"We deeply apologize for the negative impact of the incident caused by Loki and Thor, and are willing to hand over these two 'demons' as compensation."

Frowning, the swordsman hesitated, glancing at the distant space carrier: "...So, what about that green demon?"

"The demons infiltrated because of our poor personnel screening. The responsibility lies with us, and we can provide compensation accordingly."

Under the stunned gazes of Captain America and Hawkeye, Nick Fury finished speaking expressionlessly: "Furthermore, you'd better not linger on our territory. The abolition of mutants has been completed, and your illegal entry is now over."

"..."

After giving it a cold glance, the swordsman turned and left without looking back.

Before long, the sword lights that had filled the sky disappeared one by one into the gate. With the power of the Cosmic Cube blocking them, this "Earth Invasion War" finally came to an end in this ironic way. However, the outcome for the losers was always the same, and the victors were not necessarily satisfied either.

"Did you drive Meng Liao and his master crazy?!"

These were Black Widow's first words after returning to S.H.I.E.L.D. and finding Nick Fury, while the director of S.H.I.E.L.D. reacted quite calmly: "The fact that I can still sit in this position means I'm not crazy. At least those people won't let a madman wield these dangerous powers."

"But what you just did was no different from what a madman would do—no, even a madman could probably do it better than you!"

Facing the agents' unwavering disgust and anger, Nick Fury helplessly spread his hands: "What do you think our chances of winning this war against them are right now?"

"..."

"Even if Bruce Banner were still alive, Thor still had his hammer and hadn't done those dirty tricks, and Captain America and Hawkeye weren't in their current state, do you think six superheroes could fight against the current 129,600 Swordholders?"

"..."

"No, let alone fighting back, we probably couldn't even escape."

Ignoring Black Widow's unpleasant expression, Nick Fury bluntly stated, "Do you think those 'wolves' came all the way to Metropolis just to do nothing? Just to tell us how many people they died? Or that they killed Bruce Banner? No, no, no, if it were just that, they wouldn't need to show up at all, they could have said nothing—we're all the same to them anyway, but they still showed up."

With his hands clasped together, Nick Fury asked in a somber tone, "What do you think they're here for?"

"..."

"The president didn't want to be the first president to drop a nuclear bomb on his own soil, nor did he want to be the last, so things ended up like this. Madam, anything can be sacrificed in the face of national interests, let alone 'superheroes'..."

Marvel Universe: Chapter 875 Infinity Stones

Two days later, the two princes of the fallen Asgard, along with the Tesseract and the Mind Stone, were sent to the Qionghua region.

In the end, it turned out that Odin's son Thor's conspiracy did not escape the notice of S.H.I.E.L.D. Instead of exposing his conspiracy on the spot, they used it to observe the reaction of the Swordholder, Jonah.

However, the outcome clearly exceeded their expectations. The Swordholders not only did not show any signs of caution or retreat during this trial, but even seemed to intend to invade the American mainland in one fell swoop to "slay the demons and eliminate evil".

When the United States locked nuclear weapons on Metropolis, it wasn't just bluff; they were genuinely prepared to drop nuclear weapons on their own territory, even in a bustling metropolis. Of course, they weren't truly willing to fight to the death. Sacrificing the Hulk, Thor, Loki, the Tesseract, and the Mind Stone for "peace" was the bottom line they were willing to pay.

Ultimately, the swordholders accepted the "deal," or rather, Lin Yi made them accept the deal.

The Swordholders, having generally reached the level of City-level (Level 5), are still not ready to directly confront a nuclear weapon. A large-scale, one-time expenditure would be detrimental to long-term development. While swords can be inherited, experience and the will to explore cannot. Upgrading the Swordholders is simply to allow them to adapt to this elimination mechanism and continuously grow stronger, but using "upgrading" for large-scale consumption deviates from the original intention… at least, it cannot be done at this stage.

In addition, Lin Yi also had considerable interest in the "Cosmic Cube" that could open the gate between realms and the "Mind Gem" that was said to have come from the hands of a cosmic overlord.

……

The first gem is the Cosmic Cube, which possesses spatial power capable of opening spatial portals. Based on its ability to open a gateway from distant stars directly to Earth, it can be inferred that this gem can transport a large amount of weapon resources to extremely distant places.

"Essentially, it is a spatial rule solidified into a specific form."

With a slight squeeze of the hand holding the square gem, the outer shell was crushed, revealing the core inside—a blue stone similar to the Mind Stone, with various nebula-like magnificent scenes inside.

The second gem is the Mind Stone, a yellow gem set in Loki's scepter.

It possesses the ability to allow users to enter the minds of others, and also to allow dreams, thoughts, and intentions to enter the user's brain. It can enhance mental strength and increase spiritual abilities.

If that were all, it would at most be the effect of hypnosis, but when Lin Yi put the two gems together, he discovered an interesting change.

However, when the two gems approach each other, their power is not diminished by the conflict, but rather strengthened by the other gem. The Space Stone's power is manifested in the increased generalization of the spatial rules it can manipulate, while the Mind Stone increases its ability to enter the minds of beings that do not possess complex thinking abilities.

If this level of reinforcement continues, it is estimated that anything that exists could be invaded and its thinking altered.

"interesting."

Sensing the reaction of the two gems as they approached each other, and the subtle yet profound "signals" within those reactions, Lin Yi smiled.

The saying "You may plant flowers with care, but they may not bloom; you may plant willows without intention, and they may thrive" perfectly describes this situation. Traces that had been searched and explored on Earth's "stage" for over half a year without success were found instead through a chain reaction triggered by extraterrestrial visitors.

Qi Ling stopped dancing and died of sulfur. "There should be more fins."

Although there's no specific information, Lin Yi is no longer the same Lin Yi who needed to analyze a single vial of T-virus for several worlds. Based solely on the incomplete reactions of the two gems upon approaching each other, it's reasonable to infer that these gems may have the potential to further deepen their reactions.

What can trigger these gems to react are other similar gems. In other words, there are many things similar to the Space Stone (Tesseract) and the Mind Stone. In addition, the "cosmic overlord" that Loki encountered gave him the task of retrieving the Tesseract on Earth and also bestowed upon him a scepter inlaid with the Mind Stone...

"Thanos."

He opened his palm, and two gems, one blue and one yellow, spun around in it: "Don't disappoint me..."

United States, S.H.I.E.L.D.

"Their power has swelled to a point where we cannot contend with it, and it continues to swell even during our dialogue."

Facing the expressionless Captain America before him, Nick Fury patiently explained, "The choices we made before were the only options available, but we still moved forward... Captain, I can't deny your anger towards me, but at least this country still needs your strength."

His cold expression crumbled, and Steve Rogers gritted his teeth as he stared at the director of S.H.I.E.L.D. before finally speaking after a long pause: "...What do you want to do?"

Relieved, Nick Fury quickly replied, "The Avengers need new members, and this time we will not repeat the situation from last time. We have no other choice but to deal with that growing threat."

As he said this, he turned his gaze behind him and said, "Please come in, Doctor Strange."

"PhD?"

"Of course, you can also call him the Supreme Master."

Under Captain America's puzzled gaze, a typical middle-aged white man dressed in a wizard-like robe walked in: "Stephen Strange."

"Steve Rogers."

After shaking hands, Captain America couldn't suppress his confusion, because he had just heard a term that shouldn't exist in this era: "Wizard?"

"Yes, I was taught by the Ancient One... the sorcerer who rescued you from Asgard."

Recalling the past, Doctor Strange's face showed a pained expression: "She was killed by a man who was extremely evil, yet extremely terrifying."

"You mean..."

"That's right, it's 'Qionghua'."

Captain America somewhat understood why Nick Fury had sent Doctor Strange here, but he still couldn't quite grasp it, so he remained silent, waiting for an explanation.

Before long, Captain America learned the whole story.

The Ancient One was the guardian of Earth and protector of the United States and the Avengers. However, when she rescued them from Asgard, she was discovered and brutally killed by the evil and terrifying being on the "Junghua". Doctor Strange, as her disciple, inherited the title of Sorcerer Supreme and the responsibility of protecting this world.

"I have a duty to defeat this evil and terrifying being, so I hope to join you."

"But with our strength, we may not be able to defeat him."

"That's why I brought this."

He took out the green gem from his pocket: "The Eye of Almotho, an eye that can see everything in the past and the future."

P.S.: Updates resumed~

Marvel Universe: Chapter 876 The Time Stone

"The Eye of Almotho, this gem allows the user to travel to any point in time, whether it is the distant past or the far future. Using this power, one can see or experience any era."

The olive-colored gemstone emits a faint glow, and anyone can see its extraordinary nature at first glance. The eye-shaped gemstone seems to hold countless secrets waiting to be discovered, making people want to immerse themselves in it almost the instant they see it...

"team leader?"

"—!"

Steve Rogers instinctively took two steps back, and after noticing the gaze in front of him, he breathed a sigh of relief: "I can feel its power; it truly has the ability to immerse one in it."

"This is a gem I obtained by chance."

With that, Doctor Strange carefully retrieved it again: "The best way to deal with this dangerous power would have been to seal it away forever, but the enemy we are facing now is far too evil and powerful. I really can't find any other way to defeat it except by using the power of the Eye of Almotho."

Captain America nodded upon hearing this, but still harbored considerable doubts: "But the power of the Eye of Almotho is meant to allow people to see the past and future, so what does it have to do with combat?"

“We can see what it is and what its weaknesses are by looking at the ‘past,’ and then find a way to defeat it in the ‘future.’ That’s the right way to use the Eye of Almodo.”

……

Stark Industries Building.

After reaching the top floor without any obstacles, they encountered an unexpected obstacle at the end.

"Hey, I don't want to be killed as a 'demon' at any time."

When Captain America and his group arrived, Tony Stark—the Iron Man who had survived the entire Chitauri invasion after being hit directly by the Mind Stone—made no attempt to hide his resistance: "You can do whatever you want, as long as it doesn't affect me."

"Tony, it's not what you think."

"Jarvis, see the guest out."

Just as the meeting was about to end badly, Captain America suddenly spoke up: "We're not here to bring you back to the Avengers."

"team leader?"

Stopping Hawkeye from speaking, Captain America said loudly, "I'm just here to take you to see a movie."

Sure enough, the sudden topic piqued Tony Stark's interest: "Believe me, this place is definitely more suitable for watching movies than anywhere else."

"Of course, I don't doubt Stark Industries' technology and resources, but all you can see here are 'present' and 'past' films."

As he spoke, Captain America held up the box containing the Eye of Almodo: "And we will see the 'future'."

Twenty minutes later.

Stark Industries Building, top floor.

"So, you're planning to watch a movie from the 'future' right here, using a stone provided by a conman who calls himself a 'mage'?"

"This is Doctor Strange, the one who inherited the mantle of the Ancient One. The Ancient One saved us no matter what, so you should at least show some basic respect."

"I only respect science and reality."

That being said, after Jarvis reported the results of the test on the gem, Tony Stark restrained himself slightly. Subsequently, the revitalized Avengers, including Iron Man, Hawkeye, Black Widow, and Doctor Strange, heard the entire plan from Captain America.

"The first step is to use the Eye of Almoto to see his past. We will find out why he came to Earth. Of course, we cannot rule out that he was originally a human living on Earth. So what kind of human was he before? Through observation of the past, we can find out his origin and weaknesses."

Tony Stark whistled: "This is what you call a 'movie'?"

"It's much more interesting than a regular 'movie,' isn't it?"

"Okay, I accept."

Organizing his words: "...The second step is that we will use the Eye of Almotho to see his future—according to Doctor Strange's understanding of the Eye of Almotho, the future it reflects will not remain unchanged, but will change accordingly because of our choices."

"Is it like I've decided to quit now?"

"Then Tony Stark will not exist in the future reflected by the Eye of Almotho."

"Simple and straightforward, I like that."

After confirming with the four superheroes that there was nothing else to add, Captain America placed the Infinity Stone on the central table and removed the shield from his back. Although Doctor Strange's experience with the stone meant that observing the past wouldn't pose any danger, he was still fully prepared due to a premonition.

Once everything is ready.

"Let's begin, let's see what kind of past our enemy has..."

The light before their eyes suddenly became exaggerated, instantly engulfing the five people present.

Meanwhile, in the Himalayas, at the summit of Mount Everest.

Qionghua Main Hall.
