Chapter 157 Captain Marvel's Surprise: Something's Wrong with This Braised Egg!

"Mmm, it tastes really good!"

"It's been so long, I almost forgot how to use a knife and fork."

"It's really a bit awkward!"

A window seat at an inconspicuous Western restaurant on the street.

Captain Marvel and the braised egg sat facing each other.

The woman kept sighing to herself as she stuffed a piece of steak into her mouth with her fork.

This familiar taste did indeed evoke many memories for the older woman.

To be honest, Captain Marvel actually ate quite a lot of delicious food in interstellar space.

Judging solely from the taste, the small piece of beef I'm eating right now is only so-so.

But how should I put it?

In any case, Captain Marvel is a native Earthling who grew up eating Earth food.

Some things are etched into your very bones and cannot be changed no matter what.

"I knew you'd like it."

A rare smile appeared on Lu Dan's face, a smile that others would almost never see.

"You may not remember, no, you definitely don't remember, but earth-shattering changes have taken place on Earth."

"When we were investigating Project Pegasus, we passed through a small town called Prague or Bugra, and that's where we came from."

"We're not picky eaters, so we ordered two classic set meals."

While reminiscing about the past in front of Captain Marvel, Lu Dan unconsciously brought the two closer together, and casually enjoyed the food with the old lady.

"No way?"

Captain Marvel looked around, "Could this be...?"

"No, no, no, this is certainly not that small town, but the restaurants are still the same restaurants; they're a chain."

"However, more than a decade has passed, and the decorating style has changed quite a bit."

"In fact, apart from the signboard, almost everything else has changed."

The braised egg was explained to Captain Marvel.

"Yeah?"

Captain Marvel smiled too.

that's it.

The woman and Lu Dan enjoyed their meal together, chatting about all sorts of things and strengthening their bond.

The atmosphere at the scene was fantastic.

After they had eaten and drunk their fill, Captain Marvel and Lu Dan almost completely lost the sense of estrangement they had felt after not seeing each other for more than a decade.

The two became familiar with each other again.

They even rediscovered the feeling of fighting side-by-side against the Kree.

"Alright, Fury."

After the meal, Lu Dan personally took Captain Marvel for a walk around the surrounding streets.

After all, the earth has indeed undergone tremendous changes in just over a decade.

It's very different now than when Captain Marvel left.

After the two had walked for most of the street, Captain Marvel spoke first.

"We've eaten, and our minds are at ease. Let's leave the prelude here."

Nick Fury, who was standing next to the old lady, straightened his expression and began to talk to Captain Marvel about serious matters.

"They are Skrulls."

"They may now be a problem for the planet."

"At the very least, it's a huge time bomb."

Braised Eggs got straight to the point without any preamble.

"Skrugs?"

Captain Marvel raised an eyebrow, her face immediately showing surprise and astonishment.

When she left Earth, she repeatedly told Lu Dan that he could only call her in emergencies.

When Captain Marvel received the braised egg signal, she thought something terrible had happened on Earth.

As a result, this is it?

And what problems could the Skrulls possibly have?

Their homeland had been destroyed. It was Ludan who, along with her, helped these poor people escape the clutches of the Kree.

Strictly speaking, the Skrulls were their friends.

"I understand, Danfoss, but things have changed."

Meeting Captain Marvel's solemn yet questioning gaze, Lu Dan began to explain in detail.

She told Captain Marvel about the current situation of the Skrulls on Earth.

After hearing this, Captain Marvel frowned slightly and became even more dismissive.

That's it?

Although things are indeed a bit troublesome, what do you mean by an emergency?

My dear friend, you can't just call me all this way because you're having such a small problem. I'm usually very busy!

In the interstellar world, countless races face extinction, and countless homes face destruction.

There are countless places that need her even more!

"I think you should understand that our planet can't even accommodate two skin colors, let alone two races."

"You may not realize it yet, but the Skrull problem is a big problem."

"A major problem that could threaten the survival of the entire planet."

Seeing Captain Marvel's expression, Lu Dan knew what the old lady was thinking, so he solemnly explained to her again.

"Fury, that's an exaggeration."

"Even if those hundreds of thousands of Skrulls waged war against Earth, it would be impossible for them to accomplish this."

Captain Marvel couldn't help but shake her head, completely disagreeing with Lu Dan's opinion.

Nick Fury is completely exaggerating.

Even if the Skrulls were a more powerful race than humans, and the Skrull civilization was more advanced than Earth's, there are still billions of people on Earth.

With such a large difference in numbers between the two sides, even if the Skrulls had extraordinary abilities, they simply couldn't accomplish what Lu Dan described.

not to mention.

Based on Captain Marvel's understanding of the Skrulls, this race is not the kind that is keen on colonization and violence.

They wouldn't do such a thing.

"In fact, they can absolutely do it."

"And they've already started preparations."

"Danfoss, you know me. I wouldn't use such a trump card like yours on something like this unless it was absolutely necessary; that would be a huge waste."

Seeing Nick Fury's confident expression, Captain Marvel fell into deep thought.

Lu Dan is right; the other party couldn't possibly be so reckless.

So it seems things aren't as simple as I thought.

There must be something crucial that I haven't figured out yet.

So Captain Marvel didn't say anything more, but stared at Nick Fury with a serious expression, waiting for him to continue.

"I have reliable intelligence that these Skrulls are planning, or are planning, an operation called the 'Secret Invasion'."

"They used their unique skills to infiltrate some of our high-ranking military and political officials."

"Attempting to launch nuclear missiles and instigate nuclear war to annihilate humanity and occupy this planet."

Nick Fury then told Captain Marvel all the information about the secret invasion and the Skrulls' incredible ability to withstand nuclear radiation.

Captain Marvel's expression then became serious.

If what Lu Dan said is true, then this is indeed a rather urgent matter.

However, at the same time, Captain Marvel also had new questions.

"If you really have this evidence, why don't you expose them to the government?"

"Even if the Skrulls can perfectly disguise themselves, they can't possibly stand up to the machinery of the state."

Captain Marvel looked at the braised egg with a sharp eye and asked.

"For some unavoidable reasons, I cannot disclose the evidence I possess to anyone else, not even you."

Nick Fury said helplessly.

Even now, Captain Marvel still can't understand why she called her here.

That means Captain Marvel is not the owner of the diary!

Therefore, Lu Dan had no way of revealing his source of information to Captain Marvel.

"So, you mean, for something this important, you want me to just listen to your words and then take action?"

Captain Marvel was speechless. Although our relationship is good, it's not that good.

Even if we have a very good relationship, it's impossible to only listen to your side of the story on such an important matter, right?

We're not children anymore; we're adults.

"First of all, although it sounds a bit extreme, it does seem to be the case."

"The only thing I can tell you is roughly how I got my information, but I'm afraid you might not believe it."

"Again, Danfoss, the Skrulls are not a result of my own actions, but a result of our collective efforts."

"You can't just wash your hands of it and ignore it!"

"You also bear responsibility in this matter."

Nick Fury's one eye widened slightly, and he launched into a long speech to Captain Marvel.

However, it must be said that it makes a lot of sense.

While Lu Dan was certainly unethical in his dealings with the Slugs, Captain Marvel wasn't much better.

"Okay, although what you said isn't very pleasant to hear, it leaves me speechless."

Captain Marvel paused for a moment, then helplessly shrugged.

Whether it stemmed from anger at being deceived by Yon Logue, his own nature, or the influence of Mar-Will, he was driven by a deep sense of rage.

It was the old lady's own will that she helped the Skrulls in the first place.

And that's exactly what she did.

As a result of that operation, hundreds of thousands of Skrulls are now hiding on Earth.

Lu Dan is right, this is indeed Grandma Amazing's fault, and she can't get rid of it.

"However, I still want to hear how you obtained your information."

"Believe me, my knowledge and experience far exceed your imagination, so things that seem unbelievable to you may not be so big of a deal."

However, after a pause, Captain Marvel looked at the braised egg again and said.

Lu Dan then told Captain Marvel about his magical, unspeakable diary.

"So, it was that 'magical thing'—protected by a mysterious power that prevents you from revealing it to anyone, yet capable of foreseeing the future—that told you about the Skrulls' plans?"

But Captain Marvel soon realized she had overestimated herself; she still couldn't believe what the braised egg had revealed.

Even for her, this thing was utterly ridiculous.

"Danfoss, from the moment I obtained it, all the information it contained has been proven to be correct."

"Not a single mistake has occurred."

"I know this may seem unbelievable to you, and it's only natural that you don't believe me."

"But I still beg you, find a planet for the Skrulls and make them move away from Earth as soon as possible."

"That was also your promise back then, and I think you've always been a person who keeps promises, haven't you?"

Nick Fury then began to persuade Captain Marvel from various angles.

Captain Marvel, on the other hand, fell into deep thought and began to seriously consider the matter.

The request for braised eggs was one reason, but more importantly, the auntie was not one to easily shirk responsibility.

"I will help you find a home!"

These are the words that Granny Marvel herself said to Talos, because they were the last wish of Granny Marvel's mentor, Mar-Vell.

That's right, Captain Marvel, like Nick Fury, made a promise to the Skrulls!

But like Nick Fury, he long ago forgot all about his promise.

"Perhaps you could report this to the Heavenly Sword Bureau, though I don't know if it falls under their jurisdiction."

Nick Fury's voice rang in her ears again, immediately piquing Captain Marvel's curiosity.

"The Heavenly Sword Bureau? Interesting. Was this also revealed to you by that 'mysterious thing'?"

Captain Marvel finally began to have more faith in the precognitive ability Nick Fury had mentioned.

The organization Tianjian Bureau did indeed contact her and even tried to recruit her.

However, since the organization was still in the planning stage, the older woman didn't take it seriously at all.

This is something that Lu Dan clearly cannot know.

"certainly."

Nick Fury grinned mysteriously.

"Really? What else did 'it' reveal to you?" Captain Marvel asked again, quite curiously.

"In the future, I will lead the Heavenly Sword Bureau."

"Yeah!"

Grandma Amazing thought Nick Fury was joking and couldn't help but burst out laughing.

The two then continued chatting and laughing as if nothing had happened.

No one brought up the topic of the Skrulls again.

However, Lu Dan knew that he had already achieved his goal.

Whatever Captain Marvel's motives, she has decided to get involved and truly help the Skrulls find their home.

Even if it doesn't necessarily succeed, it's still a good thing, isn't it?

"By the way, Danfoss."

After chatting for a while, Lu Dan started asking Captain Marvel some more serious questions.

What important business is it?

It's naturally about things in interstellar space.

What are all these things like Purple Sweet Potato Spirit, Titan, Sakaar, the Grandmaster, Volmir, the Celestials, and so on?

These were all key pieces of information spoiled in the diary, leaving Captain Marvel completely bewildered.

Some of the information was even unknown to Captain Marvel.

Seeing Nick Fury's serious expression, the older woman naturally didn't think that the braised egg was joking with her.

The other party is serious!

Of course, Captain Marvel also knew some of this information.

That's why Captain Marvel was even more surprised.

So it seems that what Nick Fury mentioned—something that can't be told to others but can reveal the future—might not be unfounded.

Captain Marvel, who had previously been skeptical of the diary, now found herself placing more trust in it.
