Sif glanced at her companions and raised a question.
What she really wanted to ask was why they hadn't brought an army.
"Just us," Thor said, offering no further explanation, and turned to walk into the vortex of swirling energy nearby.
This left Sif and the Warriors Three bewildered.
Loki began walking, turned his head towards Sif, and said softly, "Bringing an army would change the meaning, Sif."
Hearing Loki's words, Sif and the Warriors Three began to ponder.
...
The Arctic Circle, located near Greenland, has seen a sudden increase in abnormal phenomena, drawing significant attention.
The sky was filled with rolling black clouds, churning like ocean waves, threatening to engulf everything beneath them.
This was not just a visual spectacle; an oppressive and suffocating atmosphere accompanied it.
Greenland, the world's largest island, is a Danish territory situated between the Arctic and Atlantic Oceans, northeast of North America.
It is separated from the Canadian Arctic Archipelago by the Baffin Bay and the Davis Strait, and faces the Greenland Sea and the Denmark Strait to the east, with views of Europe's Svalbard Islands and Iceland. Most of the island lies within the Arctic Circle, characterized by harsh climates and frequent snowstorms, with year-round temperatures generally below 0°C. The island covers 2.1756 million square kilometers.
The population, mainly composed of Inuit with a minority of Danes, is just over fifty thousand, yet they were about to face a great catastrophe.
People in the island's various small towns were expecting a peaceful day when the sudden terrifying weather shocked everyone. They watched in astonishment as the rolling black clouds in the sky gradually spread, extending further and further.
In a trance, they seemed to hear sounds that should not come from this world, like the roars of demons.
Hearing these sounds, many residents felt their bodies uncontrollably tense, and their heads began to ache.
Many even took out their phones to film the phenomenon and posted it on social media.
Despite Greenland's small population, its unique geographical location and environment attract many tourists annually. Additionally, Greenland boasts one of the world's leading telecommunications networks, interconnected with European and North American radar defense systems.
Hence, the network coverage here is excellent.
Residents found the phenomenon eerie, but no one took it too seriously, at most reporting it to the authorities.
However, disaster struck soon.
Horrifying roars and growls echoed, and the entire population of Greenland suddenly saw a distant scene where the sky seemed stained with blood, with crimson waves mingling with a dark purple tempest, like a hellish lightning storm. Terrifying phenomena appeared one by one.
In an instant, a dreadful darkness enveloped Greenland and its surrounding areas, replacing light with darkness.
The ocean surged violently, as if heralding the end of the world.
Panic ensued as people began to notice in the distance, within the blood-red, lightning-storm-covered area, a swarm of tall, evil, hellish monsters, densely packed like locusts.
"Oh my God, what is that? Are those demons?"
"Run! Run!"
"Hide, there are monsters."
"Run, if we don't, we'll die."
People screamed in terror and began to flee, some hiding at home, others attempting to escape by boat or car.
The pervasive fear and panic seemed like fresh prey to the demons, whose blood-red eyes gleamed with greed as they spread their wings and descended upon the humans on the island.
To the demons, humans were the most delicious food, whether flesh or soul.
In an instant, it was like wolves among sheep.
Screams and cries filled the air.
The occurrence of such phenomena and the presence of social media led to terrified residents who hadn't yet been attacked to continuously make phone calls, but the lines were jammed due to the volume of calls. They cautiously filmed the horrifying scenes outside their windows and uploaded them to social media, hoping to attract external attention and get assistance.
This instinctive call for help was their best option.
Within minutes, a flood of uploaded videos garnered significant attention on social media.
Upon opening these videos, although the angles varied, the content was universally shocking and terrifying.
Terrifying demons, never seen before, hovered greedily in the air, attacking those on the ground who hadn't managed to escape, accompanied by shrill screams and cries in the videos, along with the weak, tearful voices of the people filming.
...
"Please, I don't know what's happening. There are so many monsters. Please save us. I have a family."
"My God, I saw Sarah killed by a demon. It's terrifying. Please save us."
"The apocalypse is here. We're all going to die."
"So many monsters. Please, someone save my family. I have a wife and three children."
The languages spoken in these videos were mostly Greenlandic and Danish, with some in English or other languages from tourists.
All the voices trembled with fear, expressing the same sentiment.
A cry for help.
These videos quickly caused a stir online, spreading rapidly to North America, Europe, and beyond, allowing people worldwide to see them immediately.
With the rapid spread, various government agencies saw the videos and, under orders from top leaders, began swiftly verifying the authenticity of the content.
