Chapter 621: Anomalous Astronomical Phenomena
A week to have a meeting? Tease me?
Richard thought that a meeting like the one on Earth that would open for eight or nine hours was enough to hurt the eggs, but he didn't expect that it would be a drop in the bucket compared to the Xi'ans in this regard.
People are setting beds in the conference room, so they ask if you are afraid?
In fact, Xia really has a reason for holding meetings for so long, and they do always have so many things to report on the table. Recently, they were at war with the Shinrikyo Religion, and the battle line was as long as seven or eight galaxies, and it was impossible to report on the war for a whole day.
In addition, even if the war in the special period is put aside, Xia usually has countless things to sort out one by one. After all, this is no better than the meeting of companies and governments on Earth, and the meeting here is the first empire in the universe. They occupy a huge sphere of influence that the earthlings can't imagine, and the heads of every star field, large and small, have to stand up and report the situation in their own jurisdiction, and then each of them has a lot of planetary affairs to talk about in their jurisdiction. Everyone stood up and said a few rough words, and the day passed.
The next step is to beg for money.
When there is a meeting on Earth, various departments have interests and want to ask for money, and this matter is the same when it is placed on an alien planet. Who wouldn't want to seek better benefits for their jurisdiction? Better gear, bigger ships, more appropriations for the next quarter, and plenty of pending items waiting for the Queen's nod and approval. It will take a few days to figure out all the nonsense.
Xia may also have a large territory, and the large place will naturally involve more stakeholders, and the various relationships will be extremely complicated. Xi'a is not monolithic, in fact, there is competition and even hostility between the major internal forces, and it is not uncommon for a civil war to start between two ends in three days.
Fortunately, everyone obeys the same regime, and Queen Lindra's ruling foundation is still relatively solid. No matter how much trouble there is, no one dares to question the authority of the royal family for a while.
When you think about it, it might be more efficient to have a meeting in a week.
Waiting and waiting, Richard decided to simply stay in Xia for a few more days off. Anyway, the Xi'a Empire is so big, it will never be possible to walk around slowly. He and Ganata had only stopped in the capital before, but this time they could take a walk around the more scenic planets nearby.
A week later, Queen Lendra finally came out. It could be seen that Her Majesty had been holding a meeting for more than a week in one go, and the whole person was also a little tired, but she still came to see him for the first time.
Richard thanked him solemnly, but Queen Lindra smiled and waved her hand and said no.
"That's the least we should do." "Considering what you've done, it's a good idea to do a little favor," she said. ”
The two exchanged a few polite words, and Queen Lindra also promised to convey the words to Doujian. Later, when she invited Richard to stay for dinner, something suddenly occurred to her.
"That's right. Because you have explained it before, I asked the Astronomical Bureau to pay special attention to the situation in that part of the solar system...... They did report some rare phenomena to me recently. "It may just be an astronomical phenomenon that doesn't matter much, but I think you might want to know." ”
"Oh? What the? ”
"It's the eight planets that are interconnected with the Earth." Queen Lyndra said, "Through the nine planets connected by the foundation of what you call the 'World Tree', they say that there may be an astronomical phenomenon of 'Nine Stars Alignment' in the next few days. This doesn't happen very often, but it has been documented that it has happened in the solar system before, and it could have a big impact on people living on planets. So I thought maybe I should let you know......"
Richard frowned.
The Nine Great Powers are interconnected? Nine stars in a row?
This is the story of Thor 2: The Dark World, right?
The plot of the movie is nothing, and the villain Dark Elf itself is only a small character, but it is worth noting that the aether particle was introduced in the plot of this movie. This is also the first time that the "Reality Gem" in the Infinity Stones has appeared in the MCU system.
Six Infinity Stones, two of which he had obtained before, were Strength Gems and Space Gems. The Mind Gem was previously kept in the hands of Aegis, but now that the boiled egg is out of power and Aegis is busy with reforms, the internal management is in chaos, and he has already taken this opportunity to let Gideon Malik find a way to get the scepter containing the Mind Gem back.
In total, he has three of the six Infinity Stones, and if he gets the Reality Stones, he will have four.
Whether in the comics or in the movies, the Infinity Stones are all attractable. The six gems may have their own consciousness, and they also want to find companions to put together, so the Infinity Stones in each parallel world will always end up together.
Just like Richard now, he didn't bother to collect the Infinity Stones at all, but now he somehow already had three in his hands.
A single Infinity Gem has little effect on his strength right now, but if the six of them come together to form that truly "infinite" closed ring, no one in the single universe can ignore this power.
So if this thing is destined to come together, then he still chooses to hold it in his own hands.
After hearing the news, Richard immediately changed his original plan, directly said goodbye to Queen Lindra, and rushed back to Earth immediately.
As the name suggests, the Reality Gem has the function of "modifying and controlling reality" in the Infinity Stones, which is very tall at first hearing.
However, although it sounds awesome, there are actually a lot of people who can do this trick in Marvel, for example, the little Wanda witch next to Richard actually has this potential. But in fact, most of the limitations of the ability to modify reality are very large, like Wanda's sentence in the comics "No more mutants" wiped out all the mutants in the world, which is already the pinnacle of opening + explosive seeds, and the general ability to modify reality is not so buggy.
Richard was a little impressed with the storyline, and he remembered that someone had emailed physicist Jane Foster to tell her about a specific location for a spatial anomaly.
So Richard immediately arranged for someone to search for the emails and text messages received by Ms. Jane Foster, but found nothing. Upon further investigation, he was told that Ms. Foster was following her mentor on a geological survey in Asia, which was 108,000 miles away from the original trajectory of time and space......
Richard slapped his head, and then suddenly remembered that Ms. Foster and Thor had nothing to do with it in this time and space!
Her mentor, Dr. Eric Servig, was also not mind-controlled by Loki, and he did not run naked to Stonehenge with convulsions. The group of protagonists of the Thor 2 movie is now completely unrelated......
Richard rubbed his temples.
It seemed that the shortcut was impossible, and then they had to find their own way to find the place where the spatial anomaly was.
