The Death Knell

When the dimensional environment changed, Su Ming and his team were floating above Iron Man and Squirrel Girl. While eating snacks and drinking wine, they made bets on who would be the first to come here to join everyone.

The stakes are not big, just a pack of gummy bears in each hand, which Deathstroke gave to everyone, just for fun.

Deathstroke hosts, but does not participate in gambling. He simply derives pleasure from the actions of others.

As a pilot, Carol bets that Steve and Bucky will arrive first because she believes in the camaraderie of soldiers.

Although Steve was equally open to anyone and had no superpowers, his experience of fighting side by side with Iron Man in the Avengers was true. There must be some kind of conflict between the two sides, at least she thought so. . !

Of course, the kind of doomsday events that endanger the universe were almost handled by Deathstroke in the past, but this does not mean that the Avengers have done nothing. They have been dispatched countless times to deal with ordinary planet-level events.

For example, there is a Hydra madman somewhere who wants to detonate a nuclear bomb today, and tomorrow there are natives digging up resurrected ancient corpses from the ground, and so on.

Deathstroke will naturally not be notified of events that the adjutant doesn't like, but the event will not disappear automatically because no one is handling it. Someone always needs to deal with it.

This is the job of SHIELD and the Avengers. In the past days, Captain America and Iron Man worked very well together.

Thanos, who was thinking about the goddess of death and quietly waiting for the opportunity, also joined this gamble. Needless to say, he bet that Gamora and Nebula would find this place first because he was confident.

Yes, there is no other reason. He just feels that he is so domineering.

In the same way, Hela made a bet that Loki and the Queen would come first. According to her, that is:

"Although Loki is not as good as me, she is not bad either. As a spell caster, she should be able to play with one dimension.

In the end, the orange cat held by Carol struggled to make a bet. It retched and spit out half of the arm of an unknown creature as a bet, and then looked at the death knell helplessly.

"You want to place a bet too?" "Meow."

"Okay, then I will tell you the name of the contestant combination, and you will meow twice when you hear it. Do you understand?" Su Ming smiled and rubbed the orange cat's head so that it could join the game: "Then let's start. Yeah, listen up, Captain America, Loki, Gamora, Ant-Man, War Machine, Mantis..."

"Meow meow!"

When he said this, the orange cat barked and nodded repeatedly, indicating that he wanted to suppress the mantis girl.

It may not have seen other psychics, but it has seen the female Thor Daisy's dog, Cosmo, who can communicate directly with humans through brain waves, and it still remembers its special abilities.

"Okay, I'll give you a vote. The orange cat Qiu'er bets on Mantis Girl. The bet is... the left forelimb of a Cree." Su Ming picked up the bet, checked it, and then placed it among several bags of gummy candies: " When did you eat the Kree? Was it when I went to dismantle the Kree fleet? "

"Meow." The orange cat said that he couldn't remember clearly, then he raised his tail and crawled back into Carol's arms.

Originally, the bet had been established, and all that was left was to wait quietly to see who could come out on top first.

Obviously Tony and Doreen on the ground are also waiting for others to come and join them. It was now like a beacon, almost the only source of light in the darkness.

But at this moment, the dimension changed, and the black screen began to shake from the skyline, and rolled up like a rolling shutter door.

Mountains, forests, castles, oceans, all kinds of beautiful scenery suddenly appeared, and a burst of green light began to spread. These scenery then rose from the ground and spread in all directions in an instant.

The dilapidated supermarket and the dark curtain disappeared in the blink of an eye, but were replaced by golden walls and a rainbow-colored glow.

Tony and Squirrel Girl were no longer standing on the dark ground. As soon as they came to their senses, they discovered that their feet had been replaced by a rainbow bridge.

"It's an illusion of Asgard..." Hela's eyes widened. She usually always

Looking like he couldn't wake up, he was also shocked at this time: "What's wrong with Loki? Now without the support of the World Tree, how could she release this level of illusion, or even cover an entire dimension?"

For illusion magic, Hela can be said to have mastered all seven or six, but knows nothing about it. She can't even understand the principle of Loki's spellcasting and the source of energy.

"It is actually possible. You must know that many demon lords are also good at illusions. They will use false hopes, fabricated beauty, and empty visions to confuse humans."

The Supreme Mage Deathstroke was also a little emotional. The last time he saw Loki use a large-scale powerful illusion was when he fought against the old Loki:

"Not to mention anything else, Mephisto, the old Mo we met not long ago, really likes to make deals with Loki. So as long as we negotiate a condition, Loki can mobilize the power of hell to achieve an impossible goal. It is not difficult to create an illusion made of matter."

There is not much real matter in this dimension. At most, it is the supermarket just now, and a small number of black mud monsters living in various places in the dimension.

Generally speaking, the entire dimension is composed of various false illusions, which separate the team members, implement small plans, bring fear and loneliness to people, and spread suspicion.

This is a test of the human heart, which is always the most difficult to grasp.

Loki chose the method to draw out the bottom of the pot, which was to use the illusion he constructed to cover the enemy, just like putting a layer of blanket on top of the quilt.

In this way, because the people from the earth who enter here are all material beings, their existence will not change, so they are like "sifting" out of their original situation and being lifted to a new level.

Emerging with everyone in the bright new environment, there are also enemies in this dimension, but they are like chameleons that have left the branches, constantly twisting their bodies and changing colors, but they don’t know what they should look like. , to continue their lies.

Use lies to fight lies, haha. "Thanos laughed, it sounded like a cold snort. He looked into the distance, which was the direction where Gamora and Nebula were: "Sure enough, useless tools are trash wherever they go. They are better than It's a long way from Loki."

"Ah, it seems that the bet can't go on." Su Ming returned the gummies and the Cree arm to their original owners, raised his hand and rubbed his nose: "Now our friends can see each other, and the chameleon They have not yet adapted to the environment, resulting in complete exposure. If nothing happens, Loki will soon take over this dimension."

"What if something happens?" Carol took back her gummies, tore open the packaging bag with Captain America's face on it, and stuffed a translucent red bear into her mouth.

"Accident? If there is an unexpected visitor who wants to compete with Loki for control, then we can take action."

A lightsaber slowly floated out of Deathstroke's palm. He was ready and even hoped that a man in black robe would come over and take a look.
