chapter 0449 part 2
For this small group of people standing at the peak of Human Power in the Venue, it had been a long Time since they had experienced the feeling of being almost pointed at and cursed.
Many people's faces immediately showed embarrassment.
"Mr. Stark, we understand your feelings, but you must also understand the Responsibility we bear! Behind us are the Lives of seven billion people on the entire Earth. If we make one wrong decision, the entire Human Civilization will come to an end! We have to be cautious!"
Tony Stark took a deep breath and slowly exhaled. "Sorry, my emotions were too agitated. This is not just a Crisis for Earth, but a Crisis for the entire Universe. If Thanos succeeds, all Life in the entire Universe will turn to Ash!"
"Mr. Stark, do you know something? If Thanos succeeds, does that mean he came to the Solar System to find something?"
Tony Stark glanced at the Crowd in the Venue. The words of his Parallel Universe self flashed in his mind. He understood that when it came to Things like the Infinity Stones, some Things couldn't be said truthfully, as Interests could sway people.
If these people were to know the Use of the Infinity Stones, even if Thanos was driven away, the Human World would face endless Chaos.
"Thanos has created a Weapon that can instantly destroy all Life in the Universe. Some of its components are on Earth. His Purpose in coming here is to find these Things. Once he completes this Weapon, all Life in the entire Universe will turn to Ash in an instant!" Tony Stark said, half-truthfully. "One of the components is something everyone should know, the Cosmic Cube. That's one of them!" Tony Stark added.
The Cosmic Cube, this mysterious Gemstone, was no Secret to the High-level Staff of many Countries.
Moreover, not long ago, Loki directly used the Cosmic Cube to open a Portal to Earth, launching an attack deep within the Federation's territory.
If not for the Avengers turning the tide, the Federation might have lost New York, a major City.
Of course, on this point, some people secretly felt regret, such as The Great Emperor who was gesturing something to the Certain Country Leader.
After learning that the Chitauri were repelled, he had publicly mocked the Chitauri for being less reliable than the Brown Bears of Siberia, saying that at least brown bears hunting in a certain country never come back empty-handed.
Because of this incident, the Western Media launched a massive Public Opinion retaliation against this iron-fisted President, even implicitly accusing the Chitauri Invasion incident of possibly being a Conspiracy planned by people from a certain country.
Below the Venue, people gathered in small groups, engaging in heated discussions, even leaving Tony Stark stranded on the podium.
Tony Stark simply turned on his wireless headset, listening to the even more important Information coming through.
"Captain, how are things on your end?"
"S.H.I.E.L.D. has located Ulysses Klaue! Agent Natasha and Agent Barton have taken people there. After we catch this Meeting Gift, we'll head to Wakanda!"
"Thor! How many Reinforcements can Asgard give us?"
"Not many, five thousand Berserkers, but they are Elites!"
"Five thousand? We might be facing billions of enemies! Can't you tell your Father not to be so stingy!"
"Stingy? You should know that Asgard also bears the Responsibility of guarding the Nine Realms. Asgard's Military has to defend against the Frost Giants of Jotunheim and the Fire Demons of Muspelheim. These five thousand Berserkers were squeezed out of Asgard's teeth! Tony, you shouldn't talk like that when you don't know what it's like!"
"Hmm, you're right, my waist still hurts a bit. I suspect those female celebrities at Lake Heart Island Manor are part of Tang's Conspiracy. They want to ruin my Body, but they forgot that the great Stark relies on a smart Brain!"
"And your foul mouth!"
"Alright, you two stop messing around! Thor, do you think Diana can get Reinforcements from the Pantheon!"
"I don't have high hopes for her. And that's not just me saying it, Master Ancient One said it, and my Father agrees. That guy Zeus, with his Brain filled with lust, the only Thing he thinks about when he sees Diana is how to get her into bed. That short-sighted guy won't come to support us even if he knows Thanos's plan! There's a high chance he'll wait until we and Thanos are both heavily wounded, then lead those Gods over to pick up the pieces, turning Earth back into a Religious Civilization where Gods rule everything!"
"Everyone knows the Ability of the Time Stone. It looks like Diana will return empty-handed this Time. Don't place any hope on the Pantheon. Clark, how are things on your end?"
"There are many enemies! And more enemies are constantly arriving!" Superman stood on a branch of Yggdrasil, looking at the massive, Planet-sized Steel Camp formed by Warships. With his eyesight, he could even see through the Portholes of the enemy Warships, the Alien Soldiers who were preparing for battle intensively, and various Bio-War Beasts.
If Bruce Wayne hadn't told him not to act rashly, he would have already rushed into these Steel Camps to cause a ruckus.
"Tony, how are things on your end?"
Tony Stark heard the familiar Voice in his ear. The subtle feeling of calling himself made him pause for two seconds.
He reacted after confirming that the Microphone in front of him was off, then quietly said, "They're still discussing. The situation is very bad. Someone in the Venue even suggested Surrender!"
"That's normal. During the WWII Period, they suggested Surrender more than once when facing Red Skull's offensive! I'm used to it!" The Captain's Voice sounded in the Communication Channel.
"Even if all the Military forces of the entire Human World were combined, it would be difficult to resist Thanos's Military force! Unless we have Reinforcements or Plan C succeeds!"
"But according to reliable Intelligence, the Power Stone and Soul Stone have fallen into Thanos's hands. It's hard to gather all five Infinity Stones. Even if we could use the Quantum Tunnel to travel back to the past, we couldn't change the predetermined Reality!"
"Captain! I'm sorry to tell you, I tried. Theoretically, we can indeed travel to different Timelines in this Universe, but something unknown seems to have mutated within the Quantum Tunnel. We can only exist in one Space-Time of one Universe; we can't go back to the past!"
"Are we only left with seeking aid from "He"? Thanos is a Bastard, but "He" might not be a good person either!"
"Excuse me, who is this "He" you're talking about?"
Tony Stark listened to the arguing and discussion in the Communication Channel and asked curiously.
"A Bastard just like Thanos!" The Tony in the Communication Channel said irritably.
""He" since exists, then "God" should also be real, right? Why don't we seek help from the "God" of this World!"
"When the Followers are in trouble, will the "Lord" we believe in just stand by and watch? After all, Thanos's Finger Snap doesn't distinguish whether you are a God!"
"I think Agent Natasha's suggestion is good. Why don't we go to a Church and try!"
"Absolutely don't go!" Thor's Voice sounded in the Communication Channel. "God might be different from what you imagine. Heaven is not the same Dimension as us. Strictly speaking, "He" is also a God that we Asgard and your Earth Sorcerers expelled from the Reality Dimension!"
"Why? Is it because you Asgard were fighting over Territory with them?"
"The reason Master Ancient One expelled many Divine Pantheons back then was because these Gods not only started god wars everywhere on Earth, affecting the lives of half the Earth's creatures, but they also raised Humans like Lambs! You should know about the Papal States in the Middle Ages, Tony. In that Environment, what do you think your proud Wisdom could bring you? Heh heh, I'll tell you, the Pyre. You would be sent to the Pyre like a Witch in the Middle Ages!"
"What about you Asgard?"
"We Aesir have our own dwelling place and have no intention of raising Earth Humans like sheep. This might be the reason Master Ancient One reached a Cooperation with us Asgard. Earth is Nominally subservient to us Asgard, and we Aesir also bear the Responsibility of protecting Earth. Just like when the Frost Giants invaded Earth back then, it was we Aesir who repelled them!"
