Batman lowered his head, and the Superman of the parallel universe watched the scene thoughtfully.

Diana walked up to Xiao Han and asked softly, "Why do you want to help him? It seems like it will cost a lot."

Xiao Han looked at the two people hugging each other and shrugged: "A good boss always has to give employees some benefits, right?"

Chapter 188 Earth Crisis

616 main universe

The Illuminati's secret meeting room.

Under the dim light, the heroes sitting around the long table were silent.

Black Panther T'Challa leaned back in his chair, stroking his wristband with his fingers, but his thoughts drifted back to the Wakanda Palace many years ago.

"T'Challa."

His father's face appeared before him.

"A king's duty is not power, but protection."

The young boy held his head high and made a firm promise, "I will protect everyone in Wakanda."

And now...

He slowly closed his eyes.

Just a few hours ago, they pressed that button again, once again causing the Earth of a parallel universe to be reduced to nothingness in annihilation.

In order to save their own world, they slaughtered billions of lives in another world.

"We destroyed another universe."

Tony Stark's voice broke the silence.

His armor and helmet were placed on the table, his eyes were bloodshot, and he held a cup of cold coffee in his hand.

No one responded.

Doctor Strange was silent, as if he was thinking about something.

“But we saved our universe.

“This isn’t a multiple-choice question.”

Mr. Fantastic Reed Richards' voice was dry and he felt anxious inside.

He glanced at everyone and sighed inwardly.

"If we don't do this, both universes will be destroyed." Namor was much more resolute.

"What's the point of saying this? We already crossed that line a long time ago."

Black Bolt sat in silence, only his slightly trembling eyelashes betraying his emotions.

Beast Hank McCoy pushed up his glasses and said, "We need more effective methods instead of using the most extreme means every time."

"What's your method?" Tony suddenly looked up and his voice was hoarse.

"Reid, how many times have you calculated this? Are there any other options?"

Mr. Fantastic's body stiffened for a moment: "No, at least not yet."

The conference room fell into silence again.

T'Challa slowly stood up and looked at everyone.

"Let's go."

His voice was so soft that everyone looked up at him.

"We should get to work."

Tony stared at him for a few seconds, then suddenly sneered.

"What a good king, T'Challa."

He stood up, and the armor parts automatically flew towards his body. "Put it down as soon as I say so."

"if not?"

Black Panther's voice suddenly rose. "Are you going to sit here and repent until the universe is destroyed?"

He looked around at everyone, "We made our choice, and we paid the price. But if we had to do it again."

He paused. "I will still press that button. As a king, I have to do it."

Doctor Strange was the first to stand up, his magic cloak fluttering silently.

"He's right. The crisis could come again at any time. We have no right to be depressed."

One by one, the heroes stood up.

Tony took one last look at the empty conference room, and the armor mask closed silently.

"Let's go to the lab and I'll check the data again."

They filed out of the conference room, T'Challa last.

He put his hand on the door frame and looked back at the round table that decided the life and death of countless people.

"For Wakanda."

He said softly, not knowing whether he was trying to convince others or himself.

He also didn't know that when a hero becomes a butcher, when salvation turns into killing, and when this road of no return ends.

What awaits them is salvation or complete depravity?

And in the universe that they destroyed, is there another Illuminati that is making the same choice?

Earth—universe

Conference room at S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters.

The blue light of the holographic projection shone on everyone's solemn face.

Tony Stark stood in front of the main console with a holographic projection behind him.

He glanced across the conference room, all of whom were members of the Avengers.

Adam Bernard and Dr. Banner were talking, Black Widow was looking at the tablet boredly, and Hawkeye's eyes were always locked on the projection.

The young Spider-Man Peter Parker sat upright, his eyes wide under the mask.

Opposite them, the members of the former high school team had different expressions.

The Princess of Power was waiting earnestly for the meeting to begin, while Speed ​​Demon and Nightingale were chatting about recent events.

The new mutant Colossus was chatting with Logan about some recent events at the Mutant Academy.

Tony's thoughts drifted back to a few months ago, to the war to eliminate the Skrulls, in which Nick Fury died.

However, Xiao Han pushed him into this position in front of everyone.

At that time, S.H.I.E.L.D. was still in its development stage, and the Avengers team consisted of only a few people.

And now…….

"Sir?" Jarvis' voice brought him back to reality.

"let's start."

Tony took a deep breath, and the holographic projection immediately switched to a surveillance video.

In the picture, a suburban forest was shrouded in a strange red light, and the illuminated area disappeared directly from sight, as if it was absorbed.

Then, the five-man team led by Coulson approached the border cautiously, and their detection equipment frantically sounded alarms.

"We initially thought it was remnant Hydra technology." Tony's voice echoed in the conference room.

"But the energy readings don't match any known technology at all."

In the projection, Coulson turned around and said something to the communicator, then resolutely stepped into the red light range.

The moment his figure came into contact with the light, it disappeared as if erased by an eraser.

The rest of the team members rushed forward in panic, but they also disappeared the moment they touched the red light.

The video suddenly stopped.

"Are they dead?" Wolverine frowned.

"No," Tony shook his head.

"Three minutes later, they emerged from the red light."

The projection switches to a video of Coulson's team's briefing.

In the picture, the agents' faces were pale.

"It's still Earth inside, but the sky is blood red. The scariest thing is..."

As Tony moved, the image suddenly enlarged, and in the depths of the distorted red light, the outline of a crimson planet loomed.

"They were inside and saw another Earth."

The conference room exploded instantly.

"Parallel universe projection?" Banner stood up suddenly, his pupils contracting violently.

"A cosmic collision?" Adam rubbed his chin.

Spider-Man suddenly raised his hand: "Uh, so it's the end of the world?"

Everyone looked at him, and Peter quickly shrank his neck.

"forget it."

Tony's fingers slid quickly across the holographic projection, and a complex data model unfolded in the air.

"Based on the wave analysis and energy spectrum display."

His voice suddenly became unusually heavy. "This is a parallel universe collision."

The conference room fell into silence in an instant, and no one reacted to what was happening.

"To put it simply," Tony zoomed in on the two intertwined Earth models in the projection.

"The Earth in another universe is attracting each other in space. If they get too close, it will be like fireworks."

In the projection, the two planet models began to collide, followed by a burst of dazzling red light.

The image of two earths shattering at the same time in the projection made Peter Parker gasp.

Banner frowned again, "Both universes will be destroyed?"

Tony nodded heavily. "Like two trains heading in opposite directions."

Adam thought about countless possibilities. "This kind of event should only happen once in a million years. Why is this happening?"

"Unless someone is manipulating it."

A hoarse voice suddenly sounded, and everyone looked and saw that it was Steel Warrior who was speaking.

"If two universes collided for no apparent reason, it could only be human manipulation."

The Divine Princess nodded. They were all very familiar with this kind of thing. "The scene Xiao Han showed me last time showed this kind of thing. In the end, Hyperion forcibly separated the two universes on his own."

"But looking at the situation now, it doesn't seem like brute force can do it."

Wolverine took a drag on his cigar: "So it really is the end of the world?"

The afternoon sun shines through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the Long Island villa.

Wanda was lazily leaning on the sofa, tapping her fingers lightly, and quickly conjured up several small red light balls to tease Dijiang.

The little guy flapped his wings and chirped happily.
