Lu Mingfei doesn't want to be a superhero

"Loki! Why did you do this!" Thor's hands trembled.

If he had been tricked normally, he wouldn't have reacted so strongly. The key issue was that something terrifying was haunting his mind—just now, when Jane was with him during rehearsal, he hadn't performed very well, and Jane had given him an encouraging kiss, a French kiss, to cheer him up.

If Loki was already impersonating Jane at that time...

Thor felt dizzy, and his stomach was spinning too.

"Thor!" Jane strode down from the ruins, her face contorted with rage. She stood before Thor, hands on her hips, glaring at him. "I'm not Loki in disguise! How could you not recognize me? Are you really my boyfriend?"

Thor paused for a moment, then immediately raised Mjolnir and assured her, "Jane, you can rest assured, I am absolutely the real Thor, your boyfriend, not Loki in disguise. I swear on this hammer!"

Jane covered her face: "That's not what I meant."

“No, Thor, you’ve misunderstood,” Lu Mingfei raised his hand and said, “What I mean is, Loki is under the pile of rubble that Miss Jane just stepped on; he’s buried there.”

"So that's how it is!" Thor breathed a sigh of relief.

The ruins trembled a few times, and soil and stones slid down in a trickle.

"Loki!" Thor realized that his brother seemed to have been buried alive. He quickly threw Mjolnir, and the immense force swept through the ruins, blowing away the bricks and stones that buried Loki, revealing Loki with curly hair, slightly charred skin, and lifeless eyes.

The amazing thing is that Loki's scepter, which was just struck by lightning and buried, seems to be undamaged now.

"Loki, are you alright?" Thor rushed over and helped Loki up.

Although he was furious at his brother's mistake, Loki looked so miserable that he was afraid his brother might die if he didn't make it.

“Brother…I…you…” Loki tremblingly reached out his hand to Thor.

Thor grabbed Loki's hand: "Loki, how are you?"

“You…you haven’t changed at all, brother…” Loki said, trembling. “You’re still so…so…”

"Yes, I still care about you just the same. Even though you did something wrong, you're my brother, and that will never change!" Thor gripped Loki's hand tightly.

“You’re still…so stupid!” Loki’s eyes suddenly turned fierce, and he stabbed Thor in the side with his dagger.

To Thor's disbelief, Loki shoved him violently toward Lu Mingfei and the others, then rolled over, grabbed his scepter, and vanished into thin air.

Lu Mingfei caught Thor, who was being pushed away, while Loki's mocking laughter echoed from all directions: "Hahahaha, I am the greatest sorcerer of the Nine Realms, the God of Mischief! You will never catch the great Loki..."

Lu Mingfei casually tossed out the Silver Oak Sword, and silver threads wove into a large net in mid-air. The net tightened near the hole in the ceiling, enveloping something transparent. Loki was forced to reveal himself, but he was still struggling.

Several thin threads extended from the large net woven from the silver oak sword and draped over Thor's hammer, Mjolnir.

Both being artifacts forged by the Dwarf King, the Silver Oak Sword and Thor's Mjolnir seemed to resonate with each other. Thor's Mjolnir suddenly erupted with a bright burst of lightning, which traveled along the Silver Oak Sword, causing Loki, trapped in the net, to tremble and fall to the ground.

P.S.: The next chapter is being written.

Chapter 159 Hydra: Loki, I'm here to discuss cooperation.

The filming location for Captain America is located in the northwestern suburbs of Los Angeles, near Universal Studios Hollywood.

Tony opened his mask, removed one glove from his armor, and placed his palm on Loki's body, "Snake" probing Loki's physiological state.

"How is Loki?" Thor asked, clutching his side.

Lu Mingfei couldn't help but admire Thor's brotherly love for Loki. He had just been stabbed in the kidney by his brother, yet he was still concerned about his brother's safety.

“Don’t worry, he won’t die,” Tony said. “His vital signs are stable, he’s not in any danger… Damn, he’s not in any danger?”

“Although Loki is not an Asgardian, as a Frost Giant, his physical abilities are not much worse than those of an Asgardian,” Thor released his hand from his kidney, the bleeding had stopped, and stepped forward, saying, “He was originally banished from the Nine Realms by the Father, and I don’t know how he came to Earth. I want to take him back to face the Father’s judgment again.”

"Wait!" Tony suddenly said, "You're just taking him away like that? He wrecked my lab."

“Although he is a frost giant, he is also a prince of Asgard, and only Asgard can judge him,” Thor said, looking at Tony. “Besides, your Earth has no power to judge him.”

“How could we not have one?” Tony retorted sharply. “We have the Hulk.”

"Hulk! Attack!" Hulk roared.

Thor's expression changed slightly—the Hulk does indeed have the ability to harm Loki.

Tony and Thor locked eyes, their unseen auras clashing.

“Wait a minute,” Lu Mingfei stepped forward, “both of you calm down first.”

Tony and Thor reluctantly looked away.

Thor still held a good impression of Lu Mingfei, who had helped him save Jotunheim and spared Asgard from war. Now that Lu Mingfei had spoken, he couldn't ignore him. However, he didn't notice that after the atmosphere between him and Tony eased, Tony and Lu Mingfei secretly exchanged glances.

“Thor, Loki can be taken back to Asgard. After all, we don’t want this to escalate into a diplomatic incident between two civilizations,” Lu Mingfei said. “But he inexplicably appeared here, first taking a copy of the Tesseract, then fighting the Hulk and destroying the laboratory set that Tony spent a huge amount of money to build. There has to be an explanation, right?”

Natasha, sitting in the corner, twitched at the corner of her mouth.

She noticed that Lu Mingfei seemed to be getting more and more cunning, at least much more so than when they first met. Not only did he call the Tesseract movie prop a "copy," but he also stared wide-eyed as he described Hulk's one-sided abuse of Loki as a "battle." He even deliberately exaggerated the value of the laboratory—the loss of these instruments was indeed a considerable expense, but for Tony Stark, it was far from a "huge cost," probably not even as much as the cost of one of his suits of armor.

From an agent's perspective, Natasha felt that Lu Mingfei's face was now etched with "insidiousness".

But when Thor heard Lu Mingfei's words, his first reaction was, "That makes sense."

So Thor decisively said to Lu Mingfei, "I will compensate for these losses."

"Use the magical metal ore that is a specialty of the Celestial Palace?" Lu Mingfei asked.

Thor nodded first, then added, "If you don't want to, you can change it to something else."

“No problem, ore!” Lu Mingfei said decisively.

“The Asgardians usually use the Rainbow Bridge for transportation, but magical ores contain great power. In the energy of the Rainbow Bridge, magical ores may become unstable and explode, so they cannot be transported by the Rainbow Bridge,” Thor said. “In order to transport magical ores to the Dwarven Kingdom, Asgard has several small wormhole ships specifically for transportation.”

“I’ll go back to Asgard now and bring back the magic ore. It will probably take a few days,” Thor said, picking up his hammer. “In the meantime, you can keep Loki locked up.”

“No problem!” Lu Mingfei nodded decisively.

“Alright,” Thor looked up and called out, “Hamdal, take me back to Asgard.”

"You're just leaving like that?" Jane, who was brought by Thor, stared wide-eyed.

“I’m sorry, Jane, my brother needs me right now,” Thor said apologetically. “I’ll bring you a gift from Asgard when I get back.”

Before Jane could say anything, the light from the Rainbow Bridge fell from the sky, taking Thor away and leaving Jane sulking.

“That’s how long-distance relationships are, just communicate more.” Lu Mingfei went over to comfort her, and casually gave Tony a knowing look.

Tony returned the same look.

Although they didn't speak, they reached a tacit understanding through their eyes—they would use this opportunity to extort money from Saul.

Natasha stood in the corner, silent.

Hey... I mean, doesn't anyone care about S.H.I.E.L.D.'s opinion? I'm still standing right here!

"Natasha!"

Just as Natasha was going crazy, Lu Mingfei suddenly came over and called her.

"What's wrong?" Natasha asked, startled.

“Tony and I don’t have a suitable place to lock Loki up. Could we borrow your S.H.I.E.L.D. prison for the next few days?” Lu Mingfei asked.

Natasha: ...

……

When Loki opened his eyes again, he found himself in a prison made entirely of metal. Apart from a thick, transparent wall of unknown material directly in front of him, he was surrounded by metal.

A bald man wearing an eye patch stood outside the prison.

"An alien from Asgard?" The bald man stood behind the transparent wall, staring at Loki with his one eye. "Your way of visiting Earth isn't exactly friendly."

The transparent walls were thick and seemed to have a soundproofing effect; the bald man's voice came through a hidden loudspeaker.

"Visit? I've come to conquer you, mortals!" Loki sneered arrogantly—which, combined with his slightly charred face, was rather comical.

“Let me introduce myself. My name is Nick Fury. You could think of me as your warden,” Fury said.

“How dare you imprison a god! Where is Thor? Where is he?” Loki asked. “Does he intend to allow the gods of Asgard to be imprisoned and humiliated by mortals?”

“He probably doesn’t have time for you right now,” another person stepped out from behind the transparent wall, arms crossed, sizing up Loki. “By the way, I’d like to ask what your race is, a reindeer?”

"What reindeer?" Loki was stunned for a moment before realizing that the person in front of him was mocking him. He was furious. "You audacious mortal, how dare you insult a god!"

"If you insist on nonviolent non-cooperation, I'll have to find someone else. Or would you rather talk to Hulk?" Tony said calmly.

“You think you can threaten a great god?!” Loki retorted, sticking his neck out.

"By the way, Hulk is the big green baby you played the 'flying hammer' game with," Tony said.

A large green baby? You call that thing a baby?

Loki instinctively shuddered, the fear of being dominated by the flail washing over him.

"Well, Mr. Reindeer, can we talk now?" Tony said.

“What do you want to talk about?” Loki asked.

"Why did you come to Earth to steal that Rubik's Cube?" Tony asked.

Fury, standing to the side, said in a low voice, "I am the head of S.H.I.E.L.D., I should be the one asking."

“Isn’t it all the same no matter who asks?” Tony replied in a low voice. “Besides, I designed this prison for you.”

“The Tesseract? It’s a priceless treasure in the entire universe, of course I want to possess its power!” Loki said.

He had no intention of selling Thanos; offending a cosmic overlord would obviously be an incredibly foolish decision.

"What power does it have?" Tony asked.

“Unlimited energy; with it, energy will no longer have any value,” Loki said.

He didn't intend to tell ordinary people about the Cosmic Cube's ability to travel through space, because he guessed that ordinary people probably didn't have such a deep understanding of the Cosmic Cube.

"More than that, isn't it?" Tony countered. "Can't it also interfere with space?"

He had never seen the Tesseract before, nor had he studied it, but he had talked to Steve before coming. Steve said that when he was fighting Red Skull, Red Skull was accidentally sent into something that looked like a portal by the Tesseract.

"You know?" Loki was taken aback, then nodded decisively, half-jokingly saying, "The Tesseract also has the ability to travel through space, instantly moving from one point in the universe to another, and may even open a passage between the multiverses. But this ability is useless. The power of the Tesseract is too difficult to control. Using it to travel through space is suicidal as you can't control where you land. Its greatest value is the infinite energy within it."

“Very well, then hand over the Tesseract,” Tony said.

“That’s all.” Loki shrugged.

“What do you mean?” Fury asked.
