Chapter 79
[Uh... okay...]
Upstairs balcony.
Watching Matilda flying happily in the air.
Ye Li sat on a recliner, leaning on the railing with one hand, very comfortable and at ease. "Mm... only came to New Mexico for such a short time, and I’m already missing my little girlfriends... especially their nimble little tongues..."
Darcy exhaled a breath of fairy energy, her gray-green eyes filled with confusion. "What little girlfriends?"
Barbara, standing to the side, raised her eyelids slightly, pinched a toothpick with her slender fingers, fed a cactus fruit to Ye Li, and teased him. "He has many little girlfriends~"
"Mm~..."
Darcy rested her head on his lap, her curly hair draped down, and acted spoiled again. "Did I not perform well..."
"Performed very well."
Ye Li took a black cherry, a specialty of New Mexico, from the fruit plate and stuffed it into her full, luscious lips.
His gaze looked toward the distant horizon.
"Continue... the matter here is almost handled... it’s almost time to return to New York..."
As soon as the words fell.
The clouds rolled into a vortex, and a colorful beam of light erupted from the center of the cloud vortex—
—Biua!!
It was the Bifrost of Asgard.
It seems Sif and the Warriors Three had arrived, so the Destroyer should follow closely behind...
Woo—
On this side, the prison vehicle that Coulson had people escort Thor and the pig over in had also arrived downstairs.
"What?"
Thor, wearing handcuffs, got out of the car and was dumbfounded.
Seeing his hammer flying around with a girl, he fell into deep doubt about his divine life...
"Oink~ oink~" The pig behind him nudged Thor, telling him not to block the way.
[Sir, suddenly detected super-strong energy! And then it suddenly disappeared, probably 15 miles to the northwest...]
Coulson, who was just about to interrogate Thor, was stunned when he heard the communication, and then took the agents and sat in a special car. "Let’s go take a look!"
Now.
Thor was temporarily left unattended, and he shouted to Matilda in the air, "Little girl! Why can you lift it?"
"Weird uncle?"
Matilda landed in front of Thor. "I don't know why I can lift it either; this hammer is yours, Brother and the others all say so."
Thor sighed. "...It was originally mine... but I seem to have lost the qualification to lift it... can you let me try again?"
"Oh."
Matilda was about to hand the Meow-Meow Hammer to him, but thinking of Coulson, whose hand almost dislocated, she thoughtfully placed it on the ground in front of him. "Uncle, be careful."
Thor nodded.
He gripped the handle and tried again...
But, no matter how hard he tried.
It was the same result...
Thor was dispirited, let go of the handle, looked at Matilda, and asked, "Little girl, how do you plan to use this power?"
He wasn't very at ease with the power of Thor’s hammer falling into the hands of a human cub.
Matilda summoned the Meow-Meow Hammer back into her hand and gave Thor a bright smile. "I want to use it to protect the innocent!"
Thor fell into deep thought. "Protect..."
He thought of what his father Odin said—
A heart of benevolence...
Hum-hum—~
"Mjolnir" trembled slightly...
[Headquarters].
The surveillance personnel at the Puente Antiguo city limits looked at Sif and the Warriors Three walking swaggeringly down the street and reported: [We found warriors... Princess Sif... Cheng Long... and Robin Hood...]
"Found you, Thor!"
Volstagg the bearded shouted.
But seeing the handcuffs on Thor’s hands, he was stunned. "Who locked you up?"
Fandral the swordsman pointed his sword at Matilda. "Hey! Why is Thor’s hammer in your hand!?"
Thor said quickly, "Hey hey hey, calm down! This little girl is a good person."
Sif pressed down on Fandral’s sword-holding hand. "Don't point weapons at a little girl, Fandral."
Hogun, the last of the Warriors Three, used a dagger to break Thor’s handcuffs. "What’s going on?"
"Put down your weapons!——"
Several remaining S.H.I.E.L.D. agents pulled out their pistols and pointed them at the Asgardians. "Who are you people?"
Barbara looked down from the balcony at the two groups confronting each other and said to Ye Li, "There’s a situation below, shouldn't we go down and take a look?"
"This isn't a situation, Barbara."
"That side is the situation..."
Ye Li’s gaze didn't leave the clouds.
The next second.
The vortex light beam scene reappeared.
The Bifrost opened again—
The Destroyer had come.
Pop~
"I’m going out for a stroll."
Ye Li gently pushed away Darcy, who was working hard, straightened his clothes, and walked downstairs.
Barbara and Darcy looked at each other...
[Mr. Ye, can you contact Stark? A tall humanoid armor has appeared here; is it his?]
[Coulson, I think you’d better leave there]
[Boom!]
A violent explosion came through the communication.
Ye Li tapped the black ring on his wrist lightly, and after passing through a glass door, he was already in his Black Spider attire.
[Destroyer armor?]
[Since it’s here, it’s mine]
A dozen minutes later—
"Everyone, hurry and leave!"
"Everyone out! Go out the back door!"
"Hurry! Eat later!"
Jane, Darcy, Dr. Selvig, Thor, and others were hurriedly evacuating the crowd—
The Destroyer had already arrived at the city limits to find Thor.
Sif led the Warriors Three forward to stop the Destroyer from firing destructive rays at will.
However...
Bang—!
Volstagg: "Ah—!"
Bang—!
Fandral: "Oh—!"
Bang—!
Hogun: "Ugh—!"
After just a few rounds of fighting.
The Warriors Three couldn't hold on anymore and were slapped by the Destroyer into the shops on the side of the street...
The remaining goddess Sif looked at the scorching orange glow lighting up on the Destroyer and was a bit at a loss...
Barbara pulled out two short sticks and wanted to go up to help. "These gods seem unable to hold on..."
Matilda pressed Barbara down; the amplification of the serum plus the power given by Thor’s hammer made her unable to resist. "What do you want to do?"
Barbara said quickly, "I can't just watch, Matilda, you hurry and take the residents to hide; you have the hammer, your speed is faster than Darcy and the others."
Although Matilda had Thor’s hammer, Barbara still didn't want the little girl to take risks to deal with that metal monster.
"You’re just a bodyguard, Sister Barbara."
Matilda looked at the Destroyer, swung the Meow-Meow Hammer with the hammer strap, and said seriously, "Let me..."
"Hey, you’re just a little girl..."
Barbara was about to retort, but Matilda had already flown toward the Destroyer—
Clang!
The Destroyer took a hammer blow from the girl on its head, and the heat ray it was about to fire at Sif extinguished...
Click-click-click.
Its neck twisted 360 degrees, followed by its whole body rotating; the Destroyer turned to face Matilda in the blink of an eye and smashed a fist out!
Bang~
Matilda, after all, didn't have much combat experience.
The Destroyer’s turn, which defied common sense.
Only allowed her to block the Meow-Meow Hammer in front of her before being hit and stumbling to the ground.
Woo-ugh!————!!!
An orange-white beam followed, carving a deep trench in the road, and attacked the girl.
"Child!"
Sif threw the spear in her hand toward the Destroyer and shouted to Matilda to remind her, "Be careful!"
Bang~
The spear was easily swept away by the beam and couldn't produce any obstruction.
Zzz... zzz-zzz...
Blue lightning surged on the Meow-Meow Hammer, then became more and more intense, forming a thick thunder beam.
"Drink!"
Boom!!——Crackle!
Matilda condensed thunder to resist the beam, but the effect was poor; she was soon stretched thin, and the thunder was gradually pushed back by the orange light...
Although she could use the Meow-Meow Hammer, the power she exerted was still a notch weaker than when it was in Thor’s hands.
This could be seen from the fact that the girl was still in casual clothes and didn't have Thor’s armor attached to her body.
Clang...
In the end, Matilda was still swept away with the hammer, and the hammer fell to the side.
"Matilda!"
Barbara ran over quickly and helped the girl up. "How do you feel?"
"I’m fine..."
Matilda had no external injuries, and she rubbed her forehead with her slender fingers. "It’s just that my head was shaken a bit dizzy..."
She had been swept by the shockwave of the light beam hitting Thor’s hammer, but it didn't cause any major harm.
"Sorry, Sister Barbara, I tried my best..."
"It’s okay, you’ve already done great..."
"Everyone has been evacuated."
On this side, Thor looked happily at the empty street. "Thanks to that girl for stalling the Destroyer; perhaps Mjolnir choosing her was right..."
However, he hadn't been happy for long.
He saw a robust Duroc pig running around blindly in front of the Destroyer.
It seemed it was startled by this big metal guy and would occasionally bark at the Destroyer—
"Oink-oink~!"
Thor: "..."
Pig brother, you’re really something...
Loki, who was controlling the Destroyer, noticed the provocation of this stupid pig and naturally aimed the Destroyer’s open faceplate toward the pig—
The orange-white scorching glow lit up again.
"No! Buddy, hurry and dodge!"
Seeing the pig was about to become a roast pig, Thor stimulated his potential and rushed over quickly!
At the same time.
Hum-hum-hum-hum-hum—!
Mjolnir vibrated violently!!
The next moment.
Snap!
It fell into Thor’s hand, and then he threw it out, smashing the Destroyer’s head askew.
Boom!
Thunder suddenly descended from the sky, wrapping around his whole body.
After the light dissipated.
He was in the posture of Thor, the God of Thunder.
"Mjolnir!"
Thor looked at the Meow-Meow Hammer in his hand, surprised beyond measure. "You’ve returned!"
The feeling of regaining what was lost,
No amount of happiness could be too much.
Thor didn't forget he wanted to save the pig.
However, just as he was about to start showing off.
A black figure landed in front of the Destroyer first, and almost all the Earthlings present recognized him.
Jane: "This person seems to be..."
Dr. Selvig: "It’s Black Spider."
Darcy: "I’ve seen him on the news; he’s a superhero. He came to New Mexico."
Barbara had a different thought: "He appeared again... sure enough, Black Spider is related to him..."
Many clues and evidence indicated.
Ye Li was very likely Black Spider.
Barbara, however, only thought Ye Li and Black Spider had a good relationship; she just didn't associate them in that way... This was because of high-dimensional information blocking, which was shielding such thoughts.
With the system battle suit’s information state shielding function.
