Chapter 127. Sky City
In reality, only Ji Yuan, Steve, and Stark truly knew the details of Project Tower. As for Peter, Matt, and the others, they only knew that there was a grand plan and chose to unconditionally trust Ji Yuan and Steve.
The only ones truly confused were Natasha and Coulson.
Hydra was completely exposed in a confused way, and then S.H.I.E.L.D. was disbanded in a confused way. Both of them were still a little confused at the moment.
And now, Steve has suddenly invited him to join a super organization—the Alliance of Light.
Furthermore, based on Steve's current description of the Alliance of Light, this is clearly not the Alliance of Light at all, but rather the Kingdom of Light.
It will definitely be independent of the nation, and its true direct superior is the god Ultraman, with the aim of protecting the weak, resisting cosmic disasters, and spreading light.
If anyone else had said this, Natasha and Coulson would have scoffed, but coming from Steve, it sounded incredibly believable—after all, he was the ideal soldier.
And all worries have been resolved. As far as we know, the strongest on Earth is not any country, but Ultraman. So what else is there to think about?
At least Ultraman, and his messenger Ji Yuan, have always been doing good and righteous things, not the darkness hidden beneath the light.
Steve scanned the room, giving Natasha and Coulson a special look, and solemnly asked, "Are you willing to join the League of Light?"
There were no objections; everyone present agreed to join, without even mentioning any benefits. This was Ultraman's authority.
"Great!" Steve breathed a sigh of relief.
It's important to know that not everyone can join the Alliance of Light. He possesses some of the base's permissions granted to him by Ji Yuan, allowing him to perceive many special things.
In a sense, this base is actually in a living state; without some kind of recognition, no one can enter this base.
Fortunately, everyone is able to come up, which means they are all trustworthy.
You have to understand, these days it's incredibly difficult to find teammates like that, and it's truly rare to find someone who won't stab you in the back.
"Then let's meet here again at noon tomorrow. That's when the base will take off and the alliance will be officially established. Please don't be late," Steve reminded everyone.
Everyone nodded, and no one left.
Steve covered his head and chuckled: "You can stay here. If you need anything, just call Jarvis. He's in charge of all the facilities at the base."
"Yay!" Peter and Pietro shouted and ran out in a flash. They had never actually been to this base before, so of course they wanted to take a good look around.
After Coulson nodded to Steve and Ji Yuan, he toured the massive base under Jarvis's guidance. After all, as an agent, he naturally needed to be familiar with the place where he worked.
Natasha winked at Ji Yuan and was then led out by Jarvis; she and Coulson shared the same idea.
Soon, only Stark, Steve, Wanda, and Ji Yuan remained in the meeting room.
"Sigh, it's finally starting." Steve sighed, leaned back, and the chair automatically transformed into a recliner.
With his hands clasped behind his head, he said, "These past two days have been exhausting. Communicating with that group of people is so tiring; they're all so calculating."
Stark said, "Captain, you're being too hard on yourself. It's just a chat, what's so tiring about it?"
Steve pursed his lips and answered with his eyes closed, "You don't understand. In front of the American government, I have to pretend that everything I do is for the American government."
"But in front of the United Nations, I have to pretend that I am doing everything for the interests of the United Nations and deliberately cater to it. This is something no human being can do."
"Fortunately, we finally achieved our goal, and everything is moving in a positive direction."
Stark shrugged dismissively. It was just a way to fool people. He could easily pass the test. In terms of acting, he was definitely an Oscar-worthy actor. It was just a pity that he didn't have Steve's fame and trustworthiness.
"Oh, right." Stark and Steve had been bickering for a while when Stark suddenly turned to Ji Yuan beside him: "Ji Yuan, you said joining the League of Light requires qualifications, but what exactly are those qualifications? Are there any specifics?"
Ji Yuan glanced at Stark with a penetrating look in his eyes, and Stark suddenly felt as if he had been completely seen through, and goosebumps rose all over his body.
"Stark, I know what you're thinking," Ji Yuan said confidently.
"Actually, the qualifications are very simple, which can be summarized into three points."
"Peace, justice, and protection."
"This applies to all of humanity, without national boundaries. Its significance lies in protecting the weak, fighting against evil, and maintaining peace."
Are you sure the person you want to recommend is qualified?
Stark fell silent. He had naturally recommended Rhodes to join the alliance, but this "no borders" policy had directly killed him. Rhodes was a soldier who strictly obeyed orders, and at least for now, he was not qualified.
He expressed only slight regret before asking again, "So how should we recruit allies? Are there really that many qualified people in this world?"
"You don't need to worry about that," Ji Yuan said slowly. "The light will guide those who are qualified to come before me. Whether they are qualified or not, the light will provide the answer."
"Alright then." Stark nodded indifferently. He should have guessed it sooner. There was actually no answer. Whether he could get in depended entirely on whether Ji Yuan, Ultraman's number one favorite, agreed. Why make it so mysterious? Who are they trying to fool?
Soon, the next day arrived.
If we were to ask what has been the most talked-about topic around the world, it would undoubtedly be this alliance that has ostensibly succeeded S.H.I.E.L.D.
This is called the Alliance of Light, a second S.H.I.E.L.D. unit jointly authorized and supervised by the United Nations.
Most people are taking a wait-and-see approach to this alliance, but it is viewed much better than S.H.I.E.L.D.
It's not just that the director is Steve Rogers, this ideal warrior, but also his openness to the world, unlike the clandestine operations of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Then it gets seeped through like a sieve without you even realizing it.
Of course, there is also a small group of people who think that this organization is not much better than S.H.I.E.L.D., as it is also a power institution.
Even worse, some people think this is just riding on the coattails of Ultraman's popularity. After all, Ultraman is not only called Ultraman now, but also known as the God of Light because he is always accompanied by light when he appears.
But when that magnificent, enormous, and exquisite super facility, seemingly unearthed by any earthly creation, took to the sky.
Everyone was stunned, not only by the incredible craftsmanship of its structure and its sheer size, which surpassed even New York City.
What's more, it's the ability to take off, so that it can be seen from anywhere in the world, seemingly both close at hand and far away.
It was like a miracle!
Of course, the most shocked were the UN leaders. Steve had said that a base belonging to the Alliance of Light would be launched into the sky, so they didn't need to panic, but they never expected it to be this kind of facility.
A superbase covering an area larger than New York City—this is no base, it's clearly a giant city.
The sky city, which only exists in imagination, has a small sun in its center that emits such bright light that it almost overshadows the sun.
Most importantly, they could no longer contact Steve.
This is bad!
