Shadow of the Beautiful World

The Chitauri and the Kree fought together in the sea of ​​stars on the edge of the solar system. In the unstoppable chaos after the war advanced, the fighting area between the two sides continued to expand, and even spread to the vicinity of Saturn's star rings. watermark ad test watermark ad test

The Kree occupy the power of the terrain, play defensive counterattacks, and their firepower, tactics, and discipline are much better than the Chitauri who make a living by plundering the stars.

But on the other hand, the Chitauri also have their advantages.

They firmly held the numerical advantage, and caught the Kree by surprise at first.

Obtained orders from the mad titan Thanos, responsible for monitoring Loki, and the son of Thanos who directed the Chitauri to invade the earth, the counselor of the dark order, and the cunning commander Ebony Maw Seeing that the chaos could not be calmed down, he commanded The Chitauri forcibly divided the battlefield with horrific casualties.

This guy with countless dark schemes in his mind completely gave up his plan to form an alliance with the Cree to attack the Earth after several unsuccessful attempts to communicate with Ronan.

Ebony Maw was unwilling to commit the Chitauri fleet to this pointless war.

He originally planned to sacrifice some of the predators and temporarily leave the solar system with the large fleet, but a little accident happened during the evacuation.

A group of Chitauri cruising on the battlefield accidentally discovered the idled Dark Star, so they made a tentative attack, and their attack went very smoothly, breaking into the nearly half-destroyed Dark Star all the way.

boom

On the edge of the chaotic interstellar battlefield, dazzling flames erupted from the inside of the dark star's torn deck.

Like a group of unobtrusive fireworks.

But it does represent a dire message.

Ronan is dead!

A sad news sounded from the command platform of every battleship in the Kree fleet. In the swaying blur, the Inhumans and Kree warriors were fighting the Chitauri who rushed into the Dark Star.

Ronan the Supreme Accuser is behind the back of Scola the Stalker, his most trusted lieutenant, and the group is struggling to retreat under the siege of the barbaric Chitauri.

Ronan had lost his breath.

The Supreme Accuser of the Kree was still armed until the last moment, covered in the blue blood of the Chitauri Marauder, grim-faced, with the stance of a warrior at the moment of his death.

But he died.

A third of the body had been blown apart by grenades from the savage Chitauri Marauders.

He was unfortunately killed in a despicable attack by the Chitauri after he was already badly wounded.

revenge!

Knowing the news, Black Bolt angrily destroyed the Chitauri line with a sonic roar, opening a gap for a besieged Kree fleet.

But this cannot change the worsening situation now.

Ronan's body was sent back to the fleet ten minutes later by the allied aliens and his last group of Kree guards.

Looking at Ronan's mutilated body, the captains of Kerry who were in charge temporarily were ashamed.

The identity of the corpse was quickly confirmed to be the real Ronan.

Now, regardless of the truth of the previous chaos, regardless of the truth of this assassination, no matter what these Kerry captains are thinking, the Kerry soldiers who have really lost their commander must fight with Zita. The Swiss fought to the end.

This confused account is no longer clear.

If the Chitauri cannot be defeated here, and the shame of failure can be washed away with the blood of the enemy, then even if these Kree soldiers return to the empire, they will be deprived of all their rights due to the death of the supreme commander, the supreme accuser Ronan. glory.

What's more, the Kerry people who have been attacked one after another are still simmering in their hearts.

They urgently need to find an opponent to fight.

Kill them all! Avenge Ronan!

A moment later, a murderous order was issued to all the Kree starships that are still in combat, which means that the Kree people here have no way out.

They can only move forward desperately.

Either overthrow the opponent, or die in this battle.

There will be no third outcome.

The flames of war burned more and more loudly, and all the lives here turned into beasts shaped by war, fighting bloodthirstyly in a cage of stars.

The starship roared, and the destruction roared.

Soldiers have stepped into the battlefield, where only death is the end of cruel duty.

No one pays attention to things other than the battle, and no one pays attention to the shuttle fleet that quickly left the battlefield while taking advantage of the chaos.

The heroes of the earth took several Kerry shuttles, and with the cooperation of Magneto and Professor Charles, they rushed all the way towards the earth.

Their duties and responsibilities here, as well as their mission, have come to an end.

Astonishing as the consequences of the chain reaction are, it has nothing to do with the weary heroes.

They should go home.

———————————

Earth, New York, Queens, the rooftop of Aunt May's apartment.

Merlin was wearing a suit and trench coat standing on the edge of the roof. At the collar of his shirt, there was a black scarf hanging down on both sides of his chest. This gift woven by Elsa herself added a touch of gentleness to Lord Raven. .

After all, it was a gift from my wife.

Holding the changing cane of the Winter Box, he looked at the blue sky and white clouds above his head. Today, for ordinary people on the earth, it is just an ordinary day.

But it's not ordinary.

Many things happened today, the total extinction of the Skrulls, the destruction of the Kree fleet, the beginning and end of another story of heroes, conspiracy, betrayal and salvation, etc.

Too much happened today.

Beside Raven, Peter Parker, who had changed his clothes, stayed beside his uncle in a half-squatting posture.

The 13-year-old boy is like a juggler, maintaining a precise balance on the edge of the roof, and shaking his body wantonly, as if to show off his sense of balance far beyond ordinary people.

Peter was still a little nervous in his heart, he was ready to be reprimanded or even taught by his uncle.

After all, he did hide some very important things.

But to Little Peter's surprise, Merlin brought him to the rooftop, but he didn't take the initiative to ask about what happened to him.

On the contrary, Uncle has remained silent.

He seemed to be waiting for something to happen.

Peter didn't know, and he didn't dare to ask, like a brat who had done something wrong, he could only keep his mouth shut and wait for the judgment from his parents to come.

That fleet is approaching Earth.

The gentle voice of the glasses girl echoed in Merlin's heart. The omnics of the Mechanicus are currently taking over the M.I.B's star field space monitoring system, and they have easily discovered a huge fleet that is marching towards the earth.

Not Kree!

Rather, there are aliens with even weirder and more indescribable appearances. There are huge fish-shaped warships and a large number of small warships.

The visitor was not kind, and refused to communicate with m.i.b. He was very aggressive, and obviously he did not come with good intentions.

There are records of this kind of aliens in the m.i.b database. They are called Chitauri.

The glasses girl reported to Lord Raven:

According to Rocket Raccoon's previous statement, these Chitauri once fought with the Kree on the edge of the galaxy. They are Thanos' servants, a group of predators who came from outside the galaxy.

A servant of Thanos?

Merlin looked at the sky, his eyes passed through the clouds, and looked at the endless sea of ​​stars, his vision continued to extend and spread, and after a few seconds, he saw it.

That fleet rolled over like a turbid current.

I guess they're here for the gems. Thanos, who has never seen his face, is really impatient...

Raven raised his left hand, and amidst the orange light, a purple power gem was suspended at his fingertips, and that strange thing immediately attracted the attention of Peter at his feet.

The spider boy stared curiously at the brilliant light in his uncle's hand, as if he was wondering what it was.

Peter, I never wanted you to go down this road.

Merlin's fingers touched the Stone of Power, and purple sparks splashed at his fingertips. He said to his nephew in a gentle tone:

It's not because my desire to protect is too strong, or because I insist on planning a safe future for you. I just don't want you to bear more pressure that belongs to heroes.

I hope you can be yourself, rather than being coerced by the hero's duty to embark on a dark path full of thorns.

But I'm just being myself.

Peter stood up with a beautiful backflip, stood beside his uncle, and said to his uncle:

I want to be a hero. I have thought since I was a child. I am very happy when I get the ability. I can finally realize my long-cherished wish...

No, not this.

Merlin shook his head regretfully.

Peter was still too young to understand what Merlin was trying to express.

Lord Raven sighed, and said:

Forget it, let's talk about this later.

Since you are no longer an ordinary person, you have entered this world, today I will teach you some of the most basic rules...power, never be fooled by power.

Because the pursuit of power is endless, once you devote yourself to it, you will inevitably ignore the more precious things around you.

You will become more and more able to fight, but at the same time you will become more and more stupid, more and more arrogant, and eventually die on that endless road.

Merlin glanced at the ignorant Peter, and he emphasized his tone:

I've seen too many examples like that. But you haven't seen it yet, so I'll let you see the tragic end of those fanatics who blindly chase power...

Lord Raven raised his head and looked towards the sky, he said to the glasses girl:

Don't stop those intruders, temporarily close the A-net protection system outside the earth, and let them enter this world at a faster speed.

Their power to go after gems so stupidly...well, they'll see for themselves soon.

On the other side, at the core of the Chitauri vanguard fleet, a warship command podium very similar to the wheel-shaped spaceship that Loki and Ebony Maw rode on.

A huge figure, more than 3 meters tall, wearing strange armor, body covered with black scales and horny, and a ferocious guy with a face like a beast, was staring at the shining energy logo in front of the podium.

That special power sign...can't be wrong!

That is the unique power emanating from the Infinity Stones!

It is on the earth, on the edge of that continent, and without any shelter, it is just exposed to the eyes of the predators under the command of Thanos.

Roar!

The brutal commander grabbed the heavy metal hammer at hand, and it roared at the Chitauri beside him.

Soon, the fleet cruising in space changed its direction and rushed towards New York from space.

This commander is called Black Dwarf.

He is the same son of Thanos as Ebony Maw, a member of the Dark Order, and the last orphan of a special race in the galaxy. He was adopted by Thanos since he was a child, and he is the most loyal war pioneer under the command of Mad Titan.

It is brute, and its heart is as savage as its appearance, like a raging beast, chasing war and destruction, and enjoying the feeling.

It was ordered to come to Earth with Ebony Maw and Loki to collect three infinite gems on Earth for Thanos.

While Ebony Maw was leading the large Chitauri fleet to join Ronan the Kree, it also brought the vanguard fleet to Earth first, intending to carry out the first wave of invasion.

But now, there is no need to use war to force the earthlings to hand over the gems!

Because the gem is right in front of you!

boom

Led by the black wheel-shaped spaceship mixed with flames, the Chitauri fleet broke through the earth's atmosphere and clouds like a wave of destruction from the sky.

Into the unprepared world, amidst the yelling and howling of the marauders.

In the city below, there is a surge of purple light.

That's what they are for!

gem!

right there!

Uncle! Here they come!

Peter looked at the sky, and he saw with his own eyes the terrifying army coming from all over the world.

Those terrifying starships shining with metallic luster like big fish in the deep sea, and those densely packed ones constantly pouring out of the starships, riding on motorcycle-type plundering ships, their bodies twisted like wild beasts, wearing armor and holding weapons Galaxy Predators.

There is also a weapon with a huge and heavy black cone like a pyramid shot out of the huge, wheel-like spaceship.

They come with a will to destroy, and beneath them, New York City, undefended.

This scene made Peter's hair stand on end. Fear and worry shone in his eyes, as well as a hint of bewilderment.

He was just a new little hero on this trip, and the battle with Queen Skrull just now was already the highest-level battle scene he had ever experienced, and the scene of almost annihilation in front of him made Peter tremble uncontrollably.

Destroyers who blotted out the sun...

Is this scary?

Merlin glanced at the little nephew beside him, he chuckled lightly, and said:

Didn't you just swear that you would be a hero? Is that what you call courage?

I... I'm not afraid!

Peter felt that he was underestimated, he tried his best to straighten his body, gritted his teeth and said:

I'm just, just worried about the innocent, I can't save everyone by myself.

Don't worry, silly boy, I don't need you to save me today.

Merlin held the winter cane in his hand, and he took a step forward, hovering in the air outside the rooftop.

As Merlin waved his fingers, the space around him felt fragmented, like shattered glass.

In the crack rotation of the space turning like a crystal, a super-wide-scale dimensional mirror burst out from the feet of the raven.

It was like a gust of wind passing by the city, and the light of the dimensional mirror was shining, and its speed was extremely fast. In less than a second, this large-scale space magic enveloped the entire New York City.

The ground, the city, the sky, and even the invaders, as well as the weapons thrown into the city, and the black pointed cone-shaped impact towers that fell from the sky were completely covered.

At this moment, the whole world seemed to be quiet.

But maybe it became noisier, like a cage dropped from the sky, enclosing the intruder and the owner of the place.

Lord Raven looked back at his nephew who had a big mouth. He stretched out his hand to little Peter, and he said:

They can't hurt anyone but themselves.

Now, in this battlefield, only me, you, and the enemy are left...Peter, come, let me teach you the first lesson of a hero.
