Chapter 79 Thor: Are all Earthlings monsters?
"For Asgard!"

Thor's roar was like a thunderclap from a clear sky, exploding in the silent desert night.

He charged toward the brightly lit temporary base like a raging bull.

The S.H.I.E.L.D. agents guarding the perimeter were taken aback at first, then looked at each other in bewilderment.

What's up with this guy?
He wasn't carrying any weapons, nor did he appear to be strapped with bombs, and he was shouting something like "Asgard."

Did some film crew wander onto the wrong set, or is this some new performance art?
"What the hell? Is this guy here to cosplay as a Viking hunk?"

A young agent muttered to himself.

"Never mind that, let's get under control first!"

The squad leader frowned and made a decision immediately.

"You guys, report to command center immediately! I'll take care of this!"

Before he finished speaking, a strange wriggling suddenly appeared on the surface of the black combat suit he was wearing.

It expanded and reconstructed rapidly, like a living thing, and in the blink of an eye, it formed a tight-fitting suit that shimmered with a dark luster, completely covering his entire body.

This is the individual combat suit promoted by the Osborn Group in cooperation with the military. For senior agents of front-line combat units like S.H.I.E.L.D., it is almost standard equipment for every one of them.

The sense of power and security brought by the bio-suit gave the squad leader full confidence.

Thor, who was charging forward, was slightly taken aback when he saw the "armor" that suddenly appeared on his opponent's body.

However, he did not back down because of this.

As a prince of Asgard, even though he had temporarily lost his divine powers, his inherent pride would not allow him to be intimidated by such a small matter.

"drink!"

Thor roared, and his fist, as big as a casserole dish, slammed into the face of the armored agent with a whooshing sound.

He used all his strength in that punch, confident that he could knock down even a bull on the spot!
However, the scene of the other party breaking bones and tendons that was expected did not occur.

The armored agent simply raised his arm without any haste.

"Oh!"

There was a muffled sound.

Thor's powerful punch was effortlessly blocked by his opponent, leaving not even a mark on the surface of his armor.

"Um?!"

Thor's pupils suddenly contracted as he stared in disbelief at his fist being caught firmly.

How can it be? !
Even without divine power, his physical strength far surpasses that of ordinary people, so how could this be...?

Before he could recover from his shock, the armored squad leader flipped his wrist, grabbed Thor's arm, and pulled him back sharply, executing a standard over-the-shoulder throw!
"Whoa!"

Thor felt a tremendous force, and his whole body spun around before he crashed heavily onto the hard sand, kicking up a cloud of dust.

Immediately afterwards, the armored squad leader pressed down on him like a leech, firmly controlling him.

"you……"

Just as Thor was about to struggle to say something, a powerful and domineering electric current suddenly surged from the armored agent's body, instantly penetrating his entire body!
"Zi la la——!"

Thor felt a violent spasm and convulsion throughout his body, and then everything went black before his eyes, and he completely lost consciousness.

"Target has been suppressed."

The colonel stood up, shook his hand, and a satisfied smile appeared on his lips.

He glanced at his own suit with considerable admiration.

This latest model of bio-armor incorporates the bio-electric discharge ability of electric eels, and the effect is indeed outstanding.

……

On the other side, inside the temporary command tent of the research base.

Coulson put down the walkie-talkie, his expression somewhat strange.

He turned to Harry Osborn, who was facing the computer screen analyzing data from Thor's Hammer, and said, "Mr. Harry, my men have apprehended two suspicious individuals outside: a burly man who calls himself 'Thor,' and a woman who appears to be his accomplice."

The next morning.

Thor slowly woke up on the makeshift medical bed in the temporary research institute.

What came into view was an unfamiliar white ceiling.

"hiss……"

He shook his somewhat heavy head, and memories of last night before he was electrocuted came flooding back like a tide.

Damn Midgardians!
They haven't been here for hundreds of years, and they've already learned to attack with lightning?

This is practically a challenge to his authority as Thor!
"Welcome, Mr. Saul."

A gentle voice sounded beside him.

Thor turned his head and saw a man in a suit with a smile on his face looking at him.

"who are you?"

"I asked cautiously," Thor asked.

"Phil Coulson, Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D."

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Lord Saul."

Coulson answered calmly, extending his hand as he did so, though he was somewhat wary.

After capturing the burly man and the female astronomer last night, just to be on the safe side, he had Harry analyze the burly man's DNA.

The results showed that although the blond, muscular man in front of them looked no different from an Earthling, his cellular structure, genetic material, and even his internal body structure were significantly different from those of humans.

In other words, what the female astronomer said might be true...

"Oh?"

Thor raised an eyebrow and grasped Coulson's hand.

This guy in front of me is actually giving me face...

"May I ask why you've come here?"

Coulson took a deep breath and then asked.

Thor's eyes lit up, and he began to tell his own story, of course, an embellished version.

He fought bravely against the frost giants, but was misunderstood by his father, Odin, and banished to Earth...

"..."

Coulson listened to these stories with bewildered expressions, but out of his agent's training, he patiently listened on. He even occasionally agreed with Saul's points, offering guiding responses in an attempt to glean more information…

Meanwhile, in another isolated temporary laboratory.

Harry Osborn was operating the instrument with complete concentration.
The image displayed on the screen was a picture of a live cell sample extracted from Saul.

"【Prometheus】, records cellular energy activity and analyzes its cellular equivalent structure..."

Harry gave instructions while observing carefully.

The structure of these cells is indeed very different from that of life on Earth. Their energy conversion efficiency is astonishingly high, and the strength of their cell walls far exceeds that of human cells.

"Interesting. This cell structure seems to naturally possess an extremely strong energy affinity..."

Harry's eyes gleamed with the excitement typical of a researcher.

From a biological perspective, this thing is extremely valuable for research!

After some communication, Coulson finally managed to get a general idea of ​​Thor's identity and the origin of the mysterious hammer from him.

Asgard, the realm of the gods, Odin, Thor's hammer...

But considering the hammer that couldn't be moved no matter what, and Thor's unusual physical structure, Coulson had to start seriously considering the veracity of these claims.

"So you mean that hammer is yours, and only those it approves of can lift it?"

Coulson concluded.

"That's right! Mjolnir belongs to me!"

"As long as I pick it up again, I will regain all my strength!"

Thor looked up at Coulson with anticipation.

After talking to him, he also figured out Coulson's identity: he was the leader of these Earthlings. If Coulson agreed, he could get the hammer.

“Alright, Mr. Saul.”

"We'll take you to try lifting that hammer."

After a moment's thought, Coulson made his decision.

Thor was very pleased with Coulson's "sensible" behavior.

He patted Coulson on the shoulder and said casually:
"Coulson, your decision is wise."

Once I reclaim Mjolnir and restore my thunderous power, I will bestow upon you boundless wealth and glory!

The vaults of Asgard are overflowing with jewels that the Midgardians could only dream of!

Upon hearing this, Coulson's lips twitched involuntarily, and for a moment he didn't know how to respond to this "gift from God."

He coughed lightly and led Thor toward the area where Mjolnir was located.

There, Harry Osborn had already directed S.H.I.E.L.D. researchers to set up various high-precision sensors and recording devices around the hammer.

His goal was clear: to capture any subtle changes that might occur in the hammer itself and its surroundings as Thor attempted to lift it.

Thor paid no attention to the strange instruments around him.

His eyes were fixed on the familiar warhammer stuck in the center of the shallow pit—Mjolnir!

He strode up to the hammer, took a deep breath, and his face was full of confidence.

Then, he reached out his right hand and gripped the cold, familiar hammer handle tightly.

work hard!

However, the hammer remained motionless, as if it had become one with the earth.

"Ok?"

Thor's smile froze.

He increased his strength, his arm muscles bulging and veins standing out.

The hammer remained completely still.

"Cough cough~"

Feeling the strange looks from the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents around him, Thor coughed twice awkwardly to cover up his embarrassment.

He refused to believe it, gripped the hammer handle with both hands, bent forward, and exerted all his strength, even using his feet, until he was practically hanging on the hammer.

But no matter how much he roared and howled, his face turning red, Thor's hammer, which had fought alongside him for countless years, seemed to be mercilessly mocking his overestimation of his abilities, remaining as steady as Mount Tai, without swaying an inch.

"Forehead……"

Coulson looked at the comical scene before him, his expression turning somewhat strange.

He turned to look at Harry Osborne, who remained calm and focused on the data screen, his eyes seeming to say, "What's going on?"

Harry, however, seemed oblivious to Coulson's gaze, continuing to focus intently on analyzing the real-time data stream transmitted back by Prometheus.

On the screen, various parameters were fluctuating rapidly, but key data such as the hammer's mass and gravitational field showed no abnormal fluctuations.

After a long while, Thor finally let go in frustration and slumped to the ground.

He was breathing heavily, his eyes filled with confusion and disbelief.

why?
Why did Mjolnir reject him?

Is it...

His father not only stripped him of his divine power, but also took back his status as the god of thunder.

Seeing this, Coulson knew it was not a good time to provoke him further, so he quickly stepped forward and gave Saul a way out.

"Mr. Saul, you don't seem to be feeling well today. Shall we go back and rest for a bit, and try again another day?"

He signaled to his men to take the distraught Saul away from the scene.

……

Night falls again.

Harry Osborn carefully sealed the last tube of processed Thor cell sample into a specially designed cryopreservation box.

These biological samples from the "Divine Realm" are of extremely high research value to him, and he plans to take them back to the Osborn Group's private laboratory for further analysis.

"boom--!"

Suddenly, a loud explosion and chaotic shouts came from outside!

Harry raised an eyebrow and quickly connected to the base's monitoring system via his bio-suit.

In the surveillance footage, several warriors clad in ancient metal armor and wielding longswords and battle axes, clearly not of Earth style, were engaged in a fierce battle with S.H.I.E.L.D. agents dressed in cybernetic suits!
Those armored warriors were agile and incredibly strong. They wielded their melee weapons with great force, and were able to fight the special agents in their suits to a standstill!
"Asgardians?"
