Chapter 1109: Father and Son (45)

In the dim prison cell, a girl in a white dress huddled in the corner. Soon, a long black shadow was cast on the cell wall, and a blue-skinned figure appeared at the cell door.

"Do you still remember me?" A man's voice echoed in the empty room. He snapped his fingers lightly, and with a "click," the door lock opened.

When the blue figure walked into the cell, the color of his skin filled the room with cold light.

The girl remained squatting in place, hugging her legs, not looking up at all. So, he reached out a finger and flicked it to one side, and the slightly thin female figure was thrown to the ground.

"Oh, I forgot, I don't think I've told you my name yet..." The man's voice carried a hint of playfulness. He said, "Although it's not really necessary, you'd better remember it. I am called Kang; you can also call me Kang the Conqueror."

After speaking, he stepped closer, squatted down, and looked at Loki's face, saying, "I didn't expect that in just a few days, you'd have grown so much. But back then, I knew you would be a beauty."

After speaking, Kang the Conqueror stood up again and walked slowly toward the door, leaving only his back to Loki. He snapped his fingers again, and a chair appeared in the center of the room.

The next second, Loki appeared on the chair, her limbs, neck, and waist all fixed in place. Kang the Conqueror suddenly turned around again and said to her, "Let's continue chatting about the previous topic."

"Why did you disappear?" Loki deliberately imitated Sylvie's slightly hoarse voice and asked, "And why did you appear?"

Kang the Conqueror laughed twice and said, "I just went out for a few days. For you, it might have been hundreds or thousands of years, but for me, it was just an instant."

"You long-lived species always feel that you are very noble, but you will always die with the passage of time. All lives that haven't jumped out of time are as humble as ants."

Loki stared straight into Kang the Conqueror's eyes and said, "Really? Is it really because you didn't want to come back that you didn't?"

"Then why do you look so tired and exhausted?"

Kang the Conqueror's expression stiffened, but soon, his expression returned to normal. However, Loki keenly noticed that the corner of Kang the Conqueror's eye twitched; he was probably cursing in his heart.

This time, she guessed right. Kang the Conqueror had gone through a lot of trouble to return here.

Perhaps many people have already guessed why he was trapped outside. Back then, Schiller ran amok throughout the Marvel Universe and angered the OAA, who kicked Schiller's multiverse out of the Marvel World.

Kang the Conqueror can travel through time lines and the multiverse, it's true, but breaking through the barrier of the Great World is a bit difficult for him.

When he left, the entire universe was still in the Great World, but when he wanted to go home, he couldn't find it no matter what.

And why he was able to come back is actually an accident. There are countless Kangs the Conqueror in countless universes, and most of them are in a life-or-death relationship; when they meet, they definitely have to fight.

Most Kangs the Conqueror have their own territory, and if they can't win, they can go home and hide. However, this Kang the Conqueror, the director of the Time Variance Authority in this universe, had no home; he could only wander in various universes.

Very unfortunately, he met several of himself and was chased all the way, passing through countless universes. Then, by chance, he found a hole in a certain universe.

Kang the Conqueror, who has rich experience in traveling through universes, keenly felt that this hole was not simple. At that time, he had already been chased into a panic, jumping up and down, with nowhere to escape, so he could only jump down the hole.

Next, Kang the Conqueror was dazed for a moment and appeared in a magnificent temple. He considered himself to have a very good understanding of the universe, but he didn't know that there was such a place in the universe.

That's right, the reason Kang the Conqueror was able to come back was that Schiller had built a subway for Eternity to commute every day, and he had mistakenly followed this subway to Eternity's temple.

At that time, Eternity had gone to work, and because of the barrier of the Great World, he didn't feel that his temple had been invaded.

Kang the Conqueror wanted to loot the temple, but in fact, there was nothing in Eternity's temple. After walking around and gaining nothing, he wanted to leave.

However, Eternity's temple is not in any position in the universe. This dimension is completely independent of the multiverse. Except for characters of the caliber of Deadpool, it is impossible for anyone to leave here smoothly.

Fortunately, although Eternity's temple's space is not in the multiverse, its time line is still in the universe's time line. Kang the Conqueror possesses infinite time, and he adopted a method that was the most efficient relative to the abilities he possessed—to put it bluntly, the exhaustive method.

He tried various breakthrough methods without stopping for a moment. After trying for thousands of years, he finally found a way to break through space along the time line.

Therefore, the fatigue Loki saw on his face was not fake. This Kang the Conqueror hadn't suffered such a big loss since he was born.

First, he was beaten black and blue by his counterpart in the Great World, and after finally running out, he was trapped in a place where he had to repeatedly try escape methods for thousands of years.

What made Kang the Conqueror feel the most collapsed was that he didn't know why all this was happening.

He didn't even know what had happened. After going on a business trip, his home was gone. To go home, he had to play a room escape game for thousands of years. After finally escaping, he found that the universe hadn't changed much, and he was the only one who suffered.

Loki thought for a moment and realized that the things Schiller had caused would not be easily solved by Kang the Conqueror. He must have paid a huge price to come back.

So, she sneered and said, "Has anyone ever said that you look like a drowned dog right now, Director?"

"I don't want to talk to an alien who hasn't bathed for thousands of years and exudes a stench. You are even smellier than the constant-victory kid on the Asgard training ground."

The next second, Loki felt that she was strangled by an invisible force. She felt that her own time was gradually slowing down, but she was helpless and unable to reverse it.

Kang the Conqueror's face turned completely black, but soon, he returned to calm and looked at Loki, saying, "You haven't changed at all in so many years. Do I need to remind you? You are just trash and waste thrown out by Asgard."

"You and Thor are both Odin's children, but the throne is hers. Do you know why? It's because you are too unlikable." Kang the Conqueror looked at Loki and said, "No one in Asgard likes you, and no one here does either."

"Listen, Loki, we are in the same boat." Kang the Conqueror slowed his tone again and said, "When I was young, I was also the one who was excluded. I know how vicious those people are, and I know how painful you are."

"We are the same kind of people. I can fully understand your sadness. I brought you here without hurting you because I hope that people like us can unite and give them a little color to see."

"Don't you want revenge? Don't you want to let them experience your pain?"

But to Kang the Conqueror's surprise, Loki shook her head and said, "During the time you were away, I thought a lot..."

"Let's hear it." Kang the Conqueror walked to Loki, bent down, rested his hands on the armrests, and looked down at Loki.

"I've figured it out." Loki tilted her head and looked into Kang the Conqueror's eyes, saying, "The throne should indeed be Thor's, because she is more excellent than me. I will honor her as the new King of Asgard and become her most loyal subject, forever loyal to her."

Kang the Conqueror widened his eyes slowly. He stared at Loki with an expression of disbelief, and even put his hand on her forehead to touch it, then touched his own forehead.

"What did you just say?!" Kang the Conqueror asked loudly.

"I said, I honor Thor—"

"The sentence before that!"

"During the time you were away, I thought a lot."

"Dog shit!" Kang the Conqueror cursed. He stood up and began to pace back and forth in the room quickly, his anger almost uncontrollable.

Originally, suffering this unprovoked disaster was enough to make him angry, but what he didn't expect was that the disadvantages brought by this incident were even greater than he had imagined.

The originally shallow, ignorant, and easy-to-tease little girl had now figured it out herself?!

Just because he didn't strike while the iron was hot and use torture on Loki, he might have missed the best opportunity to ask her about the secret. Kang the Conqueror was going crazy.

Kang the Conqueror is not a very emotional person. If he can find a target for revenge, he will definitely be very calm and wait for an opportunity. But the problem is that he can't even find the enemy.

What made him even more angry was that he had just expressed to Loki that I had also been bullied and we were the same kind of people, but Loki turned around and stood on the side of the bully, and even swore to be loyal to them. This made Kang the Conqueror look like a clown who showed his heart to a blind man.

The full-blown anger could no longer be suppressed. Kang the Conqueror turned his head suddenly, stared at Loki's face, and gritted his teeth.

"You are loyal to that group of vicious people who once bullied you?! You damn spineless person and traitor! It's because of people like you that they dare to be so unscrupulous... I will make you pay the price!"

After speaking, he reached out and strangled Loki's neck tightly. But the next second, another pair of hands lifted from Loki's arms. Obviously, what the chair locked was just Loki's phantom.

Loki grabbed Kang the Conqueror's arm, seemingly producing an instinctive resistance due to the pain of suffocation, but Kang the Conqueror offered an evil smile and took a few steps back.

Kang the Conqueror saw the phantom of Loki's arm slowly dissipate, but he ignored it because he knew no one could escape his palm.

The next second, a dagger appeared in his hand. He walked to Loki again, bent down, and tapped Loki's cheek lightly with the cold blade of the dagger, saying, "Loyal subject, hmm?"

"Sizzle!"

The dagger flashed with cold light, and Loki's face tilted to one side.

When she turned back, a long cut appeared on her cheek.

Kang the Conqueror slowly brought his face close to Loki's face until the tips of their noses were about to touch. He examined Loki's eyes carefully, wanting to see fear and pain in them.

But there was no intense emotion in Loki's eyes. Kang the Conqueror only saw a hint of a smile in the depths of her eyes.

Loki reached out both hands, grabbed Kang the Conqueror's face tightly, and looked into his eyes.

There was a kind of shimmer in Loki's eyes that fascinated Kang the Conqueror. He was dazed for a moment, so he didn't notice the blood dripping down Loki's chin onto the Mjolnir at her waist.

A few seconds later, the thunderous light came with unstoppable power, and a roar resounded through the sky.

"LOKI!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"CRACK!!!!"

Watching Kang the Conqueror being struck to the ground by the thunder, Loki slowly knelt beside him from the chair.

Kang the Conqueror turned his head. In the dizziness, he saw the faint light outside the window shining on Loki's face, reflecting a hazy radiance.

The girl raised her head, reached out, and touched her cheek, letting the blood flow from her fingertips into her palm. When she held up her own blood, it was like holding deep red silk.

There was neither a smile nor triumph in her eyes, only a kind of innocent cruelty.

Kang the Conqueror heard, outside the rumbling thunder, the soft white light and the girl's light sigh drifting away together.

"Loyal subject? No—"

"He is my loyal subject."
