Casket of Ancient Winters and Explosive Flames
"Come on, you can do it!" Loki took a deep breath, a glint of light flashing in his eyes as he looked at Mjolnir in front of him. He encouraged himself as he reached out and grabbed the handle of the Mjolnir. Robet and Kara, standing to the side, looked a little strange, mainly because Loki's words of encouragement had really put them in an awkward position.
"Hmm?" However, even with the encouragement he received earlier, Loki still failed. His hand gripped the handle of Mjolnir, but the Mjolnir did not react at all, just as it had when Johnny Storm and the others held Mjolnir.
"I don't believe it!" Loki saw that Mjolnir was not moving at all, and a trace of unwillingness flashed in his eyes. He then gritted his teeth and began to change his posture repeatedly, trying to find a different way to lift Mjolnir.
Unfortunately, no matter how Loki changed his posture, it made no difference; Mjolnir remained unmoved. Loki did not gain the Mjolnir's approval, and even his attempts to change his posture yielded the same result.
"Damn it! It still doesn't work?" Loki's eyes flashed with anger. He was now the All-Father of Asgard, yet he still couldn't gain the approval of Mjolnir. Did that mean he, the All-Father, was just a joke?
It's important to understand that Mjolnir is merely the crown prince's weapon. If Loki can't even control the crown prince's weapon, how can he possibly become a truly qualified Asgard All-Father?
"It failed as expected..." Kara looked at Loki standing there somewhat dejectedly, and couldn't help but shake her head, muttering to herself, "Speaking of which, is he Thor? He's not quite what I imagined. Wasn't Thor supposed to have been stripped of his divine powers and be just a mortal now? Why can he still turn invisible?"
"Hmm?" Upon hearing Kara's voice, Loki's expression changed drastically. He abruptly turned to Kara's direction, and two daggers instantly materialized in his hands, his expression cold and filled with murderous intent.
Loki hadn't expected to be discovered, which meant his embarrassing moment had been seen. To uphold the dignity of the Asgard All-Father, Kara and the others absolutely could not survive!
Loki had noticed Robet and the others before, but since they seemed to be talking about something and didn't touch Robet, Loki assumed they were a group of mortals Mjolnir had discovered Mjolnir and wanted to guard the place.
But now, Loki realized he was wrong. Robet and the others knew of Thor's existence; they couldn't possibly be ordinary people. And how could ordinary people see where he was? Even Heimdall, the famous Guardian of Asgard, with his eyes that could see through the Nine Realms, couldn't find him!
"Who are you? Why are you here?" Therefore, even though killing intent flashed in his heart, Loki did not let his guard down at all. He wanted to distract Robet and the others first.
"Holy crap? When did this guy show up? What's he doing? Stealing the hammer? But can he even lift it?" Johnny Storm was on the other side, heard the commotion and looked over. When he saw Loki, who seemed to have appeared out of nowhere, he couldn't help but ask a series of questions.
"Didn't you hear Kara say he failed? But how did he appear? I didn't sense anything just now. Could it be that he can become invisible like Susan?" Pietro, looking at the daggers in Loki's hands, raised an eyebrow and said, "By the way, what is he planning to do? Use daggers against Robet and Kara?"
"What are you doing? Ambushing me?" While Pietro and Johnny Storm were talking, a hint of impatience flashed in Kara's eyes. She looked at the open space beside her and asked in a deep voice, "I'll give you a chance. State your identity and purpose, and I might let you go..."
With a "whoosh!" Loki, who was stealthily moving forward, aimed his target at Kara, the woman who had just spoken and was closest to him. However, before he could reach Kara, he saw Kara looking at him impatiently and speaking. Loki's expression changed, and the dagger in his hand instantly stabbed towards Kara's body.
Loki didn't know how Kara could see him, but that didn't stop Loki from striking first. As for escaping, that was impossible. He was the All-Father of Asgard, how could he possibly run away? Even if the enemy outnumbered him!
However, the first step is to deal with Kara, who can see through his illusions, then Robet, whose hair is even more flowing than his, then kill Peter Parker, whose hair is standing on end, and eliminate Johnny Storm and the others who are chattering nearby. Then the matter can be concluded...
With a "snap!" sound, but unfortunately, Loki's beautiful thoughts were met with a cruel reality, just as cruel as his inability to lift Mjolnir. Before his dagger could even touch Kara's body, Kara grabbed his arm first.
Loki didn't even see Kara's actions clearly before he found his arm paralyzed. It felt just like when Thor grabbed his arm during their fight... No! The force he felt now was even stronger than Thor's before!
But how could that be? Even if Loki was extremely Envy of Thor, he had to admit that Thor was the strongest man in Asgard. The only one who could surpass Thor in pure strength, besides All-Father Odin, was probably no one else. This Kara was just a woman; how could she possibly be stronger Thor?
With a "whoosh!", thinking of this, Loki thrust out the dagger in his other hand. This time, Kara, who was already somewhat impatient, was completely enraged by Loki, and she directly punched Loki's dagger.
When Loki saw this scene, a hint of joy flashed in his eyes, but before the joy in Loki's eyes could fully solidify, he suddenly heard a "crack!" sound in his ear. Immediately afterwards, a terrifying force traveled up his arm, and his body flew backward uncontrollably. Even the joy in Loki's eyes had just turned into a smile on his face, and before it could bloom, it was replaced by pain.
Since Loki could remember, his body had never suffered such severe damage. Even a single punch from Kara was almost unbearable for him. If it weren't for the fact that his body was relatively strong and he wasn't a truly frail mage, he would probably have been blown to bits on the spot!
Even with his relatively strong physique, he still crashed heavily into the ground, carving a long trench in the earth. His entire body was buried deep in the soil, and the smile on his face vanished completely, replaced by an indescribable bewilderment...
Loki couldn't understand what he had just experienced. He was now the acting All-Father of Asgard, so why had he been sent flying by a woman, so badly injured, and in such a sorry state?
"How did he get to Kara from over there? Wasn't he just standing there before? He was standing there the whole time before he flew away..." Pietro looked at Loki who had been knocked away with a hint of confusion in his eyes. From his perspective, Loki had been standing in the same spot, looking like he was about to attack, and his body was even slowly walking towards Kara. But Kara had already punched Loki and sent him flying.
Moreover, as Kara sent Loki flying, the Loki who was approaching Kara also vanished instantly.
"It should be similar to the Afterimage Fist?" Peter Parker, who had witnessed Robet's Afterimage Fist before, Peter Parker uncertainly. He could sense that Loki's ability was somewhat different from the Afterimage Fist, but he couldn't figure out exactly what the difference was.
"It is indeed somewhat similar to the Afterimage Fist, but there are also some differences. The Afterimage Fist possesses the ability to appear real as illusory and illusory as real, but this illusion doesn't demonstrate that..." Robet nodded, looking in Loki's direction, and said softly, "Moreover, the Afterimage Fist isn't just a visual afterimage; it's a perfect afterimage in terms of both hearing and aura. However, while its illusions are quite good in terms of sight and hearing, it's unfortunately lacking in aura."
Of course, there is one crucial difference between the Afterimage Fist and Loki's illusions that Robet didn't mention: the essence of the Afterimage Fist is still the use of air and speed, while what Loki uses is magic. However, this difference is not noticeable to Peter Parker and the others.
"Hmm?" Just as Robet finished speaking, he raised an eyebrow in Loki's direction. At the same time, Kara also stared at Loki with an unfriendly expression, a hint of anger flashing in her eyes.
With a "whoosh!" Kara's figure vanished from the spot in an instant. It turned out that Loki, who was lying on the ground, had not been lying there obediently, but had once again cast an illusion. Even though it had been seen through twice, this was still Loki's signature move. If he didn't use this move, Loki didn't know how he could escape from here.
"Get back here!" Just as Loki left the underground and was about to slip away quietly, Kara appeared in front of Loki and kicked Loki, intending to send Loki flying back to Robet's side.
With a "whoosh!" Loki's expression changed drastically when he saw Kara see through his illusion once again. Loki gritted his teeth, made several hand gestures in an instant, and then a chill emanated from Loki body, while Loki face began to turn blue.
"Hmm?" Kara's reaction speed was already very fast, but since her attack was about to hit Loki, there was no space or opportunity to dodge. Her body was instantly enveloped by a cold current. Even her Steel Body felt cold under this cold current, and soon a layer of frost condensed on her body, turning her into an ice sculpture and stopping.
At this moment, one of Kara's ice sculpture's feet was only a fraction of a millimeter away from Loki's body. Loki breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this. He was glad that his casting speed was fast enough and had not slowed down at all because he was missing an arm. If he had been a moment slower, he would probably have been sent flying again and his body would have been severely injured!
Of course, Loki should be even more grateful that he brought out the Frost Giant Giants' Casket of Ancient Winters. If Loki had only relied on his own strength, it would have been impossible to freeze Kara with the undeveloped Frost Giant bloodline.
However, the Casket of Ancient Winters Casket of Ancient Winters is different. Its full power is enough to freeze the entire Earth. Even if Kara is very powerful, freezing her temporarily is no problem!
It must be said that Loki does indeed have his extraordinary talents. Apart from Mjolnir, which he cannot accept, he can use the power contained in any other weapon that falls into Loki hands, whether it is the Casket of Ancient Winters or the Gungnir.
Even for ordinary Frost Giant, using the Casket of Ancient Winters is difficult, let alone wielding the Asgard All-Father's Gungnir. Thor wielded the Spear Gungnir Gungnir as a child, but in Thor hands, it was no different from a fire poker. In particular, the Gungnir looked like a golden fire poker, its tip said to have been worn down during a fierce battle...
"Huh?! You're asking for death!" Just as Loki breathed a sigh of relief, Robet on the other side also didn't expect Loki to have such a trump card, even freezing Kara. A flash of anger appeared in Robet's eyes, and his figure instantly disappeared from the spot.
"Not good!" Loki, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly felt the hairs on his body stand on end. Without any hesitation, the Casket of Ancient Winters in his hand once again released a terrifying cold current.
"Ice! I call you Ice!" When he saw a powerful cold current surging from the Casket of Ancient Winters, Robet couldn't help but roar. A terrifying Explosive Flames erupted from Robet's fist, which made Johnny Storm was far away, gleam with excitement. He was already imagining what it would be like to have such a powerful Explosive Flames Robet.
"Boom!" A terrifying explosion erupted between the Casket of Ancient Winters and Robet, but Robet's body did not move back at all, while the Casket of Ancient Winters and Loki were sent flying backward together.
The Casket of Ancient Winters is indeed very powerful, but Loki cannot unleash all the power within Casket of Ancient Winters. Moreover, Robet's Explosive Flames are also extremely powerful. Even though their destructive Ki Blast is not as strong as a pure ki blast, the extreme high temperature of the Explosive Flames is enough to completely evaporate all the cold air!
"Pfft!" In mid-air, Loki spat out a mouthful of blood. When using the Casket of Ancient Winters, Loki inevitably used the power of the Frost Giant. Fire was Loki's most hated element, but the extremely high-temperature Explosive Flames not only destroyed the cold current surging from the Casket of Ancient Winters, but also instantly burned Loki's body to a crisp. Now, Loki had successfully transformed from an Avatar into that...
