What Thor summoned his hammer for was now painfully obvious, needing no explanation.
It was clearly because he couldn't shut down Loki's magic on the Rainbow Bridge, so he decided to destroy it!
Indeed, everyone's guesses were spot-on.
BOOM!
After summoning his hammer, Thor wasted no words, immediately swinging it down hard onto the Rainbow Bridge.
With a violent burst of energy, a large crater appeared on the bridge, and cracks spread outwards.
"What are you doing?"
Loki was stunned, deeply shocked, and couldn't believe Thor would do such a thing.
This guy, he's actually destroying the Rainbow Bridge, which is so important to Asgard, just to save the Frost Giants, their enemies?
"Stop it!"
"What in the world are you doing!"
"If you destroy the Rainbow Bridge, you'll never see her again!"
Loki shouted repeatedly at Thor from behind, but Thor acted as if he hadn't heard a word, remaining unmoved.
He just kept smashing the Rainbow Bridge with his hammer, again and again.
"In the future, I would actually go this far for the Frost Giants?"
Thor stared at the screen, at himself, and found it so unbelievable, even slightly incomprehensible.
The Frost Giants perished, and that was that. Why would he go to such lengths to save them?
What had happened in the future to cause such a drastic change in him?
Boom! Boom! Boom!
On the screen, Thor swung his hammer again and again, and the Rainbow Bridge was gradually smashed to the point of collapse.
Loki could no longer hold back and rushed towards Thor, trying to stop him.
"Forgive me, Jane!"
Thor muttered this sentence, and finally slammed the hammer down hard on the Rainbow Bridge.
"Jane? Who is she?"
The Thor in the audience was stunned. He had never heard this name before.
Could this be someone he would meet in the future?
Judging by his conversation with Loki, it seemed that this person was very important to him.
Boom!
Before Thor could figure out what was happening, a terrifying energy storm suddenly erupted outwards.
The energy storm was so immense that it knocked both Thor and Loki over, sending them tumbling towards the bottom of the Rainbow Bridge.
At this critical moment, Odin appeared just in time.
He grabbed Thor's leg, and Thor, in turn, grabbed Loki's weapon.
The three of them – father and sons – were strung together on the Rainbow Bridge, with Odin clinging to the broken bridge, pulling his sons.
His two sons were suspended in the air, swaying back and forth.
The video playback had reached this point, which was basically what everyone had predicted. It looked like Loki was about to fall into the Cosmic Abyss.
"I could have done it, Father!"
"For you, for all of us!"
Loki floated in the air, looking up at Odin and shouting.
"No, Loki!" Odin said to Loki with a pained expression.
He could understand Loki's feelings, but Loki's actions were extreme.
After hearing Odin's words, Loki was deeply struck and completely disheartened. Tears welled up in his eyes as he released his grip on his weapon.
He began to fall into the Cosmic Abyss, quickly disappearing from sight.
"No, Loki!" Thor's heartbreaking roar echoed across the big screen.
The scene froze there.
"No, Loki, why did you let go!" The real Thor in the audience was also quite agitated.
"After Loki fell into the Cosmic Abyss, he had an encounter. A shadowy figure, very likely Thanos, showed him the true power of the Tesseract."
"So, Loki started stealing the Tesseract, opening a portal, and leading the Chitauri to invade New York."
Nick Fury didn't pay any mind to Thor's emotions and addressed everyone present.
Everyone nodded in agreement; the events seemed to have unfolded roughly like that.
After Loki fell into the Cosmic Abyss, Heimdall was unable to see any trace of him. Odin and Thor both believed Loki was dead.
It wasn't until several years later that Loki showed up on Earth, causing trouble, that Asgard discovered him.
Then, to stop Loki, Odin didn't hesitate to use a lot of "dark energy" and sent Thor to Earth as well.
The events that followed were thus connected.
The images that had just played filled in some of the missing pieces of the puzzle for everyone.
"So, if that fight between Thor and Loki didn't happen, then the Battle of New York wouldn't have happened either?"
Captain America glanced at Thor with a meaningful look, and everyone else turned their eyes to him as well.
Because what Captain America said made sense, to a certain extent.
"Why are you all looking at me like that? Do you think I wanted Loki to fall into the Cosmic Abyss?" Thor said, a little displeased. "I don't want to see that happen any more than you do!"
"I have to say, this is a headache, Thor. Is your father a bit partial to you?" Tony Stark rubbed his temples, feeling a slight headache. "The fight between you two brothers is clearly a classic case of failed family education."
"Because Odin favored Thor and neglected Loki, which made Loki extremely imbalanced."
"This imbalance accumulated in his heart for a long time, and finally erupted, causing Loki to cause trouble in Asgard."
This was rather obvious.
Loki wanted to contend for the throne, but his real goal wasn't the throne itself. He simply wanted to be on equal footing with Thor, nothing more!
This was truly a typical family drama of "sons vying for favor."
And this kind of problem was the trickiest.
If Loki's suppressed emotions didn't find a release, even if they stopped him once, there was no guarantee he wouldn't try again.
"Is that it? Did Father and I neglect Loki too much in the past?" Thor also fell into deep thought.
"No matter what, Thor, you already know Loki wants to destroy Jotunheim. When you go back, you can prepare in advance!"
Captain America said to Thor again with a serious expression, "Try to avoid the worst-case scenario!"
"I will!" Thor nodded solemnly. "If I really go back, I'll definitely stop Loki beforehand!"
Thor had already made his decision in his heart.
He absolutely could not let Loki fall into the Cosmic Abyss again.
