Chapter 323

Just after Loki finished speaking, Shiler turned his head and gave Strange a look.

Then, Shiler turned back, looked at Peter sitting on the sofa next to him and said: "Peter, I heard that your handicraft is good. Can you help us make a large lightning rod and install it on the roof of the house?"

"Lightning rod? What do you need a lightning rod for?"

Peter didn't react at first, but when his eyes swept over Loki and thought of Norse mythology, he suddenly realized.

"Oh, right! Lightning rod! She might indeed need a lightning rod, but can the lightning rod used by humans really withstand the thunder of the God of Thunder?"

"If you think an ordinary lightning rod can't, then can you think of a way to manufacture a lightning rod that can withstand the power of the God of Thunder?" Shiler reached out and patted Peter on the shoulder and said: "Stark has been telling me that you have a talent in this area. I believe you won't let us down, right?"

Peter nodded seriously, stood up and said: "Okay, I'll go study it. If there is news, I'll call."

When he got up, Steve looked at the faces of Shiler and Strange. He also stood up and said: "That pile of trouble caused by skeletons and spirits still needs to be solved. I'm going to Eddie's place to see if he can write a report to appease the public. You guys talk first..."

Saying that, he also got up and left.

After Peter and Steve both left, Loki, who was sitting upright on the chair, breathed a sigh of relief. She reached out and put on her hood. After the halo behind her disappeared, she leaned back on the chair.

"Okay, people whose moral bottom line hasn't been tested have left, next is our time." Shiler said while standing up, taking a bottle of sherry from the wine cabinet.

Strange set out the transparent wine glasses and said to Loki: "The gentlemen have left, you can tell the other version of the story."

Loki sank most of her face into the shadow of the hood, revealing only a fair chin. She put her hands on the armrests of the sofa, sighed slightly, and said: "Seriously, how did you guys do it? How did you let these two people find me first? If they weren't there, would I need to talk nonsense for so long?"

"Don't complain. The place where you made the movement was too close to Peter's home. He would definitely investigate. As for Steve, wherever there is trouble, he is there, Captain America, you know."

Shiler reached out to pour wine for several people. Loki leaned forward, touched a box of cigars from under the coffee table, and while cutting the cigar, said: "That idiot Lei Shen who only grows strength but not brains, if he goes back to Asgard like this, the situation will not change at all. What about the new god position? Is Odin not powerful enough? But can he stop the Asgardians from embarking on the road of destruction because of being warlike?"

"So, what did you do?"

"I persuaded Lei Shen to stay on Sakaar to save the slaves there. The funny thing is, he even thought I had turned over a new leaf and washed my face. Actually, I just wanted to drag him there. I have things to do when I come back..."

"I just said your story was weird. How did you fall into the mine of Sakaar rock and happen to be teleported to Hela's death kingdom? Actually, you aimed at the target, right?" Shiler brought an ice bucket and used tweezers to add ice cubes to the wine.

"That's right, but the story about Sakaar is also true. Venom didn't know what was wrong, he had to fall in love. Even if he didn't consider that Sif would be the future Queen, I shouldn't have gotten too close to her, because what she represents is the warlike faction of Asgard."

Loki leaned on the sofa and sighed, saying: "I have been on Earth for so long, and I have also understood your society. I found that Asgard and Earth society are almost exactly the same, but the difference is that because we are all soldiers, the entire Asgardian society is on a chariot and cannot stop at all."

"We are almost there too." Strange took a sip of wine and said: "War is the best way to transfer internal contradictions. When the vested interests enjoy the benefits, they will not consider at all whether this will lead the whole country to a road of destruction."

Loki snapped his fingers and said: "That's it, Asgard is also like this. The wheels of our war have been turning for too long. Those who have enjoyed everything in the process of war are not willing to let it stop. Everything in our society serves conquest. If such a society can last long, it's hell."

"The road of destruction always has an end..." Shiler raised his glass and touched it with Loki, saying: "Endless entropy increase will bring this universe to an end."

"Exactly, so, to reverse the fate of Asgard, we must first let this chariot that has been driving for too long stop."

"But this is not so easy." Strange frowned and said: "If the story you told us about Baldur is true, then who dares to say that Hela launching a war of destruction has no push from that group of warlike Asgardians?"

"Odin also knows this. Hela's betrayal and Baldur's decline are the prices the All-Father paid to rein in the warhorse."

"But he failed. Asgardians still hope for a powerful new king who can lead them to continue to conquer the universe. For this reason, they were incomparably happy when they felt Lei Shen's powerful new god power." Shiler also sighed.

"Lei Shen has already figured this out, but you can't expect him to understand the twists and turns between the various forces in Asgard, especially since his relationship with Sif is still very subtle. Obviously, Sif represents that group of people to welcome Lei Shen back."

"I can hear that, from an objective standpoint, you don't have such great malice towards Sif. Why is this?" Strange asked Loki.
