"A silver casing?"
"What kind of item is this?"
Tony Stark and the others were momentarily stunned by the new object they saw.
This item was able to sit alongside the Tesseract and the Mind Stone—what made it so special?
In addition, another red gem orbiting around the White-Clad Hero also caught their attention.
"Could this be another Infinity Stone?" Banner wondered aloud.
Hearing his words, Natasha, and the others couldn't help but feel a surge of shock.
"This red gem, along with the Tesseract and the Mind Stone...that makes three, right?"
"The White-Clad Hero has three Infinity Stones?"
Each of them knew that every Infinity Stone contained terrifying power, and their expressions grew tense.
At S.H.I.E.L.D...
Nick Fury's face turned grim.
Even a single Tesseract was dangerous enough in his eyes, but this White-Clad Hero held three?
"These three dangerous objects shouldn't be in the hands of a single person!"
While he was thinking this, across various factions, especially those familiar with the nature of the three artifacts, many shared his sentiment, though they also harbored a desire to claim them.
Under the watchful eyes of billions and numerous factions, they saw four items orbiting the White-Clad Hero like satellites.
To their surprise, instead of reaching for the three Infinity Stones, the White-Clad Hero extended his hand toward the silver sphere.
Tony Stark and the others were puzzled by his choice, wondering why he ignored the Infinity Stones in favor of this item.
Suddenly, before countless viewers, they saw the White-Clad Hero open the silver sphere.
In the next second, a purple glow radiated from it, and a stone emitting a vibrant purple light floated out.
"What is that?"
Seeing this purple stone, Tony Stark and the others felt a jolt, with a thought creeping into their minds.
Could this...also be an Infinity Stone?
As they debated, Thor, who had been tensely watching in silence, instinctively stood up.
"The Power Stone?" Thor exclaimed.
"What, the Power Stone?"
Tony Stark and the others had heard of the six Infinity Stones, one of which was the Power Stone.
They hadn't expected to see it revealed today.
"How did the White-Clad Hero get this stone?"
"Isn't it said that these cosmic relics were formed at the dawn of the universe? How did he end up with four of them?"
Barton, and Banner felt an overwhelming sense of disbelief.
Then, they heard Thor murmuring in awe, "That means...my brother has four Infinity Stones."
Tony Stark initially thought Thor was merely expressing astonishment. He nodded, saying, "It's definitely hard to believe…"
Banner and the others also nodded in agreement.
But then Thor shook his head, saying, "You don't understand what this truly means!"
Tony Stark and the others looked at him in confusion.
"What does it mean? He has four Infinity Stones, that's all, right?"
"While Infinity Stones are unique and special, we're not exactly clueless here."
Unmoved by their responses, Thor sighed, "You truly don't understand."
He continued, explaining, "My father once told me that there are six Infinity Stones in the universe, and if someone manages to gather all six, they'll be able to do anything they desire!"
"It would be like having a wish-granting machine, able to accomplish anything!"
With those words, silence fell upon Stark Tower. Everyone stared at Thor, astonished by the revelation about the stones.
"Are you joking, Thor?"
Dr. Banner hesitated, "How could that be possible?"
"Yeah, if someone wanted to destroy the universe, wouldn't they be able to do that too?" Tony Stark voiced his skepticism.
Seeing the shock on their faces turn to doubt, Thor nodded, "I know it sounds unbelievable, but that's what my father told me. And I trust him; he wouldn't lie about something so unnecessary."
"Each Infinity Stone holds immense power in its own domain. Individually, they might not seem overwhelming, but together, they would unleash an unprecedented force!"
"But my father also mentioned that collecting all six Infinity Stones is incredibly difficult. He tried once but ultimately had to abandon the endeavor."
"It's almost as if these stones are cursed, preventing anyone from easily gathering them all…"
Hearing Thor's detailed account, Tony Stark and the others, initially skeptical, fell silent, contemplating the terrifying potential of six combined Infinity Stones.
Having witnessed the Tesseract and Mind Stone firsthand, they understood the formidable power each contained. The prospect of six such forces united was too daunting to consider.
However, a new question arose.
"Didn't you say it's nearly impossible to collect them all? Yet here the White-Clad Hero has gathered four already."
"He's only two away…"
The sound of gasps filled the room as the terrifying thought sank in.
Thinking about the implications, the horrific image formed in their minds left them in stunned silence.
At that moment, all they could do was hope this wasn't real and that the White-Clad Hero wouldn't manage to collect all six Infinity Stones.
While they struggled to calm their thoughts, the phone on the table, set to speaker mode for communication with Nick Fury at S.H.I.E.L.D., faithfully relayed Thor's words.
At S.H.I.E.L.D...
Listening to the secrets of the Infinity Stones, Nick Fury's mind was racing, struggling to process it all.
Piecing together the information, his instincts told him that this could very well be true!
In the next moment, he made a decision.
The White-Clad Hero must be stopped from obtaining the remaining two Infinity Stones!
And if possible, those four stones should be either destroyed or secured in a special location. If someone were to gain access and use them, the consequences would be unthinkable!
At this moment, even in the distant Asgardian realm, God King Odin, Queen Frigga, and Heimdall were equally stunned by the sight of the Infinity Stones orbiting around Syd.
