Chapter 282: Defeat

"Dang..."

With a dull crash, an invisible impact broke out between the Mind Staff and the Vibranium Shield.

But this time.

Taking advantage of the characteristics of the Vibranium Shield, the kinetic energy carried by the Mind Staff was instantly absorbed. The power given by the Super Soldier Serum burst out with the full force of Captain America, and he directly pushed Loki's Mind Staff out.

"Good opportunity."

Hawkeye Clinton, who picked up a submachine gun from the ground not far away, saw this and seized the opportunity to aim the gun at Loki's head and fired.

"Da Da Da..."

Facing the bullets aimed at his eyes, mouth and other vital parts, Loki, who had just been pushed away by Steve, had to dodge.

Before Loki adjusted his center of gravity again.

Captain America's Vibranium Shield seemed to open its eyes and smashed towards Loki's lower back.

"Bang!"

After feeling the strong wind coming from behind, Loki used his Mind Scepter to block it in time, but he was still knocked out by the heavy force of the Vibranium Shield.

After knocking down two smoking machines in a row, Loki, who was knocked out, got up from the ground in a somewhat embarrassed manner.

But just as he stood up, a small missile flew from Coulson's mechanical arm.

Not far away, Captain America took over the shield that flew back and attacked Loki again.

Far away, Hawkeye Clinton, Nick Fury and others raised their guns and blocked Loki's retreat.

"Enough!"

Just after being teleported to the earth, under the joint attack of Captain America and others, Loki, who was somewhat embarrassed, looked at the mortals in the atrium who seemed to want to force him into a desperate situation.

His eyes suddenly turned blue.

Then a piercing chill spread from Loki's body in vain.

"Breath of Winter!"

Under Loki's spell, the ice treasure box that he had just summoned released an ice storm in an instant.

The terrifying cold current close to absolute zero instantly swept the entire venue.

Under the blowing of this terrifying cold current, a frost quickly formed on the ground centered on Loki.

And this frost was still spreading outward at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Almost instantly.

A layer of frost appeared on the captain closest to Loki.

The captain who was rushing towards Loki was frozen in place by the biting cold current around Loki before his body even touched Loki.

This terrifying cold current like an ice storm not only froze the captain, but also the bullets that were fired at Loki and the small missile that was dragging its tail flame towards Loki were all frozen in the void.

Ding Ding Dang Dang!

When the bullets and missiles that were frozen into ice fell to the ground.

Loki, who had to transform into a dark blue frost giant because of the use of the Ice Box, showed a trace of disdain and disgust in his eyes when he looked at Nick Fury and others who were escaping quickly in the ice storm not far away.

He hated the frost giant blood in his body, and also hated the mortals who forced him into the frost giant form.

Although Loki did not admit it, he always regarded himself as an Asgardian from the bottom of his heart.

And he was proud of it in his heart.

And Odin and Fricka were the most important relatives of Loki in his life.

Before, Loki's mischief or pranks were just to get more attention from his parents (Odin and Fricka) and get the same treatment as Thor.

Unfortunately, from childhood to adulthood, no matter what he did or how hard he tried.

Whether it was Odin or the other gods of Asgard, they only had the reckless Thor in their eyes.

Only his mother would comfort him.

Before, Loki did not understand what all this was for.

But when he sneaked into Odin's treasure house, touched the ice treasure box, and figured out his identity.

Loki understood everything.

It turned out that he was not Loki Odinson from the beginning to the end, or it would be more appropriate to call him Loki Laufeyson.

He did not have the blood of Odin flowing in his body, so why did he ask for the same treatment as Thor.

When Loki figured this out, he suddenly realized it and almost fell into the edge of collapse.

It was from then on.

Loki began to hate the blood of the frost giants in his body.

If... if he did not have the blood of the frost giants, but the blood of Odin, the king of the gods, then would everything be different from what it is now?

With some extreme ideas, and in order to secure his throne of Asgard, Loki personally designed to let the Frost Giant King Laufey enter Asgard, and when he was most careless and the surrounding defenses were the weakest, he personally shot his nominal father, who abandoned him and left him to fend for himself, with the Spear of Eternity.

He even ignored the loss of the Rainbow Bridge and forced it to the maximum, trying to wipe out the entire Frost Giant Homeland - Jotunheim from the Nine Realms.

Of course.

Loki did this, never simply to sit on the throne of Asgard.

He just wanted to get the recognition of Odin and Freka.

Unfortunately, he messed it all up.

·········

Loki, who was trapped in his memories because of his deep blue skin, was silent for a while, and soon woke up from his memories.

"Mortals, you have successfully provoked my unpleasant memories. I, Loki, will grant you death in the name of the King of Asgard."

As he said this, Loki turned his hands and put away the ice treasure box in his hand.

As the ice treasure box was put away, the blue skin on Loki's body quickly faded and returned to a normal state.

At this time, Dr. Selvig, who was running away, was slightly stunned after hearing Loki's words.

"Loki? Asgard, are you Thor's brother?"

Loki, who had just put away the ice treasure box, heard this and his face turned cold.

"Very good, I changed my mind. I will let you know that sometimes death is not the most terrible."

Just when Loki was holding up the Mind Scepter and was about to give Dr. Selvig another fate.

At some point, Coulson, braving the cold current, sneaked up to the machine loaded with the Cosmic Cube, used his mechanical arm to take the Cosmic Cube in the middle of the ring from the machine, and then put it into a special metal suitcase next to it.

Coulson's little move, of course, could not be completely hidden from Loki.

After a faint glance at Coulson's feet that had already been covered with a layer of frost, Loki said with a hint of sarcasm: "Haha, the ignorant are fearless..."

Although he only used the Ice Box to build an ice storm close to absolute zero within a three-meter range of himself, freezing those attacks that attacked him, the terrifying cold current was not something that an ordinary mortal could resist after it escaped.

At this time, Coulson, who was resisting the ice storm, had already dropped sharply to zero. His lower body had long lost consciousness, and even his upper body and mind gradually began to stiffen and freeze.

It won't be long before he will completely lose the last bit of temperature and be frozen into a cold zombie.

But what Loki didn't expect was that.

Just as the frost spread upward along Coulson's legs.

Coulson's mechanical arm exerted force and threw the special briefcase containing the Cosmic Cube towards Hawkeye who was almost at the exit.

"Hawkeye, go ahead and take the Cosmic Cube away."

Loki was slightly surprised by Coulson's operation. He was slightly stunned, and then quickly raised the Mind Scepter in his hand and fired an energy wave in the direction of Hawkeye Clinton.

Seeing that Loki's energy wave was about to hit him with the briefcase first, Hawkeye Clinton had to dodge to the side first, intending to avoid Loki's attack, and then pick up the briefcase containing the Cosmic Cube thrown by Coulson.

Boom!

After a burst of bangs, the energy wave smashed a deep pit where Hawkeye Clinton had just stood.

"Fortunately, I hid in time."

After taking a look at the deep pit that was blown out, Hawkeye Clinton, who felt relieved, used his toes to push hard and quickly rolled to the metal suitcase that was smashed to the side.

Hawkeye Clinton, who grabbed the suitcase, was about to retreat when the tip of a scepter shining with a light blue halo hit his chest.

"You are different..."

After taking a deep look at Hawkeye Clinton, Loki began to use the psychic scepter against Clinton's chest, and a powerful psychic energy instantly flowed into Clinton's body along the tip of the psychic scepter.

Looking at Clinton's body glowing with blue light and his dark eyes, Loki smiled.

After taking the briefcase containing the Cosmic Cube from Clinton, Loki's face suddenly turned cold, and he said to Hawkeye Clinton, who was controlled by the Mind Scepter, "Go kill those guys."

"Yes!"

Hawkeye stood still for a while, then suddenly raised his submachine gun and fired at Nick Fury and others who were approaching from a distance.

"Da Da Da..."

"Fuck! Clinton, are you crazy..."

Nick Fury, who originally wanted to approach this side to see if he could get the Cosmic Cube back from Loki, cursed loudly in the face of Hawkeye's barrage of shots.

Maria Hill, who was standing by, glanced through the cover and saw Clinton's eyes, which quickly faded from black to a blue pupil. She said with a serious expression, "Sir, something is wrong. Clinton seems to be controlled by that guy!"

"Fuck, Clinton, wake up. Remember you said..."

"Bang!"

Before Nick Fury, who wanted to awaken Clinton's consciousness through the emotional card, finished speaking, he was shot in the knee by Clinton.

"Fuck..."

Seeing that Clinton, who was controlled by Loki, was about to raise his pistol and shoot Nick Fury in the head, Maria Hill hurriedly took out a small grenade from her waist and threw it at Clinton.

After seeing the grenade thrown by Maria Hill, Clinton's eyes moved, and then he dodged to the side without thinking.

"Boom!"

Accompanied by a violent explosion.

A big hole was instantly blown out of the huge instrument behind Clinton.

"No!"

Dr. Selvig saw the broken wires in the big hole and the piercing alarm that sounded quickly above the entire laboratory.

He immediately shouted: "Stop fighting. The device that stores and absorbs the energy of the Cosmic Cube has been blown up by you. The energy of the Cosmic Cube is out of control and flowing backwards. This place is about to explode. By then, even if we are not killed by the explosion, the hundreds of meters thick soil layer above will collapse and all of us will be buried alive here!"

After hearing Dr. Selvig's shout.

Everyone's eyes were involuntarily attracted to the direction of Dr. Selvig's finger.

It was not until then that they discovered that, at some point, a group of blue energy had gathered above the laboratory, like a rotating vortex.

After hearing Dr. Selvig's words, Loki, who had slowly approached Dr. Selvig through illusion, raised his eyebrows slightly.

He could feel the terrifying energy contained in the vortex above his head, and its chaotic energy trajectory that seemed to be about to explode at any time.

At this time, Dr. Selvig, who ran to a machine at full speed and operated it, shouted with sweat on his forehead: "Damn it, after the machine is destroyed, the energy stored in it will be completely detonated in two minutes at most. If we don't leave now, we will never be able to leave again."

Loki raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this, and suddenly appeared next to Dr. Selvig, and used the mind scepter to control Dr. Selvig again.

Ignoring Nick Fury who took the opportunity to take a shot in the knee, dragging Maria Hill and others aside, he walked straight out of the base with Hawkeye Clinton and Dr. Selvig.

Loki spent so much effort and ran all the way to the atrium for the purpose of ruling the earth, not coming here to die.

He was not interested in accompanying this group of mortals to die here.

Looking at Loki walking away, Maria Hill tightened her clenched hands, and finally wisely chose to let Loki and others leave.

With all the abilities and means displayed by Loki, and Hawkeye Clinton who was controlled by him, she and Nick Fury, who had lost one leg, would only sacrifice themselves in vain even if they fought to the death.

·········

Loki, Hawkeye and others left not long ago.

Above this huge laboratory, a series of footsteps came: "GOGOGO, there are high-energy reactions and unknown explosions coming from the laboratory. We must find out what happened immediately."

After hearing the voice from the top of the laboratory's spiral staircase, Maria Hill left and said: "I'm here, someone is injured, come and help..."
