Traversing Time and Space
In response to Thanos’s question, the Goddess of Death shook her head and said, "You know I can’t act freely."
"If I can’t go to Future Time-Space, there’s nothing I can do."
Thanos frowned. "The Blood God is too powerful. Even if I release Knull, he won’t be a match for him."
"Although I can’t act directly, I can give you a little help. For example, I can revive those who have already died."
The Goddess of Death smiled faintly and flicked her hand. Two figures appeared out of thin air beside Thanos. Then, she said, "They will help you reach Future Time-Space."
Thanos glanced at the two bewildered figures and asked his final question, "Will I die in other universes?"
"What do you think?"
The Goddess of Death chuckled and vanished.
"That’s good."
Thanos smiled in satisfaction and tried to sit down, only to discover that he had smashed the chair himself. He coughed awkwardly and asked the two figures, "Who are you?"
Loki and the others also watched the two figures curiously. How had they appeared? One was male and one female, both very elderly. They had recovered from their confusion and were excitedly clutching each other’s hands.
The old man was about to say something to the old woman when Thanos interrupted him. He turned toward the towering Thanos and asked in a deep voice, "Who are you?"
Thanos narrowed his eyes. "You speak English. Are you people from Earth?"
Thanos was not speaking English, but he was a god-level powerhouse. His words carried spiritual power, so as long as he wanted others to understand, they would.
The old man became even more astonished. "You know Earth? Who exactly are you?"
"Great Thanos, this is Earth scientist Dr. Pym."
Loki said, "If I remember correctly, the Pym Particles used by the future people to travel to this time-space were invented by him."
"Dr. Pym?"
Thanos was overjoyed. No wonder Death had sent these two to him. One of them was the inventor of Pym Particles.
"You’re Loki, Thor’s brother? Huh, why are you a woman?"
Dr. Pym asked in astonishment. Movie Loki and the real Loki looked ninety percent alike, so Dr. Pym recognized him.
"I am male, and I am female. It is all determined by my will."
Loki used an illusion to influence Dr. Pym and asked, "Dr. Pym, why are you here?"
"This…"
Dr. Pym looked lost. "I don’t know either. I remember that I had just entered the Quantum Realm when a storm appeared. Though I tried my best to escape, I was still caught by it and lost consciousness. When I woke up, I was already standing here."
"If I’m not mistaken, we should be dead."
The old woman beside Dr. Pym, Janet, the first-generation Wasp, said, "I sensed your presence and went looking for you. As a result, we were both swept into the quantum storm."
"We’re dead? Then why are we here? Did God revive us?"
Dr. Pym grew even more confused. He did not know that the one who had revived them was not God, but Death.
Loki’s heart stirred. Revival? Is that why the Blood God didn’t kill Thanos in this universe?
Thanos said domineeringly, "Dr. Pym, I want Pym Particles. Make them for me, as many as possible."
"Why should I?"
Dr. Pym snorted coldly. He hated it most when others set their sights on his Pym Particles.
"Dr. Pym, this is the great Thanos."
Loki introduced him. "You must show respect in his presence."
"Thanos? The Mad Titan?"
Dr. Pym froze, then cried out, "You’re that lunatic who wants to slaughter half of Earth’s life?"
"To be precise, half of all life in the universe."
Thanos grabbed Janet by the neck and lifted her up. He said coldly, "I gave you your lives, and I can take them back at any time. Dr. Pym, give me Pym Particles, or she dies."
"Janet!"
Seeing Janet’s pained expression, Dr. Pym was horrified. He hurriedly shouted, "Fine, I agree! Let her go, let her go now!"
"Very good."
Thanos nodded in satisfaction, released Janet, and threw her aside. Then he turned to Corvus Glaive and ordered, "Watch them. I want Pym Particles in the shortest possible time."
The lean-looking Corvus Glaive nodded. "Yes, Master."
"Great Thanos, Pym Particles alone aren’t enough to reach Future Time-Space."
Loki said, "I heard Future Thor mention some kind of positioning device. Unfortunately, Thor arrived suddenly, so I wasn’t able to seize it."
"Pym Particles are enough. When the time comes, we’ll follow them to Future Time-Space."
Thanos smiled. Fat Thor carried his death aura, making him a living coordinate.
After a pause, Thanos continued, "Besides, we have the Reality Stone. Loki, I will prepare a large number of sacrifices for you. This is the reward you deserve."
Loki said happily, "Thank you, great Thanos."
A few days later.
"Dr. Pym and Wasp are dead?"
After receiving the intelligence Loki had sent back, Wang Bert was somewhat surprised. By normal logic, shouldn’t the two have ended up stranded in another world before he rescued them? How had they just died? Looks like neither of them has protagonist luck.
Wang Bert shook his head and thought to himself, Then what about Future Ant-Man? Is he dead, or was he swept into another world?
Forget it. The trap has been set. Next, it’s time to search for the Infinity Stones.
Thinking of the Infinity Stones, Wang Bert frowned slightly. Over the past few days, he had thoroughly investigated the parallel world where Blonde Spider-Man came from and discovered that it was not only very powerful, but also had mutants.
I’ll take a look first. If it doesn’t work out, I’ll switch worlds. There are plenty of parallel worlds to choose from anyway.
After considering it, Wang Bert teleported to the Super Collider and found a group of Spider-Men swinging through the air and fighting each other.
Wang Bert was somewhat puzzled. "What’s going on? Why are the Spider-Men fighting?"
"They’re just too bored. Fortunately, the Super Collider has officially been completed."
Future Tony said impatiently, "Blood God, the Super Collider can be activated at any time."
Hearing Future Tony’s words, the Spider-Men immediately stopped fighting and looked at him in delight.
"Very good."
Wang Bert nodded in satisfaction and had Dr. Octopus raise the Super Collider to the surface. Then he called upward, "Dr. Richards."
The next moment, a beam of seven-colored light descended from the sky and enveloped the entire Super Collider. Immediately afterward, the Super Collider was teleported into a massive Space Station.
This Space Station had been jointly constructed by Osborn Corporation and Stark Industries. At first, it was meant to serve as Earth’s shield, but later it became the main body of a knockoff Bifrost.
After the Battle of New York, Wang Bert chose to expand the Space Station. The current Space Station was about the size of a small town, more than large enough to accommodate a Super Collider.
Future Tony used the instruments to determine their location and asked in astonishment, "A Space Station? Blood God, what do you mean by this?"
"The Super Collider is too dangerous. We can’t conduct experiments with it on Earth, so I had Dr. Richards move it to the Space Station."
Wang Bert said, "Once everyone arrives, we can officially activate it."
Future Tony thought for a moment and nodded. "That makes sense. Safety first. Still, I need to inspect the collider again, since it was moved."
Dr. Octopus also said, "I agree."
Wang Bert smiled. "Do as you say. We’ll activate it tomorrow."
The next day, everyone gathered on the Space Station. Thor, who had come with Fat Thor, looked at the collider and asked in surprise, "This thing looks pretty ordinary. Can it really travel through parallel worlds?"
"Of course it can. All these Spider-Men are proof."
Wang Bert looked at the bright-eyed Spider-Men and smiled. "You’ll be going home soon. No need to get so excited."
The Spider-Men were a little embarrassed. Spider-Gwen said, "Thank you for taking care of us during this time. If you ever come to my world in the future, I’ll definitely treat you well."
"Don’t worry, we won’t casually interfere with other people’s worlds."
Wang Bert understood what Spider-Gwen meant and smiled. "If we really do go to your world to search for Infinity Stones, we’ll definitely inform you."
"That’s good."
Spider-Gwen heaved a huge sigh of relief. She was afraid that outsiders would throw her world into chaos.
Miles asked impatiently, "Can we start? I really want to go home now."
"Then let’s begin."
Wang Bert nodded to Dr. Octopus. Without wasting words, Dr. Octopus led a group of researchers in activating the Super Collider.
It was still the old method: two five-colored beams slammed into each other. Compared to before, the Super Collider was now extremely stable, with no distortion.
This was not only thanks to Dr. Octopus, but also Tony, Future Tony, and the two Banners.
Then, under Tony’s control, a Drone Armor flew into the five-colored light. Wang Bert closed his eyes and sensed it for a moment before saying, "The Drone Armor is fine. It successfully reached a new world."
"That’s great!"
The Spider-Men and the future Super Heroes cheered at the same time. Wang Bert smiled. "Spider-Men, go home."
"Thank you, Blood God."
The Spider-Men thanked Wang Bert one after another. Then, under Tony’s direction, they jumped into the five-colored light one by one. The Super Collider would lock onto their worlds according to the quantum fluctuations on their bodies.
Before leaving, Spider-Gwen glanced at Peter awkwardly and said, "Sorry."
After saying that, Spider-Gwen jumped into the five-colored light. Peter froze, then understood and immediately gave a bitter smile. Clearly, Spider-Gwen had given her blood to Gwen.
Peter thought with a headache, This is going to cause trouble later.
Before long, all the Spider-Men except Blonde Spider-Man and Peter had been sent away. The Super Collider was functioning perfectly.
As expected, I can’t sense across universes.
Wang Bert secretly shook his head. Still, it was not a major problem. After all, he had the Super Collider.
"Our turn."
Blonde Spider-Man turned to Future Tony and said, "Mr. Stark, your promise still stands, right?"
"Don’t worry. I said we wouldn’t affect your world. We’ll first find the Iron Man of your world, then use him to search for Infinity Stones."
Future Tony said excitedly, "If your world has no Infinity Stones, or if they’re too difficult to obtain, we’ll switch worlds."
"That’s good."
Blonde Spider-Man breathed a sigh of relief, then continued, "How many of you are going?"
Future Tony said, "I’m definitely going. Captain and Thor are going too. As for Banner… uh, Dr. Banner from this world will go. Future Banner, you’re too big. We’ll talk about it next time."
Future Banner said good-naturedly, "No problem."
"I’m going too."
Tony and Thor said in unison. Future Tony looked at Tony and complained, "Three Iron Men. Don’t you think that’s too many?"
Tony spoke with perfect confidence. "How could I give up such an important scientific opportunity? Besides, I can be very helpful."
"That’s true. Then come with us."
Future Tony thought for a moment and nodded. Then he turned to Thor, about to say something, when seven-colored light suddenly burst from Thor’s body, wrapped around him, and made him disappear.
On the Bifrost, Heimdall said helplessly, "Thor, you’re the king. It’s fine to skip work and go out for fun, but you want to venture into a parallel world? Do you want Asgard to be destroyed?"
Thor was initially a little angry, but soon became ashamed. He said, "I understand, Heimdall. Don’t worry. I will protect Asgard and not let it be destroyed."
Heimdall was somewhat surprised and somewhat gratified. He just did not know how many days Thor could maintain this state. As everyone knew, huskies were not creatures known for patience.
On the Space Station, Fat Thor was delighted to see Thor disappear. Over the past few days, that guy had kept forcing him to marry Loki.
"Looks like our Point Break male lead has gone back home."
Tony shrugged and turned to Wang Bert. "Bert, are you going?"
Future Tony and the others all looked at Wang Bert with hopeful eyes. With Wang Bert there, things would definitely go much more smoothly.
"I’m a guardian, so I can’t leave Earth. However, my clone will go with you."
Wang Bert opened a space door with one hand. The Dragon Soul Clone walked through with Wanda and smiled. "Leave it to me. But I won’t be taking the same route as you. You’ll search for Infinity Stones on Earth, while I’ll search in space."
"Splitting into two groups is a good idea."
Future Tony nodded. With the Blood God watching over them, everything would be easy.
Knowing about the parallel world, Wanda said excitedly, "I want to go too."
The Dragon Soul Clone soothed her. "Next time. I’ll scout it out first."
"Fine."
Wanda was somewhat disappointed. Then she thought of something and warned viciously, "Don’t mess around with other women, or I won’t let you off."
The Dragon Soul Clone smiled. "Don’t worry. I’m not that scumbag over there."
"Go in peace. I’ll help take care of your girlfriend."
Wang Bert rolled his eyes and called to Dr. Octopus, "Liv, prepare to begin. Everyone, have a safe journey."
"Let’s hope so."
Everyone nodded, their hearts filled with excitement and anticipation. They hoped that world had Infinity Stones.
The universe where Blonde Spider-Man came from.
That morning, several visitors came to the office of Iron Man Tony Stark: Spider-Man Peter Parker, Iron Man, Iron Man, Captain America, Dr. Banner, and a fat version of Thor.
Tony whispered to Future Tony, "This guy doesn’t look like us. He’s really unlucky."
"That’s right. He’s much uglier than us."
Future Tony nodded. "I’d bet all those girls are only after his money. Unlike us, we never spend money."
