American comics: Starting with Luke the Maker

Roman Dey had already communicated and contacted Queen Adora of Xandar, his home planet. After learning that Ms. Marvel had entered the void and that something unexpected might have happened, he was instructed to wait while new reinforcements were dispatched to assist.

Days passed, and the area was no longer solely occupied by Roman's Nova Corps. Various civilizations and groups of looters, hearing rumors, flocked to the area with complex motives.

Several small-scale skirmishes and conflicts had already occurred. If it weren't for the apprehension about the complex situation, some with old grudges might have started fighting on the spot.

But now, in the mixed and complicated circumstances, even the most ferocious looting groups maintained restraint. They didn't know if any unusual action might invite comprehensive suppression and extermination.

Some who belonged to the order and civilization camp would spontaneously band together in this complex situation, exchanging and sharing their intelligence to a limited extent, and forming a united alliance to advance and retreat together.

Guided by a sense of crisis, some chaotic forces unwilling to leave but not accepted by the civilized and orderly factions also spontaneously formed a certain degree of alliance.

As one of the forces of order and civilization, and the first to arrive, the Nova Corps naturally received numerous visits. While sharing intelligence, Roman also learned the latest rumors from other newcomers.

"This place is a treasure land? Has the rumor become so outrageous?" Roman Dey was somewhat amused, not expecting the rumor to become so exaggerated in such a short time.

"Isn't it?" A representative of a small civilization asked Roman in surprise.

"This is just a battlefield! Your instruments should be able to scan and analyze something. More detailed information is still unknown, but Ms. Marvel has already entered to investigate," Roman said truthfully. He didn't care whether others believed him.

"Then it seems the rumors are false. But those looters firmly believe in the treasure information." The representative of the civilization said helplessly. During this time, some bold individuals tried to break in and investigate, but apart from the one who came the earliest, those who dared to stick their necks out were met with unified attacks from the surrounding forces.

No one dared to enter first, but no one wanted to let others enter easily.

There were also organizations that firmly believed in the rumors, seeing so many forces gathered around, and believing this was a treasure land, wanting to drive away other forces and monopolize this unclaimed area. But after being taught a lesson by all parties combined, they quieted down.

The forces that came during this period were engaged in various consultations. The chaotic factions and the orderly factions engaged in fierce debates over the mining rights and ownership of this place. Regardless of whether this void was a treasure land or not, given the current situation, no one could give up and leave.

It was just that there was no more accurate information, so many forces were trying their best to restrain themselves and maintain a relatively stable situation. Once the information was confirmed, either they would leave one after another, or they would start a big fight on the spot, turning this place into a battlefield.

Many forces had already begun to discuss dispatching some people to investigate.

Whether it was dangerous or not?

At least the looting groups didn't care. They were already living on the edge.

"I think the investigation should be more cautious. Ms. Marvel hasn't come out yet," Roman suggested to the representatives of those forces who invited him. As the first civilization to arrive, the Nova Corps was also a well-known order corps in the universe, so the major forces and organizations maintained a certain respect for Roman, at least in the distribution of benefits, without Roman's participation, a share was automatically allocated to his home planet, Xandar.

Just as Roman was about to say something, the ship suddenly sounded an alarm.

"What happened?" Roman and the representatives around him rushed to the main console of the spaceship.

"The energy of the void has changed," the Nova Corps soldier responsible for monitoring the void said nervously. Roman and the others all looked at the virtual projection of the void on the porthole screen.

The void began to collapse, as if it was about to spit something out. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, a spear gradually seeped out of the void, followed by a hand gripping its end.

"It's Ms. Marvel! She's out!" Roman said in surprise, looking at the figure appearing in the void, constantly enlarging the image. Ms. Marvel, who came out, shone with majestic energy, glanced around, and flew straight to Roman's Nova Corps spaceship.

"Welcome back, Ms. Marvel," Roman turned around, watching Carol Danvers, transformed into a ball of light, fall from the ceiling and reveal her figure in mid-air.

"What happened here?" Carol raised her eyebrows slightly, looking at the representatives of the various forces surrounding her.

"The situation is a bit complicated," Roman rubbed his hands and smiled awkwardly.

"Madam, is the void a treasure land? Is it true?" A slightly anxious voice asked from the crowd. The crowd who heard the voice were silent for a moment, and then turned their attention to Carol, who had dissipated her energy and stood on the ground, wanting to get an answer from her. Even if the answer did not match what some people imagined, they would still have thoughts and doubts.

"Where did you get this information?" Carol's gaze crossed the crowd and fell on the person who spoke first, who had a strong looting style.

"That's what the rumors say. Some even say that a powerful gem with incredible power was left behind!" The looter who was stared at by Carol panicked, but secretly glanced around and tried to calm down.

"That's not wrong," Carol retracted her gaze and said softly.

The surrounding crowd was immediately shocked when they heard Carol's words, and their already focused spirits were raised again, staring at Carol intently, waiting for her follow-up.

"There are indeed many treasures and opportunities inside. It can indeed be called a treasure land. It connects to a very magical dimension. I have never seen such a special dimensional world. It is difficult for me to tell you what I encountered inside, but if you have some concepts of virtual worlds, then understand it by comparison," Carol said cautiously, without hiding anything.

Seeming to feel that she was not accurate enough, she raised the spear in her hand: "What is different from the virtual world is that you can bring out your gains from it. You only need to pay a little price."

"I seem to know this spear," someone in the crowd finally recognized the spear in Carol's hand, "That's Proxima Midnight's weapon from the Black Order."

Everyone's eyes instantly fell on the spear. The Black Order was well-known in the major civilizations and organizations of the universe. Some powerful civilizations and organizations would have heard of and collected information about the five people's abilities and weapons. Many people present knew that this spear was a powerful weapon comparable to a divine weapon.

"It is the trophy I brought out. Inside is a loop of time. During this loop of time, you can do anything inside and collect anything. When the time completes a cycle, you can choose to materialize what you have collected. Of course, this process consumes a lot of energy," Carol explained in detail.

"For example, the spear in my hand, I think if you want to materialize it, I am afraid that only the Nova Corps of Xandar can easily do it. After all, they have the Nova Force."

Most of the people present were only immersed in the gains Carol said, and quickly dismissed her later reminders from their minds. In their hearts, the void was already a rare treasure land. Especially those looting leaders, they were more eager for a powerful weapon than anyone else, which would rapidly expand their power and status!

Carol also saw this, and for a while, she had no more desire to speak. After those representatives left one after another, she and Roman, who was full of helplessness, looked at each other, speechless.

"Please understand, I don't want this either," Roman smiled helplessly. Before receiving orders from above, he couldn't drive away these forces, not to mention that reinforcements would take a little time to arrive.

"I can understand. But if they really think that place is a treasure land without danger, they will suffer," Carol said calmly.

"Is it very dangerous inside?" Roman asked tentatively.

"Of course," Carol glanced at him and asked, "How much do you know about the Infinity Stones?"

"Not much, I only know that they are treasures born from the universe, and each one has incredible power," Roman spread his hands, he had already said what he knew, and he didn't know more.

"I sensed at least three, or four, Infinity Stones' powers inside," Carol said softly: "Power, Space, Time, and a faint, I can't be sure, Mind power. Maybe there are others, but I can't sense them anymore."

Roman was shocked by the information Carol revealed. He stiffly turned his head to look in the direction of the void, his face full of disbelief.

"In short, the dimensional world in that void is very peculiar, and it seems to be constantly evolving. If you enter, remember not to use its loopholes, it may be a trap," Carol reminded.

"Trap?" Roman turned his head, he thought it was necessary to ask clearly about this important question.

"Yes, I suspect it has a consciousness, capturing the life or matter it wants. But it will follow certain rules. If you follow the rules, it can't do anything to you, but if you exploit its loopholes, then you will be assimilated by it and become part of its cycle. It will be difficult for you to leave there again. There will be an endless cycle of prison," Carol said solemnly.

She could abide by the rules and believed in her own strength, but she didn't have much hope for others who wanted to enter. Especially those looting groups, they were the most unruly group of people. If they discovered the so-called loopholes, they would mostly can't help but use it to get some benefits for themselves. They would indeed get corresponding benefits, at the cost of never being able to leave that world. Unless the void world devoured this universe, they might be completely liberated? But that time would be too long.

Even if this information was disclosed to those people in advance, not many would really listen and not have crooked ideas. They would still use various methods and various loopholes to fight wits with the world consciousness, to test the methods that could avoid punishment and gain certain benefits. This was the style of behavior determined by their greedy nature.

"The Nova Corps will remember and abide by it," Roman also nodded cautiously. If the upper levels decided to enter the void world, they would naturally keep Carol's reminder in mind.

"Here is a memory image of my experience in the cyclic world. It contains everything you want to know," Carol threw a ball of energy to Roman, "After reading it, you can decide on the follow-up plan. My suggestion is, for safety, leave here temporarily."

"Why?" Roman asked in confusion.

Carol raised the spear in her hand: "The Black Order is all inside, they came to collect an Infinity Stone. After the Black Order lost contact, Thanos will definitely come to investigate."

Roman took a deep breath, calmed his heart that was shaken by hearing that name, and then nodded heavily. He had decided to immediately, immediately, lead the team to evacuate here temporarily. Of course, he would also broadcast this important information to all the surrounding forces and organizations. As for the decision of whether the other party would leave or stay, he didn't care.

Even if he had to clash with Thanos, it would require a large number of Nova Corps to be dispatched. With only this small force here, and the reinforcements that had arrived, they might not be able to match Thanos.
