Chapter 290: The Coming Enemy

"You seem to ······ Very excited! ”

After observing the excitement in the depths of Father Grace's eyes, Loki couldn't help but narrow his eyes slightly.

He said that the purpose of the army was actually to further deter the strange guy in front of him, but for some reason, it seemed that his words made him even more excited.

Sensing Loki's change in mood, a smile appeared on Father Grace's face.

"Of course, chaos······ is the best ladder of progress, and in this world where class has long been solidified, you will not understand how long I have waited for such an opportunity. ”

"Really?"

Loki gave a noncommittal expression.

Seeing this, the elegant priest did not have the slightest meaning of explanation, but opened the black book in his hand again under Loki's vigilant gaze.

"As a friend, I don't mind showing you my sincerity first."

As he spoke, the elegant priest, who had turned the black book to a certain page, began to whisper obscurity.

Under the power of that incantation, a large area of black gas soon spread around Father Ruya.

Followed by.

At the feet of the elegant priest, three black six-pointed stars overlapped faintly appeared.

Loki's face changed when he saw this, and before he could wave the scepter in his hand again, a dense pale palm emerged from the ground around Father Grace.

At the feet of the elegant priest, a rotting flesh covered with black barbs cracked like a flower bone, and in the center of the petals was a black suitcase wrapped in disgusting slime.

The moment he saw the black suitcase, thinking of what the elegant priest had just said, Loki seemed to realize something, raised his hand slightly, stopped Hawkeye from attacking, and then quietly watched what tricks this guy was playing in front of him.

Seeing this, the elegant priest smiled lightly, then leaned over the button in the middle of the black suitcase, and the suitcase opened automatically with a "click".

Then a tube of metal iridium contained in a glass jar appeared in the sight of Loki and the others.

After picking up that special glass jar containing metal iridium.

Father Grace threw him aside at Dr. Servig, who was unconsciously approaching.

"Metal iridium, only found in meteorites, is not a special metal that belongs to the earth, and ancient alchemists used it to build portals after discovering this special metal, because this special metal can make the space gate bigger and more durable."

After frantically taking the tossed glass jar, Dr. Servig examined the piece of metal iridium that was stored in it, and nodded at Loki.

"That's exactly what we need."

After listening to Dr. Servig's words, Loki, who was still looking at the elegant priest with a wary face, suddenly changed his face and smiled: "Very good, you have impressed me with your actions, you are indeed qualified to be my friend, and when I conquer Midgard, you will be the first lord of Midgard." ”

Halfway through speaking, Loki suddenly turned around and said, "By the way, my friend, I don't know your name yet." ”

"You can call me Cassius······"

Before Cassius could finish speaking, the long-accumulated psychic scepter in Loki's hand once again shone brightly.

A pale blue wave of energy instantly pierced the void, shattering the pale palms that surrounded Cassius, and then landed on Cassius's body.

At the same time, Hawkeye Clinton, who had already received Loki's signal, shot the bursting arrow in his hand with a "boom".

And the guards around him, who were controlled by Loki, also wantonly tilted the bullets in their hands towards the place where Cassius was.

"Boom ·····"

In order to completely kill this guy who made him feel in danger, the mental scepter in Loki's hand continued to shoot waves of energy with huge destructive power towards the center of the explosion.

And Hawkeye and the others on the side also leaned the firepower in their hands without hesitation.

A few minutes later.

When the smoke cleared, all that left where Cassius had stood was a huge crater that had been shattered, and there was only a puddle of charred black flesh that had been blown to pieces.

After stomping off half of the still burning black book cover, Loki smiled as he looked at the splattered minced flesh around the pit:

"Cassius, I will remember the ····· of your contributions"

After saying that, Loki turned his head to look at Dr. Servig, who was holding the metal iridium and retreated behind the crowd, and said, "With this thing, you can open the door to the space that is enough to transport the army?" ”

"No, it only ensures that the Spatial Gate doesn't collapse on its own like it did last time in the secret S.H.I.E.L.D. base. In addition to this, we are missing one last thing, and that is a high-intensity energy source. ”

After quickly putting the metal iridium aside in his hand, Dr. Servig picked up a tablet next to him and tried to explain to the two of them how the spatial gate worked.

"We have to heat the Cosmic Rubik's Cube to more than 100 million degrees Celsius in order to use those instruments to really activate the Cosmic Rubik's Cube, and then break the space barrier and build a large and stable space gate······"

After listening to this, Loki directly distilled the core of Dr. Servig's question and asked, "Then where can I find the high-intensity energy source you are talking about." ”

"Stark Industries Building on Madison Avenue in Manhattan, New York City."

Soon, Dr. Servig expertly came up with a place name, and it was clear that he already had the answer in his mind before answering Loki's question.

"Stark Industries?"

"That's right, Tony Stark recently discovered a new element and used it to develop a clean energy source comparable to nuclear energy. But ······"

At this point, Dr. Servig paused, then continued, "But the Stark Industries Building is a jewel in New York, and if we open the door to space there, it will inevitably become the focus of the world, and Iron Man Tony Stark is not easy to mess with, so we may have a lot of trouble at that time." ”

"Trouble?"

"Wouldn't it be a problem for us to open the door of space somewhere else?"

After asking rhetorically, Loki's face showed a pride that was immersed in his bones, "Moreover, don't you think it makes more sense to govern the world under the witness of countless human beings and completely shatter their former pride?" ”

······

After solving the biggest problem faced by the Space Gate.

Loki, who had changed to a temporary base again, closed his eyes tightly, and with the help of the spiritual scepter in his hand, he contacted his biggest investor.

Illuminated by the glow of the scepter of the mind, Loki's will quickly hooked into a dim world.

In this dimly lit world, a fierce and strange figure seemed to have been waiting for Loki for a long time.

When Loki, wearing a pair of huge golden horned helmets and a scepter on his head, and wearing dark green robes, appeared, a hoarse voice sounded in this dim space.

"Loki, you've kept us waiting too long, Zitari's army is already impatient······"

"Then get them ready!" Loki stepped forward slightly, turned sideways to the figure and said, "I will take them to fight a glorious war." ”

"War? You're talking about the weak earthlings? ”

"Weak?" Loki sneered, "Don't underestimate the earthlings······ But as long as your army is as strong as you say, I will lead them to victory. ”

"Are you questioning us?"

As if offended, at the moment when Loki's words fell, the fierce and strange figure voice instantly sharpened, and said coldly: "I am still questioning the one who gave you the scepter, and gave you ancient knowledge, and your new hope." ”

"Hmph", after snorting coldly, Loki retorted unceremoniously, "It is precisely because I don't want to live up to that person's trust that I am here to remind you, after all, if the powerful Zetari army you said is defeated by the weak earthlings in your mouth, then it will definitely not be me who will be unlucky." ”

"Put away your arrogant appearance, and use your stupid brain to think about it, if the earth was really as weak as you imagined, the cosmic cube would not have been left on the earth in the first place."

After encountering one mysterious and dangerous enemy after another on Earth, Loki has already changed his impression of Earth.

In this vast universe, the earth may still be very weak, but it is definitely not as weak as others think.

Especially the guy who used weird means to take the ice crate from him.

"Hahahaha······· Defeat us, just by the earthlings? ”

The murderous figure in the dim space let out a hoarse and ugly laugh as if it had heard some big joke.

In the next second, the figure suddenly carried an afterimage, and in an instant, it suddenly struck in front of Loki's body, and the face that was close to Loki's body revealed a cruel and fierce light, "Ignorant Asgardians, you don't know the strength of our Zetarians at all, and the earth in your mouth is just a springboard for us." ”

"Our eyes have never been on the earth, but on the wider world brought about by the Cosmic Rubik's Cube······ How could an indigenous civilization that hadn't even left the planet give birth to an enemy of Zetari? ”

"You just have to do what you have to do, open that portal, and our army of Zetari will rush into the earth, sweep away the natives of that planet for you, and help you realize that ridiculous ambition······"

When the dim space shattered, Loki, who reopened his eyes, looked at the constantly flickering psychic scepter in his hand without saying a word.

Although the Zetarians are arrogant, even Loki cannot deny their strength.

And all of that is the strength of the Zetarians who fought for that one of the planets.

If all goes well.

Once he opens the door to space and summons the Zetari army into this world, he can conquer Earth with the Zetari army.

Wait until that time.

I'm sure I'll find the bastard who stole the Ice Crate and make him pay.

········

The other side.

In a ruined castle shrouded in a thin mist.

In the center of a gloomy basement, there are three dark red coffins.

And above each coffin, there was a bronze lamp lit with unknown grease and glowing with a miserable green light.

Suddenly.

The bronze lamp on the far left extinguishes itself without wind.

As the bronze lamp went out, an inexplicable wind blew in the gloomy basement.

Just as the lights of the other two bronze lamps swayed in the gloomy wind.

A pale palm suddenly protruded from the coffin, clinging to the edge of the plank.

And then.

Cassius, who looked younger, but whose face was as pale as a corpse, grabbed the edge of the plank and climbed up from the coffin on the far left.

·······

Two hours later.

Somewhere in a sparsely populated town.

Cassius, dressed in a priest's robe, came to an ice vault built underground.

Looking at the small figure standing in front of an ice coffin and wrapping himself tightly in the ice vault, the corner of Cassius's mouth as he walked into the ice vault hooked up a smile.

He really didn't expect that the woman who lacked potential would give birth to such an excellent offspring.

Excellent, let yourself can't help but want to ······ Ruined her!

After hearing the movement coming from the door, the young figure standing next to the ice coffin instantly turned his head and looked towards the entrance of the ice warehouse.

When he saw Cassius, a piercing chill instantly erupted in the eyes of the young figure.

Lowering his head, Cassius said lightly to the young figure that showed a deep chill towards him, "If you still want your mother to be resurrected, it's best not to show me this expression." ”

When the young figure heard this, the tightly wrapped face couldn't help but sneer: "Heh, is she really still her when she is resurrected?" ”

"Of course, don't compare my lord's gifts with those low-level black witchcraft."

Looking at the young figure with a hint of suspicion in his eyes, Cassius suddenly pointed at himself and said, "Haven't you noticed my difference until now?" My goddess of wisdom, Metis. ”

After hearing Cassius's words, Metis, who had turned his head away, turned his head abruptly.

Under Cassius's special reminder, Metis suddenly found Cassius who appeared in front of him today, his face was pale as deathly.

The color of the skin was like that of a dead man who had not been exposed to the sun for a long time.

Not only that, but his face seemed to be a few years younger than before, and the scar that he had left next to the major artery in his neck with that special weapon that should never have faded had mysteriously disappeared at this time.

Seeing this, Metis seemed to think of something, and his eyes showed a shock that could not be concealed.

"How is it possible, you actually ······"
