Time flies and years pass by.
In the blink of an eye, more than a year has passed.
After going through the most difficult, painful and sad time, those who are still alive have to make themselves stronger.
So tall stone tablets were built to record the names of missing persons, and every day a large number of people came with flowers to pay tribute to the dead.
As national strength gradually recovered, the doomsday scenes of the Great Depression were curbed.
The economic and industrial systems were back on track. Although the momentum of development was cut short and even regressed, at least many factories were restarted, the paper-like currency was recognized again, food supply was restored, and people once again returned to their new lives and started working.
Although it is only a warming trend, with the foundation laid before, I believe it is only a matter of time before the world returns to a civilized legal society.
It's just that the "root cause" left over from that catastrophe has not yet been completely eliminated.
The hidden danger of unrest still exists, and it erupts from time to time.
Walking on the streets, you can still see a lot of ruins, countless scrapped vehicles, and some wreckage of plane crashes.
Oh, by the way, sometimes you can find some corpses or things of value.
It is as if every country has a large number of garbage dumps that have not been cleaned up in time, so a group of "rag pickers" who are unwilling to work are born.
Every time Dio sees such a scene, he would think of the planet Sakaar and that bastard Gao Tianzun!
But no matter what, most countries in the world are gradually emerging from sadness and despair.
As for Dio and others who made great efforts behind the scenes, no country is willing to mention them. Even if they are mentioned, most of them curse them behind their backs.
After all, in order to stabilize the world, they used many methods that could not be made public, so it was normal for people to hate them.
But they don't care about that.
Compared to the results obtained, this is nothing.
If they had not intervened with a strong and tough attitude, it would have taken at least four to five years to restore the current situation.
But even so, there are still many small countries that completely disappeared in the long river of history amid the turmoil.
Regarding this catastrophe, many countries have compiled it into teaching materials and included it in elementary school textbooks so that future generations will remember this history.
However, the whereabouts of Gao Tianzun has never been found.
Except for Natasha and Steve who insisted on staying in the Avengers base, everyone else seemed to be adapting to their new life.
Tony and Pepper got married in a low-key manner, and then moved to a cabin in the suburbs because Pepper was pregnant, and Tony, the bastard, was finally going to be a father.
I still remember that on the wedding day, Tony only invited Dior and a few others to attend.
It's so simple in every way, which is totally unlike Tony's flamboyant style.
But Dior and others still gave their most sincere blessings, but many "guests" were afraid that they would miss the wedding of the two forever.
Scott also returned to New York and focused all his attention on his daughter, wanting to accompany her as she grew up.
After going through so much, he was very scared, afraid that he would not see the day when his daughter grew up, got married and had children.
So even though he also wanted all the missing people to come back, before that, he was only willing to stay with his daughter.
It seems that he never considered that there might be something else he could do...
In addition, Dr. Banner has been studying some mysterious things during this period, and then suddenly one day the Hulk, who had not appeared for a long time, appeared.
Ever since Hulk became autistic after being beaten by Thanos, Dr. Banner has been unable to bring Hulk back into being no matter how hard he tries.
So it was quite surprising that Dr. Banner was successful this time, and even more shocking things are yet to come!
Because Dr. Banner has completely merged with Hulk!
The power of Hulk plus the wisdom of Dr. Banner are successfully combined into one to create a brand new "monster"!
But the bad news is that Dr. Banner can only remain in this state and can never change back unless he makes another breakthrough in his research.
When Dio learned the news, he had been observing Natasha's expression. After all, it was no secret that Banner had a crush on her, and Natasha had always been the kind of "bad girl" who neither refused nor expressed her opinion.
Now that Banner and Hulk have merged into one, it's almost like giving up, otherwise someone will have to die. With Natasha's small physique, cough cough
I guess Dr. Banner knew that Natasha's heart was not with him, so he made such a choice.
Then something even more interesting happened.
Dr. Banner, who merged with Hulk, actually opened a store, and with Vision!
The two of them partnered up to run a pizza shop on one of the busiest streets in New York.
It took Banner eighteen months in the Gamma Lab to successfully combine strength and wisdom. During these eighteen months, Vision was not idle either. He started from the lowest level of job as a waiter, decorator, dishwasher... trying to fully integrate into human society.
As it turned out, he succeeded!
At first he transformed himself into a human form, but as time went on, he gradually let go.
After going through many hardships and experiencing the warmth and coldness of the world, if you ignore his appearance, he is no different from a normal human being, and is definitely not the same as he was when he was with Tony and others.
So when Hulk put on his glasses and clothes, Vision also put on an apron and stood by the oven.
During this year or so, Vision not only became more and more like an ordinary person, he even learned how to cook. Although it's not as delicious as what Dio cooks, everyone who has eaten it gives him a thumbs up and praises it for being delicious!
Only then did Vision realize why his previous cooking was so bad, because cooking itself is not a mechanical assembly that follows a script. Only by understanding what emotion is can one make food that is truly soulful.
This theory made Dio scratch his head. It couldn't be said to be wrong, but why was the style so biased? He was not sure whether Vision would develop glowing food one day and suddenly find him to have a food battle...
What's even more speechless is that the restaurant run by Hulk and Vision became a big hit all of a sudden!
And it was a fire that was a huge mess!
Almost every day people line up to buy pizza just to take a photo with these two. It's really ruining one's worldview!
