[Also a few more reviews to get to 80!! If we reached there will be an extra chapter!]

As they watched the red light block the lasers, Tony Stark and the others were both shocked and full of speculation.

Could it be that the Demon God behind these sorcerers had intervened?

Otherwise, why would this mysterious red light suddenly appear and shield them from the laser blasts?

While they were lost in terrifying thoughts, the sudden sound of footsteps broke the silence.

Hearing the unexpected footsteps, both Kaecilius and his sorcerers, as well as Loki, Thor, and the others, turned their gazes toward the source.

Accompanied by the rhythmic steps, a figure slowly approached.

The figure was dressed in a strange black outfit—completely pitch black, absorbing any light like a black hole, making it impossible to discern any details of the clothing, resembling the darkness of the night sky.

Black Widow, Hawkeye, Kaecilius, the Chitauri commander, and the others stared in confusion and curiosity.

As for Tony Stark and Thor, they immediately recognized the figure.

Not only them, but even Nick Fury and Hill, who were monitoring the New York battlefield from the helicarrier, instantly analyzed and identified the figure.

"Is it that mysterious Asgardian?"

"Another son of Odin, the King of Asgard?"

"What is his objective, and why is he here?"

Nick Fury furrowed his brows tightly.

Everything seemed to be going so well; hopefully, no unexpected variables would arise! Fury silently prayed in his heart.

Back on the battlefield in New York.

"It's that mysterious guy!" Tony Stark muttered.

Watching the black figure walking leisurely in the distance, Natasha turned and asked in surprise, "You know him?"

"Did you forget? A while ago, I told you all about a mysterious man in black that I encountered. That's him!"

"It's him?" Natasha's face showed astonishment.

"What are you talking about?" asked a confused Hawkeye, "Who is this guy?"

Tony glanced at him.

At the time, Hawkeye had been under Loki's control, so he hadn't been on the helicarrier to hear about this. It made sense that he didn't know.

Quickly, Tony explained, "It's a long story; I'll explain it later."

"You're saying he's..."

Pausing, Tony said gravely, "He might be another god from Asgard, Thor's brother."

Upon hearing this, Hawkeye's face filled with astonishment and disbelief.

Another Asgardian god? Thor's brother?

After the initial shock, a new wave of doubts arose.

What was this person's purpose here?

And...

Tony had the same thought.

Glancing at the red light still covering the group of sorcerers, he couldn't help but ask, "That red energy surrounding those sorcerers... is that your doing?"

With that question, everyone suddenly remembered the red light that had shielded the sorcerers from dozens of laser blasts.

Watching the red glow that still enveloped the sorcerers, a terrifying suspicion crept into Tony Stark's mind.

Back when he first encountered this mysterious man, he had seen the red glow emanating from his hands as he floated in the air, sparking a vague guess.

Now, seeing the red light deflecting countless lasers, his suspicion deepened.

Suddenly, Tony blurted out, "Are you the White-Clad Stranger, the White Knight?"

"An Omega-level mutant?!"

"What did you say, Stark?"

"White Knight?"

In an instant, all eyes were on the mysterious figure dressed in black.

The next second, their gazes shifted back to the red light surrounding the sorcerers.

Could it be...

Everyone knew that the White Knight's Omega-level power manifested as a red glow...

Their eyes widened in disbelief as they stared at the figure in black.

Looking at Tony Stark and the others, Syd calmly responded, "I told you, we'd meet again."

At that moment, Thor, listening to the conversation, was utterly confused. "Hey, what are you talking about?"

"What White Knight?"

"Wait, you're not talking about..."

As he spoke, Thor suddenly realized something, his face filled with shock as he looked at the mysterious man in black.

Could his possible brother actually be this so-called Omega mutant?

Thor's mind was reeling with confusion.

Of course, all of this was still just speculation. Without solid evidence, everything was mere guesswork.

Not far away.

Loki and the Chitauri commander had expressions that fluctuated between disbelief and astonishment.

"White Knight?"

"An Omega-level mutant?"

"The sentry robots were designed to deal with him?"

They were no strangers to the name White Knight.

Not long ago, a certain human woman had mentioned that name multiple times.

At first, when they heard her say that the sentry robots, built to handle two human beings, were meant to deal with their Chitauri army, they had laughed at the absurdity of it all.

However, after witnessing the power of the sentry robots, they were shocked to discover how formidable they truly were.

At that moment, they couldn't believe that such powerful machines could have been created by humans!

It was then that they began to take note of the term "Omega mutant," and the two names—Messiah and White Knight.

They even wondered what kind of beings these two mutants must be if they required such powerful sentry robots to subdue them. How terrifying could they be?

However, because of the woman's words, they scoffed at the notion.

Even now, they could still recall what she had said.

"Sentry robots are just sentry robots. Even if they can't handle Messiah and White Knight, these mutants would easily dispose of them, but against aliens like you, the robots are an easy match."

The sentry robots, which they had struggled to destroy with their mothership, were supposedly nothing more than playthings for the mutants?

It was laughable!

They didn't believe it for a second.

In their minds, the powerful sentry robots were more than capable of defeating the so-called Messiah and White Knight, perhaps even having already killed them!

Yet, according to that woman, these robots would be effortlessly dealt with?

Not only did they not believe it, but even the remaining Chitauri soldiers didn't accept it.

Even now, Loki himself, upon realizing that the mysterious figure might be the Omega mutant, refused to believe such exaggerated claims. It seemed too far-fetched to be true.
