129. Orb.
While waiting for the food, Alex, Kara, and Pietro didn't sit idle. Pietro and Kara sipped their drinks, still struggling to process the shocking reality they were facing.
Alex, however, was intrigued, watching the 'superhero' pole dancers with great interest. He had already figured out which universe they were in. This was the [Old Man Logan Universe], one of the three renowned post-apocalyptic settings in the comics.
The history of this world was straightforward. One day, all the villains 'woke up'. They united against the superheroes, overcoming their differences for mutual gain. The villains planted spies among the Avengers and turned the Thunderbolts against the heroes. With a meticulous plan, they exchanged enemies and caught the heroes off guard.
No one knew exactly what happened on the day the heroes were defeated. They just vanished, leaving the villains to rule and carve up the world. If only Earth had suffered, it might not have been so hopeless. People believed that the superheroes roaming the galaxy would return to Earth and bring justice. But the situation in the universe was even worse.
Galactus, to satiate his hunger, created a cult, using his cosmic powers to control its members' minds. These powerful beings worshiped him and sought his next meal. The universe descended into chaos. The cult's fleets spread everywhere, constantly at war with the rebels. Countless planets were massacred, and no one could stop the cult, not even Thanos.
Everything changed.
Heroes were gone, and evil reigned. It was as if the world, like the aging sun, was about to plunge into eternal night.
"Miss Minutes, remind me, how much time do I need to stay?" Alex muttered, communicating with Miss Minutes.
Well, you'd better keep your eyes wide open and watch closely.
Hiss—
Orb shuddered inexplicably.
He had intended to see who dared use magic in his club. After Red Skull led the villains to destroy the heroes, most superpowered individuals went into hiding. To maintain control, Red Skull and other villains forbade unauthorized use of magic or supernatural powers in their territories, under severe penalties.
Currently, the only ones using magic should be those supervillains who defeated the heroes. Orb wondered why they'd visit his club. But when he focused on the three strangers in cloaks, he gasped in shock!
It felt like being struck on the head. Orb's brain trembled wildly, and fragments of unfamiliar memories forcefully invaded his mind. His vision was overwhelmed by chaotic images, everything twisting severely. He even felt something inside him on the brink of explosion. Overwhelmed by an unprecedented sense of danger, Orb stumbled back several steps, knocking over a server's tray.
Clutching his eye, he screamed in agony, "Get out! Get out of my mind!"
