Erik Selvig!
A physicist.
Ever since Lake had someone throw Erik and Jane Foster out after retrieving the Tesseract, the Red Queen had been keeping an eye on them.
Lake had no use for Erik at the moment. When the need arose, he could simply pull Erik over directly.
As for Jane Foster?
Heh.
Lake did not care about her in the slightest.
However, he had heard the Red Queen mention last time that after Erik and Jane Foster left the Tesseract research base, Erik had been fine. Foster, on the other hand, had angrily declared that she would find Thor and demand an explanation.
After all, when Thor left, S.H.I.E.L.D. had promised him that they would take good care of Foster and satisfy all her needs.
And the result?
The moment Thor left, it was as if the tea had gone cold.
At least, that was how it had been for Foster. Erik, who was beside her, had tried to dissuade her a few times. After all, Erik was an old hand at life. Unfortunately, Foster had not listened. Instead, she had parted ways with Erik and run back to a small town in Texas on her own, seemingly convinced that if Thor descended once more, he would definitely return to the old place.
That small town was no longer the town it had once been. After Thor and the Destroyer had fought there, the town's already sparse population had become even sparser.

Throughout history, women like Xia Yuhe had never been worthy of
