Chapter 3703: Doomsday (Part 7)

Although the Milky Way is relatively remote and the surroundings are desolate, with no decent civilizations, the Nine Realms are also relatively famous in the interstellar space. In order to monitor Asgard's movements at all times, the three great empires have established outposts on the edge of the Milky Way. If they want to send people to the Milky Way, they will teleport directly to the outposts.

But coming to the Milky Way doesn't mean they can directly enter the Nine Realms, because the dimension they can teleport to is a relatively desolate dimension, basically with nothing.

The structure of the Nine Realms is relatively special, anyone using jump technology can only enter Asgard. That is to say, people outside the Nine Realms have no way to directly teleport to places like Midgard or Vanaheim, they must go to Asgard to transfer.

To teleport into Asgard, one must have the consent of the current God King of the Aesir. This is not to say that they added any defensive magic to Asgard, but that the nature of the World Tree is like this. This defense comes from cosmic rules, even the three great empires cannot be exempted.

And if you don't use jump technology and drive directly in, you will never be able to enter the range of the real Nine Realms, because they cannot enter the dimension where the World Tree is located at all, and can only spin around in this desolate dimension.

Those cosmic civilizations that received Loki's invitation, if they want to come, must reply in advance, so that they can get the jump permission. If the spaceship is not on the whitelisted permission list, and they insist on jumping, then all consequences are at their own risk.

It's easy to say if they can't jump in, but once they are interfered with by world rules, leading to jump engine failure, and jumping into some very dangerous dimensional cracks, they will definitely be finished here, because there are some dangerous areas in the Nine Realms that even Odin wouldn't easily set foot in, and Thor would even less likely go to fish them out.

But the World Tree's whitelist verification system is very backward, not only needing to be verified one by one, but also in a designated area. That is to say, everyone drives to the vicinity of the Milky Way, and still has to squat here and wait for a while to line up to jump in. Last time Asgard gathered civilizations for a meeting, many civilizations complained about this point: what era is it, and the bandwidth is still so low. It's like building a house of thousands of square meters, getting a one-meter-high gate, and still having to squat and enter one by one.

But complaints are complaints, and there is no way. The three great empires all squat and enter, and others can only honestly line up.

Generally speaking, the three great empires are the first to arrive. They generally only come when there is a major event, relatively speaking, it is more important, and the efficiency and safety of the engine are relatively good. If the small civilizations are allowed to come first, in case the engine has any problems and blocks the door, everyone doesn't have to go in.

Today is about the same. The three great empires are still the earliest to arrive, all sent a main warship and several escort warships, in the order of the Skrull Empire, the Kree Empire, and the Shi'ar Empire, lining up to accept whitelist verification and preparing to jump.

Although the three great empires all have super-light engines, the forms of their super-light jumps are a bit different. In short, the Skrull Empire flashes white light and then makes a "buzz" sound, and the spaceship disappears; the Kree Empire flashes blue light twice, makes no sound, and then disappears; the Shi'ar Empire has golden light from weak to strong, makes a very subtle buzzing sound, and then disappears.

The Skrull Empire main warship, which is first in line today, after waiting for about tens of seconds of authentication, disappeared with a "buzz" sound.

The Kree Empire saw him leave, and drove forward a bit, also preparing to jump. As a result, this double flash just turned on, and heard a "buzz" sound again, and the Skrull Empire's spaceship came back.

The Supreme Intelligence controlling the spaceship simply had a head full of question marks, no, buddy, are you a dog thrown away by a revolving door? How did you jump back again?

Although not in a hurry, he still controlled the fleet to retreat a bit, maintaining a safe distance. Although the two countries are at war, they can't fight at the door of the Nine Realms, otherwise what if Odin runs out to mediate?

The Supreme Intelligence controlled the spaceship to retreat, and as soon as he turned his head, the Skrull Empire's fleet was also retreating, and while retreating, it was flashing double lights, meaning to let the Kree Empire's fleet go first.

The Supreme Intelligence couldn't figure it out, we two old bones have been fighting for half a lifetime, you only now think of being polite and humble, isn't it a bit too late?

He felt that it might be that the fleet sent by the opposite side was a bit too old, and the jump system had a problem. Anyway, everyone has to go over in the end, it doesn't matter who is first and who is last, so he stepped forward and prepared to jump.

The Shi'ar Empire behind him was also a bit confused, what are you two doing here? Jumping in and out, are you doing a three-step jump?

The Kree Empire jumped, the Shi'ar Empire didn't think much, so it stepped forward, the jump system preheated, and the golden light lit up. As a result, they saw a double flash in front, and the Kree Empire also came back.

The Kree Empire flashed double lights again, silently retreated to the side, and let the Shi'ar Empire go first. The captain of the Shi'ar Empire also thought about the same as the Supreme Intelligence, thinking that the spaceships of these two old men were broken. Anyway, whoever goes in first is the same, it's the same if I go in first.

Only Mystique, who had transformed into the first mate, always felt that something was wrong. The Skrull Empire and the Kree Empire are old machine empires, and I have never heard that the jump system can be broken. But if it's not that the spaceship is broken, is it that Asgard is broken? Should not be, right?

Just in the two seconds she was thinking, the captain had already pressed the jump button, and "whoosh," the fleet jumped over, smoothly and steadily.

Mystique breathed a sigh of relief, didn't nothing happen? It made her think that something was wrong with Asgard. Sure enough, those two machine civilizations are unreliable, and even such a basic jump can be... wait, what is that?

The spaceship command room has a 270-degree transparent porthole. After the light of the jump engine dissipated, everyone subconsciously looked forward. The Asgard empty island is still mysterious and ethereal, magnificent and beautiful—but what is that blue sphere on the edge of the main island??!

Because Mystique was standing behind the captain, she didn't see clearly what it was. She just wanted to see it carefully, the captain slammed the jump button, "whoosh," and the fleet jumped back to the entrance again.

The fleets of the three great empires looked at each other.

In the command room of the Shi'ar Empire main warship, the captain had an expression as if he had seen a ghost, and found that he had come back, and actually breathed a sigh of relief. And Mystique also reacted afterwards, what she had just seen.

That wouldn't be her dear mother planet, right?

She said how the fleets of the Skrull Empire and the Kree Empire jumped over and jumped back in an instant. This is really seeing a ghost!

The captains of the fleets sent by the three great empires are not fuel-efficient lamps. Now is the critical moment of the war between the three armies, no matter what Asgard called them over to discuss, they must guard against it. Not only guard against Asgard, but also guard against the other two great empires. Those who can be ordered to carry out the initial mission at this time are all elites among elites.

The most powerful thing about this group of people is that they know the universe like the back of their hand. Which areas in the universe are safe, which areas are dangerous, which civilizations can borrow the road, which civilizations should stay away as soon as possible, which civilizations run if they don't run when they see them, are not only recorded in their brains, but also engraved in their instincts. The captains of the warships of the three great empires reacted one by one faster than the other. The moment they saw Earth, they directly performed a reverse jump and ran back on the spot.

Although the posture is a bit embarrassed, at least their lives are still there. Moreover, it's not just one person who is embarrassed, didn't all three run back?

The three great empires are not stupid at all. The moment they saw Earth, they realized what the other side wanted to do—isn't this purely coming to set us up?

Asgard sent invitations widely to call us over, thinking that he was finally willing to help one side. When they drove their spaceships over swaggeringly, Earth lay there and said that your fleet caused irreparable radiation damage to our Earth. What can you do?

Earth lay there asking for compensation, if they don't give it, the reckless men of Asgard will rush out and beat them up on the spot. Where can you reason then?

The captain of the Shi'ar Empire was so angry that his nose was crooked, and the two dog-raising things in front of him were one worse than the other. You have already seen what that thing is, and you would die if you reminded me?! And pretending that your engine is broken and reversing there! Isn't it just not wanting to be scared alone?

Just at this moment, the communicator in Mystique's hand rang. She answered it, took a look, saluted the captain and said: "Captain, the communication team reported that Asgard called. Should I connect it?"

"Connect! I want to see what tricks they are playing!"

Although the words were very hard, when Loki's face appeared on the screen, the captain still tried his best to squeeze out a smile and said: "Good morning, Prince Majesty. We..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Loki, Loki said very impatiently: "What are you doing blocking the door? There are guests behind, didn't you see that the door can't be stopped? Hurry up and come in!"

The captain was shocked, no, are you not even pretending to set people up now? What is your attitude???

"Are the spaceships of the three of you broken together?" Loki frowned, "Forget it, you move your fleet to the other side first, don't block the road here. Then I will send a warship to pick you up."

After speaking, Loki hung up the communication. The captain was a bit confused: if Asgard wanted to use Earth to blackmail people, why wouldn't they let their own fleet enter? If only people went in, even if Earth is very close to Asgard, it can't set them up. How can these few people affect Earth?

At the same time, Mystique had already thought that this was a two-headed blocking strategy. If you drive the spaceship into the Nine Realms, Earth can come to set you up; but if you don't drive the spaceship into the Nine Realms, it is equivalent to the warship being scrapped. Then if something goes wrong, who can run?

Even if the people who come are all elites, the individual combat power is not good, and they can't beat an Asgardian general even if they are together, and they can't even run. Abandoning the warship that has attack, defense, and retreat capabilities, isn't it that others are the knife and I am the fish?

This strategy doesn't look like something Asgard can think of. Mystique thought, it is estimated that it is humanity's idea again, it is simply too cunning. But she likes it.
