"French philosopher Voltaire once said: I do not like to be conquered, but I will defend to the death the right of women to conquer men.
It seems that I, the dignified Thor, have already been conquered by this woman."
Thor rubbed his stepped-on foot, looking at Jane chatting with Wanda over there, and let out a silly chuckle.
On this side, Li Chuan looked at Thor's silly grinning appearance and couldn't help but recall a saying:
"You looked silly enough without smiling, but you look even sillier when you smile."
Actually, Thor wasn't stupid; it was just that his strength was perhaps too great compared to others, and he was used to rushing in, so he didn't like to use his brain.
Although influenced by Li Chuan, he had now fallen in love with philosophy, but this direction did not seem to be developing towards a calm and wise philosopher; instead, it had somewhat deviated from the intended style.
"Has Loki still not been found?"
After greeting everyone, Li Chuan used magic to light a fire while manipulating the skewers to begin grilling.
Thor, who was leaning to the side with a can of beer waiting to eat, replied helplessly:
"No, Coulson and the others helped use that satellite, but they didn't find him. I don't know where he is hiding. I plan to return to Asgard in a while to see if Heimdall can find him."
Ever since Loki ran away from home, there had been no news, as if he had evaporated from the face of the Earth.
"Is it possible that he has regained his magic abilities?"
Li Chuan flipped a large handful of charred, fragrant meat skewers, sprinkled them with prepared barbecue seasoning, and continued grilling.
Although Loki liked to stab people in the kidney with daggers, he was actually more of a mage. Having learned Asgard magic from Frigga since he was young, his illusions, invisibility, and other magic were quite formidable.
If Loki had really broken Odin's Seal and regained his magic, it would truly not be easy to find him.
"Unless he understands the true meaning of kindness, he cannot break the All-Father's Seal on his own. If he can truly change and break the seal, then I won't have to worry about him anymore."
Thor couldn't help but sigh.
Li Chuan nodded after listening. Loki wasn't essentially bad; he was just a bit jealous of his brother Thor and craved the recognition of his father, Odin. In reality, he cared deeply about his family.
Therefore, if he encountered something on Earth and suddenly had an epiphany, it was not impossible for him to break Odin's Seal.
Of course, there was another possibility: he had been taken away by the Time Variance Authority.
However, this possibility was extremely low, because if the Time Variance Authority were really going to intervene, they should have come to take him away.
After all, according to the rules of the Time Variance Authority, his appearance truly disrupted everything that was supposed to happen. He was absolutely a time variant and should be eliminated.
But he had been in this World for several years, and he hadn't seen a shadow of the Time Variance Authority at all.
Unless
"What's wrong?"
Seeing Li Chuan suddenly freeze while grilling, Thor couldn't help but ask.
Coming back to his senses, Li Chuan shook his head:
"It's nothing, I just thought of a few things."
In that instant just now, a bold guess had suddenly formed in his mind.
Perhaps, just perhaps, the Universe and timeline he was in was not the Sacred Timeline of the main Universe at all, but just a tiny branch of it.
One had to know that in this Marvel World, there were simply too many parallel Universes, multiverses, Universes with different timelines, and so on. They were uncountable, truly infinite.
He could only determine from his experience that he had arrived in the Marvel MCU film Universe, not the Marvel animated Universe, but he couldn't be sure that where he was now was definitely the main Universe of the Sacred Timeline.
Therefore, the reason the people from the Time Variance Authority hadn't appeared to catch him might be that the Sacred Timeline of the main Universe had already developed to Avengers: Endgame, and the Avengers members had used a time machine to return to the past.
And the 2012 Loki had also been caught by the Time Variance Authority because he took the Tesseract, eventually teaming up with the female Loki to take down Kang the Conqueror of the Time Variance Authority.
With Kang killed, countless branch timelines were created, and the Time Variance Authority collapsed. Naturally, no one was left to deal with a guy like him who had been resurrected from the dead and disrupted the entire plot.
Of course, all of this was just his guess, because in fact, he didn't know much about how the Time Variance Authority actually operated.
Anyway, the most important thing right now was to improve his strength. Only with sufficient strength could he face any problem.
With enough strength, whether it was the Time Variance Authority or Kang the Conqueror, as long as they dared to reach out their claws, he would chop them all off.
He didn't care about the situation in other Universes and timelines, but his own Universe and timeline could not have any problems. Even if it was just a branch timeline, once he existed in it, it would become the main timeline.
Just as Li Chuan was thinking about the Time Variance Authority, two sonic boom airwaves arrived from a distance. Li Chuan looked up and saw two gold-and-red Iron Man Suits flying rapidly towards them.
A moment later, both Iron Man Suits landed simultaneously, and Tony and Pepper stepped out of the suits.
"That was truly too exciting!"
Pepper patted her chest, looking like she was still shaken.
This was her first time wearing an Iron Man Suit. Because Tony was afraid that holding her while flying over would be too cold, he had her wear an Iron Man Suit as well.
However, she didn't know how to operate it, so Tony remote-controlled it the entire time.
"You came just in time. Freshly grilled lamb skewers, give them a try!"
Seeing Tony and Pepper, Li Chuan smiled and handed over a large handful of freshly grilled skewers.
"Smells so good. It just so happens I didn't eat breakfast."
Tony took the lamb skewers, wiggled his nose, and his eyes lit up immediately.
In the morning, he had been researching the new flight pod-style Iron Man Suit, and because he was too focused, he had forgotten to eat breakfast.
Then he received Li Chuan's call about the camping barbecue, so he put on the suit, brought Pepper, and rushed over directly. Now his stomach was growling loudly with hunger.
"What about mine?"
At this moment, Thor, who had been drooling while staring at the skewers, saw Li Chuan hand the large handful of skewers to Tony and immediately made a sour face.
"Oh, Point Break, you're here too. I'll share some with you."
Tony saw Thor and teasingly divided ten skewers and handed them over.
"Delicious. This texture reminds me of Asgardian Kabadilla meat."
Thor took them and quickly devoured two skewers, then asked while chewing:
"What does 'Point Break' mean?"
At this time, Jane and Wanda also walked over. After greeting Tony and Pepper, they looked Thor up and down together and laughed:
"You know, it actually really looks like him."
"It's a movie. You can watch it when you go back. The male lead in it has blond hair just like you."
Li Chuan explained with a smile.
"By the way, has Bambi still not been found?"
Tony asked Thor again about Loki.
When he first met Loki, because the helmet on Loki's head looked like antlers, he gave Loki the nickname Bambi.
As the group chatted and laughed, a helicopter appeared above their heads.
Subsequently, Captain America Steve Rogers jumped down from above with the Winter Soldier Bucky.
