[Comprehensive] Road to Trench

The blackness in front of her eyes disappeared after a moment of calm, and Alex opened her eyes as if nothing had happened, as if she just took a short nap just now: "Jarvis, are you free now?"

The elegant voice of artificial intelligence sounded in the room: "Please believe that coordinating armor and assisting surveys are not enough to take up all my performance."

The rumble of guns and artillery outside never stopped, and there were thunder and lightning from time to time. The number of Chitauri above the head was far greater than that of the Avengers, not to mention that there was an alien monster whose body was so huge that it could be compared with an aircraft carrier. .

Alex drove the wheelchair to the floor-to-ceiling windows, looking at the smoky scenery outside the window, as well as the eye-catching Leviathan creature that looked like a certain armored shrimp.

"In fact, I always thought it should be very suitable for making Thirteen Fragrant Crayfish. After all, it looks so similar, doesn't it? And there are so many shells, but not much meat..." Alex said to himself, Through the pictures displayed by the cameras connected by Jarvis, the parties who are at war at this time can be seen in a panoramic view.

It’s just a small team—although the number of people seems large, but Alex can guarantee that he has assisted Thanos in managing the planet Gamora for more than 20 years. .

That Mr. Cthulhu, who seems to be going out as an idol, shouldn't be so naive as to think that such a small team can help him rule the earth, right?

In other words...

The army is still behind.

As for why there is a Chitauri army in Loki's hands, this question is really too simple...

——That asteroid base doesn't seem to satisfy Mr. Ebony Throat's appetite.

The physical condition is very bad, and I can no longer use magic (otherwise it will not only be solved by sleeping for a while), but the current earth does not have the ability to cope with the Chitauri army. rush to...

If Loki summons the rest of the army...

Gee.

Alex lowered his eyes, and his long and thin eyelashes covered the turmoil in his blue-purple cornflower eyes.

After a while.

Jarvis's hesitant voice sounded: "Miss, although Loki is no longer in the Stark Building, it is very dangerous outside now, it is safer for you to stay in the room..."

Not long ago, Loki's adoptive brother arrived, and after a fight, the evil god, who was no match for Thor, seized the opportunity to roll over and roll down the terrace, and escaped on the Chitauri small flying machine that happened to pass by.

But the evil god who was eager to escape from his brother left something behind.

The wheelchair ran over the broken glass scattered on the ground, and the little girl with silver curly hair bent down to pick up the scepter that fell on the terrace.

"Don't worry, all this will be over soon." After looking at the gem inlaid on the scepter for a while, Alex drove the wheelchair again and came to the machine that was opening the wormhole, "Well, If you are free now, Jarvis, help me check the real-time news that you can access, and please relay the original report to me."

Jarvis didn't understand why he wanted to watch the news at this time, but the order he received was to "meet all Alex's requirements", so he called up the current affairs news she needed without any objection.

A small piece of light screen was projected above the armrest on the right side of the wheelchair, and it was divided into several pieces to show the news media that was reporting the news of the New York War. Alex looked at the scepter in his hand at first and didn’t know what he was thinking. After a while , the girl's delicate brows suddenly frowned, and she turned to look at the news that was being broadcast next to her.

"Miss?"

Alex didn't speak.

In the beginning, it was mainly her subconscious dark thoughts that caused Jarvis to call up the real-time news—it has to be said that those hundreds of years of illithid life really changed her way of thinking almost completely—in line with "How could someone do this? But what if someone really did this?" Jarvis transferred the news to her, but unexpectedly...

Some people actually do it.

Looking at the news videos and manuscripts displayed on the virtual screen, after returning to Earth, Alex clearly felt his negative emotions rising from his heart for the first time.

is anger.

"Ah."

Tony, who was playing with the big alien monster, frowned, suspecting that he was hallucinating: "I just heard someone sneer?"

The voices of other people sounded one after another in the Avengers channel:

"It wasn't me, but I heard it too!" Captain America cut off a cyborg's head with a star shield, and replied with a slight gasp.

"Maybe it's Loki? After all, he knows that, magic?" Hawkeye aimed at a small aircraft, and the arrow flew out with a whoosh.

Thor, who can't connect to the Avengers channel without a headset, said what are you all talking about: "What sneer?"

Under normal circumstances, in the face of these alien troops whose technological level and destructive power are far higher than those of the earth's army, and they are still fighting in Manhattan Island, New York, one of the most prosperous areas in the world, the Avengers, apart from concentrating on fighting the enemy In addition, I am afraid that I can't separate my mind to worry about other things: every second I slow down, I don't know how many innocent civilians died in such a catastrophe. Their eyes, ears and hearts are filled with the voices of innocent dead souls, and they have no time to care about him.

But now, there is a "dimension barrier", and it is confirmed that as long as those alien soldiers are not allowed to run out of the barrier range, the civilians inside will not be harmed. Under this premise, the invisible burden on the shoulders of the Avengers has disappeared. Nearly half of the time, only then did he have the mental strength to slap his mouth.

"Boys, can't you recognize that it's a girl's voice?" Black Widow said that she was desperate for her little friends who couldn't even tell the difference between male and female voices.

With one fist, the semi-mechanical, semi-biological man in front of him lost consciousness and fell to the ground. The knife in his right hand accurately pierced his vitals to ensure that it could not get up again. Then the Winter Soldier freed up to speak: "...Eric S?"

"Is that Alex's voice?" Tony expressed shock, he had never heard such a cold sneer from his little friend, "Because we don't take her to play?"

"I'm usually very seldom angry." A soft voice with a child's voice sounded over the communication channel, "Because there's nothing worthy of my anger—including you not taking me to play, Tony."

Tony: "...I think you missed a 'no', it's 'not including not taking you to play', right?"

This voice doesn't sound like it's lifeless!

There was silence for a few seconds, and then, a voice that was too sweet came: "Why would I be angry with you for such a trivial matter, Tony?"

Tony: "...I'm sure you're mad."

Stark Building.

The five letters "STARK" hanging under the terrace as a decoration were bombarded until only one "A" remained. Alex pushed the wheelchair to the side of the Rubik's Cube machine and looked up at the wormhole connected to the top of his head.

Half a minute ago, she turned off the outreach component for Jarvis in the wheelchair.

"I'm not angry," she said softly, "I'm just angry."

At this moment, the Avengers dealt with the Chitauri army—the advance squad, including the Leviathan giant beast. Loki, who also saw this scene, whispered that it would make the Avengers all angry. Changed words: "Send the rest."

"It's time, we should go."

In the asteroid base countless light-years away from the earth, relying on the wormhole opened by the Rubik's Cube, Ebony Throat and others received an order from Loki to send out an army. General Deathblade waved his weapon, Standing at the forefront of the line, Proxima Centauri was beside him.

Ebony Maw is a mage, stronger than the average person, but his body is completely incomparable with a professional close combat profession, so he chooses to stay behind the army, and at the same time, it is also the place with the best view.

"It's time to help our allies." He said, commanding teams and Leviathan monsters, preparing to go through the wormhole and go to Earth.

When the three passed through the wormhole, the habit of paying attention to the environment of the place they were about to arrive first made Ebony Maw and General Deathblade see the little girl next to the machine that opened the wormhole.

Snow skin, white skirt, silver curly hair, a figure close to that of a child...

An incredibly familiar figure.

The only difference is that the figure they are familiar with is forever frozen in a huge coffin of ice and snow, and even the angle at which the hair flutters is permanently fixed, a place that has not been eroded by time.

Only her spirit body can make various movements and expressions.

But the person who appeared in their field of vision at this time had a solid body, limbs and face.

She was playing with the scepter they gave to their allies in her hand, and the machine beside her was the Cosmic Rubik's Cube with a wormhole opened, and the ghost mage they thought was impossible to be beside the Cosmic Rubik's Cube, just so alive, quietly Sitting there quietly, looking up at them with a half-smile.

The reaction of the body was faster than that of the mind. Before General Deathblade could think of anything, he raised his hand first, stopping the army behind him who was about to spread out to kill through the wormhole.

"Ghost Mage!" He almost forced out these few syllables through gritted teeth.

"How is it possible..." Ebony Maw didn't object to him stopping the army, and he was also shocked by seeing the ghost mage, "How could she be beside the Cosmic Rubik's Cube..."

With the method of the ghost mage, if she is beside the Cosmic Rubik's Cube, it is impossible for the Cosmic Rubik's Cube to send any signal!

Not to mention being taken by Loki... Wait, what she is holding in her hand is Loki's scepter! ?

Ebony Maw's eyesight was enough for him to see clearly that it was a real scepter, not some mage's trick.

That should be in the hands of Loki - the scepter in the hands of their allies, why is it in hers?

Could it be that Loki was captured?When did this happen?When let them send out the army?Or... earlier?

even……

Ebony Throat stared at the ghost mage, the child had not yet left his immature cheeks with a look that he was very familiar with, the corners of his mouth slightly curled up, as if he was smiling, but when he looked carefully, he couldn't find the slightest hint of a smile ——That's the expression that the ghost mage will show when she sees her plan succeeds and the target walks into the trap all the way as she expected.

He had an extremely familiar look.

He has never seen anyone who can escape the ghost mage's calculations.

Could it be that, starting from the signal from the Cosmic Rubik's Cube, the whole thing was a game set for them by the ghost mage? !

Only in this way can they explain why they saw her just before the wormhole!

——They have been wandering in the universe for too long, and it is difficult to catch traces. In this case, let them expose their whereabouts by themselves!Using the Cosmic Rubik's Cube as bait, the consciousness of "there is a rich and remote planet called Earth, which is a good place to hide" was conveyed to them through Loki, and they were being chased by Thanos' army just in need. A shelter, so he formed an alliance with Loki who wanted to rule the earth, and gave Loki the scepter.

Using the resonance between the Cosmic Rubik's Cube and the Infinity Gem on the scepter, Loki arrived on Earth and told them, "He got the Cosmic Rubik's Cube", and then opened the wormhole. After hearing the news, they threw the army into the earth...

But if this is a game, the purpose is for them to be exposed to others independently! ?

Think about it carefully, the Asgardians have always been the guardians of the Nine Realms, and also the guardians of the earth. As the second prince of Asgard, why does Loki want to "rule" the people who are under the blessing of Asgard? Earth?Isn't that as unnecessary as standing in the kitchen of your own home and telling outsiders that this is my place?

And Loki, the evil god who is good at lying and conspiracy, isn't best at deception!

——If not, how to explain that their advance troops did not see the ghost mage, and when the army arrived, they found the ghost mage there?Isn't this just to prevent them from appearing too early, so that they can escape in time when they find something is wrong!

I found a "loophole", and looking back, "there are loopholes everywhere", Ebony Throat stared coldly at the ghost mage who couldn't see the joy or anger, and his heart was occupied by incomparable anger: he was tricked so much. Turn around and lose the scepter!

Counting the original asteroid base, this is the second time.

——After discovering that the asteroid base did not have the resource reserves they expected, and then contacted the scene where the ghost mage easily disappeared with the cosmic cube, even the slowest Deathblade General realized that they were severely tricked by the ghost mage G!

However, there will be no third time.

Suppressing the anger in his heart, Ebony Maw issued the order that General Deathblade had long wanted to issue: "Retreat!"

——Knowing that there is a trap ahead, you will continue to rush forward if you are stupid. Who knows how many troops Thanos will hide here waiting for them!

There is also that strange orange-yellow energy shield, which was not activated to deal with the advance troops just now, and I don't know what effect it is... Ebony Maw tends to be the trump card hidden by the ghost mage to deal with them, so it was not used in the first place. Used when waves of advance troops arrive.

When the army coming out of the wormhole slowly retreated, General Deathblade, who was in charge of the formation, saw that the ghost mage frowned. At this moment, a vigorous red-haired earth woman turned onto the terrace, To the side of the ghost mage.The ghost mage handed her the scepter, and the latter raised the scepter in his hand and stabbed at the Cosmic Rubik's Cube, which was surrounded by an energy shield and was not affected by external attacks.

"Quick retreat!" Suddenly realizing that the opponent was going to close the wormhole, Ebony Throat, who was still a little uncertain at first, no longer hesitated, and ordered without hesitation, and the retreat speed of the army behind him was more than doubled.

When the tip of the scepter pierced the energy shield, the Cosmic Rubik's Cube was cut off from the energy supply, and the power to maintain the wormhole suddenly disappeared. The wormhole, which was originally spacious enough for the army to pass through, quickly closed. gap, through the wormhole!

The moment they passed through, the wormhole closed behind them, and there was no scene from the earth in the dark universe.

on the earth.

The Avengers who captured Loki and were waiting for the follow-up army watched helplessly as the alien army arrived, the alien army stopped, and the alien army withdrew...

Then the wormhole disappears.

The crowd was stunned.

The disappearance of the wormhole can be explained - everyone's eyesight is not bad, and Jarvis's camera records in the Stark Building, it can be clearly seen that the little girl with silver curly hair picked up the scepter and told the black widow to turn it off (Bucky: That’s my child! Steve, you haven’t met her yet, I’ll introduce you to her later, Alex is very cute and cute! Speaking of which, her previous Christmas wish was to have a Uncle Bucky, it's a pity I can't make a second me, but I think I can use "Uncle Steve" to make up the number...), but what about the alien army?

What about invading the earth?

Just gone?

After a long time, Anthony Stark expressed his inner thoughts on behalf of everyone on the earth: "Are they here for sightseeing?"

"No," the silver curly-haired little girl who put away the scepter and just staged a "empty city plan" made a very righteous and righteous voice, "They are afraid of me, so they ran away."

"..."

Tony expressed his disdain with a silent gesture.
