Lin En naturally recognized who these three people were at a glance.
The black-haired, black-eyed Latin beauty is Jane Foster, the astrophysicist and Thor's future girlfriend.
The super plump girl across from her, who looked like Max from 2 Broke Girls, was her graduate assistant, Daisy.
As for the strong blond man with a silly smile on his face, he is naturally the god of thunder himself, the son of Odin, Loki's brother, Thor.
At this time, he should have tried to retrieve Thor's hammer, but found helplessly that he had lost the qualifications and was instead captured by S.H.I.E.L.D., which was guarding the hammer.
During this process, he was deceived by Loki and believed that his father Odin was dead and he was exiled indefinitely.
As for why he could still sit here and drink, it was probably because Segwell, who had just returned from New York, acted as his guarantor and released him from SHIELD.
"My father once told me not to be a slave to my emotions. I have recognized my mistakes. This is something to be happy about. In Asgard, happy emotions should be expressed in the most enthusiastic way."
Thor narrowed his eyes and smiled, his thick eyebrows squeezed together, appearing very open-minded. However, his forced smile was obviously a bit lonely, and he didn't know that he had been deceived by his cunning brother.
However, opposite him, the two ladies looked at each other in confusion - what was this fool talking about
"For Asgard! For Earth!"
Thor has always been a person who doesn't care about other people's opinions. As he was talking, he seemed to be moved by himself. He suddenly raised his beer glass into the air and showed Asgard-like enthusiasm.
This made other people in the tavern turn around to see who was being so unrestrained.
As for the two ladies, they had already buried their heads under the table.
"Hey, stranger, let's have a drink together!"
Thor seemed to realize that his behavior was out of place here. After laughing awkwardly twice, he found someone who had just entered at the door.
"No, thanks. I'm still a few days away from reaching drinking age." Lynn didn't expect this kind of opening remark. After a moment's pause, she politely declined.
This guy Thor is a beer kegger, he drinks beer like a malt beverage, and Lynn is afraid that he can't resist his enthusiasm.
He always remembered that the purpose of this trip was to travel and to secretly take care of the Cosmic Cube and not to be too ostentatious or conspicuous.
"Hey, hey, kid, in our Asgard, a newborn baby can drink a barrel of wine that can be ignited."
Thor pulled his neck back, made a snorting sound through his nose, and began to laugh at Lin En.
"Oh my god, Thor, you can't do this!" Daisy on the side hurriedly stopped him. In the United States, instigating minors to do this is not a trivial matter.
On the other side, Jane also began to apologize to Lynn.
"Sorry, our friend is having some... amnesia." She was embarrassed.
"It's okay. It's rare to meet someone who is interested in the legend of Asgard." Lin En shrugged. He didn't mind chatting with Thor for a few minutes to get some simple information.
But Thor's eyes lit up.
"Hey, kid, do you believe in the existence of Asgard?"
"The great Odin, the invincible Thor, the wise Loki, the heroic Valkyrie, the magnificent Asgard, they exist clearly in..." Lin En paused and found a chair nearby.
And Thor's eyes expected him to continue.
“It’s in my childhood stories.”
Lynn revealed the answer.
"Give me an order of toasted tortilla chips with guacamole and a serving of fresh-squeezed corn juice, no sugar." He turned and shouted to the counter.
When I turned around, I found that Thor had already grasped the fork tightly.
"You are a guy who only dares to drink corn juice. If my Meowth were still here, I would make sure you experience the wrath of Asgard!" He looked at Lin En, and as if in protest, he drank a glass of beer in one gulp, and then threw the glass to the ground with a bang.
"Hey, Thor, you just promised!" Jane and Max on the side widened their eyes.
"Oh, sorry." Thor said this, but he raised his eyebrows at Lin En, indicating that the latter should have a real man battle with him.
Of course, it’s about drinking beer.
However, Lynn simply picked up the large glass of corn juice in his hand and toasted Thor, indicating that he did not accept his provocation.
For the straightforward Thor, this was like being suffocated to death by a pillow.
"Oh, Jane, it's hard to imagine that there are so many fools among my people. Their lack of wisdom cannot see the existence of Asgard, and they are even sharp-tongued and ridiculed." Thor turned his head and began to talk to Jane, but he was actually talking to Lynn, the tactless stranger.
"Only your research has broken through imagination and ignorance, approached the truth of the universe, and uncovered the legends of the Nine Realms."
Jane was listening carefully. In fact, she always felt that this mysterious man was not lying and his brain was not broken.
He would support the theories she had developed and encourage her to continue her research, and she would gradually try to accept his arguments.
A look of interest began to show on her face.
When Thor saw this, he smiled more and more and began to boast:
"Jane, you know, as I said before, the Earth is the atrium of the Nine Realms, located in the center of the World Tree, connecting to other countries, and Asgard can go to the Nine Realms through the Rainbow Bridge. The one guarding the Rainbow Bridge is my old friend, Heimdall. He has a pair of eyes that can see through the Nine Realms and a pair of ears that can hear all sounds. Maybe he is watching our conversation now. If not, it doesn't matter. I can summon his attention by just calling him, like this..."
As Thor spoke, he became increasingly excited, and he raised his voice and shouted toward the ceiling.
"Hey, Heimdall!"
Everyone in the tavern was shocked by this guy again. They all turned around and looked at him, with an expression as if they were looking at him as if he were a fool.
Jane, who had been listening to Thor's speech attentively, was shocked.
"Ha, haha, he just came out of the hospital, haha..." Daisy quickly put on a smile.
“It’s really inexplicable!”
"He should pay for my spilled whiskey!"
"Big fool..."
Everyone shook their heads, thinking they had met a fool.
But at this moment—
A sharp sound of breaking wind suddenly came from outside. The sound was like a waterfall falling from a cliff, washing the air and echoing for more than ten miles around.
"Damn it!"
Everyone in the tavern looked outside and found that a rainbow had fallen from the sky and landed not far outside the town.
It was an extremely brilliant beam of light, as if something was being transmitted down from the sky.
The townspeople, who had never seen such a sight before, began to panic.
Only Thor became excited. He laughed loudly and punched the air.
"Hey, I told him he could hear me!"
"See? This is Asgard's Rainbow Bridge! Heimdall heard my call!"
"Oh, this is unbelievable..." Jane and Daisy opened their eyes wide beside him. They suddenly realized that the irrelevant words said by the man in front of them might be true.
As for Lin En, he quietly left the chaos because he knew that there would be big trouble later.
Soon, the rainbow flew away, and Thor ran down the street laughing.
"Oh, let me see who's here!"
He opened his arms and faced the rainbow, as if waiting for a hug.
Sure enough, a few seconds later, four guys dressed as ancient Viking warriors came towards us.
They are Thor's friends and comrades.
"Hey, Sif, Fandral, Volstagg, and you, Hogan!" Thor was very happy to see old friends.
“I’m so glad you guys came to see me!”
The few people opposite him also rushed over, unable to wait to see their friends.
"Thor!"
"Hey, it's hard to imagine that Heimdall can actually let you down!" Thor hugged them one by one and said with emotion.
"We are here to take you back, Thor. Asgard cannot live without you." The female warrior Sif said with great concern.
"Oh no, I made a mistake. It's all my fault. I killed my father. I am too ashamed to go back to Asgard..." When Thor heard this, a sad expression began to appear on his face.
"What? What are you talking about? His Majesty Odin is not dead!"
The female warrior Sif was shocked and didn't know why Thor said that.
"But Loki told me that my father is dead and my mother agreed to exile me..." As Thor was talking, he suddenly realized something was wrong. "Damn it! Loki, my cunning brother!"
"What on earth does he want to do?!"
Thor realized that he had been deceived again. He was extremely angry and wanted to summon his hammer and return to Asgard to fight Loki.
However, now that he had lost the use of the hammer, he could only rage helplessly.
"Heimdall!" Thor immediately called out to his friend who was guarding the Rainbow Bridge, wanting him to teleport him back to Asgard.
But no matter how he called, the rainbow bridge did not appear.
On the contrary—
A purple beam of light suddenly fell from the sky and landed not far away.
"What is that?" Everyone in Asgard felt something was wrong. They smelled danger in that beam of light.
Thor narrowed his eyes and stared at the place where the light beam fell.
Soon, the smoke and dust dissipated, revealing a huge silver-white metal warrior.
He was as tall as six or seven stories, and his entire body was covered in bright silver alloy, making him look extremely intimidating.
"Destroyer!"
Everyone in Asgard gasped. This was Asgard's ultimate weapon, which often appeared in massacres against other worlds. Now it appeared on Earth right in their footsteps.
"This must be Loki's doing. He wants to wipe out the roots!"
Everyone reacted.
"Thor, we fight side by side!" Several warriors were not very sure, but they firmly believed in the ancient legend of Asgard that those who died gloriously in battle would ascend to Valhalla and gain eternal glory and peace.
"No, no, I'm just a mortal now. I'll only hold you back. Go stop him first, and I'll evacuate the crowd!"
Thor knew the power of the Destroyer. If he allowed him to kill people, the entire town would be reduced to ashes.
He regarded this place as his own territory under his protection, and even if he was demoted to a mortal, he would still protect his people.
As he spoke, the Destroyer had already locked onto everyone's position. He suddenly opened the metal visor on his head, revealing the interior space behind it that was as empty as a furnace.
A beam of destructive light immediately burst out from it.
"Get out of the way!" Thor pounced on Jane Foster and escorted her to safety.
"Sif, I'll leave this to you guys first. I'll go evacuate the crowd!"
Thor quickly formulated a plan, and as he spoke he ran back to the tavern, intent on kicking out the people inside.
But what surprised him was that the black-haired young man was no longer there.
In fact, Lin En was not far away, standing on the roof and watching all this under the blessing of the Disillusionment Spell.
If Lynn's memory is correct, the Asgard warriors will soon be defeated and the Destroyer will kill everyone. In order to redeem all this, Thor will take the initiative to die in order to stop the anger of his brother Loki.
Afterwards, a bloody scene will appear. When Thor is about to die, he regains the qualification to pick up the hammer, and then gains the power of Thor to beat the Destroyer to pieces.
However, this conflicts with the scene given in the crystal ball. If everything goes well, Loki will not appear here at all. There must be some changes in the script.
So, Lynn began to watch the fire from the other side of the river, looking for the butterfly flapping its wings.
To his surprise, just the next moment, he saw the culprit.
Just as people in the town were fleeing, several black Chevrolets raised a trail of dust outside the town. They came speeding over, as if they were going to join this battle with unequal strength.
"All teams get ready, the induction team launches an attack!" A familiar-looking bald man got out of the car, holding a loudspeaker and began to deploy for battle.
It turned out to be S.H.I.E.L.D. led by Nick Fury. They were originally guarding Thor's hammer, but were now attracted by the fluctuations of space transmission.
Lynn had a bad feeling.
Sure enough, after several agents pointed their thermal weapons at the Destroyer and temporarily attracted its attention, he saw Nick Fury launch the second part of his plan.
"The experimental device begins charging!"
Immediately afterwards, a group of people opened the trunk of a car, revealing an instrument that looked like a laser exciter.
And in the very center of it, there was a blue Rubik's Cube!
Nick Fury really brought the Cosmic Cube to New Mexico!
Lin En became nervous. He had the Cosmic Cube and the desert. The only thing missing was Loki. Then the scene in the crystal ball would appear!
He quickly moved to a closer place and stared at the instrument carefully.
Then, he saw a shocking scene.
Nick Fury ordered someone to start the machine, and suddenly, a blue beam of light containing huge energy burst out, like a shock wave that could destroy a star, and went straight towards the Destroyer.
This reminded Lin En of the prototype of the Cosmic Cube that Hydra placed when Captain America fought the Red Skull.
The blue beam was so powerful that it hit the Destroyer almost instantly.
After all, there was an endless amount of space turbulence in there, bombarding the Destroyer, eroding every inch of his body, and burning all the metal in his body red hot.
The Destroyer struggled hard, but could not move an inch. It seemed that it was about to be shattered by the beam of light.
At this time, he changed his purpose, turned his neck, and searched for the figure of Thor in the crowd.
The last of the red flame gathered inside his empty head, which was like a furnace, and sprayed towards the God of Thunder.
However, it ultimately failed, as the decomposition beam produced by the Cosmic Cube completely destroyed his head.
“Bang!”
It turned into a pile of scrap metal and collapsed to the ground.
"it's over!"
The people on the ground clapped and celebrated.
However, only Lynn felt as if he was facing a formidable enemy.
Because he discovered that just now, the script had really changed—Thor did not regain his power because of Kang Kai's death, and Nick Fury exposed the Cosmic Cube to Loki.
I'm afraid that a more powerful enemy will arrive in the next second.
“Boom!”
At this time, another loud noise was heard from the sky.
