Chapter 100 The Dark Secrets of the Frost Giants
"My lord, I am so sorry to have disappointed you."
"Is it just an apology? I trusted you so much, and this is the result?"
"There's a guy from Earth whose strength is so great that even Laufey..."
"Shut up. I'm giving you one last chance."
Inside the dark and cold temple of Jotunheim, a frost giant was kneeling on the ground.
He was speaking to the "Lord" who sat high above him.
It's easy to tell from his extremely respectful attitude and posture that his "master" is definitely a ruthless character.
The atmosphere has become awkward because the originally assigned task failed.
"If you can't even handle an ordinary mage, what can we trust about you?"
At this moment, a robed wizard beside the "Lord" spoke up.
The wizard's deep eyes clearly revealed a wealth of magic and wisdom.
Seeing that his "master" was indeed angry, he thought it might be better for him to negotiate himself.
"My Lord, perhaps you could give me some more support, just as you promised before."
"Are you asking the Lord to do something for you? Mind your place!"
"But that guy is definitely not an ordinary Earthling! Everyone knows how powerful Laufey is..."
The frost giant's hands trembled uncontrollably at the thought of his leader being murdered.
This trembling was a mixture of anger and fear towards Qin Wuying.
Laufee was highly respected among the Frost Giants, possessing powerful magic and strategies unmatched by other members of his race.
But in the blink of an eye, a mage from Midgard actually shattered Laufey into hero fragments.
Seeing the frost giant's performance, the robed wizard shook his head helplessly.
As a wizard, he had absolute confidence in his magic, and he might not even be able to defeat the Sorcerer Supreme of Earth.
Therefore, he felt that there were very few who could defeat Laufey on a magical level.
Either there really is a dangerous person in Midgard, or the Frost Giants are lying.
But judging from the way this guy was trembling, it didn't seem like he was making up a story to deceive them.
"Alright, if he's really as powerful as you say," "My lord" said, drawing a staff from behind his back. "Here, take this. It should be enough to deal with him."
The staff was made of a different material than ordinary materials, and it could withstand extremely high levels of radiation and damage.
In addition, there is a ring-shaped space at the very top of the staff, inlaid with a sparkling gem.
"Are you sure you want to give this away? We went through a lot of trouble to get it."
The robed wizard frowned in displeasure. If it weren't for the "master's" instructions, he certainly wouldn't have agreed to give this thing away.
Because that gem is the most sacred treasure in the universe.
"Thank you, my lord. With this treasure, and an invincible army..." A smile appeared on the Frost Giant's lips.
With such powerful assistance, it's time for Jotunheim to avenge its leader.
After being given permission, the frost giant slowly stood up and walked out of the temple.
On the boundless, dark ice plains before them, countless frost giants of their kind already stood.
Upon hearing the news of Laufey's death, they came to pay their respects and, filled with righteous indignation, demanded revenge.
"My beloved compatriots, it's time to make the enemy pay the price!"
The frost giant, wielding a staff, raised it high and let out a roar that shook the mountains.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the world, the people of Midgard, who are also the people on Earth, are still unaware of this.
"Listen to me, this thing is really dangerous."
Walking inside the space carrier, Qin Wuying had been arguing with Nick Fury the whole way, but to no avail.
"Even if you are now the deputy director, this cannot be handed over to you."
"You don't understand the situation. That thing has a lot of energy; it will reveal our location and intentions!"
"Don't worry, I know its properties very well."
After saying that, Nick Fury patted the briefcase in his hand.
Even through the outer shell of the box, Qin Wuying could still sense the powerful aura inside.
It's a kind of energy that resonates with your own frequency.
As soon as the conversation ended, Qin Wuying realized that Fury had no idea about the dangers of the Tesseract.
Anyone with expertise would not develop it so recklessly.
Just a few days after returning to Earth, Qin Wuying read some classified research materials from S.H.I.E.L.D.
The results were astonishing: many of the materials were authorized only by Fury himself.
After entrusting Tony Stark with the task of cracking the code, Qin Wuying was even more astonished.
It turns out that ever since S.H.I.E.L.D. obtained the Tesseract, Fury had been secretly using it to manufacture weapons without telling Fury.
It's important to know that Qin Wuying has consistently emphasized the prohibition of weaponizing the Rubik's Cube.
"Listen, you still don't understand how serious this is." Qin Wuying put his arm around Fury's shoulder and forcibly pulled him over.
"What exactly do you want? How do I know if you're trying to take it all for yourself?"
"You kept all that weapon design blueprints from me, and now you're framing me?!"
Qin Wuying was furious at Nick Fury's blaming attitude.
This is tantamount to handing over S.H.I.E.L.D., humanity, and the fate of Earth to an unpredictable tyrant.
The Cosmic Cube is this tyrant.
It is far beyond the control of ordinary humans, and if it gets out of control, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Seeing that Fury was stubborn and unrepentant, Qin Wuying had no choice but to give up trying to communicate with him.
He watched helplessly as Fury placed the briefcase containing the Tesseract into the deepest vault of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Only Fury knew the password to the vault.
But even if there are passwords and other security measures, so what?
Qin Wuying made up his mind to sneak in when no one was paying attention and take the Cosmic Cube.
It's much better to have it in your own hands than in Fury's.
"Sir? Sir? Are you alright?"
While Qin Wuying was in a daze, someone kept patting his back.
He finally came to his senses and found Agent Coulson standing in front of him.
"Excuse me, how long have you been here?"
"It's alright, it won't take long, only five or six minutes. I noticed you've been spacing out."
"Report to me, you can leave now."
Qin Wuying took an accident report from Agent Coulson and began to read it carefully.
The report was filled with tiny print, detailing an attack.
The incident occurred in a busy square, the perpetrator's identity is unknown, and it caused considerable damage.
When he turned to the last page, it included a candid photo of the perpetrator at the scene—
"Aren't these the frost giants of Jotunheim? What are they doing here?"
