Odin, the king of the gods, attached a magic spell to Thor's hammer, making it an "untouchable thing" in the eyes of ordinary people.

Although the precise corresponding conditions are not clear, from the characteristics of the person who can pick it up, the so-called "qualifications" are nothing more than the characteristics of justice, perseverance, protection, sacrifice, etc.

But not all of these qualities are possessed by Oakes.

He has a heart for justice, and he is resolute enough to guard, but at the point of sacrifice......

He had already died in his previous life, but the things behind him that he didn't have to think about anymore had troubled him for quite a long time.

So in this life, he has to firmly control his destiny.

The unshakable hammer of Thor proves his position in himself.

However, this did not prevent him from clearly perceiving the terrifying thunder power contained in that hammer.

This is a powerful weapon made of Uru metal, and the endless magic of thunder makes it indestructible-

Unless the opponent has much more mana than it, it is almost indestructible in most cases.

But the average person is not even qualified to perceive this power.

The reason why Oakes can feel the existence of this power is precisely because of his mastery of balance spells.

He also has a lot of experience in inducing the power of thunder.

"Truly amazing creation......"

The hammer of Thor in Oakes' eyes is different from what Coulson and they see.

In addition to the hammer head made of Uru metal, the hammer handle of Mölnir is made of a very special type of wood.

Oakes could clearly perceive that on the handle of the hammer, although insignificant, it did exist, and it belonged to the deep natural breath of plants—

Have no bottom!

In this world, theoretically......

The source of the legendary hammer handle material, the "World Tree", is supposed to be a cosmic phenomenon without a substance.

Could it be some other exotic tree species?

"Your judgment is right, this thing should indeed have an owner."

Oakes closed his eyes in front of the hammer for a long time before he temporarily suppressed his doubts in his heart and opened his eyes:

"Coulson, I think you have something to do."

"Did you find anything, Consultant Oakes?"

Coulson was in good spirits, and sure enough, he was worthy of Mr. Consultant, and he found a problem when he first came?

However, could it be that this hammer is like an animal, and Mr. Consultant can sense its thinking?

That's, isn't it......

"This hammer has the breath of its owner on it, and there is no doubt that it is the breath of intelligent beings."

Oakes' serious nonsense made the corners of Coulson's eyes jump:

"Because hundreds of people have tried to pull it up."

And that includes all of us and yourself.

If we hadn't stopped it in time, I'm afraid the hammer handle would have been pulped by the time you came.

The breath of a god-like intelligent being......

"But Coulson, I can say responsibly that this breath is not that of the intelligent creatures of the earth, that is, of humans.

You know I'm sensitive to the breath of life...... I can even perceive a wound on the right index finger of the two subordinates behind you, the one on the left. ”

Coulson raised an eyebrow and turned to look at his subordinate—

He wears a glove in his right hand.

"Uh...... Indeed, sir. ”

The corner of the black-clothed man's mouth twitched, and he took off the glove of his right hand, and there was indeed a wound on his index finger:

"I got scratched when I installed the equipment yesterday, so I found gloves and put them on."

“……”

Coulson silently turned around: "What are we going to do?" ”

Oakes wasn't exactly blinded either.

The hammer does have Thor's magic remaining, his own thunder power.

Because up to now, Thor has relied on the power of Thor's hammer to guide the power in his body, and he can't take the initiative to release the power of thunder in his body.

Although Thor has now been sealed by Odin with his power and has become a mortal body, Odin has not deprived him of his power.

That's just to scare him.

If he was close enough to Thor, Oakes could indeed use the power of Thor's hammer to determine his identity.

It's just that it can't be explained with Coulson.

"One more thing......"

Oakes returned to Coulson and whispered:

"I heard that you confiscated a group of observation equipment from folk astronomy enthusiasts in the morning?"

"That's right, because on the night of the incident, they were observing not far from the area—

Among them was Dr. Banner's former colleague, astrophysicist Dr. Eric Servig. ”

When Coulson said this, he smiled bitterly:

"It's just that they don't seem to understand what we're doing."

“…… Nonsense, what's the difference between your approach and that of robbers, although you pay for it, you have to know that for those real scientists, no amount of money can be exchanged for the equipment and precious data that you have modified yourself. ”

Glancing at Coulson, Oakes complained:

"If you did the same thing with me back then, believe it or not, how tall is the grass on your grave now?"

“…… I'll apologize when it's over. ”

Coulson's smile was even more bitter, too, the guy in front of him was a ruthless man who wiped Obadai's neck in front of Tony, and he was not the same kind of person at all as Dr. Servig.

But then they found out that the cowardly doctor knew Dr. Banner.

Not only that, but it seems that he also has a relationship with a former important figure in S.H.I.E.L.D.

"What's the nearest town?"

Hearing Oakes' question, Coulson came back to his senses:

"It's Furubridge, Advisor, Dr. Servig is there, are we going to lock down the town?"

"That's too much movement, investigate secretly - see if there are any unknown people who have suddenly appeared recently."

Oakes pointed to Thor's hammer, which was still crooked on the ground:

"Since it's a weapon of intelligent beings, it's hard to connect it with non-humanoid creatures, right?

If you arrive in a strange place, what is the first thing you do? ”

"Hide, gather intelligence."

Coulson's face was clear:

"Mr. Advisor, you mean that the owner of the hammer may be hiding in the crowd? But there was such a big movement at that time......"

"If he still has the ability to cause such a big commotion, why hasn't there been any movement at all these days?"

Although Oakes knows very well that Thor's guy is a reckless man now, it is completely impossible to hide and collect intelligence......

But at least this is a reason for S.H.I.E.L.D. to monitor Guqiao Town and avoid casualties in the future.

"Secretly prepare the rescue team, everything must be prepared for the worst, if it is Pendragon who comes, draw his sword in the stone......"

Oakes looked at Coulson's face and nodded:

"So to him, are we humans Saxons?"

“…… I understood, so I went and prepared. ”

By collecting atmospheric observations, S.H.I.E.L.D. has confirmed beyond any doubt that the hammer is coming from outside the atmosphere.

In other words, there is an extremely high probability that this thing came from an extraterrestrial civilization.

Oakes' words prove that this hammer has an owner, and it is not yet an Earth human.

What extraterrestrial life thinks of earthlings is completely out of the control of S.H.I.E.L.D.

The only thing Coulson could do was to ensure that in case of conflict, the people of Furubashi Town would be evacuated in time.

But as Oakes said, you can't alarm the unknown target in advance, so you can only do it secretly.

"Consultant...... Will this unknown target be in line with our human aesthetics? ”

Dr. Banner was about to arrive, and Coulson, who had come to greet him, was a little worried about whether he could judge the target from his appearance.

Oakes twitched the corners of his mouth and touched his chin:

“…… Maybe it's like a shocking male protagonist? ”
