At that moment, as Thor mentioned sensing divine power, Tony and Steve exchanged a glance.

"He's a god?" Steve asked in surprise.

Thor hesitated before nodding.

"It seems... it's the divine power of Asgard..."

He spoke with uncertainty.

Due to the mixture of light and thunder powers, Syd's aura had become unfamiliar to Thor, making it difficult for him to recognize something he had once sensed. Although, deep down, it did feel somewhat familiar.

Thor was puzzled.

How could Earth repeatedly have people with divine power?

Who exactly is this person...

As Thor voiced his confusion, Tony and Steve became convinced that the mysterious figure nearby was likely another Asgardian, another god...

"So what kind of god is he?"

"Do you all like to hang out on Earth?"

When Tony first heard that this mysterious figure was a god, he didn't think much of it. After all, the so-called gods he'd encountered weren't all that impressive.

But then, he realized something was off.

This guy's power seemed different. Are Asgardian gods supposed to be this strong? Isn't this guy a bit too powerful?

Catching the laser from the Mark armor with his hand—what kind of power is that? Tony thought in hesitation.

Steve also noticed something was off, pondering similar questions.

Despite witnessing the formidable strength of the mysterious figure, they still didn't believe he could be overwhelmingly powerful, partly because of Thor and Loki.

As their minds raced and Thor pondered, while Loki watched in suspicion, Syd made his move.

With a divine clarity, he raised Mjolnir.

The next second, boom, boom, boom! Countless bolts of lightning descended from the clouds, densely packed and impossible to count.

The white light was blinding.

Crackling, the lightning struck Mjolnir all at once.

It was as if a sea of lightning had descended...

The sheer magnitude of it was terrifying to behold.

Boom! Syd swung the hammer, and the lightning surged toward Tony and the others, their eyes wide with shock.

In an instant, a radius of 20 to 30 meters of forest was engulfed in a sea of lightning.

Tony screamed, instinctively trying to evade, but it was too late.

In no time, his armored figure was covered in bolts of lightning.

The surface of the Mark armor was scorched with marks.

At the same time, the energy surge from the lightning caused the Mark armor's power levels to spike.

Energy at 500%...

Energy at 600%...

Energy at 700%...

At first, Tony could still manage a grin, but as the energy levels rose, his smile faded, realizing that if the energy kept increasing, the Mark armor would eventually overload, and then...

Tony was relatively fortunate, at least having the Mark armor to shield him from the lightning. Steve, on the other hand, was in a much worse state, already paralyzed and unable to rise from the ground.

In the distance.

Loki, hiding in the shadows, was filled with dread as he watched the sea of lightning descend.

As for Thor, he was utterly stunned.

Although he was also within the sea of lightning, his physique prevented him from suffering serious injuries, leaving him merely disheveled on the outside.

At that moment, only one thought remained in his mind. "Am I the God of Thunder, or is he?"

"How is Mjolnir so much more powerful in his hands than in mine?"

He couldn't believe it.

If he had this kind of power, those two Midgardians would have been dealt with long ago. Who is this mysterious figure, and how does he possess such power...

Tony attempted to flee the area but was promptly struck down by Mjolnir, landing hard on the ground, unable to get up.

As the storm subsided, the 20 to 30-meter radius was left charred, with some trees and leaves catching fire.

Steve was crouched on the ground, his body stiff and his consciousness fading. Tony's Mark armor had been scorched to the point of discoloration.

Had the storm lasted any longer, both of them might have been in grave danger.

Looking at the mysterious figure in black standing on the tree, the group was left bewildered and deeply shaken.

"Hey, you okay?" Tony called out to Steve with difficulty.

"Cough, still hanging on..." Steve replied weakly.

After glancing at Steve to ensure he wasn't about to keel over, Tony's gaze returned to the mysterious figure in black on the tree.

He realized that it was likely this figure who had held back, or else he and Steve would have been done for.

Tony found it hard to believe that this suspected Asgardian god had such overwhelming power.

In just a few moments, both of them had been rendered incapable of fighting?!

At that moment, the mysterious figure slowly floated into the air, quietly observing them.

Tony and the others were in disbelief.

"Are you sure this guy is a god, just like you?" Tony couldn't help but ask Thor.

Gazing at the floating figure, both Tony and Steve felt an immense pressure.

Compared to Thor and Loki, this guy seemed far more like a true god.

Not only was he mysterious, but he also possessed power that was beyond human comprehension.

If Thor had displayed such power from the start, Tony wouldn't have made those sarcastic remarks about him being an actor.

Perhaps this was what a true Asgardian god should be?

Tony thought hesitantly.

Thor understood what Tony meant, and his face flushed with embarrassment, unsure of how to respond.

Then, something caught his attention.

Although Syd was floating, he wasn't using flight but rather chaos magic, causing his hands to emit a faint red glow.

In an instant, Thor's mind flashed with memories.

In a town, he and a mysterious figure dressed in white, who possessed divine power, fought together against the Destroyer armor sent by Loki...

"Brother, is that you?"

Tony and Steve looked at Thor in confusion as he asked in shock.

Hmm? Syd, who had been about to speak, paused, turning his gaze to Thor.

Seeing Thor's expression, Syd quickly realized what had happened.

He figured it out...

Syd shook his head, losing interest in continuing the ruse.

He casually flicked Mjolnir with his right hand.

Boom!
