Manhattan

New York City Center Hospital.

During the Great War, New York was so badly damaged that it was almost in ruins.

The rebuilt hospital is more advanced, with all modern facilities and equipped with the latest intelligent guidance systems.

And, of course, busier than before.

Black female nurse Claire. Temple avoided one patient after another and hurried down the hallway.

Her marriage to the Divine Man Luke Cage lasted less than half a year, and the irreconcilable contradictions in the lives of the two parties finally defeated the once sweet love.

After the divorce, she returned to work in the hospital and devoted herself to her work to heal her wounds.

When passing by a corner, a familiar face appeared in front of her, and Li Mo said with some sighs: "Long time no see, Claire." ”

"Wow, I thought I'd never see you again in my life." Claire Temple smiled and stepped forward to give a friend a hug.

"How so?" Li Mo smiled and shook his head.

"Come on." Claire quipped, "After Tony came back, almost everyone on Earth knew about your adventures in the universe. I don't know exactly what you're doing, but the various comics about you have always been at the top of the sales list. ”

"Wow, maybe I should go to them and get a lawsuit for royalties." Li Mo smiled, and then his face gradually became serious: "How is he?" ”

"It's not going well." Claire Temple sighed, "Come with me." ”

The two walked through the corridor to a spacious hospital room, and after Claire pushed the door in, Li Mo followed in, three pairs of surprised eyes looking at him at the same time.

"Boss, you're finally back." George and Barrett, who were sitting on both sides of the hospital bed, stood up at the same time, and walked over excitedly and gave Li Mo a hug respectively.

Lying on the hospital bed, badly burned, and only one breath was left of his original clerk, Lucas Jr., a black boy.

He was wearing an oxygen mask and ECG monitoring, relying on a ventilator to maintain his life, unable to speak in his throat, and could only look at Li Mo with tired and surprised eyes.

Looking at this guy who depended on him when he first arrived in the Marvel Universe, Li Mo felt very uncomfortable.

No nonsense, first asked Claire to bring some water, took out a strong pill 2.0 and turned it into a thick liquid and poured it into little Lucas.

The powerful pill quickly worked, and the injuries on little Lucas's body recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye, and after only a few minutes, he had already returned to his original state, but his spirit seemed a little tired.

"Wow, every time I see it, it's a miracle." Claire Temple couldn't help but exclaim.

"Tell me, what's going on?" Li Mo pulled a chair and sat down and asked.

"It all started after you left last time," little Lucas said in a weary detail.

After Lemo left Earth, Lucas worked at Daredevil Matt Murdoch's law firm.

Of course, it was a troublesome place, but little Lucas had been exercising, and had learned some self-defense skills, and he usually didn't get too involved in Matt's superhero life, and his life was relatively peaceful.

Just some time ago, Matt's original girlfriend Erica suddenly arrived, and things got out of hand.

First, Erica is possessed by the Black Sky, and then Matt Murdoch fights with the Hand to save Erica. The Hand attacked Matt's law firm and his friend Ferguette. Nelson was tragically killed, and Lucas Jr. was also affected.

Enraged, Matt Murdoch opened the killing ring, killed all the enemies, and then chased after him, and has not been seen since.

Li Mo shook his head, sometimes there is a price to pay for implementing the belief in your heart, even if you are prepared, when this price comes, you will know if you can bear it.

He looked at his first few men, and little Lucas was lying in a hospital bed. Barrett has been campaigning left and right for the rights of black people in Harlem, and he has shown a hint of old age. And George also changed from a simple young man to a decadent middle-aged man after the dissolution of S.H.I.E.L.D.

And that's not even counting his later men, the crew of the McQueen, Stephanie and Hydra Pictures, Ophelia, who is about to arrive, and, of course, the newborn Elves of Alfheim...

Even if he is a person who feeds the whole family and is not hungry. But as he experienced more and more and became more and more powerful, there were still many people who gradually attached themselves to his wings.

It's time to set up a gathering place, not for the sake of domination, but to give those close to you a place to stand in this chaotic universe.

"You guys deal with it, come with me." Li Mo smiled and said, "I don't want to put a bouquet of flowers in front of your tombstone one day. ”

George and Lucas Jr. looked at each other and smiled, "We've been waiting for this day for a long time. ”

Barrett, on the other hand, hesitated for a moment and said with a wry smile: "Boss, I decided to stay because of my father's last wish and my own ideals. ”

Li Mo sighed, looked at this guy who was not a good person before, but now he looked like a saint, and shook his head with a smile.

"It doesn't matter, everyone has their own path to take, this is your life, I won't interfere."

After telling Lucas Jr. and George to go to Tony's to wait, Li Mo walked out of the New York Central Hospital.

The streets are still full of people, terrorist bombings, alien attacks, and even after a series of disasters, people are still strong and busy running for life.

took out a cigarette, lit it and took a deep breath, Li Mo stretched his waist, "Ordinary beings, superheroes, interstellar powerhouses, dimensional demon gods... All TM is the same! ”

When a woman with a serious face next to her saw it, she immediately came up and wanted to remind Li Mo not to smoke in public.

However, as soon as she took two steps, she saw Li Mo's legs bent, and a huge wave of qi blew through, and the whole person was gone.

A driver who saw it excitedly took out his mobile phone and wanted to shoot in the sky, but the brakes led to a series of rear-end collisions, and after a few bangs, a whistle sounded, and the street was noisy...

…

Capital

At this time, it was just dawn, and when Li Mo left New York, it was already approaching dusk, and it was just early morning when he came to the capital.

It was very cold in Tiananmen Square, except for a few people and tourists with children waiting to raise the national flag.

Li Mo slowly fell from the sky, looking at the familiar building and suddenly a little dazed.

The people who watched the flag-raising ceremony were startled at first, then the children began to get excited, and the adults also whispered...

"Is that him?"

"Absolutely, although the size has changed."

"What is he doing here?"

"Mom, I'm going up there to get an autograph."

"Don't die, be careful that he pinches you to death..."

Finally, a few fashionably dressed young people boldly walked towards Li Mo.

However, the plainclothes and guards of the square, who arrived quickly, stopped them, and took out their pistols and stared at Li Mo vigilantly.

The air was a little stagnant for a while, but Li Mo didn't care, just stared at Tiananmen Square stupidly.

He has always avoided the question of returning to China, not because he is afraid of anything, but because seeing these familiar things and things always reminds him of his past life.

Although they have the same buildings, and the streets are full of yellow skin and black eyes, they are no longer his home...

A few more military-branded black off-road vehicles arrived, and after the clatter of the door, a group of people in black suits came down, all of whom looked shrewd and neat.

Zheng Xian got out of the car with a smile and came to Li Mo, who was in a daze, "What are you looking at?" ”

Li Mo came back to his senses and smiled lightly: "It's nothing, I just thought of something, let's go." ”

Zheng Xian nodded, and several people got into the black off-road vehicle and quickly drove away.

An hour later, they arrived at a huge camp hidden in the mountains on the outskirts of the capital.

This is a standard military camp, although all the facilities are available, but it is no different from what Li Mo had seen in his previous life.

Li Mo was a little disappointed, not to mention that it must be awesome, it can't be much worse than the Trident building of S.H.I.E.L.D.

"It seems that you are not very valued, not only is the place very remote, but there are few decent facilities." Li Mo patted Zheng Xian's shoulder with a smile, "Aren't you wronged as a leader?" ”

"Yes, I'm so wronged, like a grandson all day long." Zheng Xian said bitterly, sighed and said, "The plane is coming soon, let's go." ”

"What kind of plane are you on, isn't it sick when you're so close?" Li Mo snorted.

"Look at my brain." Zheng Xian slapped his forehead, "I forgot that you can fly, you go up first, the base is in the sky." ”

"Heavenly?" Li Mo looked up, he hadn't paid attention before, but now he saw a flying machine the size of a ring.

Without further nonsense, Li Mo immediately flew into the sky, and as the distance got closer and closer, this base, known as the Ring, also appeared in front of him.

True to its name, it was a ring-shaped base, about the size of five S.H.I.E.L.D. carriers, with six huge ion thrusters embedded in each of them, and hidden laser weapons everywhere, which Li Mo was quickly locked on as soon as he approached.

"That's what it looks like." Li Mo smiled, although it was nothing in the universe, it was the most majestic base he had ever seen on Earth.

Zheng Xian seemed to have already explained, and immediately two small flying machines appeared to greet Li Mo inside.

On the embedded tarmac, the aircrew came and went, and the girl Du Juan who had seen it was leading a few people to wait there, wearing an army green uniform.

"Mr. Li Mo, welcome to the Circle Base." The cuckoo stretched out his hand and said with a serious face.

Li Mo shook hands and smiled, "What are you doing with a strained face, old acquaintance, you almost became my subordinate, didn't you?" ”

A girl behind the cuckoo burst out laughing.

"It's just been a meeting, please respect yourself." The cuckoo said with a dark face.

Li Mo shrugged his shoulders with a bored expression.

Du Juan's face darkened again, and he said expressionlessly: "Li Qianhuan will take you to the lounge, so I won't bother." ”

After finishing speaking, he left angrily.

The little girl named Li Qianhuan stuck out her tongue, "You're done, Sister Du Juan is really angry, I don't think you have anything to do with her." ”

Li Mo looked at this little girl funny, "Who said I was interesting to her?" ”

"Who doesn't know in New York." The little girl looked disdainful, "You and Tony Stark are a pair of embarrassed playboys. ”

Li Mo choked for a moment and looked at this little girl with a somewhat out-of-character personality, "Are you a New Yorker?" ”

The little girl looked like an old man and said, "Hmm... used to mix in Queens, and was later picked up by Sister Du Juan. ”

Li Mo's eyes froze, and he immediately saw the energy surging in the little girl's body, "No wonder, it turns out that you are a strange person." ”

"Yes, I joined the Male Company... God, what is this name! The little girl complained: "I heard that you took it, and there are a group of people in the team who are scolding you all day long." ”

Li Mo's face darkened, "The little girl's family, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand." ”

Li Qianhuan stuck out her tongue, didn't speak again, and took Li Mo to the lounge.

The little girl led the way in front, and Li Mo looked left and right boredly and followed behind.

This base is mainly silver-white metallic, and blue three-dimensional displays can be seen everywhere, which is more sci-fi than the interior decoration of the S.H.I.E.L.D. space carrier, full of uniformed staff and heavily armed guards, a busy and serious scene.

After staying in the lounge for a long time, Zheng Xian opened the door and came in, "Mr. Li, it's a big scene, I heard that you are going to give a lecture, the conference room has already been full, and even most of the leaders will watch it through the live broadcast." ”

"Huh?!" Li Mo's mind was clouded, "Who said I was going to give a lecture?" ”

Zheng Xian followed his mind, "Didn't you promise to come to lecture when you are free?" ”

Li Mo opened his mouth: "I forgot..."

The sweat on Zheng Xian's head flowed out, and he gritted his teeth and said, "It's okay, just tell me what you have seen and heard in the universe, everyone wants to hear this." ”

Li Mo thought about it and relaxed, "Okay, let's go, let's talk about storytelling, tell you, I have also learned two paragraphs: prosperity and dissipation are like light clouds, and immortality must be built Daxun..."

Li Mo said as he walked out.

Zheng Xian chased after him with a headache, "It's not about commenting on books, don't talk nonsense." ”

After coming to the conference room, Zheng Xian stopped Li Mo and walked up to the podium first: "Today we are fortunate to invite Mr. Li Mo as a pioneer in entering the universe..."

Fierce applause rang out, Li Mo walked on the stage with a smile, after going through so many things, this was just a small scene for him.

He looked under the stands, all the people in military green uniforms, men and women were sitting upright, dozens of three-dimensional images in the back row, most of them were old men, some wearing military uniforms and some wearing suits, none of them knew each other.

After Li Mo nodded, the applause gradually subsided, and everyone looked at him quietly.

What should we talk about?

Li Mo remembered what he had seen and heard in the past few years, sighed and said, "I know that you mainly want to know about the distribution of forces in the universe, but I will first talk about another topic today: survival and evolution!" ”

"Each and every one of us is chasing, striving, longing, suffering. Just because every life is not willing to be ordinary.

The dust and haze of the modern city obscures the sky, and the red dust trivialities obscure people's hearts. Responsibility, faith, love, money, people are happy, excited, crying, struggling.

Who ever remembers when I was a child, in the dead of night, looking up at the bright Milky Way, letting my heart fly, full of humility and reverence, and accepting the baptism of starlight hundreds of millions of years ago!

From the origin of life to the extinction of one species after another, the most essential and ultimate desire may lie in the pursuit of the sublimation of the essence of life! ”

And this is also the main theme of the universe, and every civilization is seeking evolution and transcendence. In the process, countless civilizations have flourished and dissipated, and many more are constantly striving to move forward. ”

"The two most powerful interstellar empires closest to us, the Skrul and Kree civilizations, have all begun to experience civil strife and decay due to the interruption of their evolutionary paths, and the emerging civilizations are still catching up..."

After talking for an hour unconsciously, Li Mo looked at the stunned crowd in the audience, shook his head and said: "There are many terrorists on the earth, but in the universe, there are many people who destroy the planet and exterminate civilization at every turn. ”

"The New York battle was won by luck, but it was actually a joke in my opinion, so the first consideration of the earthlings at the moment is,"

"How to survive in this cruel universe..."
