Loki hadn't recovered yet when Sylvie rushed in, and she looked at Loki and said, "Hurry, let's get out of here!"
"Didn't I tell you before? The mysterious Director won't be back for a while, so we can take our time to figure out a plan."
"How can you be sure he won't come back right away?" Sylvie was full of anxiety, pacing quickly on the spot, and many important pieces of information that Loki couldn't get out of her before just spilled out.
"You don't know how powerful he is! He can traverse time and space anytime, which means if he wants to, he can appear in front of us next second. You don't know, Thor is badly injured now, if he goes against this Director, his chances of winning are very small."
Sylvie looked agonized and said, "An opponent with the ability to manipulate time and traverse space is the hardest to deal with. Even if my sister's power is strong, going up against the Director of the Time Management Bureau is like punching cotton, powerful but ineffective."
Then she suddenly rushed over and grabbed Loki's arm, saying, "So we have to leave quickly, even if he comes after us, we can't let Thor fight him."
Loki gently removed her arm and looked into her eyes, saying, "I didn't plan to confront him here either, but you have to figure out where we're going and what we're going to do next. And you also have to tell me what his weaknesses are, Sylvie. You said he's very powerful, if we don't unite, we have no chance of winning."
Sylvie took a few deep breaths, trying to calm herself down, then bit her lip and said, "We need as much reinforcement as possible, but not others, but ourselves."
"When I was wandering through the timeline, I've encountered other Lokis, just like I said, we are habitual offenders in the chaotic timeline."
"As far as I know, there's a group of crazy Lokis who were once arrested by the Time Management Bureau but escaped. Although they are mostly crazy, their strength is undeniable and they should be able to help us."
"You mean... the Lokis your sister had encountered?" Loki asked with some confusion.
Sylvie averted her eyes, nodding thoughtfully, "Aside from this group, there shouldn't be anyone else. They should have also learned about my uniqueness from the employees of the Time Management Bureau, so they came to my world to find me and try to use me to deal with the Director of the Time Management Bureau..."
"Forgive me for being direct, Miss Sylvie, but now you should tell me, what is so special about you?" Loki stepped forward and looked into Sylvie's eyes, "If you continue to hide it, I'm afraid no one can help you."
"The problem is, I don't know what's special about me either!" Sylvie said in despair, "One day, that crazy Director came to me and asked me how I broke through the barrier? Good heavens, what barrier?!"
"At that time, I was just a little girl, I had no idea what he was talking about, and for all these years, I've never seen any barrier, nor do I have any abilities that exceed other Lokis." Sylvie appeared completely perplexed.
Seeing her current expression, Loki understood that Sylvie really didn't know, but it's not surprising, since the Director had to torture her, and Sylvie didn't tell him any information.
Although Sylvie was young at the time, she couldn't have not known what she was going to face. If she really knew some secret, she would have been forced to reveal it long ago.
Suddenly, Sylvie seemed to have remembered something, and said, "Yes, that's right, we should go find those Lokis, let's go now!"
Loki looked puzzled and held her back. Sylvie looked into his eyes and said, "You don't know, those Lokis are also very special, they've broken out of their own fate and used their own power to interfere with the timeline. I guess... they may have a deeper understanding of the so-called 'barrier' the Director mentioned."
"But what can we use to convince them?" Loki asked again, "They are another version of ourselves, and I know myself best, without enough interest, I won't help others..."
Years of tempering had made Sylvie's thinking more active even in her impatient state. After a brief consideration, she said, "They are different from me, they escaped from the Time Management Bureau on their own, but they haven't fully escaped the control of time, nor do they have time travel devices."
"They were able to escape by utilizing the special nature of the timeline, they can't freely traverse time, even if they can time travel, they have to pay a huge price."
Sylvie stared into Loki's eyes and said, "Among them, there are quite a few Lokis who want to return to Asgard, just like you. As long as we use this point, they won't refuse."
Loki pondered a bit and felt that Sylvie's words made sense. Fundamentally, Loki understands Loki the best, and the best collaborator for Loki is still Loki. To deal with the Director of the Time Management Bureau, having such a team of companions would greatly increase their chances of success.
More importantly, they have a common interest. As long as the Director of the Time Management Bureau is not dead, Loki will always be entangled by him. In that case, it's better to unite and fight the strong enemy together. If they can really defeat the Director of the Time Management Bureau, everyone will benefit.
With this in mind, Loki no longer hesitated. Sylvie went to say goodbye to Thor, and Loki brought Helen, and the two of them returned to the Time Management Bureau using the time travel device, and met Mobius.
When Mobius saw Sylvie, he was greatly shocked, and stammered, "My goodness, little Sylvie, how... how did you grow up so much? Oh my! I... I'm really sorry, we shouldn't have..."
Mobius appeared very guilty, but Sylvie didn't make a big deal out of it. She waved her hand and said, "Don't mention the past, I know you were powerless. This time I've come back to ask you, how did the group of Lokis who escaped from the Time Management Bureau leave, and where did they go?"
Hearing this question, Mobius paused, then said a bit awkwardly, "I'm just a file manager, B15 was responsible for the supervision, and I happened to be on a business trip during that time, so I don't know the specific details. How about I take you to find B15?"
Loki and Sylvie rolled their eyes together, and Mobius scratched his head, still leading the two of them to B15's office. Hearing their request, B15's expression also became a bit awkward. She tapped her shield and said, "Actually, I don't know much about this either, the original incident was only witnessed by Lavona throughout."
Sylvie and Loki exchanged a glance, acutely sensing that something was wrong. Seeing their expressions, B15 said somewhat helplessly, "Okay, it's very likely that this was planned by Lavona. I'll take you to find her."
They found Lavona, who was tidying up materials in the Time Court, and it seemed like she had known they would come. The female judge sighed lightly and said, "I know you have a lot of questions, ask whatever you want."
"I thought you were the most loyal to the Director among you." Sylvie narrowed her eyes, "What's going on here?"
"I am indeed loyal to the Director," Lavona said with a cold gaze, "But the Director I'm loyal to is not this one..."
Lavona raised her head, looking straight ahead, and said, "My family and friends all died in a time accident, and the Director saved me, so I'm loyal to him and work for him."
"But one day I discovered that the Director leading the Time Management Bureau I'm in is not the one I knew before..." Lavona shook her head gently:
"The previous Director was witty and humorous, not exactly kind, but somewhat well-intentioned. He was a bit sloppy at work, with a lot of loopholes, but it was still acceptable. More importantly, he was indeed carefully maintaining the stability of the timeline and had saved many victims like me."
"But on the day the sacred timeline split, he disappeared without a trace." Lavona's tone was gloomy, and everyone could hear the sadness in her words. She slowly closed her eyes and then said, "One day he returned and resumed control of the Time Management Bureau, but he was no longer the same..."
"The Director now leading this Time Management Bureau is a tyrant, inhuman, and he's not even carefully working anymore. He no longer cares about the stability of the timeline, he only cares about his own interests."
Lavona's tone became very angry, and she slammed the documents on the desk, then said, "He wants to turn the Time Management Bureau into his own private army. Everything he does is to destroy the achievements of the previous Director!"
"So, you actually betrayed him long ago?" Mobius looked at Lavona with some surprise, "I thought..."
"What did you think? Don't think I don't know, you all slack off at work, not because you dislike the Director, but purely out of laziness." Lavona said impatiently, "Although I'm not loyal to the current Director, I believe that all Criminals who casually manipulate the timeline must be punished."
"Alright, calm down." Loki reached out to soothe her, then looked at Lavona and said, "So, that group of Lokis were actually released by you? Where did you send them?"
Lavona sighed softly, relaxing her shoulders and sitting back in the chair, looking at them, "Precisely because I know how powerful the Director is, I prepared early on. Those trash, although their personalities are terrible and their actions are ruthless, at least they have some ability."
"I contacted them by various means and created a time split incident within the Time Management Bureau, banishing them to the end of time, that is, the void."
"That is a land independent of all timelines, a barren wasteland. For many years, I've been using my authority to help them traverse the timelines and investigate the Director's secrets." As Lavona said this, she fixed her gaze on Sylvie.
"I guess they should have already been to your realm, and their actions are all under my tacit approval."
"I know you want to go find them, unite with them, and fight the Director of the Time Management Bureau together, but you must know one thing..."
Lavona walked out from behind the judgment platform, looking into Loki's eyes, "With just us, we are still not his match."
"If you can't find even more powerful allies, it's best not to choose to start a war with him... that's just courting death."
