It's Christmas Eve again.

On this beautiful night, the god of winter quietly descended, bringing heavy snow as a gift, but although the air was a little cold, it still did not affect the interest of citizens and tourists, and the rebuilt Times Square was more vibrant than before, and under the neon lights of the day, the infinite figures surged like a tide.

This city has a unique rhythm and charm that other countries or other cities can't learn, it not only retains the status of the largest city on the earth, but also faintly becomes the center of communication in the whole universe, where you can see a very different style from other places, both technology and economy are far beyond other regions, and its permanent residents are no longer simply earthlings, but races from various star fields, both the close neighbors of the nine star fields, as well as distant visitors such as the Cree and the Xanders, who have indigo or pink skin, may have thick hairs or horns, and breathe frost and flames. In short, they look strange, but the locals have become accustomed to it, and they are even very proud to show it off as a unique capital, and the outsiders who come to them can only marvel at it.

Walking along Broadway, surrounded by dozens of theaters, if you're feeling noisy and looking for peace of mind, head north until you reach the world-famous Floating Palace, which used to be a feast for superpowers, but is now open to all and has become one of New York's landmarks alongside the Statue of Liberty----.

Above the bustling city, there are thick clouds, above which twinkle with stars, and through the endless starry sky, time and space gradually turn into a vast galaxy, and Eric is sitting alone in this vast river. Quietly dominates an untold war.

Opposite him was another dark red galaxy from where he had come from, but now he had to fend off an onslaught from the other side that seemed to be on the off steam forever.

The dark void was torn apart, and the two galaxies crossed this arena from time to time to fight each other, and in the fluctuations of energy and matter, light and shadow were disillusioned, and brilliant fireworks erupted from time to time.

For a moment, the void began to shine, and a round of the sun appeared on the battlefield for no reason, roaring and turning into an angry chariot. Whizzed away to the other side.

Then a thunderbolt followed, shattering the reckless chariot of fire and turning it into a rain of light and darkness.

Such explosions occurred all the time, and countless star-like blazing lights united and converged into a mighty blood-colored torrent, rushing and setting off thousands of waves, all the way to Eric's feet.

On Eric's side, the power of the entire galaxy was mobilized like an efficient and powerful war machine. Methodical and automatic operation. Under his auspices, countless powerful forces united to condense a transparent will, forming layers of delicate and ingenious strong defenses.

The blood-colored torrent crashed headlong into the defenses, and the two galaxies shook at the same time.

The ordinary people who live in it may never know about such a fierce war. But both sides involved in the war have done their best in this collision.

The will of the other side in the torrent shouted, and every tremor fell countless elites, but it could not help but move forward, as an aging and tired world. Only by seizing the resources of the new world can it be revitalized.

Eric saw this, and only calmly mobilized the power of this world to keep the foreign invasion from the outside. From time to time, seize the opportunity to fight back at the right time, and throw seeds into the dark red world one by one, making it even more exhausted.

The war lasted for an unknown amount of time, and time lost its meaning here, and when the torrent finally exhausted and retracted back to the starting galaxy, Eric did not pursue, he just patched up the holes created in the battle one by one, and completely eradicated the tentacles stretched out by the main god.

He is the strongest in this world, and it is an unshirkable obligation to protect his world.

When all the gaps were healed, Eric slowly rose into the sky, quietly watching this deep and boundless world, in the two distant voids, there are shining stars as brilliant as clouds and mist, at this moment in those distant stars, maybe there are people silently observing themselves.

Suddenly, Eric remembered his friends who had fought side by side in the past, and perhaps they were scattered across the galaxy, fighting for their own destiny as well.

The thought crossed my mind like a little light.

He made a decision.

Turning over the palm of his hand, a gem the size of sand and gravel came out of nothing, slowly condensing in the center of his palm. It was crystal clear, and it looked like the Infinity Stones he had absorbed, fluctuating with a faint power.

The next moment, the gem was gently thrown out and plunged into a strange galaxy in a wonderful arc.

The mind followed until he felt the gem fall from the sky and into the hands of a young man, and Eric smiled, then turned and disappeared into the galaxy.

This day is not only Christmas Eve, but also the new mayor George . Stacy's cocktail party to celebrate the success of the campaign. After going through so many ups and downs, George, as the former New York Police Commissioner, should have a bright future, but everyone knows that he gave birth to a good daughter, Miss Stacy not only has a deep relationship with the college, but also has personal friendships with many high-status women, so after stepping down from the director's throne, Mr. Stacy not only did not fall into a low point in his life as others expected, but because of the support of all parties, he took a step forward in his career and was fortunate to write his name in the history of the city.

George specially convened this ball, inviting many famous people, including Spider-Man, whom he had always looked down on---- not because he and Peter had given up their old suspicions, but because he had recently discovered that the troublemaker's uncle was an old janitor who had worked for the academy for many years.

By this time, Peter had taken off his mask and mingled with his friends on a plate full of snacks.

"You know, I saw the director of S.H.I.E.L.D. some time ago, he was standing at the crossroads in a daze, I jumped over his head without noticing, and then I turned around and realized that it was such a person, and he glared at me fiercely...... I said, he wouldn't be offended and secretly ask his men to arrest me, would he? ”

After taking off the mask, Peter always felt that his confidence would be weaker, and he was also a little jealous of Fury.

"What are you afraid of, call me in time if something happens, and Osborne's lawyer team can accuse them on your behalf." Harry disagrees with his friend's concerns, he is also a billionaire, and he himself has participated in Eric's team, so he knows something about the internal situation of S.H.I.E.L.D. In Harry's opinion, a disgraced Lord was not much to fear.

"I said guys, you should take your eyes off men, there is more in the world that we are after. See, there is the brightest star of the whole party, who dares to take her off? Johnny Thunderbolt was on the sidelines, but neither Peter nor Harry were fooled.

They have seen precedents for others to be rejected, including Johnny and Tony. A playboy like Stark.

Those who can refuse them will certainly not be ordinary people.

It was the daughter of the prom convener, Gwen. Stacy.

The mayor's daughter was dressed in costume, but she didn't accept an invitation to the ball.

It's not that she's arrogant and reserved by nature, it's for an appointment---- like the balls she's held in the past two years, and she's been waiting for someone to fulfill that promise.

But as time passed, the man did not appear as always.

Seeing that the dance was coming to an end, Gwen snuggled wearily on the couch, faintly thinking that maybe this was another meaningless wait.

Maybe the other party has long forgotten this agreement, after all, he is the world's leading big man, and there should be a lot of things to deal with every day.

Gwen thought to herself, feeling depressed and depressed.

Just before the bell rang, the door opened, and a man walked in, and walked through the noisy dance floor to Miss Stacy.

"Sorry, I'm late. But I remember we had a pact that we could now ask Miss Gwen to dance with me? ”

The visitor asked with a smile.

A thousand words came through her heart in an instant, but she didn't say anything.

After looking at him for a while, Gwen finally had a smile on her face.
