Chapter 429: Change Needed
The fierce war is over, and the earth seems to be the aftermath of the catastrophe. When the Great Snake launched its divine might, the Nine Realms were all affected, and Thor during the fierce battle with the Great Snake squeezed out the divine power in his body like never before, and also reached the Heavenly Father level in a short period of time. The two Heavenly Fathers fought in this fragile dimension, and the impact could be imagined.
"Reality has been affected." In the Kama Maj Temple, Doctor Strange stares at the magical projection of the earth with a solemn expression, "The demon Surtr, the god of death, Hela, the great serpent, and the god of thunder who fights the great serpent. Several forces converged on the same point on Earth, striking the barrier separating the nine worlds. The dimension has been greatly affected, and reality has become extremely unstable. From now on we must be more careful to protect reality, it will recover, but it will take time. ”
This means that until it repairs itself, you should try to avoid changing the law casually...... That's what it means. Michael looked at the suspended planet in front of him, and the golden light that covered the virtual projection was indeed unprecedentedly dim, as if it was about to disappear at any moment.
In other words, those large spells that affect the basic laws of space must be used with caution, and if it is not for the fact that there is really no choice or when facing an enemy who is really too strong to fight by conventional means, in principle, this fragile reality can no longer be tossed casually.
And the infinite primordial stone, which holds the power to change the law at will, is naturally the most taboo existence.
Doctor Strange looked sideways at Michael, "Odin gave you the Spatial Primordial Stone too?" ”
"yes." Michael made a simple seal, stretched out his right hand, and with a mistaken finger, a faint blue glow appeared between his fingers. The rough stone slowly floated between his fingers, like a brilliant crystal suspended in mid-air, slowly spinning.
The Spatial Primordial Stone had just been extracted by him from inside the Cosmic Rubik's Cube. Similar to the ability of other Primogems to modify the laws of space, the Primordial Stones can arbitrarily distort and manipulate the laws of space in the universe in which they exist. Spatial transfer, spatial teleportation, spatial folding, and even reordering of space, space is like a plaything in front of the owner of the primordial stone, which can be manipulated at will by his will.
With the previous experience of studying real rough stones as a reference, the study of space rough stones will undoubtedly be much simpler. Michael is confident that he will be able to create a prototype armor that will be able to harness the power of the Space Primolite in two months.
However, it may still be difficult to exert the power of the two primordial stones of reality and space at the same time in battle, and the most he can do now is to rely on a single set of specially designed armor to exert the power of one of the primordial stones, but he can switch between the two sets of armor during the battle, realize the ability transformation, and switch the primordial stones with different functions to cope with various applicable situations.
But of course, before that, the original stone was still his last hole card, and he still tried not to use it when he didn't need to use it.
Michael stared at the suspended earth projection in front of him, thought for a while, and said, "Have you ever thought that this world ...... Seems a little too fragile? ”
"How?"
"Power, time, space, soul, reality, and mind, the six primordial stones born at the beginning of the universe are in charge of the six attributes. They are supposed to be part of what constitutes this reality, including their ability to change the laws. Michael said, turning to Strange, "But since when?" The world can't withstand their power? ”
"The power of the rough stone is too strong in the first place." "The laws of nature need to be defended by us. ”
Yes, from the very beginning of their contact with the mystical side, this is what the Ancient One Mage taught them. The laws of nature cannot be violated, any means of playing with the rules is taboo, and breaking any one of the six basic laws will cause immeasurable consequences.
This may be true, but it seems a bit exaggerated to say otherwise. There are many people who have touched these artifacts and exerted their powers, but they have not seen the foundation of any world collapse because they can't withstand the power of the original stone.
So maybe the world they live in is something else that makes reality so fragile?
The more he delved into magic, the more the thought seemed to linger in Michael's mind. Not only when using the original stone, but even when he cast some high-level magic that touched the law level, he faintly felt that the laws of this world were crumbling.
"All in all, the laws of nature are what we swear we must defend." Strange glanced down at the Eye of Agamotto on his chest and said, "Rough stones can only be a last resort. Unless you are forced to do so, you can't use it casually. ”
Michael stopped talking, but fell into deep thought.
***
"The battlefield has been basically cleaned."
Aboard Aegis' aboard the Floating Mothership, Maria Hill reports to the new Director-General. Tony Stark sat behind his desk, his chin propped up with his hands, and his face looked rather tired.
And rightfully so. As a mortal who had just gone through a battle with the gods, he should indeed be weary.
"Yes." Tony rubbed the bridge of his nose.
"Most of the people who have been Heavenly Hammer Venerables have been contained and are now undergoing thorough quarantine checks." Hill continued, "Except for that Venom. After the battle, his whereabouts were unknown, along with the squad that called itself 'Heavenly Sword'. Including those Heavenly Hammers, they are all gone, and they should have been taken away by the 'Heavenly Sword'......"
"Hmm." Tony answered.
"We have arranged a search. All the surveillance systems and intelligence networks that Aegis can control, we are already searching for the members of that super team. We already know that the leader of that team is Wanda Maximoff, and the team also includes her brother Pietro Maximoff and Daisy Johnson. Although we don't have any clues about their whereabouts for the time being, we believe that we will be able to ...... soon."
Hill paused.
"Director Stark," she asked suddenly, "are you listening?" ”
"yes, listen." Tony's face was gloomy and his chin was on his hands, "But even if we find them, so what? ”
"I'm sorry, Director, what did you say?"
"I mean, Aegis lacks effective means right now." Tony said, "Whether it's the Great Snake or the previous attack of Atlantis, there is no room for Aegis to play a role on such a battlefield. Even if we can find that Heavenly Sword team, what can we do? Do you go to your door with a registration bill and force them to sign it with the letter of the law? ”
Hill was silent for a while.
"So Chief Stark, what do you mean ......"
"Aegis needs to change." Tony muttered, "We need to be stronger. ”
