Invasion

"So these are the others..."

Compared to the ridiculous discussion, on the Avengers' side, Nick Fury, who was following the battle from a Quinjet, had a complicated expression.

Before coming here, he asked Natasha to meet and convince Dr. Banner who was hiding, finally forming the Avengers, but now it seems that they are still very far from the power, which Asher wields!

"Is that why you always wanted to create the Avengers and restarted research into the Tesseract?"

Next to Nick Fury, Peggy commented.

Her gaze didn't leave the three giants that Asher commanded—except Kyurem, who she had met before; for the remaining two it was the first time she had seen them.

So she can understand a little about Fury's motives.

"He's uncontrollable, and extremely powerful... And he's getting stronger!"

"I bear him no ill will, but....you know, the line between friends and enemies can be very thin sometimes."

Nick Fury said calmly.

Just like he said, he had no malice towards Asher, and even he knew that his existence was beneficial to the world in most cases.

But in the same way he has plans for each member of the Avengers in case they get out of control, he also had plans to deal with Asher, even though now most of the plans don't keep up with the strength he's currently showing, it's not even a It's a personal issue, besides Fury being extremely paranoid, it's part of the job.

So, even now, knowing that all the plans regarding the Cube were influenced by Hydra, Nick Fury did not regret it.

"You're probably right..."

Peggy looked at the battle situation below, and then nodded slightly: "But Fury, you forgot - A powerful ally is still an ally, but his actions can make him an enemy."

"He's on our side, he helped Steve, he helped me, and Tony is his friend."

Peggy looked at Nick Fury seriously - she could understand Nick Fury's motives, but she couldn't agree.

She also knew she couldn't change Nick Fury's mind.

Then....

"I don't think you're fit to be director of S.H.I.E.L.D., Fury – after rebuilding S.H.I.E.L.D., return to the rank of senior Secret Service officer."

She said softly, Nick Fury was silent for a moment, before responding, "Yes, Mistress." "

"The military troops you contacted, let them prepare to withdraw, this side has basically been resolved…"

Peggy originally planned to continue speaking, but midway through her words, her expression changed.

Because suddenly, she saw on the roof of the base... A pillar of bright blue light!

"That was..."

Through the satellite transmission, the two quickly saw the source of the light pillar.

On the roof, Baron Strucker was tinkering with a machine, which was directing a huge amount of energy into the Tesseract!

"That's a gamma ray amplifier!"

Nick Fury recognized it, it was one of the devices invented by Bruce Banner, during his time with the military - the device was capable of releasing concentrated gamma waves that destabilize everything they touch, especially energy fields!

So... He understood the Baron's intentions!

"He wants to detonate the energy contained in the Tesseract - he wants to die, and take us with him!"

"This man is an idiot, right?"

On the battlefield, Asher, who was just watching, also understood Strucker's plans after seeing this scene.

Others may not know, but he knows - The Cube itself is just a shell, what is truly valuable and what it contains...one of the Infinity Stones, the "Space Stone,"!

As an infinite cluster of powers that sustain the universe, it is indeed very difficult to destroy the Jewel.

But... Gamma rays can definitely make you more active!

make the Space Gem more active, it means....

"Boom!"

As the pillar of light rose into the sky, Asher saw that the clouds were dispersed by the energy released.

And in the void of the clouds, a spatial portal slowly opened.

And on the other side of the portal, a huge number of ships seemed to be waiting, waiting for a long time.

In command of the Ships, two figures could be seen.

"Greed, conflict - The weak do not know their limits."

Ebony Maw on the left whispered, "What a ridiculous species, isn't it?" "

While on the right, was the one who said the previous words, a tall man with blue skin and dark lines on his face, carrying a War Hammer.

He is Ronan, The Accuser, member of the Kree Empire, and commander of the Dark Aster.

"According to the agreement, I will only send a tenth of my troops into battle."

He ignored Ebony Maw's contempt for the Earthlings, but looked at the planet on the other side of the portal, with some resentment in his eyes.

Seeing Ronan's expression, Ebony Maw couldn't help but feel disdainful.

He knew that the Kree seemed to have suffered many losses at the hands of a Terran, but he didn't expect that, The Accuser, react this way.

"Lord Thanos sees value in Ronan, but now it seems he's overrated."

After having these thoughts, Ebony Maw also ignored Ronan.

Pointing at the blue planet ahead, the skeletal alien commanded, "Attack."

When numerous alien ships began to leave the portal, densely populating the sky, they caused the two forces below to cease fighting.

Baron Strucjer was, naturally, confused - he was originally ready to destroy the Tesseract, and take everyone with him to the grave.

The Avengers were also confused - the original fight was against Hydra, how did this turn into an alien invasion, what was going on here?

Nick Fury and Peggy Carter are also confused - they were about to win, but suddenly the situation got completely out of control!

In the audience, the only one who wasn't confused was Asher.

Compared to being confused, the emotion in his mind was surprise.

Shouldn't the Chitauri invasion have stopped since Loki didn't fake his death? Even if it were to happen, shouldn't the invasion be in New York? Why was she transferred to Sokovia!

It's more important....

''Because, besides the Chitauri... The Kree are also involved. '

Looking at the biomechanical Chitauri troops, mixed with Kree soldiers, Asher couldn't help but have questions forming in his mind!

Now, the plot... completely deviated from his expectations.
