The Avengers Arrive in the Wrong Place

"If I ever get the chance, I definitely want to study in Wakanda. Their technology system is entirely built on Vibranium, completely different from ours. Atlantis would be great too, a kingdom the Deep, but I've heard their king, Namor, isn't very friendly towards humans. Ron, you've grown taller again. Harry's supposedly kidnapped by the Skrull, do you know the details? How much do you know about Attila? Why don't you go do an internship in space? Look at my hair, is it messy? I don't want Michelle to see it—"

Peter great in every way, except he has a mouth.

Ron quickly stopped him. "Can we take it one step at a time? The Skrull who kidnapped Harry are already in Azkaban. I don't know anything about Attila, I didn't inherit Inhuman blood from my mother's side, and your hair isn't messy."

"Ned, he should always be with you."

"It's Thompson. That guy bragged to us about going to Hogsmeade early," Peter said helplessly. "He even made Kree friends, and Madam Rosmerta of the Three Broomsticks is smitten with him. There's this squinty-eyed guy named Shang-Chi -Chi causing trouble, though he pretends to be from Dragon Country when he's clearly from Kimchi Country. Ned wanted to gather some information about Hogsmeade beforehand. This should be true; he's Slytherin and has a good relationship with the Malfoy. We all know the Malfoy family are quite influential in the Wizarding World."

"Madam Rosmerta? Lies!" Ron recalled Tom's appearance: thin and short, with dark skin. "Wait, Shang-Chi?"

"You know him?" Peter curiously.

"That name sounds a bit like something from Dragon Country," Ron said casually. "I think I saw Lavender's back. I'm going now."

Watching Ron's departing figure, Peter frowned. "I always felt there was something off about him, because of Shang-Chi."

How could this be? How could this be!

Ron's heart was in turmoil at that moment.

He never took the mission seriously because he thought that as long as he didn't actively look for Shang -Shang-Chi news of him, and he wouldn't have to do anything.

Now, he finally realized God's power; He had probably already arranged everything.

Just like Trelawney's Prophecy of the Chosen One, even without the Prophecy, Harry and Voldemort would still be locked in a life-or-death struggle. Harry and his parents' sense of justice would not allow Voldemort and his cronies to do evil, and Voldemort would not tolerate anyone's rebellion.

Therefore, this is also the relationship between him Shang-Chi.

Even without this mission, there would still be a life-or-death conflict between him Shang-Chi.

As Ron thought this, he had already arrived at the top of the Gryffindor Tower on his flying skateboard. Because more and more students were using flying machines, the Gryffindor Tower, like Ravenclaw's, had a platform for students to land.

Even now, Ron has never considered that Shang-Chi might be righteous and shouldn't have died.

He also watched the live broadcast of the Triwizard Tournament.

The mission in the Magic Immortal World is to prevent the innocent Cedric from being killed by a sealed fragment of Voldemort's soul and becoming a fairy.

The mission of the Rune Card World is to prevent the extinction of wizards brought about by the destruction of the Mother-Child River.

As for the Starry World, its main purpose is to determine the ranking of Champion, so it's normal that it doesn't have much other significance.

Therefore, in Ron's view, Shang-Chi's death was necessary; the guy had already found a way to die!

After all, even when Voldemort in the Rune Card World was preparing to destroy the Mother-Child River, the quest description didn't mention killing Voldemort.

Combined with what Ron overheard at the space station— that Odin is dead, Thanos is unfazed and preparing to come to Earth to seize the Infinity Stones the Snap to Carnage the entire universe—all of this might actually happen.

It's all because of Shang-Chi, this insignificant being.

The universe will be saved if he is killed.

Having figured this out, Ron, who had already put down his luggage and sat on the four-poster bed with his nameplate on it, revealed an extremely determined expression.

He decided that after dinner he would go to Fred and George to ask about the Secret Passage to Hogsmeade.

Basil did not smile at the moment, sensing that Ron had made a decision.

Because

As usual, a tall, muscular blond man patrolled the Forbidden Forest, carrying a shield.

If any students in the human world saw him, they would surely exclaim— Captain America!

And in fact, he is Steve Rogers.

After waking up from 70 years of being frozen, he discovers that everyone in the universe has gained magic, and Peggy is still alive and eternally young.

More importantly, Bucky is still here.

Although Bucky was brainwashed by Hydra and turned into the Winter Soldier, he killed the Stark.

But at least Bucky is still around, and Hydra has fallen apart.

He and Peggy saved Bucky from Stark's son, who became the Director of S.H.I.E.L.D.., in exchange for being exiled to the Merlin Dimension along with Bucky.

Now, he, Peggy, and Bucky are the guardians of this mysterious forest.

The dangerous yet fascinating creatures inside wouldn't rust his still-young body in this semi-retired life.

"What's that noise?" Captain America raised his shield, his body, enhanced by the [Super Soldier Serum], sensing something was wrong.

"Where is this, Tony? This isn't New York at all. There are no Chitauri, and no Stark Tower."

Captain America tensed up; he instantly recognized the voice: 'Skrull.' Having read the Daily Prophet, he immediately thought of this possibility.

"This might not even be Earth. I bet I saw a blue bird that could teleport."

"Shut up, Scott. I recognize these trees—oaks, ash trees. Maybe this is an ecosystem built by some rich person or biologist, that's why there are... What's that? A unicorn!"

"Shut up, all of you! It's impossible for it to be wrong. I've tested it countless times. Ugh, how can the magnetic field here be so chaotic? My armor is practically ruined, damn it! I need a lab to overcome this— Steve?"

This is what Captain America saw when he arrived.

Tony, who looked older with graying temples, was staring blankly at him.

There's another "him," a man I don't know, and a well-dressed, rational Hulk wearing glasses.

Hulk isn't incapable of communication, but he's more like a child, and it's nothing like having Hulk's body combined with Bruce's mind.

"You?"

The idea that these people were Skrull had vanished from Captain America's mind. "Time-Turner? Or perhaps Hour Reversal Charm?"

"Did you learn those words from magicians?" Tony, though sharp-tongued, immediately guessed another possibility. "Parallel universe? You wouldn't happen to be able to do magic in this world, would you?"

Captain America's shield transformed into an eagle. "You mean it? This is magic. You wouldn't be so sure, I'm starting to believe you're from a parallel universe. Nobody in this universe doesn't know magic."

"You can close your eyes, concentrate, and you should discover—"

Click—

Before Captain America could finish speaking, Scott had already done it, resulting in his consciousness entering the Duel Arena and his body falling and breaking a dead branch.

"What did you do?!" Parallel Captain America raised his shield, poised to attack, when he saw Scott wake up, his right hand swollen several times its normal size.

"You've awakened the Engorgement Charm, not bad luck," Captain America said.

"Guys," Scott said, putting his hand back in place, "I think I understand what's going on."

Tony gestured for people to shut up. "I understand now. There's a mysterious mechanism in this universe that allows all life to possess magic. The blue bird Scott saw and the unicorn Steve saw were probably life forms created through magic."

"It's also possible that they always existed. With Thor and Strange's magic tricks around, it's not a big deal if there are unicorn dragons."

"You're absolutely right, Tony Stark."

"Headmaster?!!"

Basil ignored Captain America's surprise. "You don't think I'm completely unaware of anomalies within my own dimension, do you? I know everything about Nick Fury, who should be in prison but is lurking beneath Hogsmeade, and these visitors from other universes."

"In fact, it wasn't just you few who arrived; I just delayed their arrival." Basil waved his hand, and several flashes of lightning appeared, revealing six figures dressed in full-body gray and red clothing in the woods.

"Thor, Black Widow Natasha, Hawkeye Clint, War Machine Rhodey, Rocket Raccoon, and Nebula, Thanos' daughter Nebula."

As Basil revealed their identities, their nanotechnology-enhanced bodysuits retracted to their waists, revealing their everyday clothes underneath.

"A remarkable technology, it can barely function even within Magic Field."

The people named by Basil also regained consciousness after a brief period of dizziness caused by the time displacement.

"Stark, this is not Asgard."

"I am not a raccoon."

"This is not the Planet Vormir."

"Two captains?"

"It's not Planet Morag either."

"Who are you?"

Of the six, only Nebula focused her main attention on Basil.

Scott repeatedly enlarged his arms, claiming he possessed magic, but no one paid any attention.

"I?"

Everyone looked at Basil.

"Lord of Merlin Dimension, Headmaster of the Magic Academy on the land beneath your feet."

"A sorcerer?" The obese Thor said impatiently. "We don't care who you are. We have to save our world, Stark. We have to go back immediately."

Tony shook his head. "It's hopeless. We don't have enough Pym Particles left to collect all the Infinity Stones."

Scott said doubtfully, "You're supposed to be the smartest person. This is a brand new parallel universe. We can simply borrow from Dr. Pym in this world, or even collect Infinity Stones from this world."

"He's just the smartest person on Earth," Rocket Raccoon retorted.

Tony ignored Rocket's words and Scott's sarcasm, excitedly pacing around in circles. "How could I not have thought of that? With my intelligence, I could completely crack the Pym Particles in this world."

"I have plenty of time. The time to go back has been set, so it's like only one second has passed."

"Leboski, you can still lose weight."

"We can all learn magic before we go back." Scott raised his swollen right hand again.

"Me?" The obese Thor ignored Scott and pointed to himself. He remembered Tony calling him that before. "Although I didn't quite understand, I think I can go find my father. I still have so much to learn from him, and my mother!"

Basil coughed. "I'm sorry, you're too late. Your father in this world has already passed away. You can still see your mother."

"My mother isn't dead?" the obese Thor exclaimed in surprise.

It wasn't that he wanted his mother to die, but rather that in his mind, his mother should have died first at the Dark Elf, and then at the hands of his father.

Rocket Raccoon, having some knowledge of Thor's past, understood what Thor meant. He then rolled his eyes. "Looks like you're not just full of fat, your brain is too. That Ant-Man can learn magic, which means this universe is exceptionally different from ours."

"Magic?" the obese Thor muttered. "I hate this stuff, it's a hassle, and it doesn't have my hammer—" Seeing Stormbreaker point its blade at him, he quickly added, "And my axe is much better."

Then, his right hand behind his back seemed to be summoning something.

Basil cautioned, "As I said, this is the Merlin Dimension. Unless you are on the other side of the Heart of Merlin, you cannot summon your hammer."

"You think I'm worthy of it?" The obese Thor couldn't help but laugh out loud, not even noticing that Stormbreaker was right next to his neck.

"Of course," Basil nodded. "In the original future, you did indeed summon it into your hands. Oh, and your mother also told you to eat more vegetables."

"Vegetables?" The obese Thor looked at his belly guiltily.

Parallel Captain America and Tony noticed the key, noticed the 'original future'.

Before Tony could ask, Captain America asked, "The original future? We succeeded?"

Basil nodded.

"That's awesome!" Parallel Captain America's tense muscles instantly relaxed.

Tony also let out a sigh of relief.

"But," Basil drawled, "That also means sacrifice. You've forgotten that the galaxy where Planet Morag is located is also Thanos."

"And you just happened to send Nebula and Rhodey." At this point, Basil snapped his the Snap. "And Nebula's body is almost entirely mechanical."

Everyone except Captain America in this world reacted instinctively.

"Don't worry, I'm not wearing the Infinity Gauntlet."

"I—" Nebula tried to speak, but found her voice had become incredibly clear, "My body."

She has returned to her physical body, and her beautiful blue hair has reappeared.

Tears flowed involuntarily.

Every time she lost to Gamora, a part of her body was forcibly transformed into a machine.

Finally, he completely lost his physical body.

"I'm a person again. Not a machine, not..." she choked out, almost greedily stroking her body.

Everyone fell silent.

Even if they longed to know the future, they did not want to disturb Nebula's joy of being reborn.
