The Exiled Black Bolt

Vida's anger was mostly a facade.

She was indeed angry, angry that even though she had forced herself to slander the respected Basil, none of Helen Cho and the others wanted to give up or develop any resentment towards Basil.

However, this portion accounts for a very small percentage.

As a woman, she was indeed jealous.

But as a believer who revered Basil as a god, she, like Helen Cho and the others, didn't care at all that Basil had other women.

Her test this time was actually more about eliminating women she didn't think were worthy of being with Basil.

In fact, Basil's contact with Skye, Jane, Stacey today was all secretly facilitated by her.

She wanted her god to better experience human life, so she took the initiative to select girls that she considered excellent, beautiful, and virtuous for Basil, and created opportunities for them to spend time with Basil.

Skye was the first, because she knew Skye and saw the eagerness in her eyes when she looked at Basil.

But the second and third are not Jane and Stacey.

They just happened to be there, actively seeking out opportunities to run into Basil, and Vida went along with it.

The second one is the girl Helen asked her to meet— Crystal.

Since the first one was the daughter of the Earth's Inhumans Queen, the second one couldn't be too far off.

"What? The Sorcerer Supreme will show me around Hogwarts!"

Looking at Crystal, who was excitedly gesturing and emitting a shrill laugh, completely lacking any semblance of Crystal, Vida began to doubt whether she had made the wrong choice.

But she quickly relaxed.

She's just arranging opportunities; whether they're accepted is up to God.

"Quiet, girl."

"This is a rare opportunity. I suggest you ask him a few questions, anything at all, since he knows everything."

"How can we stop Thanos from the Snap?" As a member of the Inhumans, Crystal finally managed to regain some of her composure.

"That's fine too," Vida replied with absolute certainty.

Thanos, who was mentioned by the Crystal, was frowning and extremely anxious.

"My lord, our great undertaking is progressing smoothly, why do you seem so troubled?" Ebony Maw was the first to notice Thanos's thoughts.

"Wizards," Thanos sighed. "In the human world, Inhuman of Attilan have wizards."

"Are you worried about hurting them?" Ebony Maw asked.

Thanos nodded. "They are a precious asset to this universe, an asset whose power cannot be reproduced or copied."

"Voldemort II," Ebony Maw said.

"Him?" Thanos asked.

"Didn't he handle the last mission very well?" Ebony Maw said. "He cleaned up that Skrull's memory cleanly and efficiently."

"You want him to create chaos so that the wizards have to return to Merlin Dimension?" Thanos raised an eyebrow. "He's good, but not quite there yet."

"Hogsmeade Day," Ebony Maw reminded him.

"Even the power of the gems can't reach there." Thanos tapped the armrest more frequently with his fingers.

"Number 1 said that Hogwarts has a new student— Crystal, an Inhumans girl from Attilan. She is of Inhumans royalty, and her sister is Black Bolt's wife," Ebony Maw added.

"Black Bolt?" Thanos's voice rose slightly. "His Sonic Scream is troublesome. If he weren't relatively weak, I would have the Power Stone."

The sound emitted by Black Bolt that can trigger natural phenomena such as volcanic eruptions and tsunamis, and even tear through space and time, is not a sound wave, but Sonic Scream. It can be emitted in a vacuum, and its energy comes from the electronic energy that Black Bolt collects from the surrounding environment.

The tuning fork on his head wasn't an amplifier either, because the destructive power of his sound was already great enough.

It helps him to use energy for more and more targeted purposes with smaller emissions, such as electronic energy explosions, flight, enhancing physical strength, surviving in a vacuum, and improving his thinking ability to analyze and deal with various dilemmas.

In this universe, Black Bolt, who possesses magic, directly modified his respiratory tract and, combined with an unremarkable loud spell—a Sonorus —his Sonic Scream are the most terrifying weapon, and no life form except the Sorcerer Supreme can withstand them head-on.

Even Thanos could only resist by amplifying his control over [power] through the Power Stone.

"Unfortunately, such a powerful figure is not the only one in his own tribe," Ebony Maw continued. "His brother Maximus not only disagrees with him politically and tries to prove that he cannot control his own power, but he also overestimates himself, thinking that all powerful people are like his brother, limited by so-called political maneuvering."

"Albus Dumbledore gave him the illusion that wizards were also wizards."

"So..." Thanos smirked.

"So he will use the fact that the Crystal was left at Hogwarts as an excuse to launch a coup," Ebony Maw said with a smile. "Black Bolt happens to have an obvious weakness: because of the shadow of killing his parents, he has to go to a specially made soundproof room for meditation training every day."

"And Medusa was too weak."

,

"Magic is a cancer, a filth that makes us lose our purity and idle our innate abilities!"

Maximus is giving a speech at the Genetics Council meeting.

His Mind Stone abilities not only allow him to communicate directly with the consciousness of others, but also enable him to enter, paralyze, or control the thoughts of others, and to implant memories or cause targets to suffer from short-term amnesia.

The reason his speeches are so captivating, with no one in the audience reporting them, is because he has added a magical touch to them.

"Spark, whose ability is nothing more than creating Spark with a flick of his finger, is a lowly commoner who is only fit to work in the mines. He has no noble blood, yet he was promoted by my foolish brother and stands above us!"

"Air currents, which at most can only make a woman's skirt flutter, are now able to handle important matters in Attilan!"

"There are countless examples like this. They all came about because of so-called magic, because of my brother who is unworthy to lead the Inhuman."

"Our innate abilities determine the nobility of our bloodline and the perfection of our genetic factors. We should occupy a higher position, do easier work, and peacefully reproduce better offspring."

"Instead of letting inferior species, who are falsely powerful because of magic but whose bloodlines are still inferior and whose genetic factors are inferior, produce equally inferior offspring with the superior men and women who should be mating with us, thus destroying our race!"

"Can we accept this?"

"No!"

"Some people say that even if your brother is wrong, when faced with the crisis of Thanos, we should rely on those fake and powerful inferior races first, and not have conflicts with your brother. I used to think so too, and many people thought so too."

"But I was wrong!"

"As you all probably know, there was a scandal involving a member of our royal family not long ago."

"Kree Amaquelin (Crystal's full name), in order to escape the war, defied the royal ban and fled to Hogwarts, abandoning her own talents and instead learning so-called magic!"

"That's when I realized that our royal family had become a bit sick over time. I had to prune it to keep it healthy—cut off the parts that threatened the overall health."

"We must remove Black Bolt from power, right now!"

"Otherwise, we'll become cannon fodder on the battlefield, the vanguard. How can a tree with rotten roots grow strong?"

We must expel the wizard!

"Otherwise, we'll never be able to get rid of the magic."

"We must attack Hogsmeade. Of course, we are not attacking wizards; their race is naturally compatible with ours. We simply want to make our stance clear and force the Sorcerer Supreme to hand over our deserters and traitors!"

"Otherwise, more of our people will be scared away from Attilan before the battle even begins, allowing Thanos to accomplish his atrocity of destroying half the universe!"

Maximus's words have many flaws. For example, he has never directly answered why a coup should be staged now in the face of Thanos's crisis. The saying "to fight external enemies, one must first secure internal stability" does not fit the current situation of the Inhumans.

But his voice, full of seductive Mental Power, inspired the people in the hall, who said they would storm the palace and cut off Black Bolt's head to entertain Maximus.

Maximus quickly stopped them; in this situation, the most likely outcome was that they would be wiped out by a single cough from Black Bolt.

The city of Attilan was able to exist safely on the moon thanks to the anti-gravity engine and life support system in its central control room.

After Black Bolt's birth, in response to his dangerous abilities, the central control room constructed a new building to send a soundproof chamber designed to target Black Bolt out of the galaxy.

The keys to access the central control room are held by Black Bolt and Medusa respectively.

However, the Genetics Council set another rule: the central computer room would still be opened for the permitted member of the royal family, provided all council members agreed.

Maximus is now the chosen member of the royal family.

In the central control room, Maximus pressed the button amidst Medusa's horrified gaze.

A dazzling meteor streaked across the Milky Way.

Inside the soundproof room, Black Bolt, who was in a meditative state, opened his eyes. With a tremor of his throat, invisible Sonic Scream energy enveloped his body. His consciousness locked onto the nearest Life Planet, and the soundproof room began to spatially jump.

On Xandar, a white man dressed in a black bodysuit suddenly appeared on the street, attracting the attention of many aliens.

[Milano]

"You trash panda!" Star-Lord exclaimed angrily. "If it weren't for this space jump point, we could have arrived at Hogsmeade much earlier, but you made us end up on Xandar."

In the original Fateline, Xandar was equivalent to Hogsmeade in its current status.

Now that legitimate businesses have all moved to Hogsmeade, transactions on trading planets like Xandar have all become gray areas, or even black areas, like Knockturn Alley.

This includes, but is not limited to, human organ trafficking, slave trading, and murder orders.

"I didn't order the wrong thing," Rocket Raccoon said. "Since there's still time, I happen to have some business to conduct at Hogsmeade that I can't do right now."

"Oh!"

"How lively! Laser cannons right from the moment we arrived. No wonder it's the crime-ridden Xandar."

"Who is that guy?"

On the long street, the man in the black bodysuit simply strolled along, and anything that tried to approach him Oblivion and turned to ashes.

"Black Bolt," Nebula interjected, "My father's most formidable adversary besides the Sorcerer Supreme."

"Damn it!" Rocket Raccoon complained, "That muscular guy in the tights heard us, even through the spaceship!"

The man in the black bodysuit turned his head, his lips moving, and Accio towards the [Milano].

"I'm an Earthling too!" Star-Lord quickly replied.

Black Bolt changed his plan to directly break through the spaceship and arrive in front of everyone, instead opting for a space jump.

The next second, he appeared directly in the cockpit.

He looked into Star-Lord's eyes.

"Legilimency (silently)".

Their consciousnesses instantly connected.

A moment passed in the outside world, and the two had already finished communicating.

The hostility in Black Bolt's eyes vanished completely.

Star-Lord said smugly, "It's all thanks to me. Now he and I are friends, and our mission is to take His Majesty Black Bolt to Hogsmeade."

"Not Attilan?" Nebula asked. "His arrival here seems to be an accident. Doesn't he want to return to his kingdom first?"

Star-Lord was about to continue bragging when Gamora elbowed him, "Ouch—my stomach! I... I'll say it right away, for your sake, dear Gamora."

"That's right, Black Bolt guessed who did it—his brother. Royal families are always so complicated, all for power."

"His brother was too naive, unaware of the true laws of reality, and hostile to magic. He also knew that it couldn't kill him."

"So, all he'll achieve is what his brother has longed for—to flaunt the Inhuman's power in front of Hogsmeade. His brother just happens to have a perfect excuse; he'll definitely use this to get the wizards to hand over the Crystal. He has to stop him—"

"Crystal?" Rocket Raccoon's small eyes immediately lit up. "The legendary Philosopher's Stone that can permanently change matter and grant immortality? Or..."

"A name," Star-Lord explained.

Crystal was unaware of the earth-shattering events that had occurred in her homeland of Attilan.

At that moment, she only had eyes for the man beside her.

Under the Starlight, strolling by the lake with the most handsome man in the universe would be enough to rob her of all her ability to think.

Until

"This is the Black Lake," Basil explained earnestly, as if only to make amends for Vida's mistake of imprisoning the little girl in front of him for a day. "Of course, most people prefer to call it the Black Sea."

"It gathers all the aquatic Magical Creatures of the Merlin Dimension."

"Triton has always wanted to live here." Crystal was brought back to her senses by her cousin's wish. "He is my cousin, and like all royalty, he was mutated by the Terrigen Mist when he was an infant."

"But unfortunately, his awakened ability to survive freely underwater caused him extremely powerful side effects—he could no longer survive outside the aquatic environment."

"On land, one needs to constantly cast spells to keep oneself encased in water, or wear a breathing apparatus."

"So he prefers the feeling of freedom in the water, especially in natural waters."

"And this is the place he's been looking forward to the most, the legendary Sea of Miracles—All Blue."

"The name he gave to Black Lake."
