Walking over to Mjolnir, he closed his fingers around the hammer's handle. He took a deep breath, and with a steady, powerful voice, he let out a low shout.
"Hah!"
He put all his strength into it, but Mjolnir remained completely still, not budging an inch. It didn't give Tony Stark any face at all.
This Tony Stark PLUS version still couldn't lift Mjolnir.
"Tch~"
Tony Stark clicked his tongue and shrugged, then casually walked to the side. He looked at Kayaba Akihiko and the others, saying, "You guys, try it too."
"If I lift it, can I take it?" Kayaba Akihiko asked, pointing at Mjolnir.
"No," Tony Stark replied immediately.
"Tch," Kayaba Akihiko's expression immediately soured at the words, and he waved a hand dismissively. "You guys play. I'm not interested."
Anything that couldn't be sold for money held zero interest for Kayaba Akihiko.
Bucky moved his right arm, walked over to Mjolnir, and gripped the handle, slowly applying force.
A minute later, his face flushed red, but he hadn't budged Mjolnir an inch. Bucky gave up, walked to Kayaba Akihiko's side, crossed his arms, and looked at Steve Rogers, anticipating his performance.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Steve walked over to Mjolnir. He grasped the handle and gently applied force. Mjolnir was immediately lifted into the air.
Steve swung the hammer a few times. Judging by his relaxed demeanor, it was as if Mjolnir weighed nothing.
Coulson immediately gaped, using an exaggerated expression to convey disbelief.
When they discovered Mjolnir, S.H.I.E.L.D. had conducted a series of tests, such as using cars to tow it, tanks to tow it, and helicopters to tow it… But no matter what method they used, they couldn't move it even slightly.
However, at this moment…
That hammer, which was of unknown weight, was lifted by a person.
For a moment, Coulson didn't know what to say, and just stared blankly.
"Although I expected it, you're making it look too easy…"
In the future that Tony Stark had seen, he had witnessed Steve wielding Mjolnir in battle, so he already knew Steve could lift Mjolnir.
"To be honest, I'm pretty surprised too."
Steve had also seen his future self wielding Mjolnir in battle, but seeing it was one thing, actually lifting it was another.
"How is it? Can you use the Power of Thor?" Bucky asked curiously.
"I can." Steve closed his eyes, sensing for a few seconds, feeling the manipulation of some energies, and nodded.
"Show us." Tony Stark gestured with a "please" motion.
"Here?" Steve looked around at the equipment and instruments, feeling that if he swung the hammer, S.H.I.E.L.D. would lose tens of millions, if not more.
"Let's go outside then."
Kayaba Akihiko turned and walked into the passage first, followed by Tony Stark and Bucky. Steve put his right index finger into the ring-shaped leather belt at the end of Mjolnir's handle, twirling it as he followed them.
"Wait...wait..."
Coulson turned and put out a hand, looking at the empty passage. He only managed to say two words before running into the passage, hurrying after Tony Stark and the others.
Outside the temporary base, a short distance away, a piece of open ground.
Steve looked up at the sky and suddenly raised Mjolnir.
In an instant, the sky was covered with dark clouds, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled, and the wind howled.
Steve was lifted by the strong wind and floated in the air. Countless pieces of metal flew towards Steve and attached to various parts of his body, and a suit of armor gradually condensed from nothing.
A bright red cape fluttered in the wind.
"Lightning Strike!"
Steve, who had finished changing, roared and swung the hammer down.
In the dark clouds, a thick bolt of lightning, like a roaring thunder dragon, fell. The dazzling light flashed and was gone, and a seven or eight meter high mound of earth was directly blasted by the lightning, with mud splashing everywhere.
The raised area became a depression.
"The power is decent," Tony Stark commented.
He could unleash hundreds of attacks dealing the same amount of damage in a single second.
That's the advantage of being a mecha user: overwhelming numbers.
Mecha Legion, standby...
"It doesn't...look very cool," Bucky said, eyeing the armor Steve was wearing.
"What a pity!" Kayaba Akihiko lamented, disappointed that he couldn't sell Mjolnir.
"Is that... Mjolnir?!" Coulson murmured, his face filled with shock.
Steve slowly landed, assessing Mjolnir. "Besides controlling lightning, it also grants the wielder the ability to fly and enhances their physique, strength, and speed..."
"What a pity!" Kayaba Akihiko sighed again, listening to Steve's account.
"Since it works well, you can use it for now," Tony Stark said. "I'll speak to Odin; he'll probably agree."
Coulson turned to Tony Stark, staring at him: "Hey!"
You can actually contact Odin?!
"Then let's try using it for a while..." Steve looked down at Mjolnir. He wanted to test how much stronger he had become with the Power of Thor.
The testing method... was to enter a dungeon and fight monsters.
He wanted to see if he could earn more money in the same amount of time with the Power of Thor.
Watching Tony Stark and Steve, who decided on the hammer's allocation with just a few words, Coulson interjected.
"Wait a minute, you can't..."
However, Stark didn't intend to let Coulson finish speaking. He completely ignored him, waved his hand, and gathered his companions.
"Let's go, we're going to see Thor."
Without hesitation, the four of them headed toward the town in the distance.
Coulson: "..."
Could you guys please not ignore me!
Sighing, Coulson gave up on reasoning with Stark. He chased after Tony Stark while sending a text message to his superior, explaining the situation.
At this moment, in a town not far from S.H.I.E.L.D.'s temporary base.
The place where Steve had tested his strength wasn't far from the town.
Consequently, many people in the town had witnessed the earlier scene firsthand.
A small area covered in dark clouds, with lightning and thunder, was something quite remarkable for ordinary people.
Inside the streets, restaurants, and bars... people everywhere were discussing it.
Different people had different guesses about what had happened. Some thought it was XXX testing weapons, others believed it was a person with special abilities, and still others thought it was unusual weather...
In short, all sorts of wild and strange speculations were circulating.
And Thor Odinson, without a doubt, connected it to his weapon, Mjolnir, which had accompanied him for thousands of years.
No, no, no, it's impossible…
How could Mjolnir choose someone else!
Thor lowered his head, shaking it slowly, as if trying to cast away some bad guesses.
However… when he raised his head again, he saw a person wearing a very familiar suit of armor at the end of the street.
