The Moon, Near-Earth Blue Area.
A colossal city, hidden within a massive meteorite crater, stands silently on the lunar surface.
This place was originally an alien relic left behind by the ancient Kree Empire, but it has now been inherited, modified, and used by the Inhumans to live there for generations.
The entire megacity is shrouded in a giant energy barrier, and an entire artificial atmosphere has been built inside, possessing an air pressure and gravity environment suitable for human survival.
This is Attilan, the sacred land of the Inhumans.
The Inhumans are Mutant created by the ancient Kree through genetic modification.
After the Kree abandoned Earth and evacuated, they left behind these cyborgs.
For thousands of years, the Inhumans have suffered discrimination, exclusion, and persecution from humans on Earth. Left with no other choice, they migrated to the moon and became completely isolated from the world.
At this moment, inside the main hall of the Attilan palace.
All the high-ranking members of the royal family were gathered together, and the atmosphere was heavy and oppressive.
" Maximus! You ordered an attack on humanity without authorization. Do you intend to utterly destroy Attilan and trigger a full-scale war?!"
Medusa, as the Queen of the Inhumans and wife of Black Bolt, was now filled with rage, fiercely rebuking her brother-in-law.
This unprovoked attack on the human lunar exploration fleet was orchestrated by Maximus on his own initiative.
"Humans have already begun landing on the moon and claiming territory; sooner or later they will discover Attilan! Given humanity's greedy nature, they will never tolerate the peaceful survival of our alien race!"
Maximus showed no remorse, instead wearing an expression of utter self-righteousness.
"So you took it upon yourself to strike first and start the war?!"
Black Bolt's face was ashen, and he gestured rapidly with his hands in sign language, his expression filled with rage.
"That's right! With the strength of Attilan, we have absolutely no need to fear the insignificant humans of Earth!"
Maximus remained calm and fearless.
"Are you unaware that humanity on Earth is now teeming with powerful individuals and formidable fighting strength? Are you trying to drag the entire Attilan down with you with your reckless actions?!"
Medusa glared angrily at Maximus, her heart filled with grief and indignation.
Their meager fighting strength is not worth mentioning!
Maximus surveyed the assembled royals with unwavering confidence and continued to plead his case in a loud voice.
"If my brother were to utter a single roar, all of humanity on Earth would be instantly annihilated. What is there to fear!"
" Attilan's resources have long been depleted, its civilization has stagnated for millennia, its population has continued to decline, and the ancient facilities left by the Kree have aged and deteriorated year by year; we are no longer able to repair and sustain them!"
"Why not take this opportunity to fully demonstrate our invincible fighting power that crushes the world! Even if we can't wipe out humanity on Earth, we can still conquer fertile land and create a new home for Attilan!"
Maximus's passionate speech instantly swayed most of the royal elders present.
Everyone was deeply moved.
The Attilan civilization had stagnated for a millennium, its resources were depleted, its infrastructure was aging, and its population had plummeted, bringing it to the Extremis.
Everyone longed to find a new place to live.
Many of the royal family's high-ranking officials wavered and secretly agreed with Maximus's idea.
Upon seeing this, Black Bolt was filled with rage.
He even had the urge to roar and annihilate these short-sighted people.
However, due to his calm and kind nature, this murderous intent only flashed through his mind for a moment.
Ultimately, Black Bolt overruled the objections and forcefully ordered Maximus to be imprisoned and confined in the Hall of Confinement.
He then planned to personally travel to Earth to negotiate, accompanied by Lockjaw, a large dog capable of teleportation.
"BOOM!!!"
Suddenly, a deafening roar exploded in the sky above Attilan!
The entire floating megacity trembled violently and swayed slightly.
Hundreds of thousands of Inhumans looked up in unison, staring in terror at the energy shield outside the city.
Outside the protective shield, a woman surrounded by dazzling golden light stood suspended in mid-air.
That loud bang just now was caused by her punch hitting Attilan's defensive barrier!
"Not good!"
The royal scientist screamed in terror.
" Attilan's core energy has plummeted! One more blow and our defensive barrier will crumble completely!"
Upon hearing this, the hearts of all the royal family members present sank instantly.
"It's that woman from Earth!"
The group of people stared in horror at the woman outside, who was glowing all over!
Unexpectedly, this woman actually found Attilan and launched an attack on them!
Without further hesitation, Black Bolt quickly donned his specially made spacesuit, and in a flash, flew out of the giant city of Attilan.
" Crystal, get your Lockjaw and head to provide immediate support!"
Medusa immediately turned to her sister beside her and gave her instructions.
Crystal nodded emphatically, her expression solemn.
She raised her hand and activated her power, forming a stable wind elemental shield around her. Carrying the giant dog Lockjaw, she followed closely behind Black Bolt and rushed out of Attilan!
Crystal is Medusa's youngest sister and a princess of the Attilan royal family.
She possesses exceptional talent, capable of controlling the four fundamental elements of wind, fire, water, and earth, and has immense potential.
Not long after, Black Bolt and Crystal flew out of Attilan one after the other, standing in mid-air facing Carol.
"I see traces of the Kree Empire technology. Who are you people?"
Carol looked down at the floating megacity below, observing the numerous buildings and technological systems within, which clearly bore the characteristics of the Kree Civilization, and questioned them.
Upon hearing this, Black Bolt responded with rapid hand gestures in sign language.
"Can't speak? Is he mute?"
Carol frowned slightly, a look of confusion on her face.
"You're the one who's mute! He's the king of Attilan; the sound waves from his mouth alone could kill you!"
Crystal was young and impulsive. Seeing the woman in front of her looking down on her brother-in-law with arrogance, she immediately felt dissatisfied.
She raised her hand to manipulate the wind element, delivering the clear sound precisely into Carol's ears.
"Oh, really?"
Carol laughed in exasperation, her energy slightly agitated, and she was about to raise her hand to strike.
Just then, Black Bolt turned and glared at Crystal, stopping her from acting impulsively.
He then looked at Carol, bowed slightly, and showed a hint of apology.
The next moment, he turned to look at the distant, empty lunar mountains, his lips parted slightly, and he whispered two words: "Sorry."
In an instant, an extremely terrifying and destructive sound wave burst forth, heading straight for the mountain range.
Boom!
The entire thousand-meter-high mountain was instantly shattered by the sound waves and completely collapsed Oblivion!
"Such impressive ability!"
Carol's gaze suddenly sharpened, her heart filled with shock.
This person's sonic attacks are not limited by a vacuum environment and possess such terrifying destructive power!
In terms of destructive power alone, it was in no way inferior to her own, and she could clearly sense that the opponent had not unleashed its full power at all!
At that moment, she felt a sense of apprehension, but also the idea of forming an alliance began to take root in her heart.
If we could form an alliance with such a powerful figure, we could create a balance of power and completely suppress Xu Wenwu, who is at the Ten Rings!
Black Bolt noticed the increased seriousness and apprehension in Carol's eyes, and felt a slight sense of satisfaction.
He then continued using sign language, which Crystal translated for him, and officially began communicating with Carol.
After hearing about the origins and millennia-long ordeal of the Inhumans, Carol felt a pang of sympathy and offered to set aside an area in the United States for the Inhumans to establish a new habitat in Attilan.
However, the prerequisite is that the Inhumans must submit to United States.
Black Bolt refused without hesitation.
He stated his purpose, explaining that he intended to travel to Earth personally for formal negotiations.
"Alright then, I'll be waiting for you on Earth."
Carol didn't try to persuade him any further. As soon as she finished speaking, she transformed into a dazzling stream of light and headed straight for Earth.
