Observing Thor's actions, Natasha couldn't help but facepalm.
"What's wrong?" Thor was still oblivious to his actions. He held his hammer and asked with a puzzled look, "Why are you two looking at me like that? Is there something on my face?"
"It looks like you have the word 'Idiot' written on your forehead," Fang Mo casually remarked.
"What?"
Thor was clearly confused as well. However, before he could seek clarification, a roar erupted, and Hulk angrily stood up, charging towards Thor like a wild beast.
In the original story, Thor and the Hulk were archenemies. They had clashed numerous times, but in Thor 3, the Hulk wasn't a match for Thor. Thor's awakening as the King of Gods played a role in this, but it was also because Hulk had spent considerable time in the outside world, becoming less prone to anger.
However, at this moment, it was still far from Ragnarok, and Hulk could barely speak coherently. His anger was overpowering.
On the other hand, Thor wielded his hammer. While it was a weapon, it was also a restraint given to him by Odin.
If Thor could defeat the Hulk in this exchange, it would be nothing short of miraculous.
The two adversaries clashed for less than three rounds before Hulk grabbed Thor's legs, smashing him around. As Thor was being pummeled, he began questioning his life choices. This alien was unbelievably strong... Gamora, the woman he had encountered earlier, was weak in comparison, so why were her kin so ridiculously powerful?
Thor, with his single-mindedness, still hadn't realized the truth. He believed Hulk was some kind of reinforcement sent by the enemy. After all, both Gamora and Hulk were green...
Unable to bear watching any longer, Fang Mo intervened.
"Alright, Hulk, calm down for now."
Raising his hand, Fang Mo activated his powers, suspending Hulk and Thor on opposite sides.
Hulk clearly hadn't had enough. He struggled in mid-air, growling angrily at Thor, but there was no focal point for him to exert force.
"Let me introduce you to each other," Fang Mo said, pointing to Thor. "He is Thor, the current leader of the Avengers. He believes he is very powerful and wants to be the boss."
Then, he pointed to Hulk on the other side.
"This is Hulk, Dr. Banner's alter ego."
Fang Mo winked at Thor and added, "In short, this big guy with a bad temper just woke up and is very interested in the title of 'Strongest Avenger.' Let me speak on his behalf... Anyone who tries to stop him from becoming the boss will be crushed by him. I hope you all understand, okay?"
"Roar!"
In sync with Fang Mo's words, Hulk let out a vigorous roar.
"Uh..."
Thor's brain seemed to be lacking, or perhaps he was a bit disoriented from the beating. After a moment of bewilderment, he directly asked, "What did you say? Shouldn't the 'Strongest Avenger' be me? I am the son of Odin, the King of Asgard..."
As soon as he finished speaking, the entire scene fell into an eerie silence.
Not only Hulk, even Natasha stared at him speechlessly.
"With your intelligence alone... It's hard for me to work for you." Fang Mo rubbed his temples, sighing helplessly. "Why doesn't Loki share half of his brain with you?"
"The Asgardians never stoop low to use deceitful schemes!" Thor proudly declared. "This is the glory of the Gods!"
"Fine, do as you please." Fang Mo spread his hands, realizing it was difficult to advise stubborn fools. He canceled the force field and turned to walk towards the cabin door.
Natasha hurriedly followed suit.
Before long, a deafening roar shook the surroundings.
Due to the enemy invasion, chaos engulfed the entire Helicarrier.
After leaving the equipment compartment, Fang Mo and Natasha soon encountered a busy and anxious Nick Fury. They saw him constantly issuing commands over the radio, "Stark, the left turbine has malfunctioned. If we lose another turbine, we'll plummet from the sky..."
"Hey, always busy, aren't you?" Fang Mo greeted Nick Fury with a smile.
"You..." Nick Fury started getting a headache as soon as he saw Fang Mo. If he hadn't provoked him earlier, the argument wouldn't have escalated so fiercely. Sometimes he truly didn't understand what this guy was thinking.
But the situation was urgent now, so he reluctantly said, "Right now, you and Stark are the only ones who can fly. Can you help repair the turbine group?"
"Sure, but you have to do me a favor first," Fang Mo said.
"What favor?" Nick Fury asked.
"You're at least a captain now." Fang Mo smiled and said, "Can you find a broom and perform a mid-air somersault trick for me?"
"...You don't want to help with the repairs?" Nick Fury took a deep breath. If he ever died one day, it would definitely be from being infuriated by this guy. "Anyway, I'm really busy right now. If you don't have anything important to do, just go play with the broom by yourself. I have plenty of other things to take care of..."
Before he could finish his sentence, a sudden loud bang resounded, and the entire Helicarrier tilted, causing objects to fall to one side.
"What's happening!?" Nick Fury shouted, gripping the control console.
"Another turbine is damaged!!!" Amidst the chaos, someone shouted, "All engines on the left side of the carrier are damaged, Director! The Helicarrier is going to crash!"
"Oh, damn it!" Nick Fury yelled. "Haven't we captured the enemy yet? Everyone, prepare for emergency evacuation..."
But before he could finish his sentence, a hand suddenly landed on his shoulder.
Nick turned his head and saw Fang Mo. It's worth mentioning that Fang Mo wasn't holding onto anything at the moment, yet his feet stood firmly on the tilted floor, unaffected.
"Do you believe in gravity?" Fang Mo asked with a smile.
"What are you trying to say?" Nick Fury yelled, gripping the control console tightly. "It's not the time to play around! Didn't you always say that magic is all-powerful? Quickly use your invincible magic and find a solution!"
Fang Mo remained silent.
He simply made a slow lifting gesture with his hand.
The next second, the entire Helicarrier abruptly shook.
"Co-commander!" a special agent operating the carrier looked up in astonishment.
