Waiting to Loot the Remains
Thor was also bewildered, letting Xia Yu pat his face like he was coaxing a child, and obediently sat down in the chair.
"It was all your father's arrangement. Why did he throw the hammer next to you even when you were being exiled? Wasn't it because he hoped you would grow up someday? You will be a king, not a warrior. You can't just rely on your muscles." Xia Yu said with a look of lecturing a child.
"My father is really not dead?" Thor still couldn't quite believe it.
"I know you don't quite believe me yet, but Sif and the others will come to find you soon, and then you'll know if what I said is true or not," Xia Yu said.
He had already spotted the strutting, non-mainstream group of four on the street.
"Your friends are here, why don't you ask them?" Xia Yu said, then turned and left.
Xia Yu came out and called Coulson. The Destroyer was about to teleport down, so he needed to quickly evacuate the S.H.I.E.L.D.. personnel.
Coulson was very efficient. As soon as Xia Yu hung up the phone, the people in the town came out one after another and retreated to the outside of the town.
Thor and his group lived on the very edge of town, so when the Destroyer teleported over and a tornado-like cloud rolled in outside, not only Xia Yu could see it clearly, but Thor and the others inside the house could also see it clearly.
When everyone came out and saw that most of the people in the town had evacuated, they looked at Xia Yu in surprise. Jane Foster's friend Daisy looked at the distant sky and asked in astonishment, "Are there still people coming?"
"It's the Destroyer." Sif, with her sharp eyes, spotted it first.
After talking with Sif and the others, Thor understood what had happened and asked Xia Yu, "Who exactly are you? My father is in a deep sleep, how could he contact you?"
Xia Yu looked at the Destroyer slowly approaching from afar and said, "Once you regain your power, I will go to Asgard with you. You'll understand when you see your father. For now, focus on how to deal with this guy. This is your family's business; I'm just here to watch the show."
After saying that, Xia Yu glanced at Jane Foster and the other two, and continued, "Don't worry, I can take care of them. Don't worry, I can protect them."
Knowing that Thor had lost his divine powers, Sif and the others left Thor with Xia Yu and the others, while the four of them headed towards the Destroyer.
Xia Yu sighed inwardly. These four people combined might not even be able to defeat him, let alone the Destroyer. They were destined to be cannon fodder. And all of this was Odin's way of teaching his two unruly children a lesson. Don't be fooled by Odin's current slumber; as long as Thor is in any danger, he can immediately come out and take control of the situation.
You can tell from the scene in the movie where Thor and Loki are about to fall off the Bifrost, and Odin appears instantly. Moreover, Xia Yu suspects that Odin knows Loki definitely won't die.
Sure enough, the four of them went up and were quickly taken down one by one by the Destroyer.
Xia Yu didn't know what the four of them were thinking. If they wanted to protect Thor, shouldn't they have told Thor to run away while the four of them went up to hold off the Destroyer? Or did they think they could defeat the Destroyer?
Xia Yu recalled the information about the Destroyer in his mind:
Forged from a mysterious metal of Asgard and imbued with magic by Odin, making it more durable and virtually indestructible Uru Metal, its face-firing pulverizing beam can crush anything.
If that's the case, then Thor's final blow to the Destroyer was due to the wisp of Odin's spiritual power hidden inside the hammer.
While Xia Yu was brainstorming, Thor had already been sent flying dozens of meters away by the Destroyer's backhand slap. Xia Yu looked at the pose and realized it was so familiar; he thought he had slapped Thor in the same way just now.
Seeing Thor getting beaten up like this, Jane Foster quickly ran over. Then, a rumbling thunder and the sound of air being torn apart came from the distant sky. The Mjolnir, with its powerful aura as a divine weapon, soared into the air and flew rapidly toward them.
The artifact truly recognized its master. When Xia Yu summoned it that day, it didn't have this kind of style. Looking at its momentum today, Xia Yu even wanted to play some background music to cheer it on.
Mjolnir returned to its owner's hands, and Power of Thor returned to Thor body. His previous injuries were immediately wiped away, and he was covered in Thor's special armor and cape. Even his hairstyle became neat and tidy. Xia Yu was very impressed with this, as it was much better than his own one-click outfit change.
Looking at Sif and the others, their faces were filled with surprise and joy. Jane Foster's eyes were practically sparkling, and she had a proud expression on her face, as if to say, "I knew he wasn't lying to me. My boyfriend really is Thor."
"Just wait, when you see Thor from the Avengers: Endgame timeline, let's see if he can kill you with lightning," Xia Yu thought maliciously.
With the Mjolnir in hand, Thor felt invincible. He knocked down the Destroyer Thor a single blow, then soared into the sky, spinning the hammer and creating a massive tornado.
The Destroyer, who had just gotten up from the ground, was slowly lifted into the sky by the tornado and fired a shattering laser at Thor's face. However, Thor used a hammer strike that came down from the sky and instantly destroyed the Destroyer.
Then, amidst a cloud of dust, Thor emerged unharmed and slowly walked towards Jane Foster.
Xia Yu was waiting for his moment to shine, so he quickly stepped into the dust and used his ring to collect the scattered remains of the Destroyer on the ground.
Good things shouldn't be wasted; having Tony forge armor is a good idea.
