Valkyrie of the Marvel Universe

Chapter 370 Gu Yi is a Weak Chicken
In the evening, at the welcome party, the gorgeous banquet hall is filled with exquisite food and drinks.The guests, dressed in beautiful dresses and suits, talked and laughed in low voices while listening to the beautiful music.Laughter, clinking glasses and conversation filled the ballroom.But in fact, everyone's attention was focused on the distinguished guests in the center of the banquet hall, with different thoughts.

However, in this joyful atmosphere, Steve and the others had forced smiles on their faces, as if they were not as happy as the others.

All the guests had seen the pictures of the Reality Gem, but sadly, none of them had seen this gem.

The Avengers aren't sure if what they're saying is true, but lying speaks for itself.

After the dinner was over, the Avengers thanked Mayor Hanas again, and then went to stay in the hotel prepared for them, and started to get busy with business.Everyone gathered in Steve's room, turned on the anti-eavesdropping device, and asked:
"How is it? Friday, do you have any relevant information?"

"According to the monitoring of all the participants and other celebrities in the political and business circles who did not attend the banquet, most of them are discussing the issue of reality gems with relatives or friends, but judging from their conversations, they are the first This is the first time I heard about this gem, and I have never seen it before. I have not found any clues about the gem of reality for the time being." Friday replied sternly.

Steve took a sip of the espresso that Natasha poured for everyone, and refreshed himself, "Then continue to monitor, focusing on those who cannot escape the suspicion. If you have any news, please report to us at any time."

"If the gem is not in the hands of those rich people, is it somewhere in a remote wilderness, or buried somewhere?" Natasha frowned, feeling a little tricky.

"That's terrible. It's easy to handle in the hands of people, but if it falls in a remote corner and we can't pinpoint it, how can we find it? Do you hire people to search a large area?"

"Maybe we can offer a huge reward to encourage everyone to go hunting for treasures. If there are many people, there will always be someone who can find it."

"The question is, what are we going to pay with? Dollars? That stuff is paper now! Euros are about the same!"

"This problem is simple. At most, we can pay with gold. No matter what era, gold is a precious metal, and Nebula seems to be able to restructure materials to create gold out of thin air."

"Speaking of Nebula, maybe we can ask her to come over and read her mind to know whether the gemstone is in the hands of these people. It is definitely more effective than eavesdropping."

"Mind reading..." Everyone was silent for a while.

Because after knowing from Tony Stark that the magnetic field can read minds when the magnetic field rotates above the tenth heaven, everyone realized that Nebula can read minds long ago.But the problem is that Xing Yun did not tell them this information, but deliberately concealed it, which made everyone very uncomfortable.

After returning to the super battleship, everyone confronted Xingyun face to face and had a fierce quarrel.Although Nebula claimed that he did not read their minds, he was completely unable to gain the trust of his companions.Also because of these things, Nebula did not come down to the ground this time, but stayed on the battleship with the little raccoon and Professor Hulk.

Now that Xingyun's mind-reading ability can be used, everyone can't help but feel a little awkward.

"Things like mind reading are really too much, let's try the conventional method first!"

"Don't do to others what you don't want to do to yourself. We don't want to be read by others. How can we use it on others so openly?"

"Come on! We've even done things like surveillance and wiretapping, why do we care about reading minds? Everyone knows that this method is the most effective. Our bottom line has been pressed again and again, and now it's just Just make it a little lower."

……

The opinions of the people were different, and they quarreled again.

In the end, it was Steve who made the final decision:

"Let's focus on the overall situation!"

"I called Xingyun and asked her to come and help. Let the little conflict between us go with the wind!"

"We have to trust our companions!"

"Whether Xingyun read our minds in the past, I don't know, but I believe that Xingyun will not read our minds for our companions in the future!"

The crowd stopped talking angrily. There is no detection tool for this kind of thing, and there is no way to defend against it. What can they do?

Strength is not controlled by others, if others say they don't read minds, then they can only trust each other's moral character.

Xing Yun arrived soon, and didn't say any nonsense after arriving.Originally, she had a cold temperament, she seldom talked, and she was also wronged in concealing the matter of mind reading. Now she really wants to restore the relationship between the two parties, so her attitude is very correct.

"Who are the targets?"

Scott handed over a tablet computer, pointed at the dense dots of light on it and said: "Every light dot on this is a person we have located with a nano-eavesdropping device, and we need to read them one by one."

"Okay, leave it to me!"

Nebula took the tablet and flew out, and after a while, he came back to hand in the task again.

"It's too bad, none of them lied, and they really don't know the information about the Reality Gem."

"Damn it!" Steve slapped his thigh dejectedly, "Could it be that it's really in the wilderness? Then let's post the reward tomorrow. Nebula, get some gold."

"This is simple." Xing Yun snapped his fingers casually, and then dozens of gold bars appeared out of thin air, and fell onto the table with a crackling sound.

Everyone went back to their houses to rest with a heavy heart. On the second day, after breakfast, Steve went to the city hall in person, asked Mayor Hanas for help, and expressed his wishes.

When he saw dozens of gold bars in front of his eyes, Mayor Hanas's face turned into a flower with a smile.

After getting the official permission, everyone went to various newspapers and TV stations separately, and began to spread gold and advertise. So for several days in a row, the headlines in Sokovia were all about treasure hunts.

All of a sudden, almost everyone changed jobs to become treasure hunters, stopped working, and suspended their business.

However, days passed and there was still no clue about the Reality Stone.

On this day, when several people met again to discuss the possible situation, Natasha suddenly raised a possibility.

"Do you think there is a possibility that the gem of reality is broken!"

"Broken?" Everyone was taken aback when they heard this.

"That's right! Remember? On the detector, there are fluctuations showing the existence of gems everywhere. If the real gems are broken into powder and distributed in every corner of the city, then it is impossible to find it! The more Natasha said, the more she felt that her guess made sense.

Everyone thought about it carefully, and felt that this kind of thing was very possible.

The Infinity Stones are powerful, but not indestructible.

In their universe, in order to prevent Thanos from collecting all six Infinity Stones, Wanda once destroyed the Mind Stone on Vision's head, but was later reshaped by Thanos using the Time Stone to go back in time. The Mind Stone made Vision sacrifice in vain.

The Reality Gem was knocked into the air by Odin during the battle between Loki and Odin, so if Odin used too much force at that time and destroyed the Reality Gem, it is also possible.

It is also a very reasonable explanation for the destroyed powder to be scattered all over the city, making gemstones fluctuate everywhere and interfering with the detection of the detectors.

"Speaking of this, it suddenly occurred to me that the Wanda siblings seem to live near here. Perhaps, we can talk to them and see if they have seen the Reality Gem."

"In fact, after landing, I asked Friday to send nanites to find them." Clint explained: "But maybe because of the parallel world, the mind gem scepter in this world may have been in Loki's hands , did not fall into the hands of Hydra Baron Sterak, so the original human experiment did not happen. The Wanda siblings I saw were ordinary people with no superpowers. I didn’t find any reality in their house on Friday Gem-related clues."

"Are they just ordinary people?" Steve was stunned for a moment, then sighed: "Actually, this is pretty good, at least we don't have to face so many battles and dangers. Since they are just ordinary people, let's not disturb their peace." life. It might not be a good thing for them to get mixed up with us."

Everyone thought of the tragic experience of the Wanda brothers and sisters in another world, and they all felt sorry for them, and immediately gave up the idea of ​​looking for the Wanda brothers and sisters.

"It's better to ask the supreme mage to come and help restore the reality gem, otherwise we alone, I'm afraid there is no way. The reality gem is different from the soul gem, there is no magic circle or the like for us to perform the revealing operation."

"Okay, I'll call Professor Hulk right now."

The contact between the Avengers and the Supreme Sanctuary is basically through the telephone communication between Professor Hulk and Master Wang.

Although the two are not familiar with each other in this world, Professor Hulk and Master Wang have a close relationship in the contact of another world, and they know how to deal with him.Therefore, Steve had to go to the Supreme Mage for something, and he had to go through two people to make the transfer.

After hanging up the phone, within a few minutes, a portal with red sparks appeared in front of everyone.The smiling Gu Yi stepped over from the other side, holding the Eye of Agamotto in his hand, and greeted the Avengers with a smile:
"Your collection progress is very fast! It looks like you will be able to collect all five infinite gems soon, don't worry, I will give you the time gems then."

The Avengers were very happy when they heard the words, and hurriedly expressed their thanks.

It's a pity that Zhan Liu is not here, otherwise, seeing Gu Yi's smiling face, he would turn his head and run as far as he could, and would never believe Gu Yi's nonsense.

After listening to the request of the Avengers, Gu Yi was very happy. He immediately opened the Eye of Agamotto, revealed the Time Gem, and then sketched in the air, creating a lot of magic circle-like things , tossed and tossed for a long time, finally put the time stone back out of breath, frowned and said to the Avengers:

"There is something wrong with your judgment!"

"Although I don't know the exact location of the Reality Gem because of the interaction between the Infinity Gemstones, I'm sure that the Reality Gemstone must not be broken and exists somewhere in this city."

After everyone listened, there was an uproar.

"Is the gem not broken?"

"That's why we judged wrong!"

"The gem should be hidden in a certain location, we seem to have to intensify the search!"

"Supreme Master, can't you go through the long river of time to see where the gem of reality is hidden in the future?"

"Master Strange can observe the future, can't you?"

The Ancient One sighed and shook his head, "Strange is the most outstanding of all the supreme mages. I am already old, and my energy and physical strength are no longer at their peak."

Everyone remembered that in their world, this ancient mage was once killed by his apprentice, and they all believed Gu Yi's words.

A weak chicken, what else can you expect from her?
As for the thing that Professor Hulk once said that the ancient one mage was ridiculously strong, thinking about it now, it is probably because of his occupation.Professor Hulk's own magic resistance is too low to deal with the mage's soul attack method.This weakness had already been revealed when facing Ebony Maw.

Since the Reality Gem didn't shatter, the Ancient One Mage would be useless here. After everyone expressed their gratitude to the Ancient One, they watched him open the portal and leave.

Since the reality gem is not broken, we can only continue to search in a stupid way.Even if you scrape the ground three feet, you must find the Infinity Stone.

The continuous days of treasure hunts have searched every corner of the entire city, but no one has found the Reality Gem to claim the reward.Slowly, the citizens slacked off and resumed normal work and life.After all, treasure hunting has to be found.Everyone has to support their families, and it is impossible to sit around all day and wander around for an ethereal gem.

Everyone's enthusiasm for treasure hunting before is actually more like a feast for the whole people, starting a carnival.

In fact, most people know in their hearts that they can't find gems, but everyone is looking for them, so everyone is lively and lively together.Participation is the most important thing, and I don't really care if I get gems or not.

After the heat passed, everyone started to run around for daily necessities again, and no longer cared about gems or not.

The people who are still hunting for treasure all day long are basically only idlers who have no serious work, or those who are unwilling to continue to be poor, want to gamble on this matter once, and want to change their own destiny.

The number of people is too small to effectively cover the entire urban area.After discussing with everyone, it was decided to give fixed salaries to those who participated in the treasure hunt and encourage more people to participate.Anyway, they have as much gold as they want, and they don't care how much they give.

Relying on this way of distributing money, more citizens finally joined the army of looking for gems again.

While unleashing the power of the swarm, the Avengers are not idle.While asking Professor Hulk to collect the fluctuations of real gems and develop a more accurate gem radar, they used advanced technology to conduct a sieve-like search of the city's underground pipe network and other places that are difficult for ordinary people to go to.

But unfortunately, after many days in a row, there is still no trace of the Reality Gem.
