Boom boom boom…
A large transport plane slowly descended from the sky. Developed by Stark Industries, the large transport plane not only had a much larger cargo capacity and faster speed than conventional aircraft, but also no longer required an airport for takeoff and landing. As long as there was a slightly flat surface available, it could land immediately.
The door of the transport plane opened automatically. Tony was the first to walk out. Behind him, a team of Iron Legion drones immediately began unloading the cargo with swift and rapid movements.
Seeing Tony's arrival, Thor immediately came forward and gave Tony a bear hug that caught him completely off guard. After a moment, he let the grinning Tony down.
Looking at Thor carefully, Tony immediately smiled and said to him, "Thor, it has been a long time since we last met. You have changed quite a lot. Your hairstyle is nice. I personally think it looks better than your original long hair. Also, your eyes... are they real? Or is it the custom of you Asgardian kings to cover your eyes like this?"
If a stranger had said this, Thor would have punched them without hesitation. But Tony said it without causing any offense. Thor laughed heartily. While hugging Tony and walking inside, he said to him, "My eye was destroyed by my sister, but that is not a big deal. Let me take you to see an old friend."
Half dragging and half guiding, Thor brought Tony to the vicinity of their makeshift wooden house. He immediately saw Banner drawing a house plan on the ground.
Seeing Banner there, Thor immediately laughed and called out, "Banner, look who is here."
Subconsciously turning his head, Banner saw Tony approaching. He immediately walked up to him and hugged him tightly, making Tony stick out his tongue repeatedly in discomfort.
"Banner, Banner, have you been infected by the Hulk? How come you are so strong now? And why do you and Thor like to hug me so much? I am already Pepper Potts's person, so you have no chance with me."
Letting go of Tony, Banner looked at him and said excitedly, "Tony, it has been a long time since we last met. I went to other places before, and I really missed you."
"Do not leave if you missed us so much. Your position at the lab is reserved for you."
"Okay, if I have a chance, I will definitely go back to see you."
The three of them walked into a small wooden house and sat down. Valkyrie poured three glasses of water for them. The cups were all carved out of wood.
Looking at the wooden cup in his hand, Tony examined it with some curiosity. Then he asked Thor and Banner, "Sebastian did not tell me clearly before. Are you planning to officially settle on Earth? What about Asgard itself?"
"Asgard came with us. You can understand that the dimension where Asgard is located has become its most primitive state. It has become a completely closed space. Now there is only one entrance and exit on this island, so I plan to build this island and the Asgard dimension inside into our new home."
Nodding in understanding, Tony said, "In that case, there is no big problem. After the Illuminati meeting is over this time, you can join us officially. Then Reed will come forward to deal with this matter with those bureaucrats in the World Security Council. At worst, I can spend some money to buy the island outright."
"Thank you very much, Tony."
"It is nothing, these are small things. But I can vaguely feel that Sebastian seems to be preparing for something recently. I asked him several times but he did not tell me anything. Do you know what he is preparing for?"
Hearing Tony's words, the smiles on Thor and Banner's faces faded a little. Looking at Tony seriously, Thor said, "We do not know about this either. But I do know that Sebastian seems to be collecting a large amount of magical materials. As for what he is going to do specifically, I am not very clear about it."
Tony nodded slowly and sighed helplessly. He was about to say something more, but his face suddenly changed. He immediately reached out and pressed the glasses on his face. Some urgent information immediately appeared on the lenses.
"Thor, Banner, the Illuminati has an urgent matter. I am leaving now. Once the unloading is complete, my Iron Legion will return on their own. You do not need to worry about them. I am leaving now."
Seeing Tony's serious expression, Thor immediately stood up and asked with concern, "Tony, do you need my help?"
Shaking his head, Tony said, "No, this is within the Illuminati's purview. We can handle this on our own."
As soon as he finished speaking, Tony stood up and gently tugged at the inner cord of his suit. The fabric immediately clung to him. He pressed the device on his chest, which instantly lit up. A swarm of nanobots quickly covered Tony's entire body, forming a suit of Iron Man armor.
Nodding to Thor and Banner, Tony soared into the sky. A portal appeared in the air above, and Tony flew through it, disappearing before Thor and Banner.
When Tony arrived at the T-Fortress, he saw Reed already standing at the control panel. On the screen in front of the console, two spaceships, one large and one small, were approaching Earth.
"Reed, what is going on?"
Tony's visor automatically opened as he finished speaking.
"Two unidentified spacecraft, targeting Earth."
"Find a way to contact them. At least before we intercept them, we need to know their exact purpose."
Nodding, Reed replied, "I am already trying to contact them, but they have not answered our communications yet."
"So, wait until they reach defense level three and intercept them immediately. Do not threaten their lives for now, just give them a warning. If they reach defense level two and still do not respond, do not hold back and destroy their spacecraft's power systems."
"Understood!"
Meanwhile, as Tony and Reed finished discussing their response strategy, the Guardians of the Galaxy, Loki, and the others aboard the two ships were also engaged in a heated discussion. They were amazed by the defense satellites orbiting Earth in lunar orbit. Neither when Peter left Earth nor when Loki arrived previously had they seen anything like them.
"Loki, do you know what these things are?"
"I do not know, but they should be something like defensive measures. The last time I came to Earth, they did not have these things."
"Then what should we do? Do we need to wait outside for a while? It seems that the spacecraft has received some kind of communication signal, but the technology of both sides is different. I need some time to analyze the signal."
Listening to Rocket's words, Peter took a deep breath and spoke directly, "Let us go straight to Earth. Time is running out. We have been delayed many times already. Gamora is in danger every moment we waste. We cannot wait any longer!"
