The Skrull and Kree Empire people had been injured, but their movements had not been restricted. Thor seemed not to care that they were gathering intelligence here. And from what they could currently see of Asgard, the situation was exceedingly strange.
Asgard had not mobilized its troops.
That was the strangest part. In the eyes of the Three Great Empires, humans getting hurt was a minor matter; Asgard losing face was the real issue.
They knew humans were dangerous, but more than a dozen people had died on the other side while their sole casualty had not even died. Looking at the exchange ratio, this was an overwhelming victory, the kind of achievement they could brag about in any corner of the galaxy. Even if she was Magneto's daughter, at most Magneto himself would seek revenge. Did Earth really intend to go to war with all Three Great Empires at once?
As had been said before, even Asgard had no way of confronting the Three Great Empires head-on. What gave Earth the right? You had many powerful individuals, sure, but against the nearly endless forces of the Three Great Empires, who would hold the front lines? If they could not hold them, then what use was a decapitation strategy?
Therefore, in the eyes of the Three Great Empires, Asgard remained the primary threat. Such a major incident had happened on their territory, yet the Shi'ar Empire not only refused to apologize but declared war instead. That was practically taking a dump on the God King's neck. Who could tolerate that?
Yet Asgard had now fallen into an eerie calm. There were no troop movements, no mobilization rallies, and not even the starships had been activated. Thor had not shown himself anywhere in space, either. What were those brutes plotting?
