Chapter 328 Robbery

While Karl was secretly plotting, the Marvel Cinematic Universe was taking a much more aggressive approach.

The group completely abandoned the Avengers storyline. Regardless of how nervous S.H.I.E.L.D. and others were, Spider-Man secretly led them across the Earth and found a passage to Asgard.

After a spatial teleportation, Spider-Man, Mebius, Tiamat, and Deadpool all arrived in Asgard.

Earth has been temporarily abandoned by them, and the crashed spaceship and the Multiverse Tower have been stored in Spider-Man's personal space. The two gems will not leave Earth for the time being; they will be temporarily stored there.

The group did not land in a palace, because Asgard is a very large place. If viewed from the distant depths of space, it would look like a continent suspended in the universe, with a large population and its own operating rules different from those of other planets.

However, after observing its surroundings and shifting several times, the spider arrived near a magnificent palace.

It's really easy to find. Most of Asgard is a beautiful natural landscape with mountains and clear waters, but the palace is the best built and it emits a faint light at all times, making it very conspicuous.

They were now standing in front of a giant bridge, with the Asgardian palace they were looking for on the other side, where the Space Stone was stored in its treasury.

"Why did we stop here? Can't we just go in?" Mebius asked the spider.

She had witnessed Spider's spatial abilities firsthand; interstellar teleportation was no problem at all, and the speed was extremely fast, appearing effortless. That's why she didn't understand why Spider didn't just teleport directly into the Celestial Palace. Even if she didn't know the location of the treasure vault, she could probably find it by using teleportation a few times.

Spider remained silent for several seconds, seemingly going through some mental process, before finally managing to say, "Barrier."

Heimdall had a clear view of their movements, and Odin naturally made preparations in advance. However, the spider's teleportation was very effective; even to a place as far as Asgard, it was done in an instant, so Odin only had time to bring Asgard into the barrier.

From Mebius's perspective, Spider-Man seemed arrogant and aloof, somewhat similar to Kevin from her original world—both were expressionless and taciturn, perhaps even more so, since Spider-Man's answers to her questions were perfunctory and he wouldn't say more than a few words.

"Forget it, you mean there's a barrier? Who cares, let's just go in. We're not here as guests," Möbius said.

A beam of yellow energy shot straight ahead, but it collided with an invisible barrier after only a few meters, creating only a few ripples in the air.

"It's pretty sturdy, but I don't know how long it will last."

Before Mebius could make another move, the barrier surrounding Asgard automatically opened a crack, and the scene before them changed drastically. A fully armed Asgardian army appeared before them.

It turned out that this barrier not only had unfamiliar protective capabilities but also carried a trace of illusion, concealing the size of the army. The Asgardians occupied most of the bridge, while the white-haired Odin rode a strange eight-legged steed, holding a long spear, and stood proudly at the head of the army.

"Asgard welcomes every guest, but you do not seem to be here as guests, so please leave immediately," Odin said loudly.

Mebius chuckled coldly, his imposing manner failing to intimidate her: "If you want us to leave, it's simple. Just give us the Cosmic Cube from your treasure vault. We don't really want to stay here."

The Tesseract is the Space Stone, and like Loki's scepter, the stone is now encased in a shell, which is a characteristic of the cinematic universe. In the comic book universe, the Tesseract and the Infinity Stones would be two completely different items.

Odin's face immediately darkened: "Then it seems you want to see why Asgard is the ruler of the nine realms."

The atmosphere was tense; a battle could break out at any moment.

In fact, Odin didn't really want to fight. After witnessing Mebius defeat the Hulk, he knew that this was definitely a tough opponent. He now had a large and powerful family, while the other party only had a lonely family. If they fought, he would have to take care of many other things. Asgard didn't need to expand its territory at the moment, so it would be a complete loss.

In fact, if Mebius and his group hadn't acted so aggressively, but instead negotiated with him privately, there was a high probability that he would have paid for the Cosmic Cube, since it was just gathering dust in the vault anyway.

If he determines that the group is powerful enough not to use the Infinity Stones for anything reckless, he wouldn't mind losing the stones.

However, it seems that a battle is most likely inevitable. As the ruler of the Nine Realms, he would never allow himself to be threatened.

Spider-Man raises his palm forward, Deadpool draws his twin swords, and Mebius and Tiamat are ready to transform at any moment, each brimming with fighting spirit.

Mebius glanced at the white-clad, white-haired Spiderwoman beside her. She had been a little worried that Spiderwoman was the kind of person who loved peace. After all, given Spiderwoman's taciturn nature, they hadn't discussed any plans before coming. The current conflict was something she had initiated, and the other party might not cooperate. But the situation was quite good now.

On the other hand, Spider-Girl was actually quite happy. She did prefer direct combat to negotiating with people.

Her moral compass is that she only cares about the people around her. If Carl were here, she would definitely try to be more peaceful, but right now there are only Deadpool and two people she's just met, so she's just acting on impulse.

Currently, the only people she cares about are a few in her own world, plus her group chat friends.

Generally speaking, Spider-Man wouldn't cause trouble in the community, since it's his friends' home and he'll be living there long-term. But Deadpool is a special case; he can switch universes at any time and has no sense of belonging.

Of the four, Mebius has no clear moral compass, Deadpool is always stirring up trouble, Spider-Man does whatever he wants, and even the most conscientious Tiamat doesn't have any particular feelings for the Asgardian gods.

Most importantly, none of these people are good at socializing. When asked to find something, their first thought is to forcibly take it. They don't know how to use negotiation, transactions, or win-win strategies at all.

After confirming that everyone on his side was inclined to fight, Mebius transformed into a half-human, half-snake form and went all out from the start.

To be honest, she's not very good at combat, and her grasp of various fighter jets is only average. That's why she often uses artificial collapse to make up for her lack of combat experience by relying on her strong physical strength.

"I've heard you call yourselves the Aesir, so let's see how your natural-born gods differ from those created by humans... This is the moment of ascension to godhood!"

Chapter 329 Rainbow Bridge

Mebius came with great force, intending to forcibly seize the Space Stone from Asgard.

This action thoroughly enraged Odin. Asgard had been at peace for so long that most Asgardians lived before the unification of the Nine Realms.

While Thor and his brothers frequently travel to other worlds to suppress rebellions like those of the Frost Giants, Odin considers these battles mere trifles compared to the true chaos of the Nine Realms, since none of these battles take place on Asgard's homeland.

It wasn't until Odin grew older and began to fall into deep sleep that other races dared to harbor any ambitions. Before that, Odin's title as the ruler of the nine realms and the father of the gods was well-deserved.

Even after Mebius transformed, Odin remained indifferent, standing behind the barrier with his army, showing no intention of intervening.

To the people of Alaska, this monster was the most terrifying creature they had ever seen. Compared to the Frost Giants' Frost Beasts and the Fire Giants' Fire Dragons, even though this snake had the advantage in size, its aura was like that of an infant.

However, under Odin's leadership, these people did not show the slightest panic. They had complete trust in Odin, and as long as Odin was there, they could be united as one.

"What's the point of just hiding in the back? Come out and fight!"

Mebius coiled his snake tail around the ground, then suddenly unleashed his accumulated power like a spring, instantly rushing to the front of the barrier at 300 times the speed of sound.

She doesn't have a Kryptonian biofield, so she can't use too much speed on the planet, but 300 times the speed of sound is enough to keep most creatures from reacting.

The Aesir are naturally several times denser than humans, and after training and growth, they can gradually master a power known as divine power. Even so, few in the army could see Mebius's movements clearly.

When Mebius arrived at the barrier, he was at high speed and only saw that Odin seemed to want to make a move, but it was too slow, too slow.

"As expected, even the same person can have varying levels of strength in different universes. The power of beings in the movie universe is definitely lower compared to other universes. Although the process is a bit boring, just let them lose like this!"

While Möbius was thinking, his hands didn't stop moving; he raised his huge claws and slammed them hard against the barrier.

When Odin set up the barrier, he took into account Mebius's superhuman strength. Therefore, even if it meant sacrificing some defensive power, he designed the barrier to be multi-core. The seemingly unified barrier was actually made up of hundreds of thousands of small magic circles. Even if one part of it was broken, it would not affect the other areas of the barrier at all.

That's the theory.

However, theory is just theory. Mebius has evolved to the level of a superhero in a regular comic book, and she showed absolutely no mercy when breaking through barriers.

With a single claw strike, the small section of the barrier she had hit didn't even have time to sever its connection with other areas. The immense force spread across most of the barrier, and with a deafening roar, the defenses that covered the entire Immortal Palace were almost completely destroyed, leaving only a few pitiful fragments remaining in a corner.

Mebius smiled smugly and launched his next attack directly at Odin, who was riding an eight-legged horse. The two were only two meters apart, and Mebius thought victory was already assured.

But would Odin, a being of Godfather-level combat power and a legend throughout his life, really be defeated without even putting up a fight? Of course not!

Just as Mebius made his move, a brilliant rainbow beam of light erupted from nowhere, engulfing Mebius completely.

"At this moment, the Rainbow Bridge?" Möbius immediately realized and was about to attack the surrounding rainbow light. As long as the surrounding energy was dispersed, the teleportation could be stopped.

But Odin would not allow it. He muttered incantations, and magnificent magical energy burst forth from his body, clearly indicating that he had been planning this for a long time.

Asgardians have a unique characteristic: the older they get, the stronger they become, and Odin, however, is almost at the end of his life!

He periodically falls into a deep sleep, not only to prolong his life, but also to regulate the power within his body. How could a mere 300 times the speed of sound not be enough for him to react? He had already planned his response from the very beginning.

If the ability of the Rainbow Bridge to teleport at will is Asgard's reliance on unifying the nine realms, then the power Odin now wields is the very foundation of Asgard's existence.

The Power of Odin is a power passed down through generations in Asgard. When it reaches Odin, it becomes the Power of Odin; if it reaches Thor, it becomes the Power of Thor.

Odin felt Thor wasn't mature enough. Besides Thor's impulsive nature, a major reason was that Thor hadn't yet mastered Odin's power.

Odin's power formed several rings, binding Mebius tightly from head to toe, rendering her powerless to resist the Rainbow Bridge.

All of this happened too fast. Spider-Child barely managed to react and tried to stop the Rainbow Bridge, but Odin was prepared for this, and Heimdall was watching from the sidelines, ready to interfere at any moment.

Spider hesitated for a moment. Destruction is always easier than construction, and spatial magic is an extremely precise form of magic that cannot tolerate the slightest interference.

Mebius is trapped in the Rainbow Bridge. If I can't completely rescue her, the interference between the two spatial abilities might cause all sorts of problems. With Heimdall's obstruction and the original power of the Rainbow Bridge, success will be no easy task.

Without hesitation, the opportunity slipped away. The Rainbow Bridge only had less than half a second to activate, and Odin's personal intervention to change the time was crucial.

A seven-colored beam of light roared past, and when it disappeared, Mebius was nowhere to be seen either.

In an unknown star field, the Rainbow Bridge flew at an alarming speed, but after a few seconds it began to tremble and then suddenly exploded into pieces.

Without Odin's support, Mebius could quickly break free of the remaining restraints, but even those few seconds would be enough for the Bifrost to carry her into the depths of the universe.

"Damn it, where am I?"

After dispersing the energy of the Rainbow Bridge, Mebius said angrily that she had been too careless and shouldn't have rushed forward so quickly by herself. If she had stayed by Spider-Man's side, she definitely wouldn't have been hit.

"I thought crushing Asgard with the power of Doomsday would be a piece of cake, but I never expected that old man Odin would never have planned to fight me in the first place and sent me to this godforsaken place!"

Mebius was annoyed, but suddenly her expression changed; the place didn't seem as empty as she had imagined.

Odin certainly wanted to send her as far away as possible, but he couldn't predict when Mebius would be able to break free of his restraints.

The place where she landed was not desolate; there were even several merchant spaceships nearby.

Chapter 330 The Destruction of Xandar 4000

The Marvel Universe is not empty; wormholes and warp technology are widespread, shortening the distances between planets. This has led to more frequent exchanges between different races, boosting commercial growth.

In the Marvel Universe, finding a spaceship is incredibly easy if you find the right place. Leaving aside warships, buying and selling ordinary small spaceships in the cosmic market is as frequent as buying and selling cars on Earth.

Although there is constant friction between stars, the overall situation is relatively peaceful, which provides a space for cosmic merchants to live.

The fleet of ships that Mebius encountered was traveling very slowly, with a uniform design and each towing a huge cargo hold, clearly carrying a large amount of cargo, and could be basically identified as merchant ships.

The spaceship's primary means of travel is impulse jump, so this caravan could actually be said to be stationed and resting.

Continuous jumps would put immense pressure on the spaceship's interior, which would be unbearable for both the crew and cargo. Therefore, after every few jumps, the crew would need to rest for a period of time.

Mebius flew toward them without stopping, lest the ships escape.

The universe is neither too big nor too small; it's clear that she's still within the sphere of influence of interstellar society. However, she has neither a star map nor a jump method, so she dares not fly around recklessly.

"Captain, it's almost time. The engines have cooled down again, and the crew has finished eating. We can continue our journey," the caravan's first mate said.

"Hmm." The captain nodded and said, "Three more jumps and we should be able to get back to Xandar. Tell the lads to grit their teeth and try to complete the jumps in one go."

The captain was a middle-aged man who looked no different from an Earthling. He could blend into a crowd without looking out of place. But he was indeed an alien from the planet Xandar.

Xandar is one of the most open and inclusive planets in the entire universe, with people of all races and a highly developed economy.

Where there are people, there is demand and market. As a result, merchants flock here in droves. This group is not the first to transport supplies and is quite experienced.

The captain was relieved to see the warp drive gradually starting up. The universe was not safe, filled with all kinds of natural and man-made disasters. However, they often traveled this trade route and were very familiar with it. In addition, they could be considered a large trade caravan, so space pirates generally did not regard them as targets.

No matter how you looked at it, it was just a very ordinary and smooth mission, and everyone thought so, until they were grabbed by several large yellow hands.
