Marvel's Hogwarts Wizard

Chapter 236 Ebony Maw and Black Dwarf Arrive (Third Update)

Ten minutes later, Jerry landed on the deck of the S.H.I.E.L.D. aircraft carrier on Thestral.

"Good morning, Miss Wizard!"

"Good morning, Agent Hill. Could you tell me what's going on?"

Jerry slowly floated up from Thestral and landed on the ground, then waved his hand to put Thestral into the box.

"The situation is complicated. Let Director Fury tell you the details. He's already waiting for you in the command center of the space carrier!"

Hill seemed to realize something, and his expression darkened slightly, but he quickly returned to normal.

Jerry nodded and followed Hill toward the space carrier's command center.

Compared to the last time they came, there were twice as many S.H.I.E.L.D. agents on the mothership this time, and busy S.H.I.E.L.D. agents could be seen everywhere.

They have armed guards as well as staff operating various mechanical and electronic devices.

After passing through several mechanical doors that required pupil verification, Jerry followed Hill into the mothership's command center.

Inside the command center, one-eyed Nick Fury stood with his hands behind his back on the highest command platform, looking at the three monitors that constantly displayed various data.

Upon seeing Jerry appear in his wizard robes, he smiled and extended his hand to greet him.

"Miss Wizard, thank you for coming. You seem to have grown quite a bit taller since last time!"

"It's normal to grow taller; after all, I'm in the stage of physical development. Now, can you tell me why Coulson died, and what exactly happened?"

Jerry and Fury shook hands and got straight to the point.

As Fury shook hands with Jerry, he seemed to notice something, paused slightly, then quickly recovered and smiled:

"You can take a look at this first!"

As he spoke, he handed Jerry the tablet computer that had been prepared on the table in front of him.

"The Cosmic Cube was found in 1942 in a church in Tünsberg, Norway, by Hydra, a mysterious scientific organization led by Red Skull Schmidt, and was later used to develop powerful weapons."

After the video introduction about the Cosmic Cube finished playing on the tablet, Fury continued without waiting for Jerry to ask any questions:

"Ever since S.H.I.E.L.D. retrieved the Tesseract from the sea, we've been studying it, hoping to harness its energy. However, an accident occurred three days ago!"

"It seems this accident led to Coulson's death, and judging from your demeanor, there appear to be unresolved issues?"

Jerry interjected.

He could actually understand the research into the Tesseract, since Hydra had acquired a large number of ultra-modern weapons through the Tesseract.

If it were him, he wouldn't leave such a powerful treasure unused, letting it gather dust in the warehouse.

However, the Cosmic Cube is far beyond Earth's technological level, and not only humans, but also various forces in the universe are eyeing it, which is why we are in trouble now.

"Yes, three days ago, the energy of the Cosmic Cube suddenly surged, and then a spatial gate opened, revealing these two powerful alien life forms!"

Nick Fury swiped his finger across the tablet, and another video immediately played.

The video shows two aliens who are clearly not from Earth.

One of them was about two meters tall, thin, and wearing a high-tech battle suit. He floated in the air on a pile of rubble. Although his appearance was ugly, he gave people a very elegant feeling.

However, his strength was terrifying. With a slight wave of his arm, he could disintegrate countless walls and control them to smash the elite S.H.I.E.L.D. agents who were shooting at him into mincemeat.

Jerry's telekinetic magic can control the movement and attack of objects, but it's only around a few hundred pounds at most. However, the alien in the video can make objects weighing thousands or tens of thousands of pounds fly with a wave of his hand, and he does it all with ease.

Moreover, he was holding a weapon that looked like a scepter in his right hand. Jerry immediately recognized it as the Mind Scepter that Thanos had given to Loki during the Avengers arc, which could be used to control people's minds.

If this tall, thin alien is a ranged attacker, then the other one next to him is definitely a melee fighter.

Standing at about four or five meters tall, his physique was in no way inferior to the Hulk and Abomination that Jerry had seen before. He wore a thick alien armor and held a huge mechanical pickaxe in his hand.

His mechanical pickaxe can transform into different forms, making S.H.I.E.L.D.'s elite agents seem as fragile as ants in his presence.

In the video, the two aliens worked together seamlessly, leaving the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents almost helpless. Coulson, who was leading the agents in the battle, was also pierced through the body by the steel bars in the wall controlled by the tall alien, and fell to the ground. He was eventually carried away by several agents at great personal risk.

It seems there's no hope of saving them now.

"The tall one called himself Ebony Maw, and the strong one called himself Black Dwarf. They said they were Thanos's sons, sent by Thanos to conquer Earth and take the Space Stone, and that we should surrender."

Nick Fury's face was now completely solemn.

After meeting Captain Marvel more than a decade ago, he learned that extraterrestrial civilizations existed beyond Earth. However, if Captain Marvel hadn't single-handedly repelled the Kree army, Earth might have been destroyed back then.

That's why he's been so keen on forming the Avengers, hoping to create a group of powerful beings like Captain Marvel, so that aliens will know that Earth isn't to be trifled with.

This is one of the reasons why he persisted in studying the Cosmic Cube despite knowing it was dangerous.

Because Captain Marvel was accidentally created during the research of the Tesseract in Project Pegasus, her power further demonstrates the value of the Tesseract.

Unexpectedly, before the Cosmic Cube team had even figured out anything significant, they had already attracted powerful aliens to Earth.

"It seems you didn't surrender as ordered, but suffered heavy losses. Did they steal the Cosmic Cube too?"

Jerry put down his tablet, a slightly serious expression on his face.

These two aliens, who claim to be Thanos's sons, have demonstrated far greater power than Loki, who is known for his stabbings in the backs.

Moreover, they now possess the Mind Scepter and the Cosmic Cube. If they were to open a portal and unleash the Chitauri army, they would be a formidable opponent.

Fortunately, at least Thanos didn't bring his entire cosmic army to Earth.

The current situation is still within the range that he can handle according to his plan.

Nick Fury sighed upon hearing this:

"They did steal the Cosmic Cube. We were no match for them at the time. Most of the agents in the base were killed in action. Only Hill, Barton, and I, along with some of the remaining agents, managed to protect Eric and several other important researchers as they escaped."

The last chapter for today has been completed, although it's a bit late. The chapter for tomorrow morning will probably also be delayed a little.
