Chapter 534

~6 min read 1,158 words

A rainbow descended from the sky.

It was the Bifrost.

Watching the Bifrost descend,

Thor was overjoyed.

"Heimdall, I won't return for now; I'll call you later."

Heimdall of Asgard naturally heard Thor's words.

For this, although tempted,

he directly cancelled the Bifrost to Earth.

Seeing the Bifrost vanish after his words, Thor was instantly overjoyed.

He knew this meant Heimdall had heard him.

So he cancelled the Bifrost.

Heimdall is fine, which means the Asgardian realm has encountered no trouble.

That is to say, Tony and the others' earlier guess must have been wrong.

This immediately relaxed his previously worried and tense emotions.

Earlier, he truly feared Jiang Hao had gone to the realm and done something there.

But since Heimdall is fine, it must mean the realm is fine now.

Thor also felt he could return to the realm a bit later.

Then, he ran straight toward Tony and the others.

"Tell me, what is going on here?"

"Hello, Bruce Banner of this universe, Tony, and Captain. We are versions of you from another universe." Bruce Banner was the first to speak.

And Bruce Banner, looking at the massive figure before him, who was completely in his Hulk form,

was utterly stunned.

Because in his view, the Hulk was uncontrollable.

But what situation is this guy in front of him?

Bruce Banner would naturally not mistake the face identical to his own.

"You... you really are me from another universe? Is it a parallel universe?"

"Yes." The Hulk-form Bruce nodded.

Through the Ancient One's explanation, they had confirmed they had not crossed a timeline, but had crossed universes.

Parallel universe, multiverse—they all mean the same thing.

"So, you are me from another universe? You look quite old; your hair has even turned white." Tony Stark of this universe was now also looking at Tony Stark of the other universe.

Yet even seeing a version of himself, Tony Stark still held a shred of doubt.

Moreover, this version of himself was far too old and lacked the sharpness he possessed.

"Indeed, over these years, I have aged far too much. I never imagined that the me from ten years ago was still so young." The Tony Stark from the other universe, looking at the Tony Stark of this universe, spoke with emotion.

When people do not look at their past photos, it is hard to realize they are aging.

And now, seeing a younger version of himself from another universe,

it was no different from looking at a photo.

"How do you prove you are me from another universe?" Tony Stark of this universe spoke up.

Tony Stark from the other world smiled.

He patted his chest once.

The next second, the Mark 50 nanotech armor covered his body at visible speed.

Two seconds later, Tony Stark from the other world had transformed into Iron Man.

Although the appearance of the Mark 50 differed significantly from his current Mark 7.

From the color scheme and basic design, it was clear this was his aesthetic.

So Tony of this universe already believed that this Tony Stark, whose hair had turned somewhat white, was indeed himself from another universe.

Although it sounds exaggerated, even an alien invasion of Earth has happened.

What is so hard to accept about another version of oneself appearing from another universe?

"Very cool. It seems no matter how much time passes, my aesthetic remains unchanged."

"Indeed, very cool." Bruce Banner of this universe, standing nearby, also offered a compliment.

"Hello, soldier."

"Hello, soldier." The meeting between the two Capes was much simpler.

With a simple "Hello, soldier," both men smiled knowingly and believed in each other's identity.

Because only they themselves know themselves best.

"Why have you come from another universe to ours? I imagine you must have encountered trouble." Tony spoke first again.

Meanwhile, Thor nearby had already roughly understood their earlier conversation.

So as soon as Tony finished speaking, he also opened his mouth.

"Hey, I am also part of the Chouzhelian Alliance. If versions of you from another universe exist, then I must exist too. Why hasn't my version from another universe returned?" Thor asked.

"Thor, you certainly did come. I mean, another version of you. But you did not arrive on the same timeline as us; you had another mission. Honestly, seeing you not yet fat makes me quite happy."

"After all, the version of you from another universe who has become fat lacks quite a bit of handsomeness."

"A fat me?" Thor was confused.

"Let's talk about the reason you came over."

"If you are versions of us from another universe, then what happened here today—did it also happen over there?"

Old Captain America nodded.

"Before we discuss other matters, let me first tell you what happened in our universe after this incident, why it happened, and who was behind it. I think you should know this too," Old Captain America said.

Old Tony and Old Bruce Banner raised no objections.

As for Ant-Man Scott Lang, he was a new addition to the Avengers and had no right to speak up or make decisions at this moment.

And the Ancient One did not stop Old Captain America and the others.

Because once they had opened the passage to the multiverse, 0. …

whatever they did next would be meaningless.

Once the passage is opened, it is very difficult to close again.

For the Avengers of this universe, knowing some of what will happen in the future is a good thing.

He had no reason to stop them.

Soon, Tony and the others in this world learned of their 'future'.

When they learned that this New York incident was only the beginning,

the mastermind Sa De Nuo would eventually succeed in gathering all six Infinity Stones and snap his fingers, wiping out half of the universe.

Everyone's expression turned grim.

Even Thor was no exception.

"So, your goal this time is to come to our universe, find the six stones, and save your world?" Young Tuo Ni said.

"That's right." Old Captain America nodded.

"However, upon coming here this time, we discovered some differences between your world and ours."

"In our world, no one named Jiang Hao ever appeared. As we just said, after the war ended, Thor took the Tesseract back to his Asgard."

"It was only later, when Asgard was destroyed, that the Tesseract fell into Sa De Nuo's hands."

"Sa De Nuo then launched a full-scale invasion of Earth, and then, we failed."

"Asgard was destroyed?"

"Wait, what do you mean by Asgard being destroyed?" Thor looked somewhat stunned.

Because what Captain America and the others had just said concerned only events on Earth and made no mention of Asgard.

So Thor knew nothing about what would later happen to him.

He never expected that the news about Asgard he now heard would be that Asgard had been destroyed.

Afterwards, Old Captain America spoke separately about Thor's fate.
