In front of Superman, you have no choice but to give yourself to a little girl.

Upon hearing this, Carol paused for a moment, then smiled broadly, accepted Gugu, and thanked her.

Peter and Harry glanced discreetly at the silent Gwen; even through the hood, they could imagine that her expression was far from pleasant.

You're in big trouble!

In the end, the two could only look at An Zhui with pity one last time, and then close their eyes under his puzzled gaze.

Although he hadn't figured out the situation yet, Anzhui was also a little flustered by the two of them.

He tried to ask his boss for help, but saw Carroll looking at Wayne with affection in his eyes.

"You know... call me anytime if you need anything."

Carol handed Wayne a Kree communicator that was no bigger than the palm of her hand. "Of course, you can always reach out to me if you don't need to. You know... we can chat and stuff. I usually have time."

"I don't need this."

"Take it. After all, you've helped me so much. I can't be ungrateful, right?"

"..."

Wayne fell silent for a moment, while Gwen took the communicator and shoved it into Wayne's bewildered hand.

Without explaining to Wayne, Gwen simply nodded slightly at Carol's grateful gaze, accepting her thanks as if Carol owed her one.

Rather than waiting for a philanderer to steal food without your knowledge, it's better to let the philanderer roam under your nose, at least then you can control how much they eat.

Seeing that things seemed to be developing in a direction he didn't understand, Wayne had no choice but to change the subject, "I thought you were going to give me a pager or something."

"A pager? What's the use of that?"

Even if they could actually connect via pager, Carole would definitely not use such a one-way receiving device. After all, she still wanted to have long phone conversations with Wayne occasionally, so what use was a pager that couldn't be used for chatting?

Wayne brushed the topic off, saying, "It's nothing, I just suddenly thought of it."

"All right?"

Carol didn't dwell on it too much; as long as Wayne accepted the "contact information," that was fine. "So... keep in touch?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Carol took one last long look at Wayne before turning into a golden streak of light and flying into outer space with Gugu in her arms.

For some reason, Carol felt a little empty inside while she was in mid-air.

However, Carol reassured herself that there was still a way to contact her, and she needed to spend time mastering her abilities and becoming stronger so that she could be of more help.

The next second, her wrist flickered rapidly a few times.

You're already missing me?

Carol was overjoyed. She stopped in mid-air, holding Gugu in her right hand, and projected a holographic image above her raised left wrist—unfortunately, it wasn't the person she longed for.

"Do you have any space left on your spaceship?"

Gwen turned to the side, revealing the scene of Rocket Raccoon torturing the Supreme Evolution behind her. "It looks like Captain won't be leaving anytime soon."

"Huh? Oh, I'll go ask the doctor, the spaceship should still have room."

After saying that, Carroll hung up the phone somewhat angrily and sped towards Dr. Lawson's spaceship, which was located outside the atmosphere.

……

The group returned to Earth aboard Dr. Lawson's spaceship.

In fact, Wayne originally intended to take the group directly back to Earth.

The result was, "Don't come near me, you two-timing bastard, you disgust me."

Of course, this wasn't Gwen's statement; it was Harry's and Peter's—which almost led Wayne to abandon the two of them to fend for themselves in another galaxy.

An Zhui did not return to Earth with the others. The universe is safe right now, so it doesn't matter where he goes to roam.

In addition, he also had to make plans to see if he could contact his best friend, and Peter and Harry's reactions made him worry that he would be targeted if he returned to Earth, so he told Wayne that he wanted to travel around other star systems for a while.

Wayne naturally let him go. Seeing how much his boss trusted him, Anzhui was so moved that he cried. He immediately said that his boss could call him anytime if needed, and he was practically ready to go through fire and water to show his loyalty.

After returning to Earth, Carol and Dr. Lawson originally wanted to go back to Cape Canaveral, after all, they had been gone for so long.

Although they hadn't figured out how to explain it yet—after all, other things were relatively easy to explain, but Dr. Lawson's Kree identity was clearly going to cause a lot of trouble.

However, Carroll does not intend to report Dr. Lawson's identity, a decision made based on years of friendship and an objective assessment.

Her personality destined her not to mechanically follow orders—a personality that would be difficult to be a soldier in theory, but the country she lived in happened to highly value this kind of "individual heroism".

Unfortunately, Carol couldn't think of a good excuse. Saying they just went out for a walk? Come on, they'd been missing for most of the day!

Just when Carol thought she had no choice but to give up her identity as a "pilot," Wayne made a casual phone call to Matthew, and the problem was solved.

This made Carol even more grateful to him, even though she knew it was just a small thing for him, she would remember it.

It's important to understand that the title "pilot" holds significant meaning for Carol.

She dedicated the first half of her life to this cause; few pilots were as outstanding as her. This was her pride and proof to everyone.

Even after gaining her abilities, Carol will never forget the glory that belongs exclusively to "Carol Danvers." It is a memento she keeps for herself, and also a warning to herself.

She will not forget that she was once a mortal just because she has gained abilities.

Shortly after Wayne made the phone call to Matthew, Dr. Lawson left Earth with a reluctant Carol.

Carol needs to learn to control her powers, and Dr. Lawson chooses to help her, as he happens to know of several planets whose environments are likely very suitable for Carol.

……

Baxter Building.

Wayne returned here after dropping Gwen off at home.

Wayne blurred through the window while looking at the group chat on his phone. Because of the symbiote incident, the school had arranged a private plane to bring the professors and students back.

So, after most of the day had passed, the professor and his students had already returned to New York.

Wayne, who was looking at his phone, also noticed JJJ's channel. At that moment, JJJ was still at Kennedy Space Center, interviewing his son, Colonel John, who had just finished resting.

It's worth mentioning that JJJ didn't forget to slip in his personal opinions during the interview, occasionally making a few critical remarks about Peter.

While texting Peter, Wayne deployed a bio-field with "scarlet particle effects".

His superhuman senses had already heard the hurried footsteps and the refreshing fragrance wafting towards him.

However, after so many times, even he, as oblivious as he was, had learned his lesson—anyone who suddenly gets close to him must have ulterior motives. He couldn't be as unguarded as before; this time, he wouldn't let it happen again…

In an instant, Wayne's pupils contracted sharply; his biofield had been forcibly breached! This had never happened before!

Wayne realized something was wrong, but he wasn't worried about anything happening to him; since he didn't think he was going to die, he knew he couldn't possibly die.

Along with the surprise and confusion came unprecedented excitement—the opponent's strength was greater than his usual level!

Just as Wayne was getting interested in exchanging a few blows with his opponent...

Something unexpected happened—a cool, soft touch mixed with a faint fragrance; the other person's kiss was awkward yet passionate, even attempting to pry open his teeth…

"etc!"

Wayne hadn’t expected that the other party would go to such lengths to break through his biofield just for this.

His brow furrowed slightly, and he reached out to press down on Hela, whose expression seemed off. His superhuman vision detected every abnormality in her. "You are..."

Even Eternity, a branch of a single universe, couldn't forcefully break through his biofield when it had the advantage of having its home field, let alone break through his biofield in such a short time.

Coupled with this intense aura of death, the identity of the other party is obvious—the Goddess of Death, one of the five great gods.

Moreover, it's not a "clone" like a branch of eternity, otherwise it would be impossible to have this kind of power.

This is the death of the physical body!
