"Is the news reliable?" Captain Rogers looked at Li Jie with a stern face and asked as he walked. He had just returned from the construction site of Earth's starport, Sky City.
Sky City had been under full construction since the rescue operation of Dr. Reed and the others. Because all the countries on Earth had launched so many rockets in one go, if Sky City still didn't start, then the loss would be too great.
The Thousand Star Flashing Project last time not only saved Dr. Reed and the others, but more importantly, it connected all the countries in the world and really completed one thing together.
The Helium-3 ore brought back by Dr. Reed and the others had been distributed, and the new energy plan had officially begun. The large Arc Reactor in the United States had begun to generate electricity, and the initial project of China's Suiren I controllable nuclear fusion nuclear power plant had also officially started.
Now, the price of oil in the global resource market had really returned to a fairly stable price, but the International Petroleum Organization couldn't pull up oil prices no matter what they did.
And companies and stocks related to new energy took off. Including Volkswagen, Ford, Honda, Mercedes, and other major car manufacturers in the world launched their own new energy vehicles at the beginning of this year.
Tesla's dominance was gone, as Stark Corporation provided a new energy module that could be used in cars. This made Tesla, an electric car with batteries all over its body, very useless.
With the energy modules provided by Stark Corporation, the range of new energy vehicles was off the charts. It could easily reach a driving distance of a thousand kilometers. If it was equipped with two energy modules like an electric car with two batteries, then a range of two thousand kilometers would be enough for most people to travel long distances.
And Stark Corporation cooperated with major car dealers in the world, instantly spreading the replacement business of energy modules to the 4S stores of major car dealers around the world. Tesla, which originally prided itself on technology and new energy, instantly lost all its advantages. Now their boss should be scratching his head thinking about how to prevent the company from going bankrupt.
And the industries related to the starport, Sky City, were taking off. Everyone in the world was looking forward to the day when humans really built an extraterrestrial starport.
Because this represented a big step forward for humans into space. The earth was really too narrow, so narrow that it could no longer accommodate the explosive growth of the population.
Conflicts and struggles broke out because of key survival factors such as land, energy, and food. If humans didn't want to be destroyed by internal strife, then they had to advance into outer space. From a certain perspective, human civilization had always been an outward-expanding civilization. We are too good at making babies.
Therefore, ever since the Starport Sky City was built, Captain Rogers had shifted his focus to the Sky City. Today was the same. Originally, he was going to take the Ark to Sky City to inspect the progress of the entire project, but Li Jie's sudden message disrupted his work plan today.
But if it was disrupted, then so be it. Because Li Jie brought an even worse news: a race called the Dark Elves were secretly eyeing the Earth! They wanted the Space Gem!
Captain Rogers strode around the Venusian base and complained to Li Jie beside him, "Why did this have to happen now?"
Li Jie's expression wasn't much better than Captain Rogers's. "It's probably Murphy's Law. As long as there was a possibility that things would develop in the worst direction, then they would definitely develop in the worst direction. There is also a saying that blessings never come in pairs, and misfortunes never come alone. "
Captain Rogers stopped and paused. "Yes, misfortunes never come alone."
They had arrived at the door of the Illuminati's conference room. In the conference room, the big shots of the Illuminati gathered. Because they had all received the bad news about the possible invasion of the Dark Elves.
At the round conference table, the big shots had serious expressions. And Thor was the most serious person. This time, he made an exception and didn't eat and drink or drool while sleeping at the meeting. Instead, he held a serious meeting. Because the news was brought by his sister, and the Dark Elves had a close relationship with Asgard.
So at the meeting, Professor Xavier asked Thor directly, "How much do you know about the Dark Elves?"
"Not much, but not little either." Thor's expression was serious. "I've dealt with them a lot. They're a bunch of lunatics. Before I was born, Odin led the army in the Elven Kingdom to repel the Dark Elves' invasions several times. We've fought on many planets. "
"No matter the outcome of the war, the final result is that these planets become scorched earth, no longer inhabited and lifeless. The Dark Elves are a bunch of lunatics, real lunatics, a group of fanatics. " Thor's introduction was very simple, but everyone had already sketched out a general outline in their hearts.
Fierce, crazy, unscrupulous, and unscrupulous in order to achieve their goals. This was the impression that the Dark Elves gave everyone.
"If the news is true, regardless of whether the Dark Elves win or lose the war here, I'm afraid that Earth will be uninhabitable. We can drive them away and defeat them. Asgard can help Earth, or even directly participate in the war. Plus, Ancient One. It's not difficult for us to defend Earth, but we can't guarantee that Earth won't be damaged. "Thor said dryly.
"The Dark Elves have a lot of tools that can completely change the form of matter. They always turn other planets into the Dark Ages. This kind of environment is livable for the Dark Elves, but for humans, it's a dead end. "
"It's not difficult to win against them. I can go back to Asgard immediately to recruit troops. But even if we win in a military operation, we can't guarantee that the result will be good. "Thor said the worst case scenario.
"Maybe many places on Earth will become barren because of those tools of the Dark Elves."
"F * ck." Tony burst out with a dirty word. Dr. Banner and Dr. Hank looked at each other, both of their faces were not very good. Earth's civilization has not yet stepped out of Earth and become a cosmic civilization. If there were large pieces of land on Earth that were not suitable for human habitation, then it would not be good news for everyone.
"We may need to prepare more troops for war." Tony said his thoughts. "If the Dark Elves are really coming."
