Avengers Tower.
As Sif and the others arrived, a gaze from beyond the Universe fell upon them.
"Sif and The Warriors Three, successfully met with their princes Thor and Loki. Will this be Asgard's signal for a counterattack?"
In the sky, the Watcher suddenly stopped muttering to himself as a narrator, closing his mouth and observing silently.
He saw that Lucas was also there. At this point, the narration would no longer be narration, but a unilateral leak of information.
He was a Watcher with integrity, not Uatu.
He wouldn't do such a thing.
"Two billion."
Lucas withdrew his gaze, deep in thought.
Even the Watcher came to join the fun, the impact of this event might be very far-reaching.
"Heimdall."
Hearing of Heimdall's death in battle, Thor's eyes dimmed, and sadness appeared on his face as he comforted Sif, "My condolences, Sif."
Sif's gaze was firm, showing no sadness in her expression. "To die fighting bravely in defense of the kingdom, that is a warrior's glory. As his sister, I am proud of him. Thor, you don't need to comfort me."
"The immediate priority is to find a way to repel the combined forces of the Dark Elves, Angels, Frost Giants, and Fire Demons from the Four Realms."
Thor cheered up and asked, "Sif, did father say what Loki and I should do?"
Sif shook her head. "No. He merely ordered us to inform you and Loki of Asgard's attack. As for what to do, he said it's up to you to decide."
Thor frowned, turning his gaze to Loki.
Loki was better at thinking.
Loki pondered for a moment, then began to analyze the current situation, "The combined forces of the Dark Elves, Angels, Frost Giants, and Fire Demons from the Four Realms are pressing in, besieging Asgard."
"Although Asgard is strong, it's one nation against four, so we don't have an advantage in troop numbers."
"The Frost Giants and Fire Demons have reclaimed the casket of ancient winters and the Eternal Flame. Laufey and Surtur have grown much stronger."
"There are also the Dark Elf King, Sindr, and the Angel Queen."
"Father is old, and only you, Thor, and I have sufficient combat power. But mjolnir was shattered during the last battle against Cul. We also have no advantage in high-end combat power. Asgard alone cannot defeat them."
Thor said, "Brother, just tell me what to do. We all know that war is never about size. As long as the strategy is sound and the soldiers are united, it is not impossible to defeat the strong with the weak. In past years, we have done it countless times."
Fandral said, "Exactly. Loki, don't boost their morale and diminish our own."
Loki looked helpless, raising both hands to signal for them to let him finish. "We need to do two things: win over allies and forge a new weapon for Thor."
"Sif, Hogun, Fandral, Volstagg, you will go to Vanaheim. Stabilize the people and warn Vanaheim's forces to prevent surprise attacks from rebels."
"I will go to Alfheim to try and win over the Light Elves. At the very least, I will ensure they don't participate in the rebellion."
"Thor, you will go to Svartalfheim to see the Dwarf King Eitri and have him forge a new weapon for you."
Thor, Sif, and the others nodded, preparing to act immediately, but were stopped by Steve.
"Thor, Loki, if you need help, just ask. Last time in Manhattan, when you fought the hammer wielders, you helped the Avengers. This time, the Avengers will help you too."
Thor said, "Steve, I appreciate your kindness. But this is Asgard's battle, and it has nothing to do with you on Earth."
"Not necessarily."
Lucas suddenly spoke.
"A thousand years ago, the Frost Giants of Jotunheim tried to use the casket of ancient winters to turn Earth into another ice realm, but Odin stopped them. If Asgard falls, it's hard to guarantee they won't have that idea again."
Getting involved in the war between Asgard and the Four Realms was a sudden impulse for Lucas.
Firstly, Kamar-Taj has an alliance with Asgard.
Secondly, Lucas had a bit of a grudge with both the Frost Giants and the Dark Elves.
If Asgard fell, the Frost Giants might come looking for trouble with him.
The Dark Elves, however, would definitely come looking for trouble with him.
Compared to being provoked and unable to resist going on a killing spree, as a good person, Lucas believed that striking first to defeat the Four Realms' allied forces would be more conducive to controlling casualties.
"Also, I've been meaning to tell you, mjolnir can repair itself, it just needs..."
"What does it need?" Thor asked excitedly.
He had awakened the Thunder Power and his reliance on mjolnir had lessened,
But after a thousand years of companionship, to Thor, mjolnir was more than just a hammer.
It was family!
"Love and time." Lucas spoke nonsense with a straight face.
Anyway, in "Thor 4," mjolnir repaired itself, so he could just say whatever he wanted without fear of being proven wrong.
"Thor, you can think of mjolnir as a person. When it shattered, it was like being injured, and it needed time to recover from its wounds."
"However, even if its wounds heal, it will become a 'vegetable.' It needs love to awaken it."
"Love and time." Thor nodded seriously. "I understand."
...
S.W.O.R.D. Space Station.
"Officer Fury, a large number of spacecraft have been detected, their models very similar to the four recently added to the database." An agent said.
Nick Fury said, "Send a warning message, tell them to stop."
The Agent said, "Sent. No reply from the other side."
Nick Fury said, "They're not coming in peace. Notify Earth headquarters, prepare for battle."
...
"Mr. Stark, a large number of spacecraft have suddenly been detected in Earth's outer orbit. Their models are very similar to the four that pursued Sif and the others earlier, with a 97.8% probability of being from the same series."
Ultron's voice suddenly rang out, and as he spoke, he projected processed photos taken by S.W.O.R.D.
Everyone looked at each other, they hadn't expected that only a day later, the rebels would send pursuers again.
Sif said, "I'm sorry, everyone. We didn't mean to lead them to Earth."
Lucas resisted the urge to nervously touch his nose.
Looking at the scale of the fleet, he felt they weren't coming for Sif and her companions, but for him. More precisely, they were coming for the Aether he had taken.
"Thor, Loki, let us fight side by side again."
Steve looked at the Asgardian group.
"The enemy has already arrived, there's no need for internal strife here."
Tony's expression was grave. He had been pondering the impact of the war between the Four Realms and Asgard on the surrounding Universe and Earth. It seemed Earth truly couldn't remain aloof.
Well, this was also a good opportunity to test the "Earth Combat Project Based on AI Ultron."
