It was obvious that the one-eyed old man in front of him was Odin, the Allfather, exiled to Earth by Loki.
Even though Meng Ran had already guessed Odin's identity, he couldn't just blurt it out.
Sometimes, such displays of intelligence wouldn't earn you respect; instead, they could cause trouble.
After all, he couldn't explain the source of his information and analysis, so it was best not to show off.
Moreover, although Meng Ran knew Odin's identity, Odin didn't know that Meng Ran had guessed it.
This situation was actually beneficial for their upcoming conversation, as knowing both sides gave him a bit more initiative.
However, more than anything else, Meng Ran was curious about how Odin knew his true identity.
He was currently presenting himself as an ordinary person, but since Odin had stopped him, it meant he definitely had something to discuss.
Since there was something to discuss, Odin was definitely looking for the Evil Spirit, not a regular young man.
This situation indicated that Odin certainly knew his Evil Spirit identity. Otherwise, why would Odin, for no reason, chat with a random young passerby? Was it because he was handsome?
Meng Ran's mind was currently undergoing a brainstorm. Facing Odin's conversation about the Scenery, he was just making normal polite responses.
Finally, after chatting for a while and laying the groundwork, Odin finally got to the point.
He stopped looking at the scenery of the sea and turned his head, curiously sizing up Meng Ran with his one eye, and then said, "Do you want to know how I knew your identity? Evil Spirit."
Meng Ran squinted his eyes after hearing Odin's words, and then said softly, "I not only want to know how you knew my identity, but I also want to know who you are."
Hearing Meng Ran's question, Odin smiled and said, "Let me introduce myself first. My name is Odin. You should have an impression of this name."
Meng Ran nodded after hearing Odin's words and said, "Of course I have an impression. The King of the Gods in mythology."
Hearing Meng Ran's words, Odin continued, "That's right, it's that person from the myths."
Then he turned and looked at Meng Ran, and said with some curiosity, "It seems you're not surprised by this result, are you?"
Hearing Odin's words, Meng Ran secretly cursed in his heart, This old geezer is quite sensitive.
Although he was complaining in his heart, he still said calmly, "Just some guesses. After all, there aren't many people who can make me feel unfathomable, especially in terms of strength."
Odin just smiled lightly after hearing Meng Ran's explanation. He didn't press further but said softly, "I know you're curious how I knew your true identity. You don't have to worry, I'll tell you next. After all, the premise of cooperation is honesty, isn't it?"
Hearing Odin's words, Meng Ran nodded, waiting for his explanation. He was indeed quite curious about how his true identity was exposed.
Seeing Meng Ran nod, Odin continued, "Based on your human timekeeping, I first knew of your existence about 20 years ago."
"I have a friend, her name is the Ancient One, the Sorcerer Supreme of Earth."
"It was during a conversation with her that she mentioned your existence to me."
"She told me that a Supreme Treasure had suddenly appeared in our Universe."
"And with the emergence of this treasure, a variable would be born in the Universe, a variable that could affect our future."
"In the time that followed, we conducted detailed tracking and observation, and finally discovered through observation that the variable was you."
"Because of your appearance, the predetermined future that could originally be observed also began to fluctuate."
"At that time, we still didn't know whether this fluctuation was good or bad, or what kind of impact it would have on our Universe."
"However, after much consideration, the Ancient One decided to observe you first, to see what changes your growth would bring to our predetermined future."
"So, over these 20 years, the Sorcerer Supreme has often observed your growth and the changes in your future."
"In the past decade or so, the Ancient One told me that your impact on the future was negligible. Compared to before, this Universe hadn't changed much."
"Until a few years ago, she told me that our future had become blurred, and its trajectory could no longer be observed."
"Or rather, our future has deviated from its original course, and everything is now full of possibilities."
"All of this is because of you, because of your appearance, because of your growth."
Listening to Odin's words, Meng Ran's surprise never ceased.
He hadn't expected to be watched by two big shots from the very first day he was reborn.
Moreover, the time when the Ancient One said the future had become blurred, a few years ago, was precisely the time when he obtained the Venom System and began to slowly grow stronger.
Odin saw the thoughtful expression on Meng Ran's face and continued, "It seems you've already figured out what happened when the change began."
"That little guy inside you is indeed quite amazing."
Meng Ran had never felt so exposed before, like his underwear had been seen through, but he definitely felt it now facing Odin.
Fortunately, only Odin and the Ancient One knew. After all, these two big shots weren't evil villains, which was the last bit of comfort Meng Ran could find.
Meng Ran shook his head, clearing the chaotic thoughts in his mind, and then said to Odin, "So you and the Sorcerer Supreme knew of my existence a long time ago."
"So, what do you want to say to me, or what is this cooperation you mentioned earlier?"
Odin didn't answer immediately after hearing Meng Ran's words. Instead, he looked at the sea with a worried expression.
He sighed and said in a deep voice, "Since you know those myths about us, you must know the prophecy of Ragnarok."
"When Ragnarok comes, Asgard will be destroyed in a sea of fire."
"Once, to change this prophecy, I went through countless hardships to finally find the Eternal Flame, and brought it back to Asgard, placing it in the Treasure Vault."
"But even though I did all of that, the future in the prophecy didn't change at all because of my actions."
"In the end, I understood that this future couldn't be changed or avoided, so I stopped resisting."
Speaking of which, Odin withdrew his gaze from the distance, then turned and looked at Meng Ran, saying in a low voice.
"But until your appearance, until a few years ago when the Ancient One told me that our future had become blurred and full of infinite possibilities because of you, the fire in my heart to change the predetermined future of Ragnarok reignited."
