Chapter 2029 - 2029 Deaths of Mother and Son, Huge Changes in Asgard
2029 Deaths of Mother and Son, Huge Changes in Asgard
If it were anyone else, Luke wouldn’t take these neurotic words seriously.
But if it came from Dr. Selvig, it might be true.
It was like how the three Avenger titans who liked to talk big could often create miracles in the end and turn their big talk into reality.
Throwing the silver rod into Space 2 for the team inside to dismantle and study, he said that he was going to enjoy breakfast in the sun, and went upstairs.
It just so happened that above Dr. Selvig’s apartment was the flat rooftop.
In any case, he could hear whatever the three people in the apartment below said.
Conversely, if he sat with them, it would be hard to receive and send information, surveillance, and communication.
After changing his clothes, Dr. Selvig finally became much more serious and talked about his research in an organized manner.
Putting aside his excitement and unwillingness to wear pants, he was basically normal.
11 November, Singles’ Day, was another peaceful day in London.
Darcy, on the other hand, used the excuse of paying Luke back the bail money to go up to the roof for a third afternoon tea with him, so the clone didn’t spend Singles’ Day alone.
In the apartment downstairs, an old man and a young bachelor spent the day together.
Since Big Dipper was in charge of this mission, Selina didn’t have to stay in London anymore. She went straight to Austria to continue traveling with her family.
When necessary, she would operate an android to provide support, like the other team members.
On 12 November, the team in Space 2 finished analyzing Selvig’s gadget.
Darcy joined Luke for a fourth afternoon tea.
She didn’t study quantum mechanics, but political science. She knew nothing about Dr. Selvig’s research, so… it was better to enjoy afternoon tea.
Luke didn’t have to take the effort to chat with her.
With just a little Pheromone Control + Real Dream, he could say a few words, and Darcy would be kept amused for a while in her mind – she was completely self-sufficient.
In any case, it was much better for her to be distracted for an afternoon than to be idle and restless in her room.
On 13 November, it was peaceful during the day. At seven in the evening, Luke received a notification from the drone at the factory that Thor and Dr. Jane had appeared.
Seeing this, Luke rubbed his chin. “Can the factory still lead to Asgard?”
But Thor’s face was actually injured, which was a little unusual.
There were people in Asgard who could treat the crown prince’s injuries, right? Muttering to himself, Luke drove back to Dr. Selvig’s place.
Not long after, Thor and Dr. Jane returned in the red Volvo which Darcy had abandoned at the factory.
Clearly, they had found the car keys which the intern, Ian, had dropped in the teleportation portal.
Why was the car still there? Because Ian had finally decided to smash the car window that night to take out his bag.
For the two unpaid ‘teacher and intern,’ there was no hurry to return the car, since they would have to pay for the glass repairs.
They hadn’t needed a car for the past two days, so they hadn’t thought of bringing it back.
Dr. Jane didn’t notice Luke, who was standing on the side of the road, and hurried upstairs.
Thor, however, noticed him.
As one of the Bat Squad’s strongest combatants, Big Dipper left a deep impression on Thor.
He stopped and asked Big Dipper in surprise, “You’re here as well?”
Luke stood up from where he was leaning against the car. “You ran away so fast the other day. I could only watch Dr. Selvig and Darcy. Otherwise? Should I have waited for you to call me?”
Thor: “…Sorry, I don’t have a phone.”
Luke said, “I know. In any case, you don’t even remember Dr. Jane’s number.”
Thor: …That is true.
…
Both Darcy and Dr. Selvig were pleasantly surprised by Dr. Jane and Thor’s arrival.
When Dr. Selvig cautiously asked about Thor’s brother, Thor said gloomily, “He’s dead.”
Dr. Selvig said, “Thank God…”
As soon as he said that, he felt Thor give him a heavy look. “Well, I mean, that’s unfortunate.”
But when he hugged Thor to comfort him, there was a relieved smile on his face.
Clearly, Dr. Selvig had been traumatized from being under Loki’s mind control.
After an awkward exchange of greetings, everybody finally got down to business.
Luke, on the other hand, was very skeptical about Loki’s death, and vaguely felt that it was fishy.
Loki, this big villain, had tormented Thor to the point of death in Shackelford and New York. Now, Thor said that Loki had died to save him.
Was there some rule that bad guys who turned over a new leaf had to die?
Whether other people believed it or not, Luke didn’t.
He was very interested in this matter, but it was a pity that a dead person wasn’t as important as other news, so he could only talk about it later.
The important news which Thor and Dr. Jane brought back was that a race called the ‘Dark Elves’ had reappeared.
5,000 years ago, the leader of this race, Malekith, tried to use the Aether to destroy the Nine Realms and return the universe to darkness.
At that time, Thor’s grandfather, Bor, defeated this unlucky b*stard, and Bor buried the Aether in Svartalfheim.
In the end, Malekith could only hide in an unknown dimension with a small number of defeated soldiers.
A few days ago, Dr. Jane entered Svartalfheim through the portal in the factory in response to a summons by the Aether.
The Aether attached itself to her and was brought out.
Thor took Dr. Jane back to Asgard, but couldn’t remove the Aether from her body.
That was because the Aether was also known as the Reality Stone, and was one of the six Infinity Stones.
Dr. Jane only had the ordinary body of an Earthling, which couldn’t endure the operation to remove the Aether.
However, if the Aether remained in her body, her body would collapse and she would die.
After Malekith sensed that the Aether was in Asgard, he sent out Kursed warriors to hide among captives taken from the battlefield of Vanaheim.
After the Kursed warriors were escorted into Asgard, they attacked from both inside and outside, and broke into Asgard.
In this raid, the deaths of Asgardian soldiers and generals were secondary.
The biggest loss was Thor’s mother, God Queen Frigga, who was killed by a Kursed warrior while protecting Dr. Jane.
Luke couldn’t help but curse inwardly. Even Frigga was dead.
Thor had said that Loki had learned magic from Frigga since he was young, so Loki was very good at illusions.
Also, Frigga’s swordsmanship was top-notch; it was how Loki had been able to deftly stab his big brother in the waist.
If Frigga could die, so could Loki.
But Luke soon grew dubious.
Gods liked to play tricks the most.
Who knew, maybe both Frigga and Loki’s deaths were a cover, while another big move was about to be made behind the scenes!
