Chapter 104 Return to Earth
Link believes that Odin may not allow them to interfere in Asgard's affairs. Although the two sides are allies now, their relationship is not that close.
Link didn't fully reveal his strength either, but who knows what the future holds? After all, they'll only have a say after Thor inherits the throne.
Asgard is a good place, and Link is prepared to protect it. As long as Hela can't return to Asgard, she won't have much power. Even if she is strong, what good is it?
Can he beat himself?
……
A month later, Stark and Bruce created a communication device, similar to a laptop, but thicker.
Time was limited, so they didn't plan to stay there for too long. However, they stored up some knowledge and technology before returning to Earth, landing at the Avengers headquarters.
After landing, the three looked down at the hidden marks on the lawn, which were unique to the Rainbow Bridge.
"I think we should build a paved surface based on this design," Stark said. "That way we won't have to ruin the lawn every time."
Link nodded and said, "That's a good idea, but I wonder if Heimdall can get it right next time."
Steve and Natasha had already approached. Natasha spoke first, asking, "How did the trip go, three space travelers?"
"Quite smoothly," Stark said. "We've finished the communicator and can contact Asgard at any time. That's it."
He patted the communicator in his hand, "Everyone needs to learn how to use it."
"It's convenient for contacting the other side in case of danger, but I don't think it's necessary, since they have people who can see us directly."
"See it directly?" Natasha was taken aback.
Bruce said, "They have a gatekeeper who guards the Rainbow Bridge. He has special eyes that can see many parts of the universe."
"No matter how far away, even if he can hear someone calling his name, just like how Thor shouts and the Rainbow Bridge comes down every time."
Natasha exclaimed in realization, "That's really convenient!"
Link laughed and said, "No need to be envious. The drawback is also obvious: some people are indispensable."
"Asgard's excessive reliance on its own power is something we need to be careful about. No matter how strong the Avengers are, they must be cautious."
"Okay, I'm going home now. I haven't been home for a month."
They parted ways; Stark and Bruce went back to continue their research, while Link prepared to draw up the design blueprints for the Swallow fighter.
……
Having not seen Jessica for a month, Link naturally wanted to satisfy his girlfriend first, spending two days with her before starting work.
"Ah Fu~ Let's get started. First, display the design blueprints for the Swallow Flying Skateboard." Link sat at the workbench, the holographic image displayed on it. "Disassemble~"
That's right, the Swallow fighter design was based on this, with the same wings and tail, but its internal structure needed to be adjusted.
However, Link doesn't need to complete all the designs himself; artificial intelligence can help him fill in many gaps. Of course, Link still needs to complete the new technologies himself.
This work will take a long time. As for the production of the fighter jets, he plans to place them at Osborn Industries' weapons factory, which was acquired from Stark Industries and has sufficiently advanced production lines. Link plans to modify them based on this.
Finally, a final assembly workshop is needed to complete the final assembly of the machine, and this final assembly workshop will be located in New York.
The design process proceeded smoothly, while Stark and Bruce were still working on the technology they had retrieved, and Link was far ahead of them.
For more than a month, Link spent every day in the studio designing, until finally, Alfred successfully completed the flight verification calculations.
It took a bit more time, mainly because Link was supplementing Afu with new technologies and knowledge, especially the input of basic knowledge. This was the focus of his work, while design was actually not difficult for him.
The upgrade to artificial intelligence is the most important thing for him, as it will make his future work easier.
In addition to basic knowledge, adding molecular structures of various new elements is also a key point. Link reads too much, so he doesn't have any input in terms of language because there is too much to finish in a short time.
The Asgardians, with their lifespans of five thousand years, had the time to learn the various languages of the universe, unlike humans. Recording such languages wouldn't be very useful, and it would be an enormous amount of work.
Link has focused on improving his input here. He can enter the input at high speed while controlling his speed, but he still doesn't dare to go all out, because it's too fast.
Even supercomputers couldn't handle it, and touch keyboards were even more unbearable, so they had to give up all input.
……
"Norman, I need to modify the production line." Link called Norman Osborn over and took him to his workshop.
"Lin, what new designs do you have this time?" Norman Osborn was very interested. After all, Link was a genius, and the Osborn Group was developing very rapidly in the pharmaceutical industry, with its market value even exceeding 400 billion US dollars.
Many established pharmaceutical companies are wary of them, but Link is an Avenger, and the Osborn Group is also involved in arms manufacturing.
Such beings are not easy to provoke, and there's not much that can be done about them for the time being.
"Look!" Link waved his hand, and a hologram of a fighter jet appeared on the workbench.
Norman Osborn looked at it and then asked, "Is this your flight skateboard?"
"No, this is a fighter jet, with a pilot's seat." Link reached out and pulled, enlarging the fighter jet slightly, making it much clearer this time.
Norman Osborn, somewhat excited, asked, "Is this the new fighter jet the weapons department is going to introduce?"
"This isn't a launch; this fighter jet is a space fighter, capable of operating in space," Link said. "And it possesses space jump technology, meaning it's designed to fly into space."
"Once it's built, I'll drive it into space to explore the world."
"What?" Norman Osborn exclaimed in shock, "A spaceplane?"
Link said, "That's right. No one else knows about this yet. I've been thinking a lot lately about what the future of the Avengers should be."
"If we don't get involved in Earth's politics and focus on dealing with threats in the universe, then it's not enough for just a few of us."
"We need stronger combat power, so the Avengers need to expand and need more personnel."
Norman Osborn understood immediately, but he asked with concern, "Can you and Stark afford to keep this up?"
