Shadow of the Beautiful World

New York is an amazing city.

There will always be a lot of strange stories happening here, and when those strange stories happen enough times, the people living in this city will naturally not be surprised.

But a full-blown alien invasion of a city is, well, really rare.

The moment the Chitauri fleet savagely rushed into the city, the entire city fell into a sluggish state.

Pedestrians walking on the road, social animals working in the office, winners in life enjoying life with beautiful girls at home, almost everyone in this city discovered this abnormal situation immediately.

Have no idea.

Those raging Chitauri fleets almost blotted out the sun, like a huge black cloud that suddenly appeared, just hanging at the end of the sky.

As long as the eyes are not blind, you can see clearly.

ah!

The first terrified scream sounded from the busiest square, like a spark falling into a powder keg, igniting the entire city in an instant.

Everyone is running, everyone is screaming.

They don't know where to run, but staying where they are is definitely the worst option.

The whole city is like a flock of sheep that has been severely whipped, stripped of order in an instant.

Fear is like fire, burning brightly.

Much to the delight of something furtive in the dark, a pair of longing eyes stretching from a dream, it smells a burst of fear.

It's like a ravenous junkie, sipping that overflowing dread while still craving more.

boom

As the fish-shaped starship of the Chitauri descended to a position nearly 500 meters above the ground, Black Dwarf, the son of Thanos, also activated the shipboard weapons on his own spaceship.

They were metal towers like black obelisks, each as tall as a pyramid.

Tens of thousands of tons, like hills falling from the sky, after breaking away from the battleship of the black dwarf, those things fell crazily towards the ground of New York City under the call of gravity.

Of course, the terrifying impact is only the most obvious attack method of this weapon.

Their fall shatters the city's contours and throws the city into chaos.

And the hundreds of thousands of modified Chitauri mad warriors hidden in those black obelisks will kill all the people in the city in a very short period of time like a black tide of destruction. every life.

The black dwarf on the bridge watched with satisfaction as the obelisks smashed to the ground.

Bloodthirsty hung in the black eyes of this bestial warrior, who seemed to have seen the bloody ruins of this loathsome city.

It loves that scene as much as it loves carnage.

weak...

Should not exist among these stars.

Run!

Among the screaming crowd, veteran taxi driver Dubender was coming out of Mick's Bistro holding a delicious sandwich.

The guy raised his head and saw the black obelisk that was smashing towards the block. It fell so fast that it even sparked a dazzling flame in the air.

Dupont reacted fairly quickly. He turned around and yelled at the old Stan, who was standing at the door of Mick's restaurant, on crutches and wearing a baseball cap:

Get out of the way! Old man! Get out of the way!

whispering sound

Old Stan, who was getting old, was very calm. The cool old man with sunglasses raised his head and glanced at the obelisk that fell down.

He probably didn't react for a while, the old man shrugged his shoulders, and said to Dupont who was running towards his taxi in an extremely embarrassing tone:

Don't make such a fuss, young man. Isn't it an alien spaceship? Haven't you seen an alien invasion before?

Seeing that the old man and his snack bar were about to be crushed to pieces by the falling obelisk, a ray of light like a galloping wind flew across the city, and in the blink of an eye, everything disappeared.

Vicious aliens in the sky.

Those warships that block the sky.

Those black obelisks that were about to destroy the city.

The sense of death welling up in my heart.

Everything is gone.

It was as if the turbulent waves of the raging sea suddenly calmed down at this moment, and the sun once again shone on the panicked city. Those who fled in a daze raised their heads and looked at the warm and beautiful sunset above their heads.

There was nothing there.

It was as if all the crises just now were just a dream.

Well

Old Stan blinked.

The old man with a big heart thought he was hallucinating. He took off his sunglasses, rubbed his eyes, and looked at the sunset sky above his head.

A few seconds later, as if he suddenly remembered something, he waved his cane ferociously, and said to Dupont who was also standing there dumbfounded:

Hey, bastard! Did you pay for the sandwich you just took?

And at the border of the dream, in the illusory shadow, Nightmare shook his head in disappointment.

It stared at the empty sky with a sinister gaze. It knew what was going on. The fear pervading the city was fading fast, but it wasn't full yet.

Raven...

Damn it!

————

boom

In the unfolded dimensional mirror image, the heavy obelisk slammed into the city like a meteorite, and its accompanying impact was like a violent earthquake erupting in a small area, easily destroying an entire block.

And in the heavy echo of mechanical rattles, those obelisks opened slowly like landing pods.

The monsters who had already waited impatiently, had been transformed, and only retained the bloodthirsty instinct of beasts rushed out howling, and rushed into the destroyed ruins.

They are ready to kill the Quartet and prepare for bloody chaos.

However...

The next moment, these guys fell into a daze.

They rushed out of the obelisk and poured into every corner of the ruins, raising their noses like twisted hounds, sniffing the air.

Nothing at all!

There is no scent of flesh, no sense of life.

There is only one city here.

An empty city.

High above the sky, on the podium of the giant black spaceship, the mighty black dwarf also fell into a momentary daze.

The life signals that were densely scattered in the city just now disappeared, and the millions of weak lives seemed to be sent out of this world in a second, leaving this empty city.

No!

wrong!

There are also life signals, and there are two more!

There are still two living guys left in this city, they are still staying together, and their location is exactly the location of the infinite gemstone emitting purple light.

Roar!

The brain of the black dwarf is not very good, and wisdom is not its weapon.

The warhammer in its hand was raised, and with a roar like a scolding, those Chitauri who had lost their target and hovered in the air like a swarm of bees got an order again.

The predators roared, and those fish-shaped spaceships flew close to the ground, wantonly destroying the city's buildings, as if they were a top demolition team.

They rushed towards where Merlin and Peter were.

He was so aggressive that he wanted to kill the two living beings that still existed.

They want this gem because it gives them the power to destroy everything.

In mid-air, Raven slowly leaned on his cane, holding the power gem, and said to Peter beside him:

They are the kind of idiots I told you, immersed in the delusion of chasing power and unable to extricate themselves, and can only drown in the hands of stronger people in the end.

like this!

Lord Raven flicked his fingers in front of his eyes.

The orange streamer turned into fine lightning bolts, filling every inch of Lord Raven's skin at this moment, and the metal onium that flowed in his blood and had already turned into a part of his body quickly gathered under the stimulation of the arc exerted by Vanity.

This substance that can distort gravity is squeezed, exerting the force of manipulating gravity on the raven, and under the control of the raven's will, it is like an invisible spider web covering the city, capturing all the existence in the web.

After being promoted to Heavenly Father, he has rarely used this ability.

And under Peter's gaze, those ferocious aliens rushing towards him and his uncle from all directions seemed to be thrown into a tumbling washing machine at this second.

It can be seen that they are trying their best to control their balance.

But under the influence of completely out-of-control gravity, they can't.

Go down!

Raven said softly, pressing down with five fingers.

boom

The gravitational force in the city that was strengthened nearly a hundred times in an instant screamed, pulling the aliens captured by the force field, as well as their already heavy battleships, and even the huge wheel-shaped spaceship in the sky in the sky.

The gravitational field pulled them, and they fell to the silent earth in a crazy posture.

It's like rain.

A sudden downpour.

Countless Chitauri rolled and smashed their small fighter planes to the ground, the heavy impact overloaded the engine, and in an instant, dense and small flames lit up in the shattered city.

It was like being in some kind of grand celebration.

And those huge fish-shaped warships fell to the ground like real meteorites under the terrifying acceleration of the distorted gravity.

Every spaceship that hits the ground easily destroys a block.

The continuous smashing made the ground of the whole city vibrate and undulate, as if it was a real earthquake.

And the staggered influence of the chaotic gravity manipulation without surprises formed a more terrifying gravity wave in the raven's wanton swaying malice, just like the tumbling tide set off by a giant in the sea, tearing the entire city apart at this moment .

Amidst the flying smoke and dust, bright flames erupted, and the scene was extremely shocking.

It was very much like Peter saw in those movies, where the whole city was attacked by a blanket missile attack.

And under the gaze of the spider boy, all the propellers of the black wheeled battleship started at this moment, and the blue flames pushed the shaking spaceship to hover in the air with difficulty.

It's like a stubborn black sun that doesn't want to fall.

Those propellers made an overwhelmed sound in the confrontation with gravity, and dangerous flames splashed under the wheel-shaped spaceship, which was shocking to watch, as if it would explode on the spot the next moment.

But it cannot resist the call of the earth...

Under Peter's gaze, the black spaceship persisted for a few seconds, and then the engines turned off one by one, just like those Chitauri who had been pressed to the ground, like a mountain, unable to move at all. same as people.

It fell.

It was like a dying monster falling from the sky. Before falling to the ground, it had already begun to disintegrate internally under the torn by chaotic gravity waves.

As for the black dwarf, this powerful alien warlord was unwilling to die just like that. Just before the wheel-shaped spaceship fell to the ground, it grabbed its warhammer and jumped out of the control room.

boom

The 3-meter-high giant fell into the ruins of a house in embarrassment. The wheeled spaceship smashed into the golden Trump Tower behind it, and the burst of flames completely submerged the luxurious building.

It's like a magma erupting, enveloping everything around it.

boom

The black dwarf was pressed to the ground by the uncontrolled gravity, it struggled crazily, every muscle in its body burst out with terrifying power, lifted it from the ground with difficulty, and half-kneeled in the ruins.

It raised its head and looked at the two figures in the sky in the distance.

It growled like a challenge.

Well, look, the warriors of Thanos... are really powerful.

Raven said softly:

It wants to stand up? Well, I'll help it stand up.

After finishing speaking, Merlin flipped his fingers over, palms facing up, and raised his palms upward amidst the surge of orange flames and electric arcs.

The frantic and out-of-control gravity suddenly changed its direction at this moment, the downward traction twisted and turned into an upward vector, and the world with hundreds of times the gravity seemed to have completely lost gravity.

So under the surprised gaze of the black dwarf, everything around it is floating in an extremely unscientific way.

Dozens of times the force of gravity has been redirected...

Those Chitauri who were crushed to vomit blood, those shattered wrecks of battleships, those fish-shaped troop carriers that had been torn apart, even the ruins around it, collapsed stones scattered everywhere in the city.

Behind it, in the burning, fragmented ruins of Trump Tower, only a small half of the black spaceship remained.

The whole city was howling, and the torn ground was torn from the earth, amidst the creepy tearing sound, and under the control of the raven, it quickly floated into the sky.

This scene is fantastic.

It's as if the whole world is no longer affected by gravity, and everything is suspended.

Buckle on the ground with a warhammer so that he would not be raised by the floating black dwarf, and saw a broken tall building hanging more than 100 meters above his head.

A touch of crisis rushed to my heart.

But before the black dwarf could make an effective defense, Lord Raven, who was hovering in mid-air, sneered.

He stretched out his hand and flicked a small stone flying in front of him. The palm he held up turned over again in the next moment, and then, as before, he separated his five fingers and pressed down.

boom

The upward vector was changed into downward gravity again, instantly strengthened to hundreds of times the force of gravity, and all objects that were suspended hundreds of meters in the air smashed down towards the ground at a faster speed.

It's like a giant swinging his palm down.

kuang

The entire dimensional mirror trembled at this moment.

It was like a city-sized warhammer hitting the ground fiercely.

All things are broken, all things perish.

Merlin shrugged and looked back at his stunned nephew behind him. He reached out and patted Peter on the head. He said:

Look at them, Peter, and engrave the fate of the losers in your mind, never to forget.

This is what happens to blind power-seekers... It wasn't me who killed them, but their stupidity and arrogance.

Peter pursed his lips, not knowing what to answer.

But he knew that his uncle brought him to see all this not just to show the power of the raven. He still doesn't understand it now, but he will understand it one day.

Go, find the leaders of those lunatics, and give them justice as a hero.

Merlin said to his nephew:

That will be the first loot on your hero's path.

After speaking, Raven took a step forward and disappeared before Peter's eyes. When he reappeared, he stood standing on a broken ground.

He looked at the son of Thanos who had his legs broken and was crawling out of the ruins miserably.

Raven stretched out his hand, and amidst the crisp sound of the sword, the sharp blade Judas fell into the palm of his hand.

Merlin with the sword took a few steps forward, and the ruins and gravel blocking the road were pushed away by invisible force, clearing a road free of blood and stains for the majesty.

He looked at the black dwarf staring at him and roaring endlessly, as if looking at a wild beast out of control. He tilted his head and looked at the loser calmly.

After a moment, he shook his head regretfully.

He said:

What does Thanos think of my place...

Infinity gems are such an important thing, he sent a bastard like you to get them?

It's really... so arrogant!
