Chapter 102 Thor Descends! The boss is taking a nap, do you want to die?
Under Heimdall's precise control, the beam of light from the Bifrost did not smash through the surface of Midgard with the force of thunder as usual.
This time, the light silently shone over the New Mexico desert, gently placing a figure on the scorching sand.
Thor looked down at himself.
A white T-shirt with "I ♥ NY" printed on it, and a pair of mismatched jeans.
This is the "Midgard Garb" that his father Odin personally chose for him.
He felt every pore on his body was resisting.
When did he, the mighty Asgardian Thor, ever dress so... ridiculously?
Now look at what you have in your hand.
Mjolnir, the hammer that once terrified giants, has now been transformed by Odin's runic magic into an ordinary black long-handled umbrella.
"Father is being far too cautious."
Thor weighed the "umbrella" in his hand and couldn't help but complain under his breath.
"What could Midgard possibly hold that warrants such a show of force from me?"
Even so, his father's extremely solemn expression ultimately made him dare not be careless.
Instead of transforming into lightning and flying eastward, he first located S.H.I.E.L.D.'s secret base.
He needed intelligence, as well as a suitable means of transportation.
When Thor's highly recognizable face appeared on the surveillance footage, alarms went off in the minds of the agents throughout the base.
"Sol?!"
One-Eyed Chief Nick Fury stared at the screen, feeling his blood pressure soaring.
The last time this guy came, he almost razed a small town to the ground.
What are they planning to do this time?
"Fury, my old friend!" Thor waved enthusiastically in the direction of the camera. "I need help. I need to go to China to find someone."
"China?" Fury narrowed his one eye. "I'm warning you, Thor, it's not exactly a tourist destination anymore. According to our latest intelligence..."
"I know, there's a tough guy there," Thor interrupted him impatiently, waving his umbrella. "Don't worry, I'm not going there to fight."
"I'm going there for a friendly visit."
Fury stared intently at him with his single eye.
A friendly visit?
Coming from your mouth, Thor, makes it less believable than Loki claiming to be the god of honesty.
But he eventually agreed.
Letting Thor fly there himself would only create more chaos. It would be better to use S.H.I.E.L.D.'s most advanced Quinjet to send him there; at least the entire journey would be under control.
Several hours later.
A fighter jet with optical stealth activated landed like a ghost on the outskirts of Beijing.
Li Zhenguo, who had been waiting there, felt his temples throbbing as he watched the blond, muscular man step off the plane.
On the tablet in front of him were files urgently transmitted by S.H.I.E.L.D.
Name: Saul Odinson
Race: Asgardian Gods
Threat Level: Nation-Destroying
Li Zhenguo felt numb.
Ninjas, mages, super soldiers... now, even the gods from Norse mythology have arrived.
What kind of den of dragons and tigers is Mr. Lin's courtyard house?
"You're in charge here?" Thor's tone carried the condescending air inherent in the gods.
"Li Zhenguo, Special Operations Team of China." Li Zhenguo said neither humbly nor arrogantly, "Your Excellency Sol, according to the agreement, all your actions within China must be carried out under our supervision."
"Okay." Thor just wanted to see the courtyard owner, whom even his father feared, as soon as possible. "Take me to see a man named Lin Fan."
Looking at his matter-of-fact expression, Li Zhenguo sighed inwardly.
This Thor probably has no idea what kind of door he's about to knock on.
"Mr. Sol, before you meet Mr. Lin, I must personally remind you of something." Li Zhenguo's expression became extremely serious.
"When you get there, put away your divine power, and even more so, put away your arrogance."
"Otherwise, the consequences will be something neither you nor Asgard can bear."
Thor's brows furrowed instantly, and a hint of displeasure flashed in his azure eyes.
"Are you teaching me how to do things?"
"I'm just stating a fact," Li Zhenguo calmly returned his gaze, "for your own good."
Thor remembered his father's instructions and finally suppressed his anger.
"Okay, I'll follow your rules."
A black Hongqi sedan drove into that alleyway filled with the aroma of cooking.
The car stopped at the entrance of the alley, and Li Zhenguo led Sol on foot into the alley.
The closer he got to the courtyard house, the less arrogant Saul looked, and the more serious he became, without even realizing it himself.
He sensed an aura.
An aura that defies description—vast, ancient, peaceful, yet imbued with supreme majesty.
It is purer than the sacred radiance of the heavenly palace.
Its life force is even more ancient than that of the World Tree.
Under the influence of this aura, the surging power of the Thunder God within him was suppressed and its flow became sluggish.
Like a noisy child who has entered an ancient library with hundreds of millions of books, instinctively holding their breath.
Thor's heart sank lower and lower.
He finally understood.
The father's concerns were not unfounded.
There's a really big problem here!
They arrived at the entrance of the courtyard house.
A blond young man was idly sweeping fallen leaves in front of the door with a large broom.
Thor's pupils contracted to pinpoints the moment he saw that face!
"Loki!"
He cried out in a hoarse voice.
The young man sweeping the floor was none other than his long-lost brother, Loki, the god of mischief, whom he had searched for throughout the nine realms!
Upon hearing that familiar voice, Loki's hair stood on end, and he abruptly looked up.
When he saw Thor's face, a mixture of surprise and astonishment, his own face turned deathly pale!
"Sol?!"
"You...how did you get here?!"
"Little brother! I've finally found you!" Thor excitedly opened his arms and strode forward to give him a bear hug.
However, Loki's reaction struck him like a thunderbolt.
Loki's eyes widened in horror, and he made a "shush" gesture to him with lightning speed!
"Sh-!"
Loki's features were contorted with fear, and he hissed in a trembling, almost pleading voice:
"You idiot! Keep your voice down!"
"The boss is taking a nap!"
"Are you trying to kill both of us?!"
The boss... is taking a nap?
Thor's outstretched arms froze in mid-air.
He looked at his younger brother, who had once stirred up the winds and clouds of the Nine Realms and regarded all living beings as ants, now terrified out of his wits for fear of waking a mortal from his afternoon nap.
Thor's worldview was shattered by an invisible force at this moment.
Just then.
"Squeak—"
The seemingly ordinary wooden door opened inwards.
A man clad in full golden armor, exuding a commanding presence, stepped out of the door.
His brows furrowed, his eyes filled with extreme displeasure as he glanced at Saul and Li Zhenguo standing at the door.
"Who's making a fuss?"
Aiolia's voice wasn't loud, but it carried an undeniable air of authority.
"Don't you know that absolute silence is required when the boss is taking a break?"
His gaze fell on Thor as if he were looking at a fly that had no sense of its own mortality.
"State your name!"
"If you have something to say, say it; otherwise, get lost!"
"If you make another sound and disturb the boss..."
"You don't need to keep your tongue."
Thor.
The first prince of Asgard.
The future ruler of the Nine Realms.
At this moment, he was being reprimanded by a "golden security guard" he had never heard of before, who pointed his finger at him and spoke to him in a tone as if he were shooing away bedbugs.
He was completely stunned.
