Chapter 170: Me! Black Dwarf, Brain Has a Bone

In midair, a familiar dark blue aura suddenly appeared, and the fury in Black Dwarf's eyes was quickly replaced by panic. He tried to retreat, but he couldn't move even a fraction while falling and watched helplessly as a hand seized his axe.

Thanos, who was about to pursue, was suddenly overwhelmed and slammed down by a massive force...

"Are you okay?"

Thor clapped his hands and glanced at Carol.

"It's fine; it's just that the energy consumption is a bit high."

Carol looked at Thanos, who was being pinned down by Black Dwarf, with lingering anxiety. Although it seemed like she was handling things well, her energy was almost depleted. If the fight continued, she would be forced to flee.

And Thanos, who looked battered and swollen, was growing increasingly furious. He had torn off his armor and was now fighting shirtless.

"It's okay, I'll recharge you."

Thor placed his hand on her head, and a strong electric current surged from the sky, transforming her shoulder-length blond hair into an afro...

"*"

Carol, now fully rejuvenated, raised her hands and was pleasantly surprised to find her energy restored to its maximum.

"It turns out your electricity can be used like this!"

She glanced behind Thor and asked, "Who is this woman? Is she skilled in combat?"

Thor turned back with a serious expression. When he activated the Tesseract earlier, Lorelei had suddenly appeared in his arms. "I'm here on business. What are you doing here?"

Lorelei gritted her teeth and said, "You don't have your hammer. What if something happens?"

Thor replied sharply, "Speak normally!"

This woman might have some admiration for him, but it certainly wasn't to the extent of being willing to risk everything for him.

A widow with deep feelings might act differently.

"Well, rather than dying, I'd rather not be sent back to the dark dungeon and remain silent for the rest of my life. My trust in you is rooted in your presence. Moreover, you are indeed a formidable warrior who makes my heart race."

Lorelei's words were clear, and Thor understood.

Asgard had initially refused to let Lorelei go not because of her actions but due to her unique abilities. In a way, Thor's acceptance of her was a form of guarantee, allowing her to be released.

And if something happened to Thor, Asgard might imprison her again, a significant threat.

If no one else would inform her, Sif would be happy to do it!

Thor shook his head, "You're overthinking. I don't intend to die here. But staying here is dangerous for you. Go back and wait for me."

As he spoke, he opened a portal.

Whether it was Thanos or the Black Order, they were alien creatures with different sensibilities from humans and were naturally immune to Lorelei's charms. Without her best control method, Lorelei's combat abilities would be less effective than Sif's...

Lorelei clenched her teeth, glanced at Thanos and the others confronting her, and, feeling frustrated, turned and entered the portal.

Perhaps unwilling, she turned her head and activated her ability a second before disappearing into the space portal.

"Fight for your queen!"

To Thanos, who firmly believed that "a real man should only engage with ideals," Lorelei's spiritual charm was like a straight man watching a flirtatious woman—it elicited only a cold response.

As expected, Corvus's reaction to the Asgardian was unmoved.

"Boom—"

A massive battle axe swept through, catching Corvus Glaive off guard and sending him flying hundreds of meters away.

"Aww!!!"

Black Dwarf, akin to a raging bear, leaped at Thanos. After being punched away, he quickly recovered, howling and charging again.

"Bastard! Do you intend to betray our lord?!"

Ebony Maw shouted in anger, pointing and unleashing a barrage of invisible psychokinetic forces that crashed down several large boulders.

Black Dwarf, unafraid, withstood the stones with his immense strength and hurled his chain-blade battle axe toward Ebony Maw. Proxima Midnight, who arrived, blocked it with her spear.

On the other side, Corvus Glaive, fueled by rage, joined forces with Proxima Midnight to subdue Black Dwarf.

Under normal circumstances, Black Dwarf was the weakest among them, but now he fought with a berserk ferocity, determined to go down fighting.

He continued to roar intermittently, "For Her Majesty the Queen!"

Thanos' face darkened further.

Thor and Carol exchanged glances.

Damn, Black Dwarf, who Thor thought was least likely to be influenced, was actually charmed?

Something is definitely wrong!
