Chapter 255: Recognizing Reality
Although Thor didn't fully believe Dio's words, deep down in his heart he was willing to believe the fact that Loki was not dead, and Loki, who was able to survive even being sucked into the cracks of the universe, should, no! It's not going to be so easy to die here!
And after regaining his composure, he recalled Loki's various behaviors after he arrived on Earth, and there was indeed something wrong, and the extremely powerful scepter did not know when it began to disappear.
He couldn't think of anyone else who had the ability to sneak him away but Loki.
So an unprovoked battle was temporarily stopped.
If Loki is still alive, then he will surely reappear to continue his plan.
So Thor decides to take Loki's corpse back with them, and this time he is determined to stop Loki from continuing to do evil, assuming Loki is still alive.
But if it's really Loki who dies.....
γγγγγγγγγγ
"In other words, the crisis on Earth has not been resolved, and it is very likely that Loki will fake his death and continue to complete his plan in secret?"
When Steve and the others, who were not lightly injured, returned with the corpses of Thor and Loki, Nick Fury, who had listened to what happened to them, said with a gloomy face.
"There is even worse news, Dr. Heinrich Selfer has been confirmed dead, and just as Loki was drawing everyone's attention, Agent Patton led the men to attack the vault and steal all the iridium raw materials." Agent Hill continued, grimacing.
"It seems that Loki's high-profile appearance was a cover-up from the start, in order to divert our destination and try to cause infighting among the rest of us." Nick Fury's gaze swept over Thor, Dior and the others, and his face became more and more ugly.
This is also the first time he began to doubt himself, wondering if the idea of forming the Avengers was too naΓ―ve!
These unruly creatures don't know each other, and they don't have any bonds, and this forced team relationship has become a weakness for the enemy to exploit.
If it goes on like this, you don't have to wait for the alien army to come over, and it is estimated that it will be all over after two more infighting!
"Thor, I need an answer now, what is the purpose of your coming to Earth this time? What is your position? β
Thor, who was named, said with a serious face: "My purpose is to bring all the Cosmic Rubik's Cube and Loki back to Asgard, where Loki will be punished as he deserves, and the Cosmic Cube will be properly kept." β
Listening to Thor's answer, Nick Fury's face softened slightly, at least the general goal of the two sides is the same, in this upcoming war, Thor's strong foreign aid is on the side of the earth, not on the side of his brother Loki, which is undoubtedly good news.
But Thor made it clear that he wanted to take away the prisoner Loki and the Cosmic Rubik's Cube, which is undoubtedly a headache.
It's just that with Nick Fury's city, he will definitely not discuss the problems after these things are over, he has to face the present now, and only by getting through the current difficulties can he think about the future!
In this regard, he is much better than those fools in the International Security Council!
So in order to tie Thor's powerful combat power firmly to his ship, he directly promised: "Yes, as long as you thwart Loki's plot and recapture the Cosmic Rubik's Cube, you can bring them back to Asgard." β
Tony's face clearly had a mocking smile on his face, but with the bruises and purple injuries, it looked somewhat funny.
Even though Steve was dissatisfied with Nick Fury's decision, he didn't say anything in public, obviously after seeing the true strength of Thor, he also knew that it was almost impossible to get Loki to pay for the lives of those who died innocently.
And once this is done, it will lead to even greater trouble, such as another war between planets, Asgard VS Earth?
No one dared to take such a risk, except for one person......
Steve couldn't help but look at Dio, who was closing his eyes and recuperating, he didn't know much about this person, he just read some information, but after last night's battle, he had to admit that this guy was a little outrageously strong, and he was also very daring.
After the meeting ended, Dior was left alone by Nick Fury.
"I heard Agent Romanoff tell me about the situation, and she said that Loki was already tied up at the time, so why did you kill him? Even at the expense of facing Thor, Steve and their obstruction! β
"Director Fury, do you think Loki should be damned?" Instead of answering his question directly, Dio asked him a question instead.
Nick Fury said without thinking, "Of course! In just two days, more than 100 innocent people died directly or indirectly at his hands. β
"If you caught Loki, would you kill him?"
Nick Fury's face sank, and he shook his head and said, "No." β
"Why? Just because he's an Asgardian? β
"Loki is not just an Asgardian, he is the son of Odin and the younger brother of Thor. I know what you're going to say, but from my standpoint, only the safety of the planet and the peace of the world are the highest priority! So Loki can't die, at least not at the hands of the earthlings, otherwise it will bring an indelible rift between the earth and Asgard, and even become the fuse of another war! I can't take that risk, so whatever your reasoning is, put away the dangerous idea. β
There is no difference between this answer of the black braised egg and Dior's expectation, it is impossible to judge who is right and who is wrong in this matter, there is only a difference in position and a difference in the values pursued.
"After listening to Director Fury's answer, I don't think my reasons matter anymore, do I?"
Nick Fury was silent for a moment, then sighed and said, "Have you ever heard the saying that a weak country has no diplomacy?" Powerful lions don't care about ants. We used to think that we were the only one in the universe, the master of the whole universe, but now we have been awakened and found that the earth is nothing more than an insignificant existence in the universe, synonymous with weakness, so our voices will not be heeded. β
"But at the same time, I also believe that the earth will not be so weak forever, but we need enough time and opportunity to grow, and no creature in the universe will dare to take the initiative to provoke war against us."
"The necessary forbearance can be exchanged for a bright future, this is the reality that can be seen clearly from my position."
