Upon hearing Rogers’ words, Lin Rui glanced at Thor who stood beside him. “Well, he is indeed from Asgard. Haven’t you also detected the Bifrost’s location?”
“In that case, he should come with us for now. SHIELD is quite hospitable to unfriendly extraterrestrial visitors like him.” Upon Lin Rui’s response, Rogers turned his attention to Loki on the ground and stated.
“Um… well…” Hearing Rogers’ two statements, Lin Rui didn’t know how to respond.
In theory, Loki had committed a crime on Earth, and among them, SHIELD was the most qualified to detain him. However, Loki’s status was quite special; he couldn’t be confined by SHIELD just because they wanted to. Furthermore, Lin Rui hadn’t really informed Rogers about Loki’s background and identity.
“No, you can’t take Loki away. He can only go with me or return to Asgard!” Just as Lin Rui felt embarrassed by Rogers’ words, Thor, who had been observing Loki beside him, suddenly stepped forward and spoke with a very serious and resolute tone.
With his words spoken, Thor moved forward, standing in front of Loki like a mountain, shielding him from any difficulties.
Seeing Thor’s actions and hearing his words, Rogers and the others were surprised. Although they knew that the person before them also hailed from Asgard, Thor had conducted himself well on Earth. Additionally, Asgard was a planet of life, so were these two men acquaintances?
However, even if Thor had behaved admirably on Earth and had gained respect from Rogers and his team, it didn’t mean he could intervene in this matter. Therefore, despite their surprise at Thor’s words, Rogers and his team didn’t plan to yield. Perhaps, Thor was only speaking out because they were both from Asgard.
“Well… this guy is Thor’s brother, although they don’t seem alike at all.” Observing the expressions of surprise on Rogers and his team and noting Thor’s demeanor, Lin Rui explained at the right moment.
“Exactly! He’s my brother and also Asgard’s Second Prince! You can’t take him!” Following Lin Rui’s explanation, Thor added.
Hearing Lin Rui’s explanation and Thor’s words, Rogers and his surrounding team were even more astonished. They hadn’t expected that this troublemaker, who caused problems and even injured Jack, Hawkeye, and a specialized squad along with Iron Man’s team, had an actual connection to Thor, and he was another prince of Asgard.
“Even if he’s Thor’s brother and Asgard’s prince, he still needs to come with us. This is Earth, not Asgard, and he needs to abide by Earth’s rules.” While Rogers found Loki’s background and identity surprising, Captain Rogers didn’t yield.
For Rogers, in situations involving extraterrestrial events, they represented the entirety of Earth. After all, Earth seemed to be the only one in contact with extraterrestrial civilizations, and SHIELD wouldn’t mind standing in for Lin Rui and his group.
“Well…” Seeing Rogers’ stance, Lin Rui wasn’t sure how to respond.
Lin Rui’s desire was certainly to make Loki suffer a bit, but he also understood that Loki was cunning, and SHIELD might not be able to hold him. Furthermore, Thor was now standing in their way, and Lin Rui couldn’t just watch as conflicts arose between Thor and Rogers.
“How about…”
“I’ve said it! You can’t take Loki!” Before Lin Rui could say anything else, Thor emphasized his stance once again, in a domineering manner.
As he spoke, Thor took a step forward, moving right in front of Hulk. Crackling sounds filled the air. Recognizing that the giant Hulk was the most powerful among these people, electric arcs started to emerge from Thor’s body.
However, just as Thor took a step forward and sparks began to arc from his body, Hulk, standing before him, impatiently swatted his hand. With a loud thud, Thor, who had just positioned himself in front of Loki, was sent flying at an angle through the air. Thin arcs of pale blue electricity flickered in the air as he flew.
“Annoying!” After swatting Thor away with a slap, Hulk retrieved his hand and muttered in annoyance.
Lin Rui’s group: “…”
That was extremely violent!
“Alright, now there’s no one blocking us. Falcon, shackle him up, we’ll take him back to headquarters for custody, activating the highest-level prison.” After a brief pause, Captain Rogers continued, addressing Falcon.
“Understood, Captain,” Falcon replied, then stowed away his weapons and retrieved a specialized pair of handcuffs from his waist, ready to bend down and shackle Loki.
Humming!
However, just as Falcon was about to shackle the immobile Loki, a surge of magical energy suddenly emerged from nearby. Then, a familiar magic Spatial Teleportation portal appeared by their side. Subsequently, several sorcerers emerged from it, led by Wong.

With a soft sound, as the sorcerers emerged from the Magic portal, Falcon managed to swiftly and effectively shackle Loki.
“Wong?! Why are you guys here? Weren’t you completely indifferent to our matters before? What’s the meaning of appearing here now?” As Wong and his group approached, Jack, who had been standing quietly by Lin Rui’s side without speaking, suddenly stepped forward to confront Wong, questioning him.
“We… we won’t discuss that matter anymore. It’s in the past. We’re here this time because of him— Loki, Asgard’s second prince.” Upon hearing Jack’s inquiry, Wong frowned slightly, avoiding an explanation and gesturing toward the shackled Loki.
“Because of Loki?” Hearing Wong’s response, Lin Rui’s eyes blinked as he muttered to himself.
Lin Rui wasn’t aware of the meeting between the Ancient One, Odin, and Loki’s visit to Earth and his interaction with the Ancient One. Similarly, Thor hadn’t been in contact with Earth’s sorcerers since his arrival on Earth. Thus, seeing Loki captured and Wong’s immediate appearance surprised Lin Rui.
“Jack? Who are they…?” Seeing the conversation between Jack and Wong, Rogers couldn’t help but ask. Because of Wong’s attitude, it seemed like they didn’t regard him and his team highly.
“Captain Rogers, they are Earth’s sorcerers, and they’ve been dwelling in the Himalayas.” Upon Rogers’ inquiry, Jack answered politely.
“Captain America, Mr. Steve Rogers, we need to take Loki away, and we hope that you won’t make the situation hard for us.” After Jack’s response, Wong smiled at Rogers and spoke.
