Chapter 251: If you want to get rich, the highway

Power Gem.

Gemstones of the Mind.

A virtual aggregate of Time Gem rules.

and a half-grown baby drooling and nibbling on a power gem that emits a purple halo.

Seeing this scene, Luke couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

How could he have come into contact with the power of the four Infinity Stones before he knew it? Oh, and there's a gem of reality on the body of Malekis, who is scurrying around the world, hiding from Nidavel's pursuit. If nothing else, he will be caught by the abyss sooner or later. In that case, there will only be one so-called soul gem, and he will collect the so-called six god costumes of the universe?

But after thinking about it, it seems that there is no big change in the collection.

After all, no matter what, according to what the ancient one said to himself, sooner or later he will break through the monolithic universe and go to the multiverse.

Everything that happens in the barren land is transmitted back to the original data dimension. Using the data dimension that has rapidly expanded into the virtual dark side of the universe, Luke can't help but intervene in it.

For example, in the end, the power gem is used to provide energy, connecting the data dimension with the barren land, and embodying a small piece of the data dimension in the main universe.

In other words, the data dimension has an additional physical import and export in this universe like a celestial black hole.

Luke wasted so much energy to manifest such an input and output port, of course, some thoughts suddenly came to his heart. These thoughts are said to be a flash of inspiration, but it's not that much, it's just a fragmentary idea that I had before, and suddenly I met the right time, and I couldn't help but lay it out first.

Because he found that if those dimensional demon gods were high-end customers, those large and small civilizations and organizations in the universe seemed to be barely low-end customers. After all, a Thanos's dark quadrant, the collector's treasure, and the Kree Empire's fleet and weapons brought Luke a lot of surprises.

The Obsidian Five General Luke didn't care, and neither did the accuser Ronan and his fleet and weapons, but they succeeded in achieving one of Luke's ideas after combining with the data dimension, which made Luke care a lot.

Multiverse Dimension Trading Grounds.

Luke solemnly wrote his name on the plan.

……

Asgard.

Odin had begun to relinquish power and let his two sons run Asgard's affairs. So during this time, Thor and Loki were almost busy with their feet on the ground.

Although the war is over temporarily, the subsequent troubles and the accumulation of affairs that need to be dealt with can indeed drown the two brothers entirely. Not to mention anything else, just a post-war reconstruction plan for the Nine Realms made the two brothers almost scratch their scalps.

Thor's brain was no longer just muscles, but it was clear that these things were still beyond his capabilities. Although Loki is smart and has a certain amount of brains, he is still good at intrigue and intrigues, and he is serious about doing things, which is also a master of the eye. So the two of them were almost in pain in the early stage.

Leave it at that?

Behind it was the silent and serious face of the god-king Odin, and the electric glow of Gungnir.

The brothers didn't understand why their father had suddenly rushed ducks to the shelves and started tossing the two of them desperately.

Mephisto was also jumping up and down in the Nine Realms during this time, and Odin's idle energy, except for hating iron and steel, stared at his two stupid sons, was all on Mephisto's body.

Whether it is a combination of interests or not, or whether it is an ally or not, Mephisto is not a reassuring master. Odin felt that if he didn't keep an eye on it, even if he was bound by the contract, Mephisto would be able to make the Nine Realms full of loopholes and turn it into his own backyard in disguise.

The Nine Realms is a circular whole, and for the sake of the balance of the Nine Realms, Odin will never allow Mephisto to play some tricks to upset this balance. Especially now that the World Tree is still in a period of weakness that is gradually recovering.

Having banished the Dwarven Star of Nidavile, the exiled heaven was pulled back into the World Tree as part of the cycle. It also takes time to gradually adjust and stabilize.

So most of the time, whenever Mephisto showed up, Odin would take him for a cup of tea and have a chat about self-cultivation.

Mephisto couldn't do anything about Odin's anti-thief measures. After all, he's used to this kind of treatment wherever he goes. Even as a collaborator, he didn't pick up Gangenir to move his muscles and bones with him, which already reflected the results of Odin's current self-cultivation.

As for the Ancient One?

She might foil his plans with all sorts of surprises, and then kick his demons back into the Hell dimension.

Mephisto and Odin, who were self-cultivation, were discussing when to settle Surtr and Raul, and suddenly raised their heads as if they sensed something.

A brilliant dimensional portal rose in front of the two of them.

……

Kama Taj.

"I think we need to be honest and honest with each other." Strange shouted at Mordo, who saw him turn and leave.

Mordo, who was stopped, turned around, looked at Strange and said, "What do you want to talk about?" ”

"Talk about what should be discussed. I know I'm taking your place, and you're upset. ”

"Watch your words, Strange Mage." Mordo interrupted Strange with a wave of his hand.

"You see, you don't even want to call me a Supreme Mage. I know before I came, you thought this position should be yours. But that's not my problem. Strange spread his hands.

"No one said it was your problem. I do have a lot of reverence and yearning for the position of the Supreme Master. But I know that I should not be the most satisfactory successor of the Ancient One. Mordo said with a straight face.

"You're actually pretty good...... Oh no, wait a minute, I'm not done yet! Strange said, suddenly looking at the sky with Mordo, as if sensing something.

During the day, the sky lit up as brightly as the stars in the night, and at the sound of Strange's refusal, a pillar of light fell from the sky, covering Strange with precision. By the time the pillar of light had vanished, Strange had disappeared in place.

……

ON AN AIRCRAFT CARRIER OF S.H.I.E.L.D.

As a carrier that was born and faced obsolescence, it has now completely degenerated into a mobile office platform for S.H.I.E.L.D. Nick Fury sat in the main seat of the console, mentally calculating how much good he could get out of Luke with a loan from Strange.

Although Osborne and other companies have grown rapidly under the blood transfusion of S.H.I.E.L.D. and Hyperion, their technology and equipment are still far from the top standards in Nick's heart.

After all, Nick, who has seen the power of the demon god, has already broadened his horizons. What he needed was something that could be involved in that high-end level of power. For a while, he was tempted to use the pager he used as his final hole card to summon Ms. Marvel back. But this impulse was only thought about in my head, and it was restrained.

Ms. Marvel is his friend, but not a subordinate. He couldn't ask Carol's combat power as S.H.I.E.L.D. to imprison her here. I am afraid that the other party will never accept this arrangement.

The captain's strength has grown rapidly, but he is now so focused on his duties that Stark is said to have missed several times from their internal group gatherings.

Frank, yes, the old friend he cultivated by accumulating resources, although he was still willing to give him face, he turned around and went to Hebleen to sell himself, in the name of making money to pay off his debts. A large number of security personnel are trained for Heblelen.

It's not in S.H.I.E.L.D.!

Nick sighed deeply. Count his family background and the number of talents, even the strongest, in the disaster that he expected, that is, a high-end cannon fodder role. This made Nick feel uneasy.

He knew very well that the power that S.H.I.E.L.D. now had in his hands was already a relatively powerful force in the atrium. It's okay to maintain law and order.

But it's a pity that Nick, including those behind Nick, can't accept that S.H.I.E.L.D. is gradually degenerating into an auxiliary security organization. After all, S.H.I.E.L.D.'s presence within the group is too low. They are all worried that one day they will be completely thrown out of the circle by those elders because their sense of existence is too low.

This sense of precariousness surrounds Nick all the time, making him very worried. At present, the only way to enhance the power of S.H.I.E.L.D. and get rid of some of this embarrassing and transparent character identity seems to be the only way to deeply bind and get closer to Luke's Hyperion for the time being.

After all, Luke is the only one who has always been supportive of S.H.I.E.L.D., or rather him. Although he also carried a lot of black pots for this and helped deal with a bunch of complicated affairs, in general, the cooperation between the two parties has been quite pleasant so far.

Except for Luke's Hybolen, there seems to be no other force willing to help them, and they can help them.

Strange declined his request for the time being, the god king Odin would not go over the Supreme Mage and Luke and easily intervene in the affairs of the court, Mephisto might help, but Nick still understands the truth of luring wolves into the house. Even if the people behind him are confused, he will flatly refuse. At least without the participation of Luke and Strange witnesses, it is impossible for S.H.I.E.L.D. to cooperate with Mephisto in any sense.

Counting them, it's still just Luke.

Nick was helpless. Then, he was engulfed by a sudden cloud of energy behind him, and his figure disappeared in full view of many agents.

……

"Can't you just remind you in advance before we have a meeting?" Strange's figure appeared at the conference table in the place that belonged to the Supreme Mage, and as soon as he appeared, he let out a grumbling sound. It was only with great difficulty that he seized the opportunity to communicate with Mordo, who was hiding from him, and even used a little of the power of Agamotto's Eye. Everything was fine, but before he could finish his communication, he was interrupted by a sudden accident.

"Are you going to deal with the two of Surtr? I would suggest getting rid of Raul first, he is relatively weak. "Mephisto is now a bit of a habit of having a meeting every now and then to discuss something.

After all, as a dimensional lord, it is still rare to be able to sit and communicate calmly with collaborators of relatively equal strength. At least the first time I saw him appear in the Nine Realms before, Odin would never have held Gungnir and invited him to drink with Yan Yuese, and if he didn't throw him over and stab him in the heart, it was already considered that Odin had a good temper.

"Raul, they're not in a hurry, we haven't determined where they are yet. At this meeting, there is a business that needs to be invested. Luke tapped on the table in front of him.

Odin, who had been leaning forward, heard Luke's words, and immediately put his back on the back of the chair behind him in disinterest. Ancient One and Strange looked the same as usual, and the two masters and apprentices were exchanging something in a friendly whisper.

Mephisto was interested. Or rather, he was interested in everything that would benefit him.

As for Nick, who was forcibly brought over and didn't even receive the notice, he touched his empty pocket, oh no, there was a loan in his pocket, and his expression was hesitant.

"We've been focusing our attention and energy on other dimensional gods and gods, ignoring other groups that may also bring us profits and become bank customers."

Luke's words immediately attracted the attention of everyone at the conference table.

"Elaborate." Mephisto rubbed his hands.

"The major civilizations and life forms in this universe, after making corresponding preparations, can also bring us a huge supply of energy. A universe may not be able to match the group of dimensional demon gods, but what if it is placed in the multiverse? In the infinite multiverse, how much energy can those civilizations and lives bring to us?

Even if it is the top civilization, it is much less difficult to attack them than to attack those dimensional demon gods. We not only need to have high-end customers, but also need to fill and develop a large number of low-end customers. Luke said: "I believe that Mephisto must have the coordinates of other universes in your hands, and I can provide the technology to travel through the multiverse."

I've recently set up an experimental trading ground where we can do business with those civilizations and see what happens. You can also wait and see.

If this model holds, then we can open similar trading venues in many multiverses, and add various functional modules to it according to the requirements of customers and our needs.

We can describe it externally as a high-speed road of communication and exchange between civilization and the universe, the road of life, the road of evolution, and so on. As long as the civilization we cultivate and win over becomes stronger, other civilizations and organizations that are unwilling to join will be forced to join or be destroyed. Ultimately, we can harvest the entire universe easily and sustainably. Of course, this is a long-term plan. ”

"In addition, I propose to bring in a new partner. Her abilities will be a considerable complement to our plans. ”

Luke drew one sweet pie after another at the end, and made a proposal to cheer everyone up.

"Who do you want to invite?" Mephisto asked reluctantly.

"Dream Demon!" Luke gave the pick.
