I sparked a mysterious resurgence in Marvel.

Chapter 264

Gu Yi had barely finished speaking.

A golden-red circle, constantly emitting sparks, began to spin rapidly beside the Ancient One. Soon after, a huge portal with a diameter of ten meters appeared beside her.

next second.

A huge golden-red sphere of light fell in from the other side of the portal.

The Ancient One reached out and gently pushed the Vishanti Cage, which imprisoned the eight-armed mechanical demon avatar, and a huge magic circle appeared behind the Vishanti Cage.

The Vishanti Cage, which imprisoned the eight-armed mechanical demon avatar, was pushed toward Dormammu.

As the eight-armed mechanical demon avatar was launched, the Ancient One's soul stirred slightly and entered the enormous portal.

Above the endless starry sky, Dormammu silently watched as the Ancient One's soul, carrying the Orb of Asax, disappeared into the golden-red portal.

Looking behind the teleportation portal, there were hundreds of massive, unobstructed magic arrays layered upon each other.

Dormammu's enormous eyes were filled with disdain and indifference.

The magic arrays behind the portal were nothing to Dormammu; he could destroy them with a single blow at any time.

However, Dormammu did not easily step into the other side of the portal, to the Earth that he so coveted.

The Ancient One is cunning and treacherous; no one knows what lies hidden on the other side of the portal. Perhaps those magic arrays are actually bait deliberately set up by the Ancient One.

If I were to actually follow the Ancient One and step onto Earth, who knows what I would face?

Perhaps the power I project into the material world will also be packaged up and sold to another dimensional lord by the Ancient One, just like this unlucky guy in front of me.

Dormammu had no intention of doing something so foolish.

Dormammu, who possesses near-eternal life, has plenty of time and is not in a hurry to do many things.

No one knew the Ancient One's physical condition better than Him.

Under the relentless erosion of the Dark Dimension's primal power, the Ancient One could not hold on much longer.

Once the Ancient One dies, Dormammu will have plenty of ways to bring Earth and its billions of inhabitants into his dark kingdom.

···········································

On the other side...

Even after the portal closed completely, Dormammu hadn't made the slightest move. The Ancient One sighed softly, a hint of regret in her voice:

"What a pity..."

After casually dispelling the various contingency plans she had set up in the [Mirror Space], the Ancient One took the Pearl of Asax and gradually disappeared into the darkness, leaving the nuclear power plant filled with corpses.

··········································

On the other side...

After endless explosions.

The original location of the thorn cage was now filled with lush green thorn bushes, vehicles and buildings along the roadside, humans who had not yet evacuated, and mechanical life forms.

Everything was completely burned to ashes by the pure white flames.

All that remains is a huge scorched crater, over 300 meters in diameter, still emitting billowing blue smoke.

Pushing aside the waves of heat that washed over him, and stepping onto the scorched earth radiating astonishing heat, Erin arrived at the edge of the enormous crater. Looking at the massive crater before him, he remarked with a touch of melancholy, "How lucky!"

Fortunately, although the explosion was incredibly powerful, its destructive force was exceptionally concentrated and did not spread. Otherwise, if such destructive power had spread even a little, it would have been a devastating blow to everything around it.

I have no idea how that silver-white mechanical life form created this explosive.

As Erin sighed, the sounds of gunfire and artillery continued unabated in the distance.

The self-destruction of that silver-white mechanical life form did not mean that the battle was over.

After suffering incredibly heavy casualties.

Those who managed to escape from the thorny cage, along with the mechanical lifeforms that had originally intercepted the human air force, became the targets of human retaliation.

After escaping the aftershocks of the explosion.

With the fire support of Colonel Rhodes and other federal air force personnel.

Steve Rogers, leading the remaining S.H.I.E.L.D. agents and some police officers, immediately launched a fierce retaliation against the remaining mechanical lifeforms.

"Boss, I've 'seized' several relatively intact robot corpses. Shall we leave with the spoils?"

Although she took the opportunity to help her best friend, Kiris didn't forget the purpose of her and the BOSS's visit.

While working with Steve to eliminate the fleeing mechanical lifeforms, Kiris discreetly used her [Mirror Movement] ability to hide several relatively intact robot corpses.

"Now that we've collected everything, let's leave!"

Not long after the silver-white mechanical life form self-destructed, Erin received a boost in his mind.

The deaths of the Lightning Robot and the Silver Robot brought Erin a total of two thousand Fate Points.

Although it's not much, it's better than nothing.

After assessing that the ordinary mechanical lifeforms could no longer provide him with Fate Points, Erin decided not to stay any longer.

Together with Kiris, they stored the bodies of the mechanical beings she had secretly hidden into the Ring of Greed.

As if remembering something, Erin picked up his phone and sent a message to Fregra, telling him that the opportunity to release the miracle potion ahead of schedule had arrived.

Aside from those who died directly, many others were injured by stray bullets or artillery shells during this battle.

Arlin believed that with Fregra's abilities, he could seize this opportunity to make the Miracle Potion famous.

････････････････････････････････

After putting away her phone, Erin was about to leave with Kiris.

Having almost finished off the escaped mechanical lifeforms, Steve and Natasha jogged over together.

Before the person even arrived, Captain America spoke up: "Um, just a moment, could we borrow your notebook again, um, the notebook that can answer any question?"

After Captain America finished speaking, Natasha chimed in, "It's not a free loan. It's a million dollars per question, including the one Steve just asked. S.H.I.E.L.D. will pay for that. I know you're rich, but S.H.I.E.L.D. is being generous like this, so why not take advantage of them?"

After revealing S.H.I.E.L.D.'s bottom line, Natasha winked at Erin, showing no intention of saving S.H.I.E.L.D. any money.

Upon hearing this, Erin raised an eyebrow and chuckled, "One million US dollars for one question, that's no small sum. It seems that S.H.I.E.L.D. wants to know something quite substantial, otherwise I don't believe you would be so generous."

Natasha, standing nearby, shrugged and said, "We just want to find out who was behind the assassination attempt on Director Nick Fury. You don't know, our director died a horrible death, not even leaving behind a complete body."

Who was behind the assassination of Commissioner Nick Fury?

Isn't that Alexander Pierce's?

So much time has passed.

Surely S.H.I.E.L.D. doesn't still not know who was responsible for that incident?

After killing Alexander Pierce, Erin knew everything about what he had done, since many of those things were stored in Alexander's basement archive.

Of course, Erin wouldn't tell Natasha and the others this.

"Did he die a horrible death? Is your chief really dead?" After shaking her head slightly, Erin gave Natasha a meaningful look.

Did he know that Chief Fury wasn't dead?

Natasha felt a chill run down her spine when she saw Erin's meaningful gaze.

To lure out the mastermind behind his assassination attempt, Nick Fury faked his death, a fact few people knew.

How could Erin know about such a thing?

Could he have some connection with the mastermind behind the assassination of Chief Fury?

Natasha, who subconsciously suspected Erin, almost instantly recalled Erin's amazing divination skills and the seemingly omniscient notebook in his hand.

Shaking her head to clear her mind of those strange thoughts, Natasha said firmly, "Of course, Director Fury's death was too tragic, and what's even more tragic is that we still haven't found the real culprit behind his death. So, after learning about the amazing abilities of your notebook, we'd like to borrow it."

Whether or not Erin really knows that Nick Fury is not dead, this kind of thing cannot be revealed by her.

"yes."

He chuckled softly.

With a flick of his wrist, the notebook magically appeared in Erin's hand.

After taking out the "Question Notebook" again, Erin didn't expose Natasha's lie. Instead, he looked at Natasha and Steve and said with a smile, "One million dollars per question, of course I won't refuse such a good deal. However, you can only ask this notebook a maximum of three questions within a certain period of time, and it's best if these questions are not asked by the same person, otherwise something bad might happen."

For a period of time, a maximum of three questions can be asked to this notebook, and there is also a rule that a person can only ask the notebook one question at most, which is just Erin's wording.

While adding a touch of mystery to the notebook, Erin also didn't want Natasha and the others to ask too many questions.

While a million dollars per question might seem tempting, he doesn't intend to treat the Question Notebook as S.H.I.E.L.D.'s encyclopedia.

Moreover, there are some things that Erin doesn't want S.H.I.E.L.D. to know too much about.

Although Natasha and Steve had some doubts about Erin's wording, they didn't question it too much.

Natasha even felt that this was more normal.

Otherwise, wouldn't it be abnormal if this kind of "question notebook" that can answer any question had no restrictions?

After all, there are always plenty of shameless people in this world who aren't afraid of getting into trouble.

If answering just one stupid question could resolve all my doubts, this magical notebook would probably be filled with questions by now.

······································

Seeing the two nodding slightly, Erin continued:

"The captain already asked a question last time. Is Miss Natasha going to ask it this time?"

Looking at the notebook Erin handed her, Natasha, though somewhat reluctant, resignedly accepted the "Question Notebook."

After communicating with Maria Hill for a while via wireless earpiece.

Natasha then wrote a question in her notebook.

Who was behind the assassination attempt on Nick Fury?

Erin, who was half a head taller than Natasha, glanced at the question Natasha had written in her notebook, and a thoughtful look flashed in his eyes.

Although Nick Fury is not very capable, he has accumulated a lot of trump cards over the years by taking advantage of his position.

Now that he has taken over Hydra, a branch of S.H.I.E.L.D., in order to make it easier for him to control S.H.I.E.L.D. through that Hydra, should he find an opportunity to get rid of Nick Fury, this troublesome guy, or remove him from S.H.I.E.L.D.?

To be honest, Erin didn't have a good impression of Nick Fury, that black bastard.

Erin still remembers clearly how they sent agents to infiltrate his home.

Just as Erin was pondering how to kick Nick Fury out of S.H.I.E.L.D. to better facilitate his access to S.H.I.E.L.D.'s vast resources...

A name quickly appeared below the question Natasha had written.

Alexander Pierce.

Natasha and Steve's eyes flashed with surprise as they looked at the name displayed on the notebook.

Originally, after Alexander Pierce's death, Natasha and her team had almost ruled out any suspicions about him.

But unexpectedly, the story took an unexpected turn, and the truth about the mastermind behind Nick Fury's assassination returned to the very beginning.

While she was surprised, Natasha's hands were not idle at all.

He quickly took out his phone, photographed the answers from the question notebook, and sent them to Maria Hill.

Natasha took a deep breath and prepared to face her "death" sentence.

next second.

Golden characters floated up from the Question Notebook, forming a sentence.

"Please state the number of men and women you have had sexual relations with."

Looking at the question floating in front of Natasha, Steve opened his mouth slightly. Men are one thing, but women? What the hell? Are these idle young people so open-minded and play such crazy games?

And this kind of question is just too much!

Thinking of this, Steve couldn't help but cast a worried glance at Natasha.

However, to Steve's surprise, Natasha seemed relieved after seeing the question.

After thinking it over carefully, Natasha shook her head and said, "As for the men, I don't remember the exact number; there are too many similar missions. But as for the women, there are only three."
