Huang Wen hadn't anticipated suddenly entering a state of seclusion, or rather, enlightenment. Moreover, this enlightenment was even more significant than his earlier understanding of the Sword Law of the Sword Saint Dugu Jian.
Therefore, the duration of this enlightenment was something Huang Wen hadn't expected at all. He remained seated at the Wing Chun Martial Arts Academy for a full month.
The passage of so much time had greatly worried Belle. Seeing that Huang Wen hadn't woken up for two days, Belle couldn't bear it any longer and removed the telekinetic barrier she had created, allowing Silly Girl and Tony Stark to examine Huang Wen's condition using technological means.
"Damn!" Tony Stark couldn't help but curse after scanning Huang Wen's body with a tool. "How can he have such powerful physical attributes? As strong as an ox... No, an ox would be as weak as an ant compared to him. Apparently, even Hulk's physical attributes aren't this terrifying, are they?"
Bruce Banner frowned at Tony Stark and asked, "Do you have any data on Hulk's physical characteristics?"
"Ahem, I happened to record Hulk the time I saw him before." Tony Stark coughed awkwardly twice, then quickly changed the subject and looked at Belle. "Don't worry, this guy is perfectly fine. His physical condition is excellent, and he's even showing a slight tendency to get stronger. As you said, he should be in isolation!"
"You're right. The boss's inner strength is constantly increasing. He needs to overcome some kind of bottleneck. Miss Belle, you don't need to worry, just wait for the boss to wake up," added the Silly Girl at the same time.
"Really? Then I'm relieved." Belle finally breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this. However, seeing Huang Wen still in seclusion, Belle didn't dare leave.
Meanwhile, Nick Fury and Captain Marvel Carol were at a SHIELD base. Captain Marvel Carol couldn't help but frown as she watched Nick Fury's men load boxes full of supplies onto a spaceship.
"Are you really taking that many things? Honestly, even though I haven't seen some of these things, the power they contain isn't particularly strong. In the universe, they're not even worth mentioning..." Captain Marvel Carol paused for a moment before speaking.
"I think if they stay on Earth, they'll eventually be discovered by others. After all, I don't have enough manpower to keep an eye on them anymore, and I can't guarantee that those watching them won't have ulterior motives when I'm not on Earth!" Nick Fury sighed softly. "These things are still a little too dangerous for Earth."
"With Huang Wen and the Avengers around, these things aren't dangerous at all!" Captain Marvel's Carol shook her head and smiled, "You only see them as dangerous because you can't feel the power within them. But if you want them, go ahead..."
"They're here!" Nick Fury's eyes gleamed as he looked toward the base's open gate. Black Widow personally drove the truck inside.
"Hmm? This? You're taking this to space too?" Captain Marvel's Carol asked, her expression suddenly serious as she looked in the direction of the truck.
"Yes, we've studied this Cosmic Cube for years without success, but what we can confirm is that the Cosmic Cube contains infinite power. For the world, that's the most dangerous thing!" said Nick Fury, with an equally serious expression.
"Placing it in the universe would be even more dangerous." Captain Marvel Carol paused for a moment, then looked at Nick Fury and said, "You may not know the importance of the Cosmic Cube in the universe. Taking it with you would cause too many problems, and it nominally belongs to the gods of Asgard and cannot leave the Nine Realms. It's better to leave it on Earth, because Earth is a distant place in the universe and very few people can discover it..."
"The gods of Asgard? The Nine Realms?" Nick Fury blinked, not quite understanding what Captain Marvel was saying. He was about to leave for space, so why was he still hearing about myths?
"The Asgardian High Father has always been powerful. I recently felt his power. This is the most suitable place to hide the Cosmic Cube, due to Earth's remoteness and backwardness. As for the Asgardian gods, you don't need to worry too much, because after leaving Earth, we will depart directly for the Nine Realms..." Captain Marvel Carol explained softly, nodding her head.
"But if the Cosmic Cube stays on Earth, no one can protect it. If something so important falls into the wrong hands..." Nick Fury said, frowning anxiously.
"Wait, Cosmic Cube, energy, energy problems..." Captain Marvel Carol suddenly remembered something and smiled involuntarily. "I already know where this Cosmic Cube could be placed in a safer location. Coincidentally, Earth also needs it to protect its safety."
"You're not talking about Huang Wen, are you?" Nick Fury's mouth twitched. Even though he was leaving Earth, his impression of Huang Wen hadn't changed at all. To him, Huang Wen was a charlatan who could manipulate people's hearts. Whether it was uncontrollable people like Logan or arrogant individuals like Tony Stark, they all fell under Huang Wen's spell. Now, even the powerful Captain Marvel Carol seemed to be constantly thinking about Huang Wen.
"Believe me, I've met many people in the universe. While her power isn't at its absolute peak, it's enough to handle most situations on Earth." Captain Marvel Carol smiled, nodded, and said softly, "And most importantly, even though she seems a bit free-spirited and doesn't want to get involved in anything, she will still get involved when it comes to the things and people she cares about. After all, she lives on Earth, so she won't let the world she lives on be destroyed."
"Now that you've said all that, what more can I say?" Nick Fury sighed helplessly and whispered, "I hope you haven't misjudged him, and I also hope this man isn't ambitious..."
"Don't worry, Nick, you need to think longer term. Besides, didn't I leave my contact information with Coulson? If anything really happens, I can always get back to you!" Captain Marvel Carol waved her hand, took the container holding the Cosmic Cube from Black Widow, and said with a smile, "Everyone wait here for a moment, I'll deliver this to Huang Wen..."
