At this point, even powerful figures like Carol, Johnny, and Hulk would be unable to maintain control of the entire battlefield.
Less than an hour after the two sides went into full-scale war.
Aside from the fact that Carroll still possesses boundless energy.
On the battlefield, Thor has been unable to unleash lightning for a long time, Johnny's artillery fire has become sparse, and even Hulk has suffered numerous injuries that cannot be healed immediately.
As for the others, there's no need to mention them.
Fortunately, the group's strenuous resistance did yield some results.
The Chitauri have deployed at least tens of thousands of troops so far, but they are still unable to break through the three-block defense line established by the Earth side.
A large number of New Yorkers living near the battlefield were also safely evacuated, with some casualties, but not many.
Meanwhile, the fighting force on Earth was growing weaker.
The Chitauri, however, continued their relentless advance without any pause, continuously deploying large numbers of troops.
These Zeta Swiss soldiers were all half-machine, half-biological modified beings. They were fearless of death and their morale remained unchanged. Under the onslaught of massive numbers of soldiers, they did not even make a mistake in their basic formation.
It's near an intersection on Broadway.
In a makeshift war command post.
Ophelia, Captain America, Tony, and an Army colonel all stared grimly at the blue and yellow energy channel.
The US captain said gravely, "The situation is becoming increasingly unfavorable for us. The National Defense Force alone is absolutely not enough to hold on. What's the status of the resolutions passed by the White House and the Security Council?"
Ophelia shook her head and said, "The Marine Corps can send some soldiers to intervene, but..."
Tony looked anxious and said, "But what? Under these circumstances, the Bai family still can't make up their minds to go to war?"
Ophelia's face was full of bitterness as she said, "It's not that we can't make the decision to go to war, it's just that the casualties in urban warfare are too high, and the military has proposed..."
Captain America frowned and asked, "Ms. Ophelia, what exactly are you proposing?"
Ophelia couldn't bring herself to say it.
The army colonel, however, with a resolute expression, said: "Abandon the treaty, establish a theater defense line around New York, and at the same time conduct saturation attacks with fleet and fighter formations."
"If necessary, the White House can authorize the use of nuclear weapons."
The army colonel had barely finished speaking.
Tony immediately sprang into action, grabbing the other man by the collar and saying, "Fuck you, do you even know what you're saying? This is New York, with at least tens of millions of civilians here."
The army colonel's face was ashen, as if devoid of emotion. He said, "This is an invasion by an alien civilization from outer space. Continuously deploying troops into the city will only increase our losses and give those aliens time to establish a bridgehead."
"Through the coordination of the Security Council, a joint fleet of various countries has been heading to the waters near New York. Before a war zone is established, we will do our best to ensure the evacuation of civilians."
"Everything is for the Federation, everything is for the Earth."
After saying that, the army colonel left the temporary command post.
Tony slumped into the chair, looking dazed, radiating a sense of dejection and anger.
Captain America's expression was also grim. He looked at Ophelia and said, "Is S.H.I.E.L.D. also preparing to give up?"
Ophelia said with a wry smile, "I can die in this city, but I cannot influence the decisions of the Security Council and the governments of various countries."
For a moment, the entire temporary command post was silent and deathly still.
for a while.
Tony had just been cursing and swearing: "Damn politicians, damn the Federation, damn the Security Council, they will be etched in history as a disgrace to human civilization."
As he spoke, Tony began to remove the tattered armor from his body and install a new Arc Reactor.
After finishing, Tony prepared to rush back into the battlefield.
That's when.
A spatial ripple appeared in the three's sight, and Rein, covered in white bone jade light, strode out from the void.
“My dear, you’ve finally arrived.”
"Raine, you bastard, you've missed out on so much."
Ophelia and Tony both exclaimed with delight upon seeing Ryan.
Renn hugged Ophelia, his gaze sweeping over the chaotic battle in the sky outside, and said, "It seems you've had a tough time without me."
Ophelia rolled her eyes at Renn and didn't say anything.
Tony grinned and said, "You really are still that bastard. You weren't hiding here watching the show the whole time, were you?"
Renn: "..."
In the phrase.
Even Ryan had no idea what kind of mouth Tony had.
However, Ryan quickly followed Tony's lead, raising an eyebrow and saying, "Yeah, this fight is much more exciting than those in the movies."
Tony gave Ryan the middle finger and said, "You haven't been driven crazy by that superstar woman, have you?"
"What exactly is that Mind Scepter? How could it have trapped you for so long?"
These days, nobody really believes the truth.
Raine raised an eyebrow and said, "That Mind Scepter is very unusual; it has the Mind Stone, one of the Infinity Stones, on it."
Ophelia exclaimed in surprise, "The Mind Stone?"
Tony and Captain America Steve Rogers both looked on in astonishment.
Renn nodded and said, "That's right. Like the Space Stone inside the Tesseract, it is a treasure of the universe, connected to the origin of the entire universe."
Ophelia: "..."
Tony: "..."
Steve: "..."
Looking at the shocked expressions on the faces of the three people.
With a grave expression, Raine said, "You shouldn't have gone to study the Cosmic Cube. Once the Cosmic Cube is activated, it will symbolize a high-level war signal to the powerful beings of the universe."
"Odin of Asgard once fought a fierce battle with the Celestials over the Infinity Stones."
"Thanos has been searching for the Infinity Stones for over a hundred years in order to slaughter the universe."
"The Kree Empire, the Elders of the Universe, and all the powerful beings in the universe have a great interest in the Infinity Stones."

Ryan played a crucial role in this dramatic battle for New York, but even the woman beside him was unaware of it.
Ophelia had only heard Renn mention the Infinity Stones occasionally.
Renn did not choose to explain anything further to Ophelia and the other two at this time.
After taking another look at the yellow and blue interwoven energy channel in the sky.
Renn also sighed and said, "With the power of the two Infinity Stones, it seems Thanos has made up his mind to attack Earth. This is really troublesome."
At this moment, Ophelia was still in a state of intense shock.
After hearing what Renn said.
Tony's eyes lit up first, and he said, "Raine, you mean you can solve that cosmic passage?"
"I have to tell you, those damn politicians and bastards have decided to completely abandon Europe and might even use nuclear weapons..."
Renn shook his head and said, "Nuclear weapons can't solve that cosmic passage."
"The power of the Infinity Stones has transcended the level of a single universe and reached a multi-dimensional level."
"To close the cosmic portal, only the intervention of power at the level of the Infinity Stones is possible."
Tony and Steve were completely bewildered.
Raine raised an eyebrow and said, "Single universe and multi-level are both classifications of the levels of life evolution. As for strength, that's just what the words mean."
Steve, a World War II veteran and partially illiterate, still looked completely bewildered.
Tony, on the other hand, was extremely knowledgeable in all kinds of subjects, and his whole demeanor exuded a Spartan-like expression.
I was shocked for quite a while.
Tony stammered, "You, you mean..."
Renn nodded and said, "That's right, it's as powerful as you imagine. It's a nuclear weapon, and even Thor and Hulk can withstand it on their own."
"Above Thor and Hulk, there are sub-Skyfather level, Skyfather level, and then single-universe level."
"As for multi-level, haha, even if our universe were destroyed, it wouldn't be able to do anything to that kind of existence."
At this point, Shi Fu understood almost everything.
Tony, looking utterly dejected, retorted, "Shit, does that mean New York is beyond saving?"
Renn nodded, then shook his head, his face full of mystery.
Tony couldn't help but roll his eyes and said, "Damn it, your Sullivan Group is based in New York. If New York is destroyed, you will suffer great losses."
