Perhaps Loki's words had moved her,
or perhaps the past six months had slowly worn away her hope bit by bit.
Alisha finally stopped objecting.
She remembered that although her boss had occasionally disappeared before, he had never vanished without a trace for this long.
A cold despair gradually devoured the last of her defenses.
She remained silent for a long time,
then finally nodded, almost imperceptibly.
In the end,
after discussing it, everyone decided to build a cenotaph for Su Ming
in a remote, magnificent, ancient valley somewhere in the Kunlun Mountains.
Wanda had suggested the location.
She said the "sister" who had guided her in mastering Chaos Magic in her dreams had recommended it,
saying the place carried an ancient aura that could soothe heroic spirits.
With the Avengers' technology and abilities,
construction in a primeval forest was no difficult matter.
Tony dispatched his most advanced automated engineering robot team to carry out the work.
However,
not long after construction began,
an accident occurred.
While excavating the foundation,
the robots inadvertently disturbed an ancient seal buried deep underground,
unearthing an ancient tomb that had been sealed away for untold ages!
Inside the tomb,
a statue-like existence clad in ancient, damaged armor and holding a long-handled weapon,
a military general with a majestic yet utterly ugly face,
suddenly "awoke"!
A terrifying gleam burst from his eyes.
With an angry roar, he swung his weapon,
smashing Tony's expensive engineering robots into a pile of scrap metal in just a few blows!
It was Zhen Chou.
He had loyally guarded his lord's burial ground,
and would tolerate no intrusion!
When the news returned, the Avengers immediately assembled and rushed to Kunlun.
When they arrived,
they saw the general Zhen Chou standing at the entrance to the tomb like a guardian deity.
