Marvel: I became an ancestor by sacrificing offerings.

Chapter 279: Fortifications Completed, Army Attacks

She is a Valkyrie whose lifelong dream is to die on the battlefield and have her soul return to Valhalla after death.

Sif's greatest desire in life was to fight against top-tier experts.

Unfortunately, Saul, whom she had a crush on, always charged to the front lines in every battle, claiming to "protect" her, but in reality, he stole all the exciting fights.

When I try to spar with him, he always puts on an arrogant face that says, "Come on, you'll never beat me in your life."

She hated this feeling!

And Peter...

She had witnessed this man's strength firsthand.

There are very few people in the entire Nine Realms who can directly confront someone of Soros's caliber.

If you can keep practicing with Peter at full strength

She believed that her progress would be phenomenal.

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's begin."

"Um?"

"Combat training!" Sif suddenly stood up, twisting her longsword in two. "You promised me!"

Having said that, she picked up her two swords and slashed at Peter with one of them.

Peter couldn't do anything with this crazy woman, so he could only wait until she rushed up to him and then flick her on the head.

Don't underestimate this simple flick on the forehead; it sent Sif flying more than ten meters away, demonstrating the difference in their abilities.

Although she was instantly defeated by Peter, Sif had no regrets whatsoever.

She just gritted her teeth and got up, then charged at Peter again and again.

Once, twice, ten times, twenty times... hundreds of times.

Until her legs could no longer support her, sweat formed a small puddle on the ground, and she collapsed to the ground, unable to muster any more strength.

This marked the end of the practice session.

After the practice session, her face showed no sign of defeat, but rather an unprecedented sense of exhilaration.

This feeling... is so amazing!

It's more enjoyable than playing a hundred practice matches in Asgard.

Because Peter wouldn't hold back like Saul, and he certainly wouldn't deliberately go easy on her just because she was a woman.

Shoot as you should, hit as hard as you should.

This is the real battle.

This is the husband she wanted!

On this thought, the usually strong-willed Sif surprisingly revealed a touch of feminine charm:

"Peter."

"Um?"

"...Carry me to rest, okay?"

The voice was soft, yet it carried an undeniable intensity.

Peter paused for a moment.

Then a decision was made in less than 0.1 seconds.

What's there to hesitate about?

Anyway, I've already informed Gwen and Felicia.

Moreover, this girl has clearly been completely tamed by him; if he continues to be reserved, what difference would there be between him and a eunuch!

He immediately bent down and picked Sif up in his arms.

Sif buried her face in his chest, her ears turning bright red.

He was still trying to argue, saying, "Don't misunderstand, I'm just too tired to walk."

"Mmm, whatever you say is right."

"I really just can't walk!"

"I know, I know."

"What are you laughing at! Stop laughing!"

……

For the next month or so, Peter's schedule was packed.

Aside from developing relationships with Gwen, Felicia, Sif, Natasha, Daisy, and others, he spent the rest of his time at the construction site.

Yes, a construction site.

An unprecedented transformation is underway in the underground of New York City.

Peter and Tony used the air-raid shelters left over from the Cold War as the basic framework for the renovation, and officially began the construction of the New York underground project.

Peter's earth magic was practically a cheat code in this kind of project—others had to use tunnel boring machines to dig tunnels, which consumed a lot of manpower and resources.

But for him, it was just a matter of saying "LAND PLEASE~"!

Using magic to directly push the earth, a passage was instantly completed wherever it passed. Workers then laid reinforced steel beams along the way, increasing efficiency many times over.

Tony was in charge of technical design and equipment installation, while Peter was in charge of civil engineering and energy core deployment.

The two have achieved an extremely high level of teamwork.

How well do they understand each other?

The answer is that even Pepper Potts and Gwen Strange would feel a little envious.

With this tacit understanding and almost supernatural magic,

In less than a month, the level two and level three underground defense works were completed.

The secondary defense system consists of 53 underground safe houses spread across the five boroughs of New York City.

These safe houses are all independently powered by arc reactors and have sufficient defensive capabilities to withstand super-high yield explosives.

Each safe house is equipped with a complete ventilation system, an emergency medical station, and supplies to last at least 72 hours.

In theory, these safe houses are enough to accommodate all eight million residents of New York City.

When the Arc Reactor's defenses are insufficient, it will activate three Level 3 Safe Houses infused with a large amount of vibranium.

Manhattan, one.

Queens, one.

Brooklyn, one.

Each Level 3 safe house can accommodate 1.5 million people.

In other words, in the most extreme scenario, these three vibranium fortresses alone could save nearly half of New York's population.

"This is the limit of what we can do."

On the day of completion and acceptance, Tony stood in the control room of the Brooklyn Level 3 safe house, and a rare look of exhaustion appeared on his face.

"The rest depends on whether Freddy's dynamic management can keep up when things actually happen."

The Freddy that Tony mentioned is an auxiliary AI that he developed specifically for this defense system.

Once the battle begins, Freddy will calculate the battlefield situation in real time, determine which areas are the core combat zones, and then automatically open the corresponding safe house passages to guide citizens from the level 2 safe house to the level 3 safe house.

Simply put, it means—don't let ordinary people wander around aimlessly; let them go wherever they need to go.

"Thanks for your hard work, Tony."

"Don't give me that crap," Tony mumbled through a cheeseburger. "I just hope I never have to use any of this stuff."

Peter didn't respond.

He certainly didn't want to use these things.

But he had a feeling that these things would soon come in handy.

……

Intuition can sometimes be so accurate that it makes you want to curse.

Three days after the fortifications were completed, Peter received a call from Hill.

"Director, Mr. Saul has just arrived at headquarters and says he has something important to discuss with you in person."

Upon hearing this, Peter did not hesitate at all, immediately took out the Eye of Aurora, and teleported to the headquarters of S.H.I.E.L.D.

Saul had been waiting in the conference room for a long time.

"What happened?" Peter asked casually after landing.

After taking a deep breath, Thor answered directly:

"Heimdall saw it."

"What do you see?"

"Five warships."

Thor solemnly held up five fingers:

"Five Chitauri warships are heading towards Earth."

"Moreover, they deliberately bypassed the star system where Asgard is located, because of the cosmic peace treaty that Father signed back then... We Asgard cannot interfere in this battle!"

We can only give you this information in advance; the rest depends on yourselves to see if you can withstand their attack!
