Chapter 214 Good news: The defense has been breached. Bad news: The damage is minimal.
It must be said that the fact that the Asgardian quartet managed to gain Thor's approval and fight alongside him for over a thousand years, despite Thor's arrogant and cocky personality and lack of restraint, demonstrates that while their usual behavior might seem goofy and unreliable, their overall strength is definitely among the top tier, second only to Thor!
Furthermore, they all knew very well that the one currently controlling the Destroyer armor was most likely Loki, who had seized the throne of Asgard amidst the chaos.
Based on their understanding of Loki, Loki, who is not good at fighting, would never be able to unleash the full power of the Destroyer Armor!
So, even though they said they would buy Thor time.
However, once they were close enough, the Warriors Three, confident in their own strength, did not choose to maneuver or fight the Destroyer armor.
Instead, Vandall and Hogan grabbed Vostagg's arms, one on each side.
Then, with perfect coordination, they exerted their strength simultaneously, using Volstagg as a human cannonball, and forcefully hurled it towards the Destroyer armor that was in mid-air!
"For Asgard! Die, Loki—!!"
Of course, with the help of his teammates, Volstagg, facing the Destroyer armor alone, showed no fear or unease. On the contrary, he was trembling with excitement, shouting slogans as he raised his battle axe high!
Then……!
Facing the menacing Volstagg, Loki, who disdained even using Thor's hammer, controlled the Destroyer armor in the blink of an eye and slapped Volstagg hard across the face!
So much so that Vostagg had just finished shouting that slogan under the expectant gazes of Jane and the others...
Unable to withstand the terrifying power of the Destroyer Armor, it was sent flying backward at double speed with a muffled groan! It smashed into the otherwise indestructible concrete ground, creating a clearly visible human-shaped crater!
When Vostagg finally recovered and crawled out covered in dust,
The Destroyer armor landed smoothly at the edge of the crater, its faceplates deployed. Aiming at Volstagg, who now had no way to escape, it flashed with a blazing light of concentrated energy.
"...Now is the time—!"
However, he was faced with a terrifying attack that was within arm's reach, one that could kill him on the spot.
As if he were frozen in fear, Vostagg remained in the pit and did not try to climb out. After a brief silence, he revealed a triumphant smile and shouted loudly.
Clearly, as Thor's closest comrades, they had already learned from Thor that the Destroyer Armor's energy ray, although its most powerful attack...
But at the same time, this is also when the Destroyer Armor is most vulnerable!
Due to the burst of energy, noticeable gaps appeared in the Destroyer's armor, which was originally perfectly sealed. This provided an opportunity for someone to seize the moment and insert a weapon!
in other words……
The actions of the three heroes of Asgard seemed reckless and headstrong, resulting in their immediate and humiliation...
But in reality, he was shrewd despite his rough exterior; he deliberately created a weakness for Loki to attract Loki's attention!
after all……
There were four people who stepped forward to intercept the Destroyer armor!
Look, here it is...
Just like the millennia they had fought side-by-side and shared, Sif did not disappoint her comrades' trust. Under the cover of her teammates, she successfully circled around to the Destroyer armor's blind spot.
"Eeya—!!!"
At this critical moment, accompanied by Vostagg's shout.
Like a female warrior, Sif plummeted rapidly from the sky with her back to the sun.
Before Loki could react and withdraw his attack, he used his spear to precisely pierce through the gap in the Destroyer's armor!
Furthermore, by utilizing the enchantment effect of the armor-piercing runes branded on the blade, it not only inflicted substantial damage on the Destroyer Armor but also forcibly interrupted the energy beam that the Destroyer Armor was about to fire, thus saving Volstagg's life!
This is why the four-person team risked their lives to try and draw the Destroyer armor's attention!
Because they knew all too well that unless Thor regained his divine powers...
Otherwise, given the current situation, only Sif, who is favored by Odin and gifted with this special weapon, has any hope of destroying this terrifying humanoid weapon!
"...No! Sif! Retreat—!"
Unfortunately, for the Destroyer Armor, which was designed from the outset with the Celestials as its hypothetical enemy...
All Sif could do was make the Destroyer Armor, which was originally unbeatable, show its health bar.
But that's far from enough to threaten the Destroyer Armor!
Sif's all-out attack only paralyzed the Destroyer Armor for less than a second before it was restored to its normal function under Loki's control!
The entire body was rotated 180 degrees as the armor turned.
Unaffected by Sif's failure to draw her spear, she once again gathered her energy!
This made Sif, who had just personally experienced the power of the Destroyer Armor's energy ray not long ago, immediately break out in a cold sweat!
Amidst the anxious shouts of her teammates, Sif, without bothering to retract her spear, rolled down from the right side of the Destroyer armor.
Then, the spear, which couldn't even last a second, was instantly carbonized and melted by the terrifying heat emanating from the Destroyer Armor, which fully demonstrated just how wise Sif's decision was!
"Enough! I don't want to see these clowns anymore... Get rid of them!"
Unfortunately, Sif managed to escape death, sacrificing her weapon of many years to save her life.
However, the Asgardian quartet, knowing full well that the one controlling the Destroyer armor was themselves, the current king of Asgard, showed no respect and instead launched an attack. For Loki, this was undoubtedly not very damaging, but extremely insulting!
This caused Loki, who had been overjoyed at receiving Thor's hammer, to turn grim and unpleasant once again.
With a wave of his hand, he abandoned his plan to continue toying with the Asgardian quartet like a cat playing with a mouse. He then issued new commands to the Destroyer armor.
"..."
After receiving Loki's order, the Destroyer armor, which had only glowed orange during the energy gathering phase, began to emit a white light, adding an aura of holiness to it.
But this scene made the Asgardian quartet, along with Thor who was watching from a distance, feel a chill run down their spines.
Because they all knew very well that this was not a signal that the Destroyer armor was giving up the attack...
On the contrary, this is precisely a sign that the Destroyer Armor, born for destruction, is further compressing its internal energy, and its destructive power is multiplying!
