"Enough talking, let's go!" The young Loki said impatiently to Loki, "Do whatever you want to do!"
Subsequently, several Lokis, including the alligator Loki lying on the ground, turned and left.
"Wait a minute." Loki was taken aback for a moment, then caught up with a few Lokis. He followed behind Cloak Loki and asked, "Why are you wearing horns? Are you taking orders from a little kid?"
"You better respect this child. This is his kingdom," Cloak Loki turned around and said.
"Alright." Loki put his hands on his waist and asked the young Loki, "What's your connection here, Your Highness?"
"I killed Thor," the young Loki turned around and said word by word.
"It's true that heroes emerge from the young." Seeing this, Stephen Strange couldn't help but say, "Even though this Loki is the youngest, he's done something that none of the other Lokis have done."
"Young?" Peter Quill questioned back, "Isn't that Loki just a child in appearance? Who knows how old he really is. Is he really a youth?"
"You can't measure it by human age," Stephen Strange said, "in terms of Loki's age, he's a youth. Haven't you seen that all the Lokis call him a child?"
"Someone actually succeeded among the Lokis?" Loki's lips curled up, and he smiled, "It looks like I need to visit the TVA. That way, I can ask that Loki how he managed to succeed."
"Is killing me the only thing on your mind?" Thor, looking somewhat injured, said from the side, "I thought that after we've come this far, I no longer need to worry about you."
"You think you don't need to worry about me? Are you looking down on me?" A mischievous smile reappeared on Loki's face, "I am Loki, the God of Mischief Loki. Anyone at any time should be wary of me. This is the minimum respect for the God of Mischief, this is..."
"Hey!" Peter Quill interrupted him from the side, "Just say what you want to say. Why are you smiling like that? Do you think you look handsome when you smile?"
"Isn't it handsome?" Loki smiled again, "Do you know how many girls this smile has charmed?"
"That's just your illusion. Actually, your smile is hideous." Thor struck back, "It's not you who's captivating them, it's me. Haven't you noticed that every time you think the girls are screaming for you, it's when I'm right beside you?"
In the video, Loki followed the young Loki to their "base."
This so-called base was actually an abandoned, dilapidated spacecraft. The few of them exchanged their experiences as Lokis within the ship, and they also acted out a scene of Lokis betraying each other and scheming, just like in a spy movie.
In the end, as Loki left the abandoned spacecraft, only Cloak Loki, the young Loki, and Alligator Loki were with him.
As for the bald Loki, he had already betrayed them in order to secure the throne.
Speaking of which, Loki's obsession with the throne was really quite extensive. In a place as remote as this, where there were barely any people to be seen, he was still talking about the throne. It was quite comical.
What Loki didn't know was that not long after he was pruned, the female Loki also chose to prune herself and arrived in this void.
The female Loki's luck was slightly worse than Loki's. As soon as she entered, she was targeted by Miss Minutes, and massive waves of purple smoke chased after her.
Drip, drip, drip!
Just when she couldn't shake off the purple smoke, a car drove up and honked wildly.
Without hesitation, the female Loki climbed into the car.
"It's you." What surprised her was that the driver was actually Mobius, a TVA agent.
Speaking of which, Mobius was definitely an extremely important figure to Loki. Back when Loki was captured by the TVA, he was directly sentenced to be pruned by Ravonna Renslayer. Mobius was the one who saved Loki.
Later on, it was because of Loki that Mobius realized he had been deceived by the TVA all along. He found out that he was also a variant in time, and Ravonna Renslayer had him pruned.
"Close the door." Mobius said to the female Loki, "We're not completely out of danger yet."
Mobius drove with the female Loki, evading the purple mist of Miss Minutes and finally arriving beside Loki, who had just gone through the "Loki's Great Rebellion."
"Sylvie." Loki jogged over and reached the female Loki's side.
"You're alive." The female Loki looked at Loki.
"What happened? Are you okay?" Loki asked.
Mobius also got out of the car.
"Mobius." Seeing this old friend, Loki was still quite pleased, "What happened to you guys..."
"We thought you needed reinforcements." The female Loki said.
The young Loki, Cloak Loki, and Alligator Loki walked over at this time. Of course, Loki gave a simple introduction of the three companions to the female Loki, and he also mentioned his intention to kill Miss Minutes.
"I believe the person we're looking for is beyond the void at the end of time," the female Loki offered another viewpoint, "If that's the case, the creature is their watchdog, guarding the only entrance."
"Alright, then how do we get past the watchdog?" Loki asked.
"I'm going to use enchantment to control it," the female Loki said.
"That's crazy." Loki burst into laughter as soon as he heard the plan. He was familiar with the female Loki's enchantment, it worked on humans, but trying to control that creature with it was simply wishful thinking.
"How crazy?" the female Loki asked, "Crazy enough to cut through madness like me with my great sword, Cloud?"
"Listen, I've been here longer than you," Loki attempted to convince her.
"I'm going to use enchantment on it," the female Loki persisted.
"She's quite confident," Mobius remarked from the side.
"This female Loki is really confident," Tony Stark said within the response space, "just like our Loki in this world."
"Exactly, Loki is that confident," Loki added, "It seems that no matter which Loki from which world, they all share this fine quality."
"Tony's being sarcastic, didn't you catch that?" Nick Fury pointed out, "I think Tony means arrogance."
"It's not 'probably' arrogance, I mean arrogance," Tony Stark clarified, "That creature, wanting to control it with so-called enchantment? Judging by the enchantment that female Loki has demonstrated before, I think it's more reliable for her to rely on her own charm."
"Tony, don't be so quick to draw conclusions." Steve Rogers chimed in, "The female Loki has only demonstrated her enchantment once or twice in the video. We don't know much about this enchantment, and perhaps it does have that much power. We just haven't understood it yet."
"We might not understand it, but the Loki in the video certainly does." Tony Stark stated, "Everyone saw it, even the person who knows the most about it thought it was crazy."
"No, the person who knows enchantment the most is not that Loki," Thor interjected, "it's the female Loki herself. Since the female Loki insists on using enchantment to control that creature, I believe she might actually succeed, at least with some degree of success. The female Loki doesn't seem like a fool who's throwing herself to her death."
"I think Thor makes a valid point," Peter Quill said, "The female Loki wanting to use enchantment might seem incredible, but it's quite likely to work."
"How do I know you won't betray me at the last moment?" In the video, the female Loki and Loki were having a heart-to-heart conversation, and the female Loki asked.
"Listen, Sylvie..." Loki hesitated to say the next words, seeming to have difficulty, but after a pause, he continued, "I've betrayed everyone who loved me, my father, my brother, my home. I know what I've done, and I know why I did it. But I'm different now. Alright? I won't let you down."
"Are you sure?" The female Loki was draped in a blanket Loki had conjured for her, she turned to look at Loki, "Because if we succeed, TVA disappears, and maybe there'll be a timeline for you to rule."
"Then I can finally be happy." Loki smiled, "And what about you? What will you do after all this is over?"
"I don't know," the female Loki said.
"I don't know either." Loki and the female Loki said the same words, "Maybe we can figure it out together."
"Perhaps," the female Loki looked at Loki.
"Wow, between these two Lokis, something seems a bit off, guys?" Peter Quill couldn't help but exclaim, looking at the pair of Lokis gazing affectionately at each other in the video, "Is it just me who feels this, or is that nauseating ambiguity really oozing out of the screen?"
"Quill, you're not mistaken, there's definitely something brewing between those two Lokis," Natasha Romanoff commented with an extremely exasperated expression, "Loki falling for Loki, it's really true that the forest is big, and all sorts of birds are there."
"This is what true narcissism looks like," Wanda Maximoff chimed in, "This is the true meaning of narcissism."
"Loki, I'm truly impressed by you, you actually have the heart to go after yourself!" Thor didn't know what to say anymore, "No wonder you never took a liking to anyone in Asgard, turns out you had your eye on yourself!"
"Loki, I admire you, this is the first time I've seen someone being so ruthless to themselves." Tony Stark gave Loki a thumbs up.
"Everyone, just shut up!" Loki had a vein popping on his forehead, "What kind of looks are you giving? How can you say there's an ambiguity between me and the female Loki? That's brotherhood! Do you not understand brotherly feelings? After all, we're Lokis, with nearly identical life experiences and shared goals, our relationship is naturally better, is there a problem?"
"Brotherhood, huh?" Tony Stark laughed, "You better pray that the video doesn't show Loki-on-Loki action."
Snap, snap!
In the scene, thunder roared, lightning streaked across the sky, rolling black clouds pressed down, creating a scene of the apocalypse.
Loki, the female Loki, Cloak Loki, young Loki, along with Alligator Loki, and Mobius stood there, watching the terrifying sight on the horizon with serious expressions.
"Alright, what's the next step?" Mobius asked.
"We have to take down the TVA," the female Loki's tone was resolute, "We don't know who the creators are, or where they are."
"But that thing knows!" the female Loki pointed towards the sky, "When it attacked me before, I connected with it, although it was brief, I saw some images. I believe that if I can get close to it, I can use enchantment to control it. It will lead me to the ones behind everything."
So it turns out the reason the female Loki insisted on using enchantment to control that creature wasn't just her self-confidence; she had unintentionally connected with it before.
"I'm staying." Loki said in a low voice, he intended to stay and help the female Loki, even though he had called the idea crazy before.
"Loki, I don't know if I can succeed." The female Loki spoke the truth.
"If you're going, then I'm going." Loki's tone was very determined.
This scene reminded one of the moment on that big ship when the poor boy who had won his ticket onto the ship said to the rich girl, "If you jump, I jump."
"It's about to appear." Young Loki pointed in a direction, "The time branch will be there!"
"Do you guys want tickets to get out?" Mobius asked the other Lokis on the side.
"What?" Young Loki immediately responded, "No, we're not leaving."
"This is our home," Cloak Loki said.
"Are you sure?" Loki turned to ask, "What about Yggdrasil?"
"We've held on for this long, we know in our hearts," Cloak Loki said.
"Loki, you'll need this on your journey." Young Loki conjured a sparkling golden dagger and handed it to Loki, "Take it."
Loki accepted the dagger and conjured a sheath on his shoulder, sliding the blade into it.
"Good luck to you." Cloak Loki said, "I hope you find what you're looking for."
With a simple farewell, young Loki, Cloak Loki, and Alligator Loki left.
"It seems you managed to escape in the end." Mobius opened a portal with the time device.
"I always find a way." Loki asked, "What will you do when you're back at the TVA?"
"Turn it to ashes." Mobius stated without hesitation, "Thanks for the spark."
Loki smiled.
"Goodbye, Loki." Mobius reached out his hand to Loki.
Loki didn't shake it.
He walked over and gave Mobius a hug.
These two enemies from the beginning, who didn't trust each other at first, had come to regard each other as the best of friends after going through so much together.
"Thank you, my friend," Loki said to Mobius.
"You're my favorite," Mobius said to the female Loki on the side.
Then, he stepped through the portal and disappeared.
On the scene, only Loki and the female Loki remained.
Both of them walked towards the mass of lightning and dark clouds without hesitation.
"When the time branch appears, Yggdrasil will focus on it," the female Loki explained her plan to Loki as they walked, "That's when I'll use enchantment on Yggdrasil."
Snap, snap!
Thick thunderclaps continued.
The massive face of a creature formed from the clouds roared, its eyes glowing.
The scene was incredibly shocking.
Loki and the female Loki exchanged a glance, neither of them afraid. They marched towards the monstrous face with determination.
They quickly arrived in front of the creature.
However, the time branch hadn't appeared yet.
"What if the time branch doesn't show up?" amidst the howling wind and lightning, Loki shouted to the female Loki.
"Then we improvise." The female Loki said.
Loki patted the female Loki's shoulder, nodded at her, and then dashed to the side.
Drawing the sword from his back, Loki's blade emitted a brilliant light like fireworks.
"Come and get me!" Loki waved the radiant sword and yelled at the creature.

[END OF CHAPTER]
Loki's plan was good, but the monster wasn't stupid. It completely ignored him playing the "matador" role and went straight for Lady Loki.
"No! This way!" Loki dashed toward the monster's head, "Come and get me!"
Loki was running as fast as he could, but he was still a step behind. The monstrous head reached Lady Loki, its jaws gaping, ready to devour her.
At the critical moment, a burst of green light suddenly emerged. Beneath this green light, a castle rose from the ground, materializing out of thin air!
Cloak Loki, having returned!
The castle was immense, successfully isolating Loki and Lady Loki from the monster's attack range.
"How did he do that?" Lady Loki looked at the continually forming massive castle in shock.
"We're stronger than we think," Loki said.
"Hurry up!" Cloak Loki shouted from a distance. It was probably his refined demeanor that made him say that, or else he might have said something like "Are your brains squeezed if you're still chatting at a time like this?"
Lady Loki grabbed Loki's hand.
"What are you doing?" Loki asked.
"We're going to use enchantment together," Lady Loki said.
"But I don't know how." Loki said, wondering if Lady Loki was trying to hold his hand opportunistically.
"You will." Lady Loki firmly held Loki's hand, "Because we're the same."
Loki fell silent and, hand in hand with Lady Loki, exerted all their power to use enchantment.
A strange thing happened. Loki clearly couldn't use enchantment before, but with Lady Loki holding his hand, they successfully cast the spell.
Meanwhile, Cloak Loki had supported the immense castle for a while and finally reached his limit. He couldn't sustain the grand structure any longer.
"Glory and honor!" However, Cloak Loki had no fear. He stood there, raising his hands high, and solemnly shouted these words.
The enormous head of the monster lunged towards him.
"Hahaha!" Cloak Loki burst into laughter. Amidst his laughter, he was devoured by the monster, leaving behind only the helmet with the unsightly double horns.
With Cloak Loki gone, neither Loki nor Lady Loki had protection.
The massive head of the monster started rushing towards them.
Just as the fearsome head was about to engulf them, a devastating green light burst forth from within them. It dove into the monster and immediately turned the sky filled with dark clouds into green.
The enchantment had succeeded!
"Open your eyes." Lady Loki opened her eyes first and said to Loki, who still had his eyes shut.
The green clouds retreated to the sides like a door being opened, revealing a castle in front of them.
The two Lokis exchanged a glance, held hands, and walked towards the castle.
The space dimmed, and the video ended there.
"Again with this! Again with this!" Tony Stark was practically fuming, "We're about to find out who's behind TVA, and it cuts off at this crucial moment!"
"It's absolutely infuriating!" Peter Quill stamped his foot in frustration.
"That building must be where the creator of TVA resides. It doesn't even compare to the grandeur of Stark's mansion." Stephen Strange said, "Seems like this creator isn't all that impressive."
"True big shots are always low-key luxurious. They're not poor because they can't afford it; they just don't care." Clint Barton said, "You think everyone's like Tony, who can't wait to plaster 'rich guy' on their foreheads?"
"Clint, you're not a big shot, why are you speaking about big shots being low-key?" Tony Stark retorted, "But your idea of putting 'rich guy' on my armor's head isn't bad. I'll add it all over my suit later."
"I don't think this TVA creator is much of a big shot." Natasha Romanoff said, "Would a big shot be found by two Lokis so easily?"
"Yeah, being found out by two Lokis makes their style plummet." Scott Lang chimed in.
"Hey!" Loki interjected from the side, dissatisfied, "What's with this condescending tone? What do you mean no style just because I found them? I'm pretty impressive too, you know?"
"Powerful?" Natasha Romanoff smirked, "Don't you think calling yourself powerful is a bit of a stretch, especially compared to your brother Thor and many other beings who can easily outmatch you even though you're a god?"
"As if Thor hasn't been beaten up by others before," Loki retorted.
"Hey!" Now it was Thor's turn to be unhappy, "Why bring me into this?"
"I think maybe it's not Loki who found the TVA creator, but the creator who wanted to be found," Bruce Banner suddenly interjected.
"What do you mean?" Loki asked.
"What is TVA? Although I can't fully agree with their mission of safeguarding the sacred timeline, they undeniably have the ability to manipulate time. If so, wouldn't the creator know that Loki would find them in the future?" Bruce Banner asked.
"Dr. Banner makes a good point," Phil Coulson added, "The founder shouldn't logically be unaware of being found, yet Loki still managed to find them."
"I think you're overthinking it," Loki said, "Just because TVA employees can time-travel doesn't mean the creator of TVA can. The owner of a restaurant doesn't need to know how to cook; they just need to manage the employees who can cook."
"There's something worth noting here. Loki was actually able to use Lady Loki's enchantment." Steve Rogers chimed in, "Different Lokis from different worlds, yet they can use each other's abilities?"
"It doesn't make any sense," Tony Stark interjected, "These are entirely different worlds. Why should they share abilities?"
"I wonder if it's just Loki, or if everyone can do it?" Peter Quill mused.
[Question 7 begins, be prepared.]
[Ned Leeds uses a portal to find Peter Parker but accidentally discovers another universe's Peter Parker. However, the visitors from other universes are not just Spider-Men; they also include supervillains from other worlds. Which supervillain did not cross over between universes?]
[A Electro, Max Dillon]
[B Green Goblin, Norman Osborn]
[C Rhino, Aleksei Sytsevich]
[D Doctor Octopus, Otto Octavius]
[Answer correctly, and you'll receive the "Tiamut Hibernation Curse," which can make the celestial Tiamut sleep for a thousand years. Answer incorrectly, and a year of your lifespan will be deducted.]
"A thousand years of sleep for Tiamut?" Sersi was shocked upon seeing this reward, "What's the origin of this quiz space? They can even put a Celestial to sleep for a thousand years? That's a Celestial!"
"Indeed, we'd like to know the origin of this quiz space as well," Steve Rogers said, "Celestials, beings who create suns and galaxies, are already the utmost supreme entities. Yet, in my opinion, even a Celestial is nothing significant to the quiz space."
"You've been answering these quizzes for rounds now, and you don't know the origin of the quiz space?" Sersi asked.
"We have no clue," Thor shook his head.
"Odin doesn't know either?" Sersi inquired, "Odin also doesn't know?"
"My father is also unaware," Thor said.
"And the Ancient One?" Sersi questioned, "The Ancient One doesn't know either?"
"My teacher has always been curious about the quiz space," Stephen Strange said.
"Celestials, creators of suns, creators of the universe. TVA, claiming to be guardians of time, freely traversing time, wandering through time. Observers, always silently watching without interference." Tony Stark said, "Regardless of which, they're all the most supreme existences in the world. But no matter how powerful they are, in the quiz space, they can be exposed casually, and nothing can remain hidden. The quiz space is clearly more advanced than these existences."
"I don't really care about the origin of the quiz space, who created it, who's setting the questions, and all those questions. I don't care about any of it," Steve Rogers said, "I just know that the quiz space stands with humanity, stands with justice, and that's enough for me."
"Stands with humanity?" Sersi asked, "Are you sure?"
"I can't say for certain, but it's very likely," Steve Rogers said, "Haven't you noticed? The quiz space selects individuals for questioning, and they're always superheroes. And in the form of questions and answers, it's revealing the future disasters that Earth will face while also enhancing our abilities. It might not directly protect the people, but it shows us the future, which is a greater contribution than anything any one of us can make."
"Absolutely, us so-called superheroes, taking down a couple of supervillains, dismantling a few criminal organizations—compared to revealing the existence of Thanos, what are we really achieving?" Nick Fury said, "Those events concern the lives of billions!"
"But the questions they've been giving us lately are becoming increasingly difficult to analyze," Tony Stark said, "At first, the questions could be deduced and eliminated based on some information, but this question, there's absolutely no clue. It's impossible to even begin analyzing."
"However, based on the nature of the questions they've been asking, I can generally figure out what this question is about." Scott Lang said, "Out of the four options, Electro and Doctor Octopus have appeared in the video before, so I think they're also the ones who crossed over."
"Like the other two Spider-Men." Peter Parker added.
"Exactly, just like the other two Peter Parkers." Scott Lang confirmed.
"Although Green Goblin didn't appear in the previous videos, the previous Peter Parker did mention him. We know that in another Spider-Man universe, this villain exists." Steve Rogers said, "However, for Rhino, neither of the two Peter Parkers mentioned him. We can't even be sure if he's a villain in the Spider-Man world."
"So, choosing C is the most likely option," Tony Stark and Steve Rogers agreed.
"I choose C!" Peter Parker immediately selected C.
[Correct answer! Reward distributed!]
A string of extremely bizarre characters appeared in the air, flying straight into Peter Parker's mouth. Instantly, a black light surged, making it impossible to keep one's eyes open.
Just like when Thor received the "Hela's Dormancy Curse," it was a similar situation.
"Once we leave the quiz space, I'll cast a spell, and Tiamut will fall into slumber," Peter Parker said, "For now, we don't need to worry about that Celestial."
"But that's only temporary," Thor said, "Just like Hela, it's ultimately a hidden danger."
"The quiz space has given us a millennium of time; we'll find a solution," Steve Rogers said, "Our home still needs our protection. The quiz space has already guided us sufficiently; we can't expect it to do everything."
"Captain's right," Bruce Banner said, "Our home still needs us to safeguard it."
"If we choose option C for this question, it means Electro, Doctor Octopus, and Green Goblin have all come to our world," Stephen Strange said.
"These supervillains—Electro might pose a slightly bigger challenge, but the rest are more manageable," Clint Barton said. If it were in the past, he might have struggled against these foes, but after multiple rounds of strengthening, his strength had far surpassed what it used to be.
Not to mention his combination of wall-penetrating arrows and the perception of Haki Color Observation. Without a warning ability similar to Peter Parker's Spider-Sense, it was almost impossible to evade him.
Moreover, Clint Barton also had the unique arrows enhanced by the quiz space rewards, which granted them special abilities.
It could be said that Clint Barton, at this point, was undoubtedly a reaper of lives.
When he truly set his mind to killing someone, even among these "quiz companions" who answered questions together, only a few could survive.
"Still, we must not underestimate them," Steve Rogers said, "These supervillains might not be difficult for us to handle, but for ordinary people, they would be a disaster. Our goal isn't just to defeat these supervillains; it's to protect the people."
Soon, light appeared in the space, and the video began playing.
As the footage began, Peter Parker was wearing a suit and walking hurriedly on an elevated bridge.
Traffic was heavy; all vehicles were stuck in place, unable to move forward, and the honking of horns was incessant.
Peter Parker approached a black car and adjusted his clothes. "Tap tap," he knocked on the car window.
"What's up?" A black woman sat inside the car, and she rolled down the window to ask.
"Hello, I'm Peter Parker..." Peter Parker started to speak.
"Do you realize you're standing on a busy road?" the black woman asked.
"I know, I'm sorry, but I really need to talk to you," Peter Parker's words came out rapidly, "I know you're headed to the airport now, but MJ and Ned are the smartest people I've ever met in my life. And I'm just a big fool because I let them help me, but if I don't let them help me, millions of people will die. So don't let MIT become as foolish as I am."
"MIT fool?" Peter Parker rattled off that string of words like a machine gun, and the black woman heard that one sentence.
"No, I didn't say MIT is foolish," Peter Parker quickly denied, "What I meant is that the fool who shouldn't have let them help is me."
"Did you not rehearse this script beforehand, Peter?" the black woman asked.
"Anyway, what I want to say is..." Just then, Peter Parker suddenly sensed something.
