American comics: Starting with Luke the Maker

"What are you talking about? It's just the three of us here." Loki frowned, seeing Kang's unusual appearance.

"No, someone has sealed this place off. My connection to the outside time has been severed." Kang also looked blank, as if this was the first time in his millennia-long life that he had encountered such a situation.

"Severed? What do you mean?" Loki sensed something ominous in Kang's tone and expression. He analyzed that Kang wasn't deceiving them, or rather, the other party, who had the upper hand, had no need to deceive them in such a matter.

"It means that I have lost my perception of external time. I can no longer observe and control the timelines of other universes. Everything is gradually spiraling out of control. If the seal is permanent, even if you don't kill me, the Multiversal War will come sooner or later." Kang's emotions fluctuated for a moment, then he returned to normal.

This situation was beyond his observation and expectation, which made him feel a little surprised and curious. As for panic? He was already looking for a successor and preparing to face his own death, so what was there to panic about?

"Isn't that perfect?" Sylvie twirled the blade in her hand, gripping it tightly in a fighting stance.

"Wait, wait, wait!" Loki quickly turned around and blocked Sylvie, separating her from Kang.

"Get out of the way!" Sylvie scolded, looking at Loki in front of her.

"Everything is still unclear, there may really be unknown people and dangers, I think he is still useful." Loki racked his brains to persuade Sylvie.

"Kill him, and everything will be over." Sylvie held the blade against Loki's chin, signaling him to move aside again.

"That's not necessarily true." Loki vaguely guessed who the person might be. He was feeling conflicted and wasn't sure what choice to make.

Should he watch Kang die?

Or save him?

"I get it, you want to inherit the Time Variance Authority, you want to become his successor! You want to control the greatest power in this universe!" Sylvie seemed to understand something, her eyes full of disappointment as she questioned Loki word by word.

"I don't!" Loki felt wronged. Besides, what is the Time Variance Authority compared to the greatest power? Organizations like the Energy Bank, full of monsters, were much stronger than it.

"Then get out of the way!" Sylvie flicked the blade, signaling Loki to move aside once again.

"Are you really going to kill him?" Loki looked at Sylvie, who was determined, and felt a hard object in his palm. The restored memories immediately told him what it was from the touch. Thinking of Luke's words, and looking at Sylvie's increasingly disappointed expression, Loki gritted his teeth and made a choice in his heart.

Sylvie declared her determination with silence.

"Okay, okay, but don't use that, use this to deal with him." Loki took two steps back, spread out his right palm, revealing the bullet in his palm.

Looking at the bullet, Sylvie's expression towards Loki was like, are you kidding me?

"Try it." Loki was a little embarrassed, but he still held the bullet in his palm and handed it to Sylvie.

Looking at the determined Loki, Sylvie was silent for a moment, then freed up one hand and took the bullet from Loki's palm. Then, to their surprise, the bullet spread out like a watermark, extended, reshaped, and transformed into a dagger-like, sharp blade in Sylvie's hand.

Sylvie looked at Loki, and Loki, who had made his choice in his heart, immediately moved his feet and moved his body aside.

"Very well, it seems you have made your choice. To be honest, a little disappointing." Kang also saw the choice Loki had made. He sat in his seat, watching this scene unfold, watching the confrontation, quarrel, compromise, concession, and execution of the two Lokis.

Sylvie took a stride with her shapely legs, supported herself on the table with her hand, and jumped nimbly. As her body landed on the table, she also plunged the dagger in her hand into Kang's chest.

Uh...

Pierced through the chest by the dagger-like blade, the blade pierced him and the back of the chair together. Kang's eyes towards Sylvie did not show the fear of death, but rather a slightly relaxed and strange smile.

"See you later." Kang tried his best to say softly.

"There will be no later, sir."

A clear voice suddenly sounded from the direction of the office door. The closed door was pushed open from the outside, and a man walked in slowly from outside the door, accompanied by the lingering sound.

"Luke? I knew it!" Seeing the person, Loki first breathed a sigh of relief, and then had the urge to punch that face. It was because of him that he was thrown into this ghostly place! Although he had gained a lot here, it did not affect his strong resentment towards Luke.

After all, making you resent him while also having to be grateful to him, that was Luke's consistent style.

"Who is he?" Having just killed the mastermind she most wanted to get rid of, Sylvie felt a little empty. Seeing Luke, her eyes subconsciously looked at Loki.

"He is Luke, a technology merchant. I suggest you don't have any involvement with him in any sense." Loki reminded with full resentment.

"That sounds like a pity. You clearly gained a touching relationship, didn't you? I wonder how Odin would feel if he knew that his son had fallen in love with a female version of himself from another universe.

Perhaps he would launch a Gungnir across the universe?" Luke said, ignoring Loki's gradually darkening face. He bypassed the wide desk, came to the dead Kang, and a layer of nanite gloves appeared on his hand. He pinched Kang's face and looked at it left and right, as if to determine whether he was really dead or not.

The dagger blade that pierced Kang's chest gradually turned into light spots and merged into Kang's body in the surprised eyes of Loki and Sylvie.

"What are you doing? Checking if he's completely dead?" Loki walked to Luke's side and asked, watching Luke's movements. He knew very well that Luke must have come here because there was something Luke wanted. Luke was a very purposeful person who wouldn't do anything unnecessary.

"He's completely dead, there's no doubt about that." Luke took a step back, and a part of the gloves on his hand separated and fell to the ground.

"Then are you ready to deal with the multiverse war?" Loki was silent for a moment and asked tentatively: "According to what he said, once he dies, the timelines he forcibly gathered together will completely split and then extend into various time branches. In the end, the Kangs of various universe worlds will launch a multiverse war, conquering all the multiverses they know."

"Don't worry about that. The multiverse is a very complex concept. It is not static, and not every one has the value of conquest." Luke patted Loki on the shoulder, "What do you think I gave you that bullet for?"

"You tampered with it?" Loki subconsciously looked at Kang's corpse.

"Do you know that similar multiverses, the same souls have matching frequencies. If you can find this frequency, you can build a soul network that spans all the multiverses where you exist. It can bring you absolute convenience, and it can also bring you huge risks.

Everyone knows that physically disconnected servers are safe, while those with network connections cannot be guaranteed to be safe. Isn't he worried that evil versions of him will start a multiverse war? Now he doesn't need to worry.

The soul network covers all connected individual Kangs, and the [poison] attached to the dagger will upload and synchronize everything about the dead Kang."

"What do you mean?" Sylvie jumped down from the table, stood next to Loki, and asked, looking at Luke.

"It means that the death state of this Kang will cover all the Kangs he knows and doesn't know in his consciousness. If you still can't understand, then you just need to know that the death of one Kang is equal to the death of a group of Kangs." Luke finally gave the most straightforward answer.

"In other words, there will be no Kang in the multiverse anymore?" Loki's eyes widened. He knew that what you gave me was not simple, but he didn't expect it to be so vicious?

Regardless of whether it's a good Kang or a bad Kang, they're all wiped out in one fell swoop?

"That's not necessarily true." Luke gave an answer that made Loki's head hurt. Without Loki asking further, Luke took the initiative to say: "You can't be sure that some individuals will mutate and have some powers and characteristics that are different from other Kangs. Once this possibility occurs, then this mutated Kang cannot be 100% certain of death.

But it doesn't matter, does it? This soul poison will be attached to them like a bone gangrene, bringing them layers of death and doom. The infected will also be like light bulbs, and we will gradually lock their soul coordinates.

As long as we solve most of them, and then pinpoint and eliminate those mutants who dare to resist, the trouble is not difficult to solve, is it?"

Loki and Sylvie were completely silent. They could already imagine the horror of this technology.

This is a weapon technology that pinpointedly eliminates a certain life in all multiverses. It doesn't matter if you die in one universe, there are thousands of multiverses of you alive, but this technology eliminates you from the multiverse level.

Once and for all.

One kill X kill.

"Your mission is complete, do you need me to send you home?" Luke looked at Loki and Sylvie.

"We can go." Sylvie instinctively developed a sense of respect and distance towards Luke. She took out the teleporter and wanted to open a portal, but the teleporter seemed to be out of order. No matter how she pressed it, the golden portal never appeared.

"Don't waste your energy, this is a sealed and isolated space, that thing won't work at all." Luke kindly reminded, looking at Sylvie's blank expression.

"Let's go out, it's not good to stay in a cat's belly for too long." Without waiting for the two to ask again, Luke said and raised his head and called out.

Everything has not changed.

They are still in the castle.

"It seems nothing has changed." Loki carefully looked around and said awkwardly to Luke.

"That's because your perception needs to be improved." Luke pointed to the teleporter in Sylvie's hand, and then said: "You can try that device again now."

Sylvie pressed the teleporter again, and a familiar, golden door suddenly appeared in front of them.

"What are you going to do with the Time Variance Authority? Dissolve it? It doesn't seem to be needed to maintain that sacred timeline anymore." Loki turned his head to look at Luke and asked before following Sylvie into the portal. Although it wasn't long, he still liked some of the people inside. For these people, he was willing to ask one more question.

"I have already got what I wanted, and the next thing is up to you. I hope you like my gift." Luke smiled at him, took a step back and disappeared into a cloud of colorful light, along with him, there was also an orange cat, and a dog-like mysterious creature that had shrunk countless times, but still made Loki feel familiar.

Seeing Alioth, who looked like a dog, Loki's eyes twitched uncontrollably, and then he stepped into the golden portal without looking back, disappearing with the door in this ruin of time.

Perhaps in the future, with the special nature of this ruin, another Alioth will be born, but that has nothing to do with Loki, right?

Time Variance Authority.

Loki had just appeared here when he was greeted by a huge stone statue that made his blood rush instantly! It was his statue! Detailed and lifelike!

"Director, I was just looking for you, where did you go?" A familiar voice sounded behind Loki, and Loki turned around to see Mobius walking towards him in a hurry.

"Mobius?" Loki shouted in surprise.

"Don't be so enthusiastic, like it's been a long time." Mobius looked disgusted. "As the director, you shouldn't leave all the affairs to us subordinates, you should help a little."

"Director? When did I become the director of the Time Variance Authority?" Loki was a little dazed, but suddenly turned around and looked at his huge statue behind him. He already understood what Luke's gift was.

"Time Variance Authority? What kind of organization is that?" Mobius frowned.

"Isn't it the Time Variance Authority?" Loki turned his head in astonishment and looked at Mobius.

"Perhaps you need to prove yourself, Director Loki." Mobius gave him a strange look, "This is the Place of Time Loops, the Multiversal Reincarnation Space. It is a subordinate organization of the Energy Bank responsible for handling multiverse affairs. We regularly use various worlds and dimensions to train and select the most elite and fierce warriors to solve problems for us in various multiverses."

"For example?" Loki asked, "I mean our enemies."

"There are too many. I have a problem that needs to be solved immediately. Do you remember the Council of Kangs? The various Kangs of the multiverse gathered together to resist us. We solved most of them, but there are still some who slipped through the net and avoided our attacks by various methods. We have now found the whereabouts of a variant Kang and are in need of arranging a strong task force to solve him." Mobius waved the file bag in his hand.
