"He's finally gone," Tony Stark said. "Are you familiar with this S.H.I.E.L.D. Director?"
"Not very," Alex Rivers replied with a faint smile. "We've had some interactions."
"You're always so mysterious," Tony teased.
"Perhaps," Alex's tone remained unchanged. "Did the bald head just say he wanted to form a team and recruit you?"
"Oh, is that right? I remember now, he just mentioned it."
"Tony, I have an idea," Alex said. "We can form our own superhero team—a squad made up of many superheroes."
Tony pondered for a moment, then said, "That's a good idea. Can you elaborate?"
"And this team should operate independently," Alex added. "Not controlled by any government or organization. We need freedom and flexibility to respond to people who need our help at any time."
"I agree," Tony said. "Superheroes should serve the people, not politicians. We are for justice and peace, not power."
"Then it's decided," Alex smiled. "When there's a fight, let me know."
"But we need more companions. Where do we find suitable teammates?"
"In S.H.I.E.L.D., that bald head, he will definitely form a hero team in the future—at that time, we'll secretly poach the people."
Tony laughed, "You're so wicked, but that's a good idea, I like it very much."
"If the bald head invites us to join his superhero team, we'll join openly, but privately, we'll have our own team."
"That's a great idea. At that time, we can persuade other superheroes to secretly join our team as well."
"Hmm, yes, Tony, if there's nothing else, we'll be leaving."
"Wait, Miss Rivers, if I may make an inappropriate request, do you think I'll have a chance to travel with you to another world in the future?" Tony had a strong curiosity about other worlds and really wanted to explore them.
"Travel with me? I don't think you're ready yet. Wait until your armor is more advanced, then we can talk. There will be a chance."
"Alright." Tony was very happy to get a positive answer. "By the way, the cash and the villa I gave you have both been transferred to your name. The villa address is..."
"Okay, I know the address. We're leaving now if there's nothing else." Without waiting for Tony to finish, Alex took Faora's hand and flew out the window.
With the system-enhanced artificial intelligence—Skynet—purchased with 5 billion prestige points, some information could be known with ease.
"Skynet, navigate. I want to go back to my new villa," Alex commanded Skynet in the system space.
The system space now had a size of 100,000 cubic meters. The artificial intelligence Skynet was placed in the system space. She could communicate with Skynet in her mind at any time, and the space could be connected to the outside world, allowing Skynet to connect to the network.
"At your command, my beautiful Master."
Alex was too lazy to find her own way. With Skynet, many things were very convenient.
Once in the high sky, Alex carried Faora in a princess carry, soaring through the blue sky at a speed of Mach 114.
After basking in the sun for so long, she had become a bit stronger, but she was still some distance away from speeds measured in units of light speed.
Faora felt her cheeks burning. She had never feared strong enemies, but now, in contact with Alex, she felt shy.
She tensed her body nervously, trying not to think about how beautiful her queen was. The queen's beauty was beyond reason, absolutely conforming to the highest aesthetic standards.
The queen's powerful body, full of muscle yet perfectly fluid, became even more captivating in its indescribable charm as she flew at superhuman speed.
No, this was not appropriate! She was her queen! Faora forced herself to close her eyes, but her mind was still invaded by the perfect image of her queen's appearance.
"Welcome to Kamar-Taj, Miss Rivers," a voice interrupted Faora's thoughts.
Alex, carrying Faora, suddenly flew into a golden circle of light and arrived at a strange place. She quickly lowered Faora from her arms.
Seeing the change in situation, Faora immediately assumed a fighting stance.
What? Sorcerer Ancient One.
"Faora, don't be nervous, it's not an enemy," Alex placed her hand on Faora's shoulder, signaling her to relax.
"Queen, be careful," Faora retracted her fighting stance, but her mind remained alert as she looked at the Ancient One.
"Miss Rivers, please sit." Ancient One used magic, and three cups of tea appeared on the table in front of her. Then she sat down.
Alex walked closer, sat down respectfully, and faced the Ancient One.
Faora did not sit, standing behind Alex, extremely alert and tense.
The Ancient One smiled faintly, "Miss Rivers, I want to talk to you about the future of Kamar-Taj."
"Future?"
The endlessly refilling tea from the movie was in her hand, and Alex drank it curiously.
Every time Alex finished the tea in her cup, the tea would automatically refill with a sizzling sound. This was the endlessly refilling tea made by the Ancient One.
"Yes, I cannot clearly see your future, but I have foreseen that you are reliable and trustworthy."
"So, Sorcerer Ancient One wants to retire and hand this place over to me?"
"Yes, as you said, I will teach you everything you want to learn."
"Let's not, Sorcerer Ancient One. You should know that I like freedom. Let's wait until that Dr. breaks his bones..." Alex stopped there and did not continue.
"You do know some things, after all." The Ancient One was not surprised. "Alright, even if you don't agree, I can still teach you. I just hope you will take good care of him when the time comes."
"Okay, that's no problem."
...Before long, Alex had mastered the common magic of Kamar-Taj.
For example, drawing circle portals, Mirror Dimension, etc., and she didn't even need to wear the Sling Ring, making the Ancient One marvel at Alex's talent for magic.
At Alex's request, Faora also tried to fully adapt to the Earth environment. In addition to her original super strength, super speed, and super physique, she gained heat vision, arctic breath, flight ability, X-ray vision, and super vision. She was almost like Superman, only with slightly weaker abilities in each aspect.
But Faora had trained since childhood and was one of the most excellent Kryptonian warriors, with extremely rich combat skills and experience.
In the movie "Superman: Man of Steel," Faora's fight scenes were simply too cool.
"My Lord Queen, I can fly by myself now; I don't need to trouble you anymore." Faora's heart pounded just thinking about being carried in a princess carry by Alex.
"Although you've learned to fly, your speed is too slow. It's better if I take you." Alex flew over, carried Faora in a princess carry, and flew towards the sky.
Initially, Faora had reservations due to her status, but after a long period of getting used to it, she was now gradually starting to relax.
Alex smiled wickedly inwardly. She sensed Faora's relaxation: "Let's fly a bit slower this time and enjoy the scenery more."
Using the teleportation portals learned at Kamar-Taj would be faster for long journeys, but Alex deliberately didn't use them, and Faora didn't actively remind her.
Completely relying on the Queen's embrace, feeling the strong, powerful, and perfectly sculpted arms, Faora now only felt that the Queen was both powerful and beautiful, simply astonishingly perfect.
