I don't know if it's because I got used to the Hulk Serum last time, or if my body has already undergone sufficient modifications.
This time, I drank this so-called Intermediate Super-Soldier Serum.
There was no significant pain in the body.
It only stung my whole body for a few minutes; compared to the pain last time, this time it felt like I'd been bitten by mosquitoes.
After drinking it, I felt that my body was more resilient than before, and my ability to withstand blows should have been greatly enhanced.
However, the changes in strength, speed, etc., are not significant. You can feel a certain increase, but it definitely does not exceed 10%.
On the contrary, I felt an indescribable change inside my body.
However, since it is said to have a divine body, it must have its unique and extraordinary abilities. Hopefully, it will be useful when it arrives in Asgard.
This divine body can bring me some unexpected benefits; otherwise, with just an Asgard body that hasn't awakened its divine power, I might as well continue down the path of the Hulk.
Of course, this is on the premise that increasing lifespan is not a consideration.
Anyway, I don't have any divine position or divine power.
Unlike Thor, who can unleash lightning with his bare hands after waking up.
The Level 3 Shop can only be unlocked after you accumulate more than 10,000 points, which seems like a long way off.
However, there is some good news: after the next mall upgrade, some items will be made available for the host to purchase and share with others.
The current products are only effective when used by Qin Xiao himself.
This did relieve Qin Xiao's worries. If he really did find several women in this world, he still needed to consider his lifespan. He couldn't possibly live for thousands of years while everyone around him died one by one, leaving him as a big, dumb guy. That wouldn't be very interesting. As for homosexuality? He already had a goddess-like fiancée, okay?
I survived the boring opening ceremony of the Stark Expo.
Qin Xiao was considering whether to find the big, dumb guy and torment him a bit. After all, a brat needs to be abused a little to grow up faster.
Suddenly, I received a call from Thor.
"Qin, I need your help. I want to find a job!"
The first sentence left Qin Xiao a little confused; why was he asking about finding a job right away?
"Okay, the job is fine, but tell me your reasons!"
Qin Xiao adopted a haughty demeanor and asked in the tone of an elder.
"I have no way to regain Mjolnir's approval for the time being, so I can only stay with Jane every day. But I am a man, and I can't rely on her to live every day. Do you understand what I mean?"
Thor spoke somewhat hesitantly.
"Is it because you eat too much that people are complaining?"
Qin Xiao laughed and teased.
"No, Jane is very good to me. I do eat a lot, but I mean Jane never asks me to do anything. However, I have to learn to support myself. Didn't you tell me that if I want to become a true God of Thunder, I must first learn to be an ordinary person?"
"I'm learning how to be a normal person—to work, earn money, take my girlfriend out to dinner, give her small gifts, and stuff like that. You understand what I mean, Qin? You'll help me, right?"
Goodness, you rambled on and on about all sorts of principles, but the real point was in the last sentence: take your girlfriend out to dinner and give her a small gift.
Indeed, the heir to the throne of Asgard should have some self-respect.
Actually, finding him a job wouldn't be bad. It would let him experience the life of an ordinary person, and when he faces Odin in the future, he could take more credit for it.
However, What If...? he were to be sent to work, and Loki were to send the Destroyer down again, innocent bystanders would inevitably be harmed.
Although Qin Xiao is not a saint, he cannot risk someone else's life for this reason.
After thinking it over, I decided it would be best to go there myself first.
In New Mexico, Black Widow was assigned another mission by Nick Fury.
Coulson is leading a group of scientists, frantically studying the hammer on the ground.
Moreover, it benefited from the research materials of Jian and his colleagues.
It is almost certain that the so-called Asgard and the Nine Realms are real.
They are somewhere in the universe, connecting the Nine Realms through subtle connections between spaces.
It's important to know that Jane and her team's research findings were based on scientific evidence.
It's definitely not just some legendary Northern Europe mythology.
This caused Coulson to become somewhat evasive whenever he saw Qin Xiao, remembering the bet about his hair.
Qin Xiao didn't mind; it was just a joke, and besides, he came here to take the big, clumsy guy out to broaden his horizons.
This would require some help from Coulson; otherwise, with the fake documents Jane and her team had paid a few hundred dollars to have made, any state trooper could easily spot them.
S.H.I.E.L.D..'s original plan was to keep Thor, Jane, and the others under control in this small town.
But when I think about the results of those research papers, if everything is true, then Thor is a ticking time bomb, and who knows when he might cause trouble.
With Qin Xiao by my side, it's actually safer.
Although Qin Xiao is sometimes synonymous with trouble, his strength speaks for itself.
"Now can you tell me what the 177A Bleecker Street is all about?"
After discussing Thor, Coulson brought up the topic back to the business card that had suddenly appeared.
After all, teleportation technology is quite terrifying. Whether it's for assassination or intelligence theft, S.H.I.E.L.D.. wants to control or manage it.
Qin Xiao certainly understood Coulson's thoughts.
"Let me give you a piece of advice: don't mess with them. They're an organization on Earth, and they have fighting power comparable to Odin All-Father. This time, they're mainly after that big oaf thing. In fact, their leader is friends with Odin."
Coulson was certainly not reassured by Qin Xiao's ambiguous answer, and said somewhat anxiously.
"That's teleportation, do you know what that means?"
"I know, I know you care about the world's safety, but believe me, buddy, they've been protecting the world for much longer than you have—longer still than a thousand years before the light bulb was invented, when they last elected their leader."
Patting the somewhat stunned Coulson on the shoulder to let him process this, Qin Xiao headed straight for Thor and the others.
"I've deposited $100,000 in here for your documents, passport, and bank cards from Earth. That should be enough for your expenses during this time on Earth."
Qin Xiao handed Thor a manila envelope.
"One hundred thousand US dollars? Why give me money? Just give me a job!"
It's clear that Thor's time with Jane these past few days hasn't been wasted; he's gained a basic understanding of money and some common sense about the place.
"An old friend of your father's on Earth entrusted me with taking care of you, so there's no need for you to look for a job. You are, after all, a prince. Come with me and experience the joys and sorrows of the people around you!"
"If you insist on talking about finding a job, then you can be my personal bodyguard. This is your first month's salary."
