Chapter 341: Retreat
🕑 Added 2024-01-24 19:16:26 +0000 UTCA SHIELD agent, seeing the sudden retreat of the enemies, did not immediately intervene but ran down from the armored vehicle and approached Natasha's car, asking, "Agent Natasha, were you injured?"
Natasha, seeing the approaching special agent team, opened the car door. In the recent confrontation, she was genuinely concerned that the enemies might bring out heavy weapons or RPGs, putting her in danger.
Fortunately, the assassins did not have heavy weapons stored inside the hotel.
"I'm not injured. Did you bring the search warrant?"
"It is coming!"
"Good!"
As Natasha stepped out of the car, accompanied by the fully armed special agent team, they headed towards the Continental Hotel.
Inside the hotel, the killers watching the commotion suddenly changed their expressions. It seemed that the individuals who had just taken action had stirred up quite a bit of trouble.
Natasha, leading the fully armed special agent team, walked towards the Continental Hotel.
At this moment, the hotel doorman, facing Natasha and the others, spoke with great determination, "The rules inside the hotel cannot be broken."
The presence of Charles Doyle and the rules upheld since the establishment of the hotel gave him the courage to speak confidently, even in the face of government enforcement agencies.
Natasha glanced at the door attendant who spoke and raised an eyebrow but didn't bother to respond.
Entering the hotel, Natasha looked at the many assassins inside. In their eyes, she saw greed, amusement, mockery, violence, but notably absent was fear – fear of government enforcement agencies.
Natasha, accompanied by the special agent team, reached the hotel's front desk and spoke to Eddie, "Call your manager, Winston, down here."
Winston, upon hearing the conflict between the assassins and Natasha, had known about it from the very beginning. Instead of stopping it, he let the situation develop.
For him, whether the other party could keep what they had or not wouldn't affect him in any way.
Then, the development of the situation exceeded his expectations. The other party turned out to be government agents, although he didn't know from which department.
Immediately after the special agent team arrived, Winston reported everything happening here to the High Table - Charles's secretary, Ginny.
Winston now walked down the stairs and arrived in front of Natasha.
"I wonder, Miss Special Agent, what brings you to our hotel."
Seeing Winston, whose expression remained stable, Natasha felt an approval for Charles's subordinate. He showed no panic upon encountering a government enforcement agency.
"I want to see Tony Stark!"
Afterward, she took out the search warrant and placed it in front of Winston.
"If I can't see him, then we'll have to search each room one by one."
Upon hearing that Natasha came for Tony, Winston, after glancing at the search warrant, thought, "Troublesome."
During the call with Ginny just now, he had confirmed that Charles had left with Tony and others. They were indeed not in the hotel.
So, Winston could only speak with a very serious expression, "Agent Natasha, I can tell you with certainty that Mr. Tony Stark is not inside the hotel."
Looking at the serious look on Winston's face, which seemed sincere, Natasha still spoke, "If that's the case, then I'll have to search each room. I won't leave any part of this hotel untouched."
"Agent Natasha, this is Lord Charles's property. We strictly adhere to the rules set by Lord Charles. Searches are not allowed here."
As Winston spoke, the atmosphere changed. The killers who had been watching the scene stood up and moved behind Winston.
These killers not only supported Winston but also supported the true ruler of the Continental Hotel, Lord Charles Doyle.
If just anyone, holding a potentially fake search warrant, could turn the Continental Hotel upside down, then there would be no reason for this hotel to exist. They would also become a source of embarrassment for Lord Charles.
The atmosphere at the scene became exceptionally tense. Just as Natasha was preparing to speak forcefully, the phone suddenly rang.
Seeing that it was her phone, Natasha frowned slightly, especially since the caller was Director Nick Fury. She answered the call directly.
"Yes, understood!"
After hanging up the phone, Natasha looked at Winston.
"You're lucky."
"Retreat!"
After uttering these words, Natasha, with the SHIELD agents, left the Continental Hotel.
...
In the magical world-
At this point, Charles and the others had returned to Merlin's Magic Tower.
With their return, the news about the magical world successfully resisting the Hell Dimension invasion spread.
Balthazar arranged a grand celebration for the magical world.
Countless elves prepared the fine wines, delicacies, and decorations needed for the celebration on the square in front of Merlin's Magic Tower.
At this moment, Charles stood on the top floor of the magic tower, watching the bustling crowd below. He didn't relax, knowing that challenges awaited her, becoming increasingly severe.
Dealing with a Mephisto's clone had proven difficult, and future adversaries would likely be even more terrifying.
Thinking of Mephisto from the Hell Dimension, Dormammu from the Dark Dimension, the Scarlet Witch and even Thanos, who wiped out half of all life, Charles knew that the issue of increasing his strength was imminent.
Presumably, Thor had already descended by now, and the upcoming major event in the Marvel Universe, the Battle of New York, was approaching within a year.
As Charles pondered, a teleportation portal suddenly appeared beside him, and, the Ancient One, walked in.
Seeing the arrival of the Sorcerer Supreme, Charles respectfully said, "Master Ancient One!"
"Congratulations on successfully repelling the invasion from the Hell Dimension and becoming the Supreme Merlin."
"It's just luck. If Mephisto, the Lord of Hell, had come in person, I wouldn't have been able to defeat him."
Upon hearing Charles's words, the Ancient One spoke softly, "No, he did come, but he was being held back."
With a wave of her hand, a scene appeared in front of Charles, showing the Ancient One and Odin intercepting Mephisto in the Hell Dimension.
Seeing this scene, Charles understood why only Mephisto's avatar had arrived until the end of the battle, and his true self hadn't shown up.
However, looking at Odin holding the Gungnir, Charles was still a bit puzzled. According to logic, shouldn't he be in a deep slumber in the Asgardian palace?
But recalling the events in Thor, where Odin suddenly intervened to save Thor and Loki from falling into the universe, it seemed Odin was once again being a cunning strategist.
However, Odin's abdication was different from Merlin's and the Ancient One's. He truly is nearing the end of his lifespan and needs a successor.
Without dwelling on these thoughts, Charles showed a respectful expression and said, "Thank you very much, Master Ancient One and King Odin, for your help!"
Ancient One nodded and then spoke, "After the banquet is over, I will take you to Asgard. Odin wishes to meet you."
Looking at Charles's puzzled expression, the Ancient One continued, "It's a good thing for you."
Hearing the Ancient One's words, Charles pondered for a moment and then said, "Then, I will trouble you, Master Ancient One."
After confirming the journey to the Asgard realm with Charles, Ancient One returned to Kamar-Taj and did not stay to participate in the celebration activities.
...
Asgardian Realm-
Loki and Thor were entangled in a fierce battle on the Rainbow Bridge. However, in the end, Thor used lightning to defeat Loki. He then placed Mjolnir on Loki and suppressed him on the Rainbow Bridge.
After dealing with Loki, Thor looked towards the activation gate of the Rainbow Bridge. However, during this time, the power of the Rainbow Bridge had been continuously increasing, generating an energy storm that made it impossible for Thor to approach the control room easily.
Lying on the ground, Loki tried everything, but he still couldn't move the Mjolnir. Unwilling to accept defeat, Loki taunted, "Look at you, mighty Thor."
"With all your strength, what use is it now?"
"Can you hear it?"
"Brother, you can't close it at all."
Watching the Rainbow Bridge continuing to bombard Jotunheim, Thor knew that time was running out and he needed to take some action.
With a wave of his hand, he retrieved Mjolnir, picked it up, and fiercely smashed it towards the energy conveyor belt of the Rainbow Bridge beneath his feet.
With one blow, cracks immediately appeared on the Rainbow Bridge. Seeing this scene, not only Loki was stunned, but even Odin was dumbfounded. This spoiled thing had just shattered his Destroyer armor, and now it was about to break the Rainbow Bridge.
Odin dared not remain in a state of slumber and immediately fused his soul with his body; he had to stop Thor's actions.
There might still be time...
Seeing the effect, Thor immediately exerted more force, causing more cracks on the Rainbow Bridge.
Loki, dumbfounded, shouted, "What are you doing?"
"If you destroy the bridge, you won't see her again."
Ignoring Loki's plea, Thor continued to relentlessly strike the Rainbow Bridge with Mjolnir.
"Forgive me, Jane!"
Watching Thor acting like a maniac, Loki picked up the Gungnir and tried to stop him.
However, Loki's actions were a step too late. Just as he leaped, Thor delivered the final blow that destroyed the Rainbow Bridge.
In a massive explosion, both Thor and Loki were blasted away. The control room of the Rainbow Bridge was crushed in this enormous explosion.
The tremendous energy explosion created a rift in the fabric of the universe, and the moment it appeared, it began to devour everything around it.
Thor and Loki, propelled by the destruction of the Rainbow Bridge, descended towards the cosmic abyss. Even for the mighty Asgardians, falling into it meant almost certain death.
Loki fell from the sky, holding the Gungnir, and Thor, seeing Loki about to fall, managed to grab the other end of the Gungnir.
However, with no solid ground beneath him, Thor was also on the verge of falling into the cosmic abyss along with Loki. At this critical moment, Odin arrived just in time, grabbing Thor.
Seeing Odin coming to the rescue, Loki, still holding the Eternal Spear, spoke:
"Father, I could have done it. I could have destroyed Jotunheim."
"For you, for us."
Hearing Loki's words, Odin was also frustrated. The situation had escalated to this point, and he spoke with pain:
"No, Loki."
Upon hearing that his actions did not gain his father's approval, Loki felt a sense of despair.
Was this the treatment he received as an adopted son, just because he wasn't Odin's biological child? Subsequently, Loki released his grip on the Gungnir, allowing himself to fall into the cosmic abyss.
Seeing Loki letting go of the Gungnir, Thor screamed in agony, "No, Loki."
"No!"
Seeing Loki falling into the cosmic abyss, Odin was also stunned for a moment, and in anguish, he exclaimed, "No!"
Realizing that they couldn't continue like this, Odin quickly grabbed Thor before he, too, could let go and fall into the abyss.
...
Magic World-
The grand banquet was already underway.
Charles sat at the center of the feast, receiving constant toasts and blessings from the attendees and magicians.
Tsunade was now following beside Tobirama, listening to him tell various stories about becoming a wandering swordsman.
She learned that her grandfather had formed a team of wandering swordsmen, including Zabuza Momochi, who wielded the Decapitating Great Sword, and Haku, the Ice Shield User.
Through their conversation, Tsunade learned that Tobirama, despite being her grandfather, wasn't the same Tobirama from her original world.
This was a world with a different timeline, and Tobirama didn't truly come to this world; he could only stay for 24 hours.
Although it wasn't the same world, Tsunade still regarded Tobirama as her grandfather and cherished the limited time they had together.
Tobirama took a sip of the drink at the banquet and then said, "Little Tsunade, it seems this world also faces significant dangers."
"I can't stay here to protect you, but I hope you can protect yourself and continue to grow happily."
Seeing her gentle grandfather, Tsunade smiled, "Thank you, Grandpa Tobirama!"
…
Tony, with a slightly intoxicated expression, was deeply impacted by the recent battle. The endless demonic army made him realize the limitations of his power. Faced with such danger, he found too many shortcomings in himself.
Tony held a jug of wine, came to Charles's side, sat down, and poured himself a drink. He then said, "Are these kinds of battles frequent in the magical world?"
Charles looked at Tony, pondered for a moment, and then replied, "Not frequent, but there are even more dangerous wars."
Tony, hearing this, was momentarily stunned and then shook his head, "Tomorrow, tomorrow I have to go back."
"My armor needs an upgrade..."
Charles picked up a cup from the table, took a sip, and said, "Alright!"
