That's about it for the people who can play a role in space warfare. Anything below that would be considered a reserve of personnel and cannot be included in the calculation.

As for the fact that most legends are in a weakened state, it is of course because their evolution is incomplete. It is as if they have only made a shell in various scripts, and it will take a long time to fully recover before the inner workings can be completely filled.

Given the three current global energy levels that have been raised within the solar system, it is estimated that it would take more than fifty years for a newly emerging legend to recover to his full potential entirely on his own.

Looking at the paper in front of him covered with names, Yang Qiu paused twice with his pen. He still had to speed things up with the script. If he didn't speed things up, it would be a laughing stock if a large part of the Human Alliance couldn't fight or could only barely fight when Thanos arrived with his army.

However, simultaneously raising the energy level of the entire world is not so easy. Of the three times this has happened so far, the first two were due to the emergence of legends that led to an increase in Earth's energy activity, while this time it is purely because too much time has passed.

Solidified energy from outside the solar system entered the solar system through multiverse portals, war stars, and various legends. It was then blocked by the barrier formed by the solar wind, ultimately leading to an increase in the environmental energy concentration within the entire solar wind.

The sun...yes...the sun!

Yang Qiu seized this fleeting inspiration and turned his gaze to the sun hanging in the sky.

The sun is just an ordinary star, insignificant in the universe. However, however insignificant it is, it has a huge energy reserve. More importantly, its strong gravity and continuous nuclear fusion make it the best energy converter.

Only one problem needs to be solved for it to become a panacea for restoring all legends: how to make it convert a certain type of energy in a targeted manner, which involves the issue of controlling the sun's authority.

To be honest, it's not particularly difficult for many legends of the Heavenly Court and the Clock Tower to detonate the sun in a weakened state, but the difficulty of detonating and controlling the other party is not in the same league.

Even a civilization capable of building a Dyson sphere would not easily control a star, since the theory of a Dyson sphere is merely to better collect the energy emitted by a star into the universe.

Therefore, since the technological route is not feasible for the time being, the only option left is the mythological route.

Chapter 286 More Effort, More Hope

Earth, a villa in the suburbs of New York, is where Stark and the others have been resting during this time. It is also a house that Tony gave them directly.

While Tony's money-making abilities are useless on the mystical side, they remain just as powerful on the surface world.

Stark sat on the sofa with a glass of red wine in his hand, his legs crossed, in front of him a collection of news information compiled from Stark Industries' internal systems.

Rogers loosened his muscles and began his daily exercise, starting with a 10-kilometer run as a warm-up.

Barton helped Natasha do rehabilitation exercises. Her soul had been in the land of death for so long, and the damage it suffered was enough to make her suffer. Now, Natasha could barely walk on her own.

With a thud, Bruce in his Hulk form and Dr. Banner in his human form came down from the second floor together. The two had just been discussing the problem of the Nebula Nebula's neural network defense structure.

"I have a class this afternoon, so I have to go back now. Call me anytime if you need anything." Dr. Banner walked to the door and waved to Bruce.

Dr. Banner initially came here to learn from Bruce, who had already merged with the Hulk. Although Banner didn't intend to follow this path, Bruce's experience was still instructive for him.

"Okay, have a safe trip, bye-bye." Bruce waved and watched Banner leave.

After everyone had walked away, Bruce turned around and his calf seemed to bump into something. He looked down and saw Rocket Raccoon.

"What's wrong?" Bruce asked, crouching down as his clothes were pulled open.

"Did you ask him when we can take the Infinity Stones back?" Rocket Raccoon asked, scrutinizing Bruce.

“Oh right, I should have asked that.” Bruce laughed as he stood up, carrying the Rocket Raccoon.

Snap! Rocket Raccoon slapped Bruce's finger, then jumped back and landed on the ground.

Then, under Bruce's puzzled gaze, Rocket Raccoon leaped onto the table in a few quick movements, looking at the people around him who were doing their own thing, and flew into a rage.

"What are you doing?! Aren't you going back?! This place is nice, but it's not our home, and there are still many people who have sacrificed their lives waiting for us to rescue them!"

Rocket Raccoon roared, but no one paid any attention to it, and Bruce even went back upstairs.

After a long pause, Stark took a sip of red wine. "So? Are you planning to unfurl a banner in front of the Upper House at the Clock Tower, or put up a big-character poster in China?"

Rocket Raccoon darted over in a flash. "What I mean is, we can't just do nothing! Don't forget, you still have a five-year-old daughter over there. Even if you think the world is great, you still have to bring your wife and kids over!"

"Hoo hoo, according to your logic, hoo hoo, since I don't have a wife and kids, I can save some Pym Particles," Rogers said on the treadmill.

"Captain?!" Rocket Raccoon jumped onto the treadmill screen, staring at Rogers in disbelief, seemingly unable to comprehend how this person could say such a thing.

Rogers smiled at Rocket Raccoon, a smile that sent a chill down Rocket Raccoon's spine.

"Everyone! You can't do this..." Rocket Raccoon spread his hands, wanting to say something but not knowing where to begin.

After obtaining the Soul Stone, Thor disappeared and sent it to Earth. As a result, all the heroes on Earth seemed like completely different people. Rocket Raccoon even wondered if he had inadvertently traveled through time again.
