"What use are you to me now?"
Since he couldn't move Thor's hammer and could only lie there, Loki decided to resort to verbal sparring.
"Did you hear that, brother? There's nothing you can do."
At this moment, Thor, upon hearing Loki's words, seemed to have thought of something and reached out to summon Mjolnir from Loki's body.
Just as Loki was wondering how Thor had taken Mjolnir from him, Thor simply started smashing it against the Bifrost.
Just as Loki said, Thor possessed immense strength; this single blow created numerous cracks in the Bifrost.
This same hammer blow also awakened Odin from his Odin's slumber.
Loki was stunned by Thor's enormous size; at this moment, the Bifrost in Thor's area was already beginning to crumble.
【"What are you doing?!"】
Loki looked at Thor and spoke, but Thor didn't answer Loki and continued hammering. This blow successfully shattered the outer shell of the Bifrost and penetrated its interior.
"Clap clap clap."
"It's not nice to say it like that, but Thor is a spendthrift."
Kazuma Sato clapped his hands as he looked at Thor and said, "Although I don't know exactly how much the Rainbow Bridge is worth in Asgard, it must be something extraordinary. Otherwise, why would there only be one Rainbow Bridge?"
Zhuge Cong suddenly spoke.
"If the Rainbow Bridge is damaged, it probably won't be easy to repair."
"Do you remember what Loki said to Thor after he was kidnapped from the plane in 'The Avengers'?"
"When Loki saw Thor, he said that Thor was sent to him by Odin using dark energy, not by the Bifrost."
"So, you mean that Thor's smash might have directly caused Asgard to lose the Bifrost, its most powerful weapon?"
Upon hearing Zhuge Cong's words, Hachiman Hikigaya also remembered.
"Well, it should be able to be fixed, but it will require a lot of materials and a long time."
Zhuge Cong nodded and said.
"If you destroy the Rainbow Bridge, you will never see your friends in Midgard again."
Seeing this, Loki immediately shouted, "If Thor were to destroy the Bifrost, not to mention anything else, my plan to destroy Jotunheim would be completely ruined!"
Thor didn't speak, but continued to answer Loki's question with the sound of his hammer striking.
This blow caused the Rainbow Bridge to crack, and Loki and Thor both knew that the bridge was about to collapse.
Loki scrambled to his feet, his eyes bloodshot, and charged at Thor, wielding his scepter. He couldn't bear to see his plans fall apart; if his plans failed, he would lose everything.
[The last chance to prove myself is gone.]
Loki lunged at Thor from behind, while Thor simultaneously unleashed his final strike towards the Bifrost.
[“Bang!”]
Thor acted faster, striking first before Loki could stab him. The massive explosion from the destruction of the Bifrost sent both Loki and Thor flying into the sky.
Without the Rainbow Bridge, its control hub is essentially useless, halting the destruction of Jotunheim.
Before Thor and Loki fell into the cosmic turbulence, Odin appeared at the edge of the Bifrost and pulled Thor back, while Thor held onto Loki's scepter.
Fortunately, the Rainbow Bridge wasn't completely destroyed; only a large section was damaged. Otherwise, the explosion from its complete destruction would have certainly affected the city of Asgard.
"I could have done it, Father."
"I could have done it."
"For you, for everyone."
Loki spoke upon seeing Odin, who looked at his youngest son with a complex expression.
"No, Loki."
Odin was silent for a moment, then slowly spoke, "Odin knows what Loki did while I was in Odin's Slumber."
Loki, upon hearing Odin's words, felt utterly despondent, and his hand, gripping the scepter, began to slowly slip away.
"No, Loki, no, Loki, Loki!"
Thor, sensing Loki's intentions, shouted, "Loki's actions are tantamount to suicide! Thor doesn't want to see Loki do anything foolish!"
The next second, Loki, with a cold expression, released his grip on the scepter and fell into space.
【"No!!!"】
Thor cried out in anguish as he watched Loki fall into space. The next second, Loki's figure also vanished into the cosmic turbulence. Although Loki had done many bad things, in Thor's heart, Loki would always be his brother.
【"No."】
Odin watched Loki disappear and said, "I didn't expect Loki to do this; I didn't expect Loki to give up because of this."
[On Earth, without the Rainbow Bridge's output to Jotunheim, the dark clouds that had shrouded the Earth dissipated, restoring the original blue sky and white clouds.]
439: Light Yagami: It seems there's a huge shadow looming over all of this.
"Loki's Dao heart is shattered."
"Odin's words to him completely shattered Loki's heart and indirectly negated Loki's actions."
Zhuge Cong looked at Loki, who had lost all hope and disappeared into the cosmic turbulence, and said...
"But wasn't Odin's answer correct?"
"Look, Loki says it's for you, for everyone, but isn't he doing all this for himself?"
"In order to seize the throne of Asgard that he desired."
Kazuma Sato said that, in his view, Loki did everything for his own benefit, which is completely different from what he said.
“Loki feels more like a sulking child.”
"Because I felt that my parents treated me and my brother unfairly."
Hachiman Hikigaya also made connections to Loki's last words to Odin.
Hachiman Hikigaya felt that although Loki did these things for his own sake, he also had the desire to prove himself. Therefore, Hachiman Hikigaya believed that Odin's teaching was inadequate.
Perhaps if Odin had told Loki about his origins and plans from the beginning, things would have taken a different turn.
Loki won't break down and do a series of things.
Maybe it really is possible to do what Odin said at the beginning.
Thor ruled Asgard, and Loki ruled Jotunheim. Through their relationship, the two races reached a complete consensus on peace.
【"it's over."】
[After the dark clouds dispersed, the setting sun shone brightly in the twilight. Nariyuki, watching the clouds fade and feeling the warm breeze on his face, spoke.]
"Looks like Thor's been held up by something again."
[Yuiga Nariyuki said that Thor said he would take them to Asgard, and Yuiga Nariyuki was very happy about that. Even if he didn't take them, Yuiga Nariyuki wouldn't blame Thor.]
[Yoga Nariyuki felt that something must have been holding Thor back, after all, he knew Thor's personality.]
After regaining Thor's powers, they reclaimed what belonged to them from S.H.I.E.L.D.
The trio of Yuiga Nariyuki also returned to their car.
There was also a feast in Asgard to celebrate Odin's awakening from his slumber and Thor's return to Asgard with the power of thunder.
"Then, I yelled and flew into the Destroyer Armor, taking it down."
[Volstagg was also boasting about his performance, but actually, he was the one who got taken down.]
"Does that mean falling flat on your face?"
Hogan also directly undermined Vostagg's efforts.
"In fact, falling down is just a tactic to confuse the destroyer."
Thor smiled as he watched Volstagg boasting, then walked outside. Sif, seeing Thor's expression, knew he must be preoccupied.
Frigga was also watching Thor. Seeing that he wasn't eating and drinking heartily and laughing with everyone as usual at the dinner table, she knew that Thor had something on his mind.
[It's most likely related to Loki, and perhaps also his friends in Midgard, because the Rainbow Bridge was destroyed, and he can't return to Midgard.]
"Your Majesty, I am deeply saddened by what happened to your son."
"How is he?"
"He is mourning his brother."
"Also, he misses his friends in Midgard."
"Those three mortals."
[Frigga said, in her suicide attempt, that she was also very saddened by what happened to Loki.]
Thor walked alone out of the victory celebration, then strolled down the twilight corridor to Odin's side.
"You will be a wise ruler."
After a moment, Odin, gazing into the distance, slowly spoke.
