Chapter 66: Steve Stabbed in the Back
"Captain America lifted Thor's hammer?"
In the dark corner, Bant, who had turned into a ghost, emerged from the ground with his head.
Bant also saw this scene and while he was surprised, he didn't feel that surprised.
In fact, he had always been qualified.
As for Thor's hammer, you can either lift it or you can't lift it. There is no such thing as only being able to lift it a little bit.
In Avengers 2, Steve pretended that he couldn't lift Thor's hammer because he and Thor had become good friends and he didn't want to embarrass him.
But there is no friendship between Steve and Thor now.
"I just wonder what expression Odin would have if he saw this."
In fact, Odin didn't have any special ideas.
Because he had entered Odin's sleep early under Loki's coercion.
Of course, even so, he could still see everything in the underworld.
If it were in the past, he would have been furious when he saw a mortal getting his hands on the treasures of the Gods, but now, he found that he was not that angry.
He was the one who cast the spell in the first place, and there was no way he would go back on his promise.
What's more, this might be a good thing for Thor.
Of course, it is impossible to allow mortals to take away Thor's hammer. He will think of a compromise, but not now.
At this moment, there is another person who is also paying attention to all this.
Loki Odinson.
The culprit who caused Thor to be banished to the mortal world and Odin to fall into deep sleep.
From the beginning, he was always paying attention to his brother's every move. It must be said that seeing Thor suffer, he felt very happy in his heart.
But that doesn't mean he can tolerate a mortal lifting Thor's hammer!
Loki used to have no idea about Thor's hammer, but after Odin cast a spell on it, it was different. Odin's spell was almost like saying:
Whoever can lift the hammer is qualified to become the king of Asgard.
He needs this qualification.
Or rather, he wanted to prove that he was qualified.
So, the moment he saw Steve raise Thor's hammer, he wanted to kill this mortal.
He wore a horned helmet, and the majestic pointed horns looked as majestic as a crown.
Loki had a gloomy face, sitting on the throne that originally belonged to Odin, half leaning against it.
"I am the King of Asgard!"
He struck Odin's spear heavily on the empty hall, and the murderous sound of the Eternal Spear echoed in the luxurious but dim hall.
New Mexico.
When Thor saw Steve raise the hammer, he was completely stunned.
"How can this be……"
He was devastated.
But Coulson looked happy.
"Captain! I knew you could do it!"
As a super fan of Captain America, Coulson understands that if Thor's hammer is really as powerful as Thor says, then who else in the world besides Steve is qualified to lift it?
Sure enough, this Thor's hammer, which could not be shaken by any instrument, was actually lifted up by Captain America!
"Captain, how do you feel?"
he asked quickly.
At the same time, the situation here was also conveyed to Nick Fury.
Steve didn't say anything, he just opened his other hand, and instantly, blue arcs of electricity flowed through his fingertips.
"I feel like I can control all the lightning..."
Steve said, frowning.
This kind of powerful force was something he had never experienced before. He felt as if he had gone back seventy years, to the moment when he had just come out of the laboratory.
The abundant divine power flowed through his body, making him feel omnipotent!
If he had such power in New York at that time, those monsters would probably not be his match at all, right?
Steve thought.
But he also turned his head and looked at Thor.
At this moment, the Asgardian prince leaned against the wall as if he had lost his soul, and then slid to the ground, his long golden hair falling down, each strand telling of his embarrassment. "How could this happen..."
"…Mjolnir?"
He called out to Thor's hammer, but the hammer did not respond to him.
It's completely over now.
he thinks.
He finally had nothing left, even Mjolnir had left him.
Whoever can lift Thor's hammer will gain the power of Thor!
Thor knew that it was impossible for him to get Mjolnir back because he was already a mortal and could not be a match for Steve who had obtained the power of Thundergod!
But under his surprised gaze, Steve put the hammer back to its original place.
"It seems that what you said is true."
Captain America looked at Thor with complicated eyes.
The moment he really lifted Thor's hammer, it was enough to prove that everything Thor said was true. But for Steve, it was hard for him to believe that he was really qualified.
Seventy years later, when he woke up again and began to slowly understand this world, his heart had actually begun to waver.
He discovered that he was not as great as those propaganda stories said, and the same was true for the country.
Are you really qualified?
He couldn't help but think.
But Coulson saw him let go of the hammer and got anxious.
He was obviously worried that Steve Rogers would be so noble as to return Mjolnir to Thor, and he could imagine how pissed Nick Fury would be if that happened.
No matter how much he idolizes Captain America, Coulson never forgets that he is an agent of .
He stood in front of Steve and whispered, "Captain, we can't prove that what he said is true, at least we can't prove that he is the owner of this hammer. Even if it is, we need to consider whether it will be harmful to the earth if he takes back his power."
Actually, what Coulson said makes sense.
Thor has looked down on the earthlings from the beginning. It is not difficult to know from his mouth that the so-called Asgard regards the earth as their territory. Steve is not sure whether Thor will start a war against the earth after regaining his power.
But he couldn't take other people's things as his own.
In fact, he has been quite critical of what the United States has done in recent years since he learned about it.
It's just that it's hard to find someone to talk to about this kind of thing, so he can only bury his confusion in his heart.
He sighed and lowered his head.
At this moment, something strange happened suddenly!
Without Steve noticing, the space behind him began to distort.
Then, a tall and thin figure walked out. At this moment, Loki was wearing a suit and windbreaker, dressed like an ordinary person. He stabbed a silver dagger into Captain America's back waist.
"what!"
Steve was attacked suddenly and let out a scream, but he quickly fought back. He gritted his teeth and smashed the shield behind him with his backhand.
But his shield hit nothing.
Loki twisted like a phantom, then he pulled out the bloody dagger, disappeared from the spot, and then reappeared at the highest position, looking down at everyone.
"Loki!"
When Thor saw him, he shed tears of excitement. He thought his brother had come to the courtyard specifically to save him.
"I knew it,"
"I knew you wouldn't abandon me!"
God knows how happy Thor was when he saw Loki. The series of blows he had suffered during this period had made him discouraged. Fortunately, everything was turning around now.
Still, he was a little upset about Loki's sneak attack on Steve.
This is not what a warrior with honor should do.
"Loki, I know you want to save me, but you shouldn't hurt this Midgard!" Thor waved his hands and shouted at him, "The Midgard's body is too weak!"
Loki glanced at him with disdain and said nothing.
Bant, hiding in the darkness, also knew that his chance to obtain the genes of both the Frost Giants and the Asgardians had come.
