The Asgardian Warriors that Thor brought down weren't able to return immediately to Earth. Under the cover of night, the dozen or so Asgardian Warriors, who had been waiting for a long time in the mountains, paced back and forth. While Thor could soar through the air with his divine artifact, they naturally couldn't keep up, so they could only remain here, at a loss.
However, at this moment, their hearts felt as if a heavy boulder had crashed down upon them. Though they couldn't witness the battle scene in the sky, they could clearly see the seven-colored rainbow light from the Asgardian Realm, which came to receive Thor as he departed. Thor had undoubtedly been defeated! And they, naturally, had been abandoned.
"Damn it, everyone, don't lose heart. The Bifrost Bridge will need some time before its next activation," someone tried to comfort them.
"Is that so?"
But then, a voice, tinged with mockery, came from the sky. The young figure hovering in the air looked down at them from above. He wore medieval-style armor, glowing with runes, looking as if he had stepped out of an epic legend. There was no hint of cosplay, not a trace of incongruity. These oddly dressed individuals were simply too conspicuous, too eye-catching.
"It seems you would be very happy to tell me where you came from? And what is your purpose in being here?" As he spoke, under an incredibly oppressive aura, the Asgardian Warriors were lifted into the air. The terrifying telekinesis fluctuations transformed into invisible giant hands, gripping their bodies, leaving them to struggle helplessly.
At the same time, Alex's mind-reading power surged into their minds.
"Asgardian Realm..."
"Thor..."
"Son of Odin..."
"Odin, King of the Gods..."
"Asgardian Warriors, Bifrost Bridge..."
One by one, epic-sounding terms appeared in Alex's mind. At this moment, he finally understood a place called the Asgardian Realm. It wasn't a planet, nor could it be observed by existing technology like satellite equipment; it was an existence akin to a small universe, where the entire world resembled an island.
As for their purpose in coming? Thor had kept it hidden and hadn't informed them, only knowing that he intended to kill Alex, but he hadn't told his subordinates the reason.
"How interesting," Alex sneered. Another inexplicable enemy attack. The malice from the world had arrived once again!
It doesn't matter! He was already used to it. Whether it was divine retribution or a cursed fate, he didn't lack one more enemy. Since the Asgardians wanted to kill him, then once he settled everything here, he would definitely utterly destroy the entire Asgardian Realm. This hatred was now forged.
Here's the interesting part. This seemed to be a circular deadlock. A karmic retribution. Odin saw the future Alex bringing about Ragnarök, so he made a preemptive move, but little did he know that this action was what caused Alex to thoroughly resent Asgard.
The malice from the world had already made Alex determined that these were enemies that must be eliminated. So, the question is: If Odin hadn't made a preemptive move, would Alex have brought about Ragnarök?
Just as Alex had resolved the crisis from the Asgardian Realm.
Whoosh!!!
In the long sky, harrier fighters, in stealth mode, broke through the air and arrived above a facility secretly built in the north, named the 'Joint Dark Energy Operations Base'.
As a black technology crystallization product of S.H.I.E.L.D., these fighters didn't disappear from radar due to stealth coating; they could truly vanish completely from human sight. Supersonic cruising meant that the time required to reach their destination was very short.
Soon, a group of Mutants began to descend from the fighters and started to occupy this secret facility under S.H.I.E.L.D. Leading the charge was Alex's top general, Juggernaut!
This guy jumped down from hundreds of meters in the sky, like a meteor, smashing through a building and instantly wiping out more than a dozen people in a simple, brutal manner. The terrifying, bear-like presence stood up from the rubble as if nothing had happened, then killed all the S.H.I.E.L.D. soldiers attempting to escape.
The entire Joint Dark Energy Operations Base had already received notice to begin evacuating promptly. However, to their despair, the dismantling and moving of the Tesseract were extremely difficult, which prevented these individuals from leaving in time.
Under urgent circumstances, many even considered destroying this treasure rather than letting it fall into enemy hands. Ultimately, they were still too slow. The cracking work by the Mutant 'Dianzi' allowed a group of elite Mutant members to begin infiltrating the base.
Just the rampaging Juggernaut, with a single acceleration, completely collapsed several buildings. Facing such an unstoppable force, the remaining S.H.I.E.L.D. personnel defending the base instantly fell.
"Done!"
"Quickly inventory the strategic supplies!"
Someone exerted immense effort to call off the madman, Juggernaut. Many personnel had already found boxes of brand-new weapons in the warehouse.
"This...~."
"Shouldn't these be those laser weapons from Star Wars?"
The Mutants were overjoyed. The contents of the pried-open cargo containers were all brand-new laser weapons, resembling firearms. A Mutant picked up this weapon, which looked like a slender scepter, and pressed the button. A brilliant beam of light instantly shot out from the muzzle.
The light flashed intensely, and with a boom, it completely demolished a building wall in front of it.
"This is much stronger than bullets."
Such laser weapons were unheard of; no one expected that S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Dark Energy Base would hide so many unused black technology weapons.
And the root of it all was the Tesseract, which was heavily guarded. This perfectly square blue Tesseract seemed to contain an infinite amount of cosmic energy, which could be continuously extracted to power the laser weapons.
In the past, Howard Stark had even researched the prototype of a new element from the Tesseract. However, due to the technological limitations of the current era, it was impossible to completely refine it.
