Chapter 411: The Origin of Fear
Upstate New York, Avengers Headquarters.
The team of the Avengers, the Fantastic Four, and the Heavenly Sword gathered in the Hall of Avengers for a heated discussion about another catastrophe that has ushered in the plagued Earth.
"So it's all the hammer's fault." "In short, whoever picks up this hammer will become a puppet of the hammer and be controlled by that hammer." The hammer gives the host the power to defy the sky, but in essence, it is not the person wielding the hammer, but the hammer wielding the person...... That's probably what it means, right? Does anyone else want to add? β
"To be correct, not 'anyone' can pick up a hammer." Daisy chimed in, "Most people who have tried it can't pick it up. But the moment a certain person touches the hammer, it glows, and then defies the host's will and ties him to the hammer like a magnet. Unless someone with the corresponding special ability comes to your aid, you will never be able to get rid of this hammer. After a pause, she glanced at Wanda, "By the way, we have one of those who 'have the corresponding special ability' here. β
"So this thing is similar to the one in Thor's hand?" "I remember no one could pick up Thor's hammer when it fell. β
"yes, where did Thor, the god of thunder, go?" Gwen interjected, "I think it looks like a problem that needs him to get out of the way." Don't you all have his phone number? β
"It's been beaten, not in the service area." Sam said angrily, "Maybe the Asgardian signal isn't good." β
Gwen was shocked: "Does he really have a phone number?" β
Hulk snorted behind and rubbed his big green fist: "Hulk is the strongest anyway." β
The implication is that it doesn't make a difference who picks up the hammer, he can punch it anyway.
Clint squinted at him, "How do I remember that you didn't seem to take advantage of those hammer wielders?" β
Hulk yelled at him, "What do you want to fight?" The posture was quickly stopped by the surrounding teammates.
Reed Richards held his chin: "That hammer took control of Ben's body, I don't know how that was done. But if I could take a hammer and look into it, maybe I could find out how they work......"
"It's easy." Tony pointed at Wanda, "Our witch sister seems to have gotten her hands on quite a few of those things, you can ask her to borrow one." β
Wanda shook her head: "I'll have to ask the commander about this, only he can make the decision." β
To be honest, she wasn't a little comfortable handing over the hammer to someone else - who knows if it would suddenly catch someone else to be a puppet or something else. At the end of the day, none of them understood how the hammer worked, so she thought it was safer to quarantine before meeting Michael.
Tony frowned, a little displeased, "Then your commander - it's the Black Knight, right?" Where is he now? β
"I don't know." Wanda shook her head, "But he must have something important. β
"Okay. I know your boss is very powerful, and to be honest, there is a part of my heart that I personally admire him a little bit...... Only a little, not a lot. He deliberately emphasized this part, as if to emphasize that "I am not very far from him", "but now that he is not there...... He's given you the command, right? β
"Hmm."
"That means he trusts you to take on the responsibility, so of course he trusts your decision."
"Oh." Wanda understood, thought about it, and said, "Then I won't borrow it." β
Tony's face instantly darkened. It's good to say that it's been so long, but she said she wouldn't borrow it......
He was about to say something more, but was interrupted by a voice coming from the stereo surround sound in the hall.
"The hammer thing can be put away first."
The voice suddenly remembered and startled everyone. Tony was surprised to find that the projection device in the Hall of the Avengers had activated itself without his consent, casting the figure of the Black Knight in the center of the hall.
"How did you get into this system?" Tony said in surprise, "Jarvis? β
"The firewall is working fine, no intrusion alerts." Jarvis said mildly.
Normal is hell! So where did this guy come from?
It only took tens of millions to upgrade the security protocol of the Avengers headquarters last week, and it looks like it's been a toss again.
Michaelβor his projectionβignored Tony's surprise and said to everyone solemnly: "The matter of the hammer is not the point, the focus is on the person behind the scenes. β
"Are you back already?" Wanda asked.
Michael nodded, "I'm in Latvia right now, with Dr. Doom...... I've also brought back an expert who has already gone to you. She will explain to you the current situation on Earth and provide support. β
She? Wanda noticed the title.
The sound of high heels on the floor sounded. The crowd looked back and saw a seductively dressed witch walking into the hall with her blond hair as smooth as a waterfall.
Wanda almost jumped up in shock: "Amora!? β
Amora smiled and waved at her and winked, "Hi, little witch, long time no see." β
The magic of chaos was unleashed, like a rushing stream of water swimming through the hall. Wanda's pupils lit up red, and her red hair fluttered throughout the sword-rattling......
"Calm down, Scarlet Witch. It's okay, Amora is here to help. Michael said lightly.
"But ......" Wanda bit her lip and thought about it, but finally the magic on her body dissipated.
Except for a few people from the Heavenly Sword, the rest of the people had never seen Amora. The group looked at each other, and Tony asked, "Well, we haven't met, ma'am." But you ......"
"I'm a witch of God's Domain." Amola walked among the crowds, "I have come here to bring a message, a message about the fate of the earth. β
"Listen up." Rogers said.
Amola glanced at everyone: "I won't pretend to say that the situation still allows for optimism, because that's not the case. Even if it's an earth myth, I think you've heard of it...... Ragnarok, does the word have an impression? β
"I've heard Thor mention it." Sam scratched his head, "Is it a prophecy about the fall of the gods?" β
"Yes. Not only the gods, but even the realm of gods would be destroyed in that catastrophe. "That prophecy is true, a fate that cannot be escaped, and the gods will come to an end." The demon Surtr has returned, which is the best proof that the catastrophe began. Odin must have gotten the news that since the Asgardian army has not yet reached the Atrium, it means that he has abandoned the Atrium. It also means that your world is about to become the first casualty of the gods' war. β
"What do you mean?" Rogers asked, "Why did Odin give up on Earth?" β
Amola glanced at him.
"It's simple." She said, "Because of Odin he was afraid." He was afraid of the Great Serpent, the god who had been sealed in the atrium thousands of years ago...... Odin's own brother. β
