The Hydra agent infiltrating the story, researching the Cosmic Cube, is... their old profession.
Now, when the Chitauri army will arrive depends on S.H.I.E.L.D....
The speed of research and development progress varies.
However, Luo Xing has no way of knowing how fast or slow this is.
Even if you asked, Nick Fury certainly wouldn't tell you that his men did the same.
The research into the Cosmic Cube and the creation of new weapons are, in addition to... being for defense against other civilizations in the universe, also for defense against the planet Luo.
After all, from the intelligence Coulson brought back, Nick Fury would surely discover that Lothar was essentially comparable to the entire Asgard.
As the saying goes, when you do good, you are a reliable partner, but when you fall, who can stop you?
Nick Fury's trust in Los Angeles initially reached 50%, but it stopped there. This was his bottom line as the King of Agents—to doubt everyone.
As for why Nick Fury only guards against other alien civilizations and Locust, instead of trying to guard against Captain America and Iron Man...
It wasn't because Steve and Tony were particularly noble or great, but rather because their strength hadn't yet reached a level where Nick Fury needed to be wary.
Extraterrestrial civilization, Luo Xing.
One is the fear of the unknown, the other is the fear of the known.
Therefore, Luo Xing chooses to accept this uncertain outcome... In the end, S.H.I.E.L.D. will inevitably be the first to suffer a setback...
However, Luo Xing could immediately [take advantage of the situation] if he left himself a little something in reserve.
I realized it.
After all, Loki couldn't open the portal by himself alone.
There is plenty of time.
So……
Chapter 117 The Future in Illusion
Natasha didn't want to relive her blood-stained past, nor did she want the innocent Wanda beside her to witness this other side of her.
Why are you so agitated? Do you have some little secret?
Luo Xing hadn't expected Natasha to react this way simply by taking it out, and he chuckled and teased her.
"I have many secrets, secrets that I myself don't want to know."

"I have many secrets, secrets that I myself don't want to know."
Natasha pursed her lips and said.
"Alright, I don't have any weird quirks about prying into other people's privacy."
Luo Xing waved his hand and said, "The Lasso of Truth has the coordinates of that world on it. With it, I can find that universe among countless dimensions."
Aren't you going to make any preparations?
Natasha glanced behind Luo Xing: "Just go there empty-handed."
"To be honest, all I know is that's where I need to go."
But what era Earth in that universe belongs to, I have no way of knowing until I arrive.”
"Perhaps it's the 21st century over there, but it could also still be a primitive society."
Luo Xing shrugged slightly and said, "So, my only preparation is... to bring some food and drinks, that's all."
After he finished speaking, a suitcase appeared behind Luo Xing, containing various breads, sandwiches, and snacks that he had previously stored in his storage space for convenience.
Because time flows very slowly in storage spaces, as long as you don't put pre-prepared dishes in them, you generally don't need to worry about shelf life.
"You really went on vacation..."
Natasha opened Luo Xing's suitcase and was speechless when she saw things like jelly chocolate, potato chips, and egg yolk pies.
She had initially thought Luo Xing had said she was going on a "trip".
She just meant to say she was safe, but judging from her appearance, she really is off on a spring outing to another world. "By the way, I've always wanted to ask a question."
Natasha suddenly remembered something and looked up at Luo Xing.
"ask."
"You've been sealed away for so many years, you probably haven't eaten anything since."
Natasha asked cautiously.
"I had one meal: fried chicken and mini hamburgers."
Upon hearing Natasha mention this, Luo Xing immediately recalled the time when the mentally challenged Jeffries conjured up a secret recipe mini hamburger for him, made with stinky tofu and fermented bean curd.
"Just one meal: So, you don't actually need to eat anything."
Natasha nodded slightly, and then spoke.
"That's right."
Luo Xing nodded; he understood Natasha's question and explained directly, "You need to understand, not needing to eat doesn't mean you don't like it."
"I am a human being, not a god. I am bound to have all kinds of human emotions and desires, and the desire for food is one of them."
"Some religions like to transform the seven emotions and six desires into the seven deadly sins, but these seven deadly sins are manifestations of human nature. The difference lies in... whether or not one can control these seven emotions."
"Moreover, gods are not without desires; in fact, they are even more greedy. It's just that what they need is beyond the comprehension of ordinary people, so they naturally assume that they are great."
Just as when the Olympus dimension was entered, only the lineage of the Sorcerer Supreme and the planet Loth knew that the gods' true intention was to annihilate Earth's future.
But those mortals believed that the gods were without desires and that their blessings and favors were selfless.
They even once regarded the previous Supreme Mage and Luo Xing as demons from hell.
"That's true."
Nata nodded thoughtfully: "That... Thor's personality isn't much different from ordinary people, it's just like..."
Chapter 118 No, I've never slept with you.
Hearing the whooshing sound behind him, Luo Xing turned around, then swatted away the spear aimed at him, ignoring the "primitive man."
They walked out of the cave.
"So it's nighttime, no wonder it's so dark."
Luo Xing withdrew from the mental realm space, looked at the stars in the sky, and muttered to himself.
"Intruder! Stop him!"
The guard, whose weapon had been knocked away by Luo Xing and ignored, rushed out and shouted at the top of his lungs.
The surrounding guards heard the sound and looked over, seeing someone standing at the edge of the platform...

The guards around him looked over when they heard the noise and saw Luo Xing standing on the edge of the platform. They all raised their spears and bows.
"The router is over there."
Using the divine power within his body, Luo Xing took a step and leaped up, jumping ten zhang away.
The guards only had time to fire a few arrows into the air.
"Oh no! The intruders' target is the Queen!"
Upon seeing Luo Xing's direction, the lead guard's expression suddenly changed. He took out a horn from his waist and blew it out.
The sound of bugles echoed throughout the forest and grassland, and countless people who were resting, patrolling, or eating stopped what they were doing and took up their weapons.
As Luo Xing ran and jumped, his speed increased until he became completely invisible to the naked eye, leaving only a gust of wind.
The sound of rallying horns alerted Hippolyta, the Amazon queen, to something amiss, and she immediately...
I stepped out of the dormitory and stood atop the mountain, gazing into the distance.
Behind her, her daughter, who had just come of age, also gripped her weapon and followed closely.
"That is..."
Hippolyta vaguely saw a figure, seemingly approaching them rapidly.
But after she spotted the figure, it vanished in the blink of an eye.
Thump!! The ground shook violently, sending shards of stone flying. Hippolyta, who had been searching for Luo Xing just a moment ago, lost her balance and fell to the ground.
"Intruder!"
Seeing her mother fall to the ground, with the intruder right in front of her, the Amazon princess behind her drew her longsword and charged towards Luo Xing.
"No! Watch out, Diana!"
Hippolyta saw her daughter rushing towards that...unknown enemy and cried out in worry.
The power Luo Xing displayed terrified her, and even reminded her of a nightmare.
"drink!"
The Amazon princess swung her longsword and slashed forcefully at the sound emerging from the dust.
Clang! A crisp metallic clang rang out, and her sword broke.
The Amazon princess felt a sudden lightness in her hand, and her body swayed forward due to inertia.
