"Four Infinity Stones?" Captain America frowned. In addition to the Mind and Space gems, there were two more gems on Earth?
"No wonder Earth has become a battlefield! It turns out it's because of these gems!" Tony suddenly realized. He had always wondered why a mere Earth would become the focus of a war that affected the entire universe.
The reason was now clear. Tony was well aware of the principle that an innocent man could be guilty of possessing treasure. Earth might not be able to safeguard so many precious items, so it would naturally attract prying eyes!
At the same time, Thor's words also caused reactions from countless civilizations across the universe. Learning that the Infinity Stones were on Earth, numerous civilizations prepared to make their move. Fortunately, Odin's reputation from his earlier years still had a deterrent effect.
These civilizations did not dare to act rashly for the time being, but they also sent out their own pawns to gauge Asgard's potential response.
Naturally, Odin could not be blind to these movements, but he was powerless to do anything about them. However, he was not dead yet, and the Ancient One was still alive, so Earth would face no problems during this period.
As for after he died? That would no longer be his concern!
[Tony looked at the marks on the ground and complained: "That man has no regard for lawn maintenance. I'm gonna miss him though. And you're gonna miss me. There's gonna be a lot of manful tears."]
[Captain America chuckled: "I will miss you, Tony."]
["Yeah? Well, it's time for me to tap out. Maybe I should take a page out of Barton's book and build Pepper a farm, hope nobody blows it up."]
[Tony stood by the car with his hands in his pockets, talking about his future life.]
[Captain America nodded gently and said, "The simple life."]
["You'll get there one day."]
[Captain America tilted his head: "I don't know, family, stability... The guy who wanted all that went in the ice seventy-five years ago. I think someone else came out."]
[Tony nodded, opened the car door, looked at him and said, "You alright?"]
["I'm home," Captain America looked at the agents in the distance and nodded. Seeing this, Tony's mouth curled up slightly and he got into the car.]
[Natasha still stood there, deep in thought about what to do next.]
[She didn't notice when Captain America came to stand a short distance behind her until he spoke: "You want to keep staring at the wall, or do you want to go to work? I mean, it's a pretty interesting wall."]
[Natasha turned around and walked towards him with a hint of unhappiness: "I thought you and Tony were still gazing into each other's eyes. How do we look?"]
[Captain America handed her the tablet in his hand: "Well, we're not the '27 Yankees."]
[Natasha looked at the tablet and said in surprise: "We've got some hitters."]
[Captain America was noncommittal: "They're good. They're not a team."]
["Let's beat 'em into shape."]
[Captain America pushed open the door, and Rhodes opened his helmet to look at them. Vision, who had his back to them, noticed the movement and turned around.]
[Falcon Sam descended from the sky and folded his wings. Wanda used her magic to slowly land on the ground and looked at Captain America.]
[Natasha stood quietly behind Captain America with her hands behind her back. Captain America looked at these members and said, "Avengers..."]
As the Sky grew quieter, everyone felt a little unsatisfied, even though they already knew that the Avengers would face a civil war and Captain America would have a significant confrontation with Tony and the others at the airport.
Tony also wanted to know why their team was fighting, but unfortunately the TV had not played any relevant content yet.
This made it impossible for them to discover the whole story, which left him feeling very uncomfortable, as if he was being scratched by a cat.
But they could not influence the Sky Screen's behavior, so Tony had to divert his attention to researching new projects, such as Maya's Extremis virus, Helen Cho's cradle, as well as the Tesseract, the Mind Scepter, and other technologies.
Occasionally he also had to go out to deal with Hydra, keeping him very busy.
Originally, Tony didn't have to handle these matters personally and could have left them to Captain America and Rhodes. But when he thought about his father being killed by a Hydra-controlled Bucky, he couldn't help but become furious.
He couldn't take out his anger on Bucky, but he could direct it at Hydra, so whenever they found a Hydra base, Tony would always participate in its destruction.
Meanwhile, Jane Foster was in London. Her best friend Darcy had found a set of very abnormal data. She informed Jane Foster, and Foster, driven by curiosity, came to an abandoned factory in London.
Thor didn't know why Jane suddenly wanted to go to London, but he always supported Jane Foster's scientific research projects. What he didn't know was how much impact this trip would have on her later life.
After arriving here, Jane found something strange. There were containers scattered everywhere and overturned cement trucks. Jane, Darcy, and Ian—Darcy's so-called intern but actually her boyfriend—walked into the factory together.
Since it had been abandoned for a long time, it was very messy inside, and many birds had made their home there.
A figure flashed by the corner of the wall. Darcy looked over there and murmured, "I am not getting stabbed in the name of science."
Then she raised her hands and shouted: "It's okay, we're Americans!"
Jane was a little speechless: "Is that supposed to make them like us?"
A few children emerged from around the corner. Seeing that they were just children, Darcy breathed a sigh of relief: "Oh, they're kids."
"Are you the police?" One of the little girls looked at Jane and asked.
"No, we're scientists. Well, I am," Jane introduced herself.
Darcy, who was standing nearby, heard her words, glanced at her and said helplessly, "Thanks."
Jane looked at her a little embarrassedly.
Another little boy said: "We just found it."
Hearing this, Jane took two steps closer: "Can you show me?"
The children looked at each other. Jane's claim to be a scientist was somewhat convincing, so they took her to the place where they had discovered the anomaly.
They saw a cement truck parked there. A child walked up to it and gently lifted it with just a few fingers, making it float in the air and rotate.
Jane looked at this scene in disbelief, realizing that gravity in this area had undergone some inexplicable changes.
["Thor! Your girlfriend is in trouble. Do you want to go and take a look?"]
The sudden voice of the narrator startled the whole world. This sudden warning made countless people curious about what trouble Jane Foster had encountered.
Thor's face changed, and he immediately turned to look at Tony Stark who was not far away: "Tony! Which direction is London?"
Jane's face also turned grim. She looked at the cement truck floating in the air and exchanged glances with Darcy and the others. Then she decided to lead the children away from this place.
