On earth, reconstruction efficiency after a series of disasters is very high.
The Dumu, holding the infinite gloves, restored the sieve of the earth's surface to its pre-war state overnight.
This kind of material reshaping is not difficult.
The real difficulty is to return the surviving lives to the original rhythm of life.
Just as Merlin felt in the night, the pain and sorrow that permeated the entire world.
Almost everyone has lost their relatives and friends. The kind of disaster that affects both individuals and collectives will inevitably trigger very severe hidden dangers and reflections.
The tragedy of the death of half of the people is a fact that has already happened and cannot be changed.
The collective depression of a world will bring civilizations in the world into a state of desolation.
And everyone’s heart is full of sadness, which will easily push the customary order to the brink of collapse.
No one wants to see a chaotic world after the disaster.
And those exhausted heroes have to prepare for the final battle. They need to be inspired, they need a firm mind, and they need a high fighting spirit.
Pain can be transformed into a driving force to advance, and loss will trigger the instinctive anger of life.
The confused soul needs direction.
They need to hate, they need something to support them not to collapse.
This kind of emotional transformation requires an opportunity.
At dawn on the second day of the disaster, the heroes of the East Coast were all summoned.
They came to New York from various places, flew or passed by a quiet city, and the streets that should have been busy were full of silence, without the noise and vitality of the past.
Although the whole city was cleaned up, the depression surrounding the city cannot be ignored.
Everyone is crying.
The world is crying too.
The place where the heroes were called was on the small wharf of the original Hell’s Kitchen, where a large monument like a cemetery stood on the leveled ground. The smooth stone tablets were densely engraved with names.
Those are the names of those who lost their lives.
"Swoosh"
The golden red super-hungry mark battle armor fell from the sky, and it landed in front of the heroes gathered in twos and threes.
Accompanied by the sound of mechanical operation, wearing a black suit with puffy eyes, Tony walked out of the opened battle suit.
He was holding a bunch of white flowers in his hand, and as everyone behind him watched, the bent down and placed the flower in his hand under the monument.
His mood was deeper than ever. After putting down the bouquet, he stood up straight and bowed his head, as if to mourn the dead.
This action infected many emotional people.
The Flash looked at Tony Stark's back, his body swayed slightly, and in the blink of an eye he placed a large number of mourning bouquets on the edge of the square.
One by one heroes stepped forward, picked up the mourning flower, and went to the stone monument to mourn.
In just ten minutes, the stone monument was full of flowers.
Although it was a very streamlined behavior, the whole square became calmer.
In the snapping fingers of destroying the world, the heroes are the group that suffers the least crisis. The Dumu sheltered most of the heroes with quantum spells and saved them from death.
This is a kind of fortune, but also a kind of misfortune.
Although most of them don't have much intersection with the victims commemorated on this stone tablet, they are all human beings, and they will always die when they witness disasters.
And the same collective mourning is not just happening here, there are similar commemorations in other parts of the world.
Europe, Asia, South America, Africa and so on are all doing the same activities at the same time.
"This is not just a collective mourning, everyone."
After the silence was over, as everyone listened and watched, Steve Rogers, speaking on behalf of the North American hero, walked to the front of the monument.
He is not wearing a battle suit, nor is he carrying a shield.
He is dressed no different from others. The black clothes represent the sustenance of sorrow. In the captain's eyes, there is also unconcealed pain and self-blame.
He adjusted his mood, and his low voice rang before everyone's eyes.
He says:
"We are gathered here today not only to apologize to the people we have failed to protect, but also to arouse our inner worries and let the pain bite our hearts."
"In the past few days, everyone present, including me, has experienced unimaginable torture and trials. We have fought to protect the world."
"we won."
The captain clenched his fists, he stopped, and looked around the square. Thousands of eyes were watching him, none of his faces had the joy of victory, and there was sobbing in the crowd.
He continued:
"We are united and defeated countless monsters."
"We drove the demons that rushed out of the ground back to their hell; we blocked the alien monsters from the world; we witnessed the fusion of a planet and the earth."
"But we are also negligent."
"In the past night, I couldn't sleep at all. Every time I compare my eyes, I can't help but recall the pain when the innocents died, the pain that should have been felt like us."
"They, the people we vowed to protect prayed for help when they died, but we failed to help them, we failed to show up when they needed us the most."
"The disaster happened, and in the blink of an eye, it was almost too late for us to stop it."
The captain's voice became low and he said:
"It's not just the post-war world that is devastated, but also the hearts of the guardians. Malice is always more penetrating. That disaster pierced our defenses and made our victory worthless."
"This is a tragedy, no one can deny it."
"Even if I say more ornate words and more encouragement, it will not change the status quo we face."
"We are in silence, and we should also be in silence."
This sentence caused too much resonance.
The heroes present were not very emotional, and the eyes of kind young people like Peter Parker and Barry were red.
Aunt May, who was standing next to Peter, stretched out her hand and patted her nephew on the shoulder. She tenderly took up Peter and Barry's arms and carried the grief with her relatives.
Behind the heroes, some people who came spontaneously were also infected by this emotion, but they did not blame the heroes.
Everything that has happened in the past few days is obvious to all. Although the result is not perfect, there are still so many people who can participate in this silent mourning ceremony today because of the people in front of them.
It was they who propped up the world at the most critical moment.
"I have heard people say that after experiencing life and death, people will instinctively have a sense of mission."
The captain took a deep breath, his voice sounded again, and he said:
"Just as extreme pain and loss can always wash away the inner cowardice, loss will make an ordinary person a fearless person, so do we."
"I know that many of us are eager to do something to save the status quo."
"We are even willing to pay a high price in exchange for the return of those innocents and bring the world back to the era of peace."
"We are willing to do that, and... we can do that too!"
The captain's voice became louder.
His speech suddenly turned a corner, and the sharp-minded heroes who were present suddenly raised their heads. They felt something different from the captain's speech.
In those gazes mixed with expectation and curiosity, Steve finally revealed the answer, and he said loudly:
"An opportunity lies before our eyes, everyone."
"That's why I summoned everyone here today. Those lost can be recovered, and we can execute another battle to save those we failed to save."
The captain stretched his hand to the stone monument behind him, and he said loudly:
"These victims, they just left temporarily, as long as we find the right way, we can bring them back again!"
This immediately caused an uproar among the heroes.
If someone else uttered these words here, he would definitely be reprimanded as whimsical.
But what Steve Rogers, the legendary hero said is very weighty.
Many people below grew up listening to the story of Captain America.
They are willing to believe him.
In this situation, Steve's terrifying appeal was almost immediate.
Everyone was looking at him, amid the noisy discussion, all eyes were on him, and they were all waiting for the captain to tell the answer.
"We have found a way, everyone."
Steve held the podium with both hands, and he said loudly:
"After half a month, in New Asgard, we will formulate a combat plan. At that time, we will announce everything to everyone."
"I'm not trying to trick you into forgetting the pain. I don't want to do that. I just hope that everyone will transform the pain and sorrow in their hearts and turn them into the driving force that supports us to move forward."
"We still have a chance to save this!"
"We can save it all! As long as we are willing to act, as long as we are willing to unite again!"
"This will be a dangerous battle, and it will be more dangerous and difficult than the disasters we have experienced before."
He says:
"Even many of us, including me, may have lost their lives in it, but if my sacrifice can bring back those victims and save the past, then I will not refuse."
"Who would reject such glory?"
Steve raised his arm and said:
"I am here today to send a call to everyone, everyone, 15 days later, in New Asgard, I will wait for your arrival."
"I will also set foot on the battlefield with you."
"This will be our last battle, and we will meet a new world with our own hands."

"Wow"
On the sea near the Antarctic Circle, the icy wind blew a barren coast.
This coast is quite strange. It is not composed of rocky soil, but some irregularly gathered objects that emit metallic light, just like a coastline made of steel.
It stretches for thousands of kilometers on the sea outside the Antarctic Circle.
There is no sandy beach on the metal coast, only a flat land that emits light in the sun.
Looking back along the coast, at the end of an endless metal plain, there is a city with shadows.
That is a city under construction.
The Cybertronians who returned from the stars and the omnipotents from planned the city as quickly as possible. It will be the first mechanical city to be built on the continent of Cybertron.
It will also be the first capital of mechanical civilization on earth.
The robots have no idea, and call it "Cybertan" to commemorate the rebirth of the mechanical planet that is regarded as hometown on the earth.
Merlin was standing on the shore at this time, watching the sea below surging under the silver-gray rocks.
The well-behaved Xiao Honghou stood beside him, the mechanical little girl looked around, her eyes full of tension and expectation.
"Will she really come?"
Alicia raised her head and looked at Merlin. She asked the same question for the 31st time, which awakened Merlin who was thinking about something.
The latter turned his head and looked into Xiao Hong's eyes. He chuckled lightly, and reached out to touch the girl’s long hair like a human being. He said:
"She will come, how could she just leave her lovely daughter behind?"
These words relieved Alicia's nervous mood, and the little girl took a peek at the pensive Merlin.
She pursed her mouth, then stretched out her hand and took the initiative to hold Merlin's finger.
As if the little daughter was holding her father's finger, she whispered:
"father..."
"Ok?"
Maharaja Raven was used to seeing strong winds and waves, but he was still a little overwhelmed by the call.
However, Merlin didn't take his finger away. He hesitated for a few seconds. Under Xiao Honghou's nervous gaze, he nodded slightly and let out a nasal sound.
"Ok."
This is considered a response.
Xiao Honghou's face immediately showed a touch of joy, and she was also afraid that Merlin would reject this further relationship, even though that was what her mother wanted to see.
"Yo, father and daughter get along well."
The spectacle lady's teasing voice sounded behind Mei Lin and Xiao Hong. When they turned their heads at the same time, they saw a female image suspended on the metal ground like a spiritual body.
She has a slender and perfect body, with golden light lingering around her, as if she was wearing a misty gauze skirt.
She maintains her akimbo levitation posture, behind her, the blue long hair composed of halo ignores gravity, swaying in the wind.
On the shoulders, and in the air behind the head, there are still several light clusters pulsing, as if wearing a divine crown for this peculiar spiritual body.
This is the astralized Icarus.
"Salute to you, the great mechanical goddess."
The gentleness of reunion flashed in Merlin's eyes, he coughed lightly, and pretended to bend over to pay tribute to Icarus.
Next to him, Xiao Hong, who was holding Merlin's hand, also smiled and learned the way his father was, lifted the skirt corners, and made a standard lady gift to his mother.
"Don't call me that, I don't like it."
Icarus curled her lips in dissatisfaction. She levitated forward and reached out to take Merlin's other arm.
As before, with a trace of nostalgia, she attached her spiritual body to the body of the raven, and while the long hair composed of blue rays was flying, she gently kissed Merlin on the cheek.
she says:
"I'm still Icarus."
"Only your spectacles girl..."
