Chapter 19
The elderly version of Loki, the true number one mage of the Nine Realms!
He can teleport, create projection duplicates that are practically tangible, and can even create similar duplicates for others.
The most impressive thing is that he can manifest the entire Asgard based on his memories.
The meme 'Asgard rises from the flat ground' comes from this!
In his timeline, when Thanos attacked Asgard's escape ship, he used a duplicate to assassinate Thanos, successfully deceiving the Thanos who possessed the Infinity Stones and escaping with his life.
Afterward, he hid on a desolate planet to live in seclusion until he grew old; missing his brother, he wanted to see him one last time, and then—he was discovered by the Time Variance Authority.
Whether the death is real or fake, as long as one follows the 'script' of the Sacred Timeline and obediently kicks the bucket when encountering Thanos's attack on the Asgardian escape ship, that is a good Loki!
Elderly Loki is clearly not the good Loki recognized by the Time Variance Authority, because he went back online, which would cause related events and lead to new time branches, so he was pruned.
"Are you a Loki too?" Elderly Loki slowly stood up, brushed the dust off his body, and teased with a relaxed demeanor: "No matter the environment, a Loki can always survive, it's just that—"
"The Lokis that appear are getting stranger and stranger; now there's even an Asian Loki."
Elderly Loki saying this clearly means he has seen other Lokis, which means the Lokis have been surviving in the Void for a long time.
Su Quan hadn't discovered any version of Loki during his previous visits; one has to say, Loki's survival ability is truly strong!
"I am not Loki." Su Quan shook his head in denial.
If you aren't Loki, why aren't you surprised or afraid when you see me?
After all, no matter which timeline a Loki is from, they can't be a good person, because that is Loki's destiny!
And if you aren't Loki, how could you recognize me as Loki at a glance?
Only a Loki understands a Loki best!
"It doesn't matter if you don't admit it. Do you know what this place is? The Void, the junkyard of timelines; everything thrown here will be swallowed by that big guy Alioth just now."
"The only ones who can survive here are Lokis!"
There are many Lokis in the Void, basically divided into two camps:
One is the 'Old, Weak, Sick, and Disabled' camp where Elderly Loki resides.
The members are 'Old' Elderly Loki, 'Weak' Kid Loki, 'Sick' Black Loki, and 'Disabled' Alligator Loki.
The other is the ragtag Loki camp ruled by President Loki, who looks the same as the main timeline Loki.
Although the 'Old, Weak, Sick, and Disabled' camp has few people, they are not truly old, weak, sick, or disabled.
Elderly Loki, the true number one mage of the Nine Realms.
Kid Loki, a ruthless person who killed Thor and has survived in the Void for at least a thousand years; he is also the 'King' of the squad.
Black Loki, who has a hammer suspected to be Mjolnir, claims to have defeated Captain America and Iron Man, and obtained all the Infinity Stones—there is a suspicion of bragging.
Alligator Loki, which ate its neighbor's cat; well, this doesn't count, but its strength lies in its bite force; in Loki's solo series, it bit off President Loki's arm.
Although the President Loki camp has more people, they are basically mediocre ragtags.
As everyone knows, Loki's two major 'skills' are faking death and betrayal; even as ragtags, they have the ideals and pursuits of becoming king.
Deception, infighting, betrayal, and counter-betrayal are the norm in this camp!
These two Loki camps and Alioth are problems Su Quan must solve to control the Void and the endless resources within it.
Elderly Loki, unconcerned, talked to himself, waved at him, and turned to walk in a certain direction.
After walking a few steps, he turned his head to look at Su Quan, who remained where he was, with no surprise on his face.
Still saying you aren't Loki—
Loki, after all, is conceited and arrogant, and won't easily trust anyone; I get it!
Elderly Loki stubbornly believed Su Quan was also a Loki; Su Quan denied it, he didn't believe him, so—let's just go with that!
What do you do when you encounter a fool in life?
Support all his views and cultivate him into a big fool!
Although Su Quan appreciated Elderly Loki, it didn't stop him from complaining. You insist I'm Loki? Fine, I won't deny it anymore; anyway, being mistaken for a Loki makes it easier to interact with you all.
Following Elderly Loki, the two climbed mountains and crossed ridges for about half an hour, arriving near the wreckage of the helicopter with Thanos's name on it.
The dignified cosmic tyrant Thanos actually flew a helicopter?
At first glance it seems absurd, but in early comics, Thanos did indeed fly a helicopter on Earth and even attacked Hellcat.
That is, Jessica Jones's sister, Trish Walker!
There is a picture of Thanos being taken away by the police, which is also the same event.
In addition, it is said that the inspiration for Thanos's weapon, the Thanos-Copter, came from a helicopter propeller!
On a high slope nearby, Elderly Loki opened the 'manhole cover' of the underground castle and brought Su Quan inside.

The underground castle has a world of its own, with a different scene inside.
Several vending machines were neatly lined up against the wall, various chairs were stacked in an orderly fashion, and not-so-bright lights illuminated the hall below.
At the very top of the hall was a short flight of stairs, on which sat a 'throne', and on the throne sat a teenager holding an alligator, who was currently sizing up Su Quan, who had come down the stairs from the entrance with Elderly Loki.
Below the throne were several sofas, and on one of them sat a black man wearing armor and holding a hammer.
The style and layout of the entire underground castle had a strong vibe of a post-apocalyptic survivor base!
Arriving nearby, Su Quan drank the red wine handed to him by Elderly Loki while thinking about how to rearrange this place.
Life didn't teach him anything, only four words: If you like it, take it!
The glory of the Quandou Society starts with recruiting staff; the first step to becoming the Lord of the Void starts with seizing the throne and becoming the new king of this underground castle.
"This place is not bad; now—it belongs to me!" Su Quan issued his declaration under the gaze of the four Lokis.
"……"
Su Quan's words were shocking, but the Lokis reacted calmly.
"Another guy chasing the throne; you should have let him fend for himself outside." Black Loki complained to Elderly Loki, stood up, and pointed his hammer at Su Quan.
"You have two choices: stay here obediently, or—be killed by me!"
"Kindly reminding you, I defeated Captain America and Iron Man and obtained all six Infinity Stones, so you cannot possibly be my oppo—nent—"
