I didn't expect a big shot like you to come to our little place... for fun?\" Coulson still wore his good-natured smile and came forward to greet him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your esteemed presence truly brightens our humble abode.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Coulson could continue, Aaron said directly, \"Alright, no more nonsense. I want that hammer.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Coulson, who was about to speak, swallowed his words and immediately objected, \"I'm sorry, I can't make decisions on this matter. That hammer now belongs to S.H.I.E.L.D.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey buddy, when did it become your hammer?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Damn it, I'm going to duel you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let you arrogant and rude Midgardians know what the wrath of the God of Thunder is.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as Thor heard this, how could his fiery temper endure it? He rolled up his sleeves and was ready to fight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had lost his Divine Power and might not be able to take on a God of Thunder like Aaron, but dealing with two or three ordinary Midgardians was not much pressure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Coulson glanced at Thor, his thoughts changing, but the smile on his face remained unchanged. \"Mr. Aaron's friend... is there something wrong here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He pointed to his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thor glared. \"Your brain is sick! I'm going to have a glorious warrior's duel with you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Whether it's a one-on-one or a group fight, you decide!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you sure?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Coulson's smile remained, but a dozen burly men stepped out beside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The people walking nearby also took a step forward simultaneously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The men were muscular and had cold expressions, while the women also looked tough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the distance, there were also snipers aiming in this direction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And in the sky above, a figure, hidden in the darkness, drew a bow and arrow, aiming at Thor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But no one dared to aim at Aaron.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thor looked around, weighed the pros and cons, and then looked at Aaron. \"Friend, we are both God of Thunders, you will definitely help me, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aaron's expression turned cold. \"Coulson, if you can't make a decision, then let someone who can make a decision come over.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Director, he...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Coulson still wanted to play dumb.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aaron called someone right in front of him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your call.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aaron handed it to Coulson.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Coulson immediately felt overwhelmed, sensing a bad feeling. Looking at the unfamiliar, unknown phone, he hesitated but took it anyway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hello, I am S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent Coulson.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is the White House. If you have any issues, let Fury talk to you. Right now, you must satisfy all the demands of Mr. Aaron, immediately, right now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mr. President.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Coulson was helpless. If you have a problem, discuss it properly. Why call the President's private line over a slight disagreement?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Coulson immediately called Fury.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, Fury's helpless voice came from the other end of the phone. \"Coulson, let him do whatever he wants. Just keep a close eye on him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fury was truly helpless. The President had called him and chewed him out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fury wanted to retort: \"Everything I do is for the safety of the U.S.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the President was more direct: \"You have an opinion? Then talk to me? Talk to Congress? Talk to the Federal Court?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And then talk to all the generals, marshals, high officials, politicians, and capitalists?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, if you mention the people, then I'm not tired anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"After June 5th, let's see who can truly represent the people.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'll tell you the truth, Fury. You and I are nothing. Aaron is the one who truly represents the will of the entire U.S. population and even the world's population.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seriously? If I don't let Aaron access Object 084, am I making an enemy of the world?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I protect the safety of the U.S. and maintain human peace by stopping Aaron, but I end up standing against the people?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Oh God, has God abandoned this land? To actually let an unknown person represent the will of the U.S. population.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fury was helpless. He could ignore others, but he couldn't disregard the President's words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, he desperately wanted to establish the Avengers quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only by bringing out this supernatural team and placing it under the United Nations could he, to some extent, break free from direct federal government control.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only then would he have some right to speak out and object.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fury deliberately avoided thinking about whether Aaron also represented the will of the United Nations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Coulson hung up the phone. His eyes, looking at Aaron, were filled with confusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Something was wrong. Usually, they were the ones who played this game. They never paid any mind to the FBI or the military.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, how did S.H.I.E.L.D. end up being summoned and reprimanded at will by an outsider?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mr. Coulson, you wouldn't want to go against the will of all U.S. citizens, would you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aaron smiled kindly, and without waiting for him to speak, walked inside with Thor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Times have changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as I control the newborn, before the formula is leaked, my word is God's will.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fighting and killing is too boring.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Subduing the enemy without fighting is the highest level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thor followed along dazedly. His brain couldn't process things immediately, but when he saw mjolnir, he instantly gasped and ran over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Buddy, I finally see you again.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Coulson and the others behind them wanted to stop them but couldn't, watching helplessly as Aaron and Thor approached the hammer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damn it, they are S.H.I.E.L.D.!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In this day and age, does S.H.I.E.L.D. no longer have any pull?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My friend, thank you very much for your help. Now, I am going to pick up mjolnir and restore my power.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Afterward, you will gain the friendship of Asgard and mine. Midgard and Asgard will also have lasting friendship. Except for those people, of course.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thor held the hammer and grinned foolishly at Aaron, then changed his expression when looking at Coulson and the others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Now, the time to witness a miracle has come.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thor tried to lift mjolnir, but couldn't.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked up and gave Aaron an awkward smile. \"I need to prepare myself mentally.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took a deep breath and used all his strength, while muttering, \"Come on, baby. Have you forgotten the days we fought side by side?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't be like this. I know I let you down by leaving you alone here, enduring the torment of those wretched Midgardians for a day, but I promise, this is the first time, and it will be the last time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Come on, let's get moving.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Please, I beg you, mjolnir, I am Thor Odinson. At least, give me some reaction.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mjolnir flashed, and then dimmed again under Thor's surprised gaze. It still didn't lift.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh no! You really just gave me a little reaction?\" Thor was terrified.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Need help?\" Aaron chuckled lightly, finding Thor's appearance somewhat amusing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He admitted that he was currently deriving his happiness from the suffering of others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The more Thor had boasted before, the more embarrassed he was now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Cough, cough. Alright, there are some minor issues currently, but trust me, I can handle it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just as I have defeated many arrogant enemies.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thor forced a smile, not wanting to disgrace the reputation of Asgard in front of a deity from another realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aaron nodded understandingly. \"I know, there are always bumps in the road of life. That's normal.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, exactly. But this is just a small stone on the road of life, and I will deal with it quickly.\" Thor still wanted to try.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Aaron spoke at this moment, \"How about letting me try?\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1256,"2026-06-05T16:52:19.138Z",1,"novelbin.me","6ba5428cb60ff783e2683135a4cf31ae87f46ecff1f30f7a388587a43cfaa701","marvel-the-devourer-chapter-58","marvel-the-devourer-chapter-56",363,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fmarvel-the-devourer-cover.jpg"]
