He's in Marvel, working behind the scenes.

Although the Defenders have no grudge against the Vongola Family, one side is the Mafia, and the other is vigilante heroes who are doing justice.

It's not difficult to incite them to fight.

“Before that, we need to find a safe place.” Jin was not complacent because of Madam Gao’s praise, and continued to analyze: “The Vongola family will definitely not give up. They will soon launch another offensive. Even if we hide, their businesses will suffer serious damage. So, I have thought of a good place.”

"In addition, our own strength is indispensable!"

Madam Gao didn't ask where that good place was. She knew Kingpin very well, and if he thought it was good, then it must be right.

Her body is undergoing changes at this moment.

His gray hair gradually turned black, his wrinkles smoothed out, and his hunched back straightened up little by little...

For a fleeting moment, Kingpin and Bullseye had a misconception: this wasn't an old man over a hundred years old, but a beautiful young woman in her early twenties.

But Madam Gao never turned into a young woman; instead, she reverted to her previous appearance of around sixty years old and stopped changing.

Leaning on her cane, she let out a low laugh: "The battle just now took its toll, so the plan has to be moved up. Before that, it's time for the five fingers of the Hand to assemble!"

……

[Ding! You have gained 003 Wish Points!]

[Ding! You have gained 01 Wish Points!]

[Ding! You have gained 006 Wish Points!]

[Ding! You have gained 100 Wish Points!]

……

……

Hearing the notification sounds that were racing through his mind like a maniac, Gu Qing seemed not to hear them, lost in thought: "How can they be so strong?"

Xin and Mrs. Gao could understand.

Although they were portrayed as traitors to Kunlun in the TV series, they weren't far off from their true nature.

Moreover, although TV series such as The Defenders, Daredevil, and Iron Fist, which involve the Hand, originally had sequels, they were not filmed for various reasons. As a result, it is possible that Madam Gao and others who were buried but whose deaths were not shown in specific scenes did not die, and that they were hiding some powerful force.

But what about Kingpin and Bullseye?

Based on the timeline, Bullseye hadn't yet been modified with adamantium at this point, so his skills should have been those of an ordinary person.

Kingpin goes even further, taking a box weapon to his face... Although he's even more exaggerated in the comics, isn't this the cinematic universe?

The TV series should be linked to it!

The Kingpin in the TV series didn't have such a powerful physique.

Or……

"Because of my time travel, the world line has changed, forming a new world line?" Gu Qing pondered, stroking his chin.

The Marvel Universe possesses self-awareness, and its various concepts have corresponding deities, making it particularly sensitive.

Besides the countless possibilities and parallel universes mentioned earlier, changes in history, or changes in neighboring universes that affect the creation of new world lines can also lead to their splitting.

If we trace back to the settings of early comics, it is possible for an ordinary person to create a universe without realizing it in a dream, and people in the dream universe can also create universes when they dream.

The arrival of a time traveler named "Gu Qing" has altered the timeline of this world, potentially causing a new parallel universe to split off from the cinematic universe.

Chapter 58 Coulson Returns

Marvel has an endless multiverse, with new universes being born every moment and old universes dying every moment... This setting is due to legacy issues from Marvel's history.

Unlike ordinary comics, Marvel has existed for decades, with thousands of editors and writers, and thousands of works.

These people wrote stories using the Marvel Universe as a framework, resulting in different stories in the same time period and different settings for the same characters, with countless contradictions.

To make the plot more logical, the concept of parallel worlds was introduced... Centered on the main universe, countless parallel universes extend outwards, with each story taking place in a different universe.

In this way, there is no contradiction.

Although the emergence of powerful figures spanning multiple dimensions later caused conflicts, the Marvel editorial team then created even more advanced omnipotent and super-universes, and further subdivided them into the Pocket Universe, the Dream Universe, the Quantum Universe, and so on...

But comics are comics, and reality is reality.

The plot, created to make the story logical, is actually due to the nature of the Marvel universe itself.

Gu Qing had never watched Marvel, so she wasn't very familiar with these settings.

But even if you've never eaten pork, haven't you at least seen a pig run?

Now, if you watch a Marvel movie on any website with bullet comments, you'll see bullet comments like "XX was weakened, how awesome he was in the comics," and there are also related discussions in the comment section.

Although he didn't know if it was true, he had a general understanding of some of the settings in the comic.

Therefore, this change that fits the situation was deduced.

At this point, the system quieted down.

Gu Qing composed himself and looked at the data panel. Including the aftermath of the destruction of two US Marine Corps battalions, he had a total of 4932 prayer points.

Upon seeing this number, Gu Qing frowned.

Ordinary people cannot provide many prayer points; even the most terrifying death can only provide between 003 and 01.

While the strong can provide a high amount of prayer points, due to their own strength and limited perspective, they are unlikely to experience emotional fluctuations towards the same strong individuals.

Take this battle as an example.

Hibari's strength was enough to shock ordinary people, but Madam Gao and Kingpin remained completely unmoved. If it weren't for the novelty of the box weapon, they might not have even been able to collect this much wish value.

To reap the prayer points of the strong, you either need to evoke resonance through your story or showcase your strength through even stronger individuals.

"Boss, we've found a suitable store."

At that moment, Otto's calm voice came from behind.

Gu Qing's thoughts returned to reality. She glanced at the bustling street outside the door, and only after regaining her composure did she turn back... Otto, dressed in a suit, stood calmly at the back door, a pigeon perched on his right shoulder.

Clearly, this is the person who helped him find a storefront.

“On the main street of Chinatown, there are two shops facing each other across the street. They used to be a Chinese medicine clinic and a restaurant, both owned by the same person,” Otto explained. “Because his son’s business was thriving in China, he decided to go back and enjoy family life, so he transferred the shop.”

"Hmm, that's good. Let's go talk to them!"

Gu Qing stood up, preparing to negotiate the shop deal so that he could open a restaurant and martial arts school for Liu Maoxing and Guo Haihuang.

But then, an unexpected person pushed open the door to the store.

"Hello, we meet again, Mr. Gu Qing!"

Looking at the middle-aged man who smiled and greeted her, Gu Qing remained silent for a while before asking in utter incomprehension, "Coulson, that kind of thing just happened yesterday, how did you manage to appear in front of us as if nothing had happened?"

"We just want to protect Mr. Gu Qing."

Coulson shrugged, looking innocent. "After all, Mr. Gu Qing has a lot of intelligence. If he were to be captured by malicious individuals, it could cause great harm to society."

Therefore, after learning that your residence had been attacked, the chief was so anxious to send me to arrest you. It was actually a form of protection, and I hope you can understand.

However, having learned of your formidable strength, sir, we believe you are capable of protecting yourself, and therefore we have withdrawn our protection of you.

"Then I really have to thank him!" Gu Qing rolled her eyes and replied dismissively.

These agents are incredibly wicked.

If it weren't for my own ability to protect myself and the abundance of intelligence I possessed, coupled with the fact that they couldn't figure out my true strength and dared not act recklessly...

Otherwise, the outcome is still uncertain!

At least, when he watched Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. in his previous life, this organization had built quite a few facilities to house superhumans in other regions.

Although Coulson's team, as the main characters, only contains superhumans who have lost control of their abilities or are experiencing severe negative emotions, there are other individuals who indiscriminately capture superhumans for human experimentation.

However, business is business.

He wanted to obtain a large amount of wish points through S.H.I.E.L.D., and although he was unhappy with their behavior, he didn't plan to do anything about it.

"I will definitely convey your gratitude to the director when I get back." Coulson seemed oblivious to the sarcasm in Gu Qing's words, maintaining his smile. "I came here today because I would like to ask Mr. Gu Qing for a favor."

"Helping you is no problem, but I won't do it for nothing."

Upon hearing about business, Gu Qing acted as if nothing had happened, his eyes crinkling with a smile, befitting a shrewd businessman.

Coulson's lips twitched, but he managed to hold it in and said, "Of course, I brought funding with me this time."

He paused, then continued, "I'd like to know where Mr. Gu Qing took Mr. Stark yesterday, and what they did?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Qing's happy face fell. "I will not disclose business matters with other employers."

"A million dollars!"

"Even a hundred million wouldn't be of any use!"

"OK then!"

Coulson lowered his head and thought for a moment, then continued, "Then, Mr. Gu Qing, please take me to see Miss Tamayo as well!"

"Huh?" Gu Qing looked at him with slight surprise and asked, "Didn't you follow me and Tony yesterday?"

How could we do something that violates other people's privacy?

"And what about the woman in the coffee shop across the street, the sniper in the clock tower on East Street, and the young couple who just moved in next door?"

"Huh?" Coulson blinked, looking at Gu Qing with a puzzled expression. "What does this mean?"

After saying that, as if realizing something, she quickly explained, "You mean those people are spying on you? That wasn't arranged by us."

Hmph, they're quite the actor.

I still have two hidden sentries I haven't revealed. Are you secretly gloating because you think I haven't discovered them?

Gu Qing felt contempt in her heart, but she didn't hide it on her face. She waved her hand dismissively and said, "Fine, fine, if you say it's not, then it's not!"

"It really isn't true, sir, you have to believe us!" Coulson feigned innocence, but inwardly he breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, there are still two undiscovered locations.
