Everyone knew that Namor's disappearance must have something to do with Aron.
But the people from universe 838 still had a tacit understanding…
They unanimously skipped over this topic.
On one hand, because they were well aware of the difference in power between both sides.
They knew that even if it were true, nine times out of ten, their side wouldn't be able to win.
On the other hand, because no one liked Namor!
It's no exaggeration to say…
Aside from Namor from universe 19999-FL, Namor in most other universes had made countless enemies due to his fiery temper.
Basically, very few heroes were willing to associate with him.
If he dies, he dies~
Anyway, no father mourns him, no mother loves him~
"Can you take me to the place where M-Wanda disappeared last?"
After putting aside the Namor episode, Aron asked.
Conventional tracking magic couldn't trace across universes.
If one wanted to find M-Wanda in this vast cosmic desert, like a grain of sand in one multiverse,
aside from setting bait to make her appear herself,
the only option was to follow her trail step by step.
Following the traces she left when teleporting between universes, chasing from one world to the next
until they caught up.
"I know what you want to do."
Who would've thought that Iron Man in universe 838 had the same idea.
Hearing Aron's question, he directly said:
"There's no need to run around anymore, I already have all the data you need here."
Tom pulled out a machine.
Displayed on it were all the records of M-Wanda's interdimensional teleportations.
America stepped forward and, after a long search through the vast ocean of data, finally found a set of coordinates among tens of thousands of lines.
The coordinates pointed to the next universe M-Wanda was heading for.
"So it turns out only this segment is useful in the entire dataset?"
Tom hadn't expected that.
He had collected that data to hunt the killer across universes
so that the new Avengers could avenge Wanda, who had slaughtered their kin, friends, loved ones, and comrades.
But he had never touched interdimensional teleportation before.
Because he had no clue where to start…
So Tom had analyzed for a long time without pinpointing the key data in that set.
Until America, the professional, came along.
"If you plan to go after her, please take us with you!"
Tom's words represented everyone present.
Old Magneto, Wolverine, Doctor Doom, Invisible Woman Susan…
All of them looked at Aron with pleading eyes.
They knew the journey would be dangerous.
But it didn't matter!
Because they were Avengers.
Which meant… even if they died, they would die on the path of vengeance!
But…
"Thanks for the info, but I'm sorry, you're too weak."
Even though the people of universe 838 repeatedly stated that they were not afraid of death,
Aron still rejected their request.
And without hesitation:
"You can't help at all, and if you come along, you'll only slow us down."
In fact, realistically speaking,
when it came to Susan, the Invisible Woman whose husband had just died,
toward the widow…
Aron still felt a trace of sympathy, but only if Wanda and Diana weren't around.
If no one else were present, he might have helped the little widow a bit.
But now…
"We're leaving. America, don't mess up the coordinates this time."
Aron said solemnly.
At the same time, in the little notebook in his heart, he wrote down:
Find a universe where Invisible Woman Susan isn't yet married to a member of the Fantastic Four!
Parentheses, preferably the one played by Jessica Alba!
In addition,
what else was recorded in this notebook: Ada Wong from Resident Evil, the "fairy sister" from Legend of Sword and Fairy, the "hot girl" from the Transformers trilogy… and so on!
It could be said that after entering the multiverse, Aron's ambitions had expanded infinitely.
Before, he didn't even dare to dream of it…
Now, in one sentence: coward, I dare to dream!
"The portal is open.
Bye bye, see you soon."
When America reopened the multiversal channel,
Aron waved his hand and left universe 838 with the three girls.
And the rejected people of universe 838 could only watch as Aron and his group disappeared one by one into the star-shaped multiversal portal.
Even after the portal closed,
the people of 838 still stared blankly into the air.
"Hahahaha…"
Old Magneto suddenly laughed, laughed, and then turned the laughter into a bitter smile.
Wolverine lit a cigarette.
But instead of taking a nervous puff, he threw it to the ground and crushed it underfoot.
"What are you laughing at?" asked Wolverine.
"I'm laughing at us, like a bunch of kids playing pretend.
We formed an organization that only exists on paper.
We cry for revenge…
In the end, we couldn't even find a shadow of our target."
Magneto shook his head, and in an instant, his entire demeanor seemed to age ten years.
Just as everyone was ready to give up,
Iron Man.
or rather, Iron Man stood up.
Just like that desperate Flash over in DC.
In the equally devastated universe 838, Tom's version of Iron Man stood up.
"We've already witnessed two interdimensional teleportations.
In other words, we have two valuable sets of data to rely on, and we have concrete coordinates.
So, it's too early to talk about giving up…"
Tom stared into the sky where Aron's group had vanished.
His gaze gradually hardened.
...
On the other side.
The group of four with Aron had left universe 838.
They followed M-Wanda's teleportation traces to a desolate cosmic starfield.
All at once, they transitioned from solid ground into space.
Wanda and Diana were fine.
Both girls possessed the ability to survive in a vacuum.
America, the only one without space endurance, was also protected by a wisp of Aron's Morning Star power.
He was afraid something might happen to the girl.
"Are we here?"
Wanda looked around, filled with doubt.
The specific location of each teleportation was usually Earth in different parallel worlds.
Because in Marvel's worldview…
Earth was the axial point of the main world or main dimension!
But now…
The four people who were supposed to teleport to Earth had arrived in a black void of space, surrounded by dense meteorites, it looked like it should be an asteroid belt.
"Did I make a mistake again?"
Even America herself was confused.
"You didn't make a mistake.
This really is Earth, more precisely, this used to be Earth."
Aron suddenly pointed in one direction and spoke.
They saw that, near the pile of planetary debris and meteorites, a massive corpse the size of a planet floated silently.
That was… a Celestial, Tiamut!
More precisely, it was Tiamut who had been emerging from Earth in this universe!
But now, that Celestial had turned into a corpse, and the corpse was still wrapped in crimson Chaos energy!
"Her power has grown stronger!"
Wanda's expression was grim.
Destroying a planet! No, destroying an entire solar system!
And killing a god who had completed divine manifestation!
Such an outcome far surpassed Wanda's imagination of Chaos Magic!
"So my Chaos Magic is that powerful?"
Wanda's words had just fallen when a voice identical to hers, only colder, suddenly sounded from the side.
"Yes, have you just realized it?"
A crimson light flared!
Countless meteorites around them vanished instantly!
Only one Wanda with an M-shaped crown remained, surrounded by scarlet flames like a blazing inferno!
"Very good…
You've brought this girl, and you've brought another me."
M-Wanda's gaze swept across America.
And finally stopped on Wanda.
