Chapter 332 |
Josh left the brand-new training ground at Schönbrunn Palace feeling refreshed.
Lying inside the training ground was Loki, unsure whether he was dead or alive.
Josh was indeed a bit surprised that Loki had given up everything about Asgard.
Since he had already agreed to Carol’s request, he couldn’t go back on his word but that didn’t stop him from using the excuse of sparring to torment Loki.
Loki had no way to refuse and clearly, similar scenes would continue repeatedly in the future.
“Are you alright?” After a while, a voice sounded beside the completely limp Loki.
This made Loki a bit touched; he thought he would just lie here until he recovered.
Turning slightly, he saw Carol’s younger brother, Ben.
But looking at the smile on Ben’s face, Loki suddenly felt a bad premonition.
“Ah, then you better hurry. My father said you’re one of the top warriors in the universe, and I want to learn from you!” Ben said with a smile.
What the heck? I’m one of the top warriors in the universe? How come I didn’t know that?
“No, Ben, there must be some misunderstanding…” Loki hurried to explain.
But at this moment, Ben was no longer paying attention to him.
Loki silently wailed inside…Carol, come save me.
But at this time, Carol really couldn’t save him, because Margot was pulling Carol aside to have a heart-to-heart talk.
What Loki didn’t know was that, at this moment, his beloved brother Thor was actually in a situation even worse than his own.
After venting on Loki, Josh opened a portal.
When he appeared again, he was already in a village somewhere in Cuba.
In the center of the village was a platform, and on the platform hung a ragged, disheveled man.
If you didn’t know, almost no one would believe this was the once proud and spirited Thor of Asgard.
As for why Thor appeared here and in this state, the reason was simple—he had been exiled, just like in the Thor movies, only fifty years earlier.
By this time, it had been a week since Thor had recklessly come to Earth to provoke trouble.
Shortly after Odin forcibly brought Thor back to Asgard that day, he was exiled.
Josh knew this…of course, because after Thor was exiled, his hammer, just like in the movie, was thrown by Odin onto Earth, making a huge stir for someone like Josh.
Furthermore, when Odin later sent people to repair Schönbrunn Palace, he also asked Josh to keep an eye on Thor. But as long as Thor’s life was not in danger, let him suffer on Earth for a while. When he finally realizes how to be a proper king, his seal would naturally be lifted.
The only difference was the place where Thor fell—not New Mexico, but Cuba, which had just undergone a transformation less than a year ago.
At this time, Cuba’s transformation was just being completed. The American-supported military government had already fallen, but many remnants remained. Surrounding the country were American spies and a naval blockade, so the situation was very tense.
Under these circumstances, Thor fell into the jungle and wandered for two days before coming out. Undoubtedly, the locals captured him as a spy and subjected him to severe interrogation. He had been hanging there for five days.
When Josh arrived, he saw a local girl secretly feeding water to Thor.
Tsk...Don’t look down on this silly kid Thor, he really does have some luck with women; wherever he goes, he manages to get girls attached to him.
“Chief!” At this moment, the space beside Josh shook, and a mage appeared.
This was the person Josh had assigned from Ouroboros to follow and monitor Thor, working 24/7 in shifts.
Although the chance of Thor causing trouble on Earth was slim, the appearance had to be maintained.
Especially since Josh had just shaken down Asgard for some extra cash.
Also, recording Thor’s experience as a mortal firsthand was somewhat interesting...after all, Thor wouldn’t be able to detect it.
Even Heimdall might not notice…Josh had long known from Loki and Ancient One that magical means could easily confuse Heimdall’s sight.
“Hmm, how’s he doing?” Josh nodded slightly.
“This kid’s tough and resilient, very healthy. He’s been hanging and beaten for five days, looks a bit pitiful, but his actual physical condition is still good.” The mage immediately replied.
Josh nodded. After all, he was Asgardian royalty. Even if Odin sealed all his divine powers, his basic physique was no weaker than a super soldier’s.
In the movie, he was first knocked down by lightning and confined as a mental patient in a hospital simply because he had just lost his powers and wasn’t used to it yet.
But when he later broke into the S.H.I.E.L.D. camp, the regular agents couldn’t stop him at all. If he hadn’t lost his will to resist after realizing he couldn’t lift the hammer, even Barton might not have subdued him.
Now, Thor was hanging on a wooden frame for the same reason…just came out of the jungle and wasn’t adapted yet, got knocked out from behind, and then hung up with iron chains.
Josh looked at the pitifully hanging Thor.
Just as he was considering whether to add a little more trouble for him, he heard the distant roar of many vehicles.
Turning in mid-air, he saw a convoy guarded by troops heading toward the village.
On one jeep sat the current Cuban leader Castro, and beside him was his partner, the famous South American hero Che Guevara.
Josh was quite surprised to meet these two legendary figures here.
But why were they here? This was the southeasternmost part of Cuba, far from the northern capital Havana. Given their status, they shouldn’t be appearing in such a remote area.
It certainly wasn’t to come for Thor, that made no sense.
So Josh immediately spread his divine power around, quickly covering hundreds of kilometers of land and sea nearby, and soon got results.
In a bay area to the east, a “big fish” over a hundred meters long was quietly waiting underwater.
Josh looked closely again—it was a cutting-edge H-class strategic nuclear submarine from the Bear’s home (Russia)...
Ah, now it made sense why these two legendary people suddenly came here.
