The group left the mysterious clone area in the laboratory, and as White Night led them, they walked through a long corridor to the heart of the laboratory, the conference room.

The room is designed to be very spacious and bright, with large transparent glass windows that let in the starlight from the outside.

On the conference table, a transparent touch screen with a strong sense of futuristic technology is placed, and a projector is projected on the wall to display various data charts. Bai Ye walked to the chairman's position and motioned for everyone to sit down in the surrounding seats.

Star-Lord, the Silver Glider, and the others found their seats, looking around curiously.

"Welcome to our headquarters. It is a central area for other scientists to conduct research, planning, and decision-making. Please feel free to ask questions and I will try to answer them. Bai Ye sat in the chairman's seat and said to everyone with a smile.

Star-Lord teased as he searched for a seat, "Oh, this place is really tall, more luxurious than my ship used to be." But isn't your headquarters a little too deserted? ”

Bai Ye chuckled and explained:

"Our headquarters is doing research and planning most of the time, and people don't stay here all the time. Moreover, we are more concerned about efficiency and confidentiality, so there are relatively few redundant personnel. ”

"What has happened on Earth all these years? I was captured by the Church of Universal Truth, and I couldn't pay attention to the outside world anymore, and now I look at it, why have so many places become deserts? ”

The silver glider was silent for a moment, then raised his hand and asked, he really didn't know anything about the outside world all these years.

Bai Ye smiled slightly and nodded: "Indeed, the earth has undergone earth-shaking changes over the years. About forty years ago, a huge war swept across the planet. That war wiped out almost all superheroes and plunged the world into chaos. ”

Hawkeye quickly interjected, "Yes, that war was famous, and almost all superheroes were involved in it. The enemy's forces are unusually strong, and we have paid a huge price. The aftermath of that war is still affecting the world today. ”

"Wait, you said forty years ago? At that time, wasn't there supposed to be a bunch of great heroes on Earth who were keeping the peace? How could it be like this? The silver glider added.

Bai Ye sighed and explained, "The enemies of the war are those villains, and when they are united, their technology and strength are far beyond imagination. Even the superheroes of that time could hardly resist their invasion. Although the Avengers tried their best, they were ultimately defeated. ”

The silver glider was silent for a moment, then showed a hint of sadness: "It's unbelievable that when I left this planet, the earth was still a relatively peaceful place. I didn't expect it to be like this decades later. ”

"Yes, after the war, the earth was plunged into a period of turmoil. Resource scarcity, environmental degradation and the legacy of war have led to desertification in large areas. In order to survive, people began to look for new ways and resources. ”

Hawkeye added: "After the war, a number of recovery forces emerged, including the organization we are in now. But the situation for the whole planet is not optimistic, and more cooperation and efforts are needed to build a new future. ”

Star-Lord shrugged his shoulders and looked out the window at the dark starry sky, "Looks like the timing of my return is just right." The planet needs more heroes. ”

White Night smiled and nodded, "Yes, Star-Lord, we need more strength to maintain peace on Earth. Your addition will make our team even stronger. ”

Just as everyone was in the conference room, the heavy door slowly opened. A staff member in white overalls pushed the door open, carrying a tray with a delicate tea set.

She walked up to everyone with a smile and expertly poured a cup of hot tea for each person. Tea rises with a pleasant aroma, as if infused with a hint of warmth in this moment of silence.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please taste our special teas. Made from plants endemic to our lab, it has a soothing effect on the mind and hopefully brings some peace and relaxation to everyone. The staff said respectfully.

She moved like a cloud, pouring tea for everyone, and while pouring tea for everyone, she set her eyes on the white night and nodded slightly. Bai Ye smiled and nodded to her in thanks.

Star-Lord took the teacup, sniffed the faint aroma, and said with a smile: "Yo, it seems that this is not only a high-tech laboratory, but even the tea is so technological." ”

The staff smiled and responded: "This is our unique formula, which has been carefully studied by scientists to provide a unique taste experience." Hope you will enjoy it. ”

Hawkeye picked up the teacup, gently blew the heat on the surface, then took a sip and nodded with satisfaction: "Yes, it is indeed unusual." ”

Bai Ye took the teacup, felt the warmth in his hand, and smiled slightly: "Thank you, this is exactly what we need." It's been a hard work. ”

The staff bowed slightly, then silently exited the conference room and closed the door gently. In the warm aroma of tea, everyone gradually found a relaxed atmosphere, as if at this moment, the burden of the world was temporarily stranded.

As everyone basked in the silence of the tea break, the silence was broken by a sudden screeching siren. Everyone's expressions tensed instantly, and they stood up almost at the same time, their eyes locked on the conference table.

At this moment, the staff who had delivered tea rushed into the room in a hurry, with an anxious look on his face. She said eagerly: "There is an emergency! There are unknown objects that are crossing the atmosphere, and we need to act quickly. ”

Bai Ye frowned, immediately stood up, looked at everyone and said, "We can't take it lightly, go to the monitoring center immediately to understand the situation." Everybody follow me. ”

The heroes nodded their heads and followed Bai Ye out of the conference room, through the corridor, and quickly towards the monitoring center.

The crowd rushed to the command center, and the images displayed on the screen caught their attention. A giant in purple armor appeared in it, like a moving fortress. This is the legendary Eater of Planets.

The Devourer of Planets is tall and majestic, and the surface of its armor emits a mysterious purple light, like a lonely star in the starry sky. His eyes were like deep black holes, emotionless, only endless depth.

The huge armor was inlaid with strange runes, emitting ancient and intense energy fluctuations. His limbs were strong and powerful, and his helmet was tapered to hide his face, revealing only a purple glow.

Bai Ye frowned and stared at the purple armored giant on the screen. Around him, all the heroes also had solemn expressions.

Star-Lord muttered, "This isn't fun. ”

"I didn't expect the Devourer of Planets to come so quickly."
