The Cosmic Cube

"Marvel's Magnetic Field Rotation"

"They don't possess any special power; they are merely weak Midgardian."

Hela slowly channeled her magic, breaking through the blockade of the Magnetic Field Rotation, and said slowly, "But they possess an extremely powerful artifact that implants false memories into the minds of those people, making them believe that their souls came from another universe."

"They themselves cannot perceive the existence of that item in any way. Even if they hold it in their hands or place it on their shoulders, they still believe it exists only in the depths of their souls or in a more hidden dimension. They call it the system."

"The communication between those people and that object was on a spiritual level, which is why they had this illusion."

"Judging from their behavior, the item called the system issues commands to them like Monarch, which they have to carry out. If they succeed, they will receive rewards from the system, and if they fail, they will be punished. Entering Helheim to try to marry me is one such mission."

"The so-called reward should be the authority to use that item. The higher the authority, the stronger the power they can wield. However, each of them does not directly use the system's power. Instead, they convert it into a power within a false memory implanted in them, and then use it."

Hela scoffed at this. Although the transformed energy had an unpredictable and unique nature, it still involved an extra step of transformation. Even though it only lasted for a brief moment, that seemingly insignificant moment became the death knell for those people.

Having accompanied Odin in battle for many years, Hela possesses an exceptionally keen understanding of combat tactics.

"What kind of thing is that?" The Great Leader sent out a War God, retrieved the fruit basket that had been hung up, and placed it in front of Hela.

When chatting, eating and talking at the same time is the most natural way to do it.

"It's a Cosmic Cube. From the outside, it looks exactly like the Tesseract, but unlike the shell containing the Space Stone, the system is a special, stable energy field. Energy from outside the universe is constantly being injected into it, giving it almost omnipotent power," Hela said. "Releasing energy shocks, altering gravity, manipulating matter—that Cosmic Cube can turn the user's thoughts into reality."

"The Cosmic Cube." Upon hearing Hela's account, the Great Leader guessed this by comparing it with the memories in his mind, because her description was too similar to the Cosmic Cube.

When the films were first made, neither the screenwriters nor Marvel Studios executives had ever imagined creating such a massive Marvel Cinematic Universe. As a result, the plots and character settings of the later films would often contradict the earlier ones, much to the dismay of fan fiction writers.

In the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the Tesseract, which contains the Infinity Stones, is distinguished from the concept of the Cosmic Cube.

The Cosmic Cube is a product Beyonders. Originating in an unknown dimension, they possess power surpassing "omniscience and omnipotence." In order to observe the evolution of life in the current universe, they bestowed the Cosmic Cube, infused with their dimensional energy, upon humanity.

The influence of higher dimensions on lower dimensions is unparalleled. Users of the Tesseract can even overturn the rules of the entire universe, just like the Joker in DC Comics who gained the power of the fifth-dimensional being, the Mischievous One. He has the power to command the entire universe and can modify reality at will, regardless of whether it conforms to logic and physical laws.

Furthermore, the Cosmic Cube possesses self-awareness and personality, making it equivalent to a life form beyond human perception.

For example, this Cosmic Cube that appeared in the current world has given the local inhabitants the concept of "time travelers" and is using the concept of a "system" from fantasy novels to guide them—but why?

What is the operating mechanism of the Cosmic Cube —or, as you understand it, what is its operating mechanism?

The Great Leader looked at Hela, the Death Goddess, who hadn't touched the fruit basket he'd brought, but was instead using magic to absorb its energy.

"Equivalent exchange. The energy inside that Cosmic Cube is almost infinite, and energy from outside the universe is constantly being injected into it, but it is very stingy. It will only release a little energy when those puppets act according to its commands, and at the same time, it will take something from our universe on a one-to-one basis—concepts, heat, emotions—all of which meet its requirements."

Hela picked up the orange and held it in her hand like a stress-relieving toy; it was her favorite fruit in the basket.

"Conservation of energy"

The Great Leader suddenly realized something: energy cannot be created or destroyed out of thin air; it can only be transformed from one form to another, or transferred from one object to another, while the total amount of energy remains unchanged.

The existence of the Cosmic Cube has not affected the universe to some extent; it simply replaces the energy of the current universe with its own energy.

Then he understood everything. Why was the protagonist of the Infinite Flow (Multiverse Flow) novel able to enter the Marvel Universe without being rejected by the world's consciousness in his own timeline? Because all the power he used came from the Marvel Universe, and that Cosmic Cube was his creation.

The Infinite Flow Male Protagonist embarks on the path of cultivation will definitely refine weapons. The existence of the Cosmic Cube belongs to the concept of the Marvel Universe. It will not be rejected when its power is not fully revealed. Then, he finds a few unlucky guys, gives them Golden Finger, and sets up a scheme for them. It couldn't be simpler.

Using the method of ants moving an elephant, the Infinite Flow Male Protagonist accumulated enough energy from tiny, insignificant places, and then defeated himself with a world-shaking blow.

"After you killed those hosts, where are their bodies, and what about the Cosmic Cube?"

The Great Leader stood up and asked very seriously.

"Those people came from different worlds. It was the power of the Cosmic Cube that forcibly brought them into our timeline. After they died, their existence was erased by the rules of the world, and the Cosmic Cube broke through space and escaped—they themselves didn't even know it. Although they had different experiences and backgrounds, they considered themselves to be the same person, only they never had the chance to meet each other."

Hela recounted all the information she had discovered in detail.

After nodding, the Great Leader took out the teleportation gun, opened a portal, and left Helheim, returning to London.

London had by then become a battlefield. The human army crumbled at the first sign of trouble, completely unable to stop the Dark Elves' rampage, much like how they couldn't stop Hitler's army during World War II. Only after the CCP forces launched a counterattack and followed the tide did they achieve any semblance of success.

But the secret Avengers Squad that could save them remained inactive, only taking action after the casualties had reached a certain level—only when the slap in the face did the stubborn Scots learn to dodge.

After the Great Leader returned, the Hell Ambassador, who had been in standby mode, quickly revived and immediately flew into the air. "Magnetic Field Rotation, Imperial Jellyfish Fist!"

Driven by the force of the punch, the soil in the area cleared by the Dark Elves formed several waving tentacles. One of them reached out and coiled around a Dark Elves like a python, then slowly tightened, strangling them to death. Only Malekith, the leader of the Dark Elves, lasted a little longer, but he could not escape the fate of becoming the last Dark Elves to survive. Then, the Dark Elves, an endangered species, disappeared from this world.

Without the Aether, Malekith, though powerful, was only limited in strength; without the Aether as his support, he was useless. Without the dark matter synthesized from the Aether, the Kurse could knock Thor's Thor's Hammer away with a single punch and hang Thor from his arm did not appear, and the previously rampaging Dark Elves were completely wiped out like bugs being crushed.

But the Hell Ambassador did not stop there. The magnetic field rotated in his fist, and after capturing the frequency of the ground beneath his feet, he threw a punch. Just like being directly hit by a space-based kinetic weapon in a movie, the powerful energy was converted into kinetic energy and spread out. The ground formed waves like the sea, spreading out from the Hell Ambassador and overturning all the buildings.

Wei Xiuming could shatter a star with a single punch, how much more so would the Hell Ambassador?

Four hours later, when Wei Xiuming, Nick Fury, and their companions emerged from the Nine Realms Gap, they found London reduced to ruins. Black Eggplant wondered if he had entered another world.

Or perhaps the flow of time in another dimension is not the same as on Earth. What they consider four hours may actually be decades or even centuries, during which human civilization has been destroyed by various disasters.

But the faint screams and the lingering smell of blood in the air told him that the disaster had just occurred.

Even though Hell Ambassador's punch was devastating, humanity is a fragile yet resilient species, and some people still survived the disaster, such as those who were in the open spaces between buildings when the sky and earth collapsed. Although the proportion was small, there were still some.

Black Eggplant took out his phone. Although the communication base stations in and around London didn't need to be destroyed and burned by the citizens because they had all been rendered ineffective in the disaster, S.H.I.E.L.D..'s technology didn't rely on these ground-based facilities. He contacted Agent Shilvert, the commander of the Secret Avengers Squad.

With the help of the Secret Avengers, a group of enhanced cyborgs, the bald Indian agent escaped the man-made earthquake unharmed, taking with him some valuables—such as parts of the Dark Elves mothership damaged by the Hell Ambassador, and most of the Dark Elves corpses.

The other part was taken away by Hydra.

Nick Fury, unaware of the inside story, highly praised Shilvert's work, saying that his command was exactly what Black Eggplant wanted. He believed that disaster relief was the work of heroes, the work of the Avengers, and that his secret Avengers were only good at doing the dirty work, and that the casualties of the English people were none of their business.

If it weren't for an internal transfer that made Shilvert a direct subordinate of Alexander Pierce, he would have become one of his two commanders alongside Coulson —although Nick Fury had begun to distance himself from the bald man after gaining some intelligence.

The prisoners in the Raft were unaware of what was happening in London, and Tony Stark was still busy building his weapons, having worn out countless keyboards in the process.

"If you're here to visit me, I'm doing very well. If you feel bad about it, you could bring me some good coffee beans." Tony Stark glanced up at Nick Fury, then continued looking at the monitor while his hands worked tirelessly. "If S.H.I.E.L.D.. is short on funds, you could pass on a message to Pepper Potts; she knows what kind of coffee beans I like."

When working late into the night, strong tea, coffee, or energy drinks are essential. Tony Stark likes coffee, but instant and canned coffee don't suit his taste, so he has a coffee machine in his cell. However, the coffee beans are of such low quality that he can only drink them with a frown when he's working late.

Nick Fury must have had a purpose in coming to see him, and this was the perfect opportunity to make his demands.

As for the possibility of dying suddenly from working late into the night, Tony Stark didn't care. He had always been in excellent health, and his time in prison had forced him to give up smoking and drinking, making the probability of non-cardiac sudden death extremely low. As for cardiac sudden death, he was even less worried, as his beating artificial heart could continue to work for another fifty years without any problems.

"I brought a gift."

To monitor the prisoners, the prison doors were made of bulletproof glass made of special materials, and Nick Fury carried something that he had been carrying on his back in front of him.

It was a biological culture device, a transparent cylindrical device filled with a biological culture medium. Immersed in the biological culture medium was a heart. Several thin cables connected the heart to the biological culture device. Under the stimulation of electric current, the heart beat vigorously as if it were inside its owner's body.

"You mean, because I don't have a human heart, that's why I created Ultron, this AI that threatens humanity?" Tony Stark wasn't clear about Nick Fury's purpose, but his long hours of working late into the night had left him with a nervous breakdown, and he was always trying to tell lame jokes, whether intentionally or unintentionally.

He touched his chest, feeling its beating. "I'm very satisfied with my current heart. At least unless there's a mechanical failure, I won't die from heart disease."

"No, this is your heart." Wei Xiuming stepped out from the corner and said, "Your original heart was broken, but the cells still retained their activity. I extracted a part of it and replicated it using cloning technology. It took several years for it to mature to the size of an adult."

"This is your release gift. If you'd like, I'll arrange surgery immediately to replace that artificial heart."

"What's going on outside that requires a genius criminal who's an anti-human to handle this?" Tony Stark glanced at the time—1:20 AM—stopped working, rubbed his aching wrists, and asked.
