Chapter 334 S: Glorious Event (Thirteen)

In the underground experimental base of SHIELD, a man with brown hair and green eyes came forward, shook hands with Schiller and said: "Long time no see, Schiller, I haven't heard from you since you left the University of California, I didn't expect that we would meet here."

"It's been a long time since we last met. After I transferred to Harvard, I thought you would leave the University of California soon, but I didn't expect that you would stay for so long. Bruce, how are you doing recently?" Schiller smiled and shook hands with Bruce Banner.

Schiller once taught at the University of California in this Marvel identity. At that time, he and Banner were colleagues, but Schiller left after a short time there, and Bruce Banner is still a professor at the University of California.

"Not bad, but after you left, I have to pay for every psychological consultation." Banner smiled and pushed his glasses.

There were actually more than two of them in the room. Stark was also standing next to them, but he was busy with his own things, and Schiller and Banner treated him as if he didn't exist.

After Schiller made way for Banner to walk into the lab, Banner glanced at Stark, rolled his eyes slightly, and then turned to the lab table.

Schiller walked to his side, looked back at Stark, and asked, "Are you two not on good terms?"

"You should ask, who would be on good terms with Stark? At the last global forum, he spoke eloquently for three and a half hours, devaluing existing physics theories..." Banner pushed his glasses again, and he did not lower his voice, so Stark heard it clearly.

Stark let out a short breath from his nose, took a pile of information, and strode out of the laboratory. Banner showed a puzzled expression, looked at his back and said: "What's wrong with this guy? In the past, he would rush up to argue with me for hours."

"People always have to grow up." Schiller shrugged, and he asked: "Did SHIELD find you? Who else did they find?"

"For the time being, there is only me. Originally, they have contacted Reed Richards, but his third phase of near-earth research has not been completed. It is still hanging in the sky. It is estimated that it will take at least half a month to come back."

Banner glanced at Schiller and asked him: "You are the first one among us to arrive. Do you know any inside information? SHIELD's move this time is very big , as if they want to bring all the physicists in the world here..."

"I didn't arrive earlier than you. I am now a psychological consultant for S.H.I.E.L.D. I can only tell you that this is indeed a big move. If I am not mistaken, someone is giving a speech at the World Security Council now..."

"In summary, the fact that humans are not alone in the universe has been confirmed, but unfortunately, what awaits us next is not a friendly third-class contact, but aliens with highly developed technology that humans can hardly imagine, and it is unclear whether they are enemies..."

In the center of the semicircular seats of the Security Council, Steve was standing on the podium. As he spoke, a picture of the Kree star battleship taken by Eddie was displayed behind him.

Eddie was able to become a well-known reporter because his basic skills were impeccable. This picture was taken very well. In the center and above the picture were incomparable huge star battleships, emitting a faint light in the vast universe, while at the bottom of the picture were very tiny cosmic agents, and on both sides of the picture were countless frigates. …

Although I don’t know how Eddie happened to capture the photo of the Kree’s only remaining frigates filling the screen, judging from this picture alone, this fleet doesn’t look like a defeated army that just fled in a panic, lost most of its frigates, and couldn’t even go home. Instead, it looks like a majestic army ready to invade other civilizations.

Steve also looked back at the picture. He silently praised Eddie’s professionalism in his heart and continued in a calm tone: "This is a developed civilization that is unimaginable to humans. Next, I will introduce the Kree and their planetary battleships to everyone..."

Nick was sitting in the audience. He saw that as Steve spoke, the faces of the council members became more and more solemn, until they turned pale. Even Pierce, who always managed his expression well and didn’t show his emotions, became very solemn, and almost wrote shock on his face.

As Steve just said, the World Security Council has long known about the existence of aliens and Asgard, but their imagination of aliens is still relatively limited. After all, for so many years, humans have been working behind closed doors, and they have no intuitive understanding of how far alien technology can develop. But now, the evidence is in front of them.

How advanced is a civilization that can transform a planet as big as the earth into a planetary battleship?

Before seeing the real evidence, no one could imagine it, but now they have seen it, not only have they seen it, they have also learned that the fleet of planetary battleships of this civilization is now parked at the edge of the Milky Way.

This is like the novice guide of some games, giving you a sword, asking you to kill a chicken, and telling you that you have learned all the ways to play this game, and now go to save the world. The player went out happily, facing a full-level ancient god with more than 180 hands...

Now, human civilization has not even opened a novice village, and the tutorial has not been completed, and the ultimate boss is already squatting at the door. No matter how strong your willpower is, you will panic.

After speaking for more than two hours according to the speech script, even Steve felt a little dry in the mouth and dizzy. He actually didn't quite understand the professional terms summarized by Stark, so most of the time he was memorizing and applying them mechanically, and he had to deal with all kinds of strange questions below. If he hadn't received professional training, he would have left by now.

When he walked from the podium to the backstage, he wiped the sweat from his forehead. He wanted to find Nick, but he saw that Nick was talking to a black-haired man in uniform. Steve knew that man. He was Zheng Xian, the director of the S.H.I.E. Bureau. Every time he came to the Security Council meeting, Nick always stayed with him.

Steve could guess what they were talking about, so he didn't plan to join the conversation, but walked through the backstage alone. At this moment, Pierce, with gray hair on his temples, stopped him. He walked up, shook hands with Steve and said, "Long time no see, Captain America, how are you doing recently?"

"No, just a little busy."

"Really? Are you busy with something related to alien invasion?"...

"That's not the case. Director Nick's superhero team plan is not going well. Although we have found a lot of people, we don't even have a decent base. I have to run around looking for a house..."

"In addition, logistics supply is also a problem. Problem, if we rely on SHIELD, Nick will have to worry about the next quarter's funding. "

Pierce is very familiar with this tone, he immediately held Steve's hand and said: "Superhero team plan? In fact, I like this plan very much. When Nick proposed the initial plan to me, I said I would strongly support him. "

"Captain, are you free later? I have made an appointment with several congressmen to play golf together. They and their families are all your fans. If they can meet the real person, they will be very happy. "

"Oh, don't be like this, Director Alexander, we all rely on these heroes hidden behind the scenes..."

"They will like to talk to you about this The topic is not yet known. Nick should wait for a while. Let's go first. "

Pierce and Steve walked quickly through the backstage. Nick and Zheng Xian sat at the coffee table by the window. Watching the two figures walking farther and farther away, Nick picked up the cup and said, "...then follow what we just agreed. As for the superficial things, we have to wait for official contact."

Zheng Xian raised his cup, clinked it with him and said, "That's it. If there are any changes during the official discussion, we will contact you at any time..."

As he said that, he got up and left. Nick took out his mobile phone and called Strange, asking him, "How are the wizards arranged? How many people can be mobilized? We The scientists have basically assembled and can start work at any time..."

"Listen, the plan has changed." Strange was walking down the stairs in front of the Kamar-Taj Hall, holding the phone and said, "Originally, we planned to find 20 wizards to open the portal separately, but Wang just told me that the great wizards of Kamar-Taj have developed a large portal..."

"Large portal? How big is it?"

"So far, if the power of all the wizards in Kamar-Taj is gathered, plus the power of the Earth's magic defense system, it can be opened to a size larger than the moon."

"So big?!" Nick said in surprise.

"Yes, I was also surprised, but Kamar-Taj is the magic holy land of the earth after all. Those who can become the great wizards here are all knowledgeable scholars. They are not inferior to human scientists, but their research direction is magic."

Strange sighed and said, "The story has to start from the Holy of Holies..."

Originally, as an ancient magic holy land, Kamar-Taj's magic technology has not changed for thousands of years, because this is the most practical and stable method of controlling magic explored by generations of wizards, and it is enough to protect the earth.

But recently, the times have developed too fast. First of all, the position of the Supreme Sorcerer has changed. The Ancient One now returns to Kamar-Taj less and less, and most of the things are presided over by Strange.

Although they are optimistic about Strange's potential, Strange's current magic level is really not flattering. Without the protection of the powerful Ancient One, these great wizards also have a sense of crisis. …

In addition, with the development of the Holy of Holies, there are more and more customers and more and more business. The wizards are almost rubbing sparks when rubbing the portal.

With the help of the hanging ring, it is easier for the temple guardians and the great wizards to open the portal, but it is more difficult for other wizards. The daily business volume is still very large. Kamar-Taj has changed from a magic holy land to a 996 holy land overnight. The wizards are all exhausted.

Demand always promotes the progress of productivity. During the period when the Sanctuary of the Holy was opened, the magic portal has gone through several generations of updates and has become more and more energy-efficient and stable.

But individual portals are not as useful as fixed large portals, so the great wizards of Kamar-Taj worked overtime to study large portals that can be fixed in the universe.

Originally, wizards need to be extremely careful when using their power, because the essence of Marvel magic is borrowing. Once they borrow too much and can't pay it back, they will be in big trouble.

But the previous incident of Gnar serving food caused Ancient One to show off a big meal to all the wizards of Kamar-Taj. In addition to everyone being full, there was still a lot of energy left, which was stored in the central hub of Kamar-Taj. The wizards used this energy to study better magic technology, and the effect was outstanding.

In addition to sufficient power, technical support from the demon god is also indispensable. Is there a problem with the way of using energy? Call Mephisto directly, the space is not stable enough? Call Mordo and ask him to ask Dormammu, the transmission process is unstable and easy to get stuck? Pull a crimson ribbon and ask Setorak...

While Stark was climbing the technology tree, Kamar-Taj was also busy lighting up magic skills, and both sides were moving at a fast pace, and even had a bit of a competitive spirit.
