Chapter 1013: Chapter 805: Gathering_2
…
“An alien fleet has appeared near Jupiter!”
“The Asgard representative stationed on Earth confirms that they are Ziritans!”
“A highly aggressive and brutal race!”
Major newspapers have plastered the first image of the fleet’s emblem everywhere.
It’s a blurry photo with a starry sky as the background, where only so vague outlines can be discerned.
Roughly three motherships, accompanied by so scattered dots.
Only the motherships can barely be identified as spacecraft-like shapes, and their relatively tidy formation distinguished them from asteroid clusters.
Real alien spacecraft!
This bombshell spread across the entire internet in a flash.
What followed was frenzied discussions on how to respond.
Prepare for war, seek help from Asgard—suggestions and debates sward like a tidal wave.
Unlike the surprise attack in the New York war,
This ti, the Zirita fleet was discovered ahead of ti, and everyone knew about it. The implications were vastly different.
The New York battle was abrupt but ended swiftly.
Other than New York residents, by the ti news reached other regions, the battle was over. With no imdiate danger, people just marveled and watched from the sidelines.
This ti, the danger looms directly overhead, and it’s a whole different story.
Because the enemy possesses interstellar navigation abilities, their technological disparity with Earth exacerbates a collective sense of pessimism.
Surrender factions have even begun to erge…

“I beg you, the Supre Mage also has a duty to safeguard Earth’s safety, don’t they?”
Natasha, sweat glistening on her forehead, leaned against Tao Yu’s chest, panting slightly, speaking with a sense of urgency.
“Oh, I haven’t officially assud the role yet; I’m just acting as a substitute. The Supre Mage is injured and can’t co forward at the mont.”
Tao Yu replied with a lazy indifference.
He stepped out to relax and clear his mind; there was no need to overthink things.
“But when the situation calls for it, lending a helping hand isn’t entirely out of the question.”
Originally, Tao Yu was planning to take action, but now being asked to intervene made him enjoy the turn of events.
Upon hearing Tao Yu’s words, Natasha, despite being exhausted to the point of spasms, mustered up her spirit once again.
Let’s see how hard this queen works for it…
…
While Natasha was busy persuading Tao Yu, Nick Fury personally sought out Tony and began playing the emotional card about Howard Stark.
He even managed to successfully capture Winter Soldier Bucky once again…
“He was actually a childhood ally of Captain Arica, but I feared Steve might act irrationally due to emotional ties. Hence, we secretly arrested and executed him. Here’s the VCR—I think you can judge for yourself that it’s not fake.”
Nick Fury showed Tony Stark footage of Bucky’s execution.
The scene was decisively brutal.
The grueso imagery made Tony frown slightly.
“If I’d wanted him executed privately, he would’ve been long gone. Honestly, I wouldn’t need you for that. It’s only because of trust that I handed him over to you—and now, you’re using this as so sort of payoff?”
Tony retorted irritably.
The trust back then was enormous, only for it all to turn out like this—what a waste.
“Of course not. This was avenging Howard. This is related to you, which is why I inford you beforehand.”
Nick Fury transitioned smoothly, subsequently presenting another video. This ti, it showed an abandoned base with over twenty more Winter Soldier units preserved in cryogenic stasis inside.
Then Fury explained:
“While tracking Hydra remnants and Bucky, we discovered this deserted lab and unearthed these newly preserved, unactivated soldiers. I’ve already secured their control commands—they’ll soon beco assets against the Ziritans.”
“Ha, they’ve got motherships capable of orbital bombardnts—are you planning to win with soldiers on foot?”
“That’s exactly why I ca to you. Your Iron Armor units have already surpassed thirty models and can operate autonomously. I plan to assemble a team of Avengers, breach their mothership, and carry out a boarding combat operation for decapitation.”
Nick Fury laid out his plan, leaving Tony montarily stunned.
“They’re living in the interstellar age, and you want to fight them in close quarters?”
“If it works, isn’t that enough? Besides, look, we’ve got our own aces up our sleeves…”
Fury brought out footage of a Space Airship, indicating that his side wasn’t entirely powerless.
This was part of the Insight Initiative. After Hydra suffered massive losses, Fury had successfully inherited these assets.
“Your idea is…interesting, but will it just be our efforts alone?”
“We’d also need to enlist help from the Supre Mage, and there’s soone else we’ve located—a gamma radiation expert.”
Another video was revealed, showing Dr. Bruce Banner being found.
Since Natasha was exhausting all her resources to persuade Tao Yu, Banner was approached by ‘Mockingbird’ Barbara Morse—a skilled agent and Eagle Eye’s wife.
As a fellow agent sotis tasked with sensitive missions, Eagle Eye understood the necessity.
“What a freak parade we’ve got here.”
Tony ridiculed sarcastically but ultimately agreed.
“I have no objections. Who knows what kind of chaos their invasion will bring. At a ti like this, we have to use whatever resources we’ve got.”
“Of course, the UN is also forming a united Earth military coalition. They’re testing out all their long-range missiles for defense.”
Intercontinental missiles and rockets—many of these are already in place.
Previously, they were designed to strike ground targets while circling Earth’s orbit.
