to Thor and Loki, who had jumped off the goats, "The master is waiting to meet the two of you, please come with me, oh, the goats can stay here, and someone will take care of them." ”Loki and Thor looked at each other.The two brothers made eye contact for a moment, then followed the eccentric maid and stepped into the collector's quarters.A mega museum!
It was Thor's first impression of the collector's house, like a giant museum that was not well managed, and from the moment you entered, the rather large room was filled with all sorts of glass cabins.It was an exhibition compartment made of black metal bars and clear glass, and each compartment contained a collection.Plants, animals, bugs, mechanical creations, and even cocoon-like things.Thor also saw a golden retriever in a spacesuit in a glass cabin, well, judging by the logo on the spacesuit, the dog was supposed to be from Earth."
A Soviet dog ...
Oh, my God. ”Thor spoiled.The next moment, the dog lying on the ground looked up at him, staring at him with a rather humane gaze, which made Thor's scalp tingle."
What do you see?"
A rather deep voice suddenly sounded in Thor's head, with a smell of Russian.“？？？”
Thor's eyes widened as he stared at the dog in the spacesuit in front of him.He could be sure that the sound was made by the dog."
Look at it again and it will blow your eyes out!
In the name of the mighty USSR!
”The dog barked at Thor.It bared its teeth, and a huge spiritual force smashed over, like the fists of the old Russian hairymen, ruthless and fierce, and Thor was dizzy, making him subconsciously clench the tomahawk behind his back.But then, a somewhat pretentious voice rang out in the room."
Cosmo!
Be quiet!
Don't disturb my guests. ”The moment this voice sounded, the irascible Soviet space dog immediately fell silent.It wagged its tail and glared at Thor rather fiercely, but quickly returned to its kennel in the exhibition barn."
And you, my honored guest, don't be too provocative of Cosmo.Maybe you can suppress it when you are Thor, but believe me, you are no match for it now. ”"This bad dog is very vengeful, and once you really off it, even I can't stop you from turning into a stinking pile of...
Oh my God, I shouldn't have said such foul language. ”"Especially when there is such a beautiful and elegant lady...", the voice grew clearer, and with the sound of footsteps, the owner of the Fantasy Museum appeared before Thor and Loki.He has white hair and a somewhat non-mainstream hairstyle.A strange robe of red and black, with white fluff on the shoulders, imbued with a solemnity that Thor could not understand, with white gloves and a strange oil paint on the chin.Well, at first glance, this collector doesn't seem to be a person to like.He was filled with an indescribable sense of weirdness, not just in his clothes or expressions, but also in that gaze, the gaze that was projected on Thor and Loki like cargo."
I beg your pardon for my previous rudeness, beautiful lady.""
Let me introduce myself, my name is Tanlia.
Tivan, a collector, a collector, I am interested in all the strange things in the stars, and I am willing to pay for them. ”He walked up to Loki and leaned down towards Loki, his hands outstretched in a strange manner.This caused Loki to let out a fluttering laugh, and she seemed to enjoy the unique treatment, but the collector's next sentence made Loki's face darken."
There was a kiss on the hand, ma'am."
The collector straightened up, he looked at Loki, and he said, "But considering that you were a man before, I'm going to skip this link." ”"Okay, let's stop wasting each other's precious time."
The collector waved his finger back, and his equally eccentric, reddish-skinned mechanical maid turned around, and in a jingle of tinkling, a workbench with all sorts of strange instruments was pushed out.The collector stood behind the workbench, he looked at Thor and Loki, and he said, "Say it." ”"What do you want from me?""
What have you brought me?"
The collector seems polite, but this strange place and its strange owner make Thor uncomfortable, so he doesn't want to have a relationship with this guy anymore.He stepped forward and said to the collector, "We want to know how we can find the Mind Gem and the Power Gem!"
”"Wow."

The collector let out a strange exclamation, a twinkle flashed in his eyes, and he made a snorting gesture with a very fake movement.He pretended to sniff his fingers and said, "I smell it, it's the smell of big business." ”"But I'm going to see if you can pay enough.""
Bang" something was thrown on the workbench.The next moment, the light of Rune's runes filled the collector's eyes, and even his expression became...
Surprise?
