" Coulson, he calls himself Loki? Could he be the brother of Thor you mentioned before?"
Tony turned to look at Coulson, and a memory flashed through his mind. When he went to State of New Mexico to rescue Coulson, Coulson had told him in detail about the feud between Thor and Loki.
"That's right, it's most likely him."
Coulson nodded solemnly, his face tense.
" Loki is inherently wicked and cunning, and he turned against the Thor brothers, making him a true evil god. Now that he has suddenly taken the Tesseract, his motives are unclear, and the consequences will undoubtedly be dire."
Wenwu shook his head slightly and chuckled, "Heh, it seems our strongest trump card is completely gone. Now, detonating the surfboard is our only chance to turn the tide."
He remained calm, showing no sign of anxiety over the loss of the Tesseract. Loki would show himself sooner or later; there was no need to rush.
"But the problem is, how do we get the bomb into Galactus's mouth?"
Reed frowned, his face full of worry, and said in a heavy tone, "Once he has taken precautions, we will have no chance at all."
"Give it a try; anything is possible with human effort."
Wenwu remained calm and gently reassured the crowd.
"For now, this is the only option."
Reed sighed helplessly.
"Okay! It's settled then!"
Tony's eyes were resolute as he immediately made the decision, "Use the surfboard as the core, modify it into a super bomb, and detonate it at close range to severely damage Galactus!"
After the decision was finalized, Wenwu, Tony, Reed, Banner, Beast Hank, a total of five people, immediately devoted themselves to the task and worked tirelessly through the night to produce the detonating device.
Although Wenwu now possesses an overclocked brain and exceptional intelligence, his scientific research talent is at best on par with Banner, and he is nowhere near the level of top scientific geniuses like Tony and Reed, who have endless inspiration and abnormal talent.
The reason he has been able to produce so many top-notch research results in the past two years is because he has iterated and upgraded existing basic theories. If he were to start from scratch and develop independently, he would certainly not be as good as Tony and Reed.
However, with his overclocked brain and a vast amount of knowledge that far surpasses the combined knowledge of the other three, he was able to keep up with Tony and Reed.
During this time, Wenwu also found an opportunity to secretly use " Soul Peering " on the Silver Surfer.
Even without his surfboard, the Silver Surfer's mental strength far surpasses that of an ordinary human. Stealing his memories silently while he is conscious is virtually impossible.
Wenwu simply used mental hypnosis to put the Silver Surfer into a deep sleep, and then opened his Soul Peering without any hindrance, quickly flipping through his memories.
The Silver Surfer has lived for thousands of years, and his soul memories are as vast as the sea. A massive amount of information flooded into his mind, instantly draining most of Wenwu mental energy, causing extremely terrifying consumption.
Wenwu had no choice but to selectively retrieve memories that were useful to him.
After a long while, Wenwu suddenly opened his tightly closed eyes, exhaled a long breath, and a strong look of joy flashed in his eyes.
Although the expenditure was enormous, the gains were also enormous!
He also thoroughly investigated the Silver Surfer's entire background.
The Silver Surfer hails from the Zenn-La Civilization.
The physical appearance of this civilization's inhabitants is highly similar to that of humans. The silver body that now gleams with a metallic sheen is not their true form, but rather a metallic shell formed by condensing Cosmic Energy from a surfboard, essentially a suit of armor.
The Zenn-La Civilization, located within the Milky Way, is a supreme Utopia civilization that values peace and possesses highly advanced technology.
Their overall technological level far surpasses that of Earth, comparable to the Kree Empire. They are not only capable of terraforming planets and conducting ultra-long-distance interstellar travel, but also possess devastating weapon technology capable of shaking planetary orbits.
Unfortunately, the entire civilization is inherently peace-loving, so it abandoned military expansion, possessing top-notch technology but lacking the matching combat power to protect itself.
Faced with a cosmic catastrophe like Galactus, even the most advanced technology is powerless to resist.
When Galactus descended upon his home planet, Norrin Ryder had no choice but to sacrifice his freedom and willingly become Herald of Galactus in order to protect his entire race and his beloved.
Wenwu savored the vast amount of interstellar knowledge in his mind, his eyes shining.
Although the Silver Surfer's memories do not contain complete finished technologies or blueprints, and the technological system is completely different from Earth's, the fundamental theories contained within are of immeasurable value.
This fundamental knowledge from advanced interstellar civilizations completely overwhelms Earth's existing technological system.
Even if we cannot completely replicate the top technology of the Zenn-La Civilization, as long as we thoroughly understand these basic theories, we can drive the Ten Rings technology to achieve a leapfrog development.
This is his true purpose in getting involved in the Galactus crisis.
As for joining forces to fight Galactus, that was just a side effect.
There are already powerful figures backing up the Earth; it's not his place to risk his life.
If the Ancient One is held back, and things get really bad, the Eternals won't just stand by and watch Earth perish.
The Eternals have protected Earth for generations, secretly ensuring its population so that the young Celestial from the Earth's Emergence have sufficient nutrition. Therefore, they will never allow Galactus to destroy the planet that gave birth to the Celestial.
If things truly reach Extremis, and neither the Ancient One nor the Eternals can turn the tide, then he has no choice but to lead his people to evacuate and flee for their lives.
Thinking about this, Wenwu secretly pondered to himself.
Nick Fury, that one-eyed, dark-skinned guy, has most likely already secretly contacted Auntie Marvel.
If Auntie Marvel arrives, the difficulty of seizing the Infinity Stones will increase dramatically.
He is very self-aware.
With his current strength, he can bully people like Tony, Banner, and Reed, but he's no match for Auntie Marvel at her peak.
At most, he could barely fight back with his Ten Rings power and metal superpowers, and that was all.
Two days passed in the blink of an eye.
After acquiring the Silver Surfer's technological knowledge, Wenwu took a dominant role in the research and development of the detonation device!
Even Tony and Reed, the brains of the world, secretly admired and feared him!
At the last moment before the arrival of the Galactus, under the leadership of Wenwu, the detonation device was finally successfully developed.
Not long after the device was completed, the Silver Surfer, who had been silent all along, suddenly opened his eyes and said in a hurried voice:
"He's here! The Galactus has entered the Solar System system!"
He is deeply bound to Galactus and can accurately sense the other's location.
"Lock onto the target immediately and prepare to launch!"
Fury immediately gave the order in a deep voice.
"Your homemade thrusters are too slow."
Wenwu shook his head and interrupted, "We can't let the Galactus get too close to Earth. We'll take my fighter jet directly into deep space to carry out the detonation!"
"Are our thrusters too slow?"
Tony frowned, a look of skepticism on his face. Seeing Wenwu's confident demeanor, which didn't seem like he was bragging, he couldn't help but ask, "How fast can your fighter jet be?"
Wenwu's lips curled into a slight smile, tinged with a hint of mockery. "Sustained steady-state acceleration within the atmosphere, cruising at Mach 10—can your Rocket boosters achieve that?"
"What?!"
Tony's pupils constricted instantly, and he exclaimed in shock, "Mach 10 continuously within the atmosphere? Are you sure you're not kidding?!"
Everyone present was utterly shocked.
The fastest fighter jets on Earth currently have a top speed of less than Mach 3 and cannot maintain that speed for an extended period.
Sustained flight speeds of Mach 10 place terrifyingly high demands on engines, materials, and energy.
The Ten Rings have actually mastered this technology!
Fury's brows furrowed deeply, his heart filled with apprehension and uncertainty.
The speed of technological progress in the Ten Rings was too outrageous. He even suspected that they had actually obtained alien technology, otherwise how could they develop so quickly, as if they were not on the same level as the Ten Rings?
