Chapter 40: Desperate Humanity, The arrival of Galactus
U.S.A., Pentagon.
American President, Mr. Unreliable, was fiddling with his mobile phone to check the latest comments on his Twitter.
When encountering some interesting messages, the President, Mr. Unreliable, would give them a thumbs-up.
Mr. Unreliable might not be the greatest president of America, but he was definitely the one who was most close to the people.
Just when Mr. Unreliable was enjoying himself playing Twitter, his confidant minister directly pushed open the door of his office and interrupted his movements.
"Hey, you should knock on the door first, you rude fellow."
While cursing, Mr. Unreliable quietly turned off the phone screen, hiding the pictures of the hot girls.
"I apologize, Mr. President. But I think you have to look at this first."
The confidant kept panting, and anyone could see that he was very anxious, almost rushing all the way.
At the same time, he also put a copy of the information in his hand on the table, which was particularly unreliable.
"NASA, huh. Have those space nerds detected any habitable planets again?"
"In the past six months, I have received 20 similar reports. The ridiculous thing is that when they were finally checked, they were all false."
Mr. Unreliable relentlessly spat out. He didn't have the slightest affection for NASA.
But while speaking ill of it, he still read the report carefully and honestly.
It's just that the more he looked at it, the more serious his face became.
At the end of the report, Mr. Unreliable had a trace of madness in his eyes.
"Oh My God! Tell me it's not true!"
Mr. Unreliable was going crazy. He couldn't believe what he saw.
If his confidant now told him that all this was an April Fool's Day joke. He would never be angry. Instead, he would invite this confidant to have a drink.
It's a pity that Mr. Unreliable's hope was destined to be unfulfilled.
"Mr. President, it is a pity, but this report is true."
"Our astronauts on the space station can confirm the truth of this news. The end of the world is really coming!"
The confidant said with difficulty, how much he hoped that this report was false, if possible.
Maybe, It was a joke made by some guy deliberately.
If this was the case, no one would blame him.
Unfortunately, the cruel facts were right in front of him, and he couldn't help but believe them.
A huge black hole was coming towards the earth.
There would be at most three days before the earth would be swallowed by this huge black hole.
This was a disaster more terrifying than 65 million years ago.
Mr. Unreliable was completely frightened and stupefied. He stood there blankly for a long time, unable to return to his senses.
Then he rolled his eyes and fainted.
- ····
Not only at the Pentagon, but at the headquarters of SHIELD, Nick Fury also learned this news.
Seeing the report confirmed by NASA, Nick Fury also struggled to calm down.
The end of the world was coming.
At this moment, even if Nick Fury was the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., one of the most powerful men on earth. He completely panicked at this moment.
Those eyes which were full of firmness on weekdays. At the moment, they were filled with confusion.
He didn't know what to do. He didn't know how to deal with this crisis.
The usual strategizing became a joke at the moment, and for the first time, he felt helpless when facing a difficult situation.
A Black hole. Could this thing be dealt with by Nick Fury?
Not to mention him, all the life on the earth combined, looked extremely small in front of the black hole.
This was not an existence that humans could fight against at all.
Suddenly, Nick Fury thought of someone.
He took out the calling machine he had cherished for more than 20 years, hesitating whether to use this last trick.
Captain Marvel, the strongest individual known to Nick Fury on Earth.
It was also SHIELD's greatest confidence when facing Asgard.
After some hesitation, Nick Fury finally used this pager to send a message to Captain Marvel.
If it was Captain Marvel, there might be a way to deal with this danger.
Nick Fury thought in his heart that Captain Marvel was his only life-saving straw now.

In Asgard, Odin was originally angry about Hela.
At this moment, Heimdall walked in quickly.
"Your Majesty, there is something important to report to you."
Odin saw through the anxiety on Heimdall's face.
"What's the matter? Thor got into trouble again?"
"No, it has nothing to do with Thor, but there is a major crisis in Midgard."
Heimdall replied.
"Galactus, one of the five great gods, appeared near Midgard. And his aim is likely to be directed at Midgard."
Heimdall's insights were naturally not comparable to humans.
Therefore, he could see at a glance that the one that kept approaching the earth was not a black hole at all, but a more terrifying existence.
One of the five founding gods, the Planet Devourer, referred to as Galactus .
A guy who hated all cosmic races.
As far as Galactus was concerned, planets were his food, and a large number of planets were eaten by Galactus every year.
Not long ago, Galactus swallowed a colonial planet of the Kree Empire, resulting in him being chased and bombed by the Kree Empire's fleet.
However, the fleet of Kree was just a bunch of small bugs to Galactus. It didn't hurt or itch at all. So, they didn't matter at all.
Unexpectedly, the Galactus that had just swallowed the planet of the Kree Empire was now eyeing the Midgard.
"Galactus, why is this guy staring at Midgard?"
Odin frowned when he heard the news, which was a big deal.
If someone was not strong enough, the Midgard would be gone.
Although Galactus was the shame of the five great gods, it was definitely a brain problem if someone underestimated Galactus because of this .
As the god king of Asgard, Odin was very aware of the terrible Galactus .
The Galactus in its heyday could be tied to annihilation, which was known as the strongest of the five gods.
Of course, Galactus in a weak state was still a bit embarrassing.
Even Mephisto could beat him.
The only thing Odin could count on now was that Galactus was in a weak state at this time.
In this case, he could still make a move to repel Galactus .
"Those goddamn gods! Why don't they show up?"
"Are they going to watch a civilization be eaten by Galactus?"
Odin thought a little bit uncomfortably.
The biggest shit-chucking stick in the universe was definitely the Celestial Group.
This organization that did things everywhere. They often used the balance of the universe as an excuse to act as a cosmic police officer.
But at such a critical time, why did these people from the Celestial group disappear?
Of course, Odin was just spitting out curses. His relationship with the Celestial group was very bad. And he would get blacked out of the Celestial group if they caught the opportunity.
Odin also knew that the Celestial Group was created by the five great gods, and Galactus was the boss of the Celestial Group.
Under this circumstance, it was naturally impossible for the Celestial Group to find trouble with Galactus .
