The Nova Empire, Alien Freedom Square.
Under the intense sunlight, brighter and hotter than the sun itself, countless translucent, oval-shaped buildings stood tall, resembling a dense forest of peculiarly shaped Iron Man suits. The surfaces were contrasted with dazzling highlights, making the centrally located Freedom Square appear incredibly spacious.
On the open square, there were music fountains and various entertainment facilities, while security robots flew around patrolling the air, and cleaning robots busily roamed the ground. It was evident that the local advanced technological level was just the tip of the iceberg.
The square was bustling with people, mostly Xandarians, who were almost indistinguishable from humans in appearance, except for their feather-like head crests swaying elegantly in the breeze.
"Those are the main race inhabiting the Nova Empire civilization— Xandarians. They are a reptilian humanoid race evolved from avian descendants," Green, now fully assuming the role of a guide, explained humbly to Kyle, who led the group.
Kyle nodded, feeling a sense of wonder. Regardless of the race, the ultimate evolutionary trend seemed to be humanoid.
After all, this was the Marvel Universe.
As the local Xandarians passed by Kyle and the others, they glanced at them, then quickly averted their gazes as if nothing had happened.
Lorna, linking her arm with Kyle's, scanned the surroundings with a mixture of surprise and amazement. "How come they don't find it strange to see us outsiders?"
"Hehe, Miss Lorna, please look over there," Green said, pointing to the left.
Following Green's hint, Kyle and the others looked over and saw a group of extraterrestrial beings emerging from among the low Xandarian crowd. They were towering figures, over two meters tall, with rough, rocky skin, carrying giant clubs and hammers.
As they walked, even the ground trembled slightly, causing many Xandarians to reluctantly move aside.
"And over there," Green pointed to another location.
There were several diminutive beast-like creatures, not fully evolved into humanoid forms, with ears or tails, darting and playing among the crowd. The Xandarians seemed equally unfazed by this.
"How many extraterrestrial races are there here?" Lorna widened her eyes. She hadn't noticed before, but now that she looked closely, she saw not only the stone giants and beasts but also many other non-Xandarian extraterrestrial life forms strolling among them.
"Countless," Green chuckled. "The Nova Empire, as one of the three major extraterrestrial empires in the Milky Way Alliance, is not only inhabited by Xandarians but also a gathering place for countless extraterrestrial races, cultures, and worlds. So even outsiders can be accepted here without prejudice."
"Great national power, freedom, equality, advanced technology, supreme wisdom... This is indeed a great place," Kyle sighed softly.
Earth would likely take a long time to reach the level of the Nova Empire.
However, if extraterrestrial forces invaded Earth, if Wakanda implemented external development, and if the Asgardians resettled in the solar system, the civilization of Earth would undergo explosive and transformative evolution.
"Hey, where did Tony go?" Lorna looked around, suddenly realizing that Tony was missing, leaving only three people in the group, including her.
"When he got off the Spaceship, he said he wanted to learn about the technology of this planet and flew off in his battle suit. Anyway, we have translators and communicators. We'll contact him after gathering information here," Kyle said with a smile. The Starks, father and son, had the same temperament.
Back in Wakanda, Howard had also wandered off due to his obsession with advanced technology and ended up crashing into the Black Panther's challenge ceremony...
"Bang!"
Just then, a commotion occurred not far from Kyle and the others, it seemed that two life forms were in dispute, scaring many Xandarians who quickly avoided and fled, clearing a space.
"What's going on?" Lorna tiptoed, curiously looking over, but unfortunately, they were still some distance away and couldn't see clearly.
"Master, Miss Lorna, we'd better not interfere," Green, being experienced, quickly suggested. "Conflicts and disputes are common in the Nova Empire due to the diverse races, but they are mostly caused by new outsiders. Stirring up trouble in the Nova Empire can have very dire consequences."
"Then let's not bother and go find the intermediary," Kyle responded coldly. Just as they took a few steps, suddenly, from the direction of the dispute, a scream rang out, abruptly halting Kyle's steps.
"What's going on, Boss?" Lorna looked at Kyle in confusion.
"I seem to have heard this voice somewhere before," Kyle frowned, turning his gaze towards the crowded dispute area.
Could there be someone familiar in this distant Nova, on this faraway planet from Earth?
At this moment, within the disputed area, three stone giants formed a group, towering like three small mountains, coldly glaring down at the tiny figure surrounded by them.
The tiny figure appeared to be a hybrid of bear and mouse, just the size of two palms, lying on the ground trembling and shivering all over, whimpering, "I'm sorry, I'm really sorry, three stone men... big brothers."
It hugged its injured foot, and the oozing blood slowly stained its white fur red.
"You are trying to steal from us, huh? Had enough of living?" one of the stone giants sneered.
"I'm... just hungry..." The white bear explained weakly.
"Hungry? Speaking of hunger, I'm pretty hungry too," The stone giant licked its dry, rough lips as it looked at the white bear.
"If we don't teach it a lesson, it will think we three are easy prey!"
"Be gentle, don't turn it into minced meat, it's hard to deal with."
"I'll do it!"
The three stone giants clearly still treated this place as their home planet, disregarding the regulations of the Nova Empire.
After a cold-blooded discussion about hunting, one of the stone giants rolled up its sleeves and stepped forward, raising its giant club high in the air. Amidst the despairing expression of the white bear and the exclamations of the surrounding Xandarians, it swung the club down forcefully.
In the blink of an eye, a colorful streak of light swiftly shot across the scene, piercing straight into the space between the stone giant and the white bear!
Fast!
The speed of light was too fast!
So fast that the onlooking extraterrestrial spectators thought it was an illusion. They barely blinked, and then they saw a silver-haired young man standing in the middle, his left hand resisting the bottom of the giant club, his back facing the stone giant, and his right hand directly lifting the white bear from the ground.
"Huh?"
The stone giant's eyes widened, its palm tightly gripping the handle. Despite its trembling arm muscles, the giant club still couldn't press down a bit!
"How is this possible?" The other two stone giants were also astonished. After all, they stone giants considered themselves one of the strongest combat races in the Milky Way Alliance.
The silver-haired youth casually resisted the giant club, ignoring the stone giants, and smiled at the white bear. "Hey, long time no see."
"You... you're..." The white bear, extremely weak, struggled to open one eye. The moment it recognized the silver-haired youth, it couldn't help but burst into tears, sobbing:
"Kyle, I missed you so much!"
