Li Jie was waiting for Thor and Strange to bring out the Tesseract, while Thor and Strange were formulating a plan.
Strange was willing to work with Thor for the legendary Fountain of Wisdom. (Thor: I guarantee that the Fountain of Wisdom exists. I didn't lie to Strange. However, I can't guarantee that there's another Fountain of Wisdom in Odin's Vault. However, I've made a vow. If I can't help Strange get the Fountain of Wisdom, then I can't inherit the throne. I think I need to fulfill my vow.)
Of course, Strange didn't know what was going on in Thor's mind. He also didn't know that Thor was already planning his life after he didn't inherit the throne. In fact, from Thor's point of view, entrusting Thor to Odin was a good choice. Letting Thor handle all kinds of government affairs like Odin and diplomatic affairs with other divine nations? Give him a break. He'd rather stay in the orphanage and take care of the children.
"So what do you want me to do?" Strange had temporarily reached an agreement with Thor for the Fountain of Wisdom. In order to get the Fountain of Wisdom as soon as possible, he wanted to complete this task as soon as possible. However, he still needed to understand the whole thing and evaluate the risks before making a decision, just like when he performed surgery in the past.
"Oh, like I said, we're going to S.H.E.L.D. to get something. We'll leave as soon as we're done," Thor said casually, stroking his stubble.
"Go to S.H.E.L.D. to get?" Strange emphasized the word 'get'. "Actually, we're going to steal it!"
"Don't make it sound so bad." Thor didn't feel embarrassed at all after being exposed. He tried his best to recall the attitude Li Jie would use every time he tried to trick others.
In short, even if he was exposed, he couldn't show any fear. He had to act as if everything was supposed to be like this.
"You see, we're just going to get something that shouldn't be in S.H.E.L.D., or rather, shouldn't be kept by Earth. These things are harmful to Earth." Thor felt that he had found a trick. Perhaps he really drank a drop of the Fountain of Wisdom when he was young? Perhaps Odin had secretly given it to him while he was asleep?
Strange said coldly, "So what we're doing is still theft."
"No, we're not stealing. We're helping Earth avoid some unnecessary troubles. In fact, we're doing what heroes should do." Thor felt that he was getting better and better at this.
"So your definition of heroism includes theft?" Strange's face remained impassive.
"I said we're not stealing, not at all. We're just taking the Tesseract and sending it to where it should be," Thor tried his best to explain. Why hadn't he convinced Strange yet?
"So S.H.E.L.D. doesn't know about this? We're still going to steal. "Strange was still indifferent." Stealing goes against my professional ethics. "
Thor felt that he was a little crazy. He had already tried his best to imitate Li Jie, but why hadn't he come with him? Thor felt that he was trying hard. "I said it's not stealing."
Strange said coldly, "It's stealing."
Thor was speechless.
"Fine, do you still want the Fountain of Wisdom?!" Thor felt that Li Jie's method wasn't suitable for him, so he decided to go with the simpler and more direct method.
Strange said without hesitation, "Yes."
Thor nodded. "That's enough. Don't talk so much nonsense. Hurry up and come with me. It doesn't matter if I'm taking, stealing, or robbing. If you want the Fountain of Wisdom, cooperate with me. Do whatever I want you to do. Don't talk so much nonsense. Are you the boss or am I the boss? Listen to you or listen to me? "
Holding back the humiliation in his heart, Strange roared in his heart, If it wasn't for the fact that I can't beat you, I would have beaten you to death long ago! Thor, just you wait. Our grudge isn't over. After this is over, I must work hard to learn magic and become a Sorcerer Supreme.
Not for anything else, just so I can kill you in the future. Just you wait!
Strange gritted his teeth and said, "I'll listen to you."
Thor waved his hand. "Just listen to me. Don't talk so much nonsense. These are the coordinates of the address. You open the spatial gate, then we'll go in and get the things and come out. It's that simple."
Alright, since he had a request, he had no choice but to lower his head. For the sake of the Fountain of Wisdom, Strange could be considered to have compromised. However, his own dormancy was for the sake of soaring in the future. This bit of humiliation was something Strange could accept!
Of course, as for the problem of Thor's inability to produce the Fountain of Wisdom, Thor didn't think too much about it. If it really didn't work, he could just look for Li Jie. He would find a way to solve it. (Li Jie, who was drinking with Dum, sneezed, "Dum, can't you turn up the heater in your castle a little? I almost caught a cold! ")
Actually, as Thor had said, it wasn't difficult to go to S.H.E.L.D. to get the Tesseract's Cube because they had Captain Rogers as their insider.
Although Captain Rogers was now the director of the Heavenly Sword Bureau, his influence within S.H.E.L.D. was still huge.
He knew the specific location of the Tesseract's Cube, knew how to break through all the security facilities, knew the patrol time and blind spots of every post, and knew everything he needed to know.
He had even prepared the scapegoat when stealing the Tesseract's Cube, because if the Tesseract's Cube was stolen from S.H.E.L.D., he would definitely be held accountable.
However, Captain Rogers didn't want to see the blame fall on Hill or his colleagues, so he had asked Li Jie, "Does Nightcrawler have a good plan to teach me?"
Nightcrawler took out an item from his Space Belt and handed it to Captain Rogers. "This is a spatial grenade. It's a common weapon of the Dark Elves. It can create a miniature wormhole. It's a gift I brought back from Asgard. I'm giving it to you now."
So this gift was handed over to Thor, Thor, and now it was in Strange's hands. They entered S.H.E.L.D., stole the Tesseract's Cube, and detonated a spatial grenade.
Something that used space as a weapon had never appeared on Earth. This could divert attention, and the spatial grenade was a foreshadowing for the subsequent invasion of the Dark Elves.
This foreshadowing would ferment in the future. Captain Rogers, Tony Stark, and Dr. Banner needed to perform a three-act act to link the theft of the Tesseract's Cube with the spatial grenade, and to make a prelude for the Dark Elves' invasion.
Then there would be a small-scale invasion of the Dark Elves (a team of 100), and then a large-scale invasion (another 900). And now, thanks to Captain Rogers, Thor and Strange had arrived at the place where the Tesseract's Cube was stored.
"I feel like I'm playing a real-life version of a secret infiltration," said Thor, remembering how he had just destroyed the security system and how he had evaded the detection of nearby security personnel. "But compared to a secret infiltration, I still prefer playing 'Battle of the Three Kingdoms'. The straightforward battle of mowing the grass suits me very well."
Strange glanced at Thor and agreed in his heart. 'Yes, brainless suits you very well. Those with high IQ have all gone to the Fire Relayer. I'm afraid you won't even be able to pass the first stage, the Monastery.'
Of course, he did not say this out loud. He was afraid that the Fire Relayer was looking down on the mowing the grass player again.
Because of the influence of the Tesseract's Cube, Strange could not directly open a spatial door near the Tesseract's Cube. Otherwise, it would cause a spatial collapse, and the whole of New York might be sucked away by the Tesseract's Cube.
Now that they had arrived at their destination, Strange just wanted to finish the task as soon as possible. He wanted to let Thor escape quietly with the Tesseract's Cube, while he had to stay here and detonate a spatial grenade.
A wormhole weapon would definitely leave traces. Strange was very curious about where Thor had gotten this thing. He had a vague feeling that this matter might not be as simple as it seemed.
Perhaps Thor really did not come to steal it. Long after Thor left with the Tesseract's Cube, he sent a signal to Strange to attack through the communicator.
