The Martial God of the Marvel World

Chapter 337 The overall situation is the most important!

The vast majority of superheroes have basically no sense of the overall situation.

Superheroes are obsessed with doing the "right" thing!

When superheroes do things, they only consider their own actions and think about the problem from their own perspective. They only care about whether their actions are "correct". The impact and consequences behind this matter are generally not taken into consideration.

Therefore, when street heroes save people, they do not consider whether they will cause collateral damage to the surrounding residents, nor do they consider whether their actions themselves undermine the legal system. As long as what they do is saving people and is the right thing to do, they can justifiably call themselves "superheroes."

Among many superheroes, Captain America can be said to be one of the few who can see the overall situation. But even Steve Rogers still violated military orders and rushed directly from the rear to the front line to save people.

Superheroes are people with excessive self-awareness, and it is very difficult to ask them to sacrifice themselves for the greater good.

Now they have traveled through time and space to this world and want to save half of the lives in the universe. This is the right thing to do, and everyone is willing to fight and sacrifice for it.

But what is torturing them now is not the enemies attacking them head-on, but their own inner struggles.

Steve exposed what everyone had been hiding in their hearts and avoiding mentioning these days.

If they were in the original universe, facing this kind of evil force, I'm afraid they would have swarmed over and rushed over. It doesn't matter if the enemy is strong, a large number of superheroes will come to support them if they raise their arms. But now they can only sit back and watch everything happen, pretending that they know nothing.

Because... the overall situation is more important!

Saving half of the lives in their own universe is the overall situation, and all their actions in this universe cannot affect this overall situation.

But does a person who watches evil happening right under his nose and remains indifferent still have the qualifications to call himself a superhero?

They cannot speak out when they feel injustice, they cannot uphold justice, they cannot fight against evil... this goes against their principles as human beings!

Before coming, their plan was to complete the mission quickly and quietly without causing too much impact on this world. Their mission, to save half of the people in the universe, was both in the best interests of the whole world and was absolutely correct, so there would be no conflict at all.

But now the problem comes, they encounter what they "should" do, the "right" thing in this world.

But unfortunately, this correctness conflicts with their overall situation. What should they do?
Choose the overall situation?
It seems to be right. After all, for half of the population in the universe, there must be at least several trillion of them, right?
To save so many people, it is reasonable and meritorious to sacrifice some people from the outer universe.
Moreover, it was not them who killed these people; they just stood by and watched without going to save them!

Saving people is a favor, not saving people is your duty!

Others cannot use moral blackmail!

But can they convince themselves?
Even if everyone in the original universe supports their actions, can they really feel at ease?
When they live a happy life with their resurrected relatives and friends in the future, will they still be able to call themselves superheroes with a clear conscience?

Is it the right choice?

Being able to follow through on your beliefs is a remarkable thing.

It is easy to do one right thing, but it is difficult to do the right thing all your life.

If you make the right choice, you can continue to fight against evil forces as you did in the past, never compromise, live up to the honor of the title of superhero, and not violate your usual principles.

But will doing so cause the entire rescue plan to fail?
Who will bear this responsibility then?

Can they live up to their companions who have worked hard and prepared for this plan for many years?

Can they still look the relatives of those who were not resurrected into the eyes?

"Steve, calm down, Steve..." Professor Hulk came over and calmed Captain America, "We must stay rational and not let our emotions control our behavior!"

"I'm very rational, Professor Hulk, I'm just, just a little confused..." Steve frowned and behaved at a loss. It was obvious that he had been tormented by his inner entanglement in these days.

"Think about the responsibility we shoulder. That's half of the lives in the universe. What could be more important than this?" Obviously, the highly educated Professor Hulk is not as stubborn as Steve.

"I know, I know everything, but, but can human life be measured by quantity?" Steve is a good man in the usual sense, but he is too stubborn. Once he gets stuck in a dead end, it is difficult to get out of it.

Professor Hulk grabbed Steve by the shoulders and shook him hard.

"I can tell you, Steve, yes! When the number reaches a certain level, human lives can be measured in numbers!"

"For the sake of the overall situation, we must abandon some things that were previously difficult to give up!"

"Principles of life, beliefs, moral standards, honor, self-esteem, ego... As long as we can complete the task, we must abandon these things!"

"Everything is for the greater good!"

Steve struggled feebly, "I understand what you said, I know everything, but..."

"Watching those evil acts and doing nothing made me feel like I had become part of the 'silent majority'."

"We unconsciously indulge evil, allowing it to do whatever it wants in this world. Every silence is a concession, which reduces the cost of doing evil. Every silence in the face of evil will eventually bring danger closer to us."

"Just like Peter Parker and Dr. Banner, if we had intervened earlier, we wouldn't be in this situation now."

"We've discussed before that there are very few superheroes in this universe, and most people are very cold and value violence over spirituality."

"I've thought about it carefully these days. Although there are things like Ultimate Infinite Qigong that disrupt social order, to a large extent, it may be that there are too many people like us now who are unwilling to stand up."

"Because in this world, the one with the highest martial power is terrifying, so the superhero who stands out first will definitely die first!"

"No one wants to be the first person to raise their arms and light up the darkness. After a long time, all the lights will not light up. After that, people have become accustomed to living in the dark."

"I'm very skeptical now. We won't be able to find many superheroes to help us in this world. Forget about Tony Stark. Although I haven't met Tony in this world, I can tell from the information that he is not a superhero!"

Several people turned to look at Tony standing aside. Among these people, he was the only one who had met their selves in this world.

Tony sighed and said nothing, but his attitude said it all.

"Tony may have agreed to help us now, but if we encounter a powerful enemy, do you think he will fight to the death like our former superhero companions?" Steve became more and more discouraged.

"Now think back to the conditions that the Sorcerer Supreme agreed to Professor Hulk that day. Perhaps the Sorcerer Supreme saw clearly that we would never be able to get the other five Infinity Stones! So she readily agreed to give us the Time Stone in the end."

"I've been wondering these days, what is the big picture? What is the right thing to do?"

“Are we really right in choosing to do this?”

"Will our inaction ultimately lead to the failure of our mission?"

"Why on earth did we travel through time and space and come to this universe?"

“Is it just because the equipment parameters are wrong?”

"Could it be that there are some laws of cause and effect or laws of universe travel that we don't understand at work, requiring us to save this universe first, and then go back to save our universe?"

The more Steve spoke, the more confused he became. He turned his expectant gaze toward the two top scientists on the scene, but his questions this time were beyond the scope. Tony and Professor Hulk looked at each other and their eyes became confused.

"Uh... We can't answer you about this question. After all, we lack relevant data on things like time travel."

“Although it is said that the end of science is philosophy, I personally still believe that the error in this time travel should be a technical problem, not a philosophical problem.”

"Similarly, we can't change the established plan just because of your ideas. After all, the risk is too high. Unfortunately, the error tolerance rate of our plan is very low. We absolutely cannot allow any mistakes to occur!"

Tony came up and hugged Steve, looked into his eyes, and said solemnly:
"Steve, we know you are under a lot of pressure as a team leader, but you have to hold on!"

"Show the same determination you had when you led the Howling Commandos to wipe out the enemy, and clear away all the difficulties that stand in your way!"

"The responsibility we shoulder is too great. No matter what, we must get the six Infinity Stones and send them back."

"at all costs!"

"As long as I can achieve this goal, I will not hesitate to become a super criminal!"

Professor Hulk and Scott also came up and hugged Steve, expressing their thoughts to him.

When Steve fell into a state of confusion, Tony naturally took over the command of the team.

"Steve, we are still following your previous plan. We will gather the Avengers together and try to solve the problem by means other than force. But at the same time, we cannot give up the final preparations for the use of force."

"So, when you have free time these days, don't forget to practice Ultimate Infinite Qigong more. I have already mastered the technology of the strong magnetic armor, and I am combining it with the technology of our universe to carry out further development. Once we step into the threshold of magnetic field rotation power, we can use the new strong magnetic armor I developed to quickly improve our combat power."

"When the time comes, we may be able to fight against the strong men in this universe."

"We must be prepared for the worst, which is that we fail to collect all six Infinity Stones and can only try to seize this last resort by force."

"As long as we have the ability to deter with force, we can handle war or negotiation with ease."

Steve rubbed his face vigorously a few times, took a deep breath, straightened his body again, and pulled himself together again.

"Thank you, Tony!"

"Then everything remains unchanged and we will stick to the original plan!"

"Continue to monitor the situation in Greenwich on Friday and provide feedback at any time. Remember, focus on observing who gets the ether particles in the end."

"Also, observe the powerful warriors participating in this battle, build an archive, and analyze their combat patterns in preparation for future battles with them."

"Also, Thor and his men will be here after the Dark Elves have completed their invasion. I hope the time and space we calculated earlier will not be wrong. But to prevent any accidents, let Friday take control of the surveillance equipment in the surrounding streets in advance. Then we can go there in advance to guard against them, and it should be foolproof."

After all the tasks were assigned, everyone started watching the live broadcast, waiting for the arrival of the dark elves.

Finally, the iconic warship of the Dark Elves crossed the space and fell straight down from the sky like a guillotine. The magic shield set up by Casillas was like foam, shattered at the touch of a finger.

The tragic situation in the city was truly revealed under the satellite and was clearly seen by everyone who had been paying attention to this place.

In the city, on the ground, the streets are full of broken buildings, shattered windows, and vehicles that have been burned to empty shells... The whole city is dead silent. The huge city is deserted and there is no sign of any life. Only waste paper, fallen leaves and other things are floating freely in the streets with the breeze.

The huge magic circle in the center of the city and the huge portal next to the magic circle were clearly exposed to everyone's sight.

Although none of them understood the magic circle, the magic runes that seemed to be bending and twisting under the satellite's observation made people dizzy at the first sight, and they could clearly feel the evil.

Although they had been mentally prepared, the sight of the entire city being completely wiped out still made the Avengers from another world breathe rapidly and become extremely angry.

But they could only watch and could do nothing!
Steve lowered his head, covered his face with his hands, and muttered to himself: "We could have stopped this..."

Scott was worried that Steve might be impulsive. He glanced at him and whispered to him:

"This is the responsibility of the local Avengers. This will happen regardless of whether we come to this universe or not, so don't take all the responsibility on your shoulders."

"I know." Steve sighed, "Don't worry about me, I understand my responsibilities."

"The reason why an impulse is impulsive is that after you calm down, you will change your mind."

"I won't be so impulsive anymore."

"I will watch it all happen and take it all in my mind, but I won't do anything about it!"

"I will always put the overall situation first!"
