Chapter 1100: Avoid You?
Crackling!
Standing in the center of the crater, Thor’s clothes were tattered, but the blue arcs of electricity surging from his body gave him an awe-inspiring and G.o.dlike appearance. Meanwhile, Lin Rui and Jack had retreated to the edge of the crater, unsure of what might happen next.
“Get out here!!” When Thor’s lightning reached its peak, he suddenly roared.
Swish, Swish, Swish!
The next moment, countless bolts of lightning erupted from Thor, filling the entire crater, not even sparing the positions where Jack and Lin Rui stood.
Phew!
Facing Thor’s indiscriminate attack, Jack supported Lin Rui, keeping him half-leaning against his own body to prevent him from falling. At the same time, Jack swiftly drew a magic spatial portal in front of them.
When the lightning struck, they were unscathed, as the lightning aimed at them was instantly sent away through the magic spatial portal.
Of course, apart from Lin Rui and Jack, the rest of the crater was covered in lightning, with no place to escape the a.s.sault.
Thor, who had carried out this large-scale, indiscriminate attack, carefully observed the surroundings. He had antic.i.p.ated Jack’s response, otherwise, he wouldn’t have been so confident in conducting such an indiscriminate a.s.sault.
Boom, Boom, Boom!
After Thor’s lightning attack lasted for a while, his expression suddenly changed. His entire being gathered up as he controlled the scattered lightning in the crater to converge at a specific location.
“Found you!!” As the lightning converged towards a single point, Thor whispered under his breath.
Boom, boom, boom!
Bang!
Then, the location where Thor had concentrated the lightning force exploded fiercely. Countless twisted bolts of lightning burst open, losing Thor’s control, and scattered in all directions at the bottom of the crater. Evidently, something at that spot counterattacked the lightning attack.
Phew!
After all the lightning dissipated from the explosion, a power distinct from Thor’s lightning quickly spread outward, instantly neutralizing the scattered lightning, restoring the calmness of the crater.
Seemingly unsurprised that his lightning attack had been easily swept away, Thor also retracted the thunderous power he had released as that force swept through. He then lifted his head to look at the spot where he had primarily attacked just moments ago. At that very location, where there had been nothing, a figure had appeared.
“Loki… Have you finally stopped hiding?” With a complicated expression, Thor gazed at the figure about a dozen meters away from him, and his tone sounded inexplicably emotional.
…
Phew, phew~
After Thor uttered those words while looking at the sudden appearance of the figure, the atmosphere at the bottom of the crater seemed to grow somewhat solemn.
Jack, who had been supporting Lin Rui at the edge of the crater, had also dispelled the magic spatial portal in front of them and joined Lin Rui in gazing at the mysterious figure. However, the expressions in their eyes were entirely different.
“Indeed… Loki…” Leaning half of his body against Jack’s, Lin Rui muttered softly as he looked at the figure that had been engraved in his mind long ago.
There was no need for further speculation; from the clearing of Thor’s lightning, the appearance of the figure, and Thor’s words, Lin Rui was already certain that the person who had appeared out of nowhere was Loki, the second prince of Asgard, who had threatened him months ago, vowing to keep Thor forever on Earth.
“What’s going on? Jackson, do you know this Loki?” Hearing Lin Rui’s murmurs, Jack turned his head curiously and asked.
“Yeah, I know him. Like Thor, he is also an Asgardian and the second prince of Asgard. However, unlike Thor, Loki is not a warrior but a Sorcerer.” In response to Jack’s inquiry, Lin Rui explained in a hushed tone.
“Both of them are from Asgard? And Loki is a Sorcerer?” Jack continued to divert his gaze to where Loki stood. Clearly, he was already interested in this Loki.
“Yeah, let’s not talk about this for now. Let’s see what’s happening over there first,” Lin Rui whispered, reminding Jack.
Subsequently, Jack and Lin Rui resumed their quiet observation from the edge of the crater, behaving like onlookers. As their gaze focused ahead, the tall figure had already become vividly clear before them. It could only be Loki, for who else could it be?
…
“My dear brother, do you miss these little pranks?” In response to Thor’s questioning, Loki, who had now revealed himself and was no longer hiding, slowly raised his head to look at Thor. He then nonchalantly inquired.
“Miss it? Why do you think I insisted on staying on Earth all this time?” Thor was left exasperated by his brother’s sudden antics.
It’s worth mentioning that after Loki’s last encounter with Thor, Jane Foster had broken up with Thor. Although Thor had been trying hard to win Jane back, she hadn’t rekindled their relationship yet. However, there was still a good chance for Thor to pursue her again. But if Loki interfered now, Thor believed he wouldn’t stand a chance.
“Is it still because of that Earth woman?” Hearing Thor’s counter-question, Loki seemed to be touched by something, and his tone became different.
“No, it’s not. I just genuinely want to avoid you,” Thor replied, his expression stern, once Loki mentioned Jane Foster.
“Avoid me? Thor, I am currently Asgard’s most accomplished prince. Laufey is hiding in Jotunheim and dare not show his face, all thanks to my strikes.” Faced with Thor’s response, Loki raised his head slightly and spoke in an arrogant tone.
“Enough of that. Why have you come to Earth now? Don’t tell me it’s just to play pranks on me,” Thor said, ignoring Loki’s words, and continued his inquiry.
If Thor’s powers had already fully recovered to their former level, he wouldn’t care why Loki had come to Earth. If Loki annoyed him, he could simply give him a beating and send him back. However, now Thor’s powers were far from recovered.
“I was getting bored in Asgard, thought I’d take a stroll on Earth.” In response to Thor’s questioning, Loki replied nonchalantly.
Of course, whether Loki had genuinely come to Earth out of boredom or had some other purpose, Thor wouldn’t be able to pry it out of him even if he used his recovered strength to pressure Loki.
