------------------------------------------------
Boom—!
A Repulsors fired directly at Thor's face.
Several unmanned Iron Man suits also surrounded him.
Thor swung his hammer to parry them, roaring: "Tony! Wake up! You're attacking a comrade!"
"I am awake, more awake than ever."
Tony performed a spiral in the air, the micro-missile pod on his shoulder opening, and six Sidewinder Missiles trailed fire as they shot toward Thor.
"Lorelei is perfect; she deserves everything I have to offer."
"Crazy... you've gone mad!"
Thor swung mjolnir, lightning weaving into a net that detonated the missiles mid-air.
The smoke and dust had not yet cleared.
"Whoosh—!"
A specially made alloy arrow pierced through the smoke, heading straight for Thor's throat.
Thor tilted his head to dodge, the arrow grazing his cheek and pinning itself into the wall, its fletching still vibrating.
In the corner, Clint Barton drew his bowstring to the full, his gaze cold.
"Thor, for the Queen, my arrows will be very sharp!"
"Swish! Swish! Swish!"
Barton's Triple-shot Alloy Piercing Arrows were fired,
The first landed on Thor's head, the second on his left chest, and the third on his abdomen.
"Thud! Thud! Thud!"
Only three dull thuds were heard as the arrows all bounced off.
"Barton! She's controlling you! Just like Loki did before!"
"I am very awake, Thor." Barton's expression was fanatical, "I have never known more clearly who I love."
Then several more high-voltage electric shock arrows were fired, giving Thor a jolt.
A dozen Iron Man suits took the opportunity to pounce, piling on top of Thor like a human pyramid.
"In that case, I can only use thunder to wake you up!"
Thor roared, his divine power surging. A massive pillar of lightning descended from the sky, piercing straight through the building's dome and blasting away all the Iron Legion suits pressing down on him.
He was wreathed in lightning, looking like a god of war.
Then he swung his hammer, sending the pouncing Tony flying with one strike, and hit the sneaking Barton with a bolt of electricity.
He was like a lion barging into a flock of sheep; though alone, he was incredibly fierce.
Bruce Banner did not join the battle.
He remained at his post, performing final adjustments on the "ultron x" device.
Even with thunder rolling overhead and glass shattering around him, he was deaf to it all.
In his eyes, there was only the Queen's mission. "One last step... Energy Coupling..."
"Damn it!"
Lorelei watched Thor showing his great power in the field, her face darkening.
These useless fools, they actually couldn't stop him?
Thor had already broken through the defensive line and was striding toward her.
"Lorelei! It's over!"
Lorelei suddenly stood up, and that invisible wave of charm erupted again, rushing straight for Thor's brain.
"Kneel! Love me!!"
Thor's movements stalled for a moment.
That familiar feeling, the impulse to give up everything just to win a smile from her, surged into his heart again.
But the next second.
Dazzling electric light erupted from mjolnir.
"Ah!!"
That sharp pain made Thor instantly clear-headed.
"It's useless, Enchantress!"
Thor raised his hammer, his face full of pride.
"As long as mjolnir is in my hand! Your sorcery has no effect on me!!"
"Is that so?"
Lorelei gritted her teeth; she hadn't expected Thor to be so difficult to deal with.
"Queen! It's ready!!"
Banner suddenly shouted and pressed the last switch.
"The device is activated!"
Lorelei was overjoyed, but Thor had already approached, raising his hammer to force her into a shutdown.
"Protect the Queen!!"
Banner saw Thor closing in.
Without any hesitation.
"Ah—!!!"
In that instant, he was no longer the gentle and refined Dr.
Green skin burst through his shirt, and muscles bulged like rocks.
Hulk, enters the fray.
"Clang!!"
Hulk took a hit from Mjolnir directly to his chest; the massive impact made his body sway.
"Well done! My Beast!"
Lorelei laughed triumphantly and stepped forward, stroking Hulk like she was petting a pet.
"You are the strongest warrior..."
However.
Hulk turned his head, his bloodshot eyes staring at Lorelei.
"Don't... touch... Hulk!!"
Then he backhanded her with a slap.
"Bang!!"
This slap landed squarely on Lorelei.
The Asgard Enchantress was sent flying horizontally, crashing hard into the wall and smashing half of it down.
Dead silence filled the room.
Tony was stunned.
Barton was stunned.
Even Thor was dumbfounded.
"You..." Tony's faceplate opened, revealing an expression of disbelief, "You hit the Queen?"
"You actually dared to hit the Queen?!"
Barton was instantly enraged.
"Kill him!!!"
Tony and Barton immediately turned their weapons and unleashed a frantic barrage on Hulk.
"Boom boom boom!!"
Hulk howled from the explosions and became even more violent, grabbing a nearby Iron Man suit and throwing it back.
The scene instantly spiraled out of control.
Thor watched this, his mind racing.
Hulk hit Lorelei?
Then Hulk is an ally!
"Good job, Banner!"
Thor laughed and rushed forward, wanting to fight alongside Hulk.
"Let's take them down together!"
He reached out to pat Hulk's arm.
However, Hulk, who was seeing red, now saw everyone as an enemy.
Especially this blond man who called him Banner; he hated him the most.
Hulk suddenly reached out and grabbed Thor's red cape.
"Wait! Hulk? What are you do—"
"Whoosh—Bang! Whoosh—Bang!"
He grabbed Thor and slammed him back and forth violently against the floor.
Once, twice, three times.
Large craters were smashed into the floor.
"Pfft..."
Thor was slammed into a daze, and mjolnir flew out of his hand, landing several meters away.
Hulk casually tossed Thor onto the ground and turned to deal with Tony, who was bombarding him.
"Damn it..."
Thor reached out, his fingers spreading, preparing to summon mjolnir.
"Hum—"
The hammer vibrated, preparing to fly back to its Master's hand.
"Look at me... son of odin..."
A gentle voice sounded in his ear.
Lorelei crawled up from the ground, blood at the corner of her mouth and her hair disheveled, but this made her look even more tragically beautiful and pitiable.
In that moment, she concentrated all her charm magic on Thor.
"No..."
Thor's eyes began to glaze over.
He saw the tears in Lorelei's eyes, saw her "grievance."
A strong sense of guilt welled up in his heart. How could I hurt her? She is so beautiful, so fragile.
"That hammer... it wants to hurt me."
Lorelei pointed at the flying mjolnir, her voice trembling.
"Let it go."
"Yes... My love."
Thor suddenly pulled back his hand and roared at the flying hammer:
"Get lost!!"
This was a will of rejection.
mjolnir jerked to a halt in mid-air, losing the pull of the summons; due to inertia, it flew right past Thor's scalp.
"Crash!"
It smashed through another window and fell straight toward the streets of Manhattan.
Having lost his hammer, Thor slowly stood up and turned around, his eyes filled with "hostility" toward Hulk—because Hulk had hurt his lover.
"No one is allowed... to hurt her!!"
Thor roared and charged into the fray bare-handed.
