Chapter 172: The Weak Chicken's Thor and ......
On the border of New Mexico, near a small town called Pointe Antigor, a humble base defending Thor's hammer is located.
This base was built by S.H.I.E.L.D. borrowing the local government garrison, originally to survey the origin and usefulness of the hammer-shaped thing in the center of the base, but because of a premeditated operation, it is now ......
The base is completely owned by the Holy White Council, which is under the command of Earls.
As night fell, dark clouds obscured the sky, and there was no trace of the stars or the moon in the entire night sky.
At this time, in a conference room-like place in this base, Earls was sitting quietly on the main seat, looking around at everyone, and then slowly opened his mouth, and a low and solemn voice immediately reached the ears of everyone present.
Turning to look at the young man sitting on his left, Earls opened his mouth and asked, "Rayleigh, do your men control all this base?" I think you know what I mean, we still need this base to function properly for the time being. β
"It's all under control, Speaker."
The young man named Rayleigh nodded, and replied with great respect: "Except for the dozen or so people we drove out, I have already conducted psychic transmission on all the other people in this base, and I think they should still be very loyal in a short time." β
"Good, you're doing a good job."
Hearing Rayleigh's answer, Earls smiled faintly at his chin, then quickly turned his head to look to the other side, and asked the person sitting on this side, "Professor Singh, Professor Anlot, the base has been stabilized, and you can now go and study that hammer accordingly." β
Following Earls's gaze, I saw two middle-aged men and women in white research coats sitting there quietly, and when Earls turned his head to look at them just now, the two of them immediately met Earls's gaze.
"Okay, Speaker."
After listening to Earls's words, the two of them nodded, and then Professor Anlot, who was sitting a little in front of him, continued to speak: "Our research team is trying to come up with some results in the near future. β
"I hope so."
Earls smiled and nodded, and then saw his hands on the table in front of him, and he stood up.
Glancing around at the few people standing up on the left and right, Earls waved his hand and continued to speak, "Okay, you ...... now"
But before he could finish speaking, the sharp and loud sirens that kept sounding in the base instantly reached everyone's ears.
"Woo woo ......" "woo woo ......"
Hearing the alarm, the faces of everyone in the conference room couldn't help but change suddenly, and at this moment, a small transmitter pinned to Rayleigh's collar also quickly transmitted the report of his subordinates.
"Sir, someone has invaded...... Someone invaded the base ......"
But the voice of the person on the other end of the transmitter quickly cut off after saying this.
Earls's brows couldn't help but furrow quickly, and he hurriedly commanded Rayleigh who was standing beside him: "Hurry up and mobilize your men, and be sure to find this intruder for me as quickly as possible." β
Knowing that the situation was urgent, Rayleigh didn't say much, nodded heavily to Earls, and quickly pushed open the door and ran out of the conference room.
Earls also walked out slowly after Rayleigh left, but although he had been frowning slightly, his expression did not seem to be very nervous, because Earls believed that Rayleigh, who had sub-light speed, should be able to deal with an intruder who was not able to do anything about himself.
But what Earls didn't know was that the identity of the intruder was not as simple as he thought.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
About ten or twenty minutes later, Earls, who had been notified by Rayleigh, went to the small room where the intruder was being held, knowing that the intruder had been successfully captured.
As soon as he entered the detention room, the image of a young man with blond hair, golden eyebrows, and a golden beard came into Earls's eyes, and Earls frowned when he saw the young man, for he sensed a danger from the young man that he had never felt before.
Although the blonde man who sat quietly and looked at the detention room looked extremely sad, this inexplicable sense of danger was still noticed by Earls.
"Huh? β¦β¦ How could a guy who could easily be tackled by Rayleigh make me feel dangerous? β
However, after thinking for a while, Earls felt that something was wrong, so that when he looked at the blonde man with his head down and his face full of sadness, his eyes couldn't help but look a little strange.
Staring at the blonde man not far in front of him, Earls was silent for a long time, while the blonde man still hung his head and didn't know what he was thinking, as if he didn't notice Earles' arrival at all.
It was a long time before Earls spoke quietly, "Tell me about yourself, intruder." β
The blonde man who heard the voice glanced up at Earls slightly, but he didn't say anything, and quickly lowered his head.
Seeing that the blonde man seemed to treat himself as air, Earls couldn't help but feel a little unhappy in his heart, and the brow that had just stretched out furrowed again again, and his voice became a little louder.
"What's your name, who you are, and what you're breaking into this base for?"
Earls's eyes suddenly widened a little, and he roared in a low voice, "Hurry up and answer me!" β
This time, however, the blonde man ignored Earls even more, not even raising his head after Earls growled.
"Good, good......"
The slight displeasure on Earles' face couldn't help but be a little worse, staring at the blonde man who was sitting quietly with his head down, and continued to open his mouth and say, "It seems that you are not ready to answer my question, but it doesn't matter......"
"It's just that I do need you to stay here a few more days."
After saying this, Earl turned and walked towards the door with a cold face, but just as he was about to step out of the door, Earls's footsteps suddenly stopped.
After settling his figure, Earls turned his head and looked deeply at the blonde man, and finally said, "When you are ready to confess to me, you can inform the people who are guarding the door twenty-four hours a day, and I think I will be happy to hear the purpose of your visit." β
"Bang~~~"
As soon as he stepped out, the door closed again.
Ears, who walked out of the door, looked a little gloomy, and stood in place for a few seconds before turning to leave.
But just as Earls had walked a few dozen steps forward, he suddenly felt a strange wave coming from the room where the blonde man was being held.
"What's going on?"
Earls's face changed suddenly, and he quickly stopped, and quickly turned around and walked towards the room of the blonde man who had just looked at him.
Earls's figure flickered away in place, and by the time he reappeared, he had already crossed a few dozen meters to the door of the detention cell.
But just as Earls was looking into the room, he found that there was an extra person in the room at some point.
I saw a tall man wearing a tawny trench coat with short medium black hair combed to the back of his head standing in front of the blonde man, looking at the appearance of the two, it seemed that they were talking about something.
Thinking that this black-haired man had come here silently under the heavy guards of the base, Earls's pupils couldn't help but shrink suddenly.
Earls pushed open the door and entered the detention cell.
The black-haired man, on the other hand, turned his head to meet his gaze with a faint smile, as if he had already noticed Earles.
"Who are you?" Earls asked aloud, looking a little serious.
But the black-haired man who was standing in front of Earls at this time did not answer his question, only to see him smile and look Earls up and down, and his lips opened and closed slightly.
"I didn't expect a mortal to be able to detect my coming......"
The black-haired man didn't seem to be worried about his current situation in the center of the base, and looked at Earls as if nothing happened, and said slowly.
"Mortal?"
Hearing the black-haired man's words, Earls seemed to have obtained some key information from it, frowned slightly, and asked tentatively, "Are you from Asgard?" β
"Huh?"
When he heard Earls mention the name "Asgard", the black-haired man couldn't help but be a little surprised, and asked, "You actually know Asgard?" β
As soon as the words fell, the black-haired man glanced deeply at Earls again, and said in a deep voice, "Mortal, you seem to be very different from the rest of this kingdom. β
Locked in by the dark-haired man's deep eyes, Earls couldn't help but feel a sudden chill on his body, huh...... It's like the feeling of ordinary people being targeted by some kind of beast.
It's just that now Earls can only hold back this cold and piercing feeling, because the black-haired man's words just now have completely proved that he is from Asgard, one of the nine kingdoms.
"Asgardians, why did you come to Earth? Could it be ......"
Earls was about to ask a question, but before he could say a word, he stopped abruptly, for a flash of inspiration had just occurred in his mind, and something that surprised him greatly.
A pair of eyes suddenly widened, Earls suddenly stretched out his hand to the blonde man who was still restrained in the seat, and exclaimed in great surprise: "You are all from Asgard, so he should be Thor, the god of thunder, right?" β
"Thor?"
Hearing Earls's exclamation, the blonde man who had been silent all this time finally spoke up.
I saw that he pursed his lips as if he was in memory, and then said in a loud voice: "Although my name is indeed Thor, Thor seems to be the honorific title given to me by you Midgardians a long time ago. β
Hear the blonde man, oh...... That was Thor's answer, and Earls couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief while being horrified.
It was at this point that Earls finally figured out where the feeling of danger he had felt before came from, and it was because...... It turns out that this guy is the so-called god of thunder in Norse mythology!
"I see......"
After figuring out the true identity of the blonde man, Earls guessed what he was doing at this base.
Earls nodded thoughtfully, stared at Thor, and asked, "It seems that you broke into the base to get your hammer back?" β
"No ......"
Thor suddenly had a look of loss on his face, took a deep breath, and said loudly, "Now MjΓΆrnir doesn't belong to me anymore. β
"My father has stripped me of my divine powers, and has also removed me from mastering MjΓΆlnir, so I am now a mortal through and through."
"I was deprived of my divine power by Odin, and I was also disqualified from using Thor's hammer, so that's the case, no wonder my lord said in the revelation that Thor's state is not very good."
Because of Thor's answer, Earls finally understood the revelation that Jehovah had given him that day, and after feeling Thor's heartfelt loss, he couldn't help but look at him deeply with pity.
However, at this time, Earls still had countless doubts in his heart, and after a little consideration, he immediately asked out loud: "But why did you come to the earth after you had no divine power, is it ......?"
Only this time, Earles's words had just begun, and he was instantly interrupted by the black-haired man standing aside.
"That's it!"
I don't know why, I saw that the black-haired man suddenly had a dissatisfied look on his face, glanced at Earls coldly, and then opened his mouth and said: "Mortal, we just have a little interest in you and casually answered some of your questions, but now ......"
As he spoke, the black-haired man's face suddenly sank, "We need to leave." β
"Leave?"
Earls couldn't help laughing, turned his head to look at the black-haired man, and sneered, "Don't you realize that this place is surrounded by our people? If you don't answer my question, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you two to leave today. β
"Really?"
However, after hearing Earles's words, the black-haired man's face did not change at all, and he still had the same breezy appearance, on the contrary, there was a hint of urgency in his eyes when he looked at Earls at this time.
"Do you think you mortals can really stop me? And ......"
As he was talking, a strange look suddenly appeared on the black-haired man's face, "Are you sure your people have surrounded us?" β
Seeing the look of the black-haired man, Earls couldn't help but have a bad premonition in his heart, and after listening to his words, Earles's complexion changed suddenly.
Using his abilities to look around, Earls suddenly found that the area was empty except for himself, Thor, and the black-haired man in front of him.
Earls's body tensed suddenly, and he stared at the black-haired man with great vigilance, and asked in a loud voice:
"What exactly did you do?"
