Chapter 229: Asgard Comes
Chapter 229: Asgard Comes
"Oh damn it, test that part again!" Thor stood up from the ground and kicked the tire next to him. A colleague handed him a wrench and Thor crouched down to continue working on the tire.
After a while, he threw the wrench down and patted the car roof, saying, "Okay, this should be the last one for today, right?"
"Hey! Benjamin, what's wrong? Help! Someone help, Benjamin's fainted!" A shout came from outside the workshop, and Thor turned his head to see a colleague shouting outside while another colleague named Benjamin collapsed on the ground.
Thor walked out quickly and asked, "What's going on? What happened to Benjamin?"
"Damn it! He seems to have a heart attack! Call for an ambulance!"
Colleagues rushed out, some performing CPR on Benjamin while others called for an ambulance on their mobile phones. Thor also helped.
Soon, the ambulance arrived, and several nurses ran down from the vehicle and saw Benjamin lying on the ground. One of the female nurses said, "Help me lift him up and put him in the car first!"
Thor went over and carried Benjamin up by himself. The female nurse looked him up and down, then pointed to the stretcher next to her and said, "Put him up first, hurry!"
When Thor returned from the hospital, the repair shop owner didn't look very good. He said to Thor, "You saw it, Benjamin collapsed on his own, right? It has nothing to do with my repair shop..."
Thor's face became gloomy, and he said, "If you hadn't arranged him to work the night shift for over ten nights in a row, how could he have died suddenly?""What's it to me!" the bearded owner shouted loudly, "He's a poor guy who eats junk food every day, so his health is not good! He deserved to die, and he even made it difficult for me to find a worker for tomorrow night!"
Thor glared at him, his eyes full of anger, like a lion. The owner was intimidated by his power, but soon he waved his fists and said, "What are you looking at, you stupid bull! You have to continue working the night shift, you know why? Because you're a stupid Texan, you have no brain! You can't even speak clearly!"
"I will tell them that if you ever collapse on the ground one day, I will make sure they stay far away from you!"
"Why do you have no sympathy for your fellow workers?" Thor stood still and said in a low voice, "Do you know he has died?"
"Fellow worker? Idiot!" The repair shop owner spat and said, "He's just a black guy who was eliminated from the boxing ring. He eats leftovers from the garbage dump every day. It's good enough that I gave him a job. He's a waste even in death, and he even made it difficult for me to work tomorrow night!"
At this moment, a burly man in armor rushed in from the back door of the repair shop, holding a big sword and punching the repair shop owner in the head. He shouted, "How dare you disrespect the son of Odin!"
"Wostagg, what are you doing here?" Thor hurried over and stopped the burly man from continuing to beat up the repair shop owner. He said, "Stop, don't hit him! He's just an ordinary person!"
"But he insulted you! Thor, how can we let him insult you?!"
"Okay, stop it!" Thor shouted, "This matter is complicated, but you guys explain to me first, how did you end up here?"
"Oh my god, there's Sif too!" Thor saw the figure coming from behind and said, "How long has it been since we've seen each other?"
Sif walked up to Thor and said, "You've been fighting outside all the time, it's been hundreds of years, hasn't it?"
"Forget about that for now, Wostagg? Fandral... and Hogan! What are you guys doing here?"
"We need a safe place to talk." Sif said calmly, "Are you at a camp here? Let's go there."
Thor scratched his head and said, "A camp...yes, there is one, but you might...okay, I'm living with Loki now. I know, you two have a grudge against each other."
"Loki?" Sif's tone suddenly became serious. "We were just about to talk to you about Loki."
Thor glanced at the clock on the wall and said, "Loki should still be at work. It shouldn't be a problem if we go back."
"Also, can you use your godly powers to change your clothes? We can't take public transportation with you dressed like that."
"Public transportation? What's that?"
"It's the public carriage in Asgard."
"What's the problem with us dressed like this?"
Thor was a little headache. He suddenly felt the same dumbness when he first arrived on Earth. He could only take out his mobile phone and call for help.
After a while, Steve and Hill came together. Steve saw several people standing next to Thor who looked exactly like him and pressed his temples, saying, "Please, why are there four people like this here??? "
As a SHIELD agent, Hill was used to seeing big scenes. She said, "Shouldn't I thank you for saying hello to the natives of Earth after receiving your companions who smuggled over?"
"I'm sorry, I don't know why they came here." Thor said a little embarrassedly, "In theory, we can't just come to Earth."
Hill drove these people to Thor's apartment and said, "Remember to report to SHIELD tomorrow, otherwise they will be deported as illegal immigrants."
After entering the apartment, Thor's friends started to discuss in a noisy manner. They said, "Your place is not bad, although it is not as big as Asgard, it is still quite novel."
"What is this? Sofa? It looks a bit different from Asgard's."
"The development of humans is too fast. What is this thing for? Is it a lamp? Why is the switch so strange?"
Thor stood in the middle of the room with his hands on his waist and said, "You have to explain to me what you are here for."
Sif put her sword back on her waist and said, "We are here to warn you and warn the people of Earth."
"Warning? What happened?"
"Recently, Heimdall found out that Loki had some abnormal behavior. He seems to be frequently traveling between the weapons warehouse in Asgard and the palace warehouse. According to Heimdall, Loki may have an idea about the Destroyer."
"Destroyer..." Thor frowned and thought for a moment. "Are you talking about the big robot that was placed in the palace before? What is it for?"
Hogun walked up and said, "That is a weapon. It was the chariot of the father of the gods. The father of the gods drove it to face many powerful enemies."
"But what does this have to do with Loki and Earth? I don't quite understand..."
"In fact, we have been suspicious of Loki." Sif's voice was a bit heavy. She said, "Thor, sometimes you are too naive. You are honest and kind, but not everyone is like that. We have been suspecting that Loki had a hand in the incidents in Jotunheim."
"I know you trust your brother very much, and we don't want to ruin your relationship, so we haven't told you directly. But during the time you were exiled, we have been keeping an eye on Loki."
"We've caught him red-handed!" said Fandral. "We have no right to enter the warehouse of Asgard, but Heimdall, as the keeper of Asgard, has the authority. He found out that Loki has been entering and leaving the warehouse frequently, which he has never done before."
"The Destroyer is the weapon of Odin, the father of the gods. But as you know, Odin has been sleeping for a while. We suspect that Loki wants to tamper with the Destroyer."
"Heimdall also has this suspicion, but he cannot question the prince of Asgard. So he let us into Asgard to keep an eye on Loki."
"We found out that Loki is preparing a space channel. He wants to transport the Destroyer to Earth!"
"He wants to kill you, Thor," said Sif, walking up to Thor with a serious expression. "He knows you don't have your godly powers right now. Once this powerful weapon is put on Earth, both you and the ordinary people of Earth will be in danger."
"That's impossible!" Thor immediately denied. "I've been getting along well with him lately, and why would he want to kill me? We're brothers."
Sif sighed and covered her forehead. "But you're both princes of Asgard. There's only one throne in Asgard. If he wants to become the king of Asgard, he can only kill you."
"He wants to become the king of Asgard?" Thor said in shock. "Why does he want to become the king of Asgard?"
The other people looked at Thor with a strange expression. Thor paused and said, "Oh, okay, well, yes, he may want to become the king of Asgard. Everyone wants it, but he won't...no, don't tell me that, Loki wouldn't do that..."
Sif patted Thor's shoulder and said, "We don't want to destroy the relationship between you and your brother. But the fact is, if the Destroyer arrives on Earth, not only will you be in danger, but also the ordinary people of Earth."
Thor hesitated, and Sif continued, "This is not just for your own safety, but also for the safety of Earth. The Destroyer is an extremely powerful magical weapon, and we have no confidence in defeating it. So you must find a way to regain your godly powers and weapons."
"I have no clue, where is my godly power?" Thor turned and walked to the sofa, leaning his body on it. "Mjolnir is within SHIELD's monitoring range, and I tried to retrieve it before, but I couldn't pick it up."
"Not just me, Loki and some SHIELD agents have also tried and failed. The seal that Odin put on it is incredibly powerful. No matter if it's strength or magic, it can't be opened."
"And all the clues he left me, I still haven't figured them out. I asked Loki, but he didn't tell me either."
"Of course, he won't tell you," Volstagg said angrily. "If you regain your godly powers and weapons, what use is he? He wants to kill you while you're weak."
"Anyway," Sif walked up to Thor and said, "we're all with you, but you must pull yourself together. You are the future master of Asgard, the recognized heir of Asgardians. You have a responsibility to protect all living beings in the Nine Realms, including Earth."
"Don't let us think that when the crisis comes, you will only run away, Thor."
