Galacta's words to the Superheroes on Earth were quite simple: she wanted them to rescue Galactus.
The Superheroes had never even heard of'super artifacts.' Although they already possessed several infinity stones, only a few of them truly understood the power of the infinity stones. They knew even less about other artifacts.
As for Decapitation Tactics, even the Three Great Empires hadn't located the high-ranking members of the Zerg, let alone these Superheroes?
Only Galactus was someone the people of Earth could definitely find. Not to mention that Hank Pym was now almost half a Herald of Galactus, Galacta, as Galactus's daughter, would certainly have a way to find her old man.
Thus, the Superheroes on Earth naturally had only one path: to rescue Galactus.
Of course, the Superheroes on Earth weren't that foolish. Phoenix was the first to speak up.
"Although Galactus is powerful, is he really that important for dealing with the Zerg?"
"You know, he was defeated by the Zerg immediately and is now a prisoner. Even if we rescue him, what good would it do? To be captured again?"
Hearing this, Galacta was a bit displeased. Although the Little girl and her father had always had conflicting views, she couldn't tolerate others speaking ill of her father.
"That's only because Father was severely injured at the time and had no energy within him!" Galacta waved her arms and said, "If Father were at his peak, he alone would be enough to resist the Three Great Empires!"
To say that Galactus alone was equivalent to the three great cosmic empires was certainly nonsense. However, with Galactus's strength in his normal state, he could at least be equivalent to half of them. Otherwise, the three great cosmic empires would have long since killed this fellow who went around eating planets.
But in reality, even with Galactus, it was hard to say whether they could defeat those Zerg. A full-power Galactus was rumored to be able to instantly destroy anything, but Shin had never seen it.
However, as one of the six great cosmic Rule Deities, Galactus himself had a mysterious connection with the universe and understood it far better than ordinary Cosmic Civilizations, knowing many secrets. Perhaps he had a method to deal with the Zerg, so Shin was more supportive of Galacta's suggestion.
As for the other Superheroes, they discussed amongst themselves, with most still not having much trust in Galactus.
Finally, Hank Pym stepped forward to vouch for Galacta and Galactus, and the group of Superheroes reluctantly agreed.
Although the matter was agreed upon, how to get to the universe was another problem. Galacta had a lot of high-tech, but Earth's production capacity was insufficient. Even building spaceships or spacetime portals at the fastest speed would take a year and a half.
If it really took a year and a half, there would be no need to rescue Galactus; by then, the Zerg would likely be nearing Earth.
If Shin went alone, he could fly there directly. With his currently improving speed, he could directly fly into hyperspace and perform space jumps. Even though the Zerg were far away, for him, it would be less than a day's journey.
If he brought Phoenix, Scarlet Witch, and Hulk, it would probably take too long. As for bringing all the Superheroes? Then everyone might as well stay on Earth, prepare their defenses, and wait for the Zerg army.
Some Superheroes simply didn't have the ability to fight in space; forcing them to participate in a cosmic war would only bring trouble upon themselves.
After some discussion, Doctor Doom, the villain who had been called over again this time, proposed a solution.
Some time ago, after The Ancient One "died," Doctor Strange only served as Sorcerer Supreme for a short period, after which there was another battle for the Sorcerer Supreme title.
Doctor Doom, a great master of magic, naturally participated and met Doctor Strange. The two fought for 300 rounds, with no clear victor, both spitting blood. Afterwards, they both felt that using magic was too damaging and wanted to resolve the issue peacefully.
Doctor Doom asked Doctor Strange to go to hell with him—this was literally going to hell—to rescue his mother's soul from the Hell Lord Mephisto.
Naturally, Mephisto in hell was the same concept as The Ancient One on Earth or Dormammu in the Dark Dimension. These two ignorant and fearless newcomers were certainly beaten black and blue. The two fought with all their might, plus a bit of luck, to carve out a bloody path and barely escape hell.
The rescue mission was naturally out of the question, but Doctor Doom also honored his initial promise and did not contend with Doctor Strange for the title of Sorcerer Supreme again.
The two thus became acquainted through battle and formed a bit of a relationship. Although Doctor Doom wasn't significantly ahead of Doctor Strange in magic, if technology was also considered, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say he even surpassed him.
But as a Rogue Magician, his understanding of this world was far less than Doctor Strange's. And because of that experience, he gained some understanding of the magical forces on Earth.
"Perhaps we can borrow the bifrost from Asgard. I remember that Kamar-Taj should have records of the spatial path to Asgard."
The Ancient One could casually open a portal directly to Asgard, but the current Doctor Strange didn't have that ability. He wasn't even very clear which way Asgard's door opened.
Fortunately, Kamar-Taj's records were very complete, even including various spatial passages to the Nine Realms. Although Doctor Strange only mentioned it briefly to Doctor Doom, he didn't tell Doctor Doom the location of the spatial passages. But at such a critical juncture, with so many Superheroes coming to him, Doctor Strange would presumably not refuse.
"Kamar-Taj, where is that?" Some Superheroes, like Captain America and Spider-Man, looked confused.
However, many people knew about Kamar-Taj, such as Storm, Professor X, or Tony Stark, who had experienced the mjolnir incident.
This group explained a bit, giving the other Superheroes a rundown. Spider-Man listened and couldn't help but say, "Mages, gods, and all that sounds so cool, but is our world really this dangerous now?"
"It shouldn't have been this dangerous before," Black Widow said with a half-smile. "Ever since certain super scientists appeared here."
Richards immediately shrank his head, but in reality, Black Widow didn't know that the Zerg were brought by Mr. Fantastic; she was actually talking about Tony Stark!
