Chapter 121: Trial
Everyone could see that Loki was stalling for time, but what he was delaying for, no one could guess.
"Loki has an army called Zetari, and they are not Asgardian armaments, and they don't know where they came from."
Asgard's diva Frigga had already discovered that Loki was not dead some time ago, but she tried to contact Loki, but he refused to respond.
So even though there was no Rainbow Bridge and war raged in Asgard, Heimdall didn't relax his search for Loki's whereabouts.
The "Pegasus Project" researched the energy leaked from the Rubik's Cube in the universe, which is equivalent to announcing to the whole universe that the space gem is on the earth-
This was discovered by those who were looking for it, and finally gave Loki the perfect opportunity to counterattack the planet that had given him a taste of defeat.
When Heimdall discovers that Loki and the Zetarians are conspiring to invade Earth, King Odin realizes that his adopted son will cause a big deal if left alone.
Therefore, Odin, who was awakened in advance by the battle between Thor and Loki from "Odin's Sleep", especially the collapse of the Rainbow Bridge, used the dark energy accumulated in Asgard to send Thor to Earth alone, regardless of his injuries.
Without the Rainbow Bridge, the Asgardian army could not support the Earth, and their prince had to send another prince to try to solve the problem.
And this time, in addition to catching Loki, Thor also has a mission, which is to obtain the Cosmic Rubik's Cube and return to Asgard to repair the Rainbow Bridge.
It's just that no one on Earth knows about this except Oaks.
"Loki intends to lead the Zetarians to invade Earth, and when it happens, he will become the king of Earth, and the Cosmic Rubik's Cube...... I guess that's supposed to be the Zetari for helping him. ”
Thor's information made everyone understand that Loki would definitely use the Cosmic Cube to open the space door again.
Tony and Banner have already determined what Loki needs based on Dr. Servig's notes and S.H.I.E.L.D. information to ensure that the portal does not collapse like last time.
Finally, Loki also needs a high-energy-density power supply to activate the Cosmic Rubik's Cube.
Now that Loki's needs have been analyzed, the next step is to locate the location of the Rubik's Cube in the universe, and gain insight into Loki's plan.
The whereabouts of Dr. Servig and Agent Barton are unknown.
The former is definitely with the Cosmic Rubik's Cube, but if you stop the latter, who is super mobile and is obviously responsible for the collection of materials, it will undoubtedly delay the opening of the portal.
Therefore, the Avengers are divided into three ways -
Tony and Banner are responsible for locating the Cosmic Cube based on Loki's scepter-matching gamma signals.
Steve and Thor are on guard and prepared for the unexpected.
Oakes and Natasha are in charge of finding Loki's bottom.
"I didn't expect to work together in such a situation, Agent Romanoff."
Oakes and Natasha walk in the passage to Loki's cell.
Natasha smiled and glanced at Oakes:
"Strictly speaking, the two of us are only one year old apart from each other are the same age, and the others except the uncle is a grandfather in his nineties, and there is an alien who has lived for more than 1,500 years."
"So it's not easy for the two of us to interrogate an alien who is also over 1,500 years old."
Oakes shrugged and pouted:
"And I'm not an agent, so why do I need to be involved in this?"
"It's an alien, you joined it when you dealt with his brother, and it worked well...... So this time I hope you can find something else. ”
Natasha gestured at her wrist and smiled strangely:
"And your vines are still tied to him, the director means, you can ...... when necessary. Well, continue to inflict the kind of mental blow on him in Stuttgart. ”
“……”
Oakes covered his face, what the hell is this called!
Although Oakes knew what Loki's plan was, he still had to do it, and Loki was actually a very interesting guy.
So......
"Hmph...... Not many people can sneak up on me yet. ”
When Loki turned around with a wicked smile, he saw two red-haired humans, a man and a woman, standing outside his cage.
"Wow, you're a good match."
"My dyed hair."
Natasha glanced at the odd-looking Oakes and shrugged her shoulders at Loki:
"He's all-natural."
"Actually, your original blonde hair is pretty good-looking."
Oakes coughed lightly:
"Is it because of the work?"
"That's right, it looks cold, and it's in line with the agent's positioning."
“……”
The corners of Loki's mouth twitched as he watched the two humans talk to themselves in front of him, and began to doubt life a little:
"Hey, don't you think that's rude?"
"Is there any politeness to Kei in the cage?"
Oakes spoke a word of Chinese that Loki didn't understand, and it seems that the Asgardians did only understand English.
"So now let's get to the official session - Lord Loki, what did you do to Barton?"
Natasha lowered her face, and it only took a moment to go from a mass lover to a black widow:
"He's one of the toughest people I've ever met, how did you control him?"
"Oh, don't be so ...... It's unbearable, I'm just expanding his thinking, which is unique to ordinary people...... Gift. ”
Loki seemed to be smiling happily, originally thinking that Natasha would use a beauty trick to get information after he was tortured.
"Oh, the gift...... Is it really merciful, is it because of the identity of 'God'? ”
Oakes chuckled and winked at Natasha, who nodded quietly and took a half-step back, concentrating on every detail of Loki's expression.
Loki's smile froze slightly, if he was able to gain a certain level of insight into human nature with his advanced magical cultivation, and if he could effectively deal with it through Hawkeye's understanding of Natasha......
To be honest, he has neither a thorough view nor any information about Oakes.
Because Hawkeye and Oaks hadn't seen each other a few times, New Mexico hadn't said a few words in total.
Moreover, this guy was the only guy he had seen on Earth who could do magic this time.
Beings who can master magic, in terms of mind, will not be weak.
"That makes sense, and not only that, but when I become the king of the earth, Agent Barton will get more."
Loki once again showed his trademark evil smile:
"Whoever follows me will get more ......"
"But now that you're a prisoner, you who want to be king don't plan to just stay until your men knock down the earth and put you on the throne, right?"
Oakes pinched his chin:
"We're old acquaintances, and we've learned a lot about Asgard.
Last time you tried to usurp the throne, and now it seems that you have failed, so even if you take care of the earth, have you ever thought about Asgard's punishment? ”
"Punishment? Asgard? Ha! ”
A strange look flashed in Loki's eyes:
"The throne was supposed to be mine...... The Rainbow Bridge was destroyed, destroyed by Thor himself......
Without the Cosmic Rubik's Cube, they could only send Thor down alone at most.
But this is meaningless - the planet is now isolated! ”
