He's in the Marvel universe, and his first step is marrying Scarlet Witch.

Chapter 181 Research on Forbidden Techniques (Third Update)

Overall, he was actually quite happy with the result.

This means that the tasks on the panel are not fixed and can be changed based on his intervention. Otherwise, it would be very bad if a task with a predetermined bad result suddenly appeared one day.

For example, suddenly issuing a mission that Wanda is destined to die, and having him prepare to collect her body.

If the mission won't change because of his interference, it means that no matter what he does, Wanda will die, and he can only wait for the outcome in despair.

However, by intervening, he can proactively intervene in the development of events according to the situation, ensuring that Wanda does not die and thus the mission disappears. In this way, the mission can serve as a certain early warning effect.

Of course, it's not without its downsides; for example, he's now hesitant to interfere with Gamora and Nebula.

Otherwise, with his current strength and influence, he could easily find Gamora and Nebula and forcibly take the Mind Scepter and the Tesseract from them.

While we're at it, we can also extract some information about Thanos from Gamora and Nebula to prepare for the future.

With the Mind Scepter and the Cosmic Cube, he can unleash the Chitauri army to invade Earth whenever he wants, without having to rush it.

The result of what he's doing now is that the main quest might disappear entirely, a hard-won fantasy world might vanish, and the next main quest might not even be in any particular world or when it will appear.

So aside from occasionally doing some side quests, he devoted himself to practicing ninjutsu and magic at home.

Meanwhile, inside the S.H.I.E.L.D.'s temporary base, the Space Helicopter, Nick Fury stared at the disconnected phone call, his lips twitching involuntarily.

This was the first time anyone had dared to hang up on him like that since he became director of S.H.I.E.L.D.

Even so, he could only endure it. If it were before, he would have used various methods to secretly control Li Chuan and his wife Wanda, two dangerous people who possessed magic.

But that's obviously not possible now. Not only can he not do that, he also has to find a way to bring the couple to his side.

Because the "Pegasus Project" was restarted in an attempt to obtain the power of the Tesseract to create energy weapons, two malevolent aliens appeared. They not only stole the Tesseract but also took control of some outstanding agents and scientists, led by Hawkeye Patton.

Now he has to deal with Hydra while also trying to retrieve the Tesseract and stop the two aliens' conspiracy, which is really overwhelming for him.

On Hydra's side, he sought help from Maria Rambo, a friend he had met during the Kree invasion and the founder of the Intelligent Weapons Observation and Response Center, also known as S.W.O.R.D.

Then they sent out Ava Starr, an unexpected product of the "Goliath" project, a girl who gained the ability to change her own molecular structure due to an experimental accident in the quantum field.

He was also a highly skilled agent he secretly trained, codenamed "Ghost".

Only through the cooperation of both sides was the arrogance of Hydra temporarily suppressed, especially the Winter Soldier who had already assassinated him three times.

As for the two aliens, his original plan was to have Tony Stark, Li Chuan (who seemed to know the secret of the two aliens), and Black Widow take charge.

Although Tony Stark was very wary of them, he was still willing to help in the face of such a major issue, so he asked Coulson, a good-natured guy, to persuade him.

Black Widow was one of his agents, so a single order was all it took.

The last one, and the one he found most troublesome, was Li Chuan. On the surface, he was a philanthropist and entrepreneur, but in reality, he was a cunning and ruthless person who would not act without self-interest.

So he made the call himself and prepared very favorable terms for the deal, but the other party hung up before giving him a chance to negotiate.

"Natasha, you seem to have a good relationship with Li Chuan's wife. Go and try to persuade him to help."

Nick Fury thought for a moment and finally used the communicator to call Black Widow.

The two aliens seem to be carrying machines far more advanced than those on Earth, which has prevented S.H.I.E.L.D. from finding any trace of them despite their usually successful satellite searches.

Therefore, he is now concentrating all his resources as much as possible, in case the two aliens really do bring their army to Earth using the Cosmic Cube, just as Li Chuan said.

Then at least they need to have the power to fight back.

This is the worst-case scenario; the best-case scenario is that we can find two aliens in advance and prevent them from summoning an alien army to descend.

He had a deep understanding of the power of aliens. When the Kree Empire's fleet came to Earth's skies, Earth would have been doomed if Captain Marvel, Carol Danvers, hadn't single-handedly scared them away.

Even with Earth's current technology, he didn't believe it could withstand the powerful Kree Empire's space fleet back then.

This is why he is so enthusiastic about the Avengers program.

Captain Marvel made him realize that it would take tens of thousands of years of development for Earth to contend with the vast civilizations and powers in the universe, and only superheroes could overcome such a huge gap in civilization levels to protect Earth.

Of course, it's the obedient, law-abiding superheroes who act according to his rules and regulations; uncontrolled superheroes are also a threat.

The next day, inside the wardrobe space.

On a large square of yellow paper, Li Chuan swiftly carved five special spell symbols with the character "explosion" on them. Then, he formed an explosive fire jutsu with both hands and slowly pressed them into the paper.

"boom!"

However, the explosive fire escaping technique was only halfway through when it suddenly exploded, sending Li Chuan tumbling through the air several times before he finally landed.

"These multiplicative explosive tags are definitely not easy to draw!"

Li Chuan rolled over and stood up, then took out the Elder Wand and cast a healing spell on himself. He then took out another piece of paper and carefully repeated the previous steps.

As expected, he was blown into the air again.

The Mutual Multiplication Explosive Tags Technique seals the extremely destructive ninjutsu invented by the Second Hokage within the scroll.

Unlike different detonating tags that can only explode once when formed with a hand seal, multiplicative detonating tags continuously summon new detonating tags for targeted explosions when the hand seal is released. One tag becomes two, two become four, four become eight, and so on, indefinitely.

The blast radius and power will increase over time until the caster dispels the spell and the victim dies.

Because this kind of explosion does not distinguish between friend and foe, if the caster and teammates are not fast enough, they will be killed along with the enemies. Therefore, it was listed as a forbidden technique and placed in the sealing scroll.

Li Chuan has been researching this extremely powerful ninjutsu recently, but it is obviously not as easy as he imagined.
