Chapter 239: The Death of Loki

~10 min read 1,935 words

On the wilderness of Xinmoxigezhou, the battle was in full swing, or rather, actually, not long after Strange left, the situation had deteriorated to a point where it could not be controlled at all.

Sif was carrying a great sword, her right shoulder had been bleeding, that was scratched by rock fragments blown up by the scorching ray before.

Originally, when Asgardians fought, there would be a layer of divine power armor outside the body, but Sif's divine power was almost exhausted, so she could only protect the key parts of her body, thus receiving not small explosion splash damage.

"This is not right!!" Volstagg roared: "The Destroyer was parked in the Xiangong warehouse for hundreds of years, it shouldn't have such sufficient divine power energy!"

"The one driving it is Loki, he just promoted to the divine office of a righteous god, did you forget?!"

The sky over Xinmoxigezhou was also covered with layers of dark clouds. When the rain fell, the cold wind on the wilderness kept howling.

"Damn it..." Thor's arms were trembling a bit. He tried countless times to communicate with Mjolnir and the power of lightning as he did in the past, but nothing responded to him.

"My Iceberg Beauty Wife"

"Thor..." Sif's voice was still low and steady, but Thor heard the trembling in her voice. She said: "We will fight for you until the end, for Asgard..."

"We will never let such a despicable villain ascend to the throne of Asgard!" Volstagg roared: "Loki! You will never be the king in the hearts of the Asgardians!"

"Even if you kill Thor, kill us, you will never become the All-Father!" Saying this, Volstagg raised his heavy hammer again and attacked the Destroyer. Hogun and Fandral followed behind him.

Sif, whose divine power was exhausted, could no longer stand. She used her great sword to support her body and whispered a prayer: "All-Father, if I die, please grant me the opportunity to enter the hall, I will continue to fight for the land I love deeply..."

Thor's eye sockets were red. He looked at the huge mecha that looked particularly ferocious in the storm. The rain made his long hair stick tightly to his forehead.

Watching a destruction ray sweep over, Volstagg was thrown heavily to the ground, spitting blood from his mouth. Thor had never felt so helpless. The rage made him burn up, and the cold rain couldn't extinguish this fighting spirit.

Finally, Sif also fell to the ground. She was grabbed by the Destroyer and thrown to the ground like a sandbag. Fandral, who had lost an arm, was still crawling on the ground, wanting to continue attacking the Destroyer, but was kicked away by the huge monster. Thor could see that the divine power on his companions began to dissipate, and even the divine offices began to be drawn away.

The light points of the World Tree shone around them. If no one could save them, soon, they would return to the World Tree again.

Thor knew that this was just a beautiful fantasy of the Asgardians. Valhalla and the World Tree were just another way of saying death. He knew very well that even if Sif entered Valhalla as she wished, it would no longer be her.

Just then, a sound of breaking through the air rang out, and a shining mecha flew from the horizon. Iron Man floated in mid-air, hitting the Destroyer with the ray from his palm, but the defense that divine power couldn't break, human technological weapons couldn't break either.

The one driving this huge weapon was Loki. He was not a brute who only knew how to charge forward like those in Asgard. Seeing Stark pull up again, the Destroyer's eyes flashed. Stark knew early on that he was going to release a ray, so he controlled the mecha to dodge to the right.

But the Destroyer suddenly stretched out an arm and grabbed at Stark's mecha. Stark couldn't dodge in time, was pinched by one leg, and then thrown out.

"No!!!!" Thor shouted.

If fighting and even dying in battle were the destiny of Asgardians and where their honor lay, then Earthlings were completely innocent victims. Thor absolutely could not accept that Earth's superheroes died in this battle.

On the way Iron Man flew out, he slowed down slowly and finally landed steadily. He controlled the mecha to approach the Destroyer again. At this time, a huge lizard monster also jumped over, followed by Spider-Man.

In the past, the lizard monster that Dr. Connors turned into was already big enough, but compared to this behemoth five or six hundred meters tall, it still looked very thin and small, and Iron Man and Spider-Man were even smaller, like the raindrops falling at this moment.

The three of them entangled with the Destroyer, actually it couldn't be called entanglement, it was just the Destroyer constantly attacking them, and the three of them were dodging.

Thor's heart was colder than the cold rain. At this moment, he was full of despair. He didn't know why his brother betrayed him, his comrades fell, Earth's superheroes also fell into danger, and he couldn't do anything.

Just at this time, Loki's voice came from the Destroyer: "Thor Odinson, do you intend to just watch?"

"Look at them... your good companions!" Saying this, the Destroyer kicked Hogun on the ground again, saying: "After I solve these annoying flies, I will kill them, and now..."

Loki's cold laughter came from the Destroyer. He manipulated the Destroyer to step on Hogun, making a tooth-aching creaking sound. Hogun let out a suffocating scream. By the time Loki took the Destroyer's foot away, he had completely lost consciousness.

Volstagg and Fandral cursed, Sif couldn't say anything anymore, Thor was trembling all over.

The difficult years on Earth began to smooth out the pride brought by past honors. The despair and heartache of watching his companions walk toward death and watching innocent people suffer disaster made Thor go crazy.

"Thor, do you feel very heartbroken? Feel that you owe your companions?"

"But I want to tell you, they came to find you not because they were worried about you, but because they were worried about themselves, worried about their own families."

"He and his family hope you become the King of Asgard, so they have always ignored me. After the All-Father fell asleep, they couldn't wait anymore, Thor... they want you to give them a promise, promising that you will continue to lead them to fight, satisfying their ridiculous and empty sense of honor..."

"For this, they would do anything..."

"How can you say such things!" Thor roared at the Destroyer: "You hurt them! You betrayed..."

"If you dare to continue, I will kill her now." The Destroyer grabbed Sif lying on the ground. In a hazy state of consciousness, Sif saw Loki's cold expression through the Destroyer's armor.

"Thor, why don't you understand? They just want to force you to give a promise, using those words of honor to make you a machine of war. This will eventually lead Asgard to the abyss of destruction..."

"They surround you, respect you, call you king, just because this can lead them to fight, satisfying the violence and desire for conquest in their bones. It has been like this from the beginning."

The Destroyer's hand squeezed tighter and tighter, Sif let out a painful low moan, "Look, just like her... their families sent them to your side early, to make them your lovers, your guards."

"And then when you ascend the throne, they can become the great generals of Asgard, the commanders of the royal guards, and the God Queen above ten thousand people..."

"For this, they will flatter you and slander me. For this, there is nothing they wouldn't do..."

Rainwater hit the Destroyer's arm, and blood seeped out from between the Destroyer's fingers.

"Don't! Loki... I beg you, let go of Sif, she is innocent..."

Thor said with a trembling voice: "It's not like that, Loki, Loki... I know there are many people slandering you, I know there are many hateful rumors in Asgard..."

"I know, Volstagg and the others sometimes speak too directly, but you are really my brother, we are brothers..."

Just then, a sound of breaking through the air rang out, Iron Man's mecha suddenly pulled up, Lizard Doctor and Spider-Man retreated rapidly, and then, a portal lit up in mid-air, and a bomb with cold light was thrown down.

Iron Man pressed several buttons on his arm, several drones flew out from behind his mecha, hitting the bomb. Iron Man also retreated rapidly, and the drones carried the bomb toward the huge Destroyer.

The moment the bomb touched the Destroyer, first a small snowflake bloomed from the contact surface, followed by countless brilliant ice crystals blooming from the sharp corners of the snowflake. Silently, the ice crystals spread on the Destroyer's armor at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Within a single breath, the Destroyer's chest was completely covered by blue ice crystals, followed by the arms and legs. Finally, before the cockpit with the most concentrated divine power was frozen, Loki flew out from inside.

The Fire God's divine power shone around him, and a more violent power descended. Countless flames rose from mid-air, and then several fire dragons rotated and flew toward Sif and the Three Warriors of Asgard on the ground.

Instantly, Loki's figure disappeared, and then appeared in front of Thor. Countless flames turned the falling rain into steam. Loki raised a hand, and a huge arm made of flames grabbed Thor, taking him into mid-air.

Above the pitch-black rainy night, only firelight flickered. Countless flames lifted them up. Loki looked at Thor and said: "If you cannot understand who is the one who wove lies to deceive you, and who is the one who wants to pierce the lies to save you, then go die with these hypocritical and selfish people."

Saying this, he contracted his fingers, and the flame arm squeezed Thor's neck fiercely. Thor's face turned blue and purple. In the few seconds before he lost consciousness, he saw the starlight behind Loki becoming brighter and brighter, and a familiar light came from far to near. Thor widened his eyes and shouted with all his remaining strength: "That is... Rainbow Bridge! Loki!! Dodge quickly!!!!"

But it was too late. A light chain with incomparably violent power, with psychedelic colors like a rainbow, lit up from the starry sky and instantly hit Loki's back.

Thor, facing Loki, saw the extremely painful expression Loki had never shown before, and then in an instant, he was shattered.

Time froze, the starry sky was brilliant, and Loki shattered into light points in the rainbow light and fantasy colors.

The light of divine power erupted, almost turning into another sun. Thor saw that before Loki's flesh dissipated, he had been staring at him. After the extremely painful expression flashed away, it was helplessness and despair in the face of death.

Thor saw with his own eyes that the light of the World Tree suddenly lit up, the divine office of the Fire God was completely drawn away, and the divine power, together with the divine office, paused in place for a moment, then surged into Thor's body.

"No!! Loki!!!!!"

After Thor roared desperately, a channel like a black hole opened above his head, and a huge suction force sucked Thor into it, and then everything returned to tranquility, leaving only endless rain lines and the starry sky that dimmed again. ===== CHAPTER 240 =====
