A person is writing a diary in an American comic book, and Iron Man collapses at the beginning.

Chapter 138 The Ancient One was dumbfounded: The future was completely unclear!

The Avengers?

Thor immediately fell into deep thought.

Before obtaining the diary, or more precisely, before witnessing Captain America wielding his hammer against the Destroyer, Thor certainly wouldn't have considered such a thing.

With Thor's arrogance, which is in no way inferior to Tony Stark's, how could he, a being of Aesir descent, possibly be willing to sit on equal footing with a group of mortals?

How can I put it?

Although Odin's exile to Midgard wasn't for very long, the Thor of today is no longer the same Thor.

A series of major setbacks, such as not being able to lift the hammer and being mistaken for a mental patient, made Thor realize that he might not be as extraordinary as he thought.

Captain America, a mere mortal, temporarily held off the Destroyer, and Tony Stark, relying on his self-made armor, was also able to fight against the Destroyer.

This also made Thor realize that the mortals on Midgard were not as weak as he had imagined.

Although he was unwilling to admit it, Thor knew that deep down he approved of these people.

These Midgard guys are worthy of being on par with him, Great Thor!

Not to mention.

Thor now has a high degree of trust in the diary.

Considering the incredibly cruel future described in the diary, forming an alliance with some powerful figures at this time seems like a good option.

After all, isn't that what my future self did?

Or rather, didn't that's what you did in another universe?

You don't need to give me an answer right now.

Seeing that Thor was clearly swayed by his words, Nick Fury began to play hard to get, saying, "You can take your time to think about it."

In any case, Thor is indeed unable to return to Asgard now, and the Blacksmith has already made a decision.

While Thor is trapped on Earth, go all out and do everything you can to win over Thor!

Whether it's having Black Widow try to become a couple with Thor, or having Captain America develop a good friendship with Thor through his hammer, or other methods.

In short, Big Braised Egg has Thor figured out.

"As you know, over the course of more than a thousand years, I have led the most outstanding and exceptional warriors of the Nine Realms in all sorts of difficult battles."

"However, leading a Midgard combat force is something I've never done before."

"That sounds interesting. I can think about it."

Thor, as proud as Tony Stark, deliberately feigned deep thought before reluctantly nodding.

Nick Fury: "..."

Don't overact!

I, this bastard, never said I'd let you lead the Avengers!

Just joining!

"Get ready, Thor, we're moving in half an hour."

After a moment of indignation, Nick Fury spoke again in a serious tone, greeting Thor.

"Transfer?"

Where are we going?

Thor paused for a moment, then asked with some curiosity.

"You'll find out when you get there."

Nick Fury mysteriously kept Thor in suspense.

Where to transfer to?

Naturally, they moved to the newest secret base.

The location of this base is far too remote, which is extremely inconvenient for Lu Dan.

On the other hand, both the teleportation of the Warriors Three and the Destroyer caused quite a stir.

The same applies to the epic battle between the original Avengers and the Destroyer; this secret base will likely attract a lot of attention soon.

It is indeed not advisable to stay for long.

So, right after the diary spoilers ended, while Thor was still trying to pick up his hammer, Nick Fury had already made a series of arrangements.

After returning from Thor, Nick Fury went back to his temporary office and made some other necessary arrangements.

Once everything was ready, he and the other Avengers boarded a Quinjet and left.

They arrived at another prepared secret base.

After settling Thor, Captain America, and the others in, Nick Fury dragged his weary body back to his office.

After only a few minutes of resting with his eyes closed while leaning back in his chair, Lu Dan sat up straight again and got back to his work.

"Patton!"

"That concludes the mission in New Mexico. Now, I need you to do something else."

Nick Fury immediately summoned Hawkeye Barton and gave him a very important task.

"Sir, aren't you going to give me even a little bit of leave?"

Hawkeye Barton shrugged in front of Nick Fury, of course, it was just a joke.

For special agents like them, there's no such thing as a vacation.

"The task I'm giving you is easier than taking a vacation."

Lu Dan didn't waste any more words with Hawkeye Barton and went straight to the point, assigning the task: "Peggy Carter, I want you to keep a close eye on her."

Peggy Carter?

Hawkeye Barton was genuinely surprised.

Hawkeye Patton, being such a famous figure, naturally knew about him, which is precisely why he was even more confused.

Peggy Carter must be almost a hundred years old by now, right?

I don't think he's dead, but he's gotten so old. He must have been abandoned by the times long ago.

Why would my superior suddenly assign me to keep an eye on someone like this?

"I have reliable intelligence that another Captain America may be lurking around Peggy Carter."

"So that's right, your real target is that other Captain America."

Before Hawkeye Barton could ask any questions, Nick Fury spoke up again to add his explanation.

Another Captain America?

Judging from what the officer is saying, there's more than one Captain America?

This is truly amazing.

Why have I never heard of such a thing before?

"Sir, is there anything else you can tell me about that other Captain America?"

After a moment's thought, Hawkeye Barton asked Nick Fury a very crucial question.

"That's a Captain America who looks almost exactly like Rogers."

After a moment's thought, Nick Fury didn't tell Hawkeye Barton the truth, but simply summarized the characteristics of the future Captain America.

To facilitate Hawkeye Patton's missions.

Apart from that, no other additional information was disclosed.

Almost identical?

Is he a fanatical Captain America imitator?

Hawkeye Patton naturally still had some doubts, but it was clear that his superior did not intend to say more, so Patton did not ask any further questions.

After greeting the braised eggs, he got up and left in a hurry.

"Natasha."

After Barton left, Nick Fury summoned Black Widow to his presence.

"The investigation into the Black Captain America and the serum is temporarily suspended."

"All matters related to Hulk have also been temporarily suspended."

"You'll stay in this base for the rest of your time and try to get closer to Thor."

"The best outcome, I hope, is that you can replace Jane Foster!"

Lu Dan made no attempt to hide his ambition and indeed assigned the task of conquering Thor to Black Widow.

"Sir, are you sure?"

Black Widow raised an eyebrow and voiced her doubts to Nick Fury, "Thor is an Aesir god, isn't this going a bit too far?"

"Don't tell me you don't want Thor to prepare a special spell just for you, so you can become a female Thor like Jane Foster."

Nick Fury looked completely at ease.

Lu Dan has already considered it; Black Widow is basically out of the question if she's expected to pick up a hammer or something based on her flawless moral character.

After all, Black Widow has done a lot of dirty work for me over the years.

Not to mention, when the other party was in the Red House, he could be even more clearly identified as a thoroughly bad person.

Therefore, Nick Fury felt that this "conventional method" was unlikely.

However, the diary also reveals that there is more than one way to pick up a hammer.

Besides following the path of Odin's spells, you can also follow the path of Thor's spells, right?

If Black Widow truly wins Thor's heart, wouldn't it be just as good if Thor gave her a special spell?

Lu Dan thinks this is a path worth trying.

"I am a spy, sir."

Black Widow gave Nick Fury a meaningful reply.

Spies don't need to think or not; they only need to obey orders.

"very good!"

Lu Dan nodded with great satisfaction and waved his hand to send Black Widow away.

Following Black Widow, Nick Fury gave Coulson a series of tasks before leaving the base.

He arranged to meet Tony Stark at a secluded place.

"These are some relevant clues and information I found, which I believe will be very useful to you."

Nick Fury handed a paper document to Playboy.

Those were some of Hydra secrets that Nick Fury had uncovered in the most recent period.

The materials were not online, but offline.

This is something Jarvis couldn't investigate.

Tony Stark smoothly put away the document, displaying a manner quite reminiscent of spies making contact.

After all, this wasn't the first time they'd done something like this since they joined forces to fight Hydra after being assassinated by them.

Playboys are used to it.

"You seem to have something else to say. You know me, I don't like beating around the bush."

"So just say what you have to say."

After putting the documents away, Tony Stark glanced at the braised egg in front of him and said sharply.

Judging from the way the other person was staring at me so intently, there was no doubt about it.

"Great, I like it this way too."

Nick Fury didn't waste any more words with Tony Stark. "It's about the Tesseract..."

"Nick Fury!"

Before Lu Dan could finish speaking, Tony Stark couldn't help but interrupt him, "God, do you never learn your lesson?"

"Are you really going to risk the safety of the entire planet?"

The playboy was already getting a little angry.

The diary has already revealed the real reason for the Battle of New York, but Nick Fury still plans to stir up trouble?

What's going on in that black braised egg's head?

"No, Stark, you've misunderstood."

Nick Fury shook his head and earnestly explained to the playboy, "I'm not inviting you to study the Cosmic Cube, but to build a completely new security system."

So that's how it is!

The playboy's expression softened, and he agreed without any hesitation.

Even without Nick Fredo saying it, Playboy was already planning to do it.

After all, the Chitauri teleported using the Tesseract!

This thing is too important; we absolutely cannot let Loki take it.

The two sides reached an agreement very happily.

Immediately afterwards, Lu Dan and Tony Stark left as if nothing had happened.

They even pretended to be complete strangers, being extremely cautious.

However, what they never expected was that their extremely secretive meeting had already been seen by someone else!

Who?

It certainly wasn't Zhou Cheng; Zhou Cheng doesn't have a penchant for spying on others.

It is not a hydra either.

Although Hydra had been secretly watching Nick Fury, Lu Dan was, after all, a king of secret agents, and he was more than capable of dealing with Hydra.

So who was secretly "spying" on the braised eggs and the Playboy this time?

Ancient One!

"This scene is not among the countless possibilities for the future."

Kamar-Taj, in an incredibly spacious room.

As the Ancient One gazed at the image projected in front of him, his brows furrowed slightly.

As someone who has lived for countless years—no, to be precise, as the guardian of the Time Stone, possessing the means to observe the future—the Ancient One's life can be described as extremely dull and boring.

After all, she knows everything that will happen in the future.

It's like watching "Detective Conan" and knowing all the culprits beforehand—it's so boring it's almost painful.

This may be one of the reasons why the Ancient One wanted to retire.

After all, life wasn't very interesting for her.

But who could have imagined that just two years ago, things would suddenly change.

At that time, the Ancient One discovered that the originally predetermined future was beginning to become somewhat blurry.

Many of the possibilities that it originally observed have disappeared, and many others have become completely blurred, so much so that even the Ancient One could not observe them!

Gu Yi was quite surprised by this, because she had never encountered anything like it before.

Since then, the possible timelines of the future that have been blurred have become more and more numerous.

As a result, things happening in the real world are gradually becoming unpredictable for the Ancient One!

Just like what happened just now.

The Ancient One had no idea what was going on.

She has conducted countless investigations, but has found absolutely nothing.

At the source of all that changed, it seemed as if a powerful hand was covering everything, preventing the Ancient One from seeing it.

Therefore, the Ancient One knew long ago that whatever that giant hand was, it was a power beyond her capabilities.

The Ancient One couldn't possibly find anything out; all she could do was continue to observe the future, nothing more!

With that thought in mind, the Ancient One stopped talking and placed her hands in front of her chest, then gently waved them.

Click click click!

The Eye of Agamotto opened, revealing the Time Stone, which shone with a dazzling light.

Through the power of the gems, the Ancient One once again glimpsed the future.

This time, the Ancient One suddenly opened her eyes, her face filled with astonishment.

"The future is already a blur!"
