Chapter 2094 - 2094 Bruce, Let's Go
2094 Bruce, Let’s Go
No wonder Thor still had the confidence to save the remaining people even after Hela crushed his hammer.
With Gungnir, Luke and Dr. Banner’s help, his chances of success were very high.
Luke’s heart jumped when he heard that.
Loki had pretended to be Odin with the Gungnir spear for years. There probably wasn’t some sort of prohibition on it that prevented other people from picking it up — at least, it wouldn’t be as strict as the prohibition on Mjölnir.
Now that Odin was dead, even if Luke ‘forcefully’ used Gungnir like he had with Mjölnir, there would be no more issues.
It had to be pointed out that Thor’s One-Handed Hammer Proficiency was an Advanced ability, while he was at most at the Elementary level with a spear.
Luke’s Cold Weapon Proficiency was close to the Intermediate level, and he was pretty good with a spear.
When Luke ‘borrowed’ it in an emergency, would Thor be able to snatch it back on the spot?
Thor didn’t know that Mjölnir aside, a certain person didn’t want to let go of his father’s spear either.
With a solemn expression, he put on the nanosuit which Luke gave to him and activated the stealth system.
Luke looked at Dr. Banner. “You don’t want it?”
Dr. Banner said awkwardly and helplessly, “The Hulk and I… have a little problem…”
Luke went “huh,” then looked at Valkyrie.
The woman’s expression was very normal. “I’m only responsible for picking up civilians.”
Luke nodded, but still gave both of them nanosuits. “Apart from armor, it can also turn into goggles, earpieces and helmets. At the very least, we can stay in contact.”
Hearing that, the two of them accepted the nanosuits, which looked like square boxes.
The outer armor which Luke had already activated immediately spread over their bodies. A moment later, a pair of thick black-rimmed glasses appeared on Dr. Banner’s face, and Valkyrie was wearing clear goggles.
On the side, Thor was already impatient. “Are you done?”
Luke turned around. “Don’t be hasty. Until we get Gungnir, Hela still has the absolute advantage in strength. If anything goes wrong, it won’t be hard for thousands more to die.”
“Okay, I’ll be careful.” Thor took a deep breath, then looked at Heimdall. “I’ll leave things here to you.”
“Okay.” Heimdall said, “you be careful, too.”
Thor activated his nanosuit and turned invisible. He jumped out of the ship, and Luke followed him.
After a brief silence, Valkyrie asked, “Can they… do it?”
Unlike Heimdall and Dr. Banner, she was someone who had truly experienced the horror that was Hela, and had been lucky to survive.
Back then, Valkyrie hadn’t been alone, but she and her comrades-in-arms had been part of Odin’s personal army, and were called the Valkyries.
When Odin chose to fight Hela, they were ordered to participate in the operation to capture her.
In the end, Odin succeeded, Hela failed, and the Asgardian Valkyries disappeared.
As a survivor, she didn’t think that either Odin or Hela were right or wrong; it was just a power struggle.
This family fought among themselves, while the Valkyries were completely wiped out.
In the end, in order to cover up the truth, Odin even hid the truth of the circumstances surrounding the Valkyries’ deaths.
They became the Valkyries and inherited the will of the Valkyrie; they weren’t Odin’s hired thugs.
It was truly an insult to the Valkyries who had died as such.
Thus, as the last survivor, Valkyrie fled Asgard, unwilling to serve Odin’s family anymore.
Heimdall turned to look at her and said in a low voice, “Thor and Knight are much stronger than you think.”
Valkyrie chuckled. If she and the Hulk hadn’t helped Thor, that idiot might still be shouting “help me” on Planet Sakaar.
That was it? How much stronger could they be?
Looking at her expression, Dr. Banner couldn’t help but add, “Knight is very strong. He’s never lost on our side.”
Valkyrie looked at him like he was an idiot. “How many Midgardians can be good? So what if he has never lost? That doesn’t prove anything.”
Dr. Banner thought for a moment. “If we fight for real, Thor and the Hulk together might not necessarily be able to beat him.”
Valkyrie was surprised. “How can you be sure?”
Dr. Banner had an indecipherable expression on his face. “If you knew what the Avengers think of him in private, you would probably understand.”
Valkyrie asked, “What’s the Avengers?”
“Our superhero union.” Seeing her indifferent expression again, Dr. Banner added, “It includes Thor and the Hulk.”
Valkyrie was a little interested. “What does Thor say about him?”
Dr. Banner said, “Except for when he brags after some drinks, he has never said that he can beat Knight. Of course, when he brags, the Avengers all know that it’s hot air.”
Valkyrie: “…”
For Thor as well as his friends to tacitly agree that the other party was very strong, it was indeed unlikely that those were empty words.
So, they might really be able to hold off Hela and save everyone? She wanted to believe this, but it was hard to forget how Hela had slaughtered the Valkyries with a wave of her hand.
No matter how strong a Midgardian was, it was impossible to reach that level of strength. She shook her head slightly and turned her face away without saying anything else. Rather than trust that Knight, it was better to believe that Thor could create a miracle.
…
On the other side, Thor snuck into the palace with Luke and went straight to God-Queen Frigga’s residence.
In an unremarkable study, Thor deactivated a spell, and a door appeared in the wall.
Thor went in and immediately came out with a golden spear in his hand. It was Odin’s exclusive divine weapon, Gungnir.
Thor had a nostalgic look on his face. “Loki always hid here back then. I pretended I couldn’t find him, but that was because it was my mother who set this up. I didn’t want to expose her.”
He didn’t say anything else.
The fact that Gungnir was here proved Loki’s feelings for Frigga.
Compared with how he felt about Odin, Loki loved Frigga, who had accompanied him since he was young and taught him magic.
Luke didn’t rush Thor.
In just a few years, his parents died, his friends, the Warriors Three, were killed, the soldiers were slaughtered, Asgard fell into Hela’s hands, and the people were killed wantonly.
His brother, the only person left, was still a troublemaker who liked to stir things up and stab his brother.
Thinking that, Luke felt that Thor’s situation had indeed been pretty wretched lately.
Before they moved forward with the evacuation plan, there was nothing wrong with giving Thor some time to reminisce.
Fortunately, Thor wasn’t someone to remain immersed in his sadness.
Soon, he composed himself and gripped Gungnir tightly. He looked in the direction of the palace. “Now, it’s my turn to do my best for Asgard.”
Father! Mother! Please protect me, Thor thought to himself as he waved his hand. “Bruce, let’s go.”
