The Female Adam helped Captain Marvel lie down, then flew to her side, extending her hand and Staff, waving them incessantly.

Soon, a surge of spatial energy flowed from Captain Marvel's body and gathered in Female Adam's hand.

As the energy flowed out, Captain Marvel immediately showed a pained expression.

"Ah!"

After a low groan of pain, everyone immediately looked at Captain Marvel with worried expressions.

Are you alright?

"If it really doesn't work, let's take a break."

"Keep going, hang in there!"

Despite everyone's concern, Captain Marvel and Female Adam remained silent.

The former is unable to speak due to the pain of having their energy drained, while the latter is unable to concentrate because they are fully focused on having their energy drained.

In the end, Thanos couldn't stand it anymore and stopped everyone.

"Don't disturb them. They're currently working on condensing the gems. If they fail, there won't be another Captain Marvel."

Upon hearing this, the crowd reluctantly and slowly retreated.

A while later, dark clouds slowly appeared in the sky, covering the sun that had been shining brightly just moments before, and at the same time, a cold wind blew around.

The Black Widow felt the hairs on her body stand on end as the cold wind blew.

"Strange, why is it so cold in September?"

Before he could finish speaking, the dark clouds in the sky suddenly increased, shrouding the entire world in darkness.

It seemed as if the world had lost its light source, even darker than night, to the point where you couldn't see your hand in front of your face.

Iron Man immediately turned on the lights on his suit, and Thor's entire body crackled with Lightning.

However, these lights seemed to be shrouded in a layer of gray mist, appearing hazy and not bright enough at all.

At this moment, everyone sensed that something was wrong.

Even if it's raining or cloudy, the sky shouldn't get this dark at midday.

Nick immediately picked up the walkie-talkie and said, "Turn on all the lights in the building!"

But after a while, the lights in the S.H.I.E.L.D. Building still didn't turn on, so Nick couldn't help but pick up the walkie-talkie again and shout.

"What's going on? Didn't anyone turn on the lights?!"

This time, however, the walkie-talkie only emitted static, without a single reply.

"Damn it! What on earth happened?"

While Nick and the others were still busy with the lighting, an Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. on guard duty suddenly felt the floor beneath his feet become soft.

Strange? Why is the ground so soft?

Suddenly, a chill swept over him, and before the agent could react, he was pulled down and disappeared into the ground.

Because of the darkness, the other agents didn't even notice that one of their comrades was missing.

But after a while, as more and more people disappeared, everyone sensed that something was wrong.

Black Widow approached Nick and whispered, "It seems quite a few of our people have disappeared."

Nick's face immediately darkened, and he asked anxiously, "What's going on?"

Black Widow shook her head, glancing cautiously at Thanos not far away, and said, "I don't know, but that Aliens should know something."

Nick nodded, then immediately walked towards Thanos.

"Mr. Thanos, do you know what happened?"

Thanos had been resting with his eyes closed, immediately opened them upon hearing the question and looked down at Nick, who was barely up to his chest.

"This means that a Dimension Lords sensed the power of the Infinity Stones and sent his subordinates to test the waters. If I'm not mistaken, this time it should be the Eye-Monger."

Like Chthon, the Eye-Monger was a powerful being born from the absorption of the Chaos Power.

However, unlike Eye-Monger, Chthon Beholder did not cling to the Chaos Dimension. After realizing that he could not rule the Chaos Dimension, he ruled another dimension and called himself the ruler of the Old Ones. The dimension he ruled was also renamed the Old Ones Dimension.

The Old Ones Dimension is a collection of all the bizarre and indescribable things, and like all Dimension Lords, the Eye-Monger has begun to frantically devour other universes.

Among all Dimension Lords, the Eye-Monger is even comparable to Dormammu, belonging to the top tier.

And now, the Eye-Monger has also set its sights on this universe.

As the two spoke, more and more Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. disappeared from their surroundings, and Iron Man and Thor anxiously searched for the enemy.

However, this time the enemy seemed to exist without a trace; they couldn't be found at all.

To this end, Thor even picked up Mjolnir and slammed it into the ground, while Iron Man launched a laser attack on the ground.

But no matter how hard they fought, all they saw was dust and a cratered ground. They didn't see a single enemy, nor did they find a missing agent, or even a corpse.

At this moment, Black Widow also arrived beside Thanos and asked, "What the hell is the Eye-Monger?"

Upon hearing this, Thanos turned and stared intently at Black Widow.

"The Eye-Monger claims to Ruler of the Old Ones, skilled in all sorts of bizarre arts, and also has a nickname: the Ineffable Being."

This woman is truly courageous; she actually dared to call a Dimension Lords a ghost in front of him.

Since the Eye-Monger has already taken notice of this place, it is fully aware of everyone's every move.

Thinking of this, he took a slight step back.

It wasn't that he was afraid of the Eye-Monger; he just didn't want to waste his energy on something so pointless.

Sure enough, the next second, a black mist suddenly appeared beneath Black Widow's feet, and then a black ghostly hand emerged.

In an instant, Black Widow was dragged to the ground by the ghostly hand and vanished without a trace, as if the other party had never been there.

Thanos suddenly shook his head, feeling a pang of regret.

According to his mental scan, this Black Widow seemed to be a younger Black Widow of herself, without any organs removed or promiscuity.

As for why he knew, it was of course because of his mental power.

Black Widow is not Captain Marvel or Female Adam; she has no way to withstand his mental scan.

So, whether the other person is dressed or not makes no difference in front of him; he can even tell how many hairs are on their body and whether they are pink or black.

With a loud "bang!"

The walkie-talkie fell from Nick's hand.

In the dim light from Iron Man, Thor, and the others, he had just witnessed Black Widow disappear right before his eyes.

"Natasha! Natasha!"

He quickly threw himself to the ground and began digging at the earth with his hands, as if trying to dig the Black Widow out.

But the ground at that moment was just ordinary marble, something he, Ordinary Person, hadn't dug out himself.

"How could this be? How could this happen?"

As the head of the intelligence agency, his mental fortitude was undoubtedly exceptional.

However, the reason he behaved so poorly was because this bizarre method was beyond his comprehension.

A moment later, Nick Fury looked up at Thanos not far away and said reproachfully, "Why didn't you save her? Why?"
