Chapter 31: Trying

Just moments after Saul and the others returned to Asgard via the Rainbow Bridge.

In New Mexico, the Destroyer lying on the ground was also shrouded in a pillar of light.

β€”β€”

Although he really wanted to talk to Thor, Leo knew that now was not the time.

Thor still has important family matters to go back to, and it is impossible to stay on Earth for too long.

Put the Cosmic Cube back into the instrument and let it continue working.

Leo turned around and flew back home.

This matter is over, and I can wait for the results of the Rubik's Cube work with peace of mind.

For all this that happened, Leo had his own little Jiujiu in his heart.

As for why not use the Rubik's Cube to throw the Destroyer directly into the depths of the universe, it is because such a result is not allowed by Loki and Odin, with Heimdall who can see everything in the universe and the Rainbow Bridge that can travel between the universe at will, the Destroyer will eventually return to Earth.

Or why not go straight to Asgard and beat up Loki, Leo said, it's not impossible, as long as you can withstand the wrath of the god-king Odin when he wakes up.

As another example, why not simply teleport Thor with The Destroyer. First, Sol can be regarded as his friend no matter what he says, although he hasn't been together for a long time, but in fact, Leo also likes this blonde muscular hunk, so he can't ignore Sol's feelings;

Second, I really want to have two moves with the Destroyer, at least I can see some of the strength gap between myself and those top gods, and it's really hard to find such a good sandbag.

Shaking his head and not thinking about it anymore, Leo knew that he had made the best choice for him.

β€”β€”

And in distant Asgard.

Odin's bedchamber.

The Spear of Eternity shot out a burst of golden light, blasting Thor straight away.

Loki rode Pegasi all the way to the control hub of the Rainbow Bridge.

He's going to destroy Jom Haydon completely!

And Thor came back to his senses, wielding Thor's hammer, and quickly rushed here.

But it was too late, and the Rainbow Bridge's exterminating assault on Jom Haydon had already begun.

"Why are you doing that?"

"I will prove to my father that I am worthy to be his son. When he wakes up, he'll know that I saved him. I'm going to wipe out that monster race once and for all, and then become the true heir to the throne! ”

Loki said through gritted teeth.

He swung Gungnir and knocked Thor to the ground.

"I've never been a lover of thrones! I just want me to be equal to you in the eyes of my father! ”

After a fierce verbal battle, Thor finally made a move on Loki.

In the movie, Loki, armed with the Eternal Spear, can go back and forth with Thor.

Here, however, Loki isn't as much nerfed as he is in the movies.

In reality, Loki has always been the number one mage of the Nine Realms! He is proficient in a range of powerful spells, including ice magic, illusion magic, space magic, mind-reading magic, and energy control magic. And as the god of Asgard, he also has a transcendent physique that can live two moves with Thor

Enraged, Loki fights Thor hand-to-hand with Gungnir.

Hard frost enveloped Thor's feet, causing him to lose his balance by surprise, followed by the Eternal Spear.

A golden scratch appeared on Thor's armor, and dripping blood poured out of it.

Earnestly, Thor broke free from his restraints and smashed it with a hammer.

Loki hurriedly fended up holding Gungnir sideways in front of him, but was still shocked by the powerful blow and flew out.

Thor then took advantage of the victory and pursued, flying away.

But Thor's hammer smashed into the air, and all that lay there was only Loki's vision.

Kicked in the back, Thor stumbled forward, throwing Thor's hammer between the lightning and flint.

β€œduang”

The hammer slammed into Loki's chest.

The Eternal Spear slammed into the ground, and Loki held himself out to keep it from flying out again.

Stabilizing his body, golden rays once again emitted from the tip of the spear.

Thor dodged in embarrassment.

Unlike facing the Destroyer's attack, this time he didn't use a hammer to carry this burst of energy.

Because Thor knows the horror of the Eternal Spear, this is a king-level artifact.

The Storm Tomahawk had only reached the same level as the Eternal Spear, and Mjolnir might have melted in the face of such an attack.

Thankfully, Loki isn't the true owner of the Eternal Spear, and he's far from being able to wield the full power of Gungnir.

Eventually, after a tough battle, Loki was subdued by Thor.

β€”β€”

Feeling that the rainbow bridge was smashed by his eldest son, Odin in the dormitory finally couldn't lie down.

Driven by the vastness of divine power, Odin appeared in front of the broken rainbow bridge almost instantly.

Grab Thor and Loki, who are about to fall into the sea of nothingness.

Forget it, the rainbow bridge can be repaired if it's gone, and it's good that the sons have grown up.

Looking at the shattered rainbow bridge, Odin comforted himself in his heart.

Seeing Odin appear, Thor smiled reluctantly, and Loki shouted to Odin with tears in his eyes:

"I almost made it, Father! I could have done it! For you, for everyone. ”

"No, Loki." But his father's reply made him desperate.

Unleashing the handle of the Eternal Spear, Loki let himself fall into the endless sea of stars.

"No!" Thor let out a sad snort.

Odin's eyes also showed a hint of sadness: "No......"

β€”β€”

In the blink of an eye, another few months passed.

Leo on Earth has not been idle.

After a battle with the Destroyer, coupled with his natural growth over the past few months, his speed has exceeded Mach 27!

Leo felt stronger.

It's just a pity that no one came to practice with me.

Back at base, after several months of non-stop exploration of the universe, the team has made considerable progress so far.

They managed to find a location that was suspected to be a weak point in the barrier!

But the research on tunnels is not mature enough.

Because what Leo wanted was not just to teleport to that location, but to use the power of the Cosmic Cube to break through the barrier again.

And this requires further research.

So, the excited Leo pulled Tony to live in the Cosmic Cube research base day and night.

β€”β€”

After some time.

Tony and Leo stand in front of the tiled-blue portal that arcs of light.

"Do you really think this thing is reliable?" Tony asked suspiciously.

"Give it a try and we'll see." Leo replied with his arms crossed.

After not seeing Thor for so long, Leo knew that the Rainbow Bridge should still be destroyed as in the original plot.

Then after Loki led the army of Zirita to invade New York, Thor must have taken the Cosmic Cube back to repair the Rainbow Bridge.

Sol didn't ask himself for the Cosmic Rubik's Cube before, firstly, for the sake of his relationship with Leo, and secondly, now Asgard really doesn't need the Cosmic Rubik's Cube.

But next time it will be different.

Will Leo give or not give when the time comes?

So I had to try it now, hoping to build the tunnel before then and get back before Loki came to Earth.

Moreover, Leo is also fully prepared.

He looked at the gadget in his hand that radiated a ghostly energy.

"This is an energy reserve and positioning teleportation device that we have created based on the characteristics of the energy of the Cosmic Rubik's Cube. It's full of spatial energy, and if you get lost or fail after entering the tunnel, this little thing can bring you back. ”

"Of course, if you do go to another universe, you can come back with it."

After saying that, Tony shook his head and added.

"It should, maybe, probably."

Yes, this little thing is where Leo dares to try.

After all, there are still many disasters here, and even if you really return to the original universe, it is impossible to ignore this universe.

I'm sure I'll come back after settling everything down.,By the way, I'll study how to travel freely between the two universes.。

Although the space gems in the Cosmic Cube will fail in other universes, this return device is full of pure energy, and there is no such thing as failure, so Leo doesn't have to worry about this problem.

"Are you really sure ......"

However, before Tony could finish his words, the black cloak had disappeared into the tunnel.

"May you succeed, my friend." Tony prayed silently for Leo.

β€”β€”

β€œduang!”

Leo only felt that his body was completely torn apart and reassembled, and the intense pain made him snort in Superman's body.

Immediately after, it was as if I had hit an invisible wall. Behind him, the energy from the Cosmic Cube was constantly squeezing Leo's body, trying to make him go further.

However, the output of energy did not seem to be enough to support Leo to shatter the wall, and Leo was also under tremendous pressure under the impact of these two forces.

Eventually, Leo's body could no longer support it, and he rolled his eyes and passed out.
