Crisis and opportunities are like twin twins, always appearing together and disappearing together.

Although Red Skull knew very well that if he failed this time, then waiting for the end of the entire Hydra organization would disappear forever, and there would be no possibility of resurrection again.

After all, in the universe, there are only a very small number of people on earth.

The rule of most people is absolutely an extremely dangerous move without mastering absolute force.

But John Schmidt could not resist the temptation to rule a huge cosmic empire.

To be precise, for someone like him, power is as important as breathing.

If he had no power, he would rather die by himself.

Similarly, when I first came into contact with a huge interstellar empire involving countless planets and galaxies, the various social structures and methods of rule on the earth obviously do not have any reference value.

The reason is very simple!

A policy that could have allowed countries with small populations to live and work in peace and contentment does not mean that it can perfectly adapt to a big country with tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of people.

When the population and land expand countless times, the difficulty of governance will increase by a factor of a factor of growth.

This is why, the social contradictions of big countries always seem more and more sharp than those of small countries.

But now, Hydra is facing a cosmic empire with countless races and a territory of several huge galaxies. Moreover, the internal problems of this empire have been suppressed for a long time, just like a sealed volcano.

When Sakura is here, there will naturally be no big problems.

But if one day, those aliens knew that their invincible queen would not come back, then all the dissatisfaction, greed and desire that were suppressed by powerful force would spring up like mushrooms after a rain.

In addition, there are different languages, different beliefs, different customs, and different values...

The more you understand this interstellar empire that has been forcibly pinched together, the more you will feel a sense of crisis and urgency.

He understood that there was not much time left for himself.

"Bullock!" John Schmidt, who was staring at the star map, suddenly shouted without looking back. "How long will it take for you and your people to completely control a main fleet?"

"The manipulation of those alien warships is too complicated, and it will take at least two months." Crossbones gave the answer without thinking.

"But I can't wait for two months! You should know the situation of the entire Hydra organization. We must establish our supreme dominance before the aliens react. Otherwise, once a rebellion occurs, it will become bigger and bigger like a snowball." The Red Skull calmly told his current situation.

It took two months to master a main fleet?

How long will it take to master more than half of the military power of the entire empire?

How many years, decades, or hundreds of years?

Then, let alone rule, you can have a funeral directly.

Crossbones are undoubtedly very clear about what their leader is worried about, and explained helplessly: "There is no way, I have too few people to use now. Especially if you have to be loyal to Hydra, you can eliminate about 50% of the guys. If you can, I suggest you better absorb some aliens to join our team. In this way, your efficiency can be several times faster in an instant."

"Absorb aliens?"

The red skull touched his chin and fell into deep thought.

It’s not that he didn’t think about it, but that he was not sure that these higher civilizations that master advanced knowledge and technology believed in the concepts advocated by Hydra.

"I have to try it before I know it. And I think this is our only choice at the moment." After saying that, Crossbones stroked their chest with one hand and bowed deeply and advised him.

As Hydra's most loyal core member, he hopes that John Schmidt can lead the entire organization to complete this leap from quantitative change to qualitative change.

"Okay, then do as you said. But be careful at the beginning, and you must expose any flaws." The Red Skull hesitated for a while, and finally chose to agree.

In this way, Hydra's key transformation began.

...

Meanwhile, a group of superheroes, including Tony Stark, who are in the Avengers headquarters in New York, are gathering together frownly.

However, compared to before, there are almost half of the people here.

In addition to the Scarlet Witch Wanda who stayed in Sky City and the Vision that was thrown on an alien planet, the Spider Peter Parker disappeared, Dr. Strange Stephen Strange disappeared, Panther Tchara disappeared, and Winter Warrior Bucky disappeared.

In addition, almost half of the alien population has evaporated from the world.

Not to mention that the earth's population suddenly disappeared by one-half.

Such heavy losses have made these people who are used to saving the world as their mission on weekdays feel unprecedented pain, frustration and depression.

Especially Thor, who had just been crowned king, has received news that Asgard had reduced almost half of the population out of thin air. He was sitting on the sofa with his hands covering his face, not knowing how to go back to face the people who have lost their husbands, wives, children, fathers and mothers.

I don’t know how to explain to my friend Dwarf King why he failed to fulfill his promise of revenge.

silence!

Terrible silence!

It seemed that even the air had become solidified.

After more than ten minutes, Tony Stark finally broke the tranquility and took the initiative to speak: "Sorry, guys, I disappointed you and the world."

"No, it's not your fault."

Captain America has undoubtedly watched the battle video and understands how tricky and terrible the enemy Thanos is this time.

He can guarantee that even if he participates in the war, the result will probably not be much different.

Even the power of an Infinity Stone cannot be stopped.

"What should we do now?" Colson touched his almost bald forehead, and his tone showed confusion.

In the past, he believed that SHIELD was too constrained by the International Security Council and could not fulfill its responsibilities to surround the earth.

But this problem can be solved by adding to the Avengers with stronger powers.

But now it seems that when facing a truly terrifying enemy, the once invincible Avengers will be powerless.

"I don't know! Thanos has obviously achieved his goal and left us a huge mess. If nothing unexpected happens, the countries will start to promote the process of integration and finally form a Earth Federation." Tony Stark gently rubbed his slightly swollen forehead.

It is not difficult to see from the two swollen dark circles that he suffered from severe insomnia these two days and had basically not slept much.

Because once you close your eyes, those faces on the list of deaths will appear in your mind.

fear!

anxiety!

Blame yourself!

Various negative emotions trouble this genius who had problems in his heart.

"Earth Federation? Will the capital groups behind Wall Street allow the government to do this?" Colson said with a strong questioning.

As a genuine old American, he knew very well the virtues of this group of vested interests and the politicians.

It is better to expect them to do something practical that benefits the country and the people, than to expect dogs to change their shit.

"They can't help this matter. Don't worry, someone has cleared all obstacles for us. Next, human history will open a new chapter."

When saying this, Iron Man's originally depressed eyes revealed a little expectation.

After all, since a long time ago, he longed for humans on Earth to break the barriers between the country, nation and religious beliefs and completely integrate them together to form a whole.

But it is a bit ironic that the problems that were not resolved in peacetime have been driven by the current huge crisis.

To some extent, it can be considered a blessing in disguise.

"Oh, I hope so."

Natasha sighed slightly, her thoughts had floated back to her daughter.

She was very lucky that neither herself nor her daughter was destroyed by Thanos's finger snap.

In contrast, Hawkeye, who had not come at all, lost her son and daughter, and rushed out like crazy. She is now cleaning up the gangs and mafia who took advantage of the situation to vent her emotions.

"Thor, when are you going back?" Steve Rogers looked up at the decadent Thor.

The latter raised the bottle, sipped the valuable whiskey at a high value, then burped, shook his head with a wry smile: "No! I don't plan to go back. If I don't mind, I hope to settle down on Earth."

"Stay? Damn it! You're trying to escape, right?" Iron Man raised his eyebrows in surprise.

"Escape? No, I just feel that I am not qualified to be the king of Asgard. Maybe it would be better for my mother to rule, at least she has enough wisdom and patience. Oh, by the way, if you see Allen appear, remember to inform me immediately. I want to ask him in person why he stands by and watches about this."

With the last word blurted out, Thor threw the empty wine bottle in his hand towards the wall not far away.

Clang!

The glass bottle collided with the wall, and countless pieces of glass burst out and fell on the ground.

It can be seen that he was filled with resentment towards Allen.

"By the way, Pitro, has Wanda not contacted you recently?" Tony Stark suddenly remembered that before Allen disappeared, he took away Kuaiyin's twin sister.

The latter hurriedly shook his head: "No. She has never contacted me since she left last time."

"So has she ever mentioned to you that she would leave forever, or say goodbye?" Tony Stark continued to ask.

This time, Kuaiyin thought for a long time and finally replied: "She promised me that if she decided to leave, she would say hello to me in advance. However, when she left this time, there was no such thing yet. So I think Wanda should have not left yet, but for some reason, it is not convenient to contact us."

"Tony, have you found any problem?" Black Widow keenly noticed Iron Man's abnormal reaction.

"Well! I have a little clue. I feel that Allen seems to be planning an amazing big move. Do you remember that he had said before about the origin of Wanda Chaos Magic? If nothing unexpected happens, the target he wants to deal with this time should be the God of Underworld Sithorne. Killing Domaum before was a try to confirm whether the Dimensional Demon God could really kill it."

Tony Stark quickly expressed his guess.
