American Comics: Borrowed Magic By Skill, Why Should I Return It?

Rustic old hats!

A group of rustic old hats!

This was the first impression of the Avengers alliance by the Silver Shield team.

Rocket Raccoon glanced at Star-Lord with a skeptical look, meaning something like, "Are you sure they can help?"

These people probably haven't even stepped out of the solar system.

They don't even know who Thanos is.

Are you sure they can help with a crisis of this level in the universe?

"Ahem, well, the Cosmic Orb is actually the Power Stone in the Infinite Gems."

"Um, do you guys know about the Infinite Gems~?"

Feeling a bit embarrassed by his comrades' doubts about his home planet, Star-Lord cleared his throat and started introducing.

To prevent the Avengers alliance from not even knowing about the Infinity Stones.

Star-Lord was also prepared to explain further.

But before he could say anything...

The Avengers alliance showed their usual expressions.

Tony even took out an orange-yellow gem from his pocket.

"What cosmic orb? Why don't you just say Infinite Gems?"

"We're familiar with this..."

"There are already four known Infinite Gems on Earth."

The orange gem in Tony's hand was the Mind Gem that was taken from Ultron.

Except for this one.

The other three Infinite Gems on Earth are in the hands of Chu Xiu.

The Reality Gem, Space Gem, and the Time Gem embedded in the Eye of Agamotto.

Originally, Tony planned to give the Mind Gem to Chu Xiu, but since Chu Xiu reached the level of True Heavenly Father...

His need for the Infinite Gems wasn't as strong anymore.

So, that matter was left unresolved.

"Four... four of them!?"

"You have four Infinite Gems on Earth!?"

Rocket Raccoon, who just thought Earthlings were rustic old hats, almost jumped out of his chair upon hearing Tony's words.

There are only six of these things in the entire universe!

Why does Earth have so many?

Could it be that the universe revolves around Earth?

In fact...

Rocket Raccoon guessed right!

In the Marvel universe, almost all major events revolve around Earth.

And the Ancient One mentioned before that the dimensional axis of the main world is on Earth.

Once disasters like dimensional collisions occur...

The Earth is always the first to suffer.

"So, you're saying Thanos' true goal is to collect the Infinite Gems?"

Black Widow relied on her agent's intuition.

Instantly realizing that the Power Stone was just the beginning.

"No, the Infinite Gems are just a means to an end. Thanos' true goal is to wipe out half of the universe's life."

"To restore balance to the universe."

"Ever since Thanos became self-aware, it has been acting towards this goal."

"Before, it would massacre planet after planet..."

"Leading its Vanguard and Chitauri armies, waging war throughout the universe."

"But then it found this process too slow, so it started collecting the Infinite Gems. If it successfully collects all six Infinite Gems, then..."

"It can achieve its dream with a snap of its fingers."

"Just like this!"

Gamora, with a serious expression, snapped her fingers, making a sound.

However, she didn't notice...

At that moment, the expressions of the Avengers alliance had become very strange.

"Uh..."

"Don't you aliens study biology?"

Tony had a strange expression.

In biology, there's something called K/2.

If the carrying capacity of an environment is K, then the population grows fastest when it reaches K/2!

In other words, when a species is reduced by half, it actually experiences the fastest population growth stage!

If Thanos really intends to maintain universal balance by "eliminating half of life,"

Then it would probably have to snap its fingers every now and then.

"Tony, let's not worry about the details for now."

"Haven't we seen enough unscientific things during this time?"

Fortunately, Captain America stepped in and brought the topic back on track.

But Tony still had an indifferent expression.

The reason was simple...

"If Thanos needs to collect all six Infinite Gems to snap his fingers, then why are we lying?"

"Does it have the ability to take the three gems from Chu Xiu's hands?"

Tony leaned back on the couch.

Muttering something like "I'm invincible, my good brother" under his breath.

However...

Just as Tony relaxed his guard for a moment.

A silver lightning bolt came straight at him!

"Watch out!"

Hercules and Ares, the two Greek gods, were the first to notice the crisis.

Then, Hawkeye, Iron Fist, and others also reacted.

Captain America picked up the Vibranium shield next to him, wanting to save Tony.

But...

Their speed was too slow!

In front of that silver lightning, everyone's movements were as slow as slow motion in a movie.

But one person reacted!

Thud!

The silver lightning was blocked by a specially made blind cane.

It was Daredevil!

Although he couldn't keep up with Quicksilver's movements.

But his super hearing and echolocation-like ability.

Allowed him to predict Quicksilver's next move based on the motion trajectory he left behind.

"Tony Stark!"

"Your time is up!"

Unable to land a single attack, Quicksilver was surrounded by a dozen Avengers, but he showed no fear.

These people were too slow!

Couldn't keep up with him at all!

After saying a few words, Quicksilver's figure disappeared in an instant.

"Where did he go?"

Captain America's voice had just fallen.

He felt his body become light, as if he had been punched at high speed.

He soared into the air, somersaulted, and fell to the ground.

RE

"Stand behind me!"

Luke Cage relied on his indestructible steel body to protect the others.

But the next second.

A golden teleportation portal appeared under his feet.

"Ah!"

He stepped into nothingness.

Luke Cage was directly transported to a snowy mountain.

"It's magic!"

Hawkeye took out his bow and arrow.

Nervously looking around.

Quicksilver would leave a silver trail when he moved.

But his speed was too fast, so these silver trails almost formed a straight line.

Even Hawkeye couldn't determine Quicksilver's exact location.

"How about that? Didn't you anticipate this step?"

When Hawkeye heard Quicksilver's mockery, he was sent flying.

The bow and arrow fell to the ground.

"Damn, what's going on?"

"Why do I feel like they need support more than we do?"

The members of the Guardians of the Galaxy were a bit confused by the sudden change in front of them.

They hesitated for a moment.

They still decided to lend a hand.

But before Drax the Destroyer could step forward.

The familiar golden portal appeared again at his feet.

"Ah! Quill!"

Drax shouted.

And was thrown into a vast ocean by the portal.

Quicksilver, who had learned magic, was no longer as simple as 1+1=2 in terms of strength!

In his high-speed movement, he could use his advantage as a speedster to make quick judgments and cast magic in an instant!

And Quicksilver was very clever!

Like Luke Cage, Drax the Destroyer... these tough characters that he couldn't handle on his own.

Quicksilver didn't confront them head-on, but instead teleported them to other places.

Leaving only Captain America, Hawkeye...

These weaker characters that he could handle on his own.

With this fighting strategy.

Quicksilver quickly gained the absolute advantage on the field.

18...

But he made a mistake that villains often make - talking too much.

"Tony Stark! You executioner!"

"You killed my parents!"

"Do you know how many people died because of the weapons you created!?"

While knocking down other members of the Avengers alliance, Quicksilver approached Tony Stark.

At the same time, he vented his anger loudly.

"???"

Tony looked confused.

Dude, how long has it been since I sold weapons?

And those terrorists' weapons were secretly sold by Obadiah Stane, not me.

What does it have to do with me?

But Quicksilver obviously didn't care about these things. He was now consumed by revenge.

Just as the situation became more and more dangerous.

Someone stepped forward!

With his aura!

AKA the likable hero!

"Hello, my name is Phil Coulson. Let's talk about what we can do."
