Help?" Doctor Doom turned around, a little confused. "Didn't you already clear out this HYDRA research facility? And I've already agreed to give you all the information about HYDRA."
"No, no, no, I wasn't talking about that."
Li Chengfeng immediately waved his hand, indicating it had nothing to do with HYDRA.
Then he pointed his finger back, towards Loki in the cage.
Ever since Doctor Doom appeared, Loki had directly shrunk his neck, hiding in the corner like a quail.
Even his talkative, venomous tongue had completely subsided, turning him into a quiet, handsome man.
It was all because he had been captured alive by Doctor Doom.
Back then, it had been a comprehensive beatdown.
As one of the Nine Realms' most excellent sorcerers, he had been thoroughly thrashed.
He tried the same trick again, feigning weakness and then ambushing with a dagger, only to be met with another brutal beating.
It was only fortunate that he was an Asgardian, with good physical qualities.
Otherwise, that barrage of punches alone would have nearly killed him.
He could feel that even if the current Thor came, he would absolutely be no match for Doctor Doom.
And besides Doctor Doom in front of him, there was also a Big Guy who could casually punch him dozens of kilometers away.
Was this still the Midgard that his father said Asgard had conquered?
Even if his Old Man came personally, could he beat that Big Guy?
Thinking of this, Loki shivered.
Midgard was so scary; he missed his father, mother, and that brute of an older brother.
Indeed, the best way to make Little Rascals recognize reality is a brutal beating that radiates from their body to their worldview.
But Loki didn't expect that even after playing the grandson, the scoundrel Agent from the FBI still remembered him!
"Hey! What do you mean?! Didn't I already agree to sign a 200-year employment contract with you?"
"Oh, don't worry, I just don't believe you'll be bound by Earth's laws and morals, so I'm preparing some practical and useful methods."
Li Chengfeng's smile was kind and amiable, but in Loki's eyes, Li Chengfeng's annoyingness had skyrocketed past his brute of a brother!
At least his brute of a brother still had some love for him... right?
"200 years? Asgardian? Employment contract?"
A person with Doctor Doom's level of intelligence, brilliant to the extreme, understood what Li Chengfeng wanted him to help with just from these two sentences of dialogue.
Doctor Doom simply spread his hand, and a scroll of parchment appeared out of thin air.
"I've placed a demonic contract on this; it's currently blank. As long as the contract content is written down and then signed, the soul of anyone who violates the contract will belong to Mephisto."
Loki's face turned green when he heard this.
As a sorcerer, he naturally knew about that demonic scum, Mephisto!
If he truly fell into his hands, even if Odin himself came, it would cost a considerable price to rescue him.
Watching Doctor Doom hand the parchment to Li Chengfeng, and Li Chengfeng's cunning, smug smile, Loki was already numb.
Forget it!
It's just 200 years!
For an Asgardian's lifespan, 200 years really isn't much.
Once the contract ends, he'll be free.
Li Chengfeng, on the other hand, was beaming with joy.
Doctor Doom's move was a ruthless, fundamental one.
One must know that Mephisto is one of the most famous of Marvel's "Hell-Lords"; besides his power, he is more famous for his schemes and tricks.
His Shadow is behind countless events.
And Doctor Doom fights Mephisto in Hell once a year to rescue his mother's soul.
This is the opportunity Mephisto gave him, and also a trap to lure him into the abyss of pursuing power.
Even though Doctor Doom knew, he stepped into it without hesitation.
This is also why Doctor Doom craves all unknown powers.
He needs power to defeat this insidious, cunning, yet incredibly powerful opponent.
But he clearly wasn't idle; after so many years of entanglement with Mephisto, he had thoroughly researched the magic related to the demonic dimension, which led to this scroll of parchment.
"This thing is for you."
"Pleasure working with you."
Li Chengfeng extended his hand again, this time smiling much more sincerely than before.
Doctor Doom paused, then extended his hand to shake Li Chengfeng's.
How long had it been since he... interacted normally with someone like this?
He truly was an interesting man from the Republic.
And just as Doctor Doom's back disappeared into the Teleportation Magic, the system also sent a notification that the mission was complete.
"Ding, Mission 'Raid Latveria' completed."
"Mission-related characters: Wolverine, White Queen, Mystique, Doctor Doom, Loki."
"Obtained Wolverine's Perception Ability."
"Obtained White Queen's Diamond Form."
"Obtained Mystique's Slowed Aging."
"Obtained Doctor Doom's Teleportation Magic."
"Obtained Loki's Physical Qualities."
Li Chengfeng heard this string of rewards, desperately tried to suppress the corners of his mouth, thought about the saddest things in his life three times over, and only then managed not to laugh out loud in front of everyone.
The previous mission, to put it mildly, gave him utter garbage; only by relying on Batman's willpower at the end did he manage to snag the original Green Lantern.
But this time, it could be said that all of them were quite excellent.
Wolverine's Perception Ability might not be famous, but in reality, it's a beastly intuition almost identical to Spider-Sense. Wolverine can even use this ability to intercept Quicksilver at full speed through pre-cognition.
White Queen's Diamond Form goes without saying; it has the hardness of a diamond without its brittleness and can withstand extreme high and low temperatures. Although it's not as terrifying as her telepathic ability, Li Chengfeng isn't particularly fond of telepathy; he dislikes the feeling of having too much information.
Mystique's Slowed Aging is essentially life extension, and it correspondingly prolongs the body's peak period.
Doctor Doom's Teleportation Magic, needless to say, is a super-enhanced plus version of Blink. Blink's limit is the distance from Earth to the Moon, while Doctor Doom's Teleportation Magic can even cross dimensions.
As for Loki's Physical Qualities, it might seem a bit comical, but he is a genuine Frost Giant descendant, no less capable than an Asgardian.
He appears delicate and ordinary only when compared to top Asgardian warriors like his brother, Sif, and The Warriors Three.
In the ability stats provided by Marvel official, Loki is a Strength 5 being, meaning his maximum load-bearing capacity reaches 75 tons!
This was actually what Li Chengfeng needed most at the moment.
His original physical qualities, which could only reach the peak of human ability, were no longer quite enough.
After receiving the rewards, Li Chengfeng turned around and nodded to Ada Wong, who was already prepared.
"Open the door."
As soon as he finished speaking, the prison door opened with a "buzz."
Loki didn't run; he couldn't run now.
"Please, Loki, God of Mischief of Asgard, sign this contract, and from now on, we'll be good colleagues, sharing the same pants."
"I don't want to share the same pants with you! Don't you FBI Agents even issue uniforms?"
"It's a metaphor! You uncultured pagan god!"
Looking at the green ring on Li Chengfeng's hand.
Looking at the strangely shaped Mutants behind him.
Loki tearfully signed the contract with an employment period of 250 years... "You despicable profiteer! Why did the price go up again!?"
