In a secret base hundreds of kilometers away from New York.
Loki sat on the stone slab, holding the scepter, listening to the report from his new subordinates.
"If you want to achieve your wish, you need a huge amount of energy, and at the same time, you also need some special substance that can withstand this energy."
Selvig, who was influenced by the Mind Gem, listened carefully to what Loki said about the correct way to use the Cosmic Cube, and said after a little thought.
He had been studying it for a long time and had figured out some of the characteristics of the Cosmic Cube. After receiving the Asgard knowledge that Loki brought him, he immediately found the correct answer.
"And the two things you want can be found in New York." Hawkeye, who was standing by, heard this information and immediately used his knowledge to reveal some secrets of S.H.I.E.L.D.
"Given that SHIELD is looking for you all over the world, we need a best of both worlds solution that can complete the plan quietly."
Hawkeye is worthy of being the top agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. He quickly worked out a general feasible idea for Loki.
"It seems that not all my people on Earth are stupid."
Loki felt very useful to have such a worry-free subordinate.
He gripped the scepter tightly, listened carefully to Hawkeye's plan, and showed a satisfied expression.
"However, I need to make some small changes to your plan."
Loki smiled, with a curve at the corner of his mouth.
"Whether from your memories or my experience, these superheroes on Earth seem to be a bit difficult to deal with. Now I heard that they want to form the Avengers to stop me. This is quite unfriendly. I must make it more difficult for them."
Loki recalled that the last time he came to Earth, he was stopped by a mysterious wizard, causing him to fail.
If all the superheroes on Earth are as difficult as that guy, he must be fully prepared.
"What do you think?" Loki whispered his new plan into Hawkeye's ear.
"I think your plan is feasible." Hawkeye gave his judgment after listening to Loki's ideas.
"Very good, then we will start the action tonight."
…
"Chief! Found it!"
On the S.H.I.E.L.D. helicarrier, hundreds of agents were staring at the surveillance footage nervously, looking for Loki's every move.
At this moment, a voice suddenly shouted excitedly, attracting everyone's attention.
"Project it onto the big screen." Nick Fury, who was pacing among the agents, suddenly perked up.
"The footage shows that the target appeared at a bank charity dinner on 57th Avenue in Manhattan, but strangely, he was alone!"
"What is he doing there?" Nick Fury asked.
"According to the data, the people present were all high-ranking New Yorkers, including congressmen, wealthy businessmen, and many government officials. Could he be thinking..."
"Just to show off our power in front of these Earth elites?" Nick Fury narrowed his one eye.
Panic is what he hates most, and it is obvious that the other party is provoking panic among the citizens. Once the elite class succumbs to him, ordinary people in New York will be terrified.
"Notify Stark and Rogers, we must act immediately!" Nick Fury stared at Loki in the picture. The other party seemed to have appeared and forced the crowd to a fountain square, where he forced the crowd to kneel down, showing his power.
"Let this bastard know how powerful the Earthlings are!"
"Yes, Chief!"
…
The Plaza, 57th Avenue, Manhattan.
A group of middle-aged men in suits and elegantly dressed ladies gathered in the center of the square. At this moment, they had completely lost their usual calmness and composure, and were all intimidated by the powerful and mysterious figure in front of them.
He was actually able to transform into several people, surround the entire crowd from all sides, and use his terrifying abilities to make everyone present obey him.
“Kneel down!”
The black-haired man holding the scepter shouted loudly and began to walk among the crowd.
"My biggest complaint about you Earthlings is that you will never learn to respect your king."
As Loki walked, he materialized his golden armor, which was a symbol of Asgard's status and glory, as well as a symbol of him being one of the guardians of the Earth and the heir to its ruler.
At this moment, he needed the people in front of him to kneel down to him.
That was his long-standing desire for power.
However, these earthlings were so stupid that none of them obeyed orders.
This made Loki very angry. He immediately shook the scepter in his hand, making everyone feel the powerful force and had to bend their knees and kneel on the ground.
"Foolish people will never learn to judge the situation. Fortunately, even the stupidest people will succumb to power."
Seeing this, Loki was intoxicated with an expression that was beyond words. It was undoubtedly a wonderful moment to conquer his brother Thor's sanctuary and enjoy the kneeling and submission of his former subjects.
However, the next moment, what he saw made him extremely angry.
In the crowd, someone actually disobeyed his order and stood up stubbornly.
"How dare you!" Loki immediately held the scepter and launched an angry attack. He wanted to kill the earthling immediately to make an example of him and let the other fools realize what the consequences would be if they resisted him.
However, at the moment he released the ray of destruction, a figure suddenly dropped from the sky, stood in front of the rebel, and bounced the ray of destruction away.
"Captain Rogers..." Loki figured out the identity of the person with just one glance.
"I thought there were enough stupid people on Earth, but I didn't expect there were even more stupid people. You actually want to stop your king!" Loki shouted.
He was very unhappy with this disrespectful behavior.
"Maybe before coming to Earth, you should learn more about freedom." Captain America slowly stood up.
"If you don't have time, then I can teach you now!" Captain America didn't waste any time and rushed forward immediately.
The opponent looks a little thin and should not be his match in close combat.
However, Captain America miscalculated.
Although Loki is known as the number one wizard in the Nine Realms, he is also a powerful warrior of Asgard. Moreover, he has the scepter, so he is not afraid of Captain America's close combat at all.
In just three or two moves, Loki dodged Captain America's hook punch, and at the same time, he flexibly turned his body, and when Captain America turned sideways, he exerted his strength and secretly pushed him to the ground.
"I really don't like your self-confidence." Loki sneered and slowly walked forward with the scepter, trying to turn this top-ranked superhero into his own confidant.
But at this moment, a figure came suddenly.
