Chapter 175 Traveling Together

Looking at the figure appearing on the side of the deserted road, Jane hesitated and slowly slowed down the car.

"Why stop?"

When he noticed the car gradually stopping, Sol said a little puzzled.

"Because someone needs help." After stepping on the brakes, Jane explained to Sol on the side: "If we are on the way, maybe we can give him a ride."

"Is it because he stretched out his thumb?" Saul's eyes swept over the figure standing on the roadside, and he didn't have much feeling about his clothes. After all, in his eyes, the people in the atrium were all wearing weird clothes. It doesn't look any different.

Jane: "Yes."

"We don't do that in Asgard." Thor shrugged and raised his eyebrows: "Usually we just shout, or we can just do it."

"At least on Earth, that's what we do."

Jane was used to Sol's nonsense. She replied to Sol in the passenger seat, then pulled down the window and showed a kind smile to Bucciarati standing on the roadside: "Maybe, Is your destination also heading in this direction?"

"He should be Thor."

Through the car window, Bucciarati noticed the tall blond man in the passenger seat. He immediately converged his gaze and nodded to Jane in the driver's seat: "That's right."

"Then come up."

After waving her hand gently, Jane immediately said to Bucciarati.

…

boom--

After starting the car and driving on the deserted road, Jane looked at Bucciarati sitting in the back seat through the rearview mirror in the car. It wasn't until the other person got into the car that she noticed how unusual his attire was. It didn't look like something a New Mexico resident would dress at all.

"What's your destination?"

After driving the car for some distance, Jane couldn't help but ask Bucciarati in the back seat.

Looking sideways, looking at the monotonous scenery outside the car window, and hearing Jane's question, Bucciarati silently retracted his gaze, turned his gaze to Jane in the driver's seat, and replied: "I heard that a crater appeared nearby. .”

Upon hearing Bucciarati's words, Sol's face in the passenger seat changed involuntarily.

Deliberately ignoring Sol's changing expression, Bucciarati continued to reply: "I'm looking for a guy to stop him from doing something dangerous."

"I don't care what rumors you heard and wanted to go there." Frowning, Thor turned his head and looked at Bucciarati behind him, warning: "But you are destined to be disappointed. Thor's hammer does not belong to you. .”

"Are you talking to me?"

Turning his head slightly and looking at Sol on the other side, Bucciarati asked with an unchanged expression.

"Thor."

In the driver's seat, Jane noticed something was wrong with the atmosphere between the two, and quickly shouted.

However, it was obvious that her persuasion had no effect.

Sol looked at Bucciarati in front of him and nodded without hesitation: "Yes, I think you are wasting your time. Maybe you can get off the car now."

"StickyFingers!"

Facing Sol's warning, Bucciarati just lowered his head, raised the corners of his mouth and whispered something.

The next moment, a gray and blue humanoid creature emerged from behind him, making a strange "Ali Ali Ali Ali!" sound, and suddenly attacked Thor in front of him.

"What?!"

Although he had lost his divine power and could not see the substitute emerging from behind Bucciarati, the keen sense given by years of fighting still allowed Thor to detect a hint of danger. Unfortunately, although he felt that the substitute was unusual, the narrow space in the car and the body of an ordinary person greatly restricted Thor's fighting instinct.

By the time he reacted, the substitute's attack had already reached his fist.

With a dull sound of hitting, Thor's arm hit by [Steel Chain Finger] suddenly changed.

A huge metal zipper appeared on his arm. Pulling the zipper, Bucciarati easily removed Sol's thick arm.

"What?!"

"ah!"

【Legendary 700 from Thor Odinson】

[From Jane Foster’s Legend 1000]

With a loud scream, Jane suddenly stepped on the brakes under her feet.

Fortunately, the car was traveling on an uninhabited desert road with no village in front or back, so although Jane's brakes were applied suddenly, it did not cause any accident.

After pressing the brakes, Jane looked at Saul's empty arm in panic, and shouted in panic: "Saul, you are the arm, hospital, we will go to the hospital right away!"

In contrast to the panicked Jane, Saul, the person involved, was in a calmer mood. He touched his amputated arm, his eyes still focused on Bucciarati in the back seat, and spoke in a low voice to the panicked people beside him. The troubled Jane comforted her: "Jane, calm down. Things are not what you think. My arm is not broken yet."

Yes, although it looked scary, Thor had a feeling that his arm was not really cut off.

"Yeah." After hearing what Sol said, Jane, who was originally panicked, finally calmed down a little. She looked at the position of Sol's broken arm and began to find something unusual. If Sol's arm was really If it had been cut off, the wound would have been bleeding profusely by now. However, Jane looked at the place where Thor's arm was broken. Not to mention the blood, she couldn't even see the wound. Instead, there was a strange circle of chain teeth on the broken arm.

"how so?!"

[From The Legend of Jane Foster 320]

As the initial panic passed, the expression on Jane's face immediately changed to one of surprise.

"Perhaps we should ask the person who did it."

Facing Jane's exclamation, Sol stared at the arm in Bucciarati's hand and replied.

The weird ability displayed by Bucciarati made even Thor, who had experienced many battles, feel trouble, not to mention that he was only an ordinary person at this moment.

"I don't know if I can hold Thor's hammer if I just replace it with Thor's arm?"

In an antique shop in New York, Li Ran looked at the thick severed arm in front of him through Bucciarati, and suddenly thought of it.

However, he quickly rejected this idea. The way of picking up Mjolnir was obviously not just relying on the arm to distinguish it, but perhaps more related to the divine power of Asgard and even Thor. , which means that even if Li Ran replaces his arm, he may not be able to pick up Thor's hammer with this arm.

What's more, looking at the thick and hairy severed arm in his hand, Li Ran didn't have much thought about putting it on himself.

"Next, you have two choices."

In the back seat, Bucciarati fiddled with Thor's broken arm in his hand, first making him a classic oh yeah gesture, and then changing it into Spider-Man's iconic six plus one gesture, facing the driver. The two people sitting in front of you said: "Either, let the car continue driving in the same direction as before towards the destination, or else, let me remove more parts of your body."

Looking closely at the broken arm in Bucciarati's hand, Sol was silent for a while, and then he said to Jane beside him: "Jane, as he said, let's keep driving."

"But." His eyes glanced at Sol and Bucciarati, and the expression on Jane's face was a little hesitant.

"We have no choice."

If he were still Thor who had mastered the power of Thor at this moment, he might not be worried about the situation in front of him. It's a pity that now he is just an ordinary person who has lost his divine power, and there is Jane by his side.

"All right."

Hearing Sol's answer, Jane had to nod in agreement. She turned her head and glanced at the broken arm in Bucciarati's hand. With a look of fear in her eyes, she restarted the car and drove in the direction of the crater. However, compared to the previous situation, the atmosphere in the car has obviously changed greatly.

"Although I don't know how you used to remove my arm, but can you stop using my arm to make some weird gestures." Although he was worried about Bucciarati's ability to remove his arm, but Seeing his arms constantly moving in the opponent's hands, Sol couldn't help but say something.

"You mean this?"

Controlling the severed arm in his hand and folding up the remaining fingers to reveal only one middle finger, Bucciarati replied expressionlessly.

Bucciarati's gesture was extremely provocative, but he ignored that the Thor in front of him was not a normal earthling.

"Jane, what does this mean?"

Looking at the back seat, Bucciarati raised his middle finger with his broken arm, and Sol asked Jane in the driver's seat with a confused look.

Silently watching the conversation between Sol and Bucciarati, in order to avoid more conflicts, Jane twitched the corners of her mouth, a very forced smile appeared on her face that was pale due to the previous fright, and explained.

"It means blessing."

"Yeah."

Although he didn’t understand why Bucciarati would send him a blessing at this time, since it was a blessing, Sol still nodded and accepted it. By the way, he nodded to Bucciarati in the back seat and returned the greeting. :"Thanks."

Li Ran: "..."

…

Meteor crater, in a temporary experimental base.

Agent Phil stood in the hole where Mjolnir disappeared, with a silent expression.

"How about it? Did you find any clues about the previous intruder?"

Arriving next to Agent Phil, Hawkeye asked.

Shaking his head, Agent Phil retracted his gaze with a helpless expression: "No, we have tried our best to search for the intruder's information, but we have never been able to lock the identity of the other party." In the crater of the meteorite. items have been missing for more than three days.

The entire base was under the strict protection of S.H.I.E.L.D., but problems like this still occurred. As the mission leader, Agent Phil, although the situation at the time was still clearly beyond his control, he was still concerned about the occurrence of such a problem. As a result, I felt very guilty.

"Perhaps there is something wrong with our direction."

The abilities displayed by Loki were too conspicuous, and his appearance when he appeared at the base was so undisguised that SHIELD, including Agent Phil, invariably ignored the identity of the other intruder.

"Maybe the guy who took the things away is the key point." After thinking for a while, Hawkeye put forward his own opinion.

"Could he be the owner of the items in the crater?" Agent Phil raised his conjecture with a frown.

"It's not like that." Shaking his head, Hawkeye replied: "I saw the previous conversation between him and the guy who made the frost. It was obvious that he came with a purpose. And according to the testimony provided by the researchers at the base near the crater at that time, The guy pretending to be a researcher seemed to have mentioned the word "phantom thief"..."

"Phantom Thief?"

After hearing the clues provided by Hawkeye, Agent Phil's expression changed a little.

"Are you sure the other person is referring to the word "phantom thief"?

"I have asked all the researchers who were in the crater at the time, and more than half of them said they heard this sentence." The situation in the entire crater was chaotic at that time, especially the huge lightning power erupted by Thor's hammer. , although it did not cause too serious harm to the researchers around at the time, it affected their physical condition to some extent, and it took several days of adjustment to recover.

This is why Hawkeye waited until now to get clues about the Phantom Thief that Li Ran deliberately left behind.

"If the testimony is correct, maybe we have found a good breakthrough."

Taking the clue from Hawkeye, Agent Phil's eyes flashed and he murmured back.

…

Asgard, Asgard, where Odin sleeps.

"He has been sleeping for a long time. I am a little worried..."

The mother of the gods, Frigga looked at the sleeping Odin with worry on her face.

"How long will you continue to sleep?"

On the side, Loki looked at the sleeping Odin and asked silently.

Shaking her head, Frigga stroked Odin's face and replied: "I don't know, the situation is a little different this time. We are unprepared."

Loki: "Why did he lie to me?"

Frigga: "He kept the truth from you so that you would never think of yourself as an outsider. You are our child, Loki, and I am your family. Your father will come back to us, we Don’t give up hope, your brother will come back too.”

Hearing Frigga's words, Loki's expression changed obviously: "Is there still a chance for Thor to come back?"

Frigga: "Your father did everything for a reason."

After hearing Frigga's answer, Loki silently retracted his leaning body, and the expression on his face remained silent.

However, the pupils deep in the eyes shrank involuntarily.

He had always suspected that Odin had left a back-up plan for Thor's expulsion, and now Frigga's words only confirmed this for him. 8)
