"This is the power of time!"
Looking at Loki, who on the screen looked as if a "slow down button" had been pressed on him, Ancient One's expression became serious for the first time.
She truly did not expect that, besides herself who possessed the Time Stone, there was someone else who had the power to control time!
And the most unbelievable thing was that the master of this power was actually only an ordinary leader of soldiers!
If even a small pawn under him was already so powerful, then what kind of figure must the leader of the "Time Variance Authority" be?
[Wanda Maximoff: Hahahaha, that Loki's face is swollen, it looks so funny. ^_^]
[Wanda Maximoff: Ah, it turns out barrage is used this way.]
[Thor: Little girl, you must watch your words, know that my brother is a god.]
[Wanda Maximoff: Oh, what can you do if I do not watch my words? Seal my mouth like you did to your brother?]
[Thor: ...I hate people. (ー_ー)]
Seeing Wanda's barrage on the screen, Loki did not even pay attention to it.
At this moment, his mood was full of irritability and depression.
How did this happen?
Is my future always this miserable?
I, the god of deception of Asgard! If I just cannot defeat Thanos, that is still fine, but how could I fall to the level of being handled by some unknown third-rate extra?
["Now you are at 1/16 speed."]
[The black woman took out a collar and slowly placed it around Loki's neck.]
["But the pain happens in real time."]
[Time around Loki suddenly returned to normal, and he looked as if he had gone limp in the desert from excessive pain, and even could not stand up.]
["Reset the timeline."]
[Several soldiers of the Time Variance Authority straightened Loki up, the black woman bent down to pick up the Tesseract, and someone placed a strange device on the ground.]
[Loki's face was full of astonishment, and two soldiers held him as he entered the portal.]
[Immediately afterward, they entered a different space, which looked somewhat like the reception of a company.]
[At that moment, one man was pushed inside by another soldier.]
["My dad is on the board of Goldman Sachs. As soon as I make a call, your job will be finished..."]
[Loki looked around and seemed to have found an opportunity, so he hurriedly ran away.]
[And the black woman beside him did not even chase him.]
[After watching Loki run away, she stretched out her hand, took out a small device, and pressed a button.]
["Huh!"]
[Loki was instantly teleported back to the same place. He looked back in astonishment, unwilling to give up, and wanted to continue running.]
[A mocking smile appeared on the black woman's face, and she pressed the button again.]
["Huh!"]
[Loki was teleported back again!]
"This...?"
[Loki's face was shocked, and he stretched out his hand to grab the collar around his neck, as if he had found the core of the problem.]
[But he could not do anything at all, only being pushed into the elevator by the black woman.]
[In the elevator, there was a strange robot with four mechanical claws and a small screen on its face.]
[Seeing the robot's claws reaching toward his body, Loki pushed them away with one hand.]
["Don't even think about it, this is the finest Asgardian leather."]
[╥﹏╥]
[A very sad expression appeared on the robot's screen. It raised the flashlight on another mechanical claw and aimed it at Loki.]
[Stand still, do not move.]
[Loki had not even reacted yet, and a strange light was fired from the flashlight, causing all his clothes to disintegrate.]
"Oops!"
In the live broadcast of the alien world, Wanda let out a soft scream and covered her eyes with her hand, as if she had seen something dirty.
"Hey, human child, your behavior is too impolite!"
Loki turned his head and shouted, but the expression on his face was also extremely ugly.
The situation in the future was really getting worse and worse.
Could it be... could there be no end to this kind of humiliation?
[Then Loki was forced to change into a prison uniform. He also signed a document and finally entered the waiting room.]
[As soon as Loki entered the hall, the soldier beside him reminded him:]
["Please take a ticket."]
["Ticket? There are only the two of us here."]
[The soldier's tone instantly became serious.]
["Please take one-one-ticket!"]
[Loki gritted his teeth, walked to the ticket machine with a dissatisfied expression, and pulled out one ticket.]
[But after taking only a few steps, Loki seemed to no longer be able to control his emotions, so he spread his hands and shouted:]
["This is a mistake, I should not be here!"]
[At that moment, a strange sound echoed in the hall.]
[Hello, you may be thinking: "This is a mistake, I should not be here."]
["What?"]
[Loki turned his head to look and saw several screens on the wall of the hall, which began showing images at the same time.]
[A round cartoon character smiled on the screen and said:]
["Welcome to the Time Variance Authority, I am Miss Minutes."]
["My duty is to help you understand some things before you go to trial."]
[An endless sea of stars appeared on the screen, and then a flash of lightning pierced through all the chaos!]
["Long ago, there was a multiversal war..."]
"Multi-universe!!!"
Hearing this term, Ancient One's pupils instantly contracted, and her attention was instantly raised to the peak.
At the same time, Odin of Asgard took a deep breath.
If... this mysterious Time Variance Authority really involved the multi-universe, then that was no joke!
