Chapter 1015: Sealed Ability and Beating Up the “Weakest Chicken In History”
Although a certain crown prince had been calm in front of Dr. Jane, his own father had cast him out, and it seemed that Mjölnir had abandoned him. The emotions had long been building up inside him.
He could only keep calm for the time being. The negative emotions didn’t disappear, but were hidden under the surface in his heart.
But after a few words, Thor exploded when the guards at the entrance shoved him again.
Almost instantly, he beat the two guards to the ground.
The alarm rang, and a bunch of guards rushed over.
When they saw Thor, they didn’t use guns.
After all, Thor had Jane with him. No matter how they looked at it, they looked like a harmless albeit meddlesome couple. Killing and injuring civilians wasn’t part of the rules.
In the end, after beating up more than ten agents, Thor was still taken down.
What was even more unfortunate was that the agents had come to investigate his and Jane’s ident.i.ties, and found the makes.h.i.+ft housing.
Who knew what they found, but someone soon confiscated Dr. Selvig and Dr. Jane’s research materials and equipment, saying that they would be returned after a check.
Dr. Jane tried her best to argue, but in the end… they took her most important laptop.
Hearing that she had important research on her laptop, a middle-aged man with a receding hairline gave her a look, and the FBI agents next to her s.n.a.t.c.hed the laptop away.
Dr. Jane couldn’t accept this. The laptop had key data which she had been researching for years.
Now that her notes and laptop had been confiscated, all the research they had done over the past few years had gone to waste.
Darcy spoke very quickly, and the two of them walked very quickly. This girl wasn’t athletic, and she was already panting before they reached the top of the hill.
Seeing that she had to give a running commentary while carrying such a heavy “burden,” Luke could only help her.
Holding her waist, he said, “I’ll take you up.”
Darcy was shocked. “Huh? Isn’t this a little too fast… Wow, you’re so fast.”
Amused, Luke said, “I’ll talk to the FBI later. Work with Dr. Selvig and get Dr. Jane away. Don’t let her cause any more trouble, okay?”
Darcy: “Oh, you can do it?”
As soon as she said the words, she was a little embarra.s.sed. “I didn’t mean it like that; it’s just that it feels like these FBI agents aren’t easy to deal with, so…”
Luke said, “I’ll see if I can talk to someone I know. I can only try, however. After all, I’m just a police officer.”
Darcy nodded. “That’s tru- erm.”
This time, she finally cut herself off in time. It would be too bad of her otherwise, to call him in a panic to help and then roast him for not being able to do anything.
Luke didn’t mind.
This girl had been born snarky, even to herself.
With his heart that had been tempered a thousand times in his previous life, he only found this girl interesting, not to mention that she was very nice-looking.
After a few words, he led Darcy to the entrance of the containment zone.
Not far away, Selvig and Jane were talking.
Jane was clearly frustrated as she paced back and forth, her voice occasionally getting louder.
But ultimately, she had good manners. Her anger wasn’t directed at Selvig, and she was simply raising her voice in agitation.
Luke let go of Darcy’s slightly supple waist, and gestured at her before he walked over to the guard at the entrance.
Faced with the two guards who were clearly more vigilant, he didn’t approach them. Instead, he took out his phone ten meters away and called Phil.
He hung up after a few words and stared at the two guards.
Then, the guard suddenly raised one hand to his earpiece as if he was listening to an order. A moment later, he looked at Luke. “Name?”
Luke walked over. “Luke Coulson.”
The two guards looked at each other, and one of them gestured. “Follow me. Don’t look around and don’t run around, or you might be killed on the spot.”
Luke said, “Got it.”
A few minutes later, Luke walked into a corner surrounded by plastic sheets. A middle-aged man in a black suit was standing there, looking at the work below. It was Phil.
Hearing footsteps, he turned around and waved at the guard with a smile.
The guard left.
Luke asked, “Are we going to talk here?”
Phil looked down at the hammer and nodded. “A little over there.”
They walked to the corner and talked in low voices.
Half an hour later, Luke rubbed his wrist as he was escorted out by the guards. When he recalled the system notification, however, his mood was a little complicated.
System: You have defeated Thor Odinson and received a list of his abilities.
Thor’s abilities: Elementary Tactical Command, Elementary Cold Weapon Proficiency, Advanced One-Handed Hammer Proficiency… Elementary Asgardian General Knowledge (50,000 credit points, partially available)
What left him in a strange mood was the last “partially available.”
After spending 50,000 credits without any hesitation to learn this ability, Luke found that it was basically common knowledge, and had practically nothing on the Asgardian technological (magical) system like he had imagined.
It was like an ancient person from another world obtaining a book t.i.tled “A Compendium of General Knowledge of Earth,” only to open it and discover that it contained primary-school knowledge which everybody on Earth knew.
Was it useless? No.
It would become more useful to Luke in the long run.
Without a foundation, it was hard to understand more profound knowledge, and he still had a chance to obtain more of the latter.
After Luke’s prodding, the system finally gave him a brief explanation.
System: You defeated Thor Odinson (Sealed)…
Thor’s abilities: Elementary Tactical Command… Elementary Asgardian General Knowledge (50,000 credit points, sealed, partially available)
The incomplete version of general knowledge which Luke had learned hence might have something to do with Thor being sealed by Odin.
It was very likely that this knowledge had been “sealed” by Odin.
It was indeed not easy to obtain the abilities of a “G.o.d.”
Thinking this, he walked out of the containment zone. The three people who were already tired of talking stared at him.
When Luke walked over, Dr. Jane couldn’t wait to rush over and ask, “How did it go? Luke, can they let him go?”
Luke chuckled inwardly. It seemed she was even more concerned about the man than her research.
As he thought this, he nodded slightly. “They’re going to ask Thor a few routine questions, and check over your equipment and files. It might take half a day, so go back to the units and wait.”
Of course, he couldn’t say that he had worn a mask and beat up Thor, the “weakest chicken in history,” much less that he was ready to throw out a long line to catch a big fish after his talk with Phil.
Hearing that, Dr. Jane was a little anxious. “Are you sure it’ll be alright?”
