    ?


    [500 Power Stones Reached!!! Next Goal: 1000PS]


    "S.H.I.E.L.D. has encountered a change?" Pelli''s face was full of surprise as he listened to the voice on the other end of the phone.


    A while ago, they had used some small tricks to nt insiders within S.H.I.E.L.D. As soon as something happened at S.H.I.E.L.D., they would be informed.


    The phone Pelli carried was for this purpose, as he typically didn''t use one.


    "Someone broke into S.H.I.E.L.D.?" Pelli looked astonished.


    As the person on the other end exined, he pieced together the situation.


    Just recently, rms had sounded within S.H.I.E.L.D. A powerful individual had forcefully broken in.


    Their insider, who constantly monitored S.H.I.E.L.D.''s internal affairs, immediately knew that the event the mages had been waiting for might be starting and promptly called to inform them.


    After hanging up, Pelli ryed the entire situation to Kaecilius and the others.


    Yusis, who had joined the group not long ago and had previously questioned Kaecilius, was stunned. "Is the prophecy of the Demon Goding true?"


    Not only him, but nearly ten other new mages also showed expressions of surprise and skepticism.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om


    Kaecilius pondered, "The person who broke in is likely after the Tesseract."


    "Master Kaecilius, why do you say that?"


    Pelli and the others were puzzled, not understanding why he was so certain the intruder was after the Tesseract.


    Kaecilius exined briefly.


    "Recently, the Tesseract was returned to S.H.I.E.L.D. I performed a magical ritual tomunicate with the great Demon God, asking if we needed to retrieve the Tesseract, but the Demon God had no interest in taking it back."


    "The great Demon God revealed that Earth was about to face its destined fate, and it would be unwise to interfere..."


    Kaecilius''s face grew solemn. "I specte that Earth will soon experience a major event, one that the Demon God has foreseen and does not wish to alter, which is why I wasn''t instructed to retrieve the Tesseract at that time..."


    A major event?


    What kind of event could attract the attention of such a being?


    Yusis and the others found it unbelievable and couldn''t imagine what could be significant enough to warrant such concern.


    ording to Kaecilius, Earth would soon face this significant event...


    But would it really happen?


    An event so significant that even the Demon God took notice? Could such a thing truly exist? If it were true, the Demon God''s ability to foresee such events indicated immense power.


    Yusis and the others hesitated, contemting.


    Kaecilius then waved his hand, conjuring a portal and retrieving a pile of magical materials from the other side, preparing to perform a ritual tomunicate with the great Demon God.


    Seeing his actions, Yusis and the others, realizing what was about to happen, were filled with anticipation.


    As new members, they had never interacted with the Demon God. Now, it seemed they would finally get the chance.


    Soon, with the help of Pelli and the others, the ritual tomunicate with the Demon God was prepared.


    Kaecilius stood at the center, initiating the ritual.


    As the ritual began, he sensed a mysterious, ethereal presence, like the will of the universe.


    "Great Demon God, your humble servant has something to report..."


    "As you predicted, S.H.I.E.L.D. has encountered a change. Someone has broken in. What should we do next? Do you require us to take any action?"


    Far away, as Syd operated his internal light energy, he paused, hearing Kaecilius''s prayer. Syd''s mind raced, "The Chitauri invasion is finallying, and Loki is about to appear?" The event was urring sooner than he had anticipated, but it didn''t matter as long as the Mind Stone and other Infinity Stone-rted items appeared.


    As for Kaecilius''s question about what they should do...


    After a moment of thought, Syd said, "You need do nothing but ensure that the Tesseract remains on Earth."


    The mysterious, sacred voice echoed in Kaecilius''s mind.


    Kaecilius responded respectfully, "Understood."


    Just as Syd was about to end themunication, Kaecilius''s question caught him off guard.


    "Great Demon God, what event is about to ur on Earth that warrants your attention?"


    Despite hesitating for a moment, Kaecilius couldn''t resist asking.


    The eyes of the dozen mages around him lit up, filled with curiosity and anticipation. They too were eager to know what event could be so significant.


    Syd was momentarily stunned, then pondered for a few seconds.


    The next moment, the sacred voice resonated in the minds of Kaecilius and the others.


    "Earth is about to face its destined fate-it will be invaded."


    "A war will begin, one with widespread impact. Earth will experience a cataclysmic event."


    The Demon God''s mysterious voice left Kaecilius and the others in a daze.


    They clearly heard the words, but they were filled with confusion, not entirely understanding


    the meaning.


    They wanted to ask for specifics but didn''t dare, so they could only specte.


    An invasion from an external force?


    What kind of force? They had some understanding of the first statement but were puzzled by


    the second.


    A war with widespread impact?


    What kind of situation could be described as such by the Demon God? And what did "cataclysmic event" mean for Earth? What was going on? Kaecilius and the others were


    perplexed.


    Then, the Demon God''s voice spoke again.


    "Alright, just follow my instructions. You don''t need to know too much about other matters."


    With that, the Demon God ended themunication, and the glow of the magical array


    gradually dimmed.


    Kaecilius and the others exchanged nces.


    The Demon God''s words were cryptic, or perhaps all prophetic statements were inherently


    vague. Couldn''t they be more straightforward?


    The mages were filled with curiosity, their minds aze with questions.


    At the same time, human nature made them somewhat skeptical, not fully believing the


    Demon God''s words.


    However, they figured that soon they would know whether the Demon God''s prophecy was


    true.


    What would happen, and would it align with the great Demon God''s prediction?


    Yusis and the others wondered.


    After cleaning up the traces of the ritual, they quietly left, heading to S.H.I.E.L.D. to monitor


    the Tesseract as instructed by the Demon God.


    If any unusual situation arose, they could intervene promptly.
