Chapter 058 There Is No Reason To Reject The Rough Stone Delivered To Your Door!

To put it bluntly, the Tesseract is a rough space stone.

Since the six Infinity Stones in the Marvel Universe are incredibly powerful—so powerful that ordinary people cannot directly handle their power—each stone typically has a "container" to hold it.

The Tesseract is the container that holds the original Space Stone.

In fact, the Tesseract has been on Earth for over ninety years and is currently in the custody of S.H.I.E.L.D.

However, it hasn't been very active during this time. Simply put, it's in an "inactive" state.

Just now, Luo Bai suddenly felt that the Tesseract was emitting powerful energy, which could only mean that S.H.I.E.L.D. is studying it.

This isn't surprising.

After all, Nick Fury, the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., has always wanted to "master" all the super abilities on Earth, seeking powerful weapons.

The weapons available on Earth can no longer satisfy his desires, so he wants to absorb energy from the universe.

The Tesseract is the perfect object for this purpose.

The Space Stone inside is immensely powerful. If he can absorb energy from it, he can develop advanced weapons.

Nick Fury likely believes he can fulfill his ambitions and goals this way.

But in Luo Bai's opinion, it is foolish for him to do so.

Nick Fury cannot control the Tesseract at all; he doesn't even fully understand what it is before he begins his research.

If the original stone within the Tesseract becomes unstable, will he be able to pay for his actions?

This isn't just an unfounded worry for Luo Bai.

Based on the original plot:

Due to S.H.I.E.L.D.'s ongoing research on the Tesseract, the original stones inside it continue to stimulate spatial fluctuations.

As a result, Loki, holding the Mind Scepter, could easily detect the specific direction and location of the Tesseract.

Instigated by Thanos, Loki came to Earth with the Scepter.

In the end, this led to an alien invasion, triggering the "Battle of New York."

Now that S.H.I.E.L.D. is researching the Tesseract, it is undoubtedly sending a signal to Loki and Thanos.

Luo Bai just looked into the future using the Time Stone and found that Loki would arrive on Earth in three days.

This made him frown.

Seeing his serious expression, Stark couldn't help but feel anxious.

"Robin, what happened?" Stark asked.

Withdrawing from his magic, Luo Bai briefly explained the situation.

Since it involved many terms Stark had never heard of before, he felt a bit confused after listening.

"I'm sorry, Luo Bai, I didn't fully understand what you just said. You said S.H.I.E.L.D. is studying the Tesseract and wants to absorb energy from it to create weapons. Can you explain what the Tesseract is?" Stark asked.

"You can think of it as a powerful weapon from the universe. Human technology cannot fully comprehend its power, let alone control it," Luo Bai explained.

Now Stark understood.

Once he grasped the situation, Stark was furious. "So Nick Fury is studying a cosmic energy that even he can't control? Damn Nick Fury! What is he doing every day? Why does he always have to research such dangerous things?!"

At that moment, he clearly did not realize the seriousness of the problem, so Luo Bai had to remind him: "This isn't the key issue, Tony. The main concern is that his current actions could endanger the Earth.

If left unchecked, what will happen?"

"Creatures will invade the Earth," Luo Bai replied.

Extraterrestrial creatures?!

Hearing this, Stark couldn't take it anymore.

"Shet! Nick Fury told me that he created the Avengers to protect the Earth, but what is he doing?! We'll talk about the suit later. Lobai, let's go to S.H.I.E.L.D. right now! I have to beat him up!" Stark cursed.

He had a quick temper.

Knowing that Nick Fury was doing something dangerous, he flew to S.H.I.E.L.D. without hesitation.

But Luo Bai stopped him. "Don't be impulsive, Tony."

"What do you mean?" Stark said anxiously. "Luo Bai, we need to stop him quickly!"

Luo Bai shook his head. "It can't be stopped now. I can feel the spatial fluctuations released by the Tesseract, and powerful creatures in the universe can sense it too. The location of the Tesseract has already been exposed."

"Then we won't do anything?" Stark asked anxiously.

"Of course I care, but it's not yet time," Luo Bai replied.

Now that the location of the Tesseract is exposed, Loki will arrive with the Mind Scepter in three days to steal the Tesseract.

So why not wait until then to take action and seize both the cosmic magic and the Mind Scepter?

After all, the Mind Scepter Loki brings is embedded with the original Mind Stone.

He is essentially delivering the rough stone right to their door, so Luo Bai has no reason not to take advantage of this.

Instead of letting Thanos snatch it away and trigger a global catastrophe with a snap of his fingers, it's better to take them back and use them for himself.

With this thought, Luo Bai comforted Stark: "Tony, trust me. I will take action when the time is right."

Although Stark was anxious, he remembered that Luo Bai is a mage and that the Earth is protected by the Sorcerer Supreme.

He's starting to come around.

"If something happens to the Earth, the Sorcerer Supreme will help, right?" Stark asked.

Before Luo Bai could answer, he continued: "We're friends, so I won't hide it from you. My abilities are limited, and I'm not sure whether I can defeat creatures from outside Earth. You're already so strong; if the Sorcerer Supreme can take action, I will feel much more at ease."

Luo Bai understood Stark's worries.

To reassure him, Luo Bai said, "Of course. The Sorcerer Supreme is already aware of this."

"That's good." Stark breathed a sigh of relief, though he still seemed a bit worried.

After a moment of silence, he asked, "Do you need me to do anything? As long as it ensures the safety of the Earth, I'll do whatever you want."

Luo Bai thought for a moment and then replied, "Actually, yes."

"What is it?" Stark asked.

"If S.H.I.E.L.D. contacts you, please remember to call me immediately. Nick Fury's actions have seriously endangered the Earth, and he should be held accountable."

Stark was stunned.

It suddenly dawned on him.

"Mission: Impossible? Okay, I've seen similar movies. I never thought I'd be a spy one day, but I'm very happy about it. Don't worry, if S.H.I.E.L.D. contacts me, I will definitely call you!" Stark said, casually giving an 'OK' gesture.

Luo Bai smiled and then changed the subject, asking, "By the way, you asked me to help you figure out how to upgrade the suit. Let's go to your villa and take a look."

...

Meanwhile, at the S.H.I.E.L.D. Building.

At this time, agents led by Coulson had sealed off the basement.

Dr. Selvig and a group of researchers were studying the Tesseract.

"The energy fluctuations have increased, Dr. Selvig!"

"Turn off the power now!"

"The power is off, but the Tesseract continues to radiate energy, Dr. Selvig!"

"Dr. Selvig, we've lost control of the Tesseract... it seems to have activated itself."

As the research deepened, Dr. Selvig and the researchers found themselves completely unable to control the Tesseract.

Sensing the seriousness of the situation, Coulson immediately called Nick Fury.
