Chapter 197 Old Loki (Part Two and Part One)

There was a sudden movement, and when Qin Xiao asked who it was, several people quickly rushed towards the source of the sound.

In a pile of rusty metal that seems to have lost its life.

A stooped old man was huddled between two metal plates. It looked like a tent was built with metal plates.

There was also a cup made of unknown material on the ground. There were some water stains on the side. It seemed that he wanted to drink from the cup just now, but he was too weak to even pick up the cup.

"Who are you?"

Qin Xiao did not extend a helping hand directly, but asked coldly and condescendingly.

The old man struggled to open his cloudy eyes and glanced at Qin Xiao curiously.

After taking a few deep breaths, I finally had the strength to speak.

"Finally see a living person again, and it seems you are not one of us, great, I hate seeing a man everyone calls Loki, even a crocodile!"

"Are you Loki?"

Qin Xiao squatted down. The aura on the old man's body was frighteningly weak.

At first, Qin Xiao thought that the old man was so weak because of food or water problems, but now it seems that is not the case. The power in his body is almost exhausted, and all the organs in his body have almost completely lost their vitality.

"Are you Loki, or one of them?"

After making sure that there was no threat to him, Qin Xiao took out some water and fed the old man a few mouthfuls. After thinking about it, he took out a cup of hot chocolate and inserted a straw into his mouth.

After drinking a few sips of water, the older version of Loki looked a little better. He picked up the chocolate and drank it in a few sips without ceremony.

"I feel much better. I can finally drink something decent before I die. Damn Elios, I originally thought it would die in the hands of the two of them. Who knows, nothing has changed at all. This may be me The most costly thing I have ever done in my life.”

Old Loki temporarily regained a little vitality, and then muttered a few words to himself.

"Who are they? It sounds like you had a battle with that cloud, tell me!"

Seeing that old Loki was getting better, Qin Xiao took out another piece of soft bread and handed it to him.

"For the sake of this stuff!"

Old Loki took a bite of bread and muttered.

"I'd love to tell you these things, but are you sure we have time to talk slowly here?"

Old Loki pointed into the distance.

I don't know when, Elios has filled half of the sky and is rolling towards this side.

"Damn it!"

Qin Xiao glanced at old Luo Ji.

Regardless of whether he could bear it now, he reached out and picked him up.

A few ducked to where Groot was evolving.

He picked up the corpse of the Shiba Inu Thunder God from the ground. This corpse was now the little guy's flower pot. He picked it up and took the little guy away with him.

"Oh? Puppy Thor, it would be nice if he met him earlier. Let him see his crocodile brother. I have been here for so long and never knew there was a little Groot here. Can he absorb Thor's power? That's good too , Groot Thunder always looks better than Puppy Thor!”

Loki was talking nonchalantly, and Qin Xiao had no time to pay attention to him. Groot was surrounded by golden light, and there were thunder and lightning around him. He didn't know how long it would take.

Qin Xiao could only pick up the 'flowerpot' and headed towards the place where the two of them were hiding, including the dog and the tree.

Elios is huge and can swallow all energy. Normal physical attacks are ineffective. He looks very powerful.

But fortunately, its speed is not very fast, and it can easily distance itself by driving a car, let alone Qin Xiao's speed.

It was not very convenient to fly with two people in his arms, so Qin Xiao simply used brute force.

A big jump directly crossed the extremely long distance of one or two kilometers, heading towards where the two people were avoiding.

"Damn! The way you move reminds me of a big green guy!"

Old Loki's face was filled with memories, and he couldn't help but reach out and rub his nose.

"Now I'm starting to wonder about your identity. You actually still have the aura of Asgard in you. In my impression, there is no one who matches your appearance!"

"It seems that you have recovered well, but it is best to shut up now and wait until you are in a safe place, unless you think it is a good pleasure to have the wind poured into your mouth!"

In the sound of words, Qin Xiao moved away from the ruins of the city.

…

Little Groot's underground shelter.

The owner is using a Shiba Inu corpse as a lamp.

Qin Xiao placed old Luo Ji on a sofa, took out some food and drink, and the two of them started staring at each other.

"Don't you think you should say something? For example, what you said about your battle with that cloud?"

It was Qin Xiao who spoke first.

"I thought you wouldn't ask? You can also see that I don't have a few days left to live? Why don't you tell me about yourself first?"

Old Luoji dug out a bottle of wine from the pile of things Qin Xiao took out, took a sip and said.

Old Loki's body functions were almost on the verge of shutting down. Qin Xiao didn't care about any threats to him, so he briefly talked about his experience.

Of course, systems and time travel are not included here.

"You mean you are not being targeted by the Time Variation Administration? You must know that you are not in line with the setting of the sacred timeline."

Regarding this point, Qin Xiao himself couldn't figure out what was going on.

It's either because of the existence of the system or because of what happened inside the Time Variance Administration.

So, Qin Xiao just shrugged helplessly for this question.

"You changed a lot of things. Although I hid on a small planet after the New York War, I heard the story behind it. Malekith killed my mother. You changed everything. Thank you very much, although that Frigga is not the same mother who raised me."

Old Loki stood up and bowed slightly to Qin Xiao with extraordinary sincerity.

"Given your experience, I think the two Lokis who rushed into Elrios may have achieved their goals, or have completed their plans. The Time Variance Administration should have changed a lot."

Old Loki may feel that his battle was not in vain. He smiled with relief and began to tell Qin Xiao his story.

In his universe, he found a place to hide after the New York War.

He hid on a planet with few people for a long time. Because it did not have any impact on the sacred timeline, he lived a peaceful life on that planet.

Until one day, he finally couldn't help but want to go back to Asgard to take a look.

In the words of old Loki, he missed his brother, and he wanted to see if Thor was okay.

As a result, he was brought back by the Time Variance Administration just after leaving the planet.

He was directly judged and purified, and came to this ghost place.

I don’t know if it’s because they are the same person or because Loki is good at escaping, he met Loki from various universes here.

Some successfully ascended the throne of Asgard, some killed Thor, and even collected six infinite gems to unify the universe. They all deviated from the sacred timeline and were brought to this place to fend for themselves.

Because there are a constant flow of various substances from the outside world, they don’t have to worry about survival here. Except for a group of Lokis who split into several groups to fight internally, they just need to be careful of the swallowing of Elrios.

All the changes come from a Loki.

When it comes to this, Qin Xiao knows that this should be the one in Loki’s independent series.

It was also in Avengers 4 that the Avengers went back to the past to collect the six infinite gems. Among them, Loki escaped after the New York War because he accidentally got the Cosmic Cube.

The old Loki's story includes his own experiences and the stories told by the Loki.

(I will briefly introduce it here. If you are interested, go to Baidu to search for Loki's TV series and watch it.)

In short, a new Loki has come. Unlike the previous one, he is not satisfied with lingering on in this place.

He wants to overthrow the Time Variance Management, be with the female version of Loki, and understand everything.

In the end, the female version of Loki also came here. The female version of Loki has the ability to control other people's minds.

They decided to join forces to control Elios. They believed that the mastermind behind all this, the creator of the so-called Time Variance Management Bureau, the three time guardians, were hiding behind this red cloud.

They wanted to find them and kill them to end it all, let the entire universe develop naturally, and let everyone break free from their own destiny.

But the two of them underestimated Elios's power. The two of them together were not enough to control Elios' mind.

At the critical moment, the old Loki went and returned, using all his magic to transform the entire Asgard to let Elios swallow it, thereby relieving the pressure on the two Lokis.

Old Loki didn't know what happened to the two of them. He only knew that he tried his best, but was eventually devoured by Elrios.

When the vitality of his body was almost sucked dry by Elrios, Elrios suddenly retreated.

Old Loki survived, but his body was completely destroyed and the source of his power was completely damaged. In other words, he didn't have many days to live.

After waiting for a while without seeing the two Lokis come out, Old Loki struggled back to their shelter.

Originally thought that he could wait for the news of victory before dying, but who knew that Elrios would appear again in a few days.

Now Old Loki was deeply desperate. He wanted to die in the shelter with his past memories.

But he couldn't escape the instinct of his body. After exhausting the living materials, he still wanted to come out to find some food.

Who knew that he couldn't find any results after searching for several days, and he didn't even have the strength to go back.

He just built a place in the ruins and waited for death with the little water he collected, and then met Qin Xiao.

"I originally thought they had failed, but after listening to you, I think I was wrong. They must have succeeded, or changed something, otherwise your appearance would be inexplicable."

Old Loki grinned happily. He had been hiding all his life. In his own universe, he hid on a remote planet. He finally mustered up the courage to come out, but was caught by the so-called Time Variance Administration.

Then he was sent to this hellhole to continue hiding.

In the end, he chose to resist with others, or himself.

Although he knew that he was almost certain to die, he still wanted to make his life more colorful.

Now he knew that what he did with the determination to die did not seem to be in vain, and he felt happy from the bottom of his heart.

"That Loki told me that the Time Variance Administration is all lies. Everyone in the so-called administration has had their memories wiped and is controlled by others. Each of them is a puppet manipulated by others. Everything is destined at birth. What a ridiculous thing. In a sense, everyone who comes here is truly alive, isn't it?"

Old Loki laughed a few times, and then looked at Qin Xiao with expectant eyes.

In his life, he started to live under the arrangement of fate, and then avoided fate, but just hid in a place by himself. Later, he came here and never felt that he had really lived.

Seeing Qin Xiao, who did not live in fate, he really hoped to get some approval from here.

"That's right! Especially the battle you said with that cloud, it was much cooler than your invasion of New York with the Chitauri army!"

It takes a lot of courage to face Elrios. If Qin Xiao did not have the system to go, he was not sure if he would have the courage to confront Elrios head-on, so he sincerely praised Old Loki.

"I am Thor, the god of thunder, for the glory of the gods of the north!"

The two wanted to say something, but an electronic voice came from the side.

Little Groot, evolution is complete!

I got home at 9 o'clock again today, so I quickly wrote two chapters. There are no chapters, so you can just read them. I will see if I am busy tomorrow for the one I owe yesterday. If not, I will pay it back the day after tomorrow!
