American comics: Starting from a copycat arms dealer.

Chapter 222 Got the soul gem!

However, the Red Skull's job is to guide others to obtain the Soul Stone.

So he immediately started playing tricks and giving hints in a disembodied voice.

"Gamora, daughter of Thanos, Nebula, daughter of Thanos, Carl Davis."

Carl interrupted directly: "Don't talk nonsense, I'm in a hurry. I know the conditions for obtaining the soul gem. Just take us to the top of the mountain."

The Red Skull has been on this deserted planet for decades, and this is the first time he has seen a guy like Carl who has turned the tables.

But as his duty required, he had to obediently lead the way immediately.

Soon, the group arrived at the cliff at the top of the mountain.

The Red Skull was just about to introduce that he needed someone with true love to volunteer to sacrifice himself by jumping off the cliff.

Karl winked and said, "First pair, go ahead. It's time for you to fulfill your promise."

This couple were refugees from America. Even though they often went hungry, they never abandoned each other and have supported each other all the way to this day.

Young man, for the promise Carl made.

As long as he is willing to sacrifice himself, his girlfriend can get the chance to be protected by the umbrella.

He took one last deep look at his lover, then jumped off the cliff without hesitation.

The action was so clean and quick that even Red Skull was caught off guard.

No, you know what to do before I even introduce it?

Then wouldn't it be useless for me to be a guide?

Carl didn't care about the Red Skull's depression. He just stared at the bottom of the cliff.

Waited for a few seconds.

The young man's girlfriend was suddenly teleported away by a beam of orange light.

Then, Carl seemed to hear someone shouting from below the cliff.

"Success~"

Carl's face was filled with joy. It turned out to be successful at once. What a good sign!

He couldn't wait to teleport to the bottom of the cliff.

Sure enough, I saw the surviving young woman standing up from the shallow water.

At this moment, there was still fear in her eyes, and she raised her hands tremblingly, showing the orange soul gem in her hands.

After taking the Soul Gem, Carl used atomic matter to create a metal sphere that only he could open, and stored the Soul Gem in it.

Then, he looked at the young woman and said with great satisfaction: "Well done, when you return, you and your family will be given shelter under the umbrella."

Although the young woman was sad about her boyfriend's death, she kept thanking him profusely.

"Thank you. Thank you Boss for the reward."

Then, Carl took the young woman and teleported back to the top of the mountain.

After the Red Skull completed his mission as a guide, he disappeared.

Carl took everyone on Gamora's spaceship and returned to Earth after more than 1000 jumps.

The spacecraft rushed out of the jump wormhole with a "swoosh" and stopped in the space near the earth.

Seeing Nebula and Gamora's vigilant expressions, fearing that he would not keep his promise, Carl said with a hint of impatience:

"Thank you very much for providing the coordinates of the planet Vormir. Now that the transaction is completed, the nebula will be returned to you."

After saying that, Carl teleported everyone back to the North American base.

He asked his men to take these ten couples away and settle them down. Carl was in a good mood today, and he gave them all places in the shelter with a wave of his hand.

The young woman who sacrificed her boyfriend was given D3 level authority and became a formal civilian employee of Umbrella.

"Thank you, Boss"

The ten couples thanked with joy on their faces. They just made a trip and were able to get a place in the shelter.

This is really pie in the sky for them.

After the strangers left, Carl took out the silver metal ball and took out the soul gem inside.

Looking at the soul gem emitting a faint orange light, Carl couldn't wait and started to use energy to absorb it.

Constantly absorbing the energy in the Soul Gem.

A dozen thin orange lines extended from the surface of the Soul Gem and connected to Carl's head.

after an hour.

Carl felt that his soul was cleansed, his mental strength was greatly improved, his psychic abilities were enhanced, and he gained a new ability - soul manipulation.

Now he can also, like Ancient One, slap someone's soul out of their body with a light palm.

It also possesses defensive capabilities at the soul level, making up for its shortcomings in the soul aspect.

"Somehow, my strength seems to have reached a bottleneck. I estimate that my strength is approaching the peak of the Heavenly Father level!"

Carl was extremely happy. The improvement that the Soul Gem brought him was much greater than he had imagined.

He called up the system panel, wanting to see more intuitively how much his strength had increased.

[Host: Carl Davis]

[Power: 35]

[Speed: 20]

【Physique: 120 million】

【Intelligence: 460】

[Strength: Pseudo-peak Heavenly Father Level]

[Abilities: telekinesis, sixth sense, immortality, space teleportation, telepathy, atomic manipulation, energy manipulation, soul manipulation, gravity stance.]

[Level 1 Mall] [Level 2 Mall] [Level 3 Mall (not open)]

[System Points: 36720]

After carefully reading the system panel, Carl had a clear understanding of his own strength.

However, there was an additional strength data on this system panel, which made him a little confused.

"What does it mean to be a pseudo-peak Heavenly Father level?"

After thinking for a long time, Carl believed that the system must have detected that it still had shortcomings in some aspect.

I guess only those who have no shortcomings can be considered at the peak of the God-Father level.

"It seems that I have to wait until I have fully exploited the four Infinity Stones before I can reach the peak strength of the Father God level."

Now Carl has four Infinity Stones in his hands, and only the Reality Stone and the Time Stone are left.

The Reality Gem will not appear until 2013, when the nine realms are united.

As for the Time Stone, Carl plans to save it for last, as he has to deal with the mysterious wizard like Ancient One.

It can be regarded as a respect for Ancient One, as one of the combat ceilings in the Marvel world, although he died so quickly.

But its true strength is so strong that it can even scare the dimensional demons away from invading the earth.

Following the principle of doing the easy things first and then the difficult, Carl saved the Time Stone for last.

While thinking.

"Dong dong!"

There was a knock on the office door and Ada Wang walked in quickly.

"Boss, urgent military information. Just now, the Skrulls' vanguard brazenly entered Mexico and launched an attack on America."

"Steve Rogers has returned to America and is leading the Avengers to set up a defense line on the US-Mexico border. They are fighting a fierce battle with the Skrulls' coalition of 100 nations."

Karl was not surprised to hear the news.

"Stay alert, we don't have to do anything, just let them fight."

To Carl, it makes no difference whether Earth is ruled by Skrulls or humans.

He gave Ada Wang a look.

Compared to the boring war, he would rather have sex with the beauty in front of him.

Carl stroked Ada Wang's hair and watched the little bees diligently collecting honey. He couldn't help but sigh:
“This is life~”

The joys and sorrows of people are not connected.

Carl is enjoying his life leisurely.

There was artillery fire on the US-Mexico border, and countless human soldiers were killed by artillery shells and died tragically on the battlefield.

Apart from World War I and World War II, not counting alien invasions, this war is the largest war in human history.

The Skrull coalition of 170 nations deployed 227 million troops and formed divisions to conduct large-scale operations.

5000 tanks, 1000 fighter jets, 500 bombers, armored vehicles, armed helicopters, etc. were also deployed.

Almost all the military forces of South American countries were dispatched.

In contrast, the Avengers led by Steve has less than 28 troops, but their weapons and equipment are very advanced.

The most advanced F-35 fighter jets, M1 main battle tanks, intercontinental missile launchers, and so on are all available.

However, the biggest problem facing the Avengers now is that they have more weapons and equipment than soldiers.

The United States has recovered weapons and equipment from hundreds of military bases around the world.

Today, the arms warehouses are filled with tens of thousands of tanks of various models, thousands of F-15 fighter jets, hundreds of land-based missile launchers, and thousands of tons of various ammunition.

However, due to lack of manpower, the Avengers could only let these advanced equipment pile up in the warehouse and gather dust.

This is because modern warfare requires soldiers of very high quality.

Tanks, planes, and missile launchers are not something that ordinary soldiers can drive.

America has experienced so many disasters that its army was disbanded long ago.

Even the last orthodox army, the 200,000-strong force controlled by the White House government in Washington, had long been dispersed in the alien invasion.

The Avengers led by Steve are mostly composed of civilians at the lower levels, and the elite retired soldiers are all officers.

It is easy to let ordinary soldiers pick up rifles and fight, after all, the people of this country are very familiar with firearms.

But let them drive tanks, fighter jets, or even launch intercontinental ballistic missiles.

Most of the Avengers' soldiers couldn't do that.

Due to the two disasters, the Avengers spent most of their time traveling around America for rescue operations, leaving them with little time for military training.

However, short-term training is not enough for an ordinary person to become a qualified tank soldier or pilot.

Not to mention that the revenge soldiers are now unstable and the ordinary soldiers can't even get enough food to eat. It is really difficult for them to take up guns to defend the country.

Many Avengers soldiers felt that this war was meaningless. America had already been riddled with holes, and many third- and fourth-tier cities were deserted and completely abandoned.

The population of major cities has also dropped by 60% to 70%.

Even due to the impact of nuclear radiation dust, insufficient sunlight, abnormal climate and other reasons, this year's grain production will be significantly reduced again.

The American people today are living in dire straits, and most of the lower-class people have to endure hunger every day.

In this situation, it is really nonsense to call on people to take up guns to defend the country.

Not to mention the American people, who have always only shouted for free people to cook. Do you want them to go to the battlefield while hungry?
This is a serious violation of humanitarianism. In the past, the Avengers would have quit their jobs and started protesting.

But now, Captain America Steve has taken the lead with his personal charm.

These 20 Avengers soldiers were forced to endure hunger and fight the enemy.
