But one day I will get it back!
Everyone looked at him in surprise. What was going on?
The two staffs are exactly the same, one of them is fake?
How did you discover it?
This has to do with Natasha's professional habits. When she got the staff, she subconsciously left a mark on it. The data that Lai Mu copied from the fake staff came from before he gave the staff to Natasha, so no matter how real it was, Natasha could still see it at a glance.
That's what she whispered into Nick Fury's ear.
"Okay, if you have nothing else to do, then let's go. Let's go."
Slime shook his head, yawned, and left listlessly without any intention of explaining.
...Black Widow, oh Black Widow, you have betrayed my trust in you!
Today, three Infinity Stones passed right before my eyes, but I couldn't get any of them.
Slime is a little unhappy.
The Cosmic Cube is gone.
Thor wanted to take it away, but he needed it to go home and repair things. As a comrade, there was no reason to fight with him for it. Fortunately, the Rubik's Cube would stay in Asgard. He could ask Thor for it when he had the chance. It was not urgent.
With Thor's generous character, he would not care about such a "treasure". There are many similar things in Odin's treasury.
The spiritual gem is gone.
It was also my fault for being too confident. I thought I had done a perfect job of replacing one thing with another, but I was eventually found out due to my carelessness.
The Time Stone...is on Ancient One.
You can just take a look, it's impossible to touch it, Gu Yi won't agree.
Come to think of it, Ancient One said that she would give herself a gift when she went to Kamar-Taj... It would be great if she could give herself the Time Stone...
But, how is this possible?
This is impossible.
If something like this happens, let me, the slime, jump off this Stark Tower, let me, the slime, never be able to find my gender again, let me, the slime, be as tall as it is now in thousands of years!
…Now that the contract is concluded, whoever cheats will eat dirt (crossed out). Whoever breaks his word will be punished by eating rock!
Chapter 15. Fleet Burial
"He must hate you to death. He's a very petty person."
Downstairs in Stark Tower, Coulson and Hill had gone to arrange post-war matters, while Nick Fury and Natasha walked together.
Natasha was a little distressed. "...I have to find a chance to apologize to him. I don't want him to hate me...It's all your fault, my big boss!"
Originally, Natasha didn't care who had the staff. Lemu played a great role in this battle, so it didn't matter if she gave it to him directly. But as an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., she had the obligation to expose the fact that Lemu had stolen the staff.
Legally speaking, all dangerous alien objects should be kept by S.H.I.E.L.D., and Nick Fury would not be willing to give away a staff that is of great research value.
Faced with a conflict between public and private interests, Natasha chose the option that would offend others.
Fury sneered, "Do you care so much about that blue-haired guy's attitude?"
"He's very cute, okay? Just looking at him from a distance makes me feel relaxed and happy, and I can't help but want to get close to him, don't you think? He also gave me a gift, a pair of very useful pistols."
"It's a shame you betrayed his trust, Madam Agent. Besides, I find him hideous."
As he spoke, Fury looked at the vast ruins from near to far. In this war, the houses and buildings in New York suffered great damage and needed to be repaired in a planned manner.
The weapons, aircrafts, and even Leviathans left behind by aliens also need to be well controlled. These are extremely dangerous and unknown things. If they fall into the hands of civilians or even criminals, they are more harmful than firearms.

"The Avengers?"
In the dim starry sky, countless meteorites are floating, and among the meteorites is a huge throne.
A purple giant was sitting on the throne, looking down in thought.
He was dressed in golden armor, like a god high above.
"That's right... According to the information we got, the Avengers is the most powerful organization on Earth. They are led by a man named Lemu Etxeberria, and they have proposed a plan to counterattack us..."
A trembling ant-like man was lying on the ground. He was wearing armor and a hood, with his head lowered. His voice was filled with uncontrollable fear, and his tone was as trembling as his body.
One is the fear of the person in front of you, and the other is the fear of another person far away on the earth.
"They... used a type of glowing robot that we couldn't understand, which led to the annihilation of the fleet..."
"He, he is the buryer of the fleet... the most ruthless butcher!"
When the word "buried" was mentioned, the kneeling ant seemed to be caught by an invisible hand and suffocated for a moment.
Thanos slowly raised his head, with a hint of amusement in his bright purple eyes, "The Undertaker? Interesting..."
……
“He has my approval.”

"Aliens attacked New York, destroying countless buildings and properties. But fortunately, an organization called the 'Avengers' emerged. They not only repelled but also completely defeated the alien army, making the Earth, which has not yet set foot in the stars, the winner in an interstellar war."
"Our extraordinary heroes protect everyone in New York, and their presence brings not only wonder and excitement to people, but more importantly, a sense of security."
"Let us pay tribute to the heroes here and thank them for their fight and efforts! Thank you Iron Man Tony Stark, thank you Captain America Steve Rogers, thank you Thor, thank you Black Widow Natasha, thank you Hawkeye Clint Barton, thank you Hulk Bruce Banner, and thank you Sky Knight and his Tiga warriors whose names are not yet known!"
……
"Knowing they are on Earth, I feel safe no matter how far away they are! They can even defeat aliens, so what is there to be afraid of..."
"Iron Man! Iron Man! Iron Man! Iron Man is the most handsome!"
"It's the Hulk! It's the Hulk!"
……
In general, people support, identify with and praise the Avengers and their actions. But the world is not always full of praise, and sometimes there are conflicting opinions and people with ulterior motives trying to fish in troubled waters.
"These so-called heroes should be held accountable for the destruction they caused! This was their battle! But where are they now? Where did they go?"
"Their existence itself is a threat to humanity. Who can guarantee that they won't get out of control? Who can guarantee that they won't intervene in a war between different countries on Earth?"
"I don't care what they did! I just know my house is destroyed! My dog is dead! How much money are they going to pay me!"
……
After the battle in New York, the Avengers returned to their own lives one by one.
Needless to say, Natasha and Hawkeye have a lot of tasks waiting for them to handle in SHIELD.
Thor took Loki back to Asgard.
Steve took his shield and drove the motorcycle he extorted from SHIELD to go somewhere for fun.
Stark plans to restore Stark Tower and rename it Avengers Tower.
Dr. Banner stayed in the Avengers Mansion and planned to find a job in Stark Industries to live on in his old age at the suggestion of Lemu. Stark of course agreed with both hands, as it was hard to find a research genius of Banner's level in the whole world.
Although most people have dispersed, I believe that they can all be called together with just one phone call when necessary.
Well, except for Thor... this guy doesn't have a phone, and even if he did, he wouldn't know how to use it.

When Lai Mu was standing on the top floor of the Avengers Building looking at the scenery, Banner came over.
Behind him, busy workers were repairing the damaged top floor, and the pit on the ground was deliberately preserved. This pit not only commemorated Loki's first time, but also commemorated the first barbecue dinner of the Avengers.
Outside the window, workers were installing a huge sign "Avengers Tower" via helicopter.
Further away, there are densely packed maintenance teams repairing various buildings.
The whole world has a kind of dilapidated beauty of a post-war wasteland, but also a kind of vibrant beauty that is constantly being improved and repaired.
Banner stood behind Lai Mu holding an egg-sized purple crystal.
"It's a big problem, Laimu."
He handed the crystal to Lai Mu solemnly. The crystal looked like some strange fruit and was fixed with rivets.
"These biological crystals left behind by the Chitauri contain a lot of energy. They are used to power guns and aircraft..."
Slime played with the crystal, it was sparkling in the sunlight, "Any questions?"
"The problem is that once it leaves the protective environment of the device and comes into contact with radiation, it will become explosive. A crystal this large in your hand is enough to destroy a main battle tank."
……
So, is sunlight radiation?
Chapter 16. Old Vulture, how about being my subordinate?
Someone always needs to clean up the ruins after the war.
The bodies and equipment of the Zetauri soldiers, the wreckage of aircraft, the plate armor of the Leviathan, and various broken and unstable weapons and explosives.
This stuff is difficult and dangerous to clean up, so the city is willing to pay a lot of money for it.
Some people dislike these jobs, while others are ecstatic.
Not everyone's life is happy and wealthy enough. Some people have to do things that others are unwilling to do for the sake of their family and life.
In the urban ruins of New York, Adrian Toomes was patrolling, giving guidance to his brothers who were working or a word or two of praise and consolation. Although his words were not many, they were enough to bring a little bit of encouragement to people in the busy and stressful work.
"...Look here, it's easy to hurt yourself if you do this, you can use this thing... Yes, that's it, good job."
He wears glasses and a baseball cap. Although he doesn't have much hair in his middle age, his gentle appearance makes people believe that he is a polite and gentle person. Who would have thought that he would become the famous villain Vulture eight years later?
