Chapter 1019: Chapter 806: The Correct Way to Switch Factions_4
âItâs possible. He livestreamed previously, and their spatial seal isnât very strong. If necessary, I can directly open a portal to their mothership.â
Hearing Tao Yu say this, Nick Furyâs eyes brightened, and he quickly responded,
âIf we can do that, itâd be ideal. The success rate of jumping onboard their ships with our aircraft isnât great. Now that they hijacked this livestream signal, itâs practically a declaration of war. Letâs strike first then.â
âAlright, I can send you over. Are you ready?â
Tao Yuâs words caused everyone present to nod solemnly.
Over twenty Winter Soldiers and thirty Iron Armors had already gathered nearby.
âThen, I wish you all safe travels.â
Tao Yu raised both hands simultaneously.
Above each personâs head, a glowing halo began to form. As it descended, it enveloped them entirely, and they vanished from where they stood.
Meanwhile, the Zirita side had already unleashed vast legions heading toward Earth, clearly intending to breach the atmosphere!
Besides some landing giants resembling massive insects,
many individual Zirita warriors seemed to be riding floating motorcycles, using their protective gear to propel them toward Earthâs atmosphere.
At this point, even casual astronomy enthusiasts could see the movements of the Zirita army through ordinary telescopes.
The sight of such a dense army preparing to charge Earthâs atmosphere struck terror into many hearts.
But at the same time, some were puzzled and bemused.
In an interstellar age, isnât invasion usually preceded by orbital bombardments?
Earth might lack suborbital defense systems, but against this, wouldnât they all be sitting ducks?
Shouldnât they start with some battleship artillery?
Whatâs the point of this showy introduction?
Perhaps the enemy sees Earth as their property now and doesnât want to engage in wanton destructionâŠ
Even on the Space Airship, Nick Fury and the Earthâs Allied Forces, prepared for battle nearby, were perplexed by the Zirita strategy.
The situation had felt hopelessâunable to hit the enemy while taking relentless fire.
Lokiâs explanation of Zirita equipment had left Earthâs side feeling defeated.
Yet now they werenât even using it and were going straight for close combat?
This made Nick Fury feel like his own âboarding tacticâ strategy was less ridiculous by comparison.
At least his plan was a desperate measure with some feasibility.
But the Zirita army now seemed completely chaotic!
For the moment, their actions were oddly favorable.
At least now they could engage in atmospheric skirmishes.
This wasnât due to the enemyâs mercy, was itâŠ
âŠ
On the Zirita Mothership, Loki sat on the throne, wielding his scepter, roaring at the Zirita commanders before him,
âYou fools! If we simply bomb them from afar, the losses wonât come from my future kingdom! How will they even know who the enemy is before theyâre wiped out? We must showcase our strength! Now, go!â
Leaning on the Mind Scepter, Loki flaunted his borrowed power.
He cared nothing for the lives of the Zirita warriors; he merely wanted a stunning victory, a public spectacle.
Whatâs fun about overwhelming firepower?
I want fists colliding with flesh!
âLord Loki, you must understandâŠâ
A Zirita general, visibly upset, seemed defiant.
But in the next moment, the hall was filled with electrical portals appearing everywhere.
One figure after another materialized seemingly out of thin air.
âAhaha, Jack, you finally dared to face me?â
Seeing the multitude of teleportation portals, Loki gripped his scepter once more and stood, his face brimming with excitement.
The entire reason for his livestream and scattering the Zirita army had been to lure Jack out!
âIf you beg me, I might show Earth some mercy, haha! Supreme Mage, have you made up your mind to protect your world?â
However, as Loki finished delivering his well-rehearsed lines, fully adjusted his posture, and looked entirely self-satisfiedâŠ
He wiped his eyes and realized the damned mage was nowhere in sight?
Wasnât he fond of wearing a noticeable white robe? He should be obvious!
But why did the portals appear, yet he was absent?
Loki felt as if heâd been ready to punch someone, only to swing into thin air.
Just then, Hoganâs voice rang out first,
âLoki! Youâve betrayed Asgard! You disgraceful traitor!â
âWhereâs Jack? Why are you here instead?â
Loki swung the Mind Scepter, firing a high-energy beam aimed near Hogan.
Though Hogan managed to dodge awkwardly, the blast still sent him flying from the shockwave.
The immense energy impact seemed to shake the entire hall, with violent air currents sweeping the area!
The Infinite Gemâs power truly lived up to its name, even if the Mind Stone wasnât specialized in physical destruction. A casual strike unleashed by Loki carried astonishing power.
âWeâre more than capable of dealing with you!â
âJack needs to focus on the Zirita army and has no time for you!â
A chorus of voices followed, and Tony had already rushed toward Loki at high speed.
Facing the scepterâs incoming energy blast, he quickly drew a circle in mid-air and followed it with another inverted circle, reflecting the attack back at Loki.
The rebound caught Loki off guard, leaving him disheveledâŠ
âYouâre courting death!â
Loki had returned to exact revenge and to confront Jack, only for his grand declaration of war to result in being ambushed by a group of Karami instead.
This filled him with enormous rage and frustration.
Turning to the Zirita officers next to him, he shouted,
âTake them down for me!â
The Zirita warriors present didnât hesitate; each pulled out advanced weaponry and charged at the Avengers.
At the same time, Loki raised his scepter again, preparing to strike.
But as he lifted it, something struck him abruptly, causing him to stumble and drop the scepter.
Pym, transformed into Ant-Man, reverted to full size and grabbed the scepter to flee.
âOh no! My scepter!â
Loki, having his weapon stolen by a mere mortal, was consumed by anger.
This wasnât just any weaponâit was the scepter of a cosmic Original Stone. While seemingly subtle in its attacks, Loki had held back from causing greater destruction to avoid wrecking the mothership itself.
The Mind Scepter also had the ongoing ability to manipulate thoughts and could have incited internal conflict among the Avengers.
Yet just as the fight began, the scepter was snatched!
As Lokiâs face twisted with fury, he cast a spell, accelerating to chase after Pym.
But then he suddenly felt a tight grip on his ankle.
He turned back and saw a massive green figure gripping his leg tightlyâthe Hulk smirked evilly at him.
Duang~Duang~Duang~
His head heavy and body light, Loki found himself soaring through the air, being grabbed and slammed repeatedly by the Hulk.
Though the Zirita army wreaked havoc seemingly unopposed, onboard the mothership, Loki and his generals were being utterly dominated in hand-to-hand combat.
These moments were broadcast live via Iron Manâs streamâŠ
Suddenly, Earthlings discovered:
The alien army? Not so invincible after all!
While Pym reveled in stealing the scepter and prepared to escape the battlefield,
suddenly, the scepter was violently snatched away through a terrifying external force.
It landed in the hands of a slender, skeletal figure.
From the shadows of the hall emerged two figures.
One was this slim, abstract-looking thief, holding the Mind Scepter. The other was a hulking warrior clad in armor, matching the Hulk in stature.
âLoki, you truly are a failure.â
Blackout, wielding the Mind Scepter and gliding through the air via telekinesis, mocked Loki coldly.
Despite being an Asgardian Divine Spirit and undeniably possessing greater strength than anyone else present, Loki had been reduced to a pitiful state. What a disgrace.
