Chapter 95: Beginning to assemble
The specific situation is not complicated, the Cosmic Rubik's Cube that S.H.I.E.L.D. has been strictly guarding and studying for a long time has been robbed, and has also controlled Hawkeye Clint Barton with strange abilities, as well as Dr. Eric Serveg, who was invited to join S.H.I.E.L.D. and study the Cosmic Cube together.
"Who is the enemy?"
"Rocky...... From Asgard. Coulson didn't go into too much detail, he knew that Ethan knew Asgard much better than himself and S.H.I.E.L.D., he didn't need to say too much in front of Ethan, just mention the identity of the enemy.
"Uh...... Ethan!"
Tony had gotten something from Coulson and was standing at the console to check the contents, but after watching it for a while, he suddenly called out to Ethan, which made Ethan feel very strange and didn't know what he was shouting for?
"How?"
"Your profile is also on this. β
Ethan stood next to Tony, looking at the various materials displayed on the screen, he found that some of them were introducing his own information, and there were many video footage, I really don't know when S.H.I.E.L.D. filmed it.
"I'm not surprised at all. β
Coulson, who was next to him, just kept smiling and stood quietly in place.
In addition to him, the materials also include Hulk, Captain America Steve Rogers, Thor and others, in addition to the detailed introduction of the Cosmic Rubik's Cube.
Tony called Ethan over, and the real reason was the Cosmic Rubik's Cube.
"What is this?"
There are very detailed introductions and various parameters in the data, but those are all data obtained from various scientific instrument tests, and Tony just glanced at it and did not continue to pay attention. He didn't think it was that simple, and those parameters didn't tell him what it was.
If it were Tony in the original story, he probably wouldn't care about that. But since he met Ethan and seen too many things that gods and gods chatter, he has now developed a habit of asking Ethan directly when he sees something strange that he doesn't know what it is, and most of the time he can get a clear answer.
This time is no exception.
"The Cosmic Rubik's Cube, which contains almost infinite energy. In fact, this energy has spatial properties and can be transmitted by relying on this energy. β
Ethan doesn't mind revealing more and more detailed things, anyway, those things are not a secret in this universe, it's just that the Earth civilization is too low-end in this universe to have access to this kind of 'high-level intelligence', so they don't know.
"Of course, this is only on the surface, the Cosmic Cube is actually an infinite gem that represents space. β
Ethan's voice was not very loud, but there were only a few people in this room, and there was no other sound to interfere, so everyone in the room could hear Ethan's words.
The sudden revelation of such a huge secret made Coulson a little overwhelmed, and he hurriedly coughed and interrupted Ethan's explanation.
"Ahem, Your Excellency, this kind of news should probably be told in a more appropriate place. "Before, he just wanted to say hello to Ethan, simply hoping that the mage could help. In the absence of Thor, only Ethan knows more about the situation in Asgard.
What's more, Ethan is a mage, and he is also a combat power - although Idon't know what Ethan's combat power is, it shouldn't be too weak, and he is also a mage who can travel through multiple worlds.
Now he found that he should let Ethan and Fury meet immediately, because from the previous content, it can be known that the cosmic cube that Loki stole is not just a simple item with energy and can open a portal.
"Don't be nervous, there's no outsiders here. β
Coulson interrupted Ethan's words before, an important reason was that he didn't know Diana and Logan, didn't know what the identities of these two people were, and felt that this important secret should not be mentioned casually in front of outsiders.
After Ethan said this, Coulson immediately realized that these people might have been brought by Ethan from another world, just like King Arthur he had seen before.
"They're your friends?"
"Yes. β
Coulson was a little speechless, this mage not only came and went as he wanted, but also brought people from other worlds to travel in groups. Thinking of the famous King Arthur who followed Ethan before, I'm afraid these people are not ordinary people.
"Hello, I'm Diana and I'm from Paradise Island. β
"Logan. β
"Hello, I'm Phil Coulson, just call me Phil. "The good old guy Coulson is definitely the first in S.H.I.E.L.D. when it comes to making friends, and he can always make a very good first impression.
At this moment of great crisis, Coulson does not want to make enemies with people from other worlds anymore, and even hopes to gather some more partners to fight the threat from Loki.
Seeing Coulson chatting with Diana and the others over there, Tony took the opportunity to ask about the Cosmic Rubik's Cube, and after no one bothered this time, Ethan was very happy to tell everything he knew.
For example, there are six Infinity Stones in the universe, which symbolize power, reality, space, soul, time, and mind, each of which is extremely powerful, and even just getting one can easily destroy a planet. While this information amazes Tony, it also makes Coulson realize that this time they may be in more trouble than he expected.
"There are only six Infinity Stones in the universe, and one of them appears on the ...... Earth" Coulson didn't know that there were now three Infinity Stones on the Earth, but Ethan didn't remind him of this, he thought that there was only a Cosmic Cube on Earth, and at this moment it represented the Infinity Stones of space.
He even began to wonder if it was because of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s research that other powerhouses in the universe knew the specific location of the Cosmic Rubik's Cube, thus provoking a powerful enemy to the earth.
"I hope you will go with me to Fury immediately. β
Coulson is very decisive, and he knows that this information must be known to Fury, not only to counter the threat of Loki, but also to the future of the planet.
"Yes. β
Ethan will tell the information of the Cosmic Rubik's Cube to let S.H.I.E.L.D. and Fury understand that this thing is not something they can have. As long as they hold this thing for a day, then the earth is always in danger.
There are many strong people who want to get the Infinity Stones, and Loki is not the first and will not be the last, at least Thanos, that is, Thanos, is determined to get the Infinity Stones.
Therefore, in order to avoid the earth being targeted by countless cosmic powerhouses and causing endless trouble, S.H.I.E.L.D. still obediently handed over the Cosmic Rubik's Cube and put it in the hands of Ethan, a mage who has traveled many worlds. That way they would avoid a lot of trouble, and Ethan would have a stable and powerful infinite amount of energy, and a near-infinite amount of spatial energy to study.
"Everybody's happy!"
The abacus played very loudly, and he didn't know if he could succeed in the end, but of course he wouldn't let go of this opportunity, and after agreeing to Coulson, Ethan directly said goodbye to Tony and Pepper, and left Stark Tower with Diana.
Logan wasn't going to go with Ethan because he had to take care of Laura. Anyway, it sounded like he was going to meet some official, and he was not interested in this kind of thing that he knew was very troublesome when he heard it.
Coming out of Stark Tower, Ethan looked at the deserted street and turned his head to look at Coulson next to him.
"Shall we go directly to Fury?"
"I'm going to pick someone up first. β
According to the original plan, after informing Tony Stark and Ethan, Coulson would pick up Captain America and fly to the current temporary headquarters of S.H.I.E.L.D., which is the Helicarrier.
After being found, Steve Rogers has been placed in the New York branch of S.H.I.E.L.D., and the residence he arranged for him after waking up was also in New York, because he was originally a New Yorker, and S.H.I.E.L.D. made this arrangement with Rogers' personal circumstances in mind.
It's just that New York is a completely unfamiliar city to Rogers, who has been sleeping for 70 years, and it will take him a long time to adapt to his new life. It is also for this reason that S.H.I.E.L.D. has not assigned any work to Steve.
If it weren't for Loki's snatching of the Cosmic Rubik's Cube, S.H.I.E.L.D. would have let Steve continue to adapt for a while, and only after he was initially familiar with this era would he be assigned a new job.
The sudden event caused the veteran, who was close to 100 years old, to end his rest earlyβnot only was the long vacation that had accumulated for 70 years gone, but even he couldn't rest tonight.
"Hello, Steve. β
When Steve Rogers opened the door to his apartment, he was greeted by Ethan, whom he had met during the day and had a pleasant conversation.
As for the other one, he knew it was S.H.I.E.L.D. Phil Coulson.
"I remember you saying you weren't from S.H.I.E.L.D. β
"It's true that I'm not from S.H.I.E.L.D., but I occasionally give them a consultant or something......" Ethan suddenly turned his head to look at Coulson beside him, "Is there any pay this time? I don't want to do a day job." β
Coulson still kept smiling: "The issue of remuneration can be discussed with the director in person." Then he turned to Steve Rogers: "I'm sorry to disturb your rest, but the matter is very urgent, and I hope you can understand." β
"I'm ready to go. β
Steve Rogers is well-dressed and not as a resting person should be. Because Nick Fury had already approached him before, mentioned that he needed his help, and also left Steve with a lot of relevant information.
Before Ethan and Coulson arrived, Steve was looking through the materials and waiting for someone to pick him up.
After picking up his things and boarding the S.H.I.E.L.D. plane together, Steve kept looking at Ethan, and he was curious about Ethan's identity.
