Chapter 1861: The Madman's Journey (37)
Loki wasn't locked up in a room alone, there was a lifting device in the middle of the hall, and Stark had just raised the cage, so he was watching like a zoo animal, in the hall where everyone was.
The railing of the energy cage uses the energy circuit in the devouring engine, and the strength is very high, and Loki keeps hammering the railing, but the railing does not move.
Although he found that the Thor in front of him was different from the one he knew, he just thought that Thor might have gone to Earth to change something, so he still shouted, "Damn Thor! How dare you set a trap for me, you will never be approved by the Father of the Gods, and you will never be ......"
With a "bang", the energy railing disappeared.
Loki watched in disbelief as the only barrier between himself and Thor disappeared, and then he realized that the cage rails were protecting him.
The pressure of facing this Thor is incomparably greater, even more than Loki facing Odin alone, Thor stares at him so coldly, Loki's vicious words are all blocked in his throat, and he can't spit out half a sentence.
"You...... You ......" Loki looked a little dazed, even a little frightened, and it took him a few seconds before he reacted.
It wasn't long ago that he had learned the secret of his life from Odin, and he had confronted the Father of the Gods with all his anger and grievances, and that sentiment had not dissipated.
Feeling Thor's cold attitude, Loki couldn't help but be even more angry, didn't they even pretend? Do they can't wait to kill themselves, just like they killed Laufey?
"Thor, no matter what the hell you're up to, I'll let you know it's awesome!" Loki snapped out, his instinct for self-preservation fully aroused, trying to make the other party retreat with a more aggressive attitude, "You should be ashamed of what you did, you made a fuss about Jotunheim, disgraced Asgard, and the Father of the Gods will not forgive you!! ”
"I know why I'm messing around Jotunheim, and you know better than I do, Loki." Thor just said calmly, "Another little prank of yours, stop doing it." ”
"Why do you order me?!"
"Whoosh-bang!"
A spear appeared behind Loki's back, accompanied by a sharp sound of breaking through the air, and the spear cut a graceful arc in the air, like a golf swing, knocking Loki to the ground from behind with a "bang".
Loki was stunned, he instinctively wanted to get up, and the next second the spear was across his neck, crushing him to the ground, leaving Loki's side face tightly pressed against the cold floor.
Loki's eyes flashed with tears, he had never been treated so savagely by Thor, and the biggest conflict that broke out between their brothers was just arguing in front of the three warriors of Asgard, even if Loki disrupted Thor's battle plan, Thor would never reprimand him in front of the soldiers.
But now in front of so many strangers, Thor acted like he didn't want to talk nonsense with him, as if he were just an ordinary soldier in the barracks who had made a mistake, which was quite an Asgardian treatment.
In front of the father of the gods, first ask whether to surrender, and then ask who is right and who is wrong, no matter what kind of lawsuit, as long as it is in front of Odin, there can be no reasonable party, because disturbing the god king itself is a great offense.
Now Thor gave Loki this illusion, he continued the instinct he had cultivated in Asgard since he was born, and he didn't dare to argue with Thor about why he was here and why he was locked up in a cage, he instinctively felt that he had to pay for the anger of the strong.
"Thor...... Thor! Loki's hand clenched into a fist, then opened again, nervously looking at the ground in front of him, the green tendons on the back of his hand were clearly visible, and he was almost pleading: "Thor, let go of me, Thor......"
The cold touch of the spear against his neck frightened him, but what scared him even more was that Thor knew what he had done in Jotunheim, that it was actually his conspiracy, but he didn't feel angry anymore, it wasn't revenge at all, he just seemed to be arguing with him.
This feeling made Loki feel like his heart was being torn apart.
"Hmmm", a green figure appeared in the hall, and Loki's eyes widened as he watched his other identical self walk towards Thor.
Another Loki, who suddenly appeared, put away his staff, bent down and touched Thor's with the corner of his forehead, which, according to Asgardian etiquette, meant that he was about to bring bad news and that he needed to ask for Thor's forgiveness.
Thor reached out and touched Loki's shoulder, asking him to speak directly, and Loki shook his head, sighed and said, "Let him run, Natasha is dealing with another murderer." ”
"So there are indeed two murderers?"
Loki nodded, remembering what had happened when he had just left the Devouring Engine and headed for Earth in this universe.
Seeing Thor's abnormality in this universe, Loki immediately teleported to Thor's side and checked Thor, but the magic check had no effect, and Loki had a trace of suspicion.
Compared to Thor, Loki is much more proficient in magic, and there are many ways to make people go berserk in pain but not find the slightest external injury, such as magic curses.
Loki suspects that Thor is cursed, but he needs to find out which one it is, so he travels to Asgard to find out what Thor has been doing recently.
Everything in Asgard can't escape Heimdall's eyes, but Loki is also a real Loki, and Heimdall just wonders what Loki is doing in and out of Asgard so often, but it doesn't stop this later Loki.
So, Loki staged a trick in Odin's palace, and the moment he made a bright light, he used his power to bind Loki in this universe, and sent back to the Star-Swallowing Engine, and he pretended to be Loki in this universe and left Odin's palace.
He first went to Thor's dormitory, and asked a few soldiers in the martial arts arena who were friendly with Thor, and they said that the biggest mess Thor had caused recently was to go to Jotunheim to make a big fuss, and he had never left Asgard.
Then the problem must have been in the land of giants, where Loki came to Jotunheim and met his so-called biological father, Laufey.
In fact, Loki has already seen Laufi in his own universe, but he knows more than Loki in this universe, Odin did not tell Loki in this universe, in fact, Loki was abandoned by the frost giant, if it weren't for this, Odin would not have picked him up and raised him.
In this case, Loki has no feelings for Laufey, and the large set of words that Laufey prepared to divide Loki and Odin did not come in handy at all, and Loki knocked him out with a staff.
Loki looked around, and sure enough, he found something unusual, a strange power that did not belong to the Frost Giants surrounding the palace, and it seemed that someone else had arrived before him, and it was possible that they had arrived before Thor.
Loki suspects that Laufey is under influence, so he doesn't trust him at all, but no one else can ask for information, so he wakes Lauphy awake anyway.
Loki didn't listen to a word of Laufey's so-called feud, but he keenly captured the key information, and Lauphy repeatedly mentioned that the Frost Giants' treasure "Ice Box" had been taken away by Odin, and Loki should have snatched it back.
Loki knew that the Ice Crate that Laufey said was in Odin's Vault, but when he infiltrated Odin's Treasury to get the Ice Crate, he found that the power on the artifact had disappeared without a trace.
Loki immediately made a guess that someone had influenced Laufey's sanity, learned about the Ice Box from him, and infiltrated Odin's treasury to steal the energy.
Combined with the anomaly of Thor's in this universe, it is not difficult to guess that the opponent's next target is likely to be Thor's hammer.
Loki's first reaction was, of course, to find the Ancient One, after all, the Supreme Mage was a Supreme Mage in any universe, and now that a strange guy on Earth had mixed in, the Ancient One must be responsible.
But after coming to Kama Taj, Loki learned that the Ancient One was investigating the murderer of his eldest disciple and was not on Earth at the moment.
After Loki's inquiry, he learned that the next Supreme Mage, Stephen Strange, had died mysteriously a few months ago, and his whole body had been turned into a dried corpse, and his whole body energy and vitality had been drained.
Loki immediately thought of the previous multiverse Strange serial murders, and it seems that this universe was also one of the victims.
Then it is not difficult to see who is making trouble behind the scenes, and even the energy in the artifact is not spared, and the black strange is probably at the end of the road chased by a group of ancient ones.
In that case, Loki certainly couldn't let him get his way, and on a dark and windy night, he went to the office of the director of S.H.I.E.L.D. and met with Nick Fury.
He did not reveal his origins, but said that he had come here in search of Thor's hammer and planned to make a deal with humans.
Nick summoned Natasha here, but Natasha was actually Loki's own person, and the two visitors from the other universe sang and harmonized, and developed a fishing plan against the mastermind behind the scenes.
Loki guessed that the mastermind behind the scenes was not strong enough to directly absorb the power of all the artifacts, otherwise it would be impossible for so many artifacts in Odin's treasury to survive.
Loki, who has been in contact with artifacts, knows that most artifacts have fixed owners, and the owner of the artifact will impose seals on them, and only when the seals are lifted can the power be used at will.
The mastermind behind the scenes was able to obtain the power of the Ice Box, most likely obtained permission from the delirious Laufey, and he may have been staring at Thor to steal the energy of Thor's hammer the moment Thor obtained Thor's hammer approval and the moment the seal of Thor's hammer was lifted.
Loki and Nick made an agreement that Loki would completely lift the seal of Thor's hammer so that anyone could pick it up, and humans could use this power to solve problems for themselves, but they had to cooperate with Loki to pretend to let Thor gain approval, so as to trick the thief out.
Loki, who knew Thor better, thought that Thor, who was in this universe, might propose to S.H.I.E.L.D. to try to get Thor's hammer, but they didn't expect that Thor would choose to infiltrate S.H.I.E.L.D. to find trouble with Natasha.
This is not at all in line with Thor's upright personality, and it also makes Loki a little more wary of who is behind the scenes, and it seems that he is very good at influencing the minds of others.
found that Thor and they came to S.H.I.E.L.D., Nick had to make an emergency dispatch, the three warriors of Asgard and Thor were actually not the pieces of material that sneaked in, and with their stealth skills, it was impossible to touch all the way to the bottom of the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents' apartment without being discovered, but Nick said hello and asked the agents not to stop them.
Nick didn't have time to inform Natasha, but Natasha was able to adapt and sing a duet with Loki.
Just as the purple light flashed above Thor's arm, Loki immediately raised his staff, and a ray of light hit Thor's arm.
Thor was knocked straight away, but the power was very cunning, and instead of fleeing outward, it hit Thor in the heart again, and Thor began to roll on the ground in pain again.
“…… That's the way it is. Loki lowered his eyes and said, "That may be a curse of substance, but he took Thor as a hostage, and Thor has now lost his divine power and can't resist, I hesitated for two seconds, I was a step too late, and he ran away." ”
