The Comprehensive Evolution of American Comics.

Chapter 829 Asgard's Funeral

With Green Lantern helping to maintain law and order, countries on Earth can finally devote themselves to disaster relief and reconstruction.

Of course, in the beginning, many people did not believe in any weapon that could judge people's hearts. With the "excellent example" of the Supreme Squadron led by Hyperion, the general public, especially the surviving Americans, did not have much confidence in this group of new vigilantes.

At first, some of the younger Green Lanterns were hurt, after all, they really risked their lives to protect the Earth, but after being enlightened by Peter and Amadeus, they were relieved.

"The key is not what we explain, but how we do it." Peter thought for a while before explaining to the Lanterns around him.

"The reputation of the Supreme Team wasn't built bit by bit, nor was it destroyed overnight. As long as we keep doing the right things, I believe the world will eventually change its view of us."

Peter didn't expect that what he said today would become one of the Green Lanterns' principles, but as he said, everything depends on man, and with the efforts of the Green Lanterns, their reputation is indeed improving little by little.

As their reputations grew, the conditions of people in various countries also grew. This was because the Green Lanterns discovered that basically one Green Lantern could control a country, and including substitutes, only three people were enough.

And they had a total of 5,000 people, which was a serious waste of manpower. Later, under the planning of the brain power faction led by Amadeus, the manpower of the Lanterns was redistributed.

In order to deal with possible dangers, there are only one thousand Green Lanterns used for public security protection, and the rest are all devoted to the reconstruction of the earth.

This plan greatly accelerated the pace of reconstruction. After all, the Green Lantern is so comprehensive that a Green Lantern is equivalent to a decoration team.

The civil engineers who understand construction are responsible for the professional stuff, while those who don’t understand it will work as laborers, responsible for clearing garbage, moving heavy objects, and solving problems with dangerous buildings.

By the way, it may be because of this people-friendly action that the reputation of the Green Lanterns has improved rapidly.

It took only two days for those countries that were originally destroyed by war to rebuild cities that could accommodate their citizens. If resources had not been insufficient, the reconstruction speed would probably have been even faster.

Speaking of resource issues, due to the suppression of Green Lantern and the intention of countries around the world to maintain the status quo, the international currency exchange rate has not actually changed much. Only the US dollar has fallen a little, but of course not by much.

As long as the economic system did not collapse, resources from all aspects could barely keep up. By the way, after Tony Stark learned what his father had done, he sold Stark Industries.

Of course, the company is not worth much now. What Tony sells are the truly valuable patents, design drawings and other miscellaneous items within the group.

Tony didn't want to make a fortune before his group completely collapsed. He then donated the money he got from the sale, plus all his own liquid funds. There was no other way. All the fixed assets were burned up by the United States, and he couldn't sell them even if he wanted to.

Zheng Xian made a fortune at this time. Yes, Tony's buyer was him, or rather, the S.H.I.E. Bureau. Tony didn't originally want to find someone from another country, but the conditions offered by Zheng Xian were too generous.

SMASH is willing to take full responsibility for Howard Stark's treatment. Yes, although Howard was blown into the sky, he did not die. The iron armor he wore, which was protected by the Sky Hammer, saved his life. Of course, he still had some injuries.

There are only a handful of countries on Earth that can offer the safest and most advanced medical treatment, but Tony might only be able to trust this one, considering his hometown is still a pile of ruins. Of course, Tony is no fool; he didn't sell the foundation of Stark's career, only buying some less important items. But Zheng Xian is content. Compared to before, these things are like free gifts.
The trauma brought to the Earth by the War of the Realms is gradually recovering, and civilization is once again reviving on this blue planet. Yes, the first facilities to be rebuilt are hospitals, followed by schools.

Yang Le didn't expect that the sentence "You have to go to school even if the world ends" was not a joke.

However, educational resources are limited, so even if the schools were rebuilt, it would be of no use. In the end, the government decided to let all children across the country take online classes at home.

It is a cause for celebration that Gwen and Katie, who have been away from school for a long time, have returned to the ocean of knowledge.

Gwen said it was nothing, after all, she had already taught herself all the high school courses. Katie frowned, as she was a bad student.

But she didn't feel sad for too long, because Gwen agreed to help her with her studies, but only after Asgard's funeral.

Three days passed quickly. After Gwen handed her online class to Olaf, she followed Yang Le onto the Rainbow Bridge of Asgard.

The two learned about the customs of Asgard in advance and found that there was nothing special about the funeral. So they wore black formal attire according to the customs of Earth to attend the funeral.

Thor did not agree to Zheng Xian's request. He said that he did not want to talk about irrelevant things in this scene, but the relationship with the earth would remain the same as before.

The funeral in Asgard is similar to the ancient court funerals in Europe and the United States. After all, Odin has already returned to the land of Asgard, so this funeral is just a ceremony.

Grand and solemn, this was the impression the Asgardian funeral gave Yang Le. The Asgardians who used to be so cheerful and carefree now all had a different look on their faces, but no one in the country shed tears.

This is not because they don't love the previous God-King, but because a glorious death in Asgard is something worth celebrating. If you shed tears at this time, it means that you look down on the warriors who died gloriously.

The ceremony was proceeding in an orderly manner, but Gwen was a little out of focus, always looking around quietly. Yang Le thought she was just curious at first, but then he asked her through telepathy when he saw her frequent movements.

'Why don't I see Loki?'

Although the two had only had a brief contact, the Asgardian princess's bold courtship still left a deep impression on her, so Gwen was the first to notice Loki's absence.

Yang Le decided to wait until the funeral was over before telling Gwen all the love, hatred and vengeance of the Asgard compound, so as to prevent her from screaming during the funeral. Now he could only fool her for the time being.

Looking at Thor who was presiding over the funeral, I wonder how he views his sister now.
