Chapter 244: After the War
To be honest, this was something that Richard didn't expect at all. Brother Hammer made a big hole in his garden with a thunderbolt, although he felt unhappy, but he could only forget it, after all, he couldn't go to Old Man Odin to ask for compensation
But what I didn't expect was that the old man was actually quite active, and he, the main owner, didn't say anything, and Thor appeared at his door with the Cosmic Rubik's Cube.
But if you think about it carefully, Odin in the movie doesn't seem to pay much attention to the Infinity Stones or something. The Rubik's Cube has been lost on the earth for more than a thousand years, and the old man Odin only opened one eye and closed one eye, pretending not to see it, and he didn't even send anyone to find it seriously. Later, after the Cosmic Cube was brought back, it was only thrown by the old man in the warehouse to eat ashes, and he had no intention of taking it out and using it at all.
Richard thought that with Odin's old man's skills, it should be impossible not to know how to use this thing, and besides, Thanos's Infinity Gauntlet was created by Nidavel, the dwarven country, and it shouldn't be difficult for Odin to get a real Infinity Gauntlet, but he just got a fake and used it as an ornament in his warehouse.
There is also the Aether Particle, the carrier of the Reality Gem, which Thor desperately snatched back from the Dark Elves, only to turn around and give it to the Elder Collector of the Universe, on the grounds that it was too dangerous to put the two gems together. It can be seen that Asgard is not really concerned about the Infinity Stones, as long as it is safe, it doesn't matter who owns it.
Richard didn't know how to use the Cosmic Cube for the time being, so he didn't want to take it out of the light of the friendly relationship between Earth and Asgard. But since the artifacts were delivered to the door by himself, there was naturally no reason not to accept them, so he accepted them without much hypocrisy, and thanked Thor who came to deliver the equipment.
I won't use this thing for the time being, and I'm afraid of being remembered when I put it in my own home. And this thing will constantly emit gamma rays, it's like it comes with GPS positioning, so you can't stuff it in a safe
But this is also a minor issue. Richard directly took out his gun and summoned Stone Wings, threw the Cosmic Cube into Stone Wings, and then he waved his hand, and Stone Wings immediately turned into an afterimage and disappeared into the sky.
Heh, now you Thanos will go and find the space gem to try if this can be found for you, then the labor and management will change their surname on the spot!
This is equivalent to occupying the pit and not. Although he can't use the space gems, as long as the Rubik's Cube is still hidden in the Wings of Stone, Thanos will not want to collect all six gems in his life.
And even more than that. The six Infinity Stones are powerful because they form a positive cycle, each of which has a synergistic effect with a gem in its corresponding position, and the Power Gem is the total energy source of the Infinity Gauntlet.
This means that the placement of the Infinity Stones must follow a strict sequence, just like Thanos did in the movies. Power, space, reality, soul, time, mind, the wrong order, none of them worked.
And now that Richard has taken the space gem, it is equivalent to digging a big hole in this positive cycle, and the four positions from the space gem back have also been cut off by him. In other words, in the future, even if Comrade Thanos finally collects the five gems with great difficulty, he can only use the power gems.
The lofty ideals and ambitions of Thanos, the chief member of the Cosmic Family Planning Commission, have not yet begun to be implemented, and at this time, visual inspection has been snuffed out in the cradle......
Luckily, perhaps because his manor was relatively far from the city center, no one hit his manor head this time because of the black crowd of Zetarians in New York......
…… Oh no, I guess it's bad luck. If the Zetarians flew over and blew up his house with a few shots, then he would be able to ask for more compensation for the boiled eggs, and build a bigger and better one. It's a pity, it's a pity......
What makes people angry and funny is that something so big happened, and little Godzilla didn't even notice it. This little lazy thing slept in his nest the whole time, and all the immortals flying around his head were unaware.
It was not until the end of the battle, when the gods went back to their homes, that Richard came home to take a look, and the little one crawled out of the nest lazily with a yawn, and ran up and rubbed twice on him while screaming, indicating that I was hungry again and wanted to eat......
Watching little Godzilla happily holding a piece of ribs and munching, Richard couldn't help but feel melancholy, if this goes on, does this thing feel like it has to be raised, and he eats, sleeps, sleeps, and eats all day long, and it really looks more and more like the canines that everyone loves. Will you simply grow Godzilla's dead fat house in the future?
He felt dangerous.
This will not work, and this latent trend must be stifled as soon as possible. Richard looked down at the cute foodie, and his eyes gradually became firm.
Gotta train!
It's a head Godzilla, at least you have to know how to bite people, otherwise you won't really become a mascot in the future
As if sensing something from the master's sight, the little Godzilla beast who was eating meat was shocked, and his back was cold for no reason.
I don't know why, but I always feel bad......
Jessica and Gwen also came back soon after the war, more or less with dots on them. From their disgraced appearances, it is not difficult to guess that they also went to New York to help fight the war before.
On the first day, everyone was very tired when they came home, so they only greeted each other and said a few words before going to rest.
New York was blown up to most of the city, and the normal functioning of the city was undoubtedly paralyzed. Now that the city is in ruins, no one can go to work and school, and there is a salted fish-like Zetari transport ship lying on the school building where Gwen studied, and the students will not be able to go back to school for a while.
So they became idle for the past two days. After dinner the next day, the three of them went to the city of New York to wander around and see how New York was doing.
In fact, there is nothing to say, the whole of New York is now summed up in one word, chaos. Everywhere you go to the city, there is a mess, there are still busy searching for survivors, and the number of casualties is rising.
The official stats haven't been released yet, but you can guess that the stats must be terrifying. Not only the citizens of New York, but also the American military suffered heavy casualties in the battle, and almost every collapsed building was dug up with corpses buried underneath.
In addition, law and order have become a major problem. Now that New York is in a state close to wasteland, the law enforcement system is in complete disarray. A large number of lawbreakers took to the streets in a vain attempt to take advantage of this opportunity to make a windfall.
The Avengers went their separate ways after the battle, so the burden of maintaining law and order was handed over to street heroes like Daredevil and Luke Cage, and Gwen often went out to help maintain order during her daily routine patrols, but their efforts were only a drop in the bucket for such a large scale, and the effect was limited.
No one expected that it was none other than the criminal boss Jin Ji who finally stood up to maintain order during this period of lawlessness.
