If it were not for these videos revealing the future, he might still be struggling in confusion.
Now, he had not only caught a glimpse of the outcome in which he and the Hulk would eventually merge, but had also gained a deeply moving memory of love.
At the thought of this, a warm smile unconsciously appeared at the corners of his mouth.
To him, five years of his lifespan were far less valuable than these revelations.
Nick Fury stood up at the right moment, his single eye sweeping across everyone present.
“Now that the tip has been completed, it’s time to focus on the future.
“Everyone here already knows about the crises we are going to face, and each of you is a key member of the Avengers Initiative.”
His voice was steady and powerful, and the atmosphere in the meeting room instantly became tense.
By piecing together the clues from the two videos, they had managed to outline a fairly clear picture of the threat, despite the scattered information.
At this moment, everyone’s eyes were focused on Fury, waiting for him to lay out the next steps.
Everyone’s expressions became extremely serious.
At this moment, the Avengers Initiative was officially established.
Nick Fury spoke in a low and resolute voice.
“Our primary target is that purple figure who appeared in the video.”
He projected the footage onto the large screen, and everyone clearly saw the figure.
As Nick Fury manipulated the display, the image gradually zoomed in, focusing on the purple figure’s right hand.
Two dazzling stones appeared clearly before everyone’s eyes.
Meanwhile, inside the grand hall of Asgard, silence reigned.
Thor stood up from the ground.
Today was supposed to be the important day of his coronation, but the scenes in the video had left him feeling deeply humiliated.
He had watched helplessly as his own people died before his eyes.
His voice trembled as he asked, “Father, are we really going to let Asgard be destroyed like this?”
His words struck heavily at everyone’s hearts, while anger and unwillingness spread throughout the hall.
Odin, however, remained unusually calm.
He slowly exhaled and spoke in a deep voice.
“Actually, I foresaw the end of Asgard long ago.
“It is what is known as Ragnarok.”
His words caused the entire hall to erupt.
Crying and wailing instantly filled the great hall.
The people found it impossible to accept that their divine realm would meet such an end.
Just as despair enveloped everyone, Odin spoke again.
“Although Ragnarok is a destined fate, perhaps there is someone who can change everything.”
Those words reignited hope in everyone’s hearts.
Deep within the Marvel Universe, the people of Asgard were still immersed in a heavy atmosphere.
A creator named Leon Vance had attracted everyone’s attention and anticipation because he could foresee the future and distribute rewards through the Dimensional Platform.
Many people began to believe that perhaps this mysterious figure really could change the fate that awaited them.
Thor stood among the crowd, his voice booming like thunder as he declared loudly, “Father, believe in me!
In the name of Thor, the God of Thunder, I will definitely make the list!
When that time comes, I will use power that defies the heavens to ensure that Asgard exists forever!”
This declaration greatly encouraged the people present.
They all became confident in Thor, firmly believing that he would fulfill his promise.
Loki, however, stood to the side with a confused expression.
He noticed that on the Asgardian spacecraft filled with corpses, a knife belonging to him seemed to have quietly appeared.
Yet no one noticed this detail.
Meanwhile, in the real world, Leon Vance had just finished editing the video for the eighth superhero.
He stretched lazily, feeling energized.
Ever since he discovered that the tips from the Dimensional Platform were genuinely effective, he had thrown himself into his work with renewed enthusiasm.
Although he had no idea how the various factions throughout the Marvel Universe had reacted, he was certain that his videos had already caused a tremendous sensation.
At that moment, the Dimensional Platform’s notification sounded.
“Congratulations, user ‘Leon Vance,’ on receiving the Hulk’s tip: Hulk Serum!
“After being enhanced by the platform, an injection will grant you the Hulk’s strength without causing you to lose control.”
A beam of light flashed, and a small syringe appeared in front of Leon Vance.
He resisted the urge to test it immediately.
Worried that the power might be too strong and cause an accident, he decided to test it later.
Filled with anticipation, Leon Vance uploaded the completed video of the eighth superhero to the platform.
He deliberately delayed its release by two hours to maximize the audience’s anticipation.
“What is this?!”
Captain America stared at the screen and growled in disbelief.
Inside the S.H.I.E.L.D.
command center, Tony Stark, Bruce Banner, Peter Parker, and Natasha Romanoff simultaneously held their breath.
The two dazzling stones on Thanos’s gauntlet were emitting unsettling fluctuations of energy.
Nick Fury narrowed his single eye slightly and brought up a holographic file.
“According to the analysis of the interdimensional intelligence network, this Titan is carrying out a cosmic-scale purge known as the ‘Balance Plan.'”
He pointed toward the blue stone.
“The Space Stone is currently on Earth, while the other, purple Stone is the Power Stone.”
“You mean the cube that sank into the Arctic Ocean with me?”
Steve Rogers suddenly clenched his fists.
Memories from seventy years ago, frozen along with his body, suddenly awakened.
The image of the Red Skull disappearing into the blue radiance was still vivid in his mind.
“Exactly.
The Tesseract.”
Fury switched the surveillance display.
“But what’s even more troublesome is that Loki will infiltrate S.H.I.E.L.D.
with the scepter…”
Several red dots were moving toward the laboratory on the electronic map.
Tony suddenly struck the keyboard and brought up an energy spectrum.
“Wait.
There is quantum entanglement between these two stones!”
Natasha suddenly drew her gun and aimed it at the ventilation duct.
“Looks like our little reindeer prince can’t wait to collect his package.”
“According to S.H.I.E.L.D.’s analysis, the large-scale conflict that’s about to occur was most likely orchestrated by him.
“As for what could possibly attract him to Earth, I don’t think there’s anything more tempting than this blue cube…”
Everyone drew in a sharp breath upon hearing this, deeply impressed by S.H.I.E.L.D.’s precise deduction.
With that, the entire situation became much clearer.
Although many mysteries remained unsolved, everyone now realized that in the near future, the so-called “weak god” would lead an extraterrestrial force in an invasion of Earth.
His target would be that cube radiating a faint blue glow.
Captain America remained calm.
After a day of adapting, he had gradually caught up with the fast pace of modern society and had also learned that numerous extraterrestrial civilizations existed throughout the universe.
As a natural-born leader, he remained completely composed and asked directly, “Then how should we respond?”
Tony quickly pointed out the key issue.
“The most important thing right now is establishing contact with Asgard.”
But the little Spider-Man immediately reminded him, “Mr.
Stark, the Dimensional Platform can only observe other people.
It can’t send messages like a social media app.
“It’ll be very difficult for us to contact them through it, let alone ask them to hand that so-called “weak god” over to us.
“Besides, would the gods be willing to hand one of their own over to humans?”
Tony was left speechless for a moment.
Nick Fury nodded in agreement with Spider-Man’s point, confirming that directly contacting Asgard was not a viable option.
“From now on, you must follow the arrangements.”
Nick Fury’s tone was decisive.
“Captain America and Spider-Man, adapt to your new environment as quickly as possible while remaining on standby.
“Stark, your task is to complete the development of the large-scale armor as soon as possible and provide Earth with a crucial addition to its defenses.
“As for Natasha and Banner, during this period, help control your emotional fluctuations and become proficient in using the talismans.”
