Chapter Seventy-Five: Accidental Activation
After months of hard work, Loki managed to break into the interior of the spaceship. and succeeded in knowing its master, the Eternal Titan who was called Thanos by the entire universe.
Loki knew him and knew that he was a madman who had spent his life working to balance life within the universe. And his method of balancing life is crazy and cruel, and that is to achieve a state of resource balance by destroying half of the population of a civilization.
However, although his idea is crazy, what is even crazier than his idea is that he actually has the strength to realize his plan. Even Loki's father, the god-king Odin, is jealous of him.
He was so afraid that he was reluctant to even put the cosmic magic and aether particles that were also Infinity Stones in Asgard, for fear of attracting the prying eyes of Thanos and causing a war between Asgard and Thanos' forces.
After knowing that this spaceship was Thanos's power, Loki suddenly had an idea in his heart that he also thought was crazy, that is, by borrowing the power of Thanos to capture Midgard, one of the Nine Realms, and become the Lord of Midgard. Loki thinks that if he becomes the leader of the term, he will be able to gain the same status in Odin's heart as Thor.
As for why he didn't attack Asgard directly, nonsense, Loki still has his own bonds with Asgard, so Loki will definitely not do such a thing as directing the war to Asgard.
And why did he choose Midgard, Loki has another layer of his own considerations. That is, he knew that Thanos would definitely not help him in vain, so he prepared a gift for Thanos. A gift that Thanos can't refuse, that is, the whereabouts of one of the six Infinity Stones in the universe, the Space Gem. Because according to what Loki knows, the Space Gem, one of the six Infinity Stones in the universe, is now above Midgard.
"I will pass on your words to the great Thanos, and if what you say is true, you will become the master of that planet." The leader of Zetari replied to Loki's words only lightly.
In fact, what Loki didn't know was that whether it was his appearance or the idea of trading with space gems to borrow Zetari's army to attack the earth, it was actually Thanos' arrangement.
All along, Thanos knew that the Space Gem was on Earth. But it is not good for Thanos to go to Earth to snatch this space gem, because Thanos knows that there are two guardians on Earth now. One is the current Lord of Asgard, the god-king Odin.
For Odin, Thanos has an understanding. Just as Odin was afraid of him, he was actually afraid of Odin.
He knew that Odin had also collected Infinity Stones when he was young, although he didn't know why he gave up later, and he gave away all the Infinity Stones in his hand.
But this does not prevent Thanos from being afraid of this god king who conquered the universe thousands of years ago and brought all the nine realms into his rule.
And another person on the earth who makes him jealous is the supreme mage who has seen one of the five gods of the universe in the legend, the ancient one.
For Thanos, now is not the time to fight against these two patrons of humanity.
So after discovering Loki floating in the space-time portal, a plan appeared in Thanos's head, he wanted Loki, the prince of Asgard, to take the space gem from the hands of humans for him.
And Thanos is also looking forward to whether the Ancient One, who leads to the patron saint of the earth, will have a conflict with Asgard because of Loki, the prince of Asgard. If there really is a conflict between them because of this, it will really be great news for Thanos.
As for how to get Loki to help him obediently, Thanos is still very confident in this. Because he also has an Infinity Stone in his hand, which is a mind gem that can control the minds of others.
Although the attack power of this Infinity Stone is not very strong, at this time, this Infinity Stone is undoubtedly the most suitable.
And just when Thanos used the Mind Gem on Loki, far away on Earth, in a secret base of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Because of his successive missions in New Mexico and spying on Tony, Coulson was sent to preside over a security job called Project Pegasus.
"Sir, the energy of the Rubik's Cube is rising." Coulson, who was sipping coffee, heard Agent Barton's voice in his ears.
Probably because he followed Coulson on several missions, Hawkeye, whose ability was affirmed, also followed Coulson to this research base that can be considered classified. And tonight it happened to be Barton on duty, and as a result, he received an alert from several staff members who had been watching the Rubik's Cube.
"Well, what's going on, I don't seem to remember an order from above to conduct an energy experiment."
Coulson frowned, he didn't remember receiving an order to experiment today.
"No one has operated on it, it started on its own, it's just that during the time I've been on duty, I haven't seen a single person approach it."
For his own eyes, Hawkeye has absolute confidence, and no one should be able to avoid his gaze, and then touch the Rubik's Cube of the universe under his nose.
"Damn, did you disconnect the switch?" Coulson asked Barton as he began to run towards the location of the Rubik's Cube. He was going to see what was going on, and then decided not to report it to his superiors, that is, to Nick Fury.
But when Coulson arrives at the experimental site of the Cosmic Rubik's Cube, he realizes that something is wrong. Because at this time, the cosmic Rubik's Cube is constantly exploding with clouds of blue energy, which doesn't look like a normal situation, right?
"Sir, did you say that this cosmic cube was activated from the other direction?" Looking at the cosmic cube with stronger and stronger energy, an idea suddenly popped into Hawkeye's mind.
"Started from the other direction?" Coulson knows what Hawkeye means, as Captain America wakes up, and they also know the details of the last battle between Team America and Hydra leader Red Skull during World War II.
I also knew that the Red Skull was teleported directly to the other side of the universe after touching this cosmic Rubik's Cube. Therefore, everyone in S.H.I.E.L.D. also knows that this cosmic cube can not only be used to absorb energy, but also has a function that can be used for spatial teleportation.
And now the performance of the Cosmic Rubik's Cube is exactly the same as the picture of the legend opened in the mouth of the American team Steve.
"Damn, notify the researchers to evacuate, all armed men come down!"
Looking at the performance of the Cosmic Rubik's Cube, Coulson was not sure if it was going to open any spatial passages. But he thought it was right to let the researchers evacuate, and to let the armed men come down as a precaution.
As for the next move of this cosmic Rubik's cube may not be to open the portal, but a big explosion, then Coulson can only say that their luck is not good. But they couldn't just let that leave and let something that could be alien enter the planet at will. And if necessary, Coulson has also prepared the self-destruction procedure to open the base, and plans to die with the alien that came over.
However, although Coulson has a lot of drama in his heart, it is not as fast as the action of the Cosmic Rubik's Cube.
I saw that all the energy that was originally wrapped around the edge of the Cosmic Cube suddenly entered the Cosmic Rubik's Cube, and then a blue column of energy shot out from the Cosmic Rubik's Cube.
This pillar of energy did not fly far, but reached the end at a distance of about 5 meters. Then Coulson and the others saw that with the washing of this energy pillar, a blue mist slowly appeared in front of the Cosmic Rubik's Cube.
After the fog cleared, a spatial door appeared. Through this spatial door, Coulson could see that on the other side was a world similar to Earth, but now the world seemed to be in the apocalypse, full of ruined buildings.
Duan!!!
Just when everyone looked at each other and didn't know what to do now, a loud noise suddenly came from the other end of the space door. The sound is similar to the sound of our gongs, but it's much more than that.
Then, just as everyone was lifted by this sound, a figure flew from the spatial gate to the secret base of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Brush!
At the moment when the figure had just crossed the line, the space door opened by the Cosmic Rubik's Cube was closed. And at the last moment when the door of this space closed, Coulson and the others passed through the door of space and saw a fist that was almost half a person high.
