Marvel: I became an ancestor by sacrificing offerings

For the next month or so, Peter's schedule was packed.

Aside from developing relationships with Gwen, Felicia, Sif, Natasha, Daisy, and others, he spent the rest of his time at the construction site.

Yes, a construction site.

An unprecedented transformation is underway in the underground of New York City.

Peter and Tony used the air-raid shelters left over from the Cold War as the basic framework for the renovation, and officially began the construction of the New York underground project.

Peter's earth magic was practically a cheat code in this kind of project—others had to use tunnel boring machines to dig tunnels, which consumed a lot of manpower and resources.

But for him, it was just a matter of saying "LAND PLEASE~"!

Using magic to directly push the earth, a passage was instantly completed wherever it passed. Workers then laid reinforced steel beams along the way, increasing efficiency many times over.

Tony was in charge of technical design and equipment installation, while Peter was in charge of civil engineering and energy core deployment.

The two have achieved an extremely high level of teamwork.

How well do they understand each other?

The answer is that even Pepper Potts and Gwen Strange would feel a little envious.

With this tacit understanding and almost supernatural magic,

In less than a month, the level two and level three underground defense works were completed.

The secondary defense system consists of 53 underground safe houses spread across the five boroughs of New York City.

These safe houses are all independently powered by arc reactors and have sufficient defensive capabilities to withstand super-high yield explosives.

Each safe house is equipped with a complete ventilation system, an emergency medical station, and supplies to last at least 72 hours.

In theory, these safe houses are enough to accommodate all eight million residents of New York City.

When the Arc Reactor's defenses are insufficient, it will activate three Level 3 Safe Houses infused with a large amount of vibranium.

Manhattan, one.

Queens, one.

Brooklyn, one.

Each Level 3 safe house can accommodate 1.5 million people.

In other words, in the most extreme scenario, these three vibranium fortresses alone could save nearly half of New York's population.

"This is the limit of what we can do."

On the day of completion and acceptance, Tony stood in the control room of the Brooklyn Level 3 safe house, and a rare look of exhaustion appeared on his face.

"The rest depends on whether Freddy's dynamic scheduling can keep up when things actually happen."

The Freddy that Tony mentioned is an auxiliary AI that he developed specifically for this defense system.

Once the battle begins, Freddy will calculate the battlefield situation in real time, determine which areas are the core combat zones, and then automatically open the corresponding safe house passages to guide citizens from the level 2 safe house to the level 3 safe house.

Simply put, it means—don't let ordinary people wander around aimlessly; let them go wherever they need to go.

"Thanks for your hard work, Tony."

"Don't give me that crap," Tony mumbled through a cheeseburger bite. "I just hope I never have to use any of this stuff."

Peter didn't respond.

He certainly didn't want to use these things.

But he had a feeling that these things would soon come in handy.

……

Intuition can sometimes be so accurate that it makes you want to curse.

Three days after the fortifications were completed, Peter received a call from Hill.

"Director, Mr. Saul has just arrived at headquarters and says he has something important to discuss with you in person."

Upon hearing this, Peter did not hesitate at all, immediately took out the Eye of Aurora, and teleported to the headquarters of S.H.I.E.L.D.

Saul had been waiting in the conference room for a long time.

"What happened?" Peter asked casually after landing.

After taking a deep breath, Thor answered directly:

“Heimdall saw it.”

"What do you see?"

"Five warships."

Thor solemnly held up five fingers:

"Five Chitauri warships are heading towards Earth."

"Moreover, they deliberately bypassed the star system where Asgard is located, because of the cosmic peace treaty that Father signed back then... We Asgard cannot interfere in this battle!"

We can only give you this information in advance; the rest depends on yourselves to see if you can withstand their attack!

Chapter 280 I was watching from behind

As Hill listened to Thor's story, her delicate eyebrows unconsciously furrowed into a deep frown.

"Mr. Thor, could you please tell me in detail what exactly this Chitauri is all about?"

Saul stood with his arms crossed, leaning against the conference table, his expression unusually serious.

"I only recently learned about the existence of this group from my father."

The Chitauri are one of the largest predator races in the universe, and they don't even belong to the same galaxy as us.

According to my father, they claim to be the immune system of the universe, attacking and destroying all civilizations.

Essentially, they are a bunch of warmongers who are expanding everywhere!

Their individual combat strength is not top-notch, but they have the advantage of large numbers, extremely high discipline, and technological level far exceeding that of Earth.

As for further information, even I don't know. They are beings far beyond the power of the Nine Realms!

My father never allowed me to leave the Nine Realms, so even I can't bring you any more information.

in addition……"

At this point, a look of guilt appeared on Thor's heroic face:

“I’m sorry, Peter, my father has strictly forbidden me from getting involved in this operation, so I can’t help this time.”

Upon hearing this, Hill couldn't help but roll her eyes inwardly.

I thought it was some important person.

It turns out he's a daddy's boy?

Bah, compared to Peter, he's nothing!

Unlike Hill, who was secretly criticizing Thor in his heart, Peter's attention was entirely focused on the Chitauri whale ship.

The Chitauri.

Five whale ships.

It flew over.

This information made him keenly aware of the discrepancies between the current situation and the original plot.

In the original story, Loki first used the Tesseract to open the wormhole, allowing the Chitauri army to continuously pour out of it.

And don't be fooled by how exciting the Battle of New York was.

But in reality, only one mothership was deployed.

But now?

It's unclear whether it's because Loki couldn't steal the Tesseract because it was in his possession.

Thanos's forces chose the most primitive method of interstellar travel.

Moreover, it's likely that Loki has already revealed his true strength to Thanos.

So Thanos used a total of five motherships this time.

This is getting a bit troublesome!

In the original story, Tony apparently only disabled one mothership by dropping a nuclear bomb.

This time, five ships actually came at once.

However... it's not like there's no chance at all!

Although in the original comics only one mothership was deployed, it still caused the Avengers to fight to the death.

But isn't the situation different now?

Today, New York City, because of its own circumstances, has far more superheroes than just a handful of Avengers.

Especially after being strengthened by themselves, Gwen, Felicia, Natasha, and the others each possess the strength to single-handedly defeat all the Avengers except Thor in the original comics.

Thinking of this, Peter's lips unconsciously curled up slightly.

To be honest, he was actually looking forward to it.

Fortunately, the underground fortifications are now basically complete, but no matter how large the scale of the war, it will not affect the lives of ordinary citizens.

In this situation, playing a different kind of game in New York would be a good training exercise.

As for whether annihilating this force would prematurely anger Thanos...

Peter thought about it for a moment and realized that this was nothing to worry about.

First of all, Odin is still alive. Thanos probably wouldn't dare to personally lead his army into the solar system to confront Odin head-on.

Additionally, at this point in the movie, Thanos appears to have only the Mind Stone in his possession.

The Tesseract is now in my possession, while the Time Stone is in the hands of the Ancient One.

Other gems are also scattered throughout the universe.
