บท 77: Chapter 77: The Destroyer Comes
Thor knew what was coming. With his companions now on Earth, it wouldn't be long before Loki sent the Destroyer armor after him. Since Thor's power hadn't been sealed this time, Loki's main goal was likely to keep him occupied on Earth for his own purposes.
Thor, aware of Loki's plans, understood that although it seemed Loki had betrayed Asgard, his real goal wasn't to kill Odin. Instead, he intended to kill Laufey, hoping to prove himself to Odin. Laufey's fate was sealed long ago, and Thor had no intention of stopping Loki—he'd let his brother play out his scheme.
…
S.H.I.E.L.D. worked quickly, and soon Thor's guests were escorted to him.
"Sif! Nebula! Minerva! You're all here!" Thor greeted them warmly, embracing each in turn.
"Oh, great," Fandral called out with a grin. "Let me tell you, Thor's changed! He's no longer the tough guy who thinks a real man's best friends are his brothers. Used to be, we'd get the first hug every time!"
Thor laughed, giving him a solid slap on the shoulder. "Says who? My most valued companion was always the hammer!"
The Warriors Three exchanged glances, noticing that Thor was empty-handed, then looked around—and finally spotted Mjolnir in Jane Foster's grasp. Their eyes widened in shock.
"Wow, so you gave such a priceless hammer to a girl?" Fandral exclaimed. "This from the man who once wore a dress to get it back!"
Thor flushed as the others burst into laughter. "Sif! Take him down!"
Some stories were best left untold…
…
After catching up, Thor's friends informed him of Loki's latest schemes. Nebula and Minerva, meanwhile, hinted that they planned to stay on Earth for a while.
Knowing Loki would soon send the Destroyer, Thor decided to avoid causing collateral damage at the manor. He gathered his companions and took Jane Foster to an open area in the countryside where the Bifrost had recently appeared.
…
In the vast, open wilderness, a fierce tornado stormed into existence within seconds. From it emerged a massive, three-meter-tall suit of armor, gleaming with a metallic sheen—the Destroyer.
Inside S.H.I.E.L.D.'s command headquarters, screens displayed the live feed from nearby drones, showing the Destroyer in full view. Its visor glowed red as it scanned the area, then emitted a fiery beam, vaporizing each drone in an instant. The feed on every screen went from red to snow-white static.
"Report! All drones near the target are down!"
"Report! Satellite has lost contact!"
…
"Damn it!" Nick Fury slammed the table in frustration.
…
In the distance, Thor watched calmly as the Destroyer cleared the area. Loki was simply following protocol, removing any surveillance before he began.
Thor knew it wouldn't be difficult to defeat the Destroyer. Loki didn't have full control, and in the original timeline, Thor had managed to take it down with ease—even without his powers fully intact.
Sif, Nebula, and the Warriors Three unsheathed their weapons, while Natasha armed herself and Minerva set up her sniper rifle.
Then Thor turned to Jane, whose eyes widened as he spoke. "Your first mission," he said, "is to work with your team and destroy any piece of its armor. That's your test."
After days of training, Jane was strong, but she lacked real battle experience. The Destroyer, under controlled conditions, would be a fitting opponent—and with Thor watching over, there was no real danger.
"Me?" Jane asked, taken aback. But as she looked at her teammates and the looming Destroyer, her expression slowly hardened with resolve.
"Yes," Thor nodded. "You."
