Alien invasion? Luckily, I'm Superman.

Ultimately, T'Challa agreed to Su Mo's request. Although he might be seen as a traitorous and incompetent ruler by the other elders, he believed that his future people would thank him.

Right now, everything on Earth is harmonious. Su Mo took a moment to visit Kamar-Taj. The Ancient One, the Sorcerer Supreme, is still alive, so Dormammu and Thanos won't be invading Earth for the time being. Reassured, Su Mo left the Marvel Universe and returned to his own Earth.

Due to the time difference caused by the time travel, a year has passed on Earth. In this year, the scars left by the alien invasion have gradually healed, but the hatred and fear in people's hearts have not been eliminated.

The Earth Federation's technological development is in full swing, and the imitation of alien frigates is almost complete. They have already built a research ship, an engineering ship, and a small attack fleet.

A research vessel carrying a group of scientists traveled to the nearest Alpha Centauri system to investigate resources and potential colonizable Earth-like planets. Having explored most of the solar system's resources, the engineering vessel established a research station and space base on the sun's surface, and began mining minerals in the asteroid belt and on planets like Venus, transporting them back to Earth to be smelted into alloys and consumer goods.

Humans have also built essential facilities for Mars colonization, such as enclosed airtight habitats and biological ecological circulation cabins, on the basis of the original Mars research station.

Standing outside the federal government building, Su Mo looked at humanity's own fleet in space, his heart filled with emotion.

"Su Mo, haha, how's Earth now? Isn't it much better than a year ago?" Commander Zhao appeared behind Su Mo and patted him on the back. *Slap on the back.* Old Zhao quietly shook his aching hand.

"That's great," Su Mo replied with a smile. "Grandpa Zhao, it's been a long time! You still look so young. By the way, has anything happened on Earth while I was away?"

"There wasn't any major crisis," Grandpa Zhao recalled. "About six months ago, a group of merchant ships calling themselves the 'Dismantlers Alliance' passed by Earth and offered to buy ship fragments from space. We figured we'd collected everything usable, so we might as well exchange the rest for some resources. Also, the Compound V you brought back is really useful. After we improved it, we can now use it with minimal side effects in cutting-edge fields across various industries. The Ark Energy and the Full-Coverage Mech also have their merits."

"Yes, it's good that it works." Su Mo nodded.

Afterwards, Su Mo chatted with Grandpa Zhao for a long time and unexpectedly heard a rumor: someone claimed to have awakened superpowers and heard the words of "Madoka." However, when the government sent people to check if there was a leak of Compound 5, they found nothing, assuming that ordinary people had learned of its existence. This substance was originally intended to be made available to everyone after it was completely rendered harmless. Su Mo didn't pay much attention to it.

In the days that followed, Su Mo stayed in his office, using the cosmic conquest experience copied from Asgard to slowly revise the Federation's policies and strategies. Occasionally, he would travel to various parts of the world, and by this time, entertainment had gradually returned.

A month later, Su Mo bid farewell to Grandpa Zhao and passed through the portal again, returning to the Marvel Universe. It wasn't that he didn't want to go to other worlds, but rather that he lacked the power to handle any problems that a single universe might present itself to him.

Because of the chaotic flow of the world, two months have passed in the Marvel universe.

The Sky Eye has been mining vibranium for over a month. Vibranium truly lives up to its reputation as one of Marvel's rarest metals; many strength issues in spaceship components are easily resolved with its power. From Wanda, Su Mo also learned that Tony, along with scientists from numerous countries, had traveled on an Asgardian spaceship to the Nova Corps' interstellar exchange to trade technology.

Su Mo prepared to go to Kamar-Taj to find the Ancient One. He had been reading spellbooks with Pudding for some time, accumulating many questions. Although he could figure them out himself, wouldn't it be better to ask the Archmage directly? So he flew to Nepal, only to receive devastating news—the Ancient One had disappeared.

"Modu, are you sure the Ancient One has disappeared?" Su Mo covered his forehead, feeling dizzy.

"Yes, Junior Brother Su Mo." Mordo nodded. He was unaware that the disappearance of the Ancient One might be her demise, so his expression remained relatively calm.

"Strange," Su Mo suddenly spoke, catching Mordo off guard. Su Mo continued, "Where is Strange? I need to find him. Also, go and inform the three great temples to prepare for the possible impending impact."

"Junior Brother, what's wrong?" Mo Du was puzzled, but seeing Su Mo's serious expression, he still accepted the mission to deliver a message to the three holy temples.

After letting Mordo leave, Su Mo calmed down and wondered if she had been too nervous. But Su Mo quickly realized that if nothing serious happened, she could simply apologize, but if there was a real crisis, at least she could minimize the losses.

Next, based on Mordo's answer, Su Mo found Strange, who was studying magic with the King at the Kamar-Taj Library.

Su Mo stepped forward, interrupting the two, and said, "Strange, the Ancient One may have perished. Did she leave you anything before she left?"

"What?" Wang and Strange were both shocked, immediately realizing the seriousness of the situation. Wang raised his hand and opened a portal to the New York Sanctum. The three of them stepped inside and immediately saw the Eye of Agamotto floating in the air above the hall.

Strange stepped forward, and the Eye of Agamotto immediately flew over and placed around his neck. At the same time, the video left behind by the Ancient One began to play.

An illusory image of the Ancient One appeared before them, smiling as she spoke: "Strange, from now on you are the Sorcerer Supreme. King, assist Strange." She paused, her gaze seemingly piercing through the image to land on Su Mo, "And Su Mo, don't worry about the future."

The Ancient One paused, giving everyone time to process what was happening, before continuing, "I am dead. It was my former disciple, Kaecilius, who killed me. He became a follower of Dormammu, and he killed me to bring Dormammu to Earth."

Before he could finish speaking, a massive cloud of black mist broke through the outer defenses of the New York Temple and rushed in, shattering the image. Wang immediately deployed multiple layers of golden, ring-shaped Vishanti Shields to block the encroaching black mist.

With the help of the Cloak of Levitation, Strange took to the air and unleashed Bosat's Lightning in the direction the enemy was hiding. The wide-range fire energy attack immediately dispelled the black mist and forced the enemy to reveal themselves.

With their identities revealed, Casillas and the others no longer concealed themselves. He emerged from the black mist, conjuring a black energy blade in his right hand, and simultaneously unleashed magic, dragging everyone into the mirror space.

Su Mo leaped into the air, heat rays bursting from his eyes and shooting towards Casillas. Casillas manipulated the mirror space, shifting the platform beneath his feet to dodge the heat rays.

Su Mo immediately rushed over, intending to finish him off in close combat. However, Kaecilius continued to manipulate the mirror space, with a constant stream of enormous stone pillars crashing into Su Mo at high speed, much like Obito's Kamui dimension in Naruto.

Su Mo dodged left and right, weaving through the gaps between the stone pillars. Just as he evaded the last wave of pillars and approached Casillas, the opponent tore through space in an attempt to escape.

Pudding seized the opportunity, and a red Cytorak Rope shot out from Su Mo's body, tightly wrapping around Casillas's waist and pulling him back from the torn spatial rift.

Su Mo pulled his right fist back and slammed it into his opponent's abdomen. His fist pierced through Casillas's body, then he tore it in two with both hands. Casillas was ripped in two, black blood splattering everywhere. (Not dead yet.)
