Chapter 740: Are you still engaged in finance? (A 10,000-word chapter, please subscribe)
“How long will it take to fully activate the Cosmic Cube and open the wormhole?”
Loki stared at the blue cube placed on a complex instrument not far away. He asked bluntly.
At this moment, he has returned to the secret base established by Hawkeye in the United States, making final preparations for the upcoming full-scale invasion.
Because Hawkeye was once a senior agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., he was very familiar with the thinking patterns and tactical strategies of Nick Fury and other senior leaders of the organization, and easily evaded the other party's search and tracking.
Not only that, this marksman with perfect shots also secretly contacted many enemies of S.H.I.E.L.D.
By promising to pay for the chitauri's ceramite power mechas and energy weapons afterwards, a large amount of precious intelligence was obtained, and then targeted deployment was made to bring this team The alien army tried to disrupt the situation to the greatest extent by avoiding reality and striking down illusions.
In fact, if it weren't for Hawkeye, an outstanding "traitor" commander, with the Chitauri's rigid and rigid combat methods, they would never have thought of spreading out guerrilla warfare and raiding warfare, constantly mobilizing opponents to surprise them during the movement. Launch a counterattack to eliminate the effective forces.
They will only have a head-on confrontation with the earth's defenders in a big city, and then be taken away by a sudden nuclear bomb.
Because of this, SHIELD cannot concentrate all its forces to deal with Loki. Instead, it must allocate a large part of its energy to coordinate the forces of all parties and help small countries with little military power to resist aliens. of invasion.
Even the aerospace carriers and the first-generation Avengers had to rush around the world to put out fires.
General Ross even sent the Astartes Space Marines who were still in training to join the war, quickly clearing away the enemies raging in the skies over various cities in North America, and giving the military a reputation.
Especially the thick and simple pure land combat power mecha, as well as the violent aesthetics of the bolt gun to knock down the target and then wield the chain sword to hit the target, which is similar to Iron Man's lightness, flexibility, high speed and The style full of cutting-edge technology presents two completely different and sharp contrasts.
The simple and crude force crushing, as well as the tough guy image of the Astartes warriors mixed with smoke and blood when fighting, have also gained a large number of enthusiastic fans among the people.
The military, headed by General Ross, took the opportunity to coerce public opinion and put pressure on Congress, hoping to obtain more soul currency budget next year in order to form a military force of thousands of people, equipped with small spacecraft and A battle group with various heavy weapons to deal with the crisis of alien invasion that may occur at any time.
After other countries witnessed the outstanding performance of Astartes warriors in the war, they also began to plan to select the most elite soldiers and prepare to be sent to Baator Hell to undergo transformation surgery.
Even if you don’t have enough soul currency on hand, you must at least establish a quick response team consisting of a dozen people.
Of course, Loki doesn't care much about these elite Astartes, who are currently in pitiful numbers.
What really made him nervous was the arrival of Thor.
This means that Odin, the King of the Gods, has noticed what is happening on Earth.
If the Rainbow Bridge was intact, Asgard's army would probably have arrived by now.
Dr. Eric Selvig, who was controlled by the Psychic Scepter, obviously did not notice the anxiety revealed in his master's eyes, and still said with excitement and enthusiasm: "Almost! There's still a little bit left! I have figured out how to activate it, and now I just need to choose a suitable location to open a wormhole to the deep space."
"I happen to know a good place."
Hawkeye reached out and pressed twice quickly on a device, and then New York's most prosperous commercial street and the Stark Group's building were projected out of thin air.
“Why choose here?”
Loki asked in an uncertain tone.
Eagle Eye explained patiently: "Because this is New York, it is very close to Wall Street, the center of financialization. There are many powerful bankers and capitalists there, which can ensure that the military will not easily Use nuclear weapons for bombing. By the time they react, the fleet will have reached the outer space of the earth. By then, backward weapons like nuclear bombs will be of no use."
"Very good! Plan comes."
Loki agreed to this bold plan without hesitation.
Because the latter has already proven himself in previous confrontations.
"Understood! I'll get ready right away."
Hawkeye nodded slightly, and immediately turned around and began to assign tasks to the last Chitauri army hidden here.
At this moment, he has already changed into a ceramic power mecha. Not only has his defense power been greatly improved, but the types of arrows used are also more complex and diverse.
The previous arrow that instantly caused electromagnetic interference to the steel armor and caused downtime was just one of them.
It even includes anti-matter bombs that can create small black holes out of thin air to attract surrounding enemies, and melt arrows with super penetrating effects.
So Hawkeye is confident enough to surprise his former comrades.
Just as Loki was watching Dr. Eric Selvig command his assistant to pack and carry away the Cosmic Cube and the surrounding complex instruments, he suddenly saw little Annie standing beside him at some point. Next to him, he immediately put on a smiling face and asked: "How about it, you should know how to be afraid now, right? Soon countless cities will be reduced to ashes in the flames of war."
After that, Loki put on a pose With a sinister and evil look, he suddenly moved his face towards me to scare this interesting human girl.
What’s embarrassing is that little Annie didn’t even blink. Instead, she calmly stuffed a chocolate ball into her mouth and ate it with gusto. At the same time, she casually asked: “If you occupy this planet, Can you gather the best pastry chefs in the world and let them make delicious snacks for me 24 hours a day?”
“Pfft hahahaha!
Of course no problem!
I can even make you a princess and directly allocate a piece of land to create a fairy tale kingdom for you to rule.
All the buildings inside are made of cake and honey.
You can eat as much as you want and do whatever you like. ”
Loki laughed and made the promise.
Because he really likes this weird little thing in front of him that makes people wonder what is going on in his mind.
Especially in those big and smart eyes, there was no trace of fear from the beginning to the end. Even after witnessing hundreds of thousands of deaths, they were not moved at all.
That kind of carefree look made Loki, who had just left Asgard and started wandering alone, feel like he had met someone of the same kind.
If possible, he really hopes that the other person can stay with him and maintain this relationship forever.
“Really?”
Undisguised surprise appeared on little Annie's face.
But soon she frowned and muttered in an embarrassed manner: "I'm afraid this won't work, my father won't agree."
"Father?"
< br>Loki keenly grasped a key word.
He originally thought that this little guy's parents had died long ago, or that he was simply an abandoned orphan.
After all, under normal circumstances, any parent with any sense of responsibility would let such a young girl wander around alone in the war-torn ruins.
However, Loki did not struggle with this issue. Instead, he touched the girl's hair and comforted: "Relax, I will make your father agree. Because it won't take long for me to be like this. The king of this planet."
"Well - I'm afraid this won't work, because you won't be able to defeat my father."
Little Annie raised her head with concern. A hint of mercy.
She had witnessed more than once what happened to the enemies who opposed Zuo Si, and she did not want this interesting uncle who had finally been found to die without a burial.
"Haha, don't worry, I am a god, and your father is just a mortal. He dare not go against my will."
Loki obviously did not realize the seriousness of the problem, and opened his arms and raised the spiritual scepter high. Guarantees were given.
But unfortunately, little Annie's reaction to this was just to sigh, take out a pink heart-shaped cartoon badge from the pocket of her skirt, pin it directly on the chest of the other person's clothes, and use He warned like a little adult: "This badge can protect you. Promise me not to take it off no matter what happens."
"No problem. I promise to always wear it. "
Loki thought it was just a child's trick, and nodded in agreement without hesitation, not realizing at all the amazing arcane energy contained in the silvery highlights on the surface of the badge. .
In this way, two people, one large and one small, hand in hand, boarded a Quinjet that Patton had snatched and flew straight to New York.
......
On the other side, far away on SHIELD's sky carrier, the first-generation Avengers who had been fighting at high intensity for more than ten hours were gathering in the combat conference room to rest.
Among them, Iron Man Tony Stark is repairing and strengthening his suit, Captain America and Black Widow are testing the new weapon that Coulson just sent that is still in the experimental stage, and Thor is Missing his half-brother Loki.
Dr. Banner is still searching for gamma rays emitted by the Cube around the world and has not participated in the war at all.
Perhaps feeling that the atmosphere at the scene was a bit depressing, Nick Fury was the first to speak and break the silence: "According to the latest battle report, we have eliminated the enemies raging in Asia and America.
I don’t know what happened on the other side of Africa. What happened, the enemy suddenly disappeared without a trace.
At present, there are only some remnants in Europe and Australia.
But it is only a matter of time before they are eliminated. In other words, Loki doesn’t have much power at hand anymore.”
"No, you are wrong. These are just the vanguard troops brought by Loki. He is using the Chitauri soldiers to attract your attention and buy time for himself."
Thunder God Thor interrupted very rudely Director of Braised Eggs.
But this was obviously what Nick Fury wanted, and he immediately asked: "How much do you know about these aliens invading the earth?"
Thor did not add Thoughtful answer: "The Chitauri are a group of predators. They do not belong to any force, but they obey the orders of Thanos, a very powerful and dangerous guy.
Perhaps in the past, apart from their numbers, these guys There is nothing worthy of praise outside.
But not long ago, they seemed to have acquired some extremely advanced technology.
Not only did this make the firepower of their fleet extremely terrifying, it even destroyed several planets that dared to resist, but the protection of the power mechas worn by individual soldiers was also greatly improved, and the power of energy weapons became stronger. dozens of times.
So as I emphasized before, the Chitauri currently wreaking havoc on Earth are nothing at all.
What really needs to be vigilant is the huge fleet that Loki plans to summon by opening the wormhole. "
"Wait! You said that the Chitauri's technology suddenly improved significantly not long ago? ”
Tony Stark's expression changed slightly, and at the same time he turned his attention to Balthazar, who was sitting in the corner calmly drinking tea, undoubtedly thinking of something.
“Yes.
It’s not just the Chitauri.
All forces such as the Shi’ar Empire, the Kree Empire, the Nova Corps, and the Skrull Empire are all There was a very abnormal technological explosion.
Because of this, the entire universe was at war.
Thousands of planets and civilizations were reduced to ashes in the flames of war.
There are even several emerging forces that are expanding at an extremely fast rate.
Even my father had to improve Asgard's war readiness to prevent the possibility of a larger-scale war. ”
As a conscientious person, Thor is obviously not good at keeping secrets, so he told everything he knew in one go.
Bathazar obviously noticed that including Director Ludan and Iron Man, Several people inside looked at me strangely and admitted openly: "Yes, this is the mysterious message that you detected before from the hyperspace beacon tower.
Normally, civilizations with higher technological levels tend to be able to absorb and transform more knowledge and technology.
However, it is not ruled out that some low-level civilizations suddenly acquire certain key technologies and suddenly rise.
This is why the difference in manufacturing technology between the ceramite armor used by the Chitauri and the ceramite armor you get is very small.
And if these guys get some amazingly powerful space weapons, it is very likely that the cities built by humans on the surface of the planet will be destroyed instantly in a short period of time.
Remember the Cyclone Fish?
That is just one of many means of destruction.
Although the power is far from enough to completely blow up the entire planet.
In addition, there are spears of light that can burn through the core of the earth, macro cannons that accelerate cannonballs the size of buildings to close to the speed of light, and cannons that instantly cover the surface of a planet like raindrops. Rain of cluster nuclear bombs. "
" Damn Fake! ”
Hearing these scalp-numbing weapons of destruction, Nick Fury immediately swore.
You must know that he has seen many big scenes, and has also witnessed the battleship of Ronan the Kree Accuser, but he never believed that these aliens are really capable of destroying the earth and mankind.
After all, if it is really necessary, Captain Marvel can be called back.
But now that he heard so many weapons that could destroy the earth in an instant, Director Lu Dan was really scared.
He is afraid that the earth and humanity will be completely gone before the savior comes back.
In contrast, Iron Man quickly calculated in his mind how terrifyingly powerful the light spear that could penetrate the center of the earth was, and what kind of device could accelerate a cannonball the size of a building. to close to the speed of light.
"We must find Loki right away! No matter what the cost!"
Captain America stood up from the chair in a flash, his whole face becoming extremely ferocious and full of murderous intent.
However, these first-generation Avengers present did not know that in fact, weapons such as macro cannons and light spears were only obtained after the hyperspace beacon tower transmitted the broadcast, and they did not really spread at all.
Most of the technologies that have spread were developed by Jinji Tasha through the unique ability of Shimmering Oil, including some of the Burning Legion and Titan technologies in the universe where Azeroth is located.
Although the power is quite amazing, it does not reach the level of being able to explode stars instantly.
The reason why Balthazar said this was simply to create an atmosphere of panic and give the entire earth a strong sense of crisis from top to bottom, prompting him to make up his mind to develop the aerospace field and enter the universe as soon as possible.
"Thor, you grew up with Loki, do you know where he might be hiding?" Black Widow asked with a serious expression.
Thor smiled bitterly and shook his head: "How could I know. Loki has liked to play tricks since he was a child, and he can deceive me almost every time. If I knew where he was hiding, I would have flown there. Someone was arrested."
While everyone was frowning, Dr. Banner suddenly shouted: "I found the location of the Cosmic Cube!"
"Where is it? ?”
Nick Fury was the first to run in front of the detector, and found that the light spot representing the Rubik's Cube of the Universe was moving at an extremely fast speed, and finally stopped in the busiest downtown area of New York.
Through the real-time tracking of spy satellites, he could clearly see a group of Chitauri soldiers helping to transport a large number of instruments.
After the transfer was completed, Dr. Eric Selvig carefully placed the Rubik's Cube in the middle, then obtained energy from the Ark Reactor in the Stark Group Building, and began continuous debugging.
With the continuous stimulation of huge currents, the Cosmic Cube began to become brighter and brighter at a speed visible to the naked eye...
After a while, Loki also He stepped off the stolen S.H.I.E.L.D. plane, accompanied by a cute little girl who looked only a few years old.
"What's going on with this girl?"
Tony Stark, who has always liked children, frowned and asked.
“I don’t know. Maybe it’s a hostage, maybe it’s just fun to keep around, just like humans would keep cute pets. We just need to lure Loki away and rescue this little guy. That’s it.”
As Black Widow spoke, she quickly put on all kinds of new equipment and held a dagger that emitted a hot red light tightly in her hand.
"Okay, just follow what you said. Thor is responsible for diverting Loki away, I will take the opportunity to rescue the child and give it to you, and you are responsible for sending her to a safe place."
After that, Iron Man put on his scarred armor and walked out of the combat conference room, taking off directly from the deck of the aerospace aircraft carrier.
Captain America couldn't help but complain in a low voice when he saw this: "Damn it! Doesn't this guy Stark have any intention of teamwork..."
But before he could say anything, After that, he saw Thor, the god of thunder, wielding the Meow Hammer and flying away.
Witnessing two consecutive main combat forces in the team leaving without saying goodbye, Rogers suddenly felt bad all over. At the same time, he missed the tacit cooperation of his teammates in the Howling Commandos during World War II.
“Don’t worry, Captain. Mr. Stark has always had his own way, and Thor is the crown prince of Asgard and the son of Odin, the King of Gods. Neither of them is that kind of person. Someone who obeys orders obediently.”
Seeing his idol's depressed face, Colson, a die-hard fan, immediately stood up to comfort him.
Captain America forced out a smile and responded: "Don't worry, I'm not that fragile yet. The most important thing now is to go to New York immediately to stop Loki's plan. The rest of us need a plane with the fastest speed. "The fastest plane."
"No problem, I'll make arrangements right away." Following Coulson's affirmative reply, a slender fighter plane using a new material as its engine appeared in the sky. On the deck of the Sky Carrier.
The moment Captain America, Black Widow, and Dr. Banner sat down and fastened their seat belts, dazzling bright flames spurted out from the tail.
The next second...
Boom! ! ! ! ! !
The entire aircraft broke through the sound barrier and made a huge sound at the moment of takeoff, and at the same time released a beautiful Mach ring.
Such a terrifying acceleration almost gave Dr. Banner a heart attack, and his face turned a little green.
Black Widow clutched her chest and gasped for air, and asked the pilot in the cockpit ahead: "What model is this plane? Why have I never seen it before?"
The latter showed off proudly: "It is still an experimental model, codenamed Aurora, and is currently the fastest aircraft. Thanks to the results of reverse research on ceramic steel, if the limit of the human body's endurance is not considered, it can even fly Fly to any corner of the earth within twenty minutes."
"Great! This is exactly the speed we need now."
Captain America, who has extraordinary physique, obviously likes it. Not only did he not show any discomfort due to the excitement brought by this high-speed flight, he instead stared wide-eyed at the scenery of the rapidly receding reference object outside the window.
Just as the Avengers were all dispatched, Nick Fury had already had a showdown with Balthazar in the combat conference room of the aerospace aircraft carrier.
“We need a powerful outer space fleet to keep the Chitauri out of the Earth. Today’s human civilization simply cannot withstand the damage caused by orbital bombardment.”
"Then have you considered the price you have to pay? You must know that you caused this crisis yourself." Balthazar asked expressionlessly.
“What price?”
Director Lu Dan’s heart sank instantly.
"At least four billion evil souls. After all, we are facing the eternal Titan Thanos this time. Loki is just a pawn thrown to the front desk. The master must prepare for the worst case scenario."
Basazar opened his mouth unceremoniously.
Upon hearing this number, Nick Fury's bald head was quickly covered with beads of sweat, and he argued with trembling lips: "This is impossible! That is almost more than half of the population on the earth, and many of them cannot meet the standards of evil at all. "
"Of course I know you can't afford that much now, but it doesn't matter. The thirty-six banks in the ninth level of Bato Hell are willing to provide you with loans, financing, debt issuance, acquisitions, and currency. All financial services including exchange and packaging."
As he spoke, Balthazar raised his hand and summoned a polite devil in a tuxedo.
As soon as the latter appeared, he immediately put his hand on his chest and bent down to salute. He opened his mouth and showed sharp teeth like a shark: "Ah! Hello, distinguished customer. I am the No. 1 bank alliance member. Salesman No. 93425 - Alves, it is a great honor to serve you."
"You are still engaged in finance?"
Nick Fury was stunned.
Because in this devil, he saw the same ugly face as Wall Street financial capital that wanted to eat him alive.
“Of course!
Under the leadership of the great Prince of Hell Soth, the ninth level of Baator Hell adheres to the principle of providing services when needed, actively expands the sinking market, and connects upstream and downstream Connect and grasp the user's pain points
In short, there is nothing we can't provide except what you can't imagine.
And recently we have launched a series of easy-to-understand packages for new users.
Not only can it help customers get loans quickly, but they can also enjoy extremely low interest rates.
Whether it is the demon lord of the bottomless abyss or the angel of the Seventh Heaven Mountain, they all have business dealings with us. ”
This guy who calls himself Alves is obviously a very typical devil. He talks endlessly without giving others time to calm down and think.
As a person who has been dealing with devils all his life Of course, the mage he was dealing with, Igwilf, didn't know the devil's mortal enemy, the Devil, and he immediately smiled playfully and waited for the show.
She was 100% sure that this devil, who looked harmless to humans and animals, must be holding back his bad intentions and digging a hole for Director Lu Dan to jump into.
You must know that the banks opened by demons in Baator Hell are not financial institutions in the ordinary sense, but real demon caves that eat people without spitting out their bones.
Here, if you repay the loan, even the souls of the whole family, old and young, will be dragged into repaying the debt.
If that's not enough, the devils will be very considerate and leave you a descendant in the material plane, and then let him or her get married and have children to continue to multiply and expand the family. The souls of all their descendants will be bound by the contract. and fall into hell until the number of souls is enough to offset the debt.
Of course, during this period, all loan interest is still accumulating.
"I can't make the decision on this kind of thing. I need to ask the Security Council for instructions immediately."
Nick Fury took a deep breath and forced himself to stay calm.
"Of course, I am very happy to accompany you and give a detailed explanation of the relevant business."
The devil Alves obviously knew that this was a big man, his eyes instantly lit up, and his face also Then a professional smile appeared.
Among them, the tail with a poisonous hook hidden behind the legs quietly flicked twice at the powerful warrior monk Balthazar, meaning that if the deal was concluded, he would not Forgot to pay the introduction fee.
Just like that, Director Lu Dan led a devil's bank clerk into the entire space aircraft carrier's room dedicated to liaison with the Security Council.
When the emergency contact was connected, the images of the five representatives were instantly projected on the screen.
The leader asked directly: "Director Nick, do you have any business contacting us at this time?"
"Yes, I have something related to the earth and the world. The choice of the future destiny of mankind needs to be decided by you.
Since this alien invasion was caused by unauthorized research on the Cosmic Cube, according to the supplementary terms of the contract, we need to ask for protection. Pay additional soul currency
According to the statements given by Thor and Mr. Balthazar, Loki and the Chitauri were just pawns thrown to the foreground, and the real person hiding behind them was a cosmic overlord named Thanos.
Although he is not as powerful as Odin, the father of the gods in Asgard, he is already a strong man recognized by all forces.
So the price offered by Lord Soth is four billion sinful souls.
This is far beyond what we can afford.
To this end, there are only two roads before us.
One is to take huge risks and face alone the alien fleet that may arrive at any time, and the other is to borrow money from the bank of Baator Hell. "
At this time, Nick Fury obviously did not dare to hide anything, and gave a detailed explanation from beginning to end.
"Bank? Loan? Oh my god! There is such a financial service in Baator Hell? ”
One representative’s eyes widened in shock.
No matter it was him, several other people also looked at each other, and for a moment they didn’t know what to say.
After all, as global capital transitions from the industrial to the financial stage, they have long been familiar with these things.
It’s just that they didn’t expect that the hell devils who use souls as currency would also play this trick.
But fortunately, the psychological quality of the representatives who can become the Security Council is quite good. The strange silence lasted for a few minutes and then returned to normal.
Another representative asked bluntly: "How do we borrow and repay? What is the interest rate?"
"Between your planet's total population, birth rate, crime rate and I have prepared a draft on the way here, please take a look at the comprehensive calculation of the death rate and the total number of evil souls borrowing up to four billion.”
While speaking, Devil Alves raised his hand and lightly snapped his fingers.
In an instant!
A huge parchment scroll with a faint burnt smell appeared out of thin air and was spread out, showing all the densely packed terms in front of the camera.
It didn’t take long for the representatives to get the printed loan contract through camera scanning.
Of course, this thing, like all contracts used by devils, is essentially a variant of the hell contract.
It's just that Zuo Si made a series of extensions to it, making it look like a business contract or a gambling agreement on the contract of selling one's soul.
In the final analysis, as long as a debt is incurred and cannot be repaid, the final result is that the soul becomes the property of the creditor.
In other words, the banks, stock markets, bonds, and finance in the ninth level of Bato Hell are all another means of invisible harvesting of souls.
Coupled with the temptation brought by the developed entertainment consumption industry, once you fall into it, there is basically no hope of climbing out.
It took more than ten minutes for the representatives to understand the potential risks contained in this soul loan contract with the interpretation of professional assistants in relevant fields.
Although the overall interest rate is not high, if you want to fully repay the principal with interest according to the term, at least the total population of the earth needs to exceed the 10 billion mark, and the proportion of evil people among the deaths must not be less than 1%. twenty.
Otherwise, interest will compound in the event of a long-term default.
In normal times, the Security Council would not sign such a contract at all.
Because this is not just paper money that can be printed as much as you want, but a living human soul.
But now they obviously have no choice.
What's more, this loan contract is not really repayable, it is just a little difficult.
As long as there is a slight inclination of food resources to Africa, the South Asian subcontinent, Southeast Asia, the Middle East and Central and South America, where the population is growing fastest, I believe that the goal of a global population of 10 billion will be achieved soon.
At that time, if we incite social conflicts and racial hatred a little, and let the gangs gradually gain control of the grassroots, a perfect soul currency production place will be completed.
So after simple consultations, the Security Council representatives finally agreed to sign the loan contract.
They didn't even realize that the moment the contract came into effect, the devil Alves was trembling slightly with excitement from head to toe.
Because he completed the mission assigned by the lord of the ninth level of Baator Hell.
Obviously, Zuo Si is using this method to gradually burden mankind with a huge debt that is impossible to pay off.
Maybe it seems like this debt is nothing now.
But the problem is that the crisis facing the earth is not just this one, but is coming one after another.
Especially Iron Man Tony Stark used the Mind Stone to create Ultron.
As long as he makes a little move to make Vision disappear completely, it is basically impossible to defeat Ultron with the infinite stones and vibranium body by relying on the power of the Avengers alone.
And since this matter was caused by human beings committing suicide, Zuo Si could naturally charge an extra large amount of soul currency, completely making this debt go out of control.
At that time, he only needs to tell the anxious Security Council that in fact, the soul currency does not necessarily need to be owned by the earthlings themselves. It can also be plundered by killing aliens, and then provide a full set of interstellar battleship construction and planets. It is self-evident what will happen with environmental transformation technology.
Soon, human civilization stepping out of the solar system will set the entire galaxy on fire.
Just when the contract came into effect, the decisive battle over New York also began.
With thunder and lightning, Thor was the first to arrive at the top floor of the Stark Group building. At a glance, he saw his good brother Loki and little Annie, looking at the various fine wines and wines placed in the Iron Man wine cabinet. drinks.
I saw the two of them unceremoniously opening bottles of expensive famous wines, pouring them into cups and mixing them at will. Then they added juice and soda water to them, and drank them in exchange.
If it tastes good, stick out a thumb. If it tastes bad, spit it out on the spot, then point at the other person's nose and laugh, as if you are enjoying it.
"Hey! Loki! What are you doing?"
Thor shouted from a distance.
Because there was a little girl at the scene, he didn't dare to approach her easily, let alone launch a sudden attack.
"I'm drinking, would you like a drink?"
Loki was obviously in a good mood at the moment and raised the cocktail he had just mixed in his hand.
"Are you sure you didn't poison it?"
Thor asked uncertainly.
Loki curled his lips disdainfully: "Even if I want to poison, will the toxins on the earth have any effect on you, the god of thunder?"
Thor nodded thoughtfully: "That's right. Yes, then give me a drink.”
The words have not yet finished!
A glass filled with wine flew directly over and stopped steadily in front of him.
As a bold warrior, Thor had almost zero resistance to alcohol, so he raised his head and drank it all without saying a word, then threw the glass to the ground and broke it.
Snap!
Shards of crystal clear glass flew everywhere.
"Come, Loki, if you are still my brother get away from that girl and fight me one on one like a man."
Thor raised his hammer He took the initiative to invite a battle.
But Loki sat at the bar without even moving, and asked with a sneer: "Do you think I kidnapped this girl?"
"Isn't it?"
Thor asked angrily.
"Then why don't you ask her herself? Or do you think she is afraid of me?"
When saying these words, Loki's tone was obviously With naked and undisguised ridicule.
After all, no matter how unbearable he was, he would not kidnap such a young child as a hostage.
In fact, the root of his tragic life is that he is neither willing to be a hero who sacrifices himself for others, but also unable to completely abandon his conscience and become an outright villain. He always wants to find a balance in the gray area in between.
But before Thor could ask, Iron Man, the owner of the building, dropped from the sky, opened his visor and helmet, opened his arms and said to little Annie: "Beautiful little princess, come to Uncle Tony Come on, the guy next to you is not a good person.”
“No!”
Little Annie shook her head in refusal.
Iron Man and Thor were confused by this. They turned their heads and stared at each other, not knowing what to do.
Loki immediately clapped his hands and laughed: "Hahahaha! How about it? Do you still think I kidnapped her? On the contrary, she wanted to follow me."
"Damn! Now! But it’s troublesome.”
Tony Stark noticed the pink badge worn on Loki’s chest, and the intimacy between the two of them when they clinked glasses.
"What to do now?"
Thor looked confused, obviously without any experience in dealing with children.
Iron Man ignored him and asked his artificial intelligence butler directly: "Jarvis, is there any way you can make that little guy come over by himself or stay away from Loki?"
Jia Weiss immediately replied: "According to the advice of parenting experts on the Internet, to attract the attention of a girl under ten years old, you can usually use toys, desserts and beautiful clothes.
Between these things you can There are none now, so I think the probability of success is low.
Also, I would like to remind you that this girl is not ordinary.
Just before you arrived, she had been with Loki. Approximately more than four liters of spirits and other beverages were consumed together
Under normal circumstances, even adults are highly likely to die from alcohol poisoning.
But she was not drunk at all, and she had not even been to the toilet.
The most important thing is that my detector can't even sense her body temperature and heartbeat..."
