Whether we regret it or not is none of your concern.

Gravik waved his hand, and two strong Skrull warriors immediately stepped forward, flanking Talos on either side.

"From this day forward, you are no longer a Skrull general. You will be a 'distinguished guest,' resting here and witnessing firsthand how I lead our race to reclaim the glory that rightfully belongs to us."

Talos did not resist, but simply gave Gravik a deep look.

There was no anger in his eyes, only a kind of pity that had seen through the ending.

He didn't even bother to say a single unnecessary word, simply letting the two guards escort him into the dark and gloomy dungeon.

The coup ended just like that, in a remarkably uneventful way.

Gravik wasted no time; after taking control of Talos, he immediately led his men to Europe!

In just two or three days, the Skrulls had completed their infiltration of various European countries.

At the United Nations meeting.

The UK representative was the first to propose a bill on "global responsibility for superheroes."

The Russian side went even further, directly accusing Alika of attempting to monopolize superhuman powers and posing a serious threat to global security.

A strong public sentiment against the privatization of superheroes is sweeping across France, with citizens, incited by certain individuals, organizing massive marches demanding "free and equal access to the protection of superheroes!"

Meanwhile, Gravik appeared in Sokovia, an obscure little country in Eastern Europe!

Here, he successfully met Baron Zemo, the commander of Hydra in Eastern Europe.

Through Baron Zemo's connections, he met a young couple.

"Wanda Maximov, Pietro Maximov..."

Gravik tapped the girl's photo lightly on the screen, a strange smile spreading across his face.

"Two 'keys' with enormous potential, simply wonderful!"

……

Not long after, at Hydra's secret base, Gravik, disguised as an ordinary person, successfully met Wanda and Pietro.

Quicksilver Pietro leaned against the wall, arms crossed, eyes alert, like a cheetah ready to pounce at any moment.

Meanwhile, Scarlet Witch Wanda sat in the shadows of a corner, a faint wisp of crimson energy swirling around her fingertips, her gaze filled with distrustful scrutiny.

"You're the one who contacted us first?" Pietro spoke first, his voice carrying the sharpness unique to young people.

"That's right, you can call me Mr. Gravik." Gravik had a kind smile on his face, but that smile sent a chill down the spines of the siblings.

"I've come here to give you an opportunity for revenge."

"Revenge?" Pietro scoffed. "Revenge with whom?"

"Do I really need to spell out the answer to that question?" Gravik paced slowly, his voice full of seduction.

"Tony Stark. That arms dealer, that so-called Iron Man, that hero of Amelia."

The words "Stark Industries" were like a sharp knife, piercing Wanda's heart.

The red light at her fingertips suddenly intensified, and the air in the entire room seemed to freeze.

"Our parents... died from Stark Industries missiles." Quicksilver spoke, his voice soft but filled with deep-seated hatred.

"I know." Gravik stopped and looked directly into their eyes.

"I understand your pain, I understand your hatred. But have you ever considered whether killing Tony Stark would make a difference?"

He spread his hands, coaxing, "Even without Tony Stark, there will be another 'Stark.' As long as the country that gave birth to him exists, as long as that kind of hegemony still looms over the world, tragedies like your family's will continue to unfold in every corner of the world."

Pietro frowned. "What exactly are you trying to say?"

Gravik's voice became more impassioned:

"Your enemy is not just Tony Stark, but everything he represents! The entire superhero system, that hypocritical world order dominated by Amelia!"

"Peter Parker, the man now hailed as the guardian of Amelia, has completely turned that hegemonic nation into his own backyard."

That country is now more powerful and arrogant than ever before!

Do you think someone like him will ever stop expanding?

As we all know, you have to eat one bite at a time.

When he ties his napkin, guess which country will be served first?

These words struck Wanda and Pietro like a heavy hammer blow.

Without a doubt, once Peter Parker decides to embark on an expedition like an emperor, small countries like Sokovia will be the first to kneel before his iron hooves!

"Join me." Gravik extended his hand to them. "I will give you the power and the opportunity to destroy the old world with your own hands and build a new order that is truly equal and free from oppression."

"And our first step is to dismantle their proud 'Avengers'."

Wanda looked at Gravik, her scarlet eyes flashing uncertainly.

Pietro then looked at his sister, awaiting her decision.

After a long while, Wanda stood up, and the red light at her fingertips gradually faded away.

"You'd better not let us down."

Upon hearing this, a triumphant smile appeared on Gravik's face.

……

At the same time that Gravek subdued Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch.

At the United Nations meeting, Maria Hill, the representative of S.H.I.E.L.D., appeared to be outnumbered by representatives from various European countries.

"Gentlemen, superheroes are not weapons; they are independent individuals. We have no right to order them around!"

"Commander Hill, this is not an order, but the demand of people all over the world!" the British representative said righteously.

"Does Alika intend to seize this powerful force for herself, threatening world peace and stability?"

This punch, imbued with the power of hundreds of years of internal energy, was something Hill truly couldn't withstand!

Ultimately, under immense public and political pressure, a major Eastern power abstained from voting in the third round, and a resolution was forcibly passed:

Alica's superheroes must be stationed around the world and subject to unified command by the United Nations.

When the news reached Avengers Tower, the office was immediately in an uproar.

"This is utter nonsense!" Tony Stark tugged at his tie in frustration. "We haven't even sorted out Alicca's situation yet, how can we possibly have the energy to deal with other countries' messes!"

"But this is a UN resolution. If we don't comply, we'll be labeled as enemies of the world." Captain America rubbed his temples in frustration, hesitated for a moment, and finally added:

"Furthermore, our current gathering in America is indeed likely to arouse suspicion from other countries!"

"If we really drive those politicians crazy, the result will definitely not be what we want to see."

Gwen Stacy stood by the window, listening to the argument taking place in the conference room.

Her beautiful eyebrows furrowed unconsciously into a deep frown.

She knew that there must be an invisible hand driving this from behind the scenes.

But without Peter, they were like people who had lost their brains, unable to speak with one voice.
