Loki lay in the crater smashed by his own body, completely speechless at this moment.
Because he felt as if several bones in his body had broken... This was the first time he, as a god, had suffered such a severe injury!
Even in his past 'play' with Thor, he had never been hurt this badly!
At most, he'd be thrown forcefully by Thor to hit someone, never slammed repeatedly into the ground like this!
And that strength, even more terrifying than Thor's—was this guy really still human?
Or was he truly the so-called Spider God?
But he didn't remember any pantheon having such a wretched god!
And most importantly, this miscalculation had caused him to lose face big time!
He had used Asgardian technology to hack Earth's network for a worldwide live stream, wanting to show off before all the mortals of Earth to pave the way for his conquest!
The live stream hadn't been turned off yet; it was still broadcasting globally!
Thinking of this, Loki, who cared deeply about his reputation, tried to reach out and grab the golden sphere with a pair of golden wings flapping in the sky, wanting to turn it off.
This flying sphere was the magic-powered flying drone he had brought from Asgard for the broadcast.
But Ryan mercilessly stepped on Loki's straining arm, grinding it into the ground. As Loki's arm let out a sickening crack, cold sweat beaded on his forehead, and he screamed in agony!
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAGH—"
Ryan grabbed Loki by the throat and hoisted him up, cutting off his screams. Holding him high in the air, he sneered, "You piece of trash, still trying to incite others to doxx me? Who do you think you are, Odin, the All-Father?"
As he spoke, Ryan's fingers tightened around Loki's neck. Loki's legs kicked wildly in the air, his face turning from pale to a deep purple—he clearly couldn't breathe!
This guy really wants to kill me!
Loki's eyes filled with terror. Summoning his last bit of strength, he squeezed out from his throat, "Laufey... save me!!!"
Following Loki's heart-wrenching plea for help, the Bifrost Bridge beam that had been steadily striking Stark Tower shifted. A massive ice blade shot out from it, aimed straight for the back of Ryan's heart.
Clang—
Without even looking back, Ryan swung his other hand. A silver-gray giant blade appeared from his arm, shattering the incoming ice blade!
"Mortal of Midgard, release him!"
Ryan turned around to see a behemoth over five meters tall stepping out of the Bifrost beam.
With blue skin and crimson eyes, it was clearly the King of the Frost Giants, Laufey!
Facing such a giant, Ryan showed no fear. Instead, he taunted disdainfully:
"What's this? You, the King of Cuckolds, let Odin next door raise your son for over a thousand years without a word, and now you can't bear to let your biological son go?"
(Meanwhile, Thor, who was nervously watching the live stream at the Parker home: Σ(ﾟдﾟlll)!)
Ignoring that idiot Thor for a moment, Laufey's footsteps halted at the tower upon hearing this. He said in a low voice:
"Midgardian, it seems you know many secrets you shouldn't!"
"But since you now know he is my only son, release him. I can guarantee that once I conquer Midgard, I will spare you and your Spider Family!"
Ryan stared at Laufey with an unreadable expression. "I must say, for a king of a savage race, you're quite merciful. However..."
Puchi—
Under the disbelieving gazes of Laufey and Loki, Ryan reversed his grip and plunged the giant blade into Loki's chest, then tossed the stiffened Loki off the top of the hundreds-of-meters-tall Stark Tower like a piece of trash.
Ryan then pointed the blood-stained giant blade at the stunned Laufey and sneered, "I don't plan on sparing your family, Laufey!"
"Who do you think you are, daring to invade my Earth!"
Watching Loki being flung off the building from the blade, Laufey's eyes gradually filled with rage. Massive ice blades appeared on both his arms as he pointed them at Ryan. "You are seeking death! This entire city will be razed to the ground because of you!"
"My children, kill him! Kill all the Midgardians!!!"
When Loki was born, he was naturally small and thus discarded by Laufey according to the Frost Giants' law of survival of the fittest.
But now that Loki had grown up, although he wasn't as tall or strong as a normal Frost Giant, he wasn't weak at all—he had even taken the throne of Asgard.
Since Laufey had no other offspring in the thousand years after abandoning Loki, it would be a lie to say he wasn't interested in Loki now!
But now, the heir he had finally come to value had been killed right before his eyes. Laufey was utterly enraged!
Following Laufey's roar, endless snarls echoed from the Bifrost beam. Frost Giants, mostly three meters tall, were teleported through the beam and charged toward Ryan!
Seeing the torrent of Frost Giants rushing toward him, Ryan didn't feel the slightest bit of fear. Instead, he became more excited than ever before.
Battle! Awesome!
A bloodthirsty smile played on Ryan's lips. "Riot, One-Hit Kill Mode!"
'Understood, Master!'
After Riot responded in Ryan's mind, eight tentacles instantly sprouted from Ryan's back, each tipped with a blade gleaming with a cold light!
Ryan lunged forward, both hands transformed into giant blades. He hacked and slashed through the charging Frost Giants, taking one down with every stroke!
The eight tentacles controlled by Riot were no less lethal; each thrust pierced a Frost Giant's heart, absorbing their life energy and the phenethylamine from their brains!
The Frost Giants' life energy replenished Ryan's spent power, while the phenethylamine acted as a stimulant for him.
Thus, the frantic slaughter of one against many didn't make Ryan feel tired at all; instead, he grew more courageous and fierce as the battle raged!
Single-handedly, he blocked the icy torrent surging from the Bifrost!
With two giant blades and eight tentacles, he literally piled up two icy blue and bloody mountains of corpses on the roof of Tony Stark's Stark Tower!
As for why there were two mountains of corpses?
Because not a single Frost Giant body struck by Ryan remained intact; they were all split in two, falling to either side with their organs spilling everywhere!
Fortunately, the roof of Tony Stark's Stark Tower was spacious enough, and the Frost Giants' body temperatures were low enough that their blood froze upon spilling. Otherwise, the entire building might have been drenched in their dark blue blood!
This insane and powerful display by Ryan didn't just shock Laufey, who was commanding the Frost Army; it also stunned the billions of Earth's viewers watching the live stream!
Is... Is this how superheroes fight?
So the battles of superheroes are this... this cruel? Ruthless? Or brutal... why do all these adjectives sound so savage?
Because the battle scenes were so R-rated, they left the audience feeling that there was absolutely no room for "truth, kindness, and beauty"!
And because Asgardian technology far surpassed Earth's, governments around the world couldn't even shut down the stream. They could only watch helplessly as this bloody scene was broadcast to electronic devices across the globe!
Watching his warriors being mowed down by Ryan like grass, Laufey could take it no longer and raised his giant ice blade once more!
As if receiving a signal, a different kind of movement came from the Bifrost beam. This time, the roars were louder and more feral, accompanied by heavy thuds of footsteps!
It was as if some prehistoric behemoth was about to appear!
