"What did you say?!" Nick Fury looked at Black Widow in front of him, he stood up from his office chair, walked around the table, came to her, and then said: "The mutants of the raid squad didn't die, and the consciousness bodies invaded the factory system?!"

The main universe Black Widow nodded and said: "I have sent the relevant evidence to you, you can find professionals to judge. But you should also know that we have no need to lie on this issue."

Nick wiped his face hard: "Can they control the Mother Mold?"

"To be honest, we don't know either," Black Widow shook her head and said. "But mutants are always stronger than we imagine; just how they survived in that situation and uploaded their consciousness is something no one can study clearly. Perhaps this is their plan?"

The last sentence obviously poked Nick hard, his face turned gloomy, and he gritted his teeth and said: "This must be Professor X's conspiracy, only he can do it."

Black Widow now thought so too, after all, transforming from a human with a physical body into a consciousness body and invading a system looked like Professor X's research field. All of humanity had been played by him.

"I will notify the Avengers," Nick said. "You two sides sit down and talk properly, don't always fight and kill. After all, if it's really too late to save, you might have to join forces to save the Earth."

"It's not that bad yet," Black Widow said. "The Mother Mold isn't that easy to control either; perhaps they are still in a tug-of-war, and we still have a chance to eliminate those consciousness bodies."

"I hope so." Nick shook his head.

After a while, the Avengers teams from the two universes sat together and looked at each other in silence. The main universe Captain America cleared his throat first and said: "Let us talk about this operation..."

This opening wasn't good, but there was no problem, after all, all they could talk about was this operation. The local Avengers team obviously still had grievances and didn't want to cooperate too much. But they also knew that if mutants quietly gained an advantage in places they didn't pay attention to, then in order to level the score, they could only cooperate.

This news also spread rapidly within the human government—the fact that mutants were very likely to use the raid squad's consciousness bodies to obtain control of the Red Door Orchid factory was the most terrible bad news they had heard recently. Because, the nature reserve had already been established.

Originally, mutants suffered heavy losses and had no threat to the Earth and human government, so letting them build a nature reserve and amuse themselves was fine. As a result, mutants had been moving quite a lot recently, recruiting new members, and shouting the slogan "not abandon any mutant."

Originally this was nothing, after all, their strength was greatly lost, and even if they were constantly recovering, it would take a long time to turn over; they were no longer the most important big enemy.

But who knew, they not only didn't lose, but gained an advantage in places humans didn't know, and then superimposed with the progress made on Earth, they became the most terrible enemy again. Then what else is there to say? Let's unite!

Human government is like this, a plate of loose sand when there is no external enemy, wishing to pinch others to death; but once there is strong external pressure, they unite instantly and start thinking about new plans to deal with mutants.

Striking the local area is also a way, but this cannot prevent the evil consequences of the Red Door Orchid factory being controlled. Even if all mutants on Earth are killed, those in the factory system can still avenge them, so they can only find a way to eliminate those in the factory.

However, in order to fight for the factory before, the laboratory coordinates were sold, all researchers disappeared, and the newly recruited researchers didn't take over the work so quickly. That is to say, the factory is actually not controlled by anyone now, and what humans can do to it is very limited.

"Open the permission for external defense devices!" The main universe Iron Man slammed the table and said to Nick Fury, "We must first enter the internal system before we can kill that bunch of mutants."

"The risk is too high," Nick frowned and said. "How can you guarantee that you won't take the opportunity to control the factory?"

The main universe Iron Man was thinking exactly this—after eliminating the mutants, he would control the Red Door Orchid factory himself. But of course he couldn't say that, he just paused slightly, then said: "Just open the external defense permission, it's not letting you completely shut down the Mother Mold's security. Now the enemy is already inside, what value does the external defense permission have?"

The local Avengers team also agreed with this view. Now it's like a cockroach entering a room, it's a mess inside, but the door is locked tightly, and people outside want to save but can't.

What's more, mutants aren't cockroaches, more like Godzilla. At this time, the door has no meaning of existence; if you don't open it quickly, are you waiting for Godzilla to eat the buffet inside?

No one present had a correct understanding of how strong the Mother Mold was, after all, they weren't mutants and hadn't raided the Red Door Orchid factory. Even the two Iron Men who understood technology didn't have core data, so they couldn't accurately judge what the situation was inside the factory system now. They could only guess in the worst direction.

The strength of mutants is well known, not to mention the masters who went this time. If it was their guess before that this was Professor X's conspiracy, then they were prepared, and I'm afraid they were already pressing the Mother Mold and fighting. If they don't go to help quickly, they can just wait to collect the Mother Mold's corpse.

Of course, the movement Magneto made was also seen by them as a diversion—what saving consciousness bodies, what not abandoning any mutant, was all to delay the time for the Earth coalition.

Before it was promoting the failure of the raid squad, and then selling misery at the UN General Assembly to engage in a nature reserve, all were relying on showing weakness to delay time for the real conspiracy. Do they think we will be fooled again?

The more the mutants make a big fuss, the more the Earth coalition feels they are just performing, maybe they want to take the opportunity to help those consciousness bodies during the rescue, and take the Mother Mold from inside and outside. Absolutely cannot give them such an opportunity.

In an emergency, Nick no longer opposed it, he said: "I will apply, I think it won't be long before it's approved. However, you two must go together."

He meant the two Iron Men, because they could supervise each other and not let the other party move hands and feet on the Mother Mold. They were incompatible like water and fire, and once they saw the other party moving hands and feet, they would definitely do it, so it would be safer.

This plan was supported by most people. However, the human government obviously thought more, and after Nick submitted the application, the Secretary of State's office immediately called.

"This is still not safe enough," the person on the other end of the phone said. "I hope you can contact the other Iron Man who appeared that day, the guy wearing blue and white armor. He can suppress the other two Iron Men. If it's the worst case, let him control the Red Door Orchid factory, which can avoid the Stark Group getting more technical data."

Nick was also thinking about this problem. He was on the side of the Avengers in his heart, but it was a different matter if it was the Stark Group. The military and government had been suppressing the Stark Group, worrying that Iron Man would make any breakthroughs in technology and interfere with the normal order of ordinary human society. Now that they had to use him, they must also prevent him from obtaining technical upgrades from the Red Door Orchid factory.

Having another Iron Man to guard against him wasn't enough, after all, it seemed that their technical level was half a catty to eight taels, and if they didn't stop him, the United States would have another rising sun. This was obviously something the government and military couldn't accept, so they had to introduce stronger foreign aid.

"I will try to contact him," Nick said. He knew that the military and government were best at losing both sides; if they didn't follow their meaning, they might not hand over the key, preferring everyone to finish together rather than letting the Stark Group gain everything.

Hanging up the phone, Nick had a headache again—how to contact that Iron Man was a problem. Listening to the main universe Avengers, that special Iron Man was on Krakoa, but they formulated this plan precisely to deal with mutants, so do they still have to call Krakoa to find someone?

The main universe Avengers stayed on Earth, and S. H. I. E. L. D. arranged them in another dormitory. After they left, the local Avengers discussed it.

"The main universe bunch is really annoying," the local Iron Man said angrily, "I don't know what they are proud of."

"Look at it, if we were the main universe, we might also be very proud," Winter Soldier shook his head.

Captain America held his shield, sat in a chair, frowned and thought about something, and after a while opened his mouth and said: "Where did their Doctor Strange go?"

"Maybe he didn't come?" Spider-Man guessed, "I didn't see him when I went to Krakoa last time. Maybe he didn't come over from the main universe at all, after all, there must be someone left to defend, right?"

As soon as he said this, everyone's eyes fell on his face. Spider-Man turned his eyes and asked: "What's wrong? Did I say something wrong?"

"You went to Krakoa?!" Hawkeye looked confused, "When did you go?!"

"Just before, I know the Iron Man of the central universe, I wanted to find him to chat, so I called the number on the Krakoa official website and said I wanted to visit. After filling in the identity information, they let me go up."

Black Widow couldn't help but cover her forehead, sighing: "Really one dares to apply, one dares to agree."

"Don't make trouble, he is Spider-Man," Dr. Banner said, "He can go anywhere in this world, no one will doubt him."

At this time, Nick rushed in appropriately, looked at Spider-Man and said: "You know that Iron Man of the central universe? You even met him? And chatted with him?"

Spider-Man nodded and said: "Yes. Because I think it's best for him to get control of the Red Door Orchid factory—the central universe's technological level is high, he doesn't need the technology of the Red Door Orchid factory, and he isn't the kind of person who likes to interfere with other universes. It's safest for him to get the factory."

Nick couldn't help but widen his eyes; Spider-Man's idea was too forward-looking, they were thinking of doing this now. So he asked anxiously: "Then what did he say?"

"He naturally refused," Spider-Man put his elbows on his legs, flipped his hand, and then said, "He said this can't solve the fundamental problem, the contradictions between our Avengers, the main universe Avengers, the human government, and mutants cannot be eliminated by his strong control; technology cannot solve all problems."

"Wait a minute," Captain America stretched out a hand, "Are you sure you are describing Tony Stark? Is the Iron Man of their universe really not some other..."

"Steve!" Iron Man shouted dissatisfiedly.

"That doesn't sound like you either," Doctor Strange also commented sharply on the side, "If someone went to find you at this time, you would be crazy with joy, right?"

Iron Man hugged his arms and turned his head away without speaking.
