Chapter 4685: Chapter 3761: Doomsday (17)

This was supposed to be the battle rally, but it directly turned into the symphony of victory. When the other side was completely unprepared, Black Bolt’s shout directly stunned everyone.

By the time the soldiers of the Inhumans rushed over, these three unlucky parachuters were already unconscious. Black Bolt breathed a sigh of relief, then quickly waved his hand and said, "Quick! Drag them into the base!"

Before even getting back to the base, he took out his communicator to contact Earth. "Hello? Chief Zheng? We’ve caught them, there are three in total. When are you coming to pick them up? Alright, got it."

Hanging up the phone, Black Bolt said again, "Stuff those three into the secure cabin first, don’t let them wake up. SWORD will come to get them later."

Meanwhile, on Earth, in the office of the temporary command center, Nick was banging on the table, arguing with Chief of the Spear Bureau Zhengxian. He said, "We agreed to split evenly, now there are three people, and you want two! Why?!"

Zhengxian dug at his ear and said, "Because I don’t have Congress holding me back. Even if they come to me, they won’t be locked in Area 52, never to see the light of day."

"You..." Nick was rarely at a loss for words. He sighed and said, "Fine, you can take all three."

"Why so generous all of a sudden?"

"You have a point. Even if I bring them back, they’ll find a way to take them, lock them up somewhere, and then one day they’ll escape and cause trouble again. Might as well let you take them, and after researching, share some results with me."

"You think you’re being pretty smart, wanting a free ride?"

"You should understand my situation." Nick plopped into his chair and started to wail, "Everyone wants to hold me back, I can’t help it either. S.H.I.E.L.D. and SWORD are like family, we’re not blood brothers but might as well be..."

Zhengxian was obviously disgusted by his antics, had to wave his hand and say, "I can temporarily agree to your plan, but as for what exactly can be researched and what can be shared in the end, I cannot make any guarantees."

Next door in the office, The Avengers were also having a heated discussion. Natasha was the first to speak: "What about our Moon, are we just going to give it up?"

"That’s impossible," Steve said. "No matter what, we can’t give up the Moon. We need a strategic foothold in this Star System, and the Moon is the best choice. As for tides, don’t worry, my old comrade Namor McKenzie will lead the Atlanteans to temporarily control the seas."

"That’s good." Natasha nodded and said, "But the other two Great Empires might send troops over. The Moon has no defenses, what if they want to take it like an easy target?"

"An easy target?" JARVIS, standing nearby, laughed and, as if thinking of something, shook his head and said, "Who’s the easy target, really?"

On the Moon, inside the Inhumans’ base, Star Lord Peter was lying in bed, looking a bit pale. Rocket Raccoon was pouring ice into a cup, then filled it to the brim with sweet soda, handed it to Star Lord, and said, "You just had to show off, didn’t you? Now look where it got you."

Star Lord gulped down several mouthfuls of soda, let out a long breath, his complexion improved a bit, and he shook his head, "I’ve never been good at much, been drifting in the interstellar for so many years, never achieved anything notable, unlike others who’ve contributed here and there to Earth. I finally got a chance to be useful this time, I can’t screw it up."

Gamora, fiddling with a dart in her hand nearby, said, "You should understand that compared to pride, we care more about your well-being. Are you okay?"

"I never thought I’d hear you say this, Gamora, truly amazing." Star Lord grinned and said, "You think I’m going to say that your concern makes me feel much better? Bullshit! My mind is full of crazy ramblings! I’m on the verge of losing it!"

"What’s it called again?" Rocket Raccoon scratched his head and said, "Sanity Points? You’re at the brink! Because you’re always whispering with those mystical entities, you’re being driven insane by them."

Star Lord looked utterly desolate: "I don’t even know why I’m so connected with them, it’s like they’re targeting me. I don’t even have to perform any spells, just think a little and I get a response. I never thought this could actually become an advantage. Anyway, I’ve handed all the stuff I’ve got from them to JARVIS, let’s see if it works."

Meanwhile, in the Interstellar Committee’s conference hall, a consensus was finally reached. The Supreme Wisdom said: "In short, we now need to reinforce the Fierce Feather Star System, apply enough pressure on them. If they make forced mistakes, that would be ideal; if not, at least suppress their arrogance a bit."

"I just don’t believe it!" Lilandra raised her voice and said, "The three most powerful empires in the cosmos joined forces, and they still can’t handle a tiny Earth? I’m going back to mobilize troops immediately!"

"I can’t be as optimistic as you." said the Emperor of the Skrull Empire, "Those humans are completely insane, absolutely nuts. Don’t you have a tradition in your country of ’not arguing with madmen’?"

"It’s not your capital being attacked, so of course you can stand here and talk as if nothing’s wrong!" Lilandra roared at him, "Wait till they come for your home, then let’s see if you can still make sarcastic remarks here!"

"You are mad too." the Skrull Emperor calmly said, "You carbon-based life forms might as well check your brains first."

Lilandra ignored him, storming out of the conference room. The Supreme Wisdom looked at the Skrull Emperor and said, "Have you never thought of taking advantage of their mutual destruction, we could..."

"You know that’s impossible," interrupted the Skrull Emperor, "The rules of the cosmos favor carbon-based life forms; recklessly breaking the balance isn’t good. Besides, even now when we haven’t done anything, Earth is pulling us into the water. If humans and the Shi’ar Empire both come out wounded, they will certainly think we’re one of the culprits for Earth’s destruction. Do you still expect them to have the sanity to distinguish right from wrong?"

After the humans had their bout of madness, the Three Great Empires finally began to act. The Shi’ar Empire began to redeploy troops for defense, and the Kree Empire and Skrull Empire also started reinforcing by using the teleportation point near the Shi’ar Empire in the Fierce Feather Star System.

Undoubtedly, interstellar eyes are focused here, and all civilizations are watching the situation in the Fierce Feather Star System.

You must know, these are the Three Great Empires. This is probably the first time the Three Great Empires have united against something. And what they are up against—most civilizations don’t even know how to describe it, if they had to say, it’s probably "birds of a feather flock together." Look at the troops you brought out, Asgard! Is there even one sane creature among the Nine Major Kingdoms?

It’s not even a poor or remote area; at least more than half the environment in the Nine Kingdoms is quite nice. Asgard, Vanaheim, and Midgard are paradises of fairyland in the cosmos. How does such a talented place not produce a good person?

More civilizations hold a pessimistic attitude. They feel that Earth should take this chance to escape to maximize benefits. Originally, they had no grudge against the Three Great Empires. Even if the Shi’ar had their Shield up while eating, haven’t you already killed them? Now admit defeat and run back to the Nine Major Kingdoms, and the Three Great Empires won’t attack aggressively; if you don’t escape and get trapped here, you won’t be able to leave.

The Shi’ar Empire was just caught off guard, but it doesn’t mean that’s all they are capable of. Their nearest military district and resource equipment base isn’t too far from here. In just a few hours, tens of millions of gravity traps immediately surrounded the star system.

This means that nothing can leave the star system physically, meaning no direct flight out. Now, the way out would be only through dimensional jumps.

But soon after, the counter-jump devices of the Kree Empire entered the scene, also covering the Fierce Feather Star System tightly. This also means that superluminal engines within the device range can no longer perform dimensional jumps. Then comes the spatial blockade devices of the Skrull Empire. Once the space is locked, all wormholes and teleportation portals will immediately fail.

Everyone in the Three Great Empires thought they’d face constant harassment from humans in just setting up these things. But in fact, there was none. To the Three Great Empires’ shock, while they were implementing these blockade measures, Earth was just standing there quietly watching.

Truly just watching, as their eyesight was good. They could see Earth’s surface, the temporary military command center modified from a space station landed in the Pacific Ocean. That group of mutants and superheroes just stood there looking up.

They weren’t ordinary people, quite a few could sense what was happening through the changes in the cosmic magnetic field. But they neither intervened nor harassed; they just stood there quietly watching.

Now, basically, all escape routes have been sealed. Trying to use the thrust of superluminal engines to fly directly out of the star system would hit the gravity traps; dimensional jumps and teleportation portals can’t be used; even Magneto can’t open wormholes anymore. It’s safe to say now Earth is like fish in a barrel, those superhero humans can run but can’t hide.

And after this, the main fleets of the Three Great Empires began to enter. Note, the gravity traps are set on the periphery of the star system, but now the main fleets are entering the interior, heading towards Earth.

The gravity traps surrounding the star system aren’t completely blocked but have paths. It’s a bit like a minefield, only the people who set the mines know exactly which path can go through the minefield, others don’t know. So this path can only be walked by the people of the Three Great Empires, Earth can’t use it.

When they pass the gravity trap area and enter the inner star system, the first thing they see is not Earth, but a lonely Moon. And the Shi’ar’s main battleships are all far away from this little satellite, like they’re hiding far away, trembling.

Lilandra returned to the Palace of the Ferocious Feather Star, looking at the current situation inside the star system, slamming her hand on the table and shouting: "First deal with that damned satellite! Power up all main cannons of the Double God-level flagships! I’ll be damned if I don’t believe it!"
