Bant didn’t continue talking about Ancient One.
“In short, destroying the gemstone is unrealistic at this stage, and it is not that easy to destroy the original stone.”
The energy of the Infinity Stones is enormous. If you want to destroy them, you must use power of the same level to do it.
“My idea is to wait for Loki to come to Earth, and then have him take the Rubik’s Cube back to the Tiangong Association headquarters and seal it for safekeeping.”
“Wait, Loki? Which Loki?”
Steve was stunned.
“He’s the one you beat up in New Mexico. He turned over a new leaf and joined the Tiangong Society.” Bant explained, “The Cosmic Cube had been in Asgard before it fell to Earth. The Asgardians know how to use the Cube and how to put it to sleep.”
At this point, Bant looked at Hill and explained:
“When the Infinity Stones enter their active phase, they emit a special wavelength that resonates with the other stones. When Fury tried to awaken it, the existence of the Cube exposed the location of the Earth.”
“You mean, the Earth might be attacked from space?” Tony asked.
“That’s right. So the Rubik’s Cube is not important. What’s important is how we prepare for the coming war.” Bant said.
Now, everyone’s expressions became serious.
Nick Fury left a mess behind.
But to be honest, even without Nick Fury’s research, the awakening of the original stone was inevitable.
As the axis of the multiverse, Earth has always been a special place.
Tony looked back and forth between Bant and Steve, and then he said unconvincedly, “No one can explain to me the matter of Mr. Loki in Asgard?”
“I’ve only heard of Alaska and Texas Hold’em. I have to say, the dealers there are really good. I’ll take you there to try next time.”
Tony patted Bant’s shoulder and said.
He looked generous, but his tone was as if he was questioning Bant and Captain America, asking which slut you two met behind my back.
“Actually, all of this is in the archives,” said Steve.
“Too lazy to look.”
So Steve had to start over again.
After listening, Tony was about to make some comments when an alarm interrupted him.
The alarm did not come from the H.M.A.M.I.R. mothership, but from the H.M.A.R. communication device on Bant’s body.
Bant placed the communicator on the table.
In an instant, Loki’s stern face was projected.
He looked a little nervous and spoke very quickly.
“Report, this is Loki Odinson, the security officer of the Heavenly Association. We have arrived at the Oort Cloud and are starting to slow down. We are expected to arrive above the atrium in thirty minutes.”
“learn.”
Bant shuts down the communication.
Then he said, “Speak of Loki, Loki is here.”
But Tony and the others looked as if they had seen a ghost.
“Thirty minutes to get from the Oort Cloud to Earth?! Is he serious?”
Steve scratched his head. As the least educated person present, he had no idea where the Oort Cloud was.
“Is there another cloud on Earth that has a specific name?”
“The Oort Cloud is at the edge of the solar system, and it takes light a year to reach it.” Tony felt that he could not communicate with uneducated people.
“Do you understand? This alien spaceship is much faster than the speed of light!”
In response, Bant said, what a fuss, this is the engine of the Taizoman people, kid!
Knowing that Loki was about to arrive, the few of them stopped talking.
Norman opened the energy shield on the outer layer of the aircraft carrier, and a group of people came to the deck and waited for Loki.
Thirty minutes later.
A damaged spaceship broke through the atmosphere and rushed towards the aircraft carrier with thick smoke.
“Is his condition a little bit bad?”
Steve said uncertainly.
“A keen sense of observation is much better than a blind person, Captain!”
Tony rolled his eyes, meaning, even need I ask?
Then he turned his head and looked at Bant: “Is there any way? At this speed, at least one of the aircraft carrier and him will be killed.”
As he was speaking, he saw Loki’s spaceship slowing down.
Norman opened a hole in the energy shield, and the spaceship passed through and crashed onto the deck.
“Now we can ask the Security Council for money again.”
Norman said.
Then, Loki opened the cabin of the spaceship and climbed out in a panic. He was covered in dust and gasping for breath, and looked at Bant with fear in his eyes.
“They’re coming!”
“Who?”
“war!”

Chapter 171 Because Spider-Man Would Do That
Star Wars.
This terrible word lingers in everyone’s ears like an unforgettable nightmare.
“We have just experienced a war, is a new war about to begin?”
“What is going on, Loki?”
Bant helped Loki up. Loki looked at Steve fearfully at first, then he breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that Steve was not holding the hammer.
However, his steps still shifted slightly towards Bant.
He paused, as if he was organizing his words, and then he said:
“It’s the Chitauri.”
“The Chitauri War Lords have submitted to Thanos. They have discovered the energy signal from the Cosmic Cube and are bringing their army to attack Earth.”
“War is coming!”
Loki’s voice sounded a little flustered.
“Calm down!” Bant calmed him down. “How did you know?”
“I met them on the way to Earth.” Loki said fearfully, “They were like locusts, attacking every moving object. I escaped death thanks to the strong engine of the spaceship built by Luma…”
Bant was not surprised by this.
The Chitauri love war.
This can be easily seen from the title of their leader: War Lord.
The only key point is.
“Their marching speed is far slower than that of the spacecraft equipped with the Taizoman engine,” Bant said, folding his arms. “Where did you encounter them?”
Loki recalled and gave a coordinate.
Then he heaved a sigh of relief and said a little embarrassedly: “Sorry, I was too nervous. According to this calculation, it will take about a year for the Chitauri army to reach the earth.”
“Too nervous, too scared, I guess?”
Tony didn’t give him any face.
He turned his head and said, “It seems that we still have enough time to prepare for this war.”
A year or so is enough time to do a lot.
Captain America felt even more tired, and at this moment, he hated Nick Fury so much.
“what can we do?”
Bant lowered his head and thought.
Originally in the movie, the Chitauri invasion began in New York.
The Cosmic Cube is a door that can be opened from one side or the other.
But in fact, not everyone can do this, otherwise it wouldn’t be so difficult for Thanos to find the Rubik’s Cube.
At that time, it was because Loki joined Thanos’s army that he helped the Chitauri open the teleportation channel. Now that Loki is one of them, the Chitauri can only attack from the sky.
It will be much easier once we confirm the enemy’s marching route.
“It seems we have to build a protective barrier that can cover the entire earth.” Bant said after thinking for a while.
“Can it be done?”
Steve’s eyes lit up immediately.
He had already experienced how strong Primus’ energy barrier was.
The only problem is that scaling it up to a size large enough to envelop the Earth is a bit too sci-fi.
If Bant knew what he was thinking, he would die of laughter.
Sci-fi?
You Marvel have already become fantasy!
“How do we solve the energy problem?”
Tony asked.
“We just happen to have a cube with infinite energy.” Bant took out the Rubik’s Cube. Loki’s eyes flickered and he subconsciously reached out to the Rubik’s Cube.
Tony was quick to slap his hand away.
“Wait, this isn’t…”
“No, we fished it out of the sea.” He interrupted Loki’s spell.
Originally, he agreed with Bant to send the Loki Cube to the Tiangong Society for safekeeping, but now it seems that it is not possible.
Without the Rubik’s Cube, where could they find another object with infinite energy to support the energy barrier of the entire planet?
Therefore, the Cosmic Cube has been the property of the Earth since ancient times!
Loki rolled his eyes.
How could he not recognize the things in his own home?
“By the time you figure out how to use the cube, the Chitauri army will have already passed through like a swarm of locusts.”
“Then let Loki participate in the research as well.”
Norman made his decision.
He didn’t trust Loki, but he trusted Bant.
“Besides the Rubik’s Cube, is there anything else you need to prepare?”
“I need at least four satellites as base stations.”
Bant drew a simple picture. In the picture, the earth was in the middle, and four satellites were scattered in different positions. They were connected like a regular tetrahedron that wrapped around the earth.
“Don’t worry, the Security Council will pay for it,” Norman said with a smile.
Things that can be solved with money are not a big deal.
Especially spending other people’s money.
In this case, Bant immediately said, thinking that it would be a bastard not to take advantage of the opportunity:
