Chapter 121: Loki Captured
However, it did not hit Nick Fury, but rather the instrument where the Tesseract was originally placed. Hawkeye then shot an arrow at Loki, but Loki dodged it, then instantly appeared in front of Hawkeye, and touched Hawkeye's chest with the scepter. Blue energy was injected into Hawkeye's body, and then he put down his weapon and looked respectfully at Loki.
Loki used the same method to control Erik Selvig and several other Agents, not intending to bother with Nick Fury. He was about to leave with Hawkeye and the others, along with the Tesseract, when...
"You are starting a war!" Nick Fury struggled to his feet and said to Loki. Although the energy wave just now did not hit him, the aftershock had shaken him badly, and he had only just managed to recover.
"War? No, no, no, for you it is indeed war, but for me it is dominion! And the difference between rebels and me is like shoes and ants. Do shoes need the ants' permission to step on them?" Loki said this to Nick Fury and then left.
After they left, Nick Fury used his earpiece to tell MaryHill that Barton and the others had defected, asking them to stop him and retrieve the Tesseract. At the same time, he himself quickly ran to the top of the Base, because the previously researched energy was unstable, and this place was about to explode!
Boom— — — — — —!
Nick Fury boarded the helicopter at the last moment, and then the helicopter ascended and chased after Loki's vehicle. Nick Fury held a small pistol and shot at Loki and the others below, but not a single shot hit. Loki also held his scepter and fired another blue energy wave at the helicopter. Although it did not hit, Nick Fury did not intend to pursue them further.
After he returned to S.H.I.E.L.D. Headquarters, he immediately began to gather the preliminary members of the Avengers. Natasha also returned from Karl's manor. As for whether she would tell Nick Fury some information about the place, that was unknown. Even if she did, it would only increase his apprehension.
At the same time, Nick Fury also brought Steve Rogersback, and sent Coulson to find Tony Stark to explain the situation. Natasha went to find Banner, who was hiding in the favelas of Brazil. He also took out a pager and looked at it. If Earth truly fell, he could only call Captain Marvelback... "Mr. Tony Stark, I think you should look at this first. This is a war, a threat from aliens, so please consider it." Coulson met Tony through Pepper. Tony did not want to see anyone from S.H.I.E.L.D. at all and immediately told him to leave. Although Coulson did not know the reason, he left the information behind and departed.
Even Pepper didn't know what was happening. She had never seen Tony like this. After seeing Coulson off, she saw him looking at the information Coulson had left. She chose not to disturb Tony and then prepared to return to the company.
Tony looked at the information above, feeling a bit unsure whether to believe it, so he called Karl:
"What's up, Tony? Calling me now, what's going on?" Karl's voice came from Tony's phone, with a hint of confusion.
"It's like this, Karl. Coulson from S.H.I.E.L.D. just came to see me and showed me some information. I don't know if they've contacted you, but this information says that aliens are going to invade Earth. What do you think?" Tony took a deep breath and said to Karl on the other end of the phone.
"OK, OK, I understand. You don't have to be so nervous. This is an army brought by Thor's brother, called the Chitauri! It can indeed be called an alien invasion, but it's not an invasion from Asgard. Thor fought Loki after returning to Asgard, and then Loki fell into a spatial rift, so Thor should be able to come down soon."
"If you want to go, you can. I can handle this matter, but the people behind this army are the real enemies. Alright, you can think about it yourself. Anyway, you have your vibranium battle suit now, so you won't die." Karl first explained the situation to Tony, and then let him decide whether to go or not.
Karl knew without thinking that S.H.I.E.L.D. was recruiting people. Whether Tony went or not, the outcome would be the same. That instrument would still be set up on Stark Tower, and Karl's goal was the Space Stone and the Mind Stone. As for the rest, it had nothing to do with him.
"OK, then I'll still go and take a look. Otherwise, I won't be at ease. If I can't hold on, I'll call you!" Tony pondered for a while and then decided to go and see, because he didn't trust S.H.I.E.L.D., not to mention he now wanted to try out his vibranium battle suit.
On the other side, Loki's appearance was immediately detected by S.H.I.E.L.D. Natasha took Steve Rogers and flew a quinjet towards that location. Tony also detected Loki's position, and after assembling his vibranium battle suit, he flew towards that location!
It is worth mentioning that Tony's current armor was equipped with five new element arc reactorss! So his speed easily broke Mach 1, and it was still accelerating. It can be said that Tony's current armor had received an epic enhancement!
On the other side, after everyone in the square knelt down, Loki began his dominion speech. But an old man openly stood up. Loki extended his scepter, blue energy flashed, and he just shot at the old man.
Bang— — — — — —!
However, the attack was blocked by a person holding a shield, and the shield was even thrown directly at Loki, knocking him to the ground. On the other side, Natasha, flying a quinjet, had weapons hanging below aimed at Loki. At this moment, music began to play!
Boom— — — — — —!
Tony made a dazzling entrance in his armor, punched Loki, and then said:
"You put your hands up, you Bambi! No, reindeer!"
Natasha gave Tony a helpless look. Then Tony glanced at Steve Rogers, then shook his head. This guy was the man his father highly praised? It was a pity he didn't perform on stage. After that, Tony also followed them into the quinjet.
And Steve Rogers also looked curiously at his good friend's son. He seemed a bit different from what he had imagined. The gap between the two eras was too deep, so he didn't say much. At this moment, lightning and thunder began outside, and Loki looked terrified...
Chapter 122: Thor's Arrival
"What, you're so old and still afraid of thunder?" Steve Rogers teased Loki, whose hands were bound.
Meanwhile, Tony had another thought; recalling Karl's phone call about Thor's arrival when the thunder started, he wondered if this was a sign of Thor's coming.
"No, no, no, I'm just afraid of the guy who makes the thunder," Loki said, shaking his head at Steve Rogers, because he knew his actions couldn't escape Heimdall's eyes.
Then Odin would surely know, and with the Bifrost Bridge destroyed, he could only send Thor down through dark energy.
Boom— — — — — —!
"Something landed on the quinjet, be careful!" Natasha, who was piloting the quinjet, called out to Steve Rogersand Tony.
Tony already knew who it was, but he still stood up, while Steve Rogers looked behind him with his shield.
Bang— — — — — —!
A blonde giant holding Mjolnir suddenly burst into the back of the quinjet!
He grabbed Loki and prepared to leave, wanting only to take his brother back to Asgard for judgment.
Everyone had thought he was dead, and Mother had grieved for so long; he never expected him to be alive and still causing trouble.
"Thor!!" Tony shouted when he saw Thor about to leave with Loki.
If Loki left, what would happen to the Tesseract? Besides, he still wanted to talk to Thor, who, as the Prince of Asgard, surely knew a lot about things in the Universe.
"Hmm? Tony? What are you doing here? Where's the Prophet? Is he not here?" Thor heard a slightly familiar voice as he was about to leave, turned around, and saw it was Tony.
He then looked into the quinjet and asked Tony about Karl's whereabouts.
"Karl is at home with his wife, he didn't come.
Come in first, you're one of us.
Loki hid the Tesseract somewhere, we need to find it first," Tony said to Thor, his tone quite polite.
He wasn't the ignorant Tony from the previous timeline now.
Thor, after all, was his and Karl's friend, as well as the Prince of Asgard and Odin's son.
These identities were enough for Tony to treat him courteously.
"This... alright, Loki, you won't escape this time! You must come back to Asgard with me!" Thor sat down after hearing Tony's words.
After all, he had shared drinks with Tony, who was his friend, and he still needed to find the Tesseract before returning.
"Who is this person? Loki must face Earth's laws, not return to some Asgard!" Steve Rogers asked Tony at an inopportune moment, and then directly told Thor that Loki must be judged by law.
"He's Thor, the God of Thunder from Norse mythology.
Hey! Enough! Hey! Put down your weapon!" Tony was about to introduce him to Steve Rogers, but after Steve Rogers spoke those words, Tony thought, 'This isn't good,' because how could Thor possibly leave Loki here?
Then Thor pointed Mjolnir at Steve Rogers.
Tony looked at both sides and chose to help Thor.
If Loki were truly left on Earth to be judged by law, things would escalate.
Odin would surely be displeased, and then it would be over.
It would be better to subdue Captain first and then explain.
Thinking about how Karl couldn't even defeat Odin's armor, let alone Odin himself, he didn't know if Karl could handle it, so he could only choose to help Thor.
"Hey! Steve, put down your weapon!"
"What are you saying, Midgardian!"
"Tony, what are you doing? Are you betraying Earth!"
"What am I doing? I'm saving Earth.
Do you know who they are? You're starting an interstellar war right now!! And against the Gods of Norse mythology!!"
"Hey, hey, hey!! Enough, I think we should sit down and talk, what do you think?" Natasha shouted at all of them.
Afterward, Steve Rogers and Thor sat down.
After Tony's explanation, Steve Rogers, though a bit unwilling, said nothing more.
He couldn't start another interstellar war because of Loki, especially against Asgard, which was much more powerful than Earth!
Thor ignored Steve Rogers.
He only wanted to find the Tesseract, then see Jane, and then take Loki back to Asgard for judgment.
As for Steve Rogers, he was just a mortal to him.
The only people on Earth he truly respected, besides the Sorcerer Supreme, were Karl, Tony, Red Tank, Jane, Erik, and Daisy!
The Sorcerer Supreme was respected because her power was like his father's.
Karl's strength was also beyond doubt; he admitted he couldn't beat him.
Tony and Red Tank were his friends who had helped him when he was down.
Jane was his girlfriend, which was different, and Erik and Daisy were also his friends.
"OK, let's go to the S.H.I.E.L.D. helicarrier first.
There's an expert waiting there, and we should be able to find the Tesseract very soon," Natasha said to everyone, then piloted the quinjet towards the S.H.I.E.L.D.helicarrier.
The helicarrier was currently at sea and had not yet taken off, but it would be very soon.
After Tony and the others arrived at the helicarrier, they saw Banner.
Tony was surprised, realizing they had brought Hulk too.
After greeting Dr. Banner, he walked inside, put down his armor, and took out a bracelet to wear on his hand, which was the vibranium battle suit!
It was the kind made for Karl.
When Tony put on the bracelet, Karl also received a connection message.
Seeing it was Tony, Karl agreed.
The reason Tony connected to Karl's bracelet was to prevent S.H.I.E.L.D. from making any malicious moves.
If his body encountered any problems, the bracelet would immediately activate the armor and send a distress signal to Karl.
Tony now completely distrusted S.H.I.E.L.D.
Ever since he learned that Nick Fury had tried to use his father's things to make him indebted and even join that 'super boy' team, his goodwill towards S.H.I.E.L.D. had plummeted to rock bottom!
Now he only wanted to thwart Loki's conspiracy; otherwise, he wouldn't enter this nest of Agents.
Afterward, Loki was put into the transparent cage, and everyone watched Nick Fury and Loki chat.
Nick Fury even bluntly stated that the cage wasn't originally prepared for Loki.
Seeing this, everyone looked at Banner, who just shrugged.
He had expected this before he came and was already mentally prepared; anyway, he couldn't die, and he had nothing to lose.
Chapter 123: Conflict and Argument
Tony and Dr. Banner then went to the lab to calibrate the spectrometer to detect Gamma Rays. Since the Tesseractcontinuously emits Gamma Rays, as long as they found a location where the Gamma Ray frequency matched S.H.I.E.L.D.'s recorded data, the Tesseract would be there! As Tony left, he plugged something into the helicarrier's control center computer, because he didn't believe Nick Fury's claims about developing unlimited energy.
Zzzzzzzzz!
"Hey, ow!"
"I thought you'd just transform, into that big green guy." Tony teased Dr. Banner heartlessly after stimulating him with an electric pen. Dr. Banner just smiled, and before he could say anything...
"Tony, I think you should be more serious. If it comes out, people will get hurt." Steve Rogers walked in with his shield, just in time to see Tony stimulating Dr. Bannerwith an electric pen. He then warned Tony that if the Hulkreally came out, it would be bad, and the line about people getting hurt was actually directed at Tony.
"Hey, see? Nothing happened. I think I'll get results very soon, don't you think, Dr. Banner?" Tony said to Steve Rogers carelessly, then turned to Dr. Banner, and began operating the computer.
"Know what?" Steve Rogers asked Tony and Dr. Bannerin confusion. Although he was skeptical of Nick Fury's claims, he hadn't taken any concrete action, unlike Tony, who immediately began infiltrating the helicarrier's firewall, intending to see what Nick Fury was really up to.
"We're looking into what Nick Fury is really doing. I don't believe in this 'unlimited energy' thing. He's developing unlimited energy and he doesn't come to me? I'm an expert in energy, and he didn't invite Dr. Banner, who's an expert in Gamma Rays. That makes it hard not to be suspicious. Plus, he's the king of Agents, he can't tell us everything, so I'm going to find the answers myself." Tonyexplained to Steve Rogers, almost explicitly stating that he didn't trust Nick Fury.
"You're hacking into S.H.I.E.L.D.'s network database? Hey! How can you do that?" Steve Rogers' doubts deepened after hearing Tony's words, but he still questioned Tony. Tony just shrugged and didn't answer him. Steve Rogersthen left.
Soon after, the helicarrier's control center showed it had been infiltrated, and even the firewall had been breached. Nick Fury immediately thought of Tony, and then headed to the lab where Tony and Dr. Banner were.
"Tony Stark, you can't do this. Stop what you're doing!" Nick Fury said to Tony after entering their lab, and seeing the computer screen he was operating further confirmed his suspicion.
"OK, OK, then tell me what Phase Two is? Don't tell me it's some unlimited energy; that's just lying to a three-year-old Kid!" Tony stopped operating the computer and then questioned Nick Fury. Dr. Banner also looked at Nick Fury with Tony, to see what he would say.
"This is Phase Two. Sorry, computers are too slow for me." Steve Rogers walked in with a black weapon, placed it on the table, and said to Tony and Dr. Banner. He then joined Tony and Dr. Banner in looking at Nick Fury. At this moment, Natasha and Thor happened to walk in.
"OK, OK, I'll tell you why. Because of him! A while ago, an alien descended upon Earth, and a battle with a super-powered individual leveled a small town! It made us realize that humans on Earth are not alone, so we need more powerful weapons to protect Earth!" Nick Fury saw everyone looking at him with questioning expressions, then pointed directly at Thor, pushing all the responsibility onto Thor and the others.
"What? It's precisely because you're studying the Tesseract that its emitted frequency is equivalent to telling the Universe that you're ready for an advanced war!" Thor heard Nick Fury pointing at him, and wanting to blame him, he immediately retorted to Nick Fury, returning the blame to him... After that, everyone started arguing, and the Mind Stone on the table kept flashing. The reason for their argument was actually the influence of the Mind Stone. On the other side, Karl's bracelet also received Tony's physical condition, which was a bit confusing, but after thinking of the Mind Stone, he didn't bother, because he had already guessed that Tony and the others were arguing.
"What are you without your armor? You've never been someone who would sacrifice for a comrade!" Steve Rogers mocked Tony, as if Tony was nothing without his armor in his eyes.
"Super genius, philanthropist, billionaire, what do you think? Should I be like you, a product from a can? That's because my comrades are strong enough, at least stronger than you." Tony also spoke mercilessly to Steve Rogers, even refuting his words and then mocking him.
Everyone then looked at Tony. Natasha merely shrugged, knowing that what Tony said was true; his comrades weren't this group of people, but those at Karl's house, specifically Karl. Although they hadn't competed, the video of him fighting the Destroyer earlier showed his immense power.
"So why did you bring me here? Do you think I wanted to come? I live like a monster every day, and I'm in so much pain, do you know? I even broke down and tried to kill myself, but I couldn't die; the Hulk would just spit the bullet back out." Dr. Banner said to everyone emotionally, on the verge of a breakdown, even holding the Mind Stone.
"Hey! Dr. Banner, put down what's in your hand first!" Tony and the others cautiously watched Dr. Banner. Tonyspoke to Dr. Banner, who looked at the Mind Stone in his hand, then placed it back on the table.
Just as everyone breathed a sigh of relief, a quinjet flew in from outside the helicarrier. Hawkeye Barton first shot one of the helicarrier's engines with his bow and arrow, and when the arrowhead hit the engine, it exploded.
Boom!
Due to the explosion of one engine, the helicarrier tilted slightly, and the lab where everyone was gathered also slanted. Hawkeye then shot another arrow at the people in the lab, and that arrow flew into the lab.
Boom!
Chapter 124: Hawkeye's Attack
Because Hawkeye Barton did not know their exact location, the explosive arrow did not hit anyone directly; instead, the shockwave from the explosion knocked them flying. Tony's bracelet immediately enveloped him, so he was almost completely unharmed. He then started to walk towards his armor. Although his current Vibraniumnano armor was good, it lacked offensive power, so he decided to put on his vibranium armor.
Nick Fury, on the other hand, headed towards the command center. Dr. Banner, after being hit by the explosion, began to get angry. The Hulk was almost ready to emerge. Natasha was right beside him, but her foot was pinned by something. Unable to break free, she could only try to comfort Dr. Banner, but her hand found the ice card in her pocket. If Banner transformed into the Hulk and attacked her, she would not hesitate to use this trump card.
Roar — — — — — —!
The Hulk still emerged. Just as he was about to attack Natasha, Thor luckily arrived and punched the Hulk away. He then moved the object pinning Natasha and began to fight the Hulk hand-to-hand. However, he was getting severely beaten by the Hulk. Fortunately, Asgardianphysiology was extraordinary, otherwise Thor would have been bedridden for months.
Boom — — — — — —!
Thor, enraged, began to summon his mjolnir. With the hammer in hand, he struck the Hulk again, sending him flying. He continued to attack the Hulk, even throwing the hammer, which hit the Hulk and then landed nearby.
Roar — — — — — —!
The Hulk roared at the hammer nearby and tried to pick up Mjolnir, but after two attempts, he realized he couldn't lift it. He gave up and attacked Thor with his bare hands, punching Thor, sending him crashing into the helicarrier's wall. Before Thor could get up, the Hulk's attack had already arrived.
Boom — — — — — —!
On the other side, Hawkeye also boarded the helicarrier. Several Agents controlled by Loki began to enter the helicarrier with weapons, heading towards the damaged engine. Nick Fury told Tony that if the engine wasn't repaired quickly, the helicarrier would crash. To prevent the helicarrier from falling, Tony and Steve headed towards the engine to repair one of them and maintain the helicarrier's flight capability.
Bang — — — — — —!
Hawkeye arrived at the command center alone and shot an arrow into a port. After it hit, all the computers in the command center went down, and even the engines shut off. Nick Fury immediately drew his gun and shot at Hawkeye, but missed. He reported Hawkeye's location over the comms, and Natasha said she would handle it!
Meanwhile, Coulson discovered that Loki had escaped, even retrieving his scepter. He aimed an energy weapon at Loki, but was deceived by Loki's illusion. Loki pierced Coulson's chest with the tip of the scepter, directly impaling him.
On the other side, Thor enraged the Hulk, making him charge at him. Thor dodged with a flash, and the Hulk fell off the helicarrier, plummeting towards the ground. Thorthen saw Loki running out and immediately rushed over, only to be tricked again into the canister originally prepared for the Hulk but now holding Loki. Loki mocked Thor for still being so easily fooled, then pressed a button nearby, and the entire canister, with Thor inside, dropped down.
On the other side of the helicarrier, Tony and Steve had managed to repair one engine. Natasha ambushed Hawkeye and subdued him. Loki, led by the Agents he controlled, boarded the quinjet and flew towards the Tesseract's location.
Meanwhile, Nick Fury gathered everyone, pulled out Captain America's blood-stained collectible cards, and then told everyone about Coulson's Death. Everyone fell silent, except Tony, who looked at Nick Fury with a faint expression, as if saying, 'Keep up the act.' Coulson had bragged about those cards to him, but they weren't on Coulson's person; they were in his locker.
Although Coulson died, the cause of this outcome was Nick Fury himself. And now, he was even using cards from someone's locker to win over the crowd or motivate them, making Tony dislike the one-eyed black man even more. Soon after, the spectrometer detected the Tesseract's location: Stark Tower in New York.
Tony immediately put on his armor and flew to New York, completely ignoring the others. On the way, he called Pepper and breathed a sigh of relief when he heard she was at Karl's manor, then accelerated towards his Stark Tower.
Karl, through the Mirror Dimension, saw Erik Selvig setting up the Tesseract to open a long-range portal, and also saw Loki descending from the quinjet with his scepter. Karl took no action, simply watching quietly.
However, he did inform his father-in-law and had Quicksilver bring Helen Stacy to the manor. He also told them what was about to happen. Even George Stacy fell silent upon hearing about the interstellar invasion, but still prepared to go out and protect the civilians. Karl said nothing about it; if he wanted to go, then he could go.
Tony then rushed back to Stark Tower and fired a repulsor blast at the device, but it had no effect. Jarvisanalyzed it and found it was unbreakable. Tony saw Lokiin his building, and, wearing his vibranium battle suit, confronted him, launching an attack, but it was just an illusion, and Loki vanished.
Whoosh — — — — — —!
The device on top of Stark Tower shot a blue energy beam into the sky, and a huge blue portal appeared. Chitauri soldiers began to enter Earth from the other end of the portal. Seeing this, Tony activated another suit of his armor. A red and gold device flew out of Stark Towerand began to assemble onto Tony's existing armor, somewhat resembling the Hulkbuster, but entirely made of Vibranium.
Tony then transformed into a small giant and began to attack the Chitauri soldiers in the sky. Steve Rogers from the S.H.I.E.L.D. helicarrier, along with the recovered Hawkeye Barton and Black Widow Natasha, flew a quinjet towards New York. Banner also woke up in a factory, and with the help of an old man, got a set of clothes and a rickety motorcycle, heading towards New York...
Chapter 125: Chitauri Invasion
Because this place was not very far from New York, even Banner could see the blue light beam and blue portal shooting out from Stark Tower.
Afterward, Dr. Banner rode his old motorcycle towards New York.
Thor broke out of the container just as it was about to hit the ground, then used Mjolnir to summon lightning, manifesting his armor, and then spun his hammer, flying towards New York!
Boom——————!
Bang——————!
Tony alone struggled to attack the alien creatures coming out of the portal, but there were still some stragglers flying around, directly attacking the civilians and shops on the ground.
No matter what they saw, as long as it was a living creature, they would attack.
It wasn't until Steve Rogers and others arrived a while later that Natasha, flying a quinjet, attacked these alien creatures, but it was still a drop in the bucket; even the quinjet was hit and was about to crash.
Boom——————!
As it crashed, Steve and the others jumped directly out of the quinjet and began to attack the Chitauri soldiers on the ground.
Hawkeye even took one down with each arrow, almost hitting every time!
Karl watched this scene quietly from the Mirror Dimension.
He was actually quite curious if someone would once again cross Worlds to arrive at this point in time.
Many things had already been changed by Karl, and the future should also be affected by the present.
Perhaps no one would travel back in time?
Afterward, Steve and the others were a little surprised to see Tony, wearing a massive armor, frantically killing various Chitauri soldiers.
They hadn't expected Tony's armor to be so advanced, not even taking damage until now.
Tony was now at full power.
The original Iron Man Suit had four new element arc reactorss, plus the six on this massive armor, so Tony's armor now had a total of 10 new element arc reactorss providing him energy.
Coupled with the Vibranium material, Tony could be said to be going on a rampage!
Boom——————!
A giant Chitauri beast emerged from the portal.
This time, Tony didn't let Hulk come out as in the original timeline, but instead charged forward himself.
The armor began to deform, and Vibranium blades appeared around it.
Tony went full throttle, charging into the mouth of the Chitauri beast, then came out from its back.
Immediately after, the entire Chitauri beast collapsed to the ground, and Steve and the others looked at Tony's direction in disbelief.
Roar——————!
After Banner, riding his motorcycle, arrived next to Steve, he began to walk forward at Steve's suggestion, his skin slowly turning green, and soon he transformed into Hulk.
He leaped forward, charging ahead, and began to furiously smash every Chitauri soldier he saw!
Afterward, Steve and the others also began to clear out the Chitauri soldiers everywhere, while the large Chitauribeasts were left for Tony and Hulk to handle!
The World Security Council also saw this scene via satellite.
Just then, a figure carrying thunderstorms and lightning appeared on the battlefield!
Bang——————!
It was Thor who had arrived.
Mjolnir summoned lightning, killing all the Chitaurisoldiers in the air, and he even blocked the entrance of the portal alone, continuously releasing lightning, greatly reducing the burden on Tony and the others below.
Steve and the others also began to rescue the trapped civilians everywhere.
Hawkeye saw Loki and immediately shot an arrow at him, but Loki caught it with one hand, revealing a smug smile.
But how could Hawkeye, who had served him for a few hours, not know that his arrows would explode?
Boom——————!
Then Loki was gloriously blown away along with the flying vehicle he was in, but he landed on Stark Tower.
Thor saw this and came down from above, landing next to Loki, telling him to close the portal.
He was then tricked by Loki again, this time even being stabbed in the abdomen by the Third Prince's dagger.
Karl watched this familiar scene from the Mirror Dimension.
Either Thor was truly stupid, or he had true love for Loki.
How many times had Thor been tricked and played, yet he still hadn't changed?
Perhaps it really was true love; even the most foolish person should change.
At the same time, he was also observing whether there were any Tonys from other timelines appearing on the battlefield.
In fact, in the timeline, when Tony and the others traveled back, they thought no one had discovered them.
In reality, at least two people had discovered them: the first was the Sorcerer Supreme, Ancient One, who slapped Banner's soul out of Hulk's body; the other was Jarvis, the AI in Tony's Stark Tower, who even spoke a sentence to Tony later.
Jarvis, as the artificial intelligence of Stark Tower, saw his boss fighting outside, and then another boss appeared here, even looking exactly like his boss, with the same build, only appearing older than the boss fighting outside.
Jarvis easily deduced that the other party was a boss from the future, but it did not make a sound, did not even choose to ask, and did not tell Tony, who was fighting.
Later, when future Tony left Stark Tower, he said a sentence, but Tony didn't hear it.
As for those in the shadows, it was unclear.
The Marvel Universe was a mixed bag, with countless powerful figures, and even characters like the Watcher, so Karl didn't know.
While Tony and the others were bravely fighting the enemy, Nick Fury, on the other side, received information from the World Security Council that they were going to launch a nuclear missile.
After Nick Fury refused, they directly bypassed his authority and ordered the pilot.
Nick Fury immediately ran to the helicarrier deck, even carrying a Rocket launcher.
After arriving on the deck, he fired a Rocket at the fighter jet that was just about to take off.
The Rocket directly hit the tail of the fighter jet, causing it to be damaged and unable to take off.
Boom——————!
"Motherfucker!!" Just as Nick Fury hit one fighter jet, another fighter jet still took off, carrying a nuclear missile towards New York.
As for whether the World Security Council wanted to destroy the Chitauri soldiers or Tony, Hulk, Thor, and the others, it was unknown.
But Nick Fury knew the seriousness of the situation.
Leaving aside Tony and the others, he knew that person lived in New York.
If a nuclear missile detonated in New York, he might really have to call Carol back, not to mention the Prince of Asgard.
If he were killed by a nuclear missile, Earth would have to endure much more than just the Chitauri invasion.
Even Karl would go crazy; Tony was his good friend!
"Tony! Tony! A fighter jet carrying a nuclear missile is heading your way.
Find a solution quickly.
If not, call him quickly!
Otherwise, everyone will be finished!!" Nick Furyimmediately connected to Tony's communication and said to him...
Chapter 126: Nuclear Bomb Incoming
"What the f*ck? A nuclear bomb? Do you have any idea how many people are in New York! Just give us a little more time and we can send them back!"
Tony swore after hearing Nick Fury's words. If the nuclear bomb really exploded, the entire New York would become ruins, and even they would die. The "he" Nick Fury mentioned was naturally Karl; only Karl could stop the nuclear bomb from exploding or divert it now.
"What the, a nuclear bomb! The World Security Council is a bunch of lunatics!"
Even Natasha cursed under her breath after hearing about the incoming nuclear bomb, but there was nothing she could do. If the nuclear bomb wasn't stopped, she would also die in the high temperatures generated by its explosion!
"Karl, Karl! There's a nuclear bomb heading for New York. Didn't you say you could handle it? What do we do now!"
Tony called Karl and anxiously asked him if he had any solutions.
"Alright, I know. I said I could handle it, and I will. Don't worry, I'll take care of it!" Karl said calmly to Tony on the other end of the phone, not putting the nuclear bomb, humanity's most terrifying weapon, in his eyes at all. After speaking, he hung up.
A fighter jet flew in from outside New York City, launched a nuclear bomb towards New York City, specifically Stark Tower, and then turned around and left. Many people in America witnessed this scene; a nuclear bomb had actually been launched!
Even Steve Rogers couldn't remain calm and was about to ask if anyone had a solution.
Suddenly, a man in a white shirt appeared in the air, floating and calmly looking in the direction from which the nuclear bomb was coming. Since his appearance, the surrounding temperature began to drop. This person was naturally Karl. Karl appeared on the battlefield shortly after receiving Tony's call, calculated the nuclear bomb's flight path, raised his hand, and drew a circle in the air. A black and blue-bordered portal appeared in front of the nuclear bomb.
The nuclear bomb directly rushed into it. The other end of the portal appeared in front of the portal opened by the Tesseract. The nuclear bomb first entered the portal from in front of Karl, then exited the portal Karl opened in front of the Tesseract, directly entering the Universe, and even charged towards the Chitauri warship.
Boom——————!
After the nuclear bomb hit the warship, a mushroom cloud erupted. Afterward, all Chitauri soldiers on Earthlost power and fell to the ground. Karl slowly descended, looking at Loki, who was being smashed by Hulk inside Stark Tower. He looked around and found loki's scepter. Telekinesis enveloped the scepter, and it flew into Karl's hand. Tony also flew to Karl's side, and together they flew to the top of Stark Tower. Karl inserted the scepter into the energy shield, directly closing the portal.
"Shit, it's finally closed. Phew—if that nuclear bomb had exploded, we would have been done for." Tony detached from his large armor and said to Karl, opening his face shield and letting out a big sigh of relief, then sitting directly on the rooftop.
"Even if it exploded, I would save you. You wouldn't die." Karl put the Tesseract and loki's scepter into his system space, then said calmly to Tony, stating directly that even if the nuclear bomb exploded, he wouldn't die.
"Well, thank you very much. But since you knew this scepter could close the portal, why... Wait a minute! You already knew a nuclear bomb was coming!"
Tony asked Karl with some confusion, then suddenly realized that Karl seemed to have known about the incoming nuclear bomb all along.
Tony didn't angrily question Karl why, but rather asked him with great confusion, because although Karl knew many things, he was generally quite steady. Furthermore, Karl was his friend and family, so he would choose to trust Karl!
"Yes, I knew already. That's why I told you I could handle it. Even if I knew, I wouldn't change it. If it changed, then future events would also change. Even if I had stopped Loki beforehand, wouldn't there be another interstellar invasion? This also serves as a warning to them, and more importantly, lets them know what they shouldn't touch." Karl explained to Tony unhurriedly, also telling Tony the reason why he didn't act at first.
"OK, OK, I have no objections. I guess you wouldn't care about others' opinions either. Let's go." Tony stood up after hearing Karl's words and re-entered his large armor, replying to Karl helplessly. "They" naturally referred to the Tesseract. Afterward, the two flew downwards.
At this moment, Loki had already been captured by everyone, and almost everyone who participated in the battle was on the first floor of Stark Tower. After Karl and Tony flew down, Thor immediately came over. He hadn't expected Karl to come to the rescue in the end.
"Hey, Prophet! Can I give Loki to you first? I want to go see Jane. I'm afraid they can't keep Loki contained, so I want to ask for your help. Oh, Tony, where's the Tesseract?" Thor once again used that embarrassing title for Karl, then stated his purpose, and then looked at both of them, who weren't holding the Tesseract, and asked Tony with confusion.
"The Tesseract was, of course, taken by your Prophet. What do you need that thing for?" Before Karl could answer Thor, Tony on the other side spoke to Thor, also wondering why Thor wanted the Tesseract.
"Alright, I understand. I can watch Loki for you. The Tesseract is indeed with me, but I need to use it for a while before I can give it to you. You probably want to use the Tesseract to return to Asgard and repair the Bifrost Bridge, right?" As soon as Karl heard Thor ask where the Tesseract was, he knew what he wanted to do, and then agreed. Karl only needed the Infinity Stones to unseal the as-you-wish gold-banded cudgel; in fact, it wasn't of much use to him.
"Hey, sir, I just heard the Tesseract is with you. I'm an Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., here to reclaim the Tesseract." After Karl finished speaking, a bald man with several Agents came before everyone and spoke to Karl. Tony watched the bald man with an expression of watching a show; he knew Karl wasn't very fond of S.H.I.E.L.D..
Boom——————!
"Oh? An Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.? Not a HYDRA Agent?" Karl glanced at the bald man, then his telekinesis surged, directly blasting both the bald man and the Agents behind him into the wall of Stark Industries, looking at him with a half-smile.
"What, you want to fight me? Captain America? Hawkeye? Or you? Black Widow?" Karl looked at Steve Rogers in an attacking stance and said to him playfully, also glancing at Hawkeye and Black Widow. Tony, hearing Karl's words, lowered his face shield and aimed his weapons at Steve and the others. Thor also picked up Thor's Hammer and aimed it at them...
Chapter 127: The Golden Cudgel is Unsealed
From Earth's perspective, Tony might resist alien invasions alongside them, but if they were to move against Karl, Tony would not hesitate to strike at them. What did it matter if it was Steve Rogers, the man his father admired? As for Thor, Karl had helped him the most when he lost his divine power, even guiding him. Plus, he was a friend. If anyone were to move against Karl, Thor would definitely not shirk his responsibility.
"Nonono! We have no intention of attacking you, calm down!!!" Natasha immediately said as Tony and the others prepared to act. The Hawkeye next to her was trembling, remembering how he had encountered the opponent twice—once he was badly beaten, and once he lost his weapon. He simply couldn't win.
"Alright, I'm taking Loki. You can go find Jane. Tony, give Thor a communicator so he doesn't get lost. Let's go." Karl glanced at Natasha, then spoke to Thor. With a surge of telekinesis, he casually opened a portal and walked in with Loki, not forgetting to remind Tony to give Thor a communicator.
On the other side, Steve Rogers watched Karl's departing back, lost in thought. Afterwards, Natasha escorted the bald man back to S.H.I.E.L.D. and informed Nick Furyabout the phone call. Then, everyone left Stark Tower.
A few days later, Tony and the others became household superhero names. Only the mysterious person who appeared and sent the nuclear bomb into the portal remained unknown. With Karl's intentional control of online public opinion by Quicksilver, discussions about him gradually decreased. Afterwards, New York Citybegan rebuilding its buildings, roads, and so on. Intense public protests also erupted near the Black Palace, and large-scale public protests and demonstrations were frequently seen in New York!
News began to report on this matter. Some citizens believed that all of this was brought about by those superheroes, and they should be held responsible for the deceased, the damaged buildings, and people's losses. Of course, no one paid attention to them; this was a minority opinion. Most people were grateful to Tony for saving New York and saving Earth!
Just as they were at the peak of their fame, Karl entered the Shadow World and took out the as-you-wish gold-banded cudgel from the system space. He then took out the Tesseract and loki's scepter together. Afterwards, he shattered loki's scepter, revealing a yellow gem. Karl used telekinesis to suspend them beside the as-you-wish gold-banded cudgel and used his own energy to draw on the energies of the Tesseract and the Mind Stone, injecting the energies of the two gems into the as-you-wish gold-banded cudgel.
As the energy was injected, the as-you-wish gold-banded cudgel began to turn golden from one end, slowly spreading until three full hours passed. The as-you-wish gold-banded cudgel erupted with a powerful energy in the Shadow World. The golden light directly illuminated the entire Shadow World. Karl then gripped the as-you-wish gold-banded cudgel in his hand, and golden energy began to flow across the surface of his body!
Karl could feel that his strength had increased significantly. With the as-you-wish gold-banded cudgelin hand, he could at least reach the Sub-Heavenly Father Level! If he added the gold cloth, his strength could be amplified to the Heavenly Father Level! Therefore, Karl no longer needed to fear Captain Marvel!
Because Karl's Freezing Power had reached absolute zero before, his strength was already close to the Sub-Heavenly Father Level. With the amplification of the golden cudgel, it was natural for him to enter the Sub-Heavenly Father Level, and with the gold cloth, he could directly reach the Heavenly Father Level!
After feeling the power within him for a while, Karl put the golden cudgel back into his system space. The Tesseract and the Mind Stone were also put back. Afterwards, Karl left the Shadow World and returned to his manor. Loki was still with Quicksilver, locked by Vibranium chains, almost completely bound. There was also an electric shock device on his neck; once he moved from his original position, it would release an electric current strong enough to stun Loki, who had the physique of a Frost Giant.
This was mainly because Karl casually told Quicksilverthat this guy was prone to escaping and to keep a close eye on him. Then Quicksilver, desperate, almost tied Lokiinto a zongzi with Vibranium! This led to the scene where Loki looked at the tall mechanical creature before him with a look of utter despair... Meanwhile, at S.H.I.E.L.D.Headquarters.
Nick Fury's heart sank when he heard that Karl had taken both the Tesseract and loki's scepter. The bald man had died when Natasha escorted him back to S.H.I.E.L.D., and the trail went cold, leaving him unsure if there were still HYDRA members within S.H.I.E.L.D.! HYDRA was also stunned; they hadn't expected Karl to know the identities of their members and to expose them directly. Pierce was furious, vowing to make Karl pay the price!
That evening, Nick Fury held Captain Marvel's pager, contemplating whether to call her back to take down Karl. The opponent was already so powerful before, and now with the Tesseract and loki's scepter, wouldn't no one be able to stop him? Nick Fury returned to his secret base below and found it filled with Tony's arc reactor, though they were palladium element arc reactor, and iron robotswere everywhere!
These were all manufactured by Nick Fury after he saw the arc reactor blueprints in the relics Howard Stark left for Tony. These were actually meant to deal with Karl, but after the incident with Destroyer, he realized how strong the opponent was. After careful consideration, he still pressed Captain Marvel's pager!!!
Such an unstable factor was the greatest threat to Earth. Nick Fury habitually controlled everything, so the emergence of an existence he couldn't control, or even restrain or threaten, was naturally seen as a thorn in his side!
He also contacted many super-powered individuals, even including Banner in his list, believing that if the price was high enough, Hulk could be persuaded to deal with Karl. However, the Mutant Academy refused to get involved in their affairs, flatly rejecting Nick Fury!
Carol Danvers, whose body was filled with energy flowing in space, discovered that the pager she had given to Nick Fury was calling her. She immediately flew towards Earth. Nick Fury was a steady person; he wouldn't usually call her unless it was a major issue!
Many people noticed Carol Danvers flying towards Earth, but Karl didn't know that taking the Tesseract and loki's scepter would make Nick Fury call Captain Marvel back. Even if he knew, he wouldn't care!
Chapter 128: Mei Attacked
Afterward, Nick Fury, to avoid alerting the enemy, had all S.H.I.E.L.D. Agents stand by.
Karl didn't notice this and was at home with Mei, Raven, and Helen Zhao.
However, HYDRA was planning something.
One day, as Mei was leaving in a rolls-royce...
As the car exited the wealthy area of Manhattan, hidden HYDRA personnel prepared to attack it, because HYDRAintended to use Karl's family to threaten him into surrendering the Tesseract and loki's scepter!
Boom!
The rolls-royce was hit and sent flying by a modified car.
Because every member had Vibranium bracelets, Karlhadn't had the rolls-royce modified by Quicksilver.
Thus, the rolls-royce was easily sent flying by the modified black car.
The moment the rolls-royce was hit, the bracelets of Mei and Yelena inside automatically activated, and vibranium battle suit instantly enveloped them.
Even though the rolls-royce was sent flying, they only felt a slight impact and sustained no injuries.
Swish!
As their car overturned on the ground, nearly 200 shadow ninjas of all three forms emerged from the shadows of Mei and Yelena.
They immediately rescued Mei and Yelena from the rolls-royce.
The HYDRA members were surprised by this but immediately began attacking them.
Clap clap clap clap!
The shadow ninjas also began to stealthily attack the HYDRA members from the darkness.
Soon, the HYDRA members witnessed their companions being decapitated.
Mei, wearing her vibranium battle suit, watched the scene somewhat bewildered, while Yelena stood in front of Mei, handgun in hand.
"Quickly, take Mei back, now!"
Yelena didn't know if these shadow ninjas could understand her, but she spoke to them.
Afterward, a shadow ninja appeared behind Mei and vanished with her from the spot.
At the same time, one also appeared behind Yelena, but Yelena refused.
She wasn't the type to be hit and not hit back.
Pulling a rifle from the rolls-royce, she began shooting at the HYDRA members, not expecting HYDRA to even be carrying Rocket launchers!
Boom!
The rolls-royce was directly blown up by a Rocket, and even Yelena, who was behind it, was impacted.
However, Yelena was wearing vibranium battle suit, so she was fine.
On the other side, the Shadow Bats and Shadow Claw ninjas had already killed all the HYDRA members.
This commotion also attracted attention from the surroundings, and even police sirens could be heard.
Yelena checked and indeed found no survivors, then signaled the shadow ninjas to take her back.
Two shadow ninjas appeared behind Yelena, taking her into the Shadow World and then sneaking towards the mansion.
Soon they arrived at the mansion.
In the living room on the second floor of the mansion, Karlsat on the sofa with a grim expression, while Ravencomforted Mei.
It was her first time being attacked, and she was quite frightened.
At this moment, Peter, Wanda, Pirot, Red Tank, Raven, Helen Zhao, Gwen, Mei, and Karl were all present, with only Yelena still missing.
Even Quicksilver had created a mini projection of himself on the table.
No one spoke.
Karl's mind was constantly wondering who it could be.
Then, the shadow appeared on the ground, and a shadow ninja returned with a person wearing vibranium battle suit.
"Boss, everyone is dead.
We can't tell which force they belong to, but their equipment is very sophisticated, and they are professionally trained, unlike Terrorists or kidnappers.
It's our fault for not doing a good job with security, allowing Mei to be frightened.
I'm very sorry." Yelena appeared in the living room, knelt before Karl, and said.
"Get up.
Be careful these next few days, try not to go out.
They probably wanted to kidnap Mei this time, to threaten me or exchange her for something." Karl glanced at Yelena's appearance indifferently, then slowly said.
Ding-ding-ding!
"Hey Karl, nothing happened on your end, right?
Jarvis told me your rolls-royce at the mansion was attacked, and your shadow ninjas appeared!"
After Karl answered the phone, Tony's voice came through, asking about the incident right away.
Only about thirty minutes had passed, and Tony had already received the news.
"It's nothing, don't worry, the enemies are all dead.
I just don't know who it was, so there's no need to worry for now.
You be careful on your end too.
I suspect they're coming for me.
Although I don't know who it is, there's an organization that makes it hard not to be suspicious." Karl said to Tonyunhurriedly, but Tony knew that the calmer Karl was, the more terrifying he actually was.
"S.H.I.E.L.D.?
I'll investigate.
If it really is them, I'll make them pay!"
"I'm hanging up, I'm going to check on Pepper!" After hearing Karl's words, an organization flashed through Tony's mind: S.H.I.E.L.D.!
He then said to Karl with some anger and hung up.
Afterward, several other people called.
George and Helen also called.
George, because such a major Terrorists attack had occurred, immediately arrived at the scene.
He found the luxury car's license plate at the wreckage site.
Seeing this familiar license plate, George broke out in a cold sweat and immediately called Karl, asking if anyone was hurt or if anything had happened, as this license plate belonged to Karl's mansion!
Even Pepper called.
Upon hearing that Mei had been attacked, she immediately dropped her documents and had Happy take her to Karl's mansion.
Her relationship with Mei had always been good.
When Mei took over the management of Karl's assets, Pepper was the one who taught her.
The two often went shopping and had afternoon tea together.
Now, hearing that Mei was attacked, she rushed there, full of worry.
Ding-ding-ding!
"Hello?"
"Mr. Karl, hello, I am Madam Gao of The Hand.
Regarding the attack on your loved one's vehicle today, The Hand has found a few clues.
The other party is very likely the HYDRA organization, which has been out of sight for a while, but we cannot be certain, so we can only offer this as a reference, apologies."
"Okay, thank you."
"You're welcome, it's nothing."
After Karl hung up, he hadn't expected it to be The Handcalling, and even finding some clues in such a short time.
In that case, the probability of it being HYDRA indeed seemed higher than S.H.I.E.L.D.
Nick Fury of S.H.I.E.L.D. wouldn't so suddenly move against those close to him without absolute certainty...
Chapter 129: Captain Marvel Returns
Karl then casually threw out a dragon bone weighing about fifty catties, and a shadow ninja appeared, embracing the dragon bone before disappearing.
Why was The Hand trying to curry favor with him? Wasn't it for the dragon bones?
They wanted the dragon bones but didn't want to clash with Karl, so they could only help Karl by sending him information without his knowledge.
Judging from the previous two occasions, Karl was a man of principles, with give and take, so The Hand was very willing to help Karl with some minor issues.
As for Karl's previous statement that he didn't have many dragon bones, almost no one in The Hand took it seriously.
They weren't fools; did he think they didn't know how many were beneath Manhattan?
It was just that Karl probably wasn't short on money anymore, and they couldn't just forcibly take them, so they could only try to gain Karl's favor to increase their chances of getting dragon bones.
A golden light flashed in the universe, and Odin of Asgard looked up in that direction, as did Ancient One of Kamar-Taj.
They all sensed a Heavenly Father Level powerhouse about to descend upon Earth.
Ancient One and Odin both knew who she was, so they did not stop her, but instead allowed her to enter Earth!
She was Captain Marvel, Carol Danvers, who had rushed back to Earth from the universe after receiving Nick Fury's signal.
She immediately located Nick Fury's position through the signal and directly landed inside Nick Fury's secret base!
Boom——————!
"Damn it... Hey, Carol, you're back, that's great!" Nick Furywas about to curse, but seeing that the person who arrived was Carol Danvers, whom he had summoned, he immediately swallowed his words.
"Nick, tell me, what did you call me back for? It must not be an ordinary matter for you to use the communicator." Carol looked at Nick Fury, then sat on a nearby stool and said to him.
As for what Nick Fury had almost said, how could she not know?
"OK, OK, it's like this: I'll show you. Now, the Tesseractand something suspected to be similar to the Tesseractare both in his hands, so he is very dangerous.
And he does everything according to his own will; I can't do anything about it.
Earth cannot have such a reckless person existing, otherwise, it will be a disaster for Earth!" Nick Fury pulled up a video for Carol Danvers to watch, then explained to her.
"OK, so I'll go take care of him now?" Carol Danvers, after a brief look at Karl's information and video, said directly to Nick Fury.
She was incredibly busy; where would she find the time to seriously look at such things?
She didn't care what the other party was like; since Nick had called her, then solving the problem was all that mattered.
After this, she still had to find a new home for the Kree.
"Wait a moment, we'll apprehend him tomorrow.
I still have some arrangements." Nick Fury was overjoyed when he heard Carol Danvers' words, but he still decided to proceed according to his plan.
Carol Danvers glanced at Nick then nodded...
On the other side, Karl didn't know that Captain Marvelhad returned to Earth, let alone that she had decided to make a move against him tomorrow.
At this moment, he was with Tony, searching for the HYDRA faction that attacked May.
He was trying to find out which branch of HYDRA was so bold.
Every person around him almost had hundreds of shadow ninjas hidden in their shadows.
Once an attack occurred, the shadow ninjas would directly take them into the Shadow World!
Even George and Helen were no exception.
Nick Fury thought his plan was flawless, but it was noticed by T'Challa of Wakanda.
Upon discovering that they were targeting Karl, he himself was conflicted about whether to get involved.
He could never forget the incident where Karl had attacked Wakanda and killed so many guards and soldiers.
Afterward, he decided to first ask his father for his decision.
T'Challa had now inherited the throne of Wakanda; he was now the King of Wakanda!
However, he was afraid of retaliation from Karl if they failed, so he couldn't make up his mind.
He then walked towards the residence of his father and mother.
"Father, S.H.I.E.L.D. outside is planning to make a move against Karl.
Should we get involved?
They've also gathered some Mutant and street heroes, but they should have some very powerful trump card, so I'm thinking..." T'Challa said to the former King, his father T'Chaka, and also told him all the information he knew.
"Alas, my child, you are now the King of Wakanda.
You should ask your own heart, and then think of the people of Wakanda.
If we can withstand the other party's retaliation, then go ahead.
If not, you must consider the countless citizens." T'Chakasighed after listening to T'Challa's words.
Since T'Challa had come, he naturally wanted to avenge the guards and soldiers who had died previously.
How could he not want to?
But the other party's strength was simply not something they could contend with.
"I understand, Father, thank you for your guidance!" T'Challa left after listening to T'Chaka.
T'Chaka watched his son's retreating back and sighed again.
How could he not understand his own child?
Although he spoke that way, his heart was still conflicted.
At this moment, T'Chaka could only hope that T'Challawould consider the citizens and the future of Wakanda, and not lead Wakanda to destruction.
After T'Challa returned to his King's Hall, he sat on the throne, still conflicted.
He couldn't come up with a solution until deep into the night.
He then contacted Nick Fury through his own means, stating that he wanted to deal with Karl, and asked Nick Fury if he was truly 100% confident.
Nick glanced at Carol nearby and confidently replied to T'Challa.
No matter who the other party was, as long as they could deal with Karl, Nick welcomed them.
Afterward, T'Challa still hung up the communication, and with S.H.I.E.L.D.'s technology, it was impossible to find him.
T'Challa came to the graves of the guards and soldiers who were killed by Karl and his group last time, and a surge of anger welled up in his heart.
He then made up his mind: he would deal with Karl!
But to avoid implicating Wakanda, he prepared to go alone!
Afterward, T'Challa flew Wakanda's high-tech fighter jet out of Wakanda, heading to New York!
Because Nick had already told him the time of tomorrow's attack, Nick didn't care who the other party was, even if they were on Karl's side, he didn't care.
Now that Carol was back, everything else was meaningless; Karl couldn't escape!
Chapter 130: gold cloth Appears
The next day arrived quickly. Pierce, on the other side, also learned that Nick Fury was going to make a move on Karl today, so he dispatched several Winter Soldiers, including Captain America's best friend. The goal was to see if they could intercept Karl after Nick captured him!
Karl also felt that today seemed a bit different, but he did not think much of it. By noon, Karl had just finished eating with Mei, Raven, Gwen, Helen Zhao, and others, when a huge sound echoed from outside.
Boom— — — — — —!
Yelena urgently told Karl that someone had invaded. Then she disappeared from her spot, appearing at the manor's entrance the next moment. After seeing the woman next to Nick Fury, Mei, Gwen, Raven, and others were directly taken into the Shadow World. Even Georgeand Helen, who were not there, were brought into the Shadow World by shadow ninjas.
"Interesting, Captain Marvel: Carol Danvers. I didn't expect Nick Fury to call you back, huh? Captain America? Black Widow, Hawkeye, Banner, Daredevil? Interesting, and quite a few Mutants. Oh, Black Panther of Wakanda. It seems you're confident you can defeat me, Nick Fury?" Karl said indifferently to Nick Fury while hovering in the air. Red Tank also ran to Karl's position below, and Quicksilver walked out of the warehouse, standing next to Karl.
"People like you, who are out of control, should be destroyed and regulated! And hand over the Tesseractand Loki's scepter you're holding!!" Nick Fury said confidently to Karl. Now that Carol was back, his confidence was even more overflowing!
Boom— — — — — —!
"Woah, woah, woah, I didn't expect a party without inviting me. No problem, I'll join myself!" A roaring sound echoed in the sky as Tony, wearing vibranium armor, appeared next to Karl. Behind him was an even larger vibranium armor, and a supply pod filled with arc reactors and various devices hovered nearby.
Whoosh— — — — — —!
When Nick Fury saw Tony arrive, thousands of iron robots flew out from behind him, each with an arc reactorin its chest. Tony was a bit stunned; how did they also have his arc reactors? It was incredible. He immediately looked at Karl, wanting to hear what Karl had to say.
"Hmph, it seems Director Nick Fury is even more shameless than I thought. To covet the relics Howard Stark left for Tony, it's truly despicable." Karl scoffed at Nick Fury. Everyone looked at Nick Fury after hearing this, even Steve Rogers. But Nick Fury's thick skin wouldn't let him feel embarrassed by such a small matter.
"Karl, if you surrender now and hand over the Tesseractand Loki's scepter, I might still let you live!" Nick Furyshouted coldly at Karl. He never intended for Karl to live. If someone like him were to escape after a problem, the World would face danger, so Karl had to be killed here!
"Interesting, is there anyone else? Otherwise, the party is about to start, but everyone needs to be careful, because you might just die if you're not careful!!" Karl said to everyone with a faint smile on his face, causing a shiver to run down their spines.
Clap— — — — — —!
The next moment, Thor suddenly appeared next to Karl, and a person, who was Loki, appeared next to Red Tankbelow! Thor had released Loki. After receiving Tony's message, he immediately rushed over. Seeing the opponent's formation, he felt a bit weak on their side. He found Quicksilver and asked him to release Loki, then discussed with Loki to have him fight alongside them against the opposition. Loki agreed at the cost of returning to Asgard and taking him to see his mother every week.
At this moment, Thor looked solemnly at the woman next to Nick Fury, because he had only felt such immense power from his father. This meant the opponent was at least a Heavenly Father Level expert. He secretly thought that if they couldn't handle it, he would just take Karlback to Asgard. After all, Karl was his friend and had helped him so much; even if it meant giving up his throne, he would make his father save him.
"So, everyone should be here now, right? Very good, the party begins!!" Karl said to everyone after a blue light flashed in his eyes. As soon as he finished speaking, the stars in the sky formed the shape of sagittarius, and then a golden box fell directly.
Bang— — — — — —!
Before everyone's eyes, the golden box slowly opened. A centaur-like figure held a golden bow and arrow, then unleashed a massive golden energy. Afterward, it began to disassemble and rush towards Karl's location, each component starting to equip itself onto Karl! In a short while, Karl transformed into a person wearing yellow armor with a white cape draped behind him. Karl also slowly reached out and took the sagittarius saint clothweapon! But Karl did not choose to use this bow and arrow.
Instead, he took out the golden cudgel from the system space. The golden light on Karl's body grew even stronger. At this moment, Karl's strength, boosted by the saint cloth and the golden cudgel, had reached Heavenly Father Level. Odin and Ancient One's gazes also turned towards them. Odin hadn't expected the young man who couldn't even defeat his armor before to now possess Heavenly Father Level strength. Thinking about his good relationship with Thor, he couldn't help but be happy. It would naturally be a good thing for Thor to have a Heavenly Father Level friend in the future.
As for whether the other party would die here? No way, he was still watching. If he were to act, wouldn't that mean this Heavenly Father Level young man would owe Asgard a favor? Then, if Thor encountered trouble in the future, the other party would at least help! This is reality: if you have value, there are people who want to invest in you and protect you!
Boom— — — — — —!
Karl, holding the as-you-wish gold-banded cudgel, looked at Nick Fury and the others. The aura from his body pressed down on them, causing most people to directly kneel on the ground. It wasn't until Carolactivated her state that the pressure and aura disappeared! At the same time, she looked at Karlopposite her with a solemn expression. She hadn't expected the other party to suddenly possess Heavenly Father Level strength, and now she couldn't help but feel a bit regretful for offending a Heavenly Father Levelexpert just because of Nick Fury's few words.
"Woah! Karl actually has Heavenly Father Level strength, hahahahahahaha, now you guys are doomed! How dare you attack my friend, you are all my enemies!!" Thorexcitedly said to the people on Nick Fury's side.
Roar— — — — — —!
Even Red Tank's body began to surge with red energy. His expression showed that he was both excited and angry!
