The Comprehensive Evolution of American Comics.

Chapter 830 Everything is moving slowly towards the future (Marvel ends, DC Universe starts tomorrow)

The funeral went smoothly, without any of the ups and downs in the novel. It made sense that no one would come to bring bad luck to Asgard at this time.

Yang Le and Gwen left after the funeral. After experiencing a great war, Asgard had a lot of things to do and was unable to entertain the two of them.

The two of them were also tactful and turned down Queen Frigga's polite invitation on the grounds of official business and took the initiative to leave Asgard.

When the distinguished guests left, naturally there were people to see them off. Queen Frigga personally led the royal family to see the two off. As for Thor, who did not show his face, Frigga could only say with an awkward smile that he was busy with important things.

Although Yang Le is curious, he doesn't want to find out the truth about everything. For example, he doesn't plan to go into details about this matter.

After seeing the two off, Frigga hurried back to Asgard. Her goal was clear: Loki's room.

When she opened the door, the first person Frigga saw was Thor sitting on a chair with a piece of paper in his hand. His expression looked as if he had just made a decision.

Frigga asked, "Have you found Loki?"

"No." Thor shook his head. "I was just about to look for it."

"Really?" Frigga, who was always careful, did not notice anything wrong in Thor's words and continued speaking.

"Then I will immediately arrange for someone to find him. You don't have to worry about this matter. You still have a lot to learn about how to be a good Divine King."

Thor then shook his head and said, "You can't possibly find her. I have to do this myself."

"Nonsense!" Frigga frowned. "You are a God King. The Nine Realms need you to guard them. How can you leave so easily? Just to find a..."

"To find my sister," Thor interrupted Frigga, continuing calmly. "I know, mother, you're blaming her for opening that door. There are probably many people in Asgard who share your thoughts."

"Loki was afraid of what he would see in your eyes after waking up, so he left first. Before my father died, he said that nothing is more important than family, so I must find her back."

"She was desperate enough when she was tied up with that hammer. I can't make her more desperate."

Frigga wanted to say something, but was stopped by a knock on the door. She turned around and saw Balder standing at the door.

"Um, the Vanir messenger hasn't left yet. I think one of you should go and take a look."

Balder was a little embarrassed, not knowing whether it was the right time for him to come in.

"You're here at the right time, brother." Thor stood up, strode to Balder and slapped him on the shoulder.

Before the latter could react, he felt a tremendous amount of energy transmitted into his body through Thor's right hand. This powerful force suppressed him and made Balder unable to react.

When Balder came to his senses, he only heard Thor's words.

"Now you are the new God King."

When he opened his eyes again, Thor was no longer there. Only Frigga, with a helpless look on her face, was standing in front of him.

"What are you still standing there for? As the new God King, you still have a lot to learn, starting with diplomacy."

"Oh ah?!"

...

Time flies. Several months have passed since the War of the Ten Realms. In the blink of an eye, it is the end of the year, December.

After several months, the reconstruction progress of the earth has been very impressive, and basically all countries have returned to normal.

It's just that the territories of some countries have undergone slight changes. For example, some small countries have simply merged into some big countries. After experiencing major global disasters, mankind's vision is finally not limited to the earth.

When faced with the unknown universe and alien visitors who may arrive at any time, people choose to stick together for warmth. Small countries integrate into big countries, and big countries begin to unite. It is estimated that it will not be long before the world map will undergo a huge change.

But all this has nothing to do with Yang Le. Although many people have realized the necessity of superhuman existence in times of crisis, considering that the problem of coexistence between superhumans and humans has existed since ancient times, Yang Le still decided to do something.

Therefore, he took advantage of the previous agreement between the mutants and the Supreme Heaven to create a larger artificial island and built a city on it.

This city does not belong to any country or any organization and is completely independent. Yang Le named it Metropolis, which means the city of tomorrow.

The purpose of Yang Le establishing Metropolis is to provide a place for superhumans to live, which is also a disguised fulfillment of the promise made to mutants. Since Cyclops has decided to coexist with humans, he might as well try to contact superhumans similar to himself first.

Of course, Metropolis not only welcomes superhumans, but also ordinary humans. The purpose of establishing this city is to eliminate the barriers between superhumans and humans.

Here, superhumans no longer need to deliberately hide themselves. You can boldly speak out about your abilities. There will be specialized agencies to analyze your abilities and list in detail the careers you can pursue in the future.

In short, in Metropolis, superhumans are like ordinary students with special talents. You don’t need to embark on the path of a superhero because of your superpowers. You can also be an ordinary person with characteristics.

Once this policy was publicized, a large number of superhumans immediately flocked to Metropolis. Not everyone had dreams of being a hero or a terrorist. Most people still wanted to live an ordinary life, and Metropolis gave them this opportunity.

After negotiation, even Green Lantern established his base in Metropolis. As the only superhero organization on Earth, in addition to patrolling the entire solar system, they also took on the work of Metropolis police.

After all, you can't guarantee that everyone comes with good intentions. If you want to control superhumans, you can only send superhumans, and the Green Lanterns are the best choice.

It just so happened that the Green Lanterns were hesitating about where to build a base because they didn't want to interfere in the politics of other countries. Now the two sides were like a turtle and a green bean, and they fell in love.

Green Lanterns can exchange their actual labor for the use of a building near the center of Metropolis, just like washing dishes in exchange for meal payments.

With Green Lantern in charge, the level of security in Metropolis can only be described by one idiom: leaving the doors open at night.

According to American comics, there are many geniuses among superhumans, such as Amadeus Zhao and Hank the Beast. Because genius attracts genius, Metropolis became a gathering place for the world within just a month or two of its founding. For example, Tony Stark, unable to survive in any other country due to his father's circumstances, was forced to join Metropolis. The influx of these people has exponentially increased Metropolis's technological and educational levels.

By the way, the mayor of Metropolis is also a super genius. Her name is Valeria Richards. Yang Le immediately pushed the trouble to her.

Everyone in the world knows that Metropolis has the best universities in the world, and many parents want to send their children here, but only those who can attend Metropolis School are geniuses or superhumans.

A metropolitan city based on the concept of coexistence naturally welcomes everyone as long as there are vacancies in the school. However, even if ordinary people are admitted, they will voluntarily request to transfer because they cannot keep up with the geniuses and cannot integrate into the superhuman environment.

After Metropolis was able to operate, Yang Le naturally moved into the city with Gwen. Katie also moved in, and the two attended Metropolis High School together.

Both of them showed great interest in this school where 80% of the students were superhumans. This interest then turned into satisfaction. It seemed that both of them liked the atmosphere of this high school.

The teachers here include not only ordinary people, but also mutants (Cyclops and others) and even superheroes (Peter also comes here to work when he has nothing to do). For children, this is simply the best school in the world.

It is also the safest. Any student who wants to explode will be pinned down by the school security immediately.

By the way, the school security guards include a middle-aged man who is only 1.6 meters tall but as heavy as a car, and an old man who sits in a wheelchair and can summon countless chairs with just a glance to press people to the ground.

There is also a blond strong man who rarely appears, but has a strong build, always has a hammer on his waist, and his arms are thicker than people's thighs. There is also a blond beautiful boy who always smiles, but if you make him angry, terrible things will happen.

And there is an Asian young man who doesn't look special, but is respected by all faculty and staff, has a close relationship with the famous beauty Gwen Stacy, and always wears a digital watch on his wrist.

These people were called the Four Heavenly Kings by the rebellious teenagers. Why were there five of them? Because it was normal to have five of them.

As the fifth of the Four Heavenly Kings, Yang Le lives a very comfortable life. He sits in the security room every day and goes home with Gwen after school. He looks like a retired old man.

But today is different. Yang Le has to stand up straight today. Of course, this is not because it is December now and Christmas is in two days.

A metropolis is a city that welcomes people from countless countries, so it naturally pays attention to the culture of all countries, just like major festivals such as the Spring Festival and Christmas.

As Christmas approaches, the school has been decorated with many decorations. The faces of students and faculty members are all filled with smiles. Festivals always bring people some emotions that they don’t usually have.

What's more, this is the first Christmas after the war, and everyone is eager to celebrate the holiday in a grand manner to celebrate the new life.

Yang Le naturally had the same idea, but his excitement today had nothing to do with it, because today was Gwen's birthday.

Since traveling to the Marvel Universe, Yang Le has celebrated Gwen's birthday several times, but today is a little different because today is the day Gwen comes of age.

In the past, although he and Gwen were not much different in age, after all, one was an adult and the other was a minor. Gwen might not care, but Yang Le was always afraid that others would look at her strangely.

But today is different. After today, Gwen will be an adult, so he decided to give Gwen a big one.

Yang Le pretended to be calm and waited at the school gate early, just like he was waiting for Gwen to finish school as usual.

Old Magneto, who was on duty with Yang Le and had recovered from a vegetative state, noticed Yang Le's abnormality. He used his ability a little to know what Yang Le was going to do, and without exposing it, he sat in a wheelchair and completed his job.

As the bell rang quickly, students in colorful clothes walked out of the school after a while. For a moment, there were so many people that it made people dizzy.

However, Yang Le still saw Gwen at a glance. Spider-Woman was walking out of the school, talking and laughing with Katie, and her new mutant friends including Illyana.

After walking a few steps, the group saw Yang Le who seemed to be calm. Amid the jokes of Katie and others, Gwen left the group and walked towards Yang Le with a normal expression.

If she was shy about the teasing at first, Gwen has gotten used to it after a long period of torture. She is no longer like a child.

"Let's go?" Gwen felt a little excited for some reason. Her spider sense would ring every once in a while after the school bell rang. Although she didn't know why, she always felt it was a good thing.

"Let's go." Yang Le rarely said any jokes today, but followed Gwen home obediently, which made the latter feel very strange.

"You seem a little strange today." Gwen frowned. "What's wrong? Are you hiding something from me?"

Yang Le was a little discouraged. He had wanted to wait until he got home to tell Gwen, but when he saw her face, he couldn't hold back.

So he pulled a small box out of his jacket pocket, opened it, and said to Gwen.

"Today is your birthday, so I want to propose to you."

This sentence not only stunned Gwen, but also all the students and faculty members at the school gate. Just as you would expect, there is always a sense of urgency at all times.

However, before the atmosphere team could shout something like "agree to him", Gwen took the small box first and said with a smile.

"You're a little anxious, hero, but I really like your efficiency."

After saying that, Gwen took out the ring from the box. It was an ordinary-looking diamond ring, and at first glance, there was nothing special about it.

"It's a little hard to say." Yang Le scratched his head. "I took it from my heart after I became the Diamond God of War. It means my heart is with you."

Gwen showed a look of surprise at first after hearing this, but her eyes, which were as moist as lakes, could not hide her happiness.

"It's corny, but it works. I'm sold on it." Gwen winked playfully. "Congratulations on passing, Mr. Yang Le, but you still have to get past my dad."

After hearing this, Yang Le also smiled and said.

"I couldn't ask for more, Miss Youngwyn."

　The Marvel Universe is coming to an end, and DC will begin tomorrow.
