"I am simply following Father's final decree!"
Loki responded to Thor's questioning with an unperturbed and composed expression.
"You're a master of deception, always have been, never changed," Thor said with anger and sarcasm on his face, approaching Loki.
"It's good that you're back!"
"But now, allow me to destroy Jotunheim first!"
After saying these two sentences, Loki suddenly unleashed an energy shockwave with his scepter, sending Thor flying.
Clang!
Thor crashed through the glass, falling from the high point of the palace.
"Is this really Loki? What happened to Loki? What happened to my father?"
The Thor on the scene was utterly bewildered.
He found it hard to accept. Even if Loki had been truly mischievous and played many pranks on him before, he would never truly lay a hand on him.
He even… sent people to kill him!
What exactly happened in the future?
Why would Loki become like this in the future?
Thump, thump, thump!
The camera then switched to the Rainbow Bridge, where Loki, riding a fast horse, arrived inside a strangely shaped grand hall.
He picked up a sword and plunged it directly into a device.
That device was the same one Odin had used to banish Thor last time.
"Where is Heimdall? Where is he?"
Thor once again felt very strange. This was supposed to be Heimdall's post, so why was Heimdall nowhere to be seen?
The appearance of Laufey, the Frost Giant King, had already made Thor feel very odd, wondering why Heimdall would make such a mistake.
But now, it seemed very likely that Heimdall had met with misfortune!
As Loki manipulated it, the "large sphere" at the Rainbow Bridge's "control center" began to spin rapidly.
Then, a powerful beam of light shot directly onto a planet.
Undoubtedly, that planet was Jotunheim.
Crack, crack, crack!
At this moment, ice began to form on the device, and the icicles rapidly spread outwards, gradually covering the entire hall.
"What is this? Loki can use ice magic?"
"Even among the Frost Giants, very few can reach Loki's level!"
Thor was stunned again. The information revealed by this question continuously caught Thor off guard.
Whoosh!
A figure flew quickly along the Rainbow Bridge, none other than Thor, the God of Thunder. Thor was both shocked and enraged when he saw the "ice tree."
"You can no longer stop it!" Loki said with a gloomy face. "The Rainbow Bridge will continue to grow until it destroys Jotunheim!"
Thor tried to rush up and stop Loki, but Loki knocked him down to the ground with another "shot."
"Why are you doing this?!" Thor got to his feet and yelled at Loki.
"To prove to Father that I am the more capable son!" Loki said in a deep voice to Thor. "When he wakes up, I will save his life! I will kill those monsters! That way, I will be the heir to the throne!"
"So everything you're doing is for the throne?" The Thor on the scene muttered, "You just had to say so!"
"You can't kill them all!" The Thor on the screen, however, shouted loudly at Loki.
"Why? Have you taken a liking to Frost Giants recently?" Loki said with an extremely sarcastic laugh. "You can't kill so many with your bare hands."
"I've changed."
"I've changed too!"
Loki said, swinging his scepter and fiercely knocking Thor to the ground. "Come, let's settle this!"
"I don't want the throne; I just want to be your equal!" Loki said, starting to walk towards Thor.
The Thor in front of the screen was momentarily stunned. Was this truly Loki's innermost thought?
Nick Fury, Black Widow, and others felt somewhat surprised.
They had been convinced that Loki was an ambitious, typical villain, but now?
Behind everything he did, it was merely because… he felt unloved?
Because he envied and was jealous that Thor was more favored?
This truly exceeded everyone's expectations.
"I won't fight you, brother!" Thor shouted loudly at Loki.
"I am not your brother, never have been!" Loki retorted emotionally, yelling at Thor.
"You're crazy, Loki!"
"Am I crazy? Ah! When did you become so wishy-washy? Don't tell me it's because of that woman!" Loki yelled repeatedly at Thor.
And when that "woman" was mentioned, Thor's expression changed slightly.
"It's true!" Loki keenly caught Thor's change in expression and began to provoke him with words. "Well, it seems after our business is done, I'll have to pay her a personal visit!"
Thor could no longer hold back and roared as he charged at Loki. Loki also charged at Thor.
The two brothers began to fight fiercely.
However, it was clear that Loki's strength was far inferior to Thor's; he was no match for Thor at all.
During the intense battle, Loki almost fell from the Rainbow Bridge, clinging to it with both hands, pleading with Thor: "Save me, brother, save me!"
"He's playing a trick. As expected of the God of Mischief and Lies," Nick Fury saw through Loki's scheme at a glance.
"What kind of trick is this? Even a fool wouldn't fall for it, would they?" Tony Stark said with disdain.
No sooner had Tony Stark finished speaking than Thor leaned down, genuinely intending to pull Loki up.
But the next moment, Loki vanished; it was just a projection.
"Hahahaha!"
A voice of successful treachery came from behind, and Loki knocked Thor down with a single blow.
"He fell for that too?" Tony Stark couldn't help but rub his forehead.
"Hahahaha!"
"Hahahaha!"
Loki conjured a group of Lokis, and they surrounded Thor with sinister smiles.
But in the face of absolute power, all schemes and tricks were futile. With just one hammer swing, Thor sent the entire group of Lokis scattering and flying backward.
The "clones" created by Loki's magic dissipated, and Loki's true body slammed heavily onto the ground.
Thor then placed his hammer on Loki's chest, pinning Loki to the ground.
Loki exerted all his strength but couldn't even get up.
Thor took this opportunity to check the situation at the "control center," but he found that he was utterly powerless.
"Look at you, mighty Thor! You possess such great power, yet what can you do now?"
"Did you hear that, brother? You can't do anything now!"
Hearing Loki's arrogant laughter behind him, Thor displayed a resolute expression, as if he had made some kind of decision.
He reached out and summoned his hammer into his hand.
