Chapter 242

Not long after Joanna arrived at Stark Tower, people from the White House came to question her.

The person who came to make trouble was a man in his early thirties, who seemed not deeply immersed in the political world. From the hostile aura he gave when he entered the door, Joanna knew that the other party had no experience.

"I heard that Joanna Rickman is here." When he said this, his eyes swept across Joanna's face.

Joanna sneered and ignored it.

"Mr. Stark, I hope you don't forget the agreement with the military. You are responsible..."

"I know exactly what I am responsible for. The question is, do you know what you are doing?" Tony interrupted the other party with a sullen face, "You just broke into my building without knocking? Who do you think you are? Stark Industries is a private company. Are you breaking into a private company on behalf of the military?"

The man looked at Joanna: "But I have reason to believe that there are fugitives in this building."

Joanna sneered: "Tony, stop talking nonsense with him. If he wants to search, let him get the documents."

Tony looked at the man: "Did you hear that?"

The man angrily threw down the sentence "You made a big mistake, Mr. Stark", and rushed out the door.

Joanna couldn't help frowning: "My God, Tony, is our country|family going to end? What kind of idiots are these? What are those people in the White House thinking!"

Tony sighed, "Now you know what I've been up to."

Joanna patted Tony on the shoulder pityingly: "Don't worry, retribution may be late, but it will never be absent."

Tony slapped Joanna's hand off and led her into the elevator: "They're in the basement."

"Where Baji was closed before?"

"Yes, the place where that guy was locked up." Tony couldn't help sighing again in the elevator, "Let me first say that I don't know more about these people than others. But Sol seems to trust them. A good part of what they say matches that prophecy. I'm assuming you've heard of that prophecy."

Joanna looked calm: "I've heard of it. I just don't know the details. For example, I didn't expect you to find me first."

"About this..." Tony twisted his shoulders uncomfortably, "You also know that when the Avengers turned underground, I didn't have too much trouble with them."

Joanna tilted her head and looked at Tony: "Thank you for your hard work."

Tony pursed his lips: "It can't be said, everyone is just paying for their original choices."

Joanna pursed her lips lightly and smiled, but said nothing.

The elevator dinged softly, and then slowly opened the door.

Before Joanna could see clearly what was going on outside, she saw a fluffy ball flying towards her face.She subconsciously screamed, then crouched down.

The ball unfurled in the air, turned into a raccoon, and landed firmly: "Peter! I will say it one last time, don't make a fucking mess!"

Joanna looked up and looked out of the elevator.

A man checked his trouser pocket with his hands, and said like a little hooligan: "Rocket, sometimes you have to admit that you are too sensitive."

Joanna looked back at Tony: "Is this the group of guys?"

Tony raised an eyebrow.

Well, compared to what they saw in that future illusion, the group of people in front of them looked even more unreliable.

Joanna began to doubt the reality of that future for a moment.

A green-skinned woman apparently noticed Joanna and Tony.She took two steps forward, looked at Joanna, and finally cast her eyes on Tony: "Your friend?"

"Well," he looked at Joanna, "isn't it like that?"

The green-skinned woman took two steps cautiously, her eyes still fixed on the two of them: "Joanna Rickman?"

Joanna raised her eyebrows involuntarily: "I don't seem to have done any major events that deserve to be reported in outer galaxies?"

"No. I only heard about your name in the last two days." The green-skinned woman finally stopped her slightly hostile scrutiny, and stretched out her hand to Joanna, "Gamora."

Joanna held Gamora's hand generously: "Today is also my first... no, it's the second time I heard your name."

Gamora didn't let go of Joanna's hand, and raised her eyebrows dangerously at her.

Peter, who was a rogue at the side, heard the conversation between the two, and couldn't help but get serious: "Where did you hear her name?"

Joanna looked at him sideways: "From you."

Everyone was stunned and didn't react for a while.

Tony was the first to understand what Joanna meant.

"Have you met that magic stick?"

Joanna nodded: "Yes, and twice."

Tony shrugged helplessly: "Come on, I think everything has become troublesome after he appeared."

This is the first time Joanna has returned to the mansion since the Avengers disbanded.Even in this basement, which she hasn't been to several times, she feels that there is a sense of home everywhere.As she looked around the room, she walked absently around the crowd.Then I stood still not far from Sol: "Although I have met Strange, believe it or not, I do not know as much about the situation as you. So... If you don't mind, Who is free to give me some basic information?"

"Thanos is gathering an army to attack the earth." Gamora said concisely, pointing out the core of the matter in one sentence.

"Uh..." Joanna tightened her lips in embarrassment, "If you don't mind, can you tell me who Thanos is? How do you plan to attack the earth... or something like that."

"Hey! Her tone sounds like an investigator!" The little raccoon beside him couldn't help but said.

"Sorry kid. I do crime journalism. This is basic information. Don't know how to do it"

"Who are you calling 'little guy'!" The little raccoon got angry and grinned at Joanna.

Joanna was startled, and subconsciously hid behind Saul as quickly as possible.

"Hey, Rabbit, she's my friend, let her go." Thor winked at Rocket, "Please."

Faced with Saul's maintenance, Rocket seemed even more unhappy. Although he didn't yell anymore, he still argued with Saul for a long time on issues such as "she is your friend, I am not your friend".After a while, the three aliens next to him who didn't talk much at first also joined the ranks of persuading and quarreling.

For a moment, the entire basement echoed with noisy voices.

Joanna turned her head to look at Tony, only to see Tony leaning on the iron frame beside him with a look of lovelessness.Joanna sharply saw a few strands of white hair in Tony's temples.She was startled, then controlled her expression, and turned her head to continue talking to Gamora.

"So, about the questions I started, do you know the situation?"

"Clear." Gamora looked at Joanna coldly, her calm face did not reveal any emotion, making it difficult to understand her attitude towards all this at the moment, "Thanos is from Titan. That planet is now finished and desolate. He ended his planet himself, and then began his journey of conquest. Wherever he went, he left only scorched earth. Don't get me wrong, he didn't want to conquer anyone, he just... He just likes to kill. He doesn’t treat prisoners of war well, even those who surrender to him. He doesn’t keep any of them.”

Joanna's face was a little dignified, but she still said in a relaxed tone: "It sounds like he is quite principled."

Gamora sneered: "But all this is too slow for him. He has been looking for faster ways to kill."

"He found it?"

"Infinity Gems."

Joanna blinked: "It seems to be a professional name that needs to be explained in detail."

"Infinity is tempered by 6 singularities before the Big Bang. There are 6 singularities in total, and each one has different abilities. If the 6 gems come together, they will have a huge impact on the universe."

"It sounds a bit like Dragon Ball." Joanna couldn't help complaining.

"what?"

"Nothing." Joanna cleared her throat, "Go ahead."

"He has collected almost all the gems." Gamora said with a heavy face, "In terms of combat effectiveness, he has become an invincible opponent. If we don't plan early, when he arrives on Earth, you will have nothing to do." No power to fight back.”

Joanna thought for a while and asked, "He targeted the earth because... there are gemstones here?"

"The Eye of Agamotto. The Time Stone. As far as we know, that thing should be in the hands of the Supreme Sorcerer."

Joanna looked at Tony suspiciously: "Do you know him?"

"I don't know. But according to my inference. There is something wrong with their news. That thing is now in the hands of that magic stick."

Joanna showed a suddenly realized expression: "In other words... Strange gets out of the earth with the gem, won't we be safe? We have a solution, who will come forward to drive people away now?"

"No, no, no, Joanna. You didn't figure it out! This is not how things are resolved!" Saul on the side heard the words, and ignored the entanglement with the Rockets and others, and quickly explained, "We must defeat him. Understand What? We're going to beat Thanos."

"That's what you straight men think. Thanos wanted the gem, but he didn't accept surrender. In the long galaxy, he picked the earth because the owner of the gem is now on the earth. Logically, we Just drive Strange away. Thanos may be invincible, but no one said Strange couldn't."

Saul opened his mouth, feeling speechless at Joanna's remarks: "That... no, wait a minute. Joanna, let's talk about it first. Everyone in this room is his own. So, don't use a lying tongue Okay?"

Joanna frowned a little unhappily: "Don't think it's because of a lying tongue every time you think what I said makes sense, maybe what I said makes sense?"

"Okay. It's like this. Joanna, you have to figure it out first. Thanos is bound to get the Time Stone."

"So we're going to get Strange out. Isn't it?"

"No." Thor tried not to be distracted by Joanna, "If we drive Strange away, no matter where he is, he will be caught by Thanos. And we don't know where he will be." Get caught when and where. We can't help at all. Then Thanos will have all the Infinity Stones."

"Then?"

Gamora said coldly, "Then he'll kill half the life in the universe."

"what?"

"Just like you heard. Slaughtering half the life. That's what he collected the Infinity Stones for."
