Chapter 958: Summoned

Chapter 958: Summoned

Zilala~~

The first-level base of SHIELD in New Mexico was filled with sparks and electric lights at this time, it was as if it had suffered some kind of electromagnetic attack. Although the entire base seemed to be under attack, the people inside were orderly and not panicked.

The researchers quickly ran towards the outside of the base under the protection of the soldiers, while the rest rushed to the center of the base to put out any open fires. It was obvious that this was not the first time they had experienced such a situation.

Huh~

“Hey! I thought it would be stable for a while, but I didn’t expect something to go wrong, and this time it’s more powerful than last time!” A middle-aged researcher complained as he ran out under the protection of the soldiers.

“Didn’t you already prepare mentally? After all, this thing is not a conventional weapon, and it’s normal to have these reactions. However, we finally achieved some results after such a long period of research” An older man walking in front of him spoke calmly in response to the researcher’s complaints.

The middle-aged researcher replied to the old man, “I understand, but I can’t shake the feeling that we’re running out of time.”

The old man reassured him, “Don’t fret, once things settle down we can pick up where we left off. Hopefully, before the next outbreak, we’ll have found a way to control it.”

Despite the tireless efforts of the senior researchers, their progress in studying Mj?lnir, left behind by Thor in New Mexico, has been slow. Without the complete information from Asgard, they have only been able to decrypt one percent of it.

As the old man finished his words, a deafening roar echoed from the core of the base behind them, followed by a black object hurtling into the sky with a thundering force.

Zi Zi Zi!

Brush!

Amidst the thunderous noise, the black object shot toward New York at an incredible speed. It was none other than Mj?lnir, which had been studied by SHIELD. After a prolonged period of inactivity, the Asgardian tool had finally responded to someone’s call.

The middle-aged researcher, trembling, exclaimed in shock as he watched Mj?lnir fly off into the distance, “Professor!… The hammer flew away! It really flew away!”

Hoo!

However, as the middle-aged researcher finished his exclamation, the old man who had witnessed the event collapsed in agitation. If Mj?lnir truly escaped, their research would have been for naught, and the results would not be enough to construct a comprehensive theory.

“Professor!!” The middle-aged researcher shouted in concern as he rushed to support the old man.

“Quickly notify headquarters! We need assistance!!” The old man, supported by his student, exclaimed after catching his breath.

“The situation has been reported to headquarters,” The Captain of the battle team escorting them replied promptly.

Now, there was no need for retreat. The individuals who had caused the chaos and electrical riots in the base had fled, and the base would soon return to normal. However, the S-level item had escaped again, and at such high speed, the chances of retrieving it were slim.

“We must…definitely get it back!” The old man said with determination before he passed out due to his anxiousness.

“Professor!!”

…

As the chaos unfolded at SHIELD’s primary base in New Mexico and Mj?lnir, which had been dormant, suddenly unleashed its power of thunder and escaped. Thor, in his apartment in New York, paced back and forth in the living room and the expression on his face changed constantly.

“Why did Mj?lnir respond so positively to my call this time? I haven’t fully regained my powers as Thor yet!” Thor muttered to himself as he paced back and forth in his apartment, his eyes flickering with a light blue glow.

It seemed that Thor’s call had caused Mj?lnir to suddenly go berserk at the SHIELD base in New Mexico and flee the base, flying away. After Jane Foster hung up on him and blocked him, Thor, confused by her behavior, stopped trying to contact her for the time being and attempted to summon Mj?lnir again.

Thor was surprised when his summoning was answered so clearly by Mj?lnir, unlike his previous attempts where he barely received a response. Now, he could sense Mj?lnir coming towards him rapidly.

“Haha! It seems that coming back to Earth was the right decision. I wouldn’t have known when I would have been able to summon Mj?lnir back!” Thor exclaimed in joy as he confirmed that his Mj?lnir was indeed flying towards him quickly.

He then walked quickly to the window of the living room, eager to see his long-lost hammer for the first time as Mj?lnir flew in his direction.

Ci Ci Ci Ci~

As Thor waited by the window for Mj?lnir’s return, the SHIELD team assigned to monitor him in the apartment across from his, heard him talking to himself through their headsets.

“Captain, what does the s-target mean? He’s talking about something?” One of the team members asked the Captain in a low voice.

Their equipment had malfunctioned while Tony was there, but it returned to normal after he left. It looks like Tony didn’t mind Thor being monitored by them.

“He’s summoning something? Is he a sorcerer? Isn’t he an alien who is friendly to Earth?” The Captain muttered, intrigued, as he put on a headset to listen in on Thor’s conversation.

Suddenly, a thunderous roar echoed from the sky above New York and it was as if a bolt of thunder had struck out of nowhere, and it was rapidly getting closer.
