The Martial God of the Marvel World

Chapter 359 No Redemption
"Who cares?" Loki still looked like he was waiting to die, not caring about anything.

He may not care, but the Avengers can't accept it.

"How can that be possible? Without the Reality Stone, how are we supposed to complete the rescue plan?" Everyone was at a loss and became impatient. Nebula even wanted to use force against Loki.

"Okay, everyone, stop!" Steve quickly stopped everyone. "Loki is now determined to die, what else can you do to him?"

"Tony, do you have any idea how to make a radar or something like that to find the Infinity Stones?" When you are in trouble, just go to Tony Stark.

But this time Steve was disappointed. Tony shrugged and said helplessly: "The universe is too vast. There is no equipment that can detect the entire universe. And I have never seen ether particles, and I don't know anything about its fluctuations. I can only say that you can use the existing gems as a reference and give it a try, but don't hold your hopes too high."

"Okay, just do your best!" Steve sighed and turned to look at Loki, who was playing badly. "Loki, you probably don't need the Mind Stone now, right? Do you mind lending it to us?"

Loki didn't say anything, he just swung his hand, and the Mind Scepter flew out of thin air and was caught by Steve.

"Huh..." Steve let out a long breath, feeling much more excited. "This is the second gem!"

He looked at Thor who was in a trance, hesitated for a moment, but finally came to Thor and hugged him tightly, "Thor, I know you are in great pain now, but life is like this, we can't stop. We should go..."

After being persuaded and pulled by everyone, Thor left with the main force in a daze.

But before stepping onto the super battleship, Thor looked back and saw Loki still standing in front of the Asgard gate like a dead man. He couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart and blurted out: "You guys go first, I want to stay for a while."

Steve frowned and said, "Thor, we don't belong to this universe. You will leave here sooner or later."

"I know, Steve, I know everything." Thor took a deep breath and wiped his face hard to wipe away his tears. "But I can't just leave Loki here. He... If I don't watch him, he will definitely get me into trouble, do you understand? I can't just ignore him!" Thor's voice choked again.

"Okay, Thor, we all understand your thoughts." Steve patted his back and comforted him, "But this Loki is not your brother, he has his own brother! Your brother is waiting for you to return in another universe!"

"No!" Thor shook his head in disappointment, "No more!"

"We all know that even if we get back the six Infinity Stones, it will only resurrect those killed by Thanos' snap of his fingers. And before that, Loki will be dead."

"You guys go ahead, I'll catch up. I just... need to find a place to rest."

Everyone felt uncomfortable looking at the depressed Thor.

"Okay, our next stop is Earth, we'll meet there." Steve hugged Thor tightly and whispered in his ear: "Thor, please remember that you are not the only one suffering. We need you!"

"I will. I'm just taking a break."

Everyone came up to hug Thor, and then boarded the warship one by one. The warship rose into the air, and everyone stood at the porthole and looked out. The figures on the ground gradually shrank, and finally could no longer be seen.

"Will he catch up?" Scott asked worriedly.

"Yes! We have to trust him!" Steve answered firmly, "We insisted on not interfering in this universe before, and we have made many mistakes. We have lost many allies and our current situation has become so bad. Now that we have recognized the mistakes, we must correct them in time."

"Thor is a determined warrior. I am sure he will come back... maybe bring Loki with him."

"Next, we need to help each of our friends, and then they will naturally be willing to help us."

"We refused to intervene in the Earth Civil War before, which greatly disappointed Natasha. Now we must make up for our mistake."

"We go to Earth, and we must talk to all of us in this universe and gain their support."

"Searching for the Reality Gem in the vast universe is a very difficult task. The more people participate, the better."

The super battleship accelerated to the critical point, broke through the air and entered the space-time channel, heading towards the earth.

After watching his companions leave, Thor turned back to the gate of Asgard, stood beside Loki, and said nothing.

His mood now is very complicated, and it is impossible for him to say that he does not hate.

The Loki in this world is more mischievous than his original brother, but in the original universe, Loki's martial arts value is not high enough, and he can be called a weak chicken god. There are too many strong people who can stop him from doing evil. But in this world, there is such a hateful thing as magnetic field rotation, which makes Loki a powerful warrior.

If that were all, it would be fine, but he happened to get the Reality Stone. Putting the two together, this god of lies and mischief finally got into trouble.

The cost of losing control was so severe that the entire Asgard was filled with it.

And Loki himself made a mistake that he would regret for the rest of his life.

It is conceivable that Loki will spend the rest of his life in pain and regret and will never be able to get relief.

Thor sighed, turned around and walked into Asgard without saying a word.

It had been a long time since the incident, but because Loki himself had gone mad, he had left all the bodies there except for a grave for his mother Frigga, and was immersed in the illusions he had created all day. Therefore, the entire Asgard had not been cleaned up at all, and it was still the same scene as when the tragedy happened.

Although there is a divine shield in Asgard, which makes the planet like spring all year round and the air is clean and not easy to spoil, after such a long time, many corpses have still begun to rot.

Thor took the tools and started from the gate of Asgard, collecting the remains of all the Asgard warriors bit by bit. Then he built a simple grave for each of them in a beautiful place somewhere on the planet, erected a tombstone and engraved their name on it.

He didn't say anything, but collected the bodies one by one and buried them in batches.

Loki was still lying at the gate of Asgard like a dead body, motionless, but the magnetic field sent Thor's every move into Loki's mind and forced it into his mind.

Loki just watched, watching his brother sort out Asgard bit by bit, just like he did back then, helping him clean up the mess time and time again. Tears once again couldn't be stopped from flowing out of his eyes, turning his head into a pile of mud.

The sun rises and sets, the clouds roll and relax.

I don’t know when it started, but Loki got up from the ground, silently came behind his brother, and did these things with him.

The originally lonely figure has now become a pair, one in front and one behind, each doing their own thing.

The two brothers didn't say a word, they just kept their heads down and continued cleaning.

Both of them are not ordinary people. Their movements are much more agile than those of ordinary workers, and their efficiency is more than ten thousand times higher.

The two started from the gate of Asgard, all the way to the Golden Palace, then to the World Tree, the Spring of Urd, and then spread out to the surrounding areas. After a few days, the entire planet had been cleaned up by the two people.

When the last corpse was brought into the cemetery, buried, and a tombstone was erected, Thor let out a long breath, looked at the huge cemetery that stretched as far as the eye could see, turned his head, looked at his brother, and said gently:

"Brother, I know you are very sad now and wish you could die."

“I’ve had that feeling before.”

"In the universe I came from, my father also died, but fortunately he died of old age. My mother was killed by the dark elves, and even you... died in front of me."

"In order to defeat the goddess of death Hela, I released the fire giants and destroyed Asgard. The people who escaped met Thanos again and half of them were randomly killed."

"As the God King of Asgard, I am powerless in the face of this."

"I cannot protect the country and resist foreign enemies. I am not worthy of being a king!"

"I failed to protect my mother. I am not a qualified son!"

"I watched you die in front of my eyes trying to save me, but I was powerless to do anything. You are not worthy of being a brother at all!"

He stretched out his hand to stop Loki from interrupting and continued:
"At that time, I also felt that my life was meaningless and I thought about dying."

"I was lost for five years until my companions found me and told me that I could go back in time and collect the six Infinity Stones to correct past mistakes and save half of the universe."

"I'm coming!"

Thor took a deep breath, looked up at the sunset in the distance, and his tone became a little low.

"But something unexpected happened. We didn't go back to the past, but came to a parallel world, a world that is completely different from what we remember."

"All our plans have been disrupted!"

"We even distorted our own will in order to consider the overall situation."

"But this is even worse. We have been here for almost three years, but we have only collected two of the six Infinity Stones so far. It is unknown whether we can complete the plan and collect all six Infinity Stones."

“That’s the case with many things in life.”

"We can only do our best and leave the rest to fate."

"But no matter what, we can't give up."

"I'm leaving now. My companions are still waiting for me. They need my strength!"

"I can only stay here with you for a few days. I can't stay with you any longer. You need to keep going on your life path by yourself."

"Loki, my brother, I cannot say I forgive you. But, even if you did this, I still have to tell you..."

Thor hugged Loki tightly, very tightly, trying to convey his feelings to his brother.

"I love you!"

"Father God and Mother Queen also love you!"

"Father God would rather let his powerful divine power destroy his body than let you escape the control of the ether particles!"

"The Queen Mother would rather sacrifice her life to wake you up. She did this not for the gods of Asgard, but because she didn't want you to indulge in illusory power, make a big mistake, and regret it for the rest of your life!"

"Remember, brother, you are not alone. They have been watching over you and praying for you in Valhalla. They hope that you can get out of the haze and live happily."

"So, Loki, no matter how bleak the reality is, don't give up. Keep going until the day you see hope!"

Thor let go of Loki, who was in tears, summoned the Storm Axe, and leaped up into the clouds. After reaching the sky, Thor looked back at his brother again, then turned around and left resolutely.

Loki reached out his hand to his brother who was walking away, but this time Thor did not look back.

The sky is boundless, white clouds are floating, the breeze is blowing gently, leaves are rustling and flying all over the sky, and it looks desolate.

Looking at Asgard which had become empty again, Loki fell to his knees in the cemetery powerlessly, holding his head in his hands, banging his head on the ground and howling.

Brother is back!
My brother is gone again!
He was alone again!
At that moment just now, he had wanted to follow his brother, but at the critical moment, he backed down.

His knot is hard to untie!

He can't forgive himself!
Even now he was very sure that his deceased parents and brother had never blamed him.

But it was because he knew very well in his heart that his deceased parents and brother had never blamed him!
So he couldn't forgive himself even more!

He killed his brother with his own hands, murdered his father, forced his mother to death, and destroyed the entire Asgard... How could such a serious mistake be easily resolved because of a few words?
A knot that is easily untied is not a knot at all!
The ways to untie the knot in your heart are either the long-term companionship of family and friends, or self-venting, or it can only be worn away over a long period of time.

Just like Valkyrie, it took her a full thousand years to untie her knot!
But for Loki, all his relatives and friends were dead, and his newest brother from another world, Thor, didn't have the time to stay with him for long.

As for self-relief and catharsis, if Loki had this method, he would not have spent the whole day playing house in Asgard.

He regarded Thor from another world as his spiritual pillar and a beacon of salvation, but pillars will eventually fall and beacons will always go out.

The only one who can redeem him is himself!

If he cannot muster up the courage to face his past, defeat himself, resolve his own problems, and walk out of his psychological shadow, he will always be a prisoner of the past, and nightmares will haunt him forever. He will only torture himself all the time, and will be forever trapped in the cage of Asgard, unable to take a single step out.

The more you escape, the less likely you will be to be free!
Valkyrie escaped for a thousand years and was tortured by nightmares for a thousand years!

It can be said that from the moment Loki made such a big mistake, he was destined to live in regret for the rest of his life.

No! Can’t! Be! Saved! Redeemed!
