Chapter 723 The Unreliable Brothers
Just as the Temple II spaceship was preparing to leave Asgard through the wormhole, Loki, who had been in stealth mode, finally couldn't resist the urge to "beat a dog when it's down."

As the god of mischief, Loki is not very cunning.

Not to mention, he had suffered such a great loss at Thanos's hands, how could he not want revenge?

Loki, now holding a dagger, stealthily approached the base of the Templar II engine, intending to destroy it.

The dagger forged by the dwarves successfully pierced the engine, immediately producing a screeching sound and sparks.

Seeing that the spaceship was tilting, Loki quickly broke into a gleeful smile.

So what if you're the cosmic overlord? You still have to suffer when it's your turn to be humiliated.

"Report: There's an unexplained problem with the spaceship's engine. We are investigating the cause..."

With the engine malfunctioning, the Temple II spaceship experienced noticeable turbulence. Fearing being implicated and held responsible, the ship's pilots immediately reported the problem to Thanos.

"waste!!!"

Thanos, who was in a hurry to leave and was in a bad mood, subconsciously cursed out loud.

However, considering that the current situation was not suitable for losing his temper, Thanos quickly suppressed his anger and said, "Pull up the surveillance footage from the engine. I need to know what exactly happened."

There's a strong guy like Mike guarding the area below.

If the spaceship couldn't leave Asgard successfully, Thanos could almost imagine that his situation would be even worse afterward.

Therefore, the most important thing right now is to get the spaceship safely into the wormhole, so as to get away from Mike, this "trouble".

"Yes~"

Seeing that he was not being blamed, the spaceship operator felt relieved and quickly retrieved the video feed from the engine.

Loki's smug face was reflected on the screen.

"The God of Mischief? So it was a little cutie causing trouble..." Thanos's face showed a contemptuous expression as he commanded, "You continue to pilot the spaceship toward the wormhole. I'll take care of the engine problem."

If you can't handle Mike, you can at least handle Loki.

Thanos, who had previously suffered a loss at Mike's hands, now needed to vent his anger.

It could be said that Loki's actions gave Thanos a reason to vent his anger.

“Destroying one engine doesn’t seem enough; I need to collect more interest…” Loki, who had damaged the engine in front of him, crawled toward the other nearby engines with a dagger in his hand beneath the spaceship.

The Temple II, Thanos's main mode of transportation, was not only enormous in size but also had several power units.

There are also several corresponding propulsion engines.

"Hey~ Who gave you the guts to tamper with my spaceship?" Thanos stood on the edge of the deck, arms crossed, looking down at Loki with a furtive expression.

Perhaps he was too focused on his surroundings, Loki didn't notice what was happening around him at all.

He was startled when he heard Thanos's voice in his ear.

"Uh, Thanos..." Startled, Loki quickly hid the dagger behind his back, forced a stiff smile, and said, "Don't misunderstand, I meant no harm. Your spaceship is just too magnificent, and I couldn't help but want to get closer to admire it."

"Yes, I'm here to admire the spaceship..."

As Loki spoke more and more fluently, the expression on his face changed from fear to "adoration," almost fooling himself.

All I can say is that he truly deserves the title of God of Deception.

"Is that so? Clever tricks won't work on me." Thanos's face darkened as he realized he'd been fooled.

He then clenched his fist, ready to teach Loki a lesson.

After all, this guy didn't even hide his tools properly when he was lying.

That's a complete insult to people's intelligence.

"Thor, help!"

Sensing danger approaching, Loki abandoned all pretense of decorum, dropped his dagger, and turned to run.

At the same time, he didn't forget to call out to his brother for help.

Thor had just finished untying the Asgardian people who were bound with Heimdall when he looked up and saw his "beloved" brother being punched away by Thanos.

During the fall, they happened to fall into a spacetime turbulence.

In the blink of an eye, it disappeared from sight.

"NO~"

It is known that time and space are very unstable in spacetime turbulence, which poses a great danger.

Thor, watching helplessly as his brother was in danger, angrily leaped toward Sanctuary II, ready to confront Thanos, the culprit who had caused all of this.

"Open the spaceship's protective shields, let's go!"

Thanos ignored the enraged Thor and turned to command the spaceship pilots.

To Thanos, Thor's anger was insignificant.

Teaching the other party a lesson is just as easy. However, the commotion here has already caught Mike's attention.

To avoid any unforeseen complications, Thanos chose the safest approach.

That means leaving Asgard first.

"Don't even think about leaving, you coward! Give me back my brother's life..."

Thor, using his jumping ability to get close to the spaceship, saw Thanos trying to "escape," so he reached out and grabbed him without hesitation.

However, it was quickly blocked by an energy shield.

Then, in a flash, Temple Number Two disappeared into the wormhole.

Before Thor's angry expression had subsided, he was sucked into the wormhole by the storm stirred up by the spaceship.

With the wormhole coordinates closed, Temple II, along with Thor, disappeared from Asgard.

All of this happened so quickly and so bizarrely that Mike didn't even have time to intervene and save the person.

"This……"

Looking at the Asgardian people around him who were still waiting for Thor, the successor to the God-King, to settle down, Mike was speechless.

Neither of these two brothers is reliable.

"Master, thank you for helping me escape this sea of ​​suffering~"

On the other side, Nebula took advantage of Mike's momentary daze and knelt down in front of him in a submissive manner.

Now that she has escaped Thanos's control, she understands his temperament very well.

They won't easily forget being betrayed.

So, Nebula may seem to have gained her freedom now, but she still has to face Thanos's pursuit.

In this situation, she desperately needs to find a new powerful patron for protection.

In her eyes, Mike, who drove Thanos away, was undoubtedly the key player.

“I’m not your master, and I didn’t save you, so you don’t need to thank me.” Mike shook his head and stepped aside.

The word "master" sounds so shameful.

Mike stated that he is not that kind of person.

"Mike, what's going on?"

Sure enough, Scarlet Witch, having seen the situation, quickly came over.

His eyes darted back and forth between Mike and Nebula, his expression filled with resentment.

There was a hint of resentment mixed with dissatisfaction.

She had been fighting the Black Obsidian Five Generals and was unaware of what had happened on Temple Two.

However, the woman's intuition told her that the woman kneeling before Mike was definitely up to no good.

Before Mike could explain, Nebula, focused solely on survival, flattered Scarlet Witch without any regard for propriety, saying, "You must be the lady! Only a woman as beautiful as you is worthy of the master."

Women understand women best.
Nebula, who had been roaming the universe for many years, could tell at a glance that Scarlet Witch was jealous.

Moreover, in terms of appearance, Nebula, whose many organs have been replaced with mechanical prosthetics, is indeed hard to compare with Scarlet Witch, who has a hot body.

Therefore, her compliment wasn't wrong.

"You're from Thanos's army, right? Why are you calling Mike 'Master'?" Scarlet Witch's face remained cold despite the compliment, though her attitude was much better than before.

"Yes, my name is Nebula, and Thanos adopted me. But we didn't get along well..." Seeing that she had a chance, Nebula readily recounted her experiences in Thanos's army.

It sounds a bit like she's playing the victim.

Although it was very unseemly, it was surprisingly useful.

Her tragic experience with Thanos quickly aroused Scarlet Witch's sympathy.

"Mike, let's help her." In the end, Scarlet Witch even acted as Nebula's advocate, pleading with Mike on her behalf.

"It's not that I can't do it~" For Scarlet Witch's sake, Mike finally nodded.

As long as Thanos doesn't abandon his "population reduction" plan, Mike will eventually have to confront him.

Having more debts is not a burden; taking on another person from the other party's control is not a big deal.

"But please don't use the title 'Master' anymore. You can call me 'Sir'~" To avoid embarrassment, Mike devised a new title for Nebula.

"Roger that, Mr. Mike."
