The black blade lightly swung.
With a bang.
Mjolnir was actually sent flying, directly piercing through several buildings, its destination unknown.
Effortlessly slashing Mjolnir away, Su Zhan slowly raised his head, his face expressionless, his eyes icy cold, and the Aether Battle Suit appeared on his body.
"Oh no, he's probably controlled! What should we do? Elliot Randolph alone was already so difficult to deal with, almost wiping us out. Now it's Su Zhan, how can we fight this?" Steve Rogers cried out in despair.
He was Captain America, the indomitable spirit of the U.S., but now, even he began to despair.
"If we can't fight, then we die!" Hawkeye said brazenly; he was utterly desperate now.
A desperate aura permeated the air.
Su Zhan's cold expression suddenly changed, and he said with a smile, "At this moment, shouldn't I say, 'No one, whether in Heaven or on Earth, can save you'?"
Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned.
"You… you're fine?" Steve Rogers asked blankly.
"Isn't it obvious?" Su Zhan shrugged, casually brandishing his twin blades. "These are my things. If I were to be affected by my own things, wouldn't that be a joke?"
"Oh my god, you scared us to death!" Hawkeye couldn't help but complain.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and the atmosphere lightened.
"You said these are your things?" Thor asked curiously, "I clearly feel like there's some Heavenly Palace magic in them?"
"Hmm, this thing was modified from the Berserker Staff, and I added some small things I got. It seems the power is quite good!" Su Zhan said with satisfaction, just as he saw Elliot Randolph, who had woken up. "Your craftsmanship is excellent; I'm very satisfied with the Fear Twin Blades!"
Elliot Randolph instinctively recoiled a bit; he was now filled with dread towards the Fear Twin Blades. "Oh god, don't let me see it again! It's too terrifying."
Seeing him so afraid, Su Zhan didn't intentionally scare him. "How do you feel?"
"Terrible, like my body has been completely drained," Elliot Randolph said, shaking his head.
"Su Zhan, are you sure there won't be any problems?"
Thor asked with some concern.
"Of course!" Su Zhan said affirmatively.
"That's good. I find you truly are an amazing person. The Aether Particle has no effect on you, and these blades have no effect on you either. I just hope you don't use these blades easily; they are too terrifying." Thor shook his head, then looked at Elliot Randolph. "You, come back to the Heavenly Palace with me!"
"No… I don't want to go back." Elliot Randolph was a bit annoyed. He had hidden for so long, yet he was still found. "Su Zhan, you promised me. I helped you forge the twin blades, and you would protect me and not let anyone take me away. You wouldn't go back on your word, right? For the sake of these damned blades satisfying you, please help me."
Thor didn't expect such a condition between him and Su Zhan. He looked at Su Zhan and said, "He is an Asgardian. According to the rules, he should return to Asgard. Moreover, although he was controlled this time, after all… he destroyed this city and must return to Asgard to receive punishment!"
Elliot Randolph and Thor both looked at Su Zhan. Su Zhan thought for a moment, then shook his head at Thor and said, "I'm sorry, I cannot let you take him… I promised him, and I don't want to go back on my word."
"These are our Asgardian rules," Thor said.
"But they are not my rules. If you insist on taking him, that's fine!" Su Zhan slowly raised his hand, and Thor instantly became alert.
"You're not going to fight, are you? We are friends, and you are Asgard's hero!" Thor now felt the same scalp-tingling sensation towards the Fear Twin Blades as Elliot Randolph.
"Since we are friends, and you say I am Asgard's hero, then letting him stay shouldn't be a problem, right? After all, he helped me! Moreover, he just likes life on Earth. He's been hiding for so many years and hasn't done anything bad. And if it weren't for him, perhaps we wouldn't have known about your deeds. In a way, he's even a benefactor to you Asgardians. Without him, who the hell would know you're Thor!"
"Alright, I will truthfully report this to my father. He can stay for now." Thor saw Su Zhan's firm attitude and that what he said made sense, so he could only agree.
The main reason was, he couldn't not agree.
He didn't want to fight Su Zhan.
"That's right!"
Su Zhan smiled and suddenly struck, the silver blade instantly piercing towards Thor.
Thor didn't react at all, nor did he expect Su Zhan to suddenly attack. When he did react, he felt that the lingering Fear in his body seemed to have disappeared.
"Thank you!" Thor thanked Su Zhan.
Su Zhan smiled and shook his head, then walked over and absorbed all the Fear from Steve Rogers, Hawkeye, and Natasha in turn.
"This is great, finally that dreadful feeling is gone. I feel so much lighter now," Hawkeye said with a smile.
Natasha gave Su Zhan a charming smile; even the side effects and influence from last time had disappeared. This feeling of lightness was truly wonderful.
Chapter 0108: The Bill Can Be Sent to Me
"I need to return to the Heavenly Palace to report this matter to my father. If you have time, you are welcome to visit Asgard. Also… Sif misses you very much and often asks Heimdall about your situation." Thor said with a hint of meaning, then walked to a distance and shouted towards the sky. Soon… a Teleportation Array descended from the sky and took Thor away.
After Thor left, Elliot Randolph breathed a sigh of relief and thanked Su Zhan.
"Buzz buzz buzz!"
A huge mechanical sound rang out. Su Zhan looked up and saw S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Aircraft Carrier flying in from a distance. Immediately after, a small aircraft flew down from the Aircraft Carrier.
After Nick Fury descended, he looked around, his expression serious.
"Who can tell me what happened here?!"
Su Zhan shrugged, disdainful of Nick Fury's posturing. This mission was arranged by him; how could he not know what happened?
"Why is one person missing? Where's Tony?"
Although Su Zhan was too lazy to explain, Steve Rogers and the others couldn't not give face, so they simply explained what had happened. After listening, Nick Fury asked a question.
It was at this moment that everyone realized Iron Man wasn't there? They remembered he was injured and unconscious earlier, and then when Thor and Elliot Randolph were exchanging powerful attacks, they were all taken to the rooftop by Su Zhan. It seemed… it seemed they hadn't paid attention to Tony. As a result, when the building collapsed later, Su Zhan only protected them, and they, due to the influence of Fear Power and the intense battle, had also overlooked Tony.
"Oh my god," Steve Rogers shouted.
"Damn it, he didn't die, did he?" Hawkeye also shouted, and both rushed to the ruins to look for Tony.
Natasha glanced at Su Zhan, the meaning in her eyes very clear: "You did that on purpose?"
Su Zhan smiled noncommittally. From the extent of his smile, Natasha guessed it was probably intentional. "What a petty man."
Natasha thought of Pepper and secretly pouted.
Nick Fury walked up to Su Zhan and said, "Can you hand over those two blades? After all… their existence is too dangerous. If they fall into the hands of those with ill intentions, it could cause big trouble!"
"Are you still asleep?"
Su Zhan looked at him and said with a wry smile, "Do you think that's possible?"
"Alright, I know it's not possible. I trust you will use these blades wisely. So… what about him? Can you hand him over to me?" Nick Fury never intended to get the Fear Twin Blades from the start; it was merely a negotiation tactic. His goal was Elliot Randolph.
