Rimuru ignored the questioning gazes of the crowd.
"Clang!"
With a wave of his hand, two magically enhanced Wind Gods appeared at the S.H.I.E.L.D. base.
"Tony, Rhodes, these are the Wind God mechs I specially designed for this battle. They combine Earth technology with Asgardian runes and feature enhanced magic resistance. Rhodes, you'll need to get used to this Wind God. The other one is for Tony to study!"
Hearing that the Wind God was for him to study, Tony's eyes lit up as if he had just discovered the best toy in the world.
"Little Jelly, you are too good! I'm really starting to like you more and more!"
Little Jelly?
Damn it!
Stark had just given her a random nickname. If everyone called her "Little Jelly" from now on, what would become of her reputation as the strongest Avenger?
Rimuru, unbothered, opened a portal beneath Tony's feet.
With a flash, Tony vanished.
Everyone stared in shock. Colonel Rhodes was the first to speak. "Um, Rimuru… where's Tony?"
With a benevolent smile, Rimuru replied casually, "Tony is currently free-falling. Don't worry, everyone—let Tony fly for a while."
Free-falling? Let Tony fly?
Everyone's mouths twitched, but for some reason, they also felt a little pleased.
Tony's antics, especially his nickname-giving, were legendary. Almost none of the Avengers could escape his grasp—but now, he finally met his match.
"Agent Barton, these are for you. Every arrow has been enchanted with runes for Whisper, Frost, Sharpness, Armor Pierce, Bleeding, Burning, Blast, and Poison. Get familiar with them!"
Rimuru handed Hawkeye several quivers of arrows. As an archer, Hawkeye immediately fell in love with them, and his favorability toward Rimuru skyrocketed.
Seeing Hawkeye's joyful expression, everyone's mood brightened.
To do a good job, one must first sharpen one's tools. At that moment, Rimuru gave off a bit of a Doraemon vibe—truly a human treasure trove.
"Sister Natasha, these are two Browning pistols. Both the pistols and bullets have been enchanted by me. This mission is extremely dangerous. If you don't mind, give me a set of your battle suit, and I'll enchant it to enhance its protection!"
Taking the pistols, Natasha smiled brightly. Like Hawkeye, she was fascinated by magical weapons.
"Alright, thank you, Rimuru."
Natasha was a stunner, the single green amidst a field of flowers, exceptionally pleasing to the eye.
Rimuru continued, "Oh, and the quality of your battle suits isn't sufficient. This steel wire, spun by Black Spider, is a magical material. Let S.H.I.E.L.D.'s designers figure out how to integrate it into your suits—it should be very helpful."
The crowd's eyes lit up at the rare magical material. Truly, Rimuru was like Doraemon!
"Clang!"
Another Wind God appeared.
"Sister Natasha, you are skilled with technological weapons. Familiarize yourself with this Wind God—it may come in handy!"
Natasha's eyes sparkled like little stars. Though women aren't typically as obsessed with mechs as men, as an agent she was intrigued. She had long desired a mech but never dared ask, knowing how fiercely Tony and Rimuru guarded theirs.
"Rimuru, you are truly amazing. When we return from Asgard, big sister will take you on vacation!"
Seeing Natasha clumsily pilot the Wind God, everyone felt a bit envious.
Was today a treasure distribution event?
Even Banner and Captain America were excited. Captain, coming from a wartime era, thought simply and revered the act of Rimuru selflessly distributing resources to her teammates. It reminded him of the camaraderie of his old days—comrades relying on each other without blood ties.
Rimuru smiled and extended her hand, conjuring Mjolnir directly before him.
"Captain, you've just woken up, so you might not know this hammer. It's called Mjolnir, the weapon of Asgard's crown prince, Thor. It's as light as a feather, yet as heavy as a mountain. Anyone who can lift it gains the power of the Thunder God!"
She placed the hammer before Captain America. "Try lifting it!"
The room fell silent. Everyone knew Rimuru might provide equipment, but Thor's weapon? And hadn't Thor taken it back to Asgard? How was it here?
Captain hesitated. "Thor's weapon… for me? Isn't that inappropriate? Won't it cause an interstellar dispute?"
Rimuru secretly admired him. To resist the temptation of even Thor's power, he was truly worthy of wielding Mjolnir.
"Captain, I understand your concerns. But trust me—for Earth, for Asgard—you need this power now."
"All right!"
Captain gripped the hammer with one hand, straining, but it didn't move. He tried both hands, exerting all his strength, yet Mjolnir remained unmoved.
Everyone gasped. Had Rimuru miscalculated? Was Captain unworthy?
Suddenly, lightning struck from the sky, punching a hole in the roof. Dust and debris flew, and Captain America, holding the divine hammer bathed in lightning, appeared like a god descended.
Oh my God—he really lifted it!
Rimuru had known Captain could wield Mjolnir all along. Everyone stared at Rimuru with awe, no longer doubting, only admiring.
Captain felt the vast, surging power within Mjolnir and his heart swelled—but he admired Rimuru even more.
Seeing Captain receive his gift, Banner rubbed his hands in excitement. What about him? What would Rimuru give him?
Rimuru cheerfully said, "Everyone, familiarize yourselves with your new weapons and powers. Once ready, we depart!"
Banner's smile froze. No treasures for him?
Rimuru noticed and chuckled. "Dr. Banner, your other self—the Hulk—is the strongest. External objects would only hinder you."
Banner sighed bitterly. "Hulk is too strong. Even I can't control him. It's a curse called 'power.'"
Rimuru felt a pang of sympathy. "Dr. Banner, perhaps you could try getting a pet."
Banner blinked. A pet? He could barely care for himself—how could he handle a pet?
But knowing Rimuru, he trusted her advice. "A pet would help with Hulk?"
Rimuru nodded. "Very effective. Hulk is just an easily angered child—he can be coaxed."
Hulk is just an angry child?
Banner's mind exploded. Seven doctorates, countless experiments, yet he had never considered this approach.
"Thank you, thank you so much. I'll start learning how to raise a pet immediately!"
Seeing Banner leave in high spirits, Rimuru felt immense pride.
Helping the Avengers, these superheroes, solve problems was a true honor.
So happy, Rimuru opened a portal and left the S.H.I.E.L.D. base.
He seemed to have forgotten something but didn't bother recalling it.
Never mind—if it wasn't important, Rimuru wasn't going to waste brain cells.
