Chapter: 127

When Steve finally landed on the ground and caught up with Tony, he was already engaged in a fight with Thor.

Tony, using the reactive speed from the Accel World and the energy barrier formed by the repulsor beneath him, held his ground and remained unbeatable.

On the other hand, Mjolnir in Thor's hand lived up to its reputation. Faced with Tony's relentless barrage of repulsor attacks, Thor employed various tricks to counter them with a single mighty hammer strike.

The battle between the two was intense and both launched their offensives, yet neither could overcome the other.

Thor's hot temper was further provoked by Tony's slippery evasions and unscrupulous defenses, causing him to swing his hammer with even greater force.

Seeing the escalating confrontation between the two, Steve made a decisive decision and decided to intervene to stop them.

Whoosh! In a flash of thought, Steve's two magnetic levitation discs under his feet spun rapidly, providing him with ample propulsion.

In the blink of an eye, Steve had already appeared between the two. "Hey! You two have had enough!"

Steve blocked their attacks with his vibrating shield and shouted loudly, "What is your purpose for coming to Earth?" He looked at Thor and questioned sternly.

"I came to stop Loki's plot," Thor, still filled with fire from his fight with Tony, replied excitedly.

"Then prove it with your actions and drop your hammer!" Steve suggested.

However, Tony, who hadn't yet determined the outcome of his battle with Thor, didn't want it to end so easily. "That's a bad idea. He loves his hammer too much..."

Bang! Before Tony could finish his sentence, Thor swung his hammer without hesitation.

Caught off guard, Tony was forced back a few steps by Thor's sudden attack, but thanks to the automatic defense of his repulsors, he remained unharmed.

"Do you want me to drop my hammer?" Thor, having driven Tony away, looked at Steve with excitement. He was on the verge of anger and uncontrollably launched a full-force attack against Steve.

Clang! Boom!

Reacting quickly, Steve used his vibrating shield to block Thor's attack. At the same time, the shield's properties came into play, reflecting back all the lightning energy and magic contained in Thor's attack, flipping him over.

Before Thor could even get up, Steve swiftly moved and used a strong hold to restrain him.

"Have you had enough now?"

The three of them had gotten to know each other through the fight. After Thor's previous strike, he had vented his emotions, and now he had calmed down. He patted the ground with his hand, signaling for a truce.

Seeing this situation, Tony and Steve exchanged a glance and decided to back down.

...

When Natasha saw the three of them safely bringing Loki back to the aircraft, she breathed a sigh of relief.

From then on, there were no more waves along the way, and Loki was safely transported back to the S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier without any major incidents.

Under the guard of a dozen fully armed S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, Loki was placed in a specially designed cell, developed by Mark for S.H.I.E.L.D.

"Let me make it clear. This cell is surrounded by high-intensity energy barriers from all sides, ensuring its integrity even under a nuclear attack.

And if you attempt to escape—"

Fury, who had come to interrogate Loki, approached the control panel and pressed a button, causing airflows to surge beneath the cell.

An opening appeared, just large enough for the entire cell to pass through, establishing a connection between the inside and outside.

"Even if you just touch the energy barrier lightly, like a dragonfly skimming the surface of water, you will plummet nine kilometers from the sky along with this valuable cage. Do you understand?"

As they watched the mechanism activate, Loki, without a trace of fear, burst into laughter. "This cage is not bad, but I guess it wasn't made for me, was it?"

"It was built for something more powerful than you."

"I've heard rumors. How desperate must you be to recruit a monster as your soldier?"

...

"Don't be angry, Doctor Banner. He's trying to sow discord."

Inside the control room, the interrogation footage of Loki was broadcasted live in front of everyone through surveillance cameras.

Concerned that Dr. Banner might be swayed by Loki's cunning schemes, Mark spoke up to remind him.

"Don't worry, when it comes to controlling my temper, I think I'm the best." Banner shrugged, indicating that he wasn't concerned.

"Judging by his behavior, Loki must have some hidden agenda. Thor, what is he planning?" Steve asked Thor, hoping to get some useful information from the person who knows Loki best.

"He has a massive army of Chitauri, and nobody knows how he got them. Loki intends to lead this army to invade earth.

They will help him conquer Earth, and as an exchange, he will hand over the Tesseract."

"That's why he kidnapped Dr. Erik Selvig. He needs him to use the Tesseract to create a stable portal." Mark offered his opinion.

"But why would Loki willingly surrender himself? He can't command his army here." Steve still had doubts about Loki's surrender.

"Perhaps he doesn't need to command his army—" Mark looked at Captain America and said, "Ever since Loki was brought aboard the Helicarrier, his facial expressions have conveyed only one message: joy.

What could make such an ambitious person so delighted?

He has achieved his goal, which means our headquarters was his objective from the beginning.

As long as he can wreak havoc here and defeat all of us.

Even without direct command, his army can still achieve victory in a major battle."

"But he's already locked up in the supercell you designed. What ability does he have to wreak havoc?" Banner raised an objection.

"Of course, he does. Through his words and actions, he has been intentionally or unintentionally communicating with you. Haven't you noticed, Dr. Banner? The big guy inside you is his trump card for turning the tables—"
