Chapitre 282: The Most Dangerous Loki

In the video, the camera pans to the Void, and a disoriented Loki awakens, surrounded by desolation, looking bewildered.

He soon spots other Lokis and asks, "Where is this? Who are you?"

The older Loki responds, "This is the Void, that's Alioth. We're its lunch. Stop dawdling and run!"

As they talk, a large cloud of black smoke appears in the distance, and within the mist, one can vaguely see a massive monstrous head roaring.

Loki, the Time Variant, harbours many questions. He follows these peculiar folks but eventually loses control and exclaims, "Could someone please explain what's going on here?! For the past few days, or maybe months? Since the New York incident, I don't even know how long it's been. All I know is I got pruned and woke up here, And I don't even know what I am running from or where I should be running to. And I need to go back!"

He can't help but shout, appearing emotionally unstable. Kid Loki notices and materializes a short sword, holding it to Loki's neck, "Stop yelling, you'll attract Alioth!"

"You mean that monster in the sky?"

The kid helps him up and casually says, "This is the trash heap. Everything pruned gets dumped here, and Alioth ensures that nothing comes back."

Boastful Loki adds, "Alioth is a living storm, devouring matter and energy, Time Variance Authority throws all the realities from branched timelines here, and then this monster comes to eradicate them!"

Old Loki gives an analogy, "We're like a fish in a shark tank, and Alioth is the shark."

Short-snout alligator Loki has an objection, asking why it's not a crocodile tank.

Old Loki says in resignation, "There's no such thing as a crocodile tank; I was just using an analogy."

He then says to Time criminal Loki, "He's just as sensitive as the rest of us."

Time criminal Loki points at the short-snout alligator, "Wait, is this thing Loki too?"

Old Loki nods matter-of-factly, "Of course."

Time criminal Loki takes a deep breath, "Alright, nothing seems too surprising anymore. But why are there so many of you?"

Old Loki chuckles, "Because Loki always finds a way to survive. That's our speciality."

In eternal space

Tony Stark laughs, "Ha, I bet he didn't see himself getting strangled by Thanos in his future, I mean old Loki."

Loki shrugs, "Perhaps in his timeline, there's no Thanos at all? Don't forget, he's the longest-living Loki."

Nick Fury notices a small detail, "Among these three Lokis, the kid Loki seems to be the leader?"

Scott Lang says, "That is indeed strange. The older Loki should be the leader, right?"

In the video, Time criminal Loki also realizes this and curiously asks Old Loki, "Why are you following this kid's orders?"

Old Loki turns and says, "You'd better respect this child; this is his kingdom."

Time criminal Loki stops in his tracks while observing Kid Loki, "What's your Nexus Event, Your Majesty?"

Kid Loki, with a serious face, says, "I killed Thor!"

Tony Stark raises his hands, "Wow, this is quite the kid. Not cute at all, of course. If the question is about which Loki is the most dangerous, it might just be him!"

They have all seen the future of the Ragnarok in Asgard, and the futures of Thor and Loki. Despite Loki's countless pranks and tricks on his dear brother Thor, he still holds affection for him.

In the end, Loki ambushes Thanos, sacrificing himself to save Thor, trading his life for his brother's.

The God of Mischief is not a good person, but he has his limits and emotions. In the video, this Kid Loki has clearly abandoned those limits. Despite being physically small and weak, he is incredibly dangerous on a mental and spiritual level.

Scott Lang is a bit puzzled, "Nexus Event, that's like what he did wrong, right? Like the regular Loki's Nexus Event was stealing the Tesseract, right?"

Hank Pym nods, "Exactly."

Loki, at this moment, is just like the Loki in the video, seemingly surprised but trying to act nonchalant, "Maybe I went too far accidentally and killed Thor. It's no big deal."

In the video, these strange Lokis take refuge in an underground bunker. Now they understand why Old Loki said this is Kid Loki's kingdom.

Inside the bunker, there's a small throne, and the decor is quite child-friendly. Kid Loki confidently takes a seat on the throne, looking like a true king.

Boastful Loki proudly introduces his Nexus Event, "After I defeated Iron Man and Captain America, I got rewarded. I have all six Infinity Stones!"

Tony Stark chuckles, "Ha if the question is about which Loki can brag the most, he's the answer."

Even the short-snout alligator Loki can't stand it and roars, accusing boastful Loki of being a liar.

Boastful Loki retaliates, "At least my Nexus Event wasn't eating the neighbour's cat!"

Clearly, this is Short-Snout Loki's Nexus Event, and by saying this he provoked the alligator Loki, the alligator Loki leap out of the pool, biting boastful Loki's arm.

After some commotion, the king-like Kid Loki turns to Old Loki and says, "Let's hear your story."

Old Loki shrugs, "Mine? No one would want to hear it."

Time criminal Loki chimes in, "Actually, I'd like to know. Because we should be dead, right? Thanos ultimately killed us!"

At this point, Tony Stark slaps his forehead, "Oh, right, we forgot about that!"

Nick Fury also catches on, furrowing his brow, "In the sacred timeline's plan for Loki, he always ends up dying at the hands of Thanos. From that perspective, the answer to this question is quite obvious, it's..."

As they analyze this question, they apply the same logic they used for previous answers, believing that the most unreasonable option is the correct one.

Scott Lang, feeling a bit cheated, mutters, "Yeah if you hadn't led us astray, I would have gotten this question right!"
