The Returning Parallel Avengers Team
Even though Ginny didn't know that Harry had the so-called Basil's Love Charm, she wasn't worried that he would be in danger.
Basil is the strongest being in this universe. As a student of his school and a wizard with a contract with him, who is practically Perpetual Motion Machine of magic, it's natural that you can't help but feel a bit arrogant.
(Meanwhile, the people in the Wizarding World of the movie are even more amazed that the power of technology can also allow them to travel to other universes.)
(And they were curious about that 'pure' technological world.)
(They were all disappointed that Ron couldn't come along.)
Harry was also very disappointed.
He couldn't bring his good brother Ron on this trip.
But he wasn't the only one in the Justice League who suffered a regret.
The same applies to the obese Thor and the parallel Rocket.
"Why can't I bring the Hammer God with me (because this universe's version of myself merged with Mjolnir, and out of some jealousy he was unwilling to admit, he called him the Hammer God)."
"What did Layla do to you, you heartless, steel-hearted old man!"
Parallel Captain America also looked at Parallel Tony. In fact, if Bucky and Peggy from this universe hadn't refused to go with him, he would have wanted to be like the obese Thor and the others.
Moreover, the Pingxing Nebula wasn't going back with them, so they were already one person short.
So he was very curious about how Parallel Tony would answer.
"Neither the 'real' Thor nor the 'married man' is necessary for our mission to collect the gems," Parallel Tony said seriously. "This is about saving the lost half of life, and I want to take it more seriously."
"Instead of treating it as a childish outing," Parallel Captain America replied, understanding Parallel Tony's thoughts at that moment.
He had been on the battlefield and had seen people who, relying on their superior weapons, took everything lightly.
"You can come find them anytime after the mission is complete," Dr. Green Banner said. "We've formed an alliance now."
He waved his bracelet; it was an inter-universe communicator that Tony and Doctor Strange had made together, and each of them had one.
This is also Quantum Tunnel opening device.
To be precise, intercosmic communication is achieved through the quantum universe.
"Let's begin. I can't wait to see Peter again," said Parallel Tony, who was no longer afraid to mention the name, confident that the mission would be a success.
Of course, it's mostly because he's become desensitized to Peter in this world after spending so much time with him.
"He'll be very surprised," Parallel Captain America joked, "To wake up and find himself a member of the Interdimensional Alliance."
"Lila." Parallel Hawkeye was already muttering his child's name.
Parallel Black Widow also empathized and was moved to tears.
"So fast?" War Weapon Rhodey shrugged. "I haven't even had my fill of complaining online yet."
Rhodey was referring to the interstellar network, while the target of the criticism was a cosmic civilization that thought it could escape the Snap by ascending to a higher dimension.
Now the entire universe knows what Thanos, this madman, is trying to do: embed himself into the laws and underlying structure of the universe, the Snap every so often.
This makes those acts of escaping civilization seem like a joke.
Furthermore, as a soldier, what he despised most was desertion.
"Also, we still haven't found out where the information leaked from, how Thanos..." He trailed off, noticing the strange expressions on everyone's faces. "You all know?"
A unified silence represents the answer.
Of course, it wasn't Ralph who was exposed.
Because Ron habitually plotted loudly, the news had already spread.
Everyone in the Justice League believed it was an unintentional mistake by Ron.
Harry thought so too, and he feigned some nervousness, changing the subject, "Shall we begin?"
Scott, the honest Ant-Man, thought Harry was genuinely nervous and quickly reassured him, "It's just about getting smaller. The Quantum Realm is a separate microcosm. To get in, you have to become extremely small, smaller than an atom."
"The mechanism by which time works is different in the Quantum Realm, and we travel back in time using this principle."
"First, let's confirm that time travel is..." Harry asked curiously. He had a general understanding of this universe, except that there were no wizards, Duel Arena, and Thanos successfully snapped his the Snap.
"First, June 21, 2018," Parallel Tony said, "The planet where we killed Thanos. That's the time he destroyed the Infinity Stones."
"So we're going to have to face Thanos Stones?" Ant-Man Scott realized. "Are you kidding me? Those are Infinity Stones."
"Just like every Multiverse is different," Parallel Tony said, "the Infinity Stones are also different. According to my calculations in this universe, Thanos with the six Infinity Stones in our universe is no match for the Space Manipulator."
"I'll just cut off his head," said the obese Thor, summoning Stormbreaker from his body. "I'm much stronger than I used to be, and I haven't been idle these days. I've had the artifact implantation surgery done in Asgard, and I've even learned magic."
"I remember it was called the 'Destined Artifact' technology," said Ant-Man Scott, who was behind the door when the two Thors were talking.
"Don't worry about the details." The obese Thor waved his hand. "The important thing is that I just learned from Hela that artifacts not only bear the burden of excess divine power, but also feed on the thoughts of their owners, constantly changing and evolving, thus becoming stronger and stronger."
"Finally, it can even be transformed into other, more powerful forms through the user's ideas."
"You wouldn't..." Ant-Man Scott was filled with respect, realizing that Thor had also been working hard in private.
"Not yet." Ant-Man Scott almost stumbled and fell upon hearing this, then heard Thor chuckle and say, "But whether it can be transformed depends mainly on the user's mental state."
"The main purpose is to use the various emotions such as happiness, sadness, joy, grief, and fear generated by rapid changes as a driving force to bring the artifact to its full potential."
"Hela achieved this not long after undergoing surgery, thanks to the joy of her official coronation upon her release from prison. I can do it too against Thanos!"
"I like your confidence. I thought I'd already said this: all we have to do is subdue him, take the gem, erase his memory, and return it after we're done," Parallel Tony continued, summoning the [Space Manipulator] that was also implanted within him.
"Of course I know," said the obese Thor. "Leaving now?"
Parallel Tony nodded, then looked at everyone, "Alright, one, two, three, begin!"
He pressed the button on the bracelet, and a ray shot out from it, enveloping him and the others, and they instantly disappeared from the spot.
But in terms of timelines, they are simply shrinking, entering a bizarre and fantastical microcosm.
"I'm still not used to this new method. I don't feel safe at all," Ant-Man complained, his naked body shrunk by the ray without wearing the Ant-Man armor to avoid affecting his time travel.
(This is where the parallel universe is removed; it's no longer in the previous universe.)
Amidst the birdsong and fragrant flowers, in a field filled with fruits resembling sea cucumbers, the purple Giant solemnly removed his armor and hung them one by one on a scarecrow beside the field.
After today, he will retire completely.
Thinking of this, he looked at the gem on his right hand, the Infinity Gauntlet, "Finally, I've finally calculated the way to destroy you."
What?
His honed intuition compelled him to instinctively look up and raise his arm to activate the Infinity Stones.
Raise your arm?
"Ughhh~"
Before his eyes could even catch it, the entire arm was detached from his body.
"Ax."
He looked up at the person who had approached, his pupils shrinking sharply. "How come you've gained so much weight? Where are you from?"
The obese Thor wanted to curse, because with the change in his physique, the strength and power of the Stormbreaker, which was even greater than his own, were becoming increasingly apparent.
"Just as you guessed. I come from the future!" He wiped the Stormbreaker that had flown back, his eyes unable to stop staring at Thanos's neck.
"Why did you cut off his hand?!"
Thanos turned his head and recognized Tony Stark's voice. "Now we know why that sorcerer was willing to give up the Infinity Stones to save your life."
He was also a scientist, and having spent so much time with the Space Stone, he could roughly estimate the power of the azure, constantly glowing armor.
"Because you will bring your team, a team far stronger than mine with six gems, to reclaim the gems, destroy my achievements, and throw this universe back into imbalance."
"I should have killed you long ago."
"But we won't kill you," Tony said cheerfully, tossing the Infinity Gauntlet, along with Thanos's arm, to Rocket Raccoon.
"I'll put your arm back on." Rocket Raccoon took off his glove and handed it to Dr. Banner, then examined the cut surface. "Hmm, we need to remove Big Fatty's power first."
Harry had thought he would play an important role here.
In the end, he didn't even need to lift a finger.
To feel more involved, he quickly pulled out his wand, "And the restoration area, Reparo."
However, it wasn't just the farmland destroyed by the axe that Reparo as if time had reversed.
Even the purple arm that Rocket Raccoon was holding disappeared into thin air and returned to Thanos's body.
It was only because of the Infinity Gauntlet, or perhaps the Infinity Stones, and because Banner held on tightly, that it didn't disappear.
"What's going on?" Harry asked in surprise, and then quickly Thanos, who had regained his color and had a healthy body, into a Petrificus Totalus.
"Boy, it's because you're so much stronger than you used to be," Tony said. "While I'm still a beginner when it comes to magic, I know a lot about gems, especially the Space Stone."
"After being trained by my other self, your magic has long been imbued with the power of the gem, making it an inseparable part of you."
"Ah~" Harry looked at his hands. "No wonder my eyes are still blue after all this time. I've been on a winning streak during duels."
"Alright, it's your turn." Tony looked at Banner.
Because Banner awakened the Memory Charm, and through duels and learning, he discovered that this spell was the one he was most proficient in.
Banner wasn't surprised by this; accepting the Hulk and transforming into Doc Green was, in itself, a process of forgetting his past self.
He is no longer Banner, nor Hulk, but a combination of both.
"Obliviate." A large green hand rested on Thanos's head.
Ten seconds later, Banner looked up. "Okay, he'll stay in a dazed state for another minute."
"We should go," Captain America said.
Rhodey held up the gloves. "Are we taking the gloves with us?"
"Even the Infinity Gauntlet has its limits when it comes to the gems," Tony said, waving his hand. The Infinity Gauntlet appeared out of thin air in Thanos's hand, who was in a daze.
The six Infinity Stones appeared above the hole left in his chest as Space Manipulator.
"It's time to go back. The date is October 16, 2023."
Ten figures appeared on the Quantum Tunnel shuttle platform.
"Although we don't need to the Snap, it's still more appropriate this way."
Seeing Tony eagerly about to the Snap as soon as he returned, Captain America, who was the first to notice, quickly stopped him, "No! Stark!"
"Too late!" With a crisp the Snap, Tony's roulette wheel spun, and the six gems glowed.
"Are you alright?" Captain America looked at Tony, who had removed his faceplate and was looking relaxed. "You said that the energy contained in the Snap is enough to ignite an entire continent."
"Who do you think I am?" Tony shrugged.
"A genius, a billionaire, a playboy, a philanthropist," Captain America said with a smile. The two exchanged a glance, as if they had returned to the S.H.I.E.L.D.. space base in 2012.
Tony looked away. "I don't recognize playboys. There's only one good man here who's returned to his family, a good father."
"Laura's call!" Hawkeye's trembling movements and the sound of him pulling out his treasured phone drew everyone's attention.
"Speaking of the phone," Tony commanded Friday, "Connect to my cell phone." He grinned. "I knew Pajama Baby would contact me as soon as she got back."
"Damn it, let Peter come straight here. The annoying guy is coming."
The "Space Manipulator" outfit he wears, as the name suggests, represents the control and mastery of space itself.
Tony sensed the ripples in the surrounding space, and the way they were rising and falling was familiar. It was the kind of magic he often encountered in another universe: portals, the magic of Kamar-Taj, also known as the "Dimensional Gate" or "Arcane Gate."
"You're still alive? What happened?" This was the first question Doctor Strange asked Tony as he walked out of the portal.
"Of course I'm alive," Tony replied in a somewhat sarcastic tone, and then, without any hesitation or gesturing, opened another, larger, and more stable portal in front of Doctor Strange.
"You have magic?" Doctor Strange was shocked.
"Mr. Stark?" Peter exclaimed in surprise from behind the door, stepping over it. "What's going on here?"
"It's simple." Tony Captain America exchanged a glance, then said in unison, "We saved the world."
"There's one more thing." Harry raised his hand.
"Who are you?" Doctor Strange raised an eyebrow. "A sorcerer?"
"I am a wizard," Harry said irritably. He could already tell that the Sorcerer Supreme of this other world seemed to be quite brainless and disliked by Mr. Stark.
"That's true." Harry's words reminded Captain America, "We should go return the gems. The sooner we finish our mission, the sooner I can go back to Hogwarts with Harry."
"Back?" Tony's words froze.
"Peggy is there." Captain America's voice suddenly softened.
