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

Chapter 212 The full cooperation between Mr. Fantastic and Iron Man, and the shock from the Eternals.

However, he was still somewhat dissatisfied with the braised eggs.

After a moment's hesitation, the other party made another request to Thor: "That's good, but is there an even simpler way? One that allows us to communicate with you directly."

"What method are you referring to?"

Thor took a gulp of the beer that the braised egg vendor had prepared for him, his eyes lighting up slightly. "This stuff is really good! Can I take some for my father to try?"

"sure."

"You can take as much as you want."

Nick Fury readily agreed, and then continued with the main topic, "Don't you Asgard have any magic or technology for communication?"

"How do you usually communicate with other planets?"

Thor was stumped by Nick Fury's question, and after thinking for a while, he shook his head.

"I'm not entirely sure. How would I know such a trivial matter? I am the prince of Asgard, the son of Odin!"

Nick Fury: "..."

If someone else said this to Nick Fury, Lu Dan would definitely think that the other person was pretending to be stupid or deliberately dodging the question.

But Chris Hemsworth?

Okay, I believe it's true.

After all, Thor, the famous god of thunder in mythology, doesn't seem to be very smart.

"Okay, let's skip this section for now."

Nick Fury then gave up.

In any case, being able to proactively contact Asgard is a huge step forward.

One shouldn't be too greedy, right?

"If the dark elves have indeed been awakened, and I informed you in time, what do you plan to do?"

"Will you, Asgard, send an army to destroy them?"

Nick Fury solemnly confirmed with Thor.

"certainly."

Thor nodded without hesitation. "If we discover the Dark Elf fleet, I will lead the warriors of Asgard to annihilate them immediately."

Lu Dan nodded in satisfaction, feeling a sense of confidence.

In any case, on the issue of the Dark Elves, they have formed a united front with Asgard.

"Oh, right, Thor."

After a pause, Nick Fury remembered something else very important and asked Thor to confirm, "Do you know about the conjunction of the nine stars?"

The convergence of nine stars is still a somewhat "advanced" topic for Earth's civilization.

After receiving orders from Nick Fury, Coulson assembled a research team to study the convergence of the nine stars.

As expected, no progress was made.

There are two main reasons.

First, the diary's description of the convergence of the nine stars is too vague and not precise.

Initial feedback from Coulson's team indicates that the astronomical phenomenon of "nine planets converging" does indeed exist.

The nine planets do indeed move to the same side of the sun every so often.

They converge in a fan-shaped area with a small angle.

Some of the stars might even align in a straight line!

But the key issue is that the different angles of that sector result in different numbers of stars forming a straight line, leading to vastly different outcomes!

It could be as rare as once every thirty years or even once every thousand years!

Without more accurate parameters, it is impossible to make further predictions.

The second point is the current limitations of astronomy.

Even with sufficiently precise parameters, the results calculated by astronomers can still have significant deviations.

That's why Nick Fury asked Thor this question.

As the dominant power in the Nine Realms, Asgard, including Thor and the warriors of the palace, all wear armor and wield cold weapons, giving it a somewhat "retro" feel.

But in any case, it is an interstellar civilization, so it must be more advanced than Earth, right?

"Nine stars converge, huh? Then you've come to the right person."

Thor laughed, feeling a sense of intellectual superiority. "Do you know the relationship between the Nine Realms and the World Tree? Do you want me to explain it to you from the beginning?"

"I'm all ears!"

Seeing Thor's smug and boastful look, how could Lu Dan bear to slap Hammer Bro in the face?

He nodded immediately.

Moreover, Nick Fury was genuinely curious about things like the World Tree.

That must be different from the World Tree in myths and legends.

Thor then cleared his throat and began to explain the World Tree to Lu Dan.

After explaining all the relevant common knowledge, he then explained the concept of the nine stars converging to Nick Fury.

Are the nine celestial bodies aligned in a straight line?

Nick Fury frowned slightly; he had specifically researched this, and it was one of the most difficult astronomical phenomena to observe.

It was none other than the legendary "Nine Stars Alignment".

This happens only once every six thousand years!

When was the last time the nine planets aligned?

1149 years!

So what about next time?

I'm sorry, this is beyond the scope of the subject; astronomers cannot give a relatively accurate prediction.

So what about Thor?

"Less than a year left!"

However, Chris Hemsworth gave a more accurate answer.

Less than a year?

It's so urgent!

Even someone as skilled as Nick Fury, the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., felt a sense of pressure.

Regardless, the Dark Elves did indeed invade Asgard and killed the Queen of the Gods, a terrifying race!

It also brought the threat of plunging the entire Nine Realms into darkness.

"Thor, I will use all available resources to keep a close watch on Jane and monitor any suspicious activity."

"But at the same time, I hope Asgard is also prepared."

After a moment of silence, Lu Dan solemnly addressed Thor.

"Asgard is always ready."

Thor's expression also turned serious.

Their regard for the Dark Elves is absolutely no less than Nick Fury's, and may even be far greater!

Next, the two sides discussed the relevant details and reached a comprehensive strategic cooperation agreement to combat the Dark Elves.

Both sides gained a lot.

"Alright, Nick, I should go back now."

"Remember to let me know if there's any movement!"

So Thor didn't linger on Earth any longer.

After saying goodbye to Nick Fury, he left.

And Nick Fury?

He then began pacing back and forth with his hands behind his back, a thoughtful expression on his face.

In less than a year, the Dark Elves, who pose a threat to the entire Nine Realms, will be resurrected!

This is undoubtedly the most urgent and important thing facing Ludan.

"The development of Vision needs to be accelerated!"

After some thought, Lu Dan couldn't help but mutter these words.

According to the diary, Malekith, the leader of the dark elves, was far too powerful.

If it hadn't been stripped of its Aether particles, even Thor wouldn't have been a match for it.

Even if the other party is eventually crushed to death by a spaceship, and is then mocked by Satan.

Regardless, this was someone who had attacked Asgard and killed the Queen of the Gods!

How could Nick Fury dare to be careless in the slightest?

Even though he has just successfully reached a strategic cooperation with Asgard, Asgard is ultimately just an ally, not a force of Earth itself!

The Earth's own power is still too weak.

Lu Dan is really eager to bring Vision to life.

But it's a pity.

Judging from Tony's feedback, Vision's progress is consistently unsatisfactory.

"It seems I need to have a serious talk with Tony."

"It's time to bring in some more capable people."

Lu Dan secretly made this decision.

No, or rather, this decision became more resolute than ever before.

Actually, when Nick Fury realized that things weren't going very well with Banner and Tony, he had already been thinking about finding some outside help.

But because of Tony's pride, the other party refused without hesitation.

Even if it weren't for the spoilers in the diary, the fact that the two had fought against the same enemy, and that Banner was indeed an expert in organic biology, it would be a different story.

Tony would never agree to let Banner join.

But now, reality no longer allows Tony to be so "reckless".

In this situation, braised eggs came to Tony once again.

The playboy was told the harsh and bloody reality.

"Less than a year?"

"Is Thor believable? He's just a muscle-bound guy with no brains, we all know that, right?"

After a moment's thought, Tony began to confirm with Nick Fury.

But deep down, the playboy actually believed it.

Thor would never speak carelessly about something so important.

If Nick Fury hadn't been confirmed, he wouldn't have come to me, would he?

"Stark, are you confident that Vision will be born within a year?"

Lu Dan didn't answer Tony, but instead asked him a very pointed question.

"A year? No!"

Dr. Banner shook his head, answering Tony before he could, "No one can guarantee this. It could take months, a year, or even several years."

"Banner, don't be too pessimistic. I think we can do it."

"With my wisdom, and well, with yours too, we can definitely do it."

Tony displayed his arrogance and confidence as always, but he also revealed his lack of confidence.

"At times like this, we can't place all our hopes on your 'certainty'."

Seeing that the groundwork had been laid, Nick Fury stated his purpose directly: "I want to add one more person in."

"Please, Nick!"

The playboy shrugged, looking completely unconcerned. "Jarvis, me, Banner, look at this 'roster'! Who do you think is even qualified to join?"

"Reed Richards."

The name for the braised egg had already been chosen, and Bo didn't hesitate to utter it.

This is someone whose diary is stamped, someone even smarter than Tony!

Based on actual contact, this person is indeed a super scientist of Tony's caliber.

Mr. Fantastic?

Tony's attitude clearly softened.

Because of a change caused by the flapping of a butterfly's wings, Playboy actually knows Mr. Fantastic in this universe.

They even had a pretty good relationship.

After all, Tony had funded Mr. Fantastic's research in any case.

That's how Tony learned about Mr. Fantastic's abilities.

Even if he never admits it, the playboy actually knows it deep down.

This person is indeed at the same level as me.

Given the tight timeframe, Tony, after some deliberation, finally agreed to Nick Fury's request.

And soon after, he dialed Mr. Fantastic's number and extended an invitation.

The result was, of course, as expected.

Faced with a major scientific research problem that even Tony couldn't solve, and given that the other party had once been his financial backer, Mr. Fantastic was naturally more than willing.

They soon joined the process of creating Vision.

And Mr. Fantastic truly lives up to his reputation as the person the diary has designated as even smarter than Tony.

Both Tony and Dr. Banner could clearly feel that with Mr. Fantastic's arrival, their progress suddenly accelerated considerably.

On the other side.

The Eternals, scattered across the globe, each pursuing different professions and living different lives, have finally all gathered together.

To entertain everyone, Ajax hosted a barbecue party in his yard.

Everyone grilled meat, drank alcohol, and chatted and laughed.

At least on the surface, the atmosphere is still great.

Even in the evening, everyone started learning customs from a tribe they had long forgotten, and they sang and danced around the bonfire.

I had a great time until late at night before finally falling into a deep sleep.

The small houses in Ajax are simply not enough.

Fortunately, the Eternals are no ordinary people; they slept on the sofa or in their cars overnight.

He was still full of energy the next day.

"Everyone, I have gathered you here today because there is something important I need to tell you."

Only after breakfast did Ajak speak to the Eternals with a very serious expression.

Whether it's Icarus, Druid, or King.

All the Eternal people present wore solemn expressions.

Whatever the reason Ajax gathered everyone together, it was clearly not a trivial matter.

"More than five hundred years ago, in Tenochtitlan, we wiped out the last of the mutant race."

"I tell you, our mission is over, I tell you you are free."

"But in fact, that's not the case."

"Our mission is not over."

Facing everyone's gaze, Aijak began to speak in a solemn, even somewhat heavy tone.

"What does this mean? The mutants have made a comeback?"

Jin Ge made a guess on his mind, "I thought we had killed them all."

Not only Jin Ge, but the other Eternals who were unaware of the truth also had almost the same guess.

"No, it has nothing to do with mutants, because mutants have never been our true mission."

Ajak shook his head and corrected Jin Ge's statement with utmost seriousness.

OK.

Gilgamesh shrugged. "Then what is our true mission?"

"It's to ensure the creation of the Celestials!"

Under everyone's gaze, Ajax revealed the whole truth to everyone.

The scene fell completely silent for a moment.

Apart from a few people in the know, every member of the Eternal Clan was shocked by this shocking news.

He was speechless for a long time.

This is the only update today. Also, updates may be unstable these next few days as I'm going back and forth to the hospital. Ugh, headache.
