Chapter 219 Laufey: This round, the advantage is on my side!
Chapter 219 Laufey: This round, the advantage is on my side!
At this point, Laufey, still filled with doubt and suspicion, probed several times. Only after confirming that Loki was completely dead and showed no signs of life did he finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Laufey, who thought he had seen through Loki's thoughts, couldn't help but smile. He gave Loki, who was willingly offering himself up, a disdainful smile.
I thought that Loki, who has the title of "God of Mischief," might have some cunning trick up his sleeve to turn the tide in this unfavorable situation.
In retrospect, this title was ultimately an exaggeration.
They simply realized that the situation was unfavorable and that they were doomed to die today.
So, before he died, he deliberately put on a hypocritical act of bravely facing death, hoping to earn a better reputation and qualify for Valhalla.
Instead of dying here alone and in despair as a traitor who colluded with foreign tribes to launch an invasion war.
Thinking about it this way, deciding to abandon Loki and let Odin take him away back then was indeed a wise decision.
Otherwise, this person, born inferior and a disgrace to the royal bloodline, should have been strangled on the spot; he didn't even deserve to live...
How could they possibly help the Frost Giants avenge Asgard thousands of years later?
Therefore, seeing that Loki had stimulated Odin to enter a state of hibernation ahead of time, he also used a trick to banish Thor to the mortal realm.
After that, in order to successfully activate the Bifrost and send the Destroyer armor to Earth, Loki took out the Casket of Ice from the Vault and froze Heimdall into an ice sculpture.
Even after killing Loki, who was determined to die, and unexpectedly gaining control of the Destroyer armor, Laufey could still clearly see that Thor's source of power, Mjolnir, was in the Destroyer armor's hand!
It can be said that, given this situation, Asgard has completely lost all possibility of turning the tide!
Laufey, who felt he had all the advantages and was in the bag no matter how he looked at it, was happy to pretend to be generous and show Loki a bit of fatherly love without exposing Loki's true intentions.
Then, deliberately in accordance with Loki's dying wish, while controlling the Destroyer armor, he reached out with his free hand and grabbed Thor by the neck. Like grabbing a chick, he lifted Thor off the ground. Taking advantage of the shared senses between himself and the Destroyer armor, he smugly mocked Thor.
"Oh my, what a touching brotherhood... It's just a pity that Loki is dead and will never have the chance to answer your call! Hahahaha—!!!"
"What! That voice... Laufey! It's you, the one who killed Loki—!!!"
"That's right, it's me... What, you still want revenge? Have you forgotten how badly you were defeated when you fought me before? Kneel down now, bow down and submit to me, and perhaps I might spare your lives because I'm in a good mood~"
"Loufi—!!!!!"
After a brief exchange with Thor, Laufey not only announced Loki's death in public, but also indirectly testified for Loki, taking all the blame for him.
As a result, Thor's full head of blond hair stood on end, and as he roared angrily, he looked like a lion with its hair standing on end.
Even the Asgardian quartet, who had initially believed that Loki had ulterior motives and was plotting against Asgard, were now stunned and dumbfounded by the devastating news of Loki's death!
It turns out that all this time, the four of them had been wrongly accusing Loki...
Loki didn't actually want to seize the throne that rightfully belonged to Thor!
Instead, in order to protect Asgard, he was forced to submit to Laufey's threats and do so many dirty jobs for him!
Even now, upon careful reflection, the four members of the Asgardian group belatedly realized...
Since Loki ascended the throne, he has not done anything bad.
Even during the series of attacks he launched while controlling the Destroyer armor, Loki deliberately held back on several occasions when he could have killed all four of them!
So much so that when the four members of the Celestial Palace came to their senses, they looked at each other and couldn't help but show expressions of guilt and self-reproach.
After a moment of silence, they clenched their fists, turned their heads in unison, and stared at the Destroyer armor in front of them with gritted teeth.
Clearly, Thor and the Asgardian idiots had all been completely fooled by Loki's words.
Therefore, the five members of the group were filled with a complex mix of emotions, including admiration, grief, and self-blame, for Loki's heroic sacrifice.
In their hearts, a common goal emerged without prior agreement.
That is, to return to Asgard as soon as possible and personally tear Laufey, that beast, to pieces! To appease Loki's spirit in heaven!
"It seems you really miss Loki..."
To be honest, although I personally defeated the five people before me in Jotunheim, and now they have even occupied the royal palace of Asgard, eliminating any possibility of anyone being able to replace Heimdall and open the Bifrost.
But for some reason, looking at the group of five in front of him, each with their own red-eyed special effects, as if they couldn't wait to devour him alive, Laufey felt a chill in his heart.
Laufey, seemingly unconcerned, hadn't even finished speaking when he used his scepter to control the Destroyer armor, raising Thor's hammer high above his head. He then brought it crashing down on Thor's head!
"Since that's the case, then I'll do a good deed... I'll personally send you all to Valhalla, to reunite with that good-for-nothing! I'll start with you, Thor! Hahaha—!!!"
The Destroyer Armor's immense power, combined with the destructive force of Thor's hammer...
If that hammer blow lands squarely, even if Thor regains his divine power, he'll probably have to report to Valhalla and reunite with Loki, who went ahead of him!
Despite his anger, Thor couldn't continue to play the fool and withstand the attacks of the Destroyer armor in order to preserve his strength so he could return to Asgard and avenge Loki himself.
Instead, he raised his right hand towards Thor's hammer. Using the divine power within him as a guide, he tried desperately to re-establish contact with Mjolnir, who had fallen into the hands of the Destroyer armor!
It was precisely because of Thor's choice that he received both bad news and good news.
The bad news is that even after regaining his divine power, Thor still couldn't gain the approval of Mjolnir, and still couldn't get any response or resonance from that hammer that was so close to him.
The good news is that just as Thor was deeply doubting his existence, wondering if he had truly and completely lost the right to lift Mjolnir, and thus missed his last chance to fight back, just as the Destroyer armor wielding Mjolnir was about to smash a solid blow to his head,...
A silver-white blur, as fast as lightning, suddenly appeared from the direction of the temporary camp set up by S.H.I.E.L.D., without any warning!
In the blink of an eye, this silver-white afterimage, whose speed had exploded to its limit and was no longer visible to the naked eye, slammed heavily onto the back of the Destroyer Armor's head, causing the unsuspecting Destroyer Armor to lose its balance and be forced to release its grip on Thor's neck.
Then, with a skillful drift around the corner, right before everyone's eyes, he smashed Thor's hammer in the Destroyer armor to pieces!
