[Question 5 begins. Please be prepared.]
[During the Battle of New York, Loki was captured shortly after arriving on Earth. Which of the following characters did not participate in the capture?]
[A. Iron Man, Tony Stark]
[B. Captain America, Steve Rogers]
[C. Thor, the God of Thunder]
[D. Black Widow, Natasha Romanoff]
[If you answer correctly, you will receive a zombie virus, which, when injected, allows you to transform into a zombie for 30 minutes each day (under the zombie form, various qualities such as strength, speed, and reflexes are multiplied by 2-10 times depending on individual constitution, and the body's defensive and healing abilities reach a terrifying level; basically, you won't die unless your head is blown off or you're dismembered). If you answer incorrectly, one year of your lifespan will be deducted.]
As this question was asked, everyone's gaze fell on Thor.
"Let's just answer this question casually. Loki is already dead, and the Battle of New York won't happen," Thor's expression turned sad again, as if he had returned from a blind date with 18 girls and was agonizing over which one to choose all night, only to find out the next morning that none of the girls liked him.
"Thor, I'm not saying that I don't believe you, but Loki has always been known as the God of Trickery and Deception. Deception is his specialty," Bruce Banner tilted his head and thought for a moment before speaking, "Maybe he tricked you and didn't really die."
"Thor, I think Dr. Banner has a point," Steve Rogers, standing beside Bruce Banner, also spoke up, "Loki has the ability to deceive you, and he has the motive to deceive you. He sought to seize the throne, committed treason, and most importantly, he tried to kill you!"
"That's right, Thor. You are the prince of Asgard, the rightful heir to the throne," Bruce Banner continued where Steve Rogers left off, "If Loki only wanted to seize the throne, maybe he could have a way out, but by attempting to kill you, he would have no place in Asgard. I don't know what the laws of Asgard are like, but if it is a mature legal system, such a grave crime should be punishable by death. So Loki faking his death is highly likely."
"And looking at your innocent face, it's written all over your forehead that you're easy to deceive. If I were a trickster, I would consider it a loss if I didn't deceive you!" Tony Stark couldn't help but start with his usual sarcastic remarks.
"Everyone, Loki and I were on the Rainbow Bridge during the battle. I broke the Rainbow Bridge, and he fell into the depths of space. If it weren't for my father arriving in time to catch me, I would have fallen into the abyss as well," Thor shook his head, "Loki is truly dead, it's not a trick or deception."
"Was your father, Odin, there before Loki's death?" Tony Stark asked.
"Yes, my father Odin was also there, and he was devastated by Loki's death," Thor recalled the look in Loki's eyes before he died, and couldn't help but feel sad and heartbroken.
"If Odin was there..." Steve Rogers nodded, "Then Loki's death should be real. Even though I haven't seen Odin, since he is the father of both you and Loki, his power and insight must be greater than both of you. Loki shouldn't be able to deceive him."
"No, Captain, even if Loki can't deceive Odin, it only proves that he fell into the abyss is a fact," Tony Stark expressed a different opinion, "Seeing Loki's death with my own eyes is a different matter."
"Stark, Loki can't survive in space," Thor said, "He fell directly into the abyss, there's no doubt he died. I swear on my hammer."
"You know more about the universe than we do, and you know Loki better than we do. Since you're so sure..." At this moment, Tony Stark's mind actually flashed the Thor Law, but seeing Thor's appearance, he changed his words, "Then let's assume he has passed away until new evidence proves otherwise."
"We still need to answer the question. Let's analyze it," Thor shook his head, his golden hair flying, as if trying to shake off the image of Loki from his mind.
"This question is hard to analyze," Tony Stark frowned, "All the options are Avengers, and all of them participated in the big battle with Loki. It seems that each of them could have been involved in capturing Loki. But if I had to choose one who didn't go, I would choose Natasha Romanoff. Although she is skilled, she's just a normal person, not someone who can contend with a god like Loki."
Tony Stark's reasoning was not wrong at all. Among the four options, Tony Stark had his Iron Man suit and was capable of anything; Steve Rogers was a super soldier, able to jump off 20 floors without a scratch; and Thor himself was a genuine god, his combat power could only be described as terrifying.
Compared to these people, Natasha Romanoff was quite ordinary.
"From the perspective of combat power, Stark's reasoning makes sense. However, I think we can look at it from another angle," Steve Rogers glanced at Thor and said slowly, "Among the four options, the other three have no connection to Loki, so they can treat Loki rationally and objectively. But Thor, Thor is Loki's brother, he has deep emotions for Loki, and when it comes to Loki, he might be emotionally biased and let his emotions influence his judgment..."
"No, Captain," Thor said, "I am very rational. No matter what I face, my rationality outweighs my emotions. Even when facing Loki, I can view and handle it without any personal feelings, in a fair and objective manner."
As soon as he said this, everyone in the answering space thought to themselves, "Holy shit," even Steve Rogers couldn't help but roll his eyes.
Big brother, you can view Loki fairly and objectively? How did you even say that with a straight face!
Are gods exempt from being slapped in the face?
Or does the term "Asgard" have a different meaning?
Your infatuation with your younger brother is so obvious that it's as clear as day. You're practically obsessed with him, to the point where you wish he were a woman so you could marry him and shower him with love for a lifetime.
You're saying you can treat Loki fairly and objectively?
This is the biggest joke in the Nine Realms!
"From the question that someone made the Avengers unite, we can see that at that time, Loki had already been captured. But at that time, the Avengers were still not united, which means that before Loki was captured, the Avengers were not united," Steve Rogers directly ignored Thor's ridiculously absurd words and continued with his own analysis, "Considering Thor's consistent attitude towards Loki, even if he knew that Loki was up to something, he might not have gone to capture him. And at that time, the Avengers were not united, so the chances of Thor becoming rational in dealing with Loki under everyone's persuasion were also very small."
"Hearing Captain's words, there really
is a good chance that Thor didn't go after Loki," Bruce Banner agreed with Steve Rogers' analysis.
