Regarding Voden, this King of Gods and expert whose Steam Power even surpasses Ancient One, Xu Fu will still offer the appropriate respect.
Not to mention he doesn't have any ill feelings towards Asgard, and they haven't caused him any trouble.
Xu Fu isn't a mad dog who bites everyone he sees.
Facing experts, especially those who are stronger than himself in every aspect, going on the offensive would either be idiotic or the act of a conceited fool.
Besides, Xu Fu is here to ask for a star chart, so he should have the attitude of someone asking for a favor.
Seeing Xu Fu's attitude, Voden and Huo Mu Da Er were completely relieved.
Having lived for at least a thousand years, they could tell that this young expert, Xu Fu, wasn't here to cause trouble for Asgard.
"Mr. Xu Fu," Voden asked, "what brings you to Asgard this time?"
Voden returned Xu Fu's goodwill with a faint smile.
"I'm here to ask for a star chart of Asgard," Xu Fu stated his goal directly. Going to the endless star sea without star chart coordinates would be very difficult.
Upon hearing Xu Fu's words, Voden habitually furrowed his brow.
You must know that a star chart is a civilization's crucial strategic secret, even more important than scientific technology.
Each star chart represents the successive efforts of a civilization's masters, inch by inch, explored with their blood and lives.
Moreover, if Xu Fu were to obtain their Asgardian star chart...
Who could guarantee that Xu Fu wouldn't follow the star chart's guidance to plunder the planets under Asgard's control?
If Xu Fu's attitude weren't so good, these words alone would have been enough for Voden to start a war with Xu Fu.
"I'm very sorry, but I cannot agree to your request," Voden stubbornly shook his head.
Xu Fu didn't intend to take advantage and simply take their precious star chart for free.
"I can discuss some cooperation with Asgard."
A confident expression appeared on Xu Fu's face. He believed that Voden would definitely agree to his terms.
"Oh?"
Voden was intrigued. He wanted to see what this Midgardian, Xu Fu, would use to trade for the star chart.
To be honest, even the Ark, floating in the sky above the Nine Realms Bridge and built entirely of Vibranium, couldn't compare to the value of the star chart.
"Xu Fu, Your Highness, what will you trade?" Voden couldn't help but ask.
"A prophecy!"
"…" Voden said in surprise.
It wasn't that he thought the prophecy Xu Fu spoke of was unreliable.
Clearly, an expert like Xu Fu had the dignity of an expert.
It was impossible for him to tell such a low-level lie.
What surprised Voden was that Xu Fu actually possessed the ability to foresee the future.
His Queen, Queen of Gods Frigga, also had the ability to foresee the future, but she could only see many flashing images.
Moreover, it was difficult to determine which time period they would appear in, and it was also difficult to determine whether they would actually occur in the future.
Even so, Queen of Gods Frigga had helped Asgard avoid many crises.
It could be said that Queen of Gods Frigga's contributions were indispensable to Asgard's continued stability.
That was why Voden was so surprised when Xu Fu said he would trade a prophecy, and in an instant, he valued Xu Fu even more.
"That's right, it's a prophecy, and it's about Ragnarok!" Xu Fu said with a smile.
Upon hearing the words Ragnarok, Voden suddenly gripped Gungnir in his palm, and his whole body surged with Godly Power.
Ragnarok was the future that his wife had foreseen the earliest and most often.
However, Voden and all the Asgardians still hadn't discovered any signs of it, and in the end, they could only write it into the history books to warn future generations.
For thousands of years, this Ragnarok had become a knot in Voden's heart. Suddenly hearing Ragnarok from Xu Fu, how could Voden not be excited?
"Is it accurate and guaranteed?" Voden suppressed the impulse in his mind and asked with a slightly trembling tone.
"100% accurate!"
Seeing Voden's reaction, Xu Fu's eyes flashed, preparing for the words that followed.
After hearing Xu Fu's affirmative answer, Voden took a few deep breaths imperceptibly, suppressed the impulse in his mind, pondered for a moment, and replied:
"Mr. Xu Fu, I agree to your deal, but I want one more thing!" Voden stared intently at Xu Fu with his one eye.
And Xu Fu, after hearing Voden's somewhat shameless request, frowned slightly imperceptibly.
"…"
"Your favor. I ask that when Asgard encounters a crisis of survival in the future, you appear to support Asgard once!" Voden said sincerely.
He could tell how powerful and young Xu Fu was. Although with Xu Fu's current Power, Voden believed that he could still slightly surpass Xu Fu.
But one was a lion nearing his grave, and the other was a tiger descending the mountain with vigorous development. The future was naturally different.
Xu Fu was only not yet twenty years old, yet he was already so powerful. Heaven knows how powerful he would be in the future.
This was also the fundamental reason why Voden had always treated Xu Fu as an equal.
With thousands of years of experience, Voden could foresee that as long as Xu Fu, this hidden dragon, rushed into the Universe, this great stage, he would become powerful at an unprecedented Speed.
Voden's additional request was to add another layer of protection to Asgard after his death.
He was already old and nearing the time of his demise, and Asgard's new King was not yet qualified to inherit his throne.
Previously, his eldest daughter had such qualifications and Power, but Hel's thoughts were too extreme, and in the end, she would only lead Asgard to destruction.
After hearing Voden's additional request, Xu Fu rubbed his chin with his palm, a symbolic action when he was studying a problem.
After a moment, Xu Fu, having weighed the pros and cons, finally had an answer.
"I can agree to you, but only once."
"Moreover, if the opponent is too powerful at that time, and even I can't defeat them, then this agreement will naturally be invalid 0.8," Xu Fu said seriously.
Voden breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and he also agreed with Xu Fu's request in his heart.
After all, you can't use a single cooperation to force the other party to go crazy for you!
Xu Fu's ability to say this proved that he was a person who valued agreements, and Voden became even more relaxed.
When Asgard encounters an opponent that Xu Fu cannot handle in the future, that will be Asgard's luck.
"Don't worry, since you have an additional condition, then I have to return the courtesy," Xu Fu said with a slight displeasure.
He came here only to fish, but he was going to be tied together with others, so he was naturally a little unhappy.
Of course, this was also Xu Fu's own choice. He also wanted to see how these Asgardian Gods would fall during Ragnarok.

And what kind of rules of Power does such a Divine Realm have that can grant some extraordinary Power to the native aborigines.
These are all things he needs to refer to when he advances to True God and opens up his domain in the future.
Therefore, negotiating cooperation in advance is a surefire win-win situation for Xu Fu.
"Haha, sure, Xu Fu, Your Excellency, just ask. As long as it's not too outrageous, I swear on my honor as the King of Gods that I will definitely do it," Voden said with a big laugh, stroking his white beard.
At this time, Xu Fu could already be said to be an ally of Asgard, having tied up a future Ark for Asgard. Voden was still very happy.
"It's nothing, I just want my subordinates to learn about your underlying technology."
Xu Fu also put away the dissatisfaction he had deliberately put on.
Voden had revealed his kingly demeanor and was so straightforward with him, which could be said to be full of sincerity.
Naturally, there was no way Xu Fu would make many outrageous requests without knowing what was good for him.
And when Voden heard that Xu Fu's request was so easy, he immediately agreed.
If it were high-end and core technology, he would probably hesitate a few times, but since it was just underlying technology, Voden even thought it was not worth it for Xu 11 Fu.
At this time, he became even more fond of Xu Fu, this expert with unlimited potential in the future.
Even in the end, he indicated to Xu Fu that their Asgardian technology architecture was more unique, a combination of magic and traditional technology.
Xu Fu also readily expressed that there was no problem.
And why did Xu Fu need the underlying technology?
The reason was that with Tuesday, this newly developed AI brain, even with only underlying technology, it could infer many other things.
Perhaps, with integration, it might even surpass its predecessors.
You must know that compared to Monday, for Xu Fu, the technology and template application at that time were not mature enough, and in the end, it was more about combat effectiveness and companionship.
Tuesday, on the other hand, was what Xu Fu had improved, instilling all the Supreme Intelligence thinking algorithms on Blue Star, plus Xu Fu had specially added the improved Joker Thinking template.
Therefore, Tuesday can be said to be Xu Fu's greatest brain trust right now.
Of course, before making it, Xu Fu had already added the logic code at the very bottom that it could not betray himself, so there was no need to worry about the issue of loyalty.
Therefore, Xu Fu believed that after Tuesday studied Asgard's strange technology, it would definitely enrich his accumulation.
