Chapter 121: The Passage Opens
"Thank you." Looking at Natasha's back, Banner thanked him loudly.
"You should thank someone, after all, you almost beat her to death."
“······”
"Before I get down to business, I'm going to tell you one thing. I'm not here to explain, but to tell you that many things are not what you know.
Yes, we were thinking about using the Cosmic Cube to develop some advanced weapons under the threat of aliens, after all, Hydra's previous equipment has proven that this path is feasible.
But I also know that weapons are such things as a matter of who is using them. Just as captains can capture their weapons, if our warriors can't, our weapons will one day be captured by the enemy, so I didn't put the treasure on this one.
Because I had a much bolder plan, and I had spoken to Clark and Tony before, even though neither of them had agreed to me at the time.
I'm going to gather some of the most capable people to form a team dedicated to protecting the Earth, and the name of my project is 'Project Avengers'.
I wondered if the Avengers, a coalition of powerful people, were stronger than they were on their own, to win wars that we couldn't have won.
Because people believe in heroes, and they need heroes! ”
After saying that, Nick Fury looked at the people seated.
"Does this have anything to do with me?" At this time, Banner, who was beside Clark, whispered to him. After all, in Banner's opinion, don't say it's a hero, it's good if he doesn't become a villain after he transforms.
"Banner, Hulk is a thinker. I think if you accept him, maybe you can coexist. After thinking about it for a while, Clark still revealed something to Banner, after all, it wouldn't be a bad thing if Banner could control the Hulk.
"Okay, maybe I'm outdated, then let's talk about Loki and the Cosmic Rubik's Cube." Nick Fury watched as none of the people present chose to ignore him after his heartfelt words, and knew that what he had just said might have been in vain.
"I think Loki needs a source of energy that can provide him with a constant supply of powerful energy, and if we can get ahead of Loki and know where he's going, we might be able to catch him off guard."
Probably trying to make up for the damage he inflicted, Banner offered his opinion after Nick Fury's words.
"He needs an audience!" At this moment, Tony, who had been pondering without speaking, suddenly spoke.
"Audience?" Steve didn't understand why Tony was saying this.
"I think I probably understood what Tony meant, I think Loki wants to occupy the Earth not because he wants to rule the Earth, but to show Odin, and I also understand a little bit about Loki's conflict in Asgard Thor. Although this was originally their family, I think it would be good for you to know about it as a preface.
In fact, Loki is not Odin's child, but picked up. After Tony's words, Clark suddenly understood why Loki was doing this.
"It seems that Thor said before that Loki was adopted." Diana nodded, indicating that Thor had said this before.
So Loki thinks that the reason why Odin did not pass the throne of Asgard to him is because he is not Odin's child. So Loki always wanted to prove himself and prove that he had what it took to be a king.
It was like that in Asgard before, and I think it's the same way this time he's here on Earth. ”
"Yes, that's right, he doesn't just want to win, he wants people to watch him win. That's why Loki was deliberately caught by us, he just wanted to get others to participate in his performance. In Stuttgart before, it was one of his attempts. And now he's about to succeed, so he needs an audience, he needs flowers, he needs applause. The more Tony thought about it, the more he realized he had guessed correctly.
"He also needs a stage to perform, a stage with energy of its own, Tony." As he spoke, Clark handed Tony a tablet, which showed Tony's newly built Stark Building, as well as news about his development of clean energy.
"I'm grass!" After seeing the tablet that Clark handed over, Tony also realized that the next place Loki was going to be was the Stark Building he had just built.
At the same time, Nick Fury, who also thought of something, pressed the communication switch of the headset and said, "Ciel, hurry up and restore the communication equipment." Then send a satellite to monitor Stark Tower, and I'll find out where there's anything special going on right now. ”
"No, Loki is there, and Jarvis reports that the energy in Stark Mansion is running out rapidly. But I've ordered Jarvis to shut down the Ark reactor, and hopefully I can catch up. With that, Tony put down the small tablet in his hand, then got up and walked outside.
But at this moment, Clark suddenly turned around, and he felt the energy fluctuations of the Cosmic Rubik's Cube, and the Cosmic Rubik's Cube was activated! And at the moment when Clark looked out the window, a pillar of blue light in the distance directly penetrated the heavens and the earth.
"Diana, you and Banner and the captain, I'll fly over first." Looking at this pillar of light, Clark knew that Loki had succeeded now. However, he didn't expect that Loki's side would move so fast, and before they could figure it out, Loki had already opened the spatial passage.
Although Clark wants to run in with the Avengers through this battle, at the same time, Clark doesn't want these aliens of Zetari to cause too much damage to Earth.
So this time Loki's action so quickly was completely unexpected by Clark, and all he could do now was hurry over and see if he could remedy it.
"Am I going too?" Banner didn't expect Clark to also call his name, he was a logistics officer.
"Banner, now we need the Hulk." With that, Clark left the command room.
Banner couldn't help but be silent in the face of Clark's words, he was struggling to think about whether to let Hulk out.
"Clark, take me." Just as Clark was leaving the command room, Diana caught up with her.
"I'll go with you, Steve, they can't fly, it's too slow." As she spoke, Diana opened her hands to Clark.
Clark looked at the huge wormholes that were gradually appearing in the sky in the distance, and he knew that it was estimated that Zetarians would soon come to Earth through this spatial passage. But at this time, everyone in the Avengers was not ready to go, so basically there was no hesitation, Clark directly reached out and put his arm around Diana's thin waist, and kicked his feet into the sky.
And just after Clark left, Tony, who was in red steel, also flew out of the air carrier.
"Clark, throw me down."
After coming to the vicinity of the space wormhole, Diana said to Clark, because at this time, many alien soldiers from the space wormhole had appeared in the sky over New York.
Looking at the alien soldiers who were scattering quickly, Clark nodded, and then threw Diana at a flying Zeta Swiss soldier and flew towards Stark Tower.
Seconds later, Clark arrived at the top of Stark Tower. Looking at the cosmic cube in front of him, which was constantly shooting out energy, Clark hesitated for a moment, but planned to try it and see if he could turn it off.
After all, Clark also has the energy of the Cosmic Rubik's Cube, and the way to close this space door in the original book is not to use the energy of the Mind Gem to pierce the energy protection of the Cosmic Rubik's Cube. If Clark could close the Cosmic Cube like this, of course it would be best, and if not, then he would have to go to Loki.
