When Li Haiyang heard Leo's words, he couldn't help but show a hint of surprise.

Then, he couldn't help but smile, "Uncle Li, you don't need to worry about this."

"Asgardians will not interfere in any situation on Earth, or rather, their existence is to protect Earth. They will step forward when Earth is in danger. Of course, this danger doesn't refer to wars or plagues between countries."

"It's more about the existence of extraordinary powers, like this alien invasion, or even similar things happening in the future, that Asgard will take action."

"Being manipulated by the American government? You really don't need to worry about that. Asgard has its own pride, and they wouldn't bother to make any moves on Earth."

"As for the Golden Legend, there's even less to worry about. He has no such intentions."

Leo looked at Uncle Li, who was staring intently at him, and softly spoke these impactful words, each one hitting Li Haiyang's heart.

"How do you know this? Do you know them?" Li Haiyang looked at Leo and said word by word.

"You already know that I know Iron Man Tony Stark, so naturally, I would come into contact with other members of the Avengers. Believe me, they won't change the conflicts between countries."

"What they yearn for is peace. From the day they were established, they have carried the responsibility of protection."

"Not just for America, but after the baptism of the Chitauri invasion, the Avengers' responsibility now encompasses the entire Earth."

"Perhaps the phrase 'maintaining world peace' sounds a bit funny, but it is indeed what they hope for in their hearts. Everyone with such abilities will strive to implement this."

"They are like you. However, you are for China, while they are for everyone."

"Of course, I don't mean anything else. You are also respectable beings, it's just that Earthlings are still too weak in the universe right now and need a stronger group of people to shoulder the burden."

As Leo spoke, he couldn't help but recall the Xandar civilization, the Kree civilization he saw in space, and even the vast interstellar pirate organizations he had heard of, as well as the Mad Titan Thanos.

Each of these powers had the strength to easily destroy Earth. If it weren't for Asgard constantly protecting Earth, and if Earth's location weren't so hidden, it might have been swallowed up long ago.

Therefore, Earthlings are still too weak. Compared to those technologically advanced alien civilizations, they are truly vulnerable.

Even so, the Avengers have never given up. At the very least, they are all desperately working towards this goal.

Li Haiyang looked at Leo sitting in front of him and fell silent.

"Do you know the identity of the Golden Legend?" he finally said.

"I only know that he poses no threat to you, Uncle Li. Perhaps you have devoted your entire body and mind to the safety of the country, but those with extraordinary abilities, those who can see further, truly don't care about these disputes on Earth."

"The hidden crises in the universe are more terrifying than war. Perhaps you are still surprised by the power of the Chitauri."

"But the Chitauri civilization is one that has long been subdued. They are merely a vanguard probing force for someone."

Leo said with some emotion.

"It's still because there are some more powerful extraordinary forces on Earth now that makes him hesitate. When these extraordinary forces disappear, his arrival will be the real disaster."

Before he knew it, Leo had said such a long passage, much of which was his own thoughts and facts that he wanted to express.

After all, even if he told Li Haiyang, it wouldn't affect the course of events.

Moreover, perhaps a new force could be gathered in China. If that were to happen, Leo would be very gratified.

Li Haiyang looked at Leo, his eyes filled with uncontrollable shock. Reason told him that this was just Leo's personal statement, and he couldn't confirm its truth.

But deep down, he couldn't help but believe everything Leo said. Looking at Leo's sincere words, he probably had already confirmed these things in his heart.

"You... How do you know so much? What exactly is your identity?"

"Also, do you want to develop in your home country?"

Looking at Leo opposite him, Li Haiyang said directly.

Leo straightened his body and looked at Li Haiyang, "I've told you everything I can. I'm not lying to you. Whether you believe it or not is up to you."

"I created the Black Prison, and I'm not afraid to tell you that. My only goal is to make the surrounding area quieter and ensure people's safety. I don't care about anything else."

"As for Chen Haoran, he appeared in the Black Prison because of S.H.I.E.L.D. matters. There's no need to go into detail about it."

"However, Uncle Li, what kind of organization are you? Do you have any connection with S.H.I.E.L.D.? I remember Chen Haoran was on S.H.I.E.L.D.'s list. How did he get involved with you?"

Seeing Leo's attitude, it seemed that no matter what he said, he wouldn't answer any more questions.

Li Haiyang's mind raced, recalling everything Leo had said before and began to analyze.

Leo was not in a hurry, sitting calmly on the sofa and drinking tea, quietly watching Li Haiyang.

After a full few minutes, Li Haiyang prepared to speak again.

"Uncle Li, you should tell me about your organization first, otherwise I won't answer any questions."

This single sentence blocked Li Haiyang's prepared words.

After another two minutes, Li Haiyang sat up straight again, "Okay, given that you are Chinese and have an important role in this mission, I can tell you some information."

"Our organization is an intelligence and special agent organization directly under the Central Government of China. At the same time, we are also a special task force organization with extremely high authority. It was established after the founding of the country and has been striving for the rise of China."

"S.H.I.E.L.D. cooperates with many countries around the world. It was established during World War II and is currently the largest agent organization in the world. We have a superficial cooperative relationship with them and have established a S.H.I.E.L.D. branch for them in Hong Kong."

"We have the purpose and responsibility of joint supervision. Among them, Chen Haoran, a Chinese person in China, is also registered with us. However, this operation did not provide us with a detailed report."

"Therefore, when we discovered Chen Haoran's presence this time, we naturally had to investigate. Even if it wasn't me carrying out this mission, someone else would have."

Li Haiyang said sternly to Leo.

"What is your organization called?" Leo asked curiously.

"We are called..."
