The Undead Empire That Travels Through the Multiverse

It's an exciting day for New Yorkers.

It started with an alien invasion. Although this was a bit frightening to New Yorkers, this is New York after all. It would be unbelievable if something doesn't happen. The last time the Hulk demolished an entire block, that's all. , this time it’s just a bigger scale, and someone will take care of it.

As expected, the Avengers quickly gathered and began to resist the alien invasion.

There are not only the flying Iron Man and the thundering Northern God, but also the hero who should have been sleeping in the history textbooks has returned and once again picked up the shield that symbolizes the American spirit to protect his people.

It can be said that for New Yorkers, seeing Captain America put on that uniform and pick up that shield again made them feel at ease and worth the price of admission.

Not to mention that this hero, whose legendary stories almost everyone grew up listening to, is also protecting them as in the story.

Just kidding, with Captain America protecting you, why else do you feel unsafe?

Relying on Captain America's unparalleled appeal, the police and citizens of New York City were very willing to obey the captain's command, which also greatly protected most innocent people, allowing them to evacuate from the core war zone in time and avoid the dangers that had already occurred at that time. Chitauri flying all over the sky.

However, what everyone did not expect was that just when they thought the plot would be like those written in heroic stories, where the hero defeated a powerful enemy and protected his people after going through hardships, a nuclear bomb shattered everything. A false sense of security in people’s minds.

The power of nuclear weapons is well known to every American. The older generation even experienced the Cuban Missile Crisis, when the United States and the Soviet Union almost launched nuclear bombs at each other. There are even some old people who like to collect things who still have the copies issued that year. Nuclear war evacuation manuals and emergency food, as well as digging a bunker in his own backyard.

Not to mention that during World War II, the United States was the only country in the world that put nuclear bombs into actual combat, allowing the Japanese people to live an extremely lively summer with temperatures reaching 6,000 degrees Celsius.

But that was already a matter of the Cold War era. After at least nearly half a century, people have forgotten the feeling of a nuclear bomb hanging over their heads.

For Americans today, a nuclear bomb? It is just a mass murder weapon used by the United States to deter other countries. No country dares to throw nuclear bombs at the United States. The American people will no longer be threatened by the shadow of nuclear weapons.

However, it is true that no other country will drop nuclear bombs on the United States, but Americans can drop nuclear bombs on themselves.

Just above New York, just when the superheroes, led by Captain America, were resisting the alien invasion and almost beating the aliens back to end this disaster, the U.S. government actually launched a missile towards New York. Nuclear bomb!

Although it was just a tactical nuclear bomb, even if it exploded it would only destroy the core neighborhoods of New York, which was the main war zone at the time, and would not destroy the entire city. However, all New Yorkers will probably not be able to forget that afternoon in the years to come. The huge fireball rising in the sky of New York and the roar caused by the fireball.

That's a nuclear bomb! That was the first nuclear bomb detonated on American soil other than a nuclear test since the invention of nuclear weapons! Or in a place like downtown New York!

It would be okay if, like the development in the original sacred timeline, Iron Man desperately sent him into the portal and only blew up the aliens, the people would at least not know that a nuclear bomb had exploded on their heads.

But now, the nuclear bomb exploded on their heads, and the witnesses were not killed, at least not all.

Then things became big and awkward.

As mentioned before about the alien invasion, New Yorkers have a stable mood about this and have not expressed any dissatisfaction with the government. After all, you can’t expect American soldiers who have only fought in the security war to be here. What kind of good performance did you have on things?

Although in the movie, the Air Force pilots are so awesome that they can use plastic bugs to fight alien fighters, and even in the earlier era, the president could drive an F16 to fight aliens, but everyone knows that Hollywood blockbusters are just for fun, really. When aliens come, it is better to expect American soldiers than to expect historical figures in museums to jump out to protect them.

After all, Captain America really came out of history seventy years ago to protect the citizens of New York, and the U.S. military was absent from the entire war.

Neither the Air Force fighter jets that the United States is proud of nor the Navy aircraft carriers on which it dominates the world, not even the National Guard or fourth-class two-legged animals that are still using equipment from the last century, appeared, not a single person.

The only fighter that participated in the war made its only contribution to the battle was to launch a nuclear bomb on New York.

Under such circumstances, it would be rude for New Yorkers not to go out to demonstrate and protest.

As a result, hundreds of thousands of New York citizens took to the streets and large-scale protests and demonstrations broke out, demanding an explanation from the US government.

The scene was quite beautiful. Everyone was holding banners high and shouting slogans, walking mightily on the streets of New York.

Thanks to the Avengers' fighting, except for a few core neighborhoods that were the main war zones, the damage to New York City was not serious. The biggest damage to the city was actually the impact of the nuclear bomb explosion.

Because it was an air blast, even if Chen Mo took action and poured most of the power of the nuclear bomb onto the other side of the portal, the impact of the nuclear explosion still shattered the glass of all buildings within a radius of ten kilometers.

This also makes New York look like a mess now, without the elegance of one of the most prosperous cities in the United States and the luxury of the world's financial center.

"I have to say that Captain Rogers is really a natural leader. Even if he has never done this kind of thing, he can quickly unite everyone and lead them. If he is in a war, he will be a good general. ." Standing on the top floor of a building, Chen Mo was looking at Steve Rogers who was giving a speech on the street below, and making his own comments to the side.

A billionaire wearing a gold and red tin can landed on the open space nearby. The lid of the can opened to reveal Tony Stark with bruises on his face.

"How did you convince this old popsicle to stand up and speak out for them? I thought he would only go to war with his shield or sell war bonds like a clown!" Despite all the experiences, Tony... Stark has grown up a lot, and is no longer the foul-mouthed playboy he once was, but his temper is easy to change, and he still has a bad mouth.

Even if he wanted to express praise, the words he said still sounded like sarcasm.

Chen Mo didn't care about this and just smiled: "I don't need to convince him. All I did was tell him that the people of New York need a leader who stands up for them and organizes them, instead of being like a piece of loose sand." To cause a disturbance."

Having said this, Chen Mo turned to look at Iron Man who was walking next to him, glanced at him and said: "I think you should understand that if this matter is used by other politicians, these New York citizens should benefit from everything." Can’t catch it?”

"Obadiah used to handle these things. Now the president of Stark Industries is Pepper." Tony waved his hand indifferently. For him, managing the company was too boring, so in the past it was Obadiah Stane is running the Stark Corporation, and now Virginia Pepper Potts.

After all, the most outstanding thing about Tony Stark is his head that is cursed by knowledge. It is really a great achievement to use one of the top smart minds in the Marvel world in the administrative management of a multinational enterprise. A very wasteful thing.

"Leaving work to women is indeed your style." Chen Mo was not used to this bad-mouthed master, so he directly said to him: "So you just watch?"

"No, I provided a fund for the veteran and established two foundations for New York, one of which is used to rebuild the city, and the other is used to comfort those who were injured and lost their loved ones in this war. Man." This time Tony Stark did not refute or have a bad mouth, but said what he had done in a slightly sad mood: "But it's not enough..."

"Yes, it's not enough." Chen Mo nodded in agreement, but his meaning was obviously the opposite of what Tony Stark thought: "These responsibilities should have been borne by the government, but now they have to be borne by society. To shoulder the burden, what your government can do and do is not enough."

Tony heard what Chen Mo said. Although it was different from what he wanted to express, he still nodded in agreement: "The government should indeed take more responsibilities. I have already considered your suggestion for Lao Bingluo to participate in politics." After all, this is indeed a good proposal. Instead of letting those politicians do whatever they want, it is better to let people who can really do something for this country sit in that position.

I have made a plan for this, starting with being a city councilor in New York. I think the citizens of New York will not refuse him to become a city councilor. after this……"

"Stop, I'm not interested in hearing your campaign plan, it has nothing to do with me." Chen Mo interrupted Tony's speech, then reached out and pulled out a white envelope from the void beside him.

There is a line of words written on the envelope in dark purple ink, surrounded by gilding patterns and red paint on the seal. There is a rather complicated pattern on the paint. The starry sky forms a skull-shaped emblem surrounded by water. The top of the skull is wearing a A crown of bones, and the skull's eyes were two brilliant stars.

This envelope gave people a solemn solemnity and a kind of inviolable sanctity, just like the feeling when bidding farewell to the dead in the church, which made Tony involuntarily remove the armor of his hands. , took the letter with his own hand.

This was unprecedented for him. After all, he was not used to people handing things to him directly.

But this envelope and the emblem on it gave Tony Stark, a foul-mouthed playboy, genius inventor, and billionaire, the possibility that if he desecrated this envelope, he would be hunted to the edge of the universe at all costs. It feels like the end of time.

This forced him to take it seriously. After taking the envelope, he looked through it and saw that the line of text written in dark purple ink was in a language he had never seen before, but he understood the meaning above. It was his name.

"What is this? A letter to me?" Tony Stark looked at Chen Mo and asked with a bit of curiosity.

"This is an invitation. You can also understand it as an opportunity to gain knowledge and power and become the successor of the most powerful mage on this planet, or in this universe." Chen Mo saw Tony's attitude when he accepted the envelope. She was respectful, so she nodded and introduced to him: "The lady who appeared with me that day is revered as the Supreme Mage. She is the most powerful mage on this planet and even in this universe.

She has been guarding the earth in secret for a long time, resisting the surveillance and invasion of the earth by countless evil spirits from multiple dimensions.

You may not have heard of her name, but in the entire universe and multiple dimensions, the reputation of the Supreme Mage can be said to be resounding throughout the world, intimidating all powerful people who dare to spy on the earth.

Compared with those truly powerful threats, what you have experienced is just an appetizer. Those who can be enemies of the Supreme Mage are the masters behind the invading Chitauri.

But now this great Supreme Mage is tired. She has been exhausted from protecting the earth for hundreds of years, so she entrusted me to find a successor for her. While inheriting the title of Supreme Mage from her, she also We must shoulder the responsibility of protecting the earth. "

"So I was chosen?" Tony felt a little unreal. If the envelope hadn't given him the feeling that this was not a joke, he would have really thought it was a bad joke.

Although he also knew that both Chen Mo and Gu Yi who appeared together that day were truly mysterious and powerful beings, he who had always believed in science still had no real sense of this, and even felt that the so-called mages were nothing more than It's a trick or a magic trick.

But Chen Mo just shook his head slightly and said: "You have indeed been selected, but you only have the qualifications to become a candidate. Whether you can become a candidate or even a successor to the great Supreme Mage, you still need to go through many layers. Tests and difficulties prove that you have the ability and awareness to shoulder the responsibility of protecting the earth."

Chen Mo showed a slightly playful smile at Tony Stark, and then said to Tony: "Prove that you are qualified. You must know that being able to become the successor of the Supreme Mage is something that the entire universe will fight for." Opportunity."
