"Being pretty is enough, having no function is even better."
"Why is that?" Mobius asked, somewhat puzzled.
"If I can't prove it's useful, then no one can prove it's not."
Loki spent about ten minutes ransacking all the Infinity Gems in the archive, including those on the desk, in the drawers, and even those left in the corners of the tables. Mobius watched him search high and low, frowning, "If you really want them, I can contact the warehouse and send you a box."
"No, no, no!" Loki immediately waved his hands, then stopped in front of Mobius, extended a finger and said,
"These are enough. As for the rest... Are you sure you want to blow this place up? Then, please make sure to blow it clean. Don't leave a single gemstone behind. It would be even better if you could record a video while doing it."
Mobius slowly squinted his eyes. He always felt that Loki was not up to anything good, but he still hadn't reacted to what Loki planned to do, and at this moment, Loki had already started his work.
He picked up the thick directory on the table and started to flip through it. Mobius stood next to him, then said, "What are you looking for? Female Loki's file?"
"Sort of." Loki nodded, flipped a page, and said, "But actually, I have already read about her life in my ascended state, but I want to know more about the Asgard she belonged to, why did Frigga give birth to a daughter there?"
"Why shouldn't she?" Mobius asked, somewhat puzzled. "If boys could be born, girls could be too..."
Loki looked up at him and said, "Then why are all the boys born in so many cosmos, and only that one universe gave birth to a girl?"
"If as you say, the possibilities are equal, then it should be half boys and half girls. Even if the probability is uneven, it shouldn't be that there is only one female. And since there is only her, it means that there must be something special about that universe."
"The time of ascending above the cosmos was too short. I could only see the destinies related to me and didn't have time to see the rise and fall history of every Asgard. Maybe the secret is here... let me see...oh, found it!"
"Sylvie Lushton! Wait, why is she called Sylvie?" Loki squinted his eyes, saying, "Isn't she Loki? If it weren't for the last name, I wouldn't recognize her."
"She said her name was Sylvie." Mobius recalled, "But at that time, my relationship with Ravona wasn't very good. I didn't participate much in Sylvie's trial, so I'm not really sure what the deal was."
"Let me see, the Asgard and Avengers of this universe...Thor...here! Wait, 'she'? How does it have a feminine pronoun here? Female Thor?!"
Loki exclaimed in surprise, followed up by flipping two pages backwards, saying: "Iron Man 'she,' Captain America 'she,' Supreme Magician 'she'... Is this a female universe?? Wait, how has Hela become a male??...Gender Swap Universe?!"
"Everyone's gender in this world has been reversed." Loki widened her eyes, looking at the contents of the directory, she said, "No wonder Loki is a female, because Odin and Thor are also female, while Hela and Frigga are male..."
"Not surprising." Mobius nodded his head, saying: "In the vast universe, anything is possible. In some cosmos, all the superheroes have turned into various animals. In others, people's good and evil have been reversed. Gender reversal is not too far-fetched."
"Given this, what is this ability to break 'one side wall' mentioned in the prophecy?" Loki touched her chin, standing before the directory pondering. After a while, she shook her head, saying, "Daydreaming here probably won't get us anywhere. Let's go find Miss Sylvie and ask her what's going on."
Having said that, Loki looked towards Mobius saying, "Since you were the ones who let her go, you should know where she is now, right?"
Mobius pursed his lips and coughed awkwardly twice, then said, "Actually, we don't know either..."
"For starters, we didn't know back then that the Director wouldn't come back, so things were done hastily. In short, we gave her a transuniversal controller for traveling around different universes and let her go. Where she ended up, we don't know."
"Secondly, we are not supposed to know because if we did, those spies loyal to the Director in the Time Management Bureau might also know. So, it's better to give the transuniversal device directly to this young girl."
"Asgardians are the Immortal Species. Although she looks just like a young girl, she's at least several decades old. She is very smart and should know how to hide."
Loki covered her forehead, showing some helplessness. After some thought, she looked at Mobius and asked, "You've spent some time around her previously. Where do you think she could be hiding?"
Before Mobius even had time to answer, Loki reminded him, "If you were in her situation, where would you hide?"
"I'm not like her, I've been a long-time employee of the Time Management Bureau. I know quite a few cracks and crevices in unnoticeable timelines to hide in, and even some time-looping whirlpools. Although they're not stable, as long as their pattern is mastered, it could be even safer."
