X-Force: Beyond Omega

Ch: 71 [The Space Stone]

I told Fury about the Tesseract which contains the Space Stone and the Time Stone in Kamar-Taj. Well, there was no Dr. Strange, so it's safe to assume that the Ancient One has it and it would be impossible to get it from her. When I told Fury about that he was like─ 'How the hell does that guy know I have the Tesseract? Is he spying on us?' and his thoughts were clear. 

Oh, if anyone is wondering about the Reality Stone or that sludge, well, I can't reveal everything to them just like that, can I now? If I were to face Thanos, I gotta have some kind of insurance and what could be better than the power to control the reality itself, right? But the bad part is that I have no idea when the convergence will occur.

Four agents entered his office with a large metallic container and placed Nebula inside. Then they carried the container out of the room. After that Fury led us to the underground lab where the scientists and re

Tony groaned. "Why is it always New York?"

The dreadnought fired its first salvo, a concentrated energy blast that narrowly missed the Quinjet, rocking it violently.

"Brace yourselves!" Steve shouted as Tony leaped out, flying towards the ship to intercept its fighters.

"We're gonna need backup," Clint muttered, securing his gear.

"This is no coincidence," Bruce said, his voice low as the Hulk threatened to resurface. "This has Thanos written all over it."

As the Quinjet dodged incoming fire, the Avengers prepared for another fight.
