Chapter 1089 It's London Again
Chapter 1089 It's London Again
"I don't like it here." Thor stroked his blonde hair.The weather here reminded him of Svaralheim, just as gloomy.
Kai doesn't like it here either. To be honest, the weather here is far worse than in ancient times.God knows how the world became like this.
Afterwards, everyone stopped a taxi and rushed to Jane Foster's residence. After returning to London, no, after returning to Earth, Jane Foster's physical condition improved a lot, even Without Kay's help, she was able to walk normally.
But Kai could sense that this girl...wouldn't live long.The effect of the keel extract dissipated quickly in this girl's body!
Goosebumps appeared all over Random Kai's body, don't forget, he still has half of the ether particles in his body!
Kai was so frightened that he checked his body immediately.Relieved, it's okay, it's okay.Ether particles are very honest. Kay is different from Jane. Jane does not know how to use power at all, so she always activates ether particles subconsciously, but Kay is different. He knows how to use power cautiously. As long as he does not trigger ether particles, it will not Randomly draw Kai's vitality.Of course, this does not mean that Kay can sit back and relax. After all, if this is the case, Malekith would not have kept the ether particles outside his body for safekeeping. If Malekith had let the ether particles reside in his body anytime and anywhere , Bulli has no chance to execute the beheading plan.
Soon they came to Jane's temporary residence.
Pushing the door open, Daisy Louise, who was eating dinner alone, couldn't help but yelled when she saw Jane Foster: "Jane, you've come back. Where have you gone? You can't do this, leave everything behind, the whole world is crazy, the vision we saw before, is now everywhere... Hey, Kai, you're back too? You... Yes Did you go to the party?"
Jane Foster is now in her Lady Asgardian costume, and while she's checking, Earth's clothing has been sterilized... well, burnt.Asgard is not a Tie Hanhan who really doesn't know anything, so he naturally knows what a virus is. Although Thor has visited several times and found no problems, what if?
So Jane could only change into Asgard's costume, which, I have to say, looks very exotic.
"Daisy, I need to call Eric." Jane Foster grabbed Daisy Louise's mobile phone on the table, and then dialed Professor Sagway's number without hesitation. How could she be in that mood to break up with Daisy here.
"Hey, Eric, are you busy? Okay, I need to meet you right away, I'll wait for you." After hanging up the phone, Jane Foster turned to look at Thor and Kay: "Eric Said he would come over right away, and he would be there in half an hour."
Kai nodded indifferently, then turned and walked aside, intending to let Tony come over. ,
……
Soon the agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and Professor Shavig came to Jane's house together.
"Malekis wants to launch ether at the place where the Nine Kingdoms converge, so that they can destroy the Nine Kingdoms in the shortest possible time, and then affect the entire universe!" Jane Foster pointed to the map on the table, trying to Look for the exact spot where the stars are converging on Earth, more precisely in London.
Dr. Shagwei on the side was also researching the same thing during this time, and gained something: "Not only that, but if my guess is right, the ether will be launched in the nine kingdoms at the same time, and the power of the ether will follow the connected kingdoms. The number will increase exponentially, and the speed of destruction will become faster and faster, and in the end, they will reach Asgard."
If you really want to use an intuitive concept of space to describe it, it is that when the stars of the nine kingdoms converge, all the kingdoms will form a straight line, and the earth is in the most central position, you can go up to Asgard , can also go down to Heim, the underworld, and the more a kingdom is destroyed, the more difficult it is for the ether particles to be stopped.
But it is not without good news. Thor followed up and said: "The time for the convergence of the stars of the Nine Kingdoms lasts for a short time, so Malekith must arrive at the right place within seconds."
"So where is the right time and place?" Daisy Louise knew that this question was the most critical.
Jiuxing Lianzhu only comes once every 6000 years, and the exact time of the last time of Jiuxing Lianju...no one knows.And as such a long time passes, the rotation time of the earth is also different.The Earth's rotation rate has been getting slower and slower over the years.
Although ordinary people can't feel it, 6000 years, a little bit of accumulation, is not a small number.
As for the location, it is even more difficult, and I have no clue at all.
The only thing they can be sure of is that this location is in London. The question is where is London?
S.H.I.E.L.D. immediately contacted astronomers and historians from all over the world, hoping that they would be able to calculate the specific time of Nine Stars as soon as possible!
As for the exact location...
To be honest, this is really difficult.
Who the hell has nothing to do with space fusion!
At this moment, Dr. Savage didn't know what he found, and slapped his thigh.
"Oh! I know!"
"what?"
"Follow history." Professor Sagway smiled confidently, then pulled out a map and opened it directly in front of everyone. At the same time, he held a triangular ruler and sketched on the map while explaining: "Thousands of years Convergence has happened before, the ancients witnessed it, those amazing ancient construction projects, the Mayans, the Chinese, the ancient Egyptians, all used the effect of the convergence on gravity. This is our map, Stonehenge, Snowdon , Cape Great Orme, you can find it with their coordinates...here."
Professor Sagway's calculation is very simple and crude. He just draws a few lines on the map, and the center point where these lines converge is naturally the most likely location.
Everyone looked at the center point on the map.
City of Westminster!
The City of Westminster, also known as the City of Westminster, is located on the west side of the City of London and on the north bank of the River Thames. It is a London municipality with city status under Greater London, England.The city of Westminster is the administrative center of the United Kingdom, and the Palace of Westminster, the British Parliament, is located in the city of Westminster.
There is no doubt that this place...is regarded as the political center of Britain!
"Well, the British are unlucky."
It seems that the second battle is destined to leave a strong mark in British history. If you are not careful, the British Empire will be over.
Naturally, it was impossible for SHIELD to allow such a thing to happen, and they immediately contacted SHIELD headquarters.Their level is not high enough, with the bureaucracy of the British, they will not talk to them, a branch wants to command the group of parliamentarians?
What are you thinking!
The bureaucracy of the British is enough to drive them crazy.
So they had to use the political influence of the S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters to make those officials pay attention.
……
Finally, Tony arrived in London the next morning, which also allowed Jarvis to calculate the exact time of the Nine Stars!Just this afternoon!
But just as Kay expected...the Brit didn't believe it at all.
Or, they thought it was a joke from S.H.I.E.L.D.
Of course, it is more likely that bureaucratic failure broke out.What's the meaning?
I don't want to take responsibility!
The British are simply a wonderful flower in the world in this respect.Someone interviewed a British member of parliament and asked him what 1+6 equals, but this guy was stunned for a long time without letting out a fart! (I read a report before, but I don’t know if it’s true or not. After all, in the Internet environment in the past, nonsense came out of my mouth, and no one knew whether it was true or not. Let’s take it as true here, because it’s really like what the British can do. things)
Is this person stupid?Of course, not to mention how smart he is to become an MP, but he is by no means stupid.Although the big baby is used to pulling the hips, it is not like this.
This guy just doesn't dare to take responsibility!
He thought there was some mystery behind the reporter's question.For example, 1+6 is not equal to 7, or what is a sensitive topic, just like LGBT, who knows what it is before this stuff goes viral?If you say the wrong thing and get distorted by the reporter, it's the end of the calf.Don't believe how smart that British guy is, it's too late to dispel rumors afterwards.
Although this product does not represent all British officials, it can represent a considerable part.
Evacuate the entire city of Westminster... To put it simply, who will pay for this responsibility?
Those who have the right dare not give orders.
Those who have no right to talk desperately.
Anyway, bragging is not against the law, they can say whatever they want.Now a bunch of British guys have started to stand in line, some support the evacuation, some oppose the evacuation, some think it is a conspiracy, and some are inexplicably confident that the big baby can carry it through.
In short, there are all kinds of messy people.
In the past two years, due to various reasons, the British economy has been very poor. After globalization, because of the global economic downturn and the problems of the European Union, a large number of foreigners have come to Daying to find jobs, resulting in many old workers Londoners are dissatisfied, thinking that outsiders have seized their job opportunities, and even those who have jobs think that the influx of a large number of foreigners will lead to a sharp drop in their income.
After all, most of those foreigners who are willing to go to the UK to find opportunities come from poor countries. Their salary expectations are much lower than those of the British natives, and they are more obedient.
In this way, capitalists are more willing to hire those foreigners.
British people can only be forced to lower wage expectations and welfare packages if they want to keep their jobs.
In this way, populism is rising much faster than Kai's previous life!
With these populists, it is natural for politicians to win votes with their stinky feet, so a large group of bewildered people went online.
These people may not have much ability to govern the country, and not only some people talk about it, but there are many people who shirk their responsibilities!
In short, the card owner!
Not only did the group fail to evacuate the crowd, but they started arguing instead.
Of course, this group of people did not take their lives seriously. After notifying the British side, these grandsons immediately adjourned the Congress.
Anyway, noisy and do not need to face to face.
But Thor and Tony, the two emperors, were not in a hurry for the eunuch.
"When is this? What are they doing?"
"Sure enough, politicians can't be trusted!"
Kay remained calm.
Although his hometown in this life is Great Britain, the problem is that he is not of the same species as them at all!
He is an ancient Celt, and his clan has all moved out of the earth long ago.He is the only ancient Celt in this world.
As for the current British... Hehe, that's far from it.Those are Anglo-Saxons, and they are all Danish and Nordic.Not related to Kay.What the hell was Kay giving them?
It's true that Kay doesn't want to see civilians being harmed.
But the problem is, it doesn't count if he said it!
Others' own officials are not in a hurry, what can he do?
This is why Kai has always paid attention to the relationship with the government. Sometimes, some things have to be done by these grandsons, and they don't even need their help, as long as they don't make trouble.Therefore, things that offend people are done by several clones.
He himself is the white lotus!
"You guys are shouting here, it's useless. If you have this skill, it's better to expose this matter, it's better than anything else!" Kai looked at the two thousand-year-old fools and only complained , I really can't see it.
What a big deal!
Is it difficult to deal with British officials?
If you don't deal with them, you'll be fine!
Direct like Batman, direct exposure.Whether to run or not depends on the people themselves.
This time, it is estimated that Karma Taj is not interested in helping.
At that time, how many people die... depends on luck.
He can only do so much, too.
In fact, to be honest, he can achieve the same effect by letting the King of Knights show up.
But the problem is, the characters of the King of Knights are set there.
He couldn't have come forward to warn.
Of course, Batman is also okay, but Batman has always been in North America, and suddenly ran to the UK...it's not suitable.
Thor and Tony looked at each other, then looked around awkwardly.
Then Tony went out and made a phone call.
In less than half an hour, an insider broke the news suddenly on the TV news!
At the same time, Thor and Tony made a special trip around Westminster and even London!
Now public opinion explodes!
Many people ran away obediently.
But there are also those who are not afraid of death.
Let’s not talk about these people. There is no shortage of such idiots in any country. They think that they are important, and that even if there is a problem, superheroes and the government will save them.
This is true, but don't think too much about it.
Superheroes and the government really have this ability, and the domestic demand market in the United States will not be so prosperous in the past two years.
Fewer people died?
I really don't know where their self-confidence comes from. They feel that if something happens, they can't be one of those unlucky farts?
Why is God your uncle?
The British government was very angry, thinking that this was the Americans interfering in their internal affairs... Hehe, it seems that the Americans interfered less.The wife of another diplomat hit and killed a 16-year-old boy, but she slapped her ass and left. The British not only watched, but even said harsh words so softly, as if she hadn't said anything.
The United States is naturally too lazy to care.
After all, this kind of thing is none of their business!
In the afternoon, a group of people came directly to Westminster City, and Jane Foster was holding a batch of specially customized instruments.While debugging, he quickly said: "The interaction between the gravity field and the weak points between the kingdoms can theoretically create a wormhole that connects two space-times. This is the Einstein Rosen Bridge theory."
Having said that, she paused for a moment, looked back at the Palace of Westminster behind her, and then continued: "Under normal circumstances, it is difficult to find such a complex gravitational field environment, and it is also difficult to find such a weak space. The environment of the barrier, so as long as you use a little force, you can open the space door, that is, the space wormhole, and these instruments will help us to accurately monitor it, as long as the enemy is close..."
