Loki, terrified by Adam's power, fled the Asgard. Sensing his brother Thor quickly pursuing him, he first released an illusion to mislead Thor, then successfully arrived at the Bifrost Bridge control room and inserted the Eternal Spear.
However, this time it wasn't for teleportation. Instead, he controlled the Bifrost Bridge to concentrate all its energy, intending to blast Jotunheim in one go, directly destroying that Planet and annihilating countless Frost Giants.
"Loki, what are you doing?"
Thor, who had seen through Loki's illusion and rushed back, looked at Loki gathering the Bifrost Bridge's energy, a shocked expression on his face.
He had always thought Loki just liked playing pranks, and even this time was no different; Hela was merely part of his prank, as he himself was currently unharmed.
But Loki's actions now made him waver internally.
"What am I doing? Of course, I'm going to exterminate Jotunheim! Destroy their World with a single blast from the Bifrost Bridge!"
Loki turned to look at Thor.
Thor's face immediately showed an expression of disbelief.
"Why are you doing this? Stop it immediately! If you truly want the throne, I can give it to you. There's no need to go this far."
Even before this, he had never considered destroying a Planet or killing all the Frost Giants.
The Frost Giants infiltrating the Asgard was a provocation to the Asgard. He believed they should wage war to severely punish the Frost Giant race and make them behave.
But Loki's current actions were not just a punishment; they were a true Carnage, an act of genocide that spared no civilians, elderly, women, or children. This was something he could not tolerate.
He was a warrior, not a butcher.
"Do you think I truly care for that throne, Thor? Father's eyes have always been only on you, and the people of the Asgard also only see you. I am always the one overlooked.
I want to prove to everyone that I, Loki, am more suitable to be king than you, Thor, and more worthy of respect and importance.
The Bifrost Bridge has been activated; no one can stop it. You just wait for the result, or don't blame me for being impolite to you!"
Loki, with a look of triumph, pulled out the Eternal Spear and aimed it at Thor.
Thor's face also showed an angry expression. He grabbed Mjolnir and charged forward, intending to teach his brother a good lesson, then figure out how to shut down the Bifrost Bridge.
"Loki, you've gone too far this time!"
And so, the two went back and forth, fighting on the Bifrost Bridge.
In terms of raw strength, Loki was naturally no match for Thor, but Loki was skilled in various magic and very cunning. He didn't confront Thor head-on, instead using magic to harass him and prevent Thor from disrupting the Bifrost Bridge's energy accumulation.
"Thor, you've lost. The energy has already been fully gathered. Nothing you do now will matter."
Loki watched as the Bifrost Bridge control room finally gathered enough energy and began to aim towards Jotunheim, preparing to fire. He immediately burst into triumphant laughter.
Seeing this, Thor gritted his teeth, then grabbed Mjolnir and smashed it towards the Bifrost Bridge.
"Who says it can't be stopped? If I smash the Bifrost Bridge, all of this can be stopped."
Loki's face also changed drastically at this sight:
"Thor, what are you doing? Without the Bifrost Bridge, the Asgard army won't be able to enter the other Realms. Don't you know what the consequences will be?"
Because of the Asgard's strength, and because the Asgard's Bifrost Bridge could instantly transport the Asgard's army to any part of the Nine Realms.
That is why peace is maintained in the Nine Realms now.
If the Bifrost Bridge were gone, then the hidden forces in the Nine Realms would surely stir, and the Nine Realms would once again enter the great war period of thousands of years ago.
How could Thor, who had led armies in great battles for years, not know these things? It was just that he had no choice now.
Fortunately, just as his Mjolnir was about to smash into the Bifrost Bridge, a hand stopped him.
"No need to destroy the Bifrost Bridge. I will stop it from attacking Jotunheim. You should have a good talk with your brother again."
The newcomer was none other than Adam, who had been observing the situation.
He flashed, appearing directly in front of the Bifrost Bridge's energy emitter, using his body to block the energy blast from the Bifrost Bridge.
"Adam!"
"No way!"
Thor and Loki were both stunned at the sight.
Thor was worried about Adam's safety, while Loki was simply terrified by Adam's actions.
One must know that was an energy attack capable of blowing up an entire Planet in one hit. To block it directly with one's body? Even Father Odin wouldn't dare say he could withstand it!
"Disperse!"
Facing the massive energy beam directly aimed at him, Adam raised his right hand and simply pressed down, pushing the energy beam down, then with a slight flick, he actually dispersed all the energy.
This scene immediately left Thor and Loki dumbfounded. Even Odin, who had just finished recuperating and awakened his divine power, was startled.
In fact, for the current Adam, destructive energy like that fired by the Bifrost Bridge was the easiest to deal with.
Normally, destroying a Planet would require about ten to twenty thousand units of combat power. For a powerful Planet like Jotunheim, it would probably take seventy to eighty thousand units of combat power.
Plus, it wasn't fired at close range; it had to be launched from such a distant place as the Asgard. Considering the consumption along the way, the actual energy burst from the Bifrost Bridge was probably around a million units of combat power.
And what was Adam's base combat power now?
Even without transforming into a Super Saiyan, he possessed a terrifying four billion-plus combat power. Waving his hand to disperse a mere million units of combat power energy attack was simply too easy.
"How can this be? You're cheating!"
Seeing Adam effortlessly disperse the energy gathered by the Bifrost Bridge, Loki slumped onto the ground.
At this moment, a figure instantly appeared on the Bifrost Bridge, extending a hand and retrieving the Eternal Spear from Loki's hand.
"Father!"
Seeing the newcomer, Thor and Loki simultaneously cried out.
Odin nodded:
"Thor, take Loki back and confine him to his room. He is not to come out without my command."
Upon hearing this, Thor immediately stepped forward and grabbed Loki. This time, Loki did not resist, though his face was filled with despondency.
"Loki, no matter what your Bloodline is, you will always be my child. You will also become a King, just like Thor, but not the King of the Asgard."
Seeing Loki being led away by Thor, Odin sighed, then composed himself and looked at Adam.
"Mr. Adam, thank you for your help to the Asgard."
This statement was not mere politeness.
If not for Adam's intervention, setting aside other matters, at least the Bifrost Bridge might not have been saved. If the Nine Realms had fallen into chaos, there's no telling how many people would have died.
"Your Majesty is too kind. Thor and I are friends. As long as you don't blame me for unauthorized removal of Thor's seal and entering the Asgard, that's enough."
Odin's attitude was good, so Adam naturally returned the favor.
