The Savior of American Comics? I'm the Subspace Evil God!

Chapter 331 Chapter 578 Chapter 579 Carl's Request: [Cosmic Cube] and [Rainbow Bridge]

"Then tell me the method quickly... You have no idea how dire the situation is for the major nations within the Nine Realms right now. People are dying every minute from the corruption of chaotic energy."

Thor urged, oblivious to the surroundings, "If we can't resolve the threat of the Eye of Terror in time, it won't be long before all of the Nine Realms, except for Midgard, will be transformed by that evil chaotic energy!"

However, who would have thought that the Ancient One across from him smiled and shook his head at him, "I'm sorry, Prince Thor, I'm sorry that I can't do anything about your request."

"Huh? This..."

Thor frowned and asked angrily, "Didn't you just say that Kamar-Taj can resist the invasion of the Eye of Terror with the magical barrier formed by three Temples?"

"Why do you refuse now? Do you know how many innocent civilians will die if you delay the best opportunity?"

Facing the grumpy Thor, Ancient One remained calm and explained to him in a gentle voice: "First of all, although the three [Temple] can probably withstand the erosion of the [Eye of Terror], they were built by the [First Generation Supreme Sorcerer] using the [Source of White Magic]. Therefore, even I don't have the ability to replicate them..."

"Secondly, we, the Mystic Mages of Kamar-Taj, have one and only one mission, and that is to protect Earth from the invasion of mysterious forces..."

"As for the threats that other countries may face, it has nothing to do with us... The residents there can only pray that their 'gods' will save them."

Although what Gu Yi said was very inhumane, it was the truth.

From the day Kamar-Taj was founded, the area it was responsible for protecting was Earth, and only Earth!
Regardless of [Asgard] or the other kingdoms in the [Nine Realms], none of them are under the jurisdiction of [Kama-Taj].

On the contrary, Thor's father, Odin, has always been recognized as the "Lord of the Nine Realms", so when the "Nine Realms" encounter problems, they will naturally go to him for protection?

Could it be blamed on Kamar-Taj?

"Ah this..."

Thor, who was not good at speaking and preferred to use his hands rather than his brain, was immediately speechless. But just when he was about to try again to see if he could persuade the big bald man opposite, he heard Gu Yi on the opposite side change the subject and continue:

"But I can give you a little advice..."

Seeing Thor looking at him with eager desire, Ancient One acted like a master and said meaningfully:
"I suggest you go to Sokovia. If there's anyone in this universe who knows the most about the Warp and Chaos Energy, it's definitely Mr. Karl Mara."

"If he's willing to help [Asgard], perhaps this crisis threatening the [Nine Realms] will see a huge turn for the better!"

Ancient One did not directly reveal that Karl was the Lord of the Warp, nor did he reveal anything about the Four Chaos Gods.

On the one hand, because she did not have a deep relationship with Asgard, and it could even be said that they had no intersection in the past few hundred years, so it was naturally impossible for her to casually reveal such important information.

On the other hand, it was because Ancient One was still a little confused about the real role played by Carl in this incident and the other party's attitude. Now he could use Thor, a simple-minded fool, to test the waters.

So after considering many factors, she naturally chose to stop at that point!
"[Sokovia]...Karl Mara? Hmm, why does this name sound so familiar?"

Thor squeezed his features together and thought for a long time. When his eyes accidentally swept over Wanda, he suddenly reacted and exclaimed loudly:
"Ah, now I remember. You're talking about that brat who stole the [Aether Particle] from me last time, right?"

However, just as he finished speaking, a crimson chaotic magic power immediately imprisoned his sturdy body, and it tightened like a pair of giant steel hands.

The one who took action was naturally Wanda on the opposite side.

Who made Thor speak so foully and disrespectfully to Carl? If not him, who should he deal with?

"Ugh..."

Arcs of lightning suddenly appeared on Thor's body, as if he wanted to use his own divine power to forcibly break free from the chaotic magic released by Wanda, but no matter how he tried, it was of no avail.

"Prince Thor, perhaps apologizing would be a good choice at this time." Gu Yi took a sip of tea and reminded lightly.

What else can Ancient One do?
This love-brained girl under his command is so powerful that even she might not be his match in a few years.

But the other party is completely devoted to Karl Mara, the dimensional demon with ill intentions.

Ancient One was also helpless about this!!

It's true that all the good cabbages are eaten by pigs...

"Um... Sorry, I meant Mr. Karl Mara."

Thor surrendered to Wanda without thinking. After all, he was not here to fight.

If he delays here for one more minute, hundreds of innocent civilians will die in the Nine Realms, so he cannot afford to waste time here.

as predicted.

The next second, Wanda withdrew her chaos magic, but her beautiful face was full of warning.

If Ancient One hadn't been present right now, she would never have let Thor go so easily.

After all, the last time in Greenwich, Thor and Odin almost had a direct conflict with Carl and others.

So as early as the first time she saw Thor, Wanda already remembered his identity.

"Master Wanda, this matter might also be beneficial to Mr. Carl, so could you please send Prince Thor over there?"

Ancient One turned his head meaningfully and looked at Wanda. Although the latter was a little disgusted with Thor, she finally nodded, then put on the [Hanging Ring] and directly opened a portal leading to the main entrance of the [Subspace Group Building].

"Go, Prince Thor... I hope you can find the answers you seek from Mr. Karl Mara!!"

Ancient Yi pointed his finger forward, and the portal rushed directly towards Thor. The next moment, Thor was transferred from the [New York Sanctuary] to the gate of the [Subspace Group].

"This thing is much more convenient than the Rainbow Bridge. It would be great if Asgard also had a wizard like this!"

Thor looked around and then walked towards the [Subspace Group Building].

A few minutes later, led by a hot young secretary, Thor successfully arrived at the chairman's office and met Carl who was sitting on the [Golden Throne] and generating electricity.

"We meet again, Thor!" Carl spoke first with a smile. There was no hostility on his face, but instead there was a bit of anticipation as if a 'big customer' had come to visit.

"Yeah, why didn't I see the man with the sword that burns with fire this time?"

Thor said seriously, "I wasn't in great shape the last time we met. Otherwise, I would have been able to defeat those dark elves and take back the Aether Particles..."

Thor obviously had not forgotten his disastrous defeat in Greenwich, but after the previous episode with Wanda, he immediately explained his purpose.

"Um... Mr. Karl Mara, please don't misunderstand me. I'm not here to ask for [Aether Particles], but to seek your help..."

“Oh?” The smile on Karl’s face grew even more intense. “Tell me about it.”

"A lot has happened since we last met, but none of that matters. What matters is that the Nine Realms are now facing an unprecedented crisis..."

Then Thor recounted the events in his rough and nonsense narrative style, without any logic or focus.

If everything that happened had not been planned by Karl himself, he probably wouldn't have understood what the other party was saying.

I really don't know how a cunning guy like Odin could let this guy with a brain full of muscles come to Earth alone to find the answer.

He might be good at fighting, but when it comes to problems that require thinking... forget it!

"This is roughly the current situation in the Nine Realms..."

Thor, his mouth dry, stretched out his hand and gestured at his thick hair before continuing, "Then the bald wizard told me that he could find the answers he wanted with you."

"So, Mr. Karl Mara, I want to know if the person who tried to stop the chaotic energy from corroding Midgard... was it you?"

Carl didn't say anything, but nodded noncommittally. Seeing this, Thor was overjoyed and cheered like a child:

"Yeah, that's great! Now [Asgard] and [Nine Realms] are finally saved..."

But before he could finish his words, he heard Carl on the Golden Throne say calmly, "But why should I help you and Asgard?"

"what?"

Thor was stunned for a moment, then said somewhat unhappily: "Didn't I also help you [Midgard people] deal with those alien legions that invaded [New York] before?"

"As a courtesy, shouldn't you help Asgard this time?"

"Prince Thor, I think you may have made a mistake."

Carl mercilessly exposed the truth, saying, "The Battle of New York was originally caused by your brother Loki. The humans didn't come after you, Asgard, for the sake of justice. That's already a great favor, okay?"

"What's more, even if you and the so-called Avengers don't take action, those Chitauri won't be able to do anything significant in the end. After all, what Earth lacks the most is people with super powers..."

"And this time, the appearance of the Eye of Terror and the subspace energy storm that affected the entire Nine Realms were all caused by your suicidal brother Loki..."

"No matter how you look at it, this is all caused by Odin and Asgard's failure to control that troublemaker... So why should I help Asgard?!"

"Ah, this..."

Thor was so shocked that he couldn't refute. He knew Loki's crimes better than anyone else, but he was his cute little brother after all.

What else can he do except forgive her again and again without any bottom line?
Thor thought for a moment, then said sincerely, "Mr. Karl Mara, I deeply apologize for the crimes my brother Loki committed, and I am willing to use my actions to help Midgard resolve various crises in the future..."

"But right now, you're the only one capable of helping Asgard and the countless innocent civilians in the Nine Realms overcome this crisis... If you're willing to lend a hand, I and the entire Asgard will become your most loyal allies!"

Forming an alliance is the best solution Thor can think of at the moment.

You must know that before the appearance of the Eye of Terror, being able to form an alliance with Asgard was equivalent to having an extremely powerful backer in the Nine Realms.

This is something many countries dream of.

But at the moment, Thor was not sure whether such conditions could impress the young man on the [Golden Throne] opposite him.

"An alliance?"

Carl chuckled upon hearing this and immediately said jokingly, "Even Asgard is struggling now. There's no benefit in forming an alliance with you!"

"But..." Thor looked embarrassed, but he was unwilling to give up.

"Don't waste your energy there. It's not impossible for me to help you, but it requires [Asgard] to show the most basic sincerity!!"

Seeing Karl give in, Thor's eyes suddenly lit up, and he asked anxiously, "Hmm? So what do you mean by sincerity..."

Carl said bluntly: "I want the [Cosmic Cube] and the technology to build the [Rainbow Bridge]!!"

"what?"

Thor was obviously shocked by such an outrageous request. No, buddy, you are taking advantage of me a bit, aren't you?
Don’t you know how important the [Tesseract] and [Rainbow Bridge] are to [Asgard]?

Is that something you can have just by asking for it?

That’s too much, buddy!!
Without a second thought, he shook his head and refused, "I'm sorry, Mr. Karl Mara, but I don't think my father would agree to such a request. Both the Cosmic Cube and the Rainbow Bridge are extremely important treasures to Asgard..."

"Especially the [Bifrost], which combines [Asgard's] most advanced technology with its most profound magic. If I give you [Bifrost Technology], it would be like giving you a weapon capable of destroying [Asgard]... So, could you offer something else in exchange?"

Who would have thought that Carl would be so resolute that he said, "If I really wanted to destroy Asgard, I would just stand by and watch. Why would I need to bargain with you here?"

"As for what you said, the [Tesseract] and [Rainbow Bridge] are very important to [Asgard]. I don't deny that..."
