Chapter 355 - Earth Zeta 71
[POV Reo]
"This world seems to have a somewhat darker vibe to it..." Ororo muttered under her breath.
"It is pretty advanced though... these cars are much more advanced than the flying cars we have back in Elysium..." Jean said in an excited tone while looking at the car.
"I have already hacked into Stark's system... you won't believe the type of shit their whole group of involved with... the whole world is divided into empires... there are no longer any government bodies in the world..." Nat said while pulling up various files from Tony Stark's system of this world.
"This world is pretty advanced... Stark's security must have been better too, you didn't have any problems, right?" I asked Nat who simply shook her head in denial.
"His system is virtually impenetrable for any hackers but unfortunately he didn't safeguard his system against a computer that can utilize magic" Nat said with a smug grin on her face.
"I don't feel my presence in this world... I find it pretty odd, was my counterpart so weak that she was killed?" Hela asked me with a bewildered look on her face.
"I also feel quite odd in this world... though I don't know why?" Flavia said while looking around.
"Hela... you are not the only one... I already know that I am dead in this world" Jean deadpanned and Hela was still shaking her head in disappointment.
After finishing our dinner, I decided to pay a visit to this alternate reality... Flavia was getting really worried because it was still her duty to protect our reality from outside threats. A threat from a different reality also counts as an outside threat to our reality.
So, Jean, Ororo, Nat, and Hela decided to accompany me... they wanted to see their counterpart's world. Even I was surprised to see how technologically advanced this world was... not only the flying cars... but everything in here was advanced. The whole place was filled with towering skyscrapers and each of them reached above the clouds.
Yes, the pollution levels were much higher in this world even though in this world the cars didn't have any kind of combustion engines. I could sense the whole world... and the whole Earth was littered with towering skyscrapers like we were currently standing on.
I looked up towards the sky and found that even the moon wasn't spared... half of the moon was made up of metal and it was clear that it wasn't because of something natural... the Earth was also surrounded by a natural Asteroid belt and two man-made rings... the rings were like from the movie Elysium, in which Mark Wahlberg had starred in.
I needed to find out about this world and there was a simple way to do it... my eyes turned green and started to glow eerily but my eyes weren't like Hela's... the light in my eyes, wasn't natural... it was magical. I started to see the history of this world... and to be honest, I was quite impressed and digested at the same time.
The strong people in this world decided to join corporations after the World War II instead of Governments, the Government obviously tried to stop it, but it was already too late...
While the Governments around the world were busy with the war, the biggest corporations kept gathering political power from behind the shadows. So, the face between the Governments and these Corporations happened, the Corporations came out as victors.
Stark Industries became one such Corporation and they slowly engulfed the whole US, before moving towards Canada and finally Mexico. Now, the whole continent was known as the Aetherium Empire... quite a bold name... Avian Draconic Crusaders... Howard must have named his Empire after the battleships he Corporation are feared for... The Dragon series battleships.
Apparently, Howard Stark was still alive in this world... and it was also because of one simple thing... Red Skull never got his hands on the Tesseract, since he didn't get the Tesseract, he failed to make Tesseract powered weapons, due to that Bucky didn't fall off the train to become Winter Soldier.
Howard was the first person to find the Tesseract too and instead of making weapons, he used the Tesseract to revolutionise technology... Stark industries were the most powerful corporation in the world... Howard could have easily taken over the whole world with his military might but he simply didn't need to... after all, Howard found that ruling over the whole world would be bothersome so he was satisfied with this whole continent.
Since Red Skull didn't have the Tesseract, Captain America didn't have to sacrifice himself... after the war, the Captain was given the Infinity Formula, the same formula that Nick Fury had taken to elongate his life. Since the Captain was alive and kicking... he was able to completely eradicate Hydra.
Since there was no Hydra, there was no longer any Alexander Pierce or Wolfgang von Strucker, so no one manipulated Stark to make Ultron from the Mind Stone, but he did make an Android named Vision using the Mind Stone, Vision was a combination of Jarvis and the AI structure present inside the Mind Stone.
So, due to that, there was no Ultron in this world, so Sokovia was also fine and never got destroyed. That is why there were no unhappy Sokovians who would try to take revenge for their families... the incidents of the Civil War never happened in this world.
Yeah... so in simple words, this world was a lot different than ours... I finally stopped using the power of the Time Stone... after all, I have seen everything I needed to see. "To be honest Hela, your counterpart was pretty weak then you... after all, she wasn't the Avatar of Death, and she was defeated by a group called Avengers... you gave them a pretty good fight" I said while looking towards Hela, even though she wasn't impressed, she still nodded her head.
"Jean... your counterpart simply died because of bad luck and the stupidity on her part... she blindly trusted Charles Xavier and when he asked her to sacrifice herself to protect humans... she sacrificed herself with a smile on her face..." I said and Jean already had dark lines on her face... yeah... her reaction is quite understandable.
"Ororo, you have already met your counterpart... well, there isn't anything more to know about her..." I said with a shrug and then I remembered something about her... "Though your counterpart is smitten with the Prince of Wakanda..." I said with a shrug and Ororo also shrugged also after hearing that...
"Nat... I don't know what to say... your counterpart is a Fury fanatic from head to toe... though it isn't her fault, after all, Fury played her like a fiddle and now your counterpart thinks that he can't do anything wrong..." I said solemnly. Nat immediately grimaced after hearing that...
"Sorry, Flavia, your counterpart died as some noble concubine back in the 1300s... though he kept you happy" I said with a grin on my face and Flavia simply shrugged. She wasn't bothered by her counterpart's fate... she was busy munching on potato chips...
Even though the world was so developed and advanced, Meta-Humans were still treated like dirt in this world... only because of one person... Charles Xavier. Meta-Humans only have one safe place in this whole world... the Xavier Mansion, outside of the mansion they are treated worse than animals...
Eric had tried to do something... but every time he was stopped by the X-Men, they completely ignored the fact that Eric was trying to do something for them... for the X-Men, as long as Charles was happy... everything else was fine... that old bastard had brainwashed them pretty nicely...
From the outside, no one will notice this fact... but if someone badmouths Charles Xavier in front of them... then they will automatically consider the person in front of them as a bad guy... they didn't show this attitude in our world was simply because we were talking about a completely different Charles.
Now, do I feel bad for these Meta-Humans? The answer is a big fucking NO. I don't give a single fuck about them... yes, they have my sympathy but since they have decided to place their trust in an old fool... they better face the consequences. After all, Charles didn't do all the brainwashing as soon as he met them... he had done that throughout the years.
Now, if I have arrived in this world then everything would have been different though... I would have simply killed all of them and I would have Crucioed Charles into a brain dead vegetable...
"So, what are we going to do now?" Ororo asked me while looking towards the sky.
"I say that we allow them to enter our world and give them a big surprise" Jean said in an excited tone.
"I agree with Jean, they will come to our dimension willingly but they will be buried in our dimension unwillingly" Hela gushed out with a sinister grin on her face.
I looked towards Flavia, after all, her opinion also mattered since our whole reality was involved. "I have no problems with what Hela proposed... as long as they die, I have no problems" Flavia said with a shrug and I nodded my head.
"Then, let's go back..." I said with a grin and a blue portal opened right in front of me...
