"The second project, and the core one." Homelander's gaze sharpened.
"The Time Machine."
This was also Homelander's true reason for going to such lengths to create the Gulliver Tunnel.
Hope had always thought the Gulliver Tunnel was an entry and exit passage designed to open up the Quantum Realm.
But what she did not know was that this device was actually the prototype of the "Time Machine" led by Skynet.
As a super artificial intelligence that had once ruled the world, Skynet possessed a deep foundation in the theoretical technologies of temporal displacement and spacetime travel.
But in this Marvel Universe, the rules of time had subtle differences, so it still needed certain technologies from this world to fill the gaps.
"Sir, after integrating the Pym Particles formula, the computational model for the spacetime displacement equations has gained complete theoretical support."
Homelander had previously instructed Skynet that, in order to ensure the absolute safety of his own timeline, it had to master the technologies of time travel and timeline intervention.
After all, this universe contained organizations that freely toyed with time and could even arbitrarily prune timelines that did not suit them.
Homelander had no intention of letting the empire he had worked so hard to build be casually erased by those people like weeds.
"Understood, sir." Skynet turned and left, continuing the new research process.
Three weeks of research had left Homelander feeling a little irritated.
He needed to find somewhere to relax properly, perhaps have a glass of fresh 37°C milk with Jessica.
But at that moment, a peculiar audio wave suddenly reached his ears.
Deep in the mountains along the Nepal border.
A thin mist constantly hung over the valley, half-concealing the ancient village within it.
This village was called "Afterlife," the shelter of the Inhumans
