Chapter 121 - Chapter 121: The Plan to Blackmail Nick Fury!

For Kamar-Taj, which treats space portals as basic introductory secret arts, it was impossible for a natural spatial wormhole to appear on Earth; they would have been filled in by Kamar-Taj sorcerers long ago.

As for why Asgard's Bifrost Bridge could descend upon Earth at will, it was because Earth—Midgard of the Nine Realms—was already under Asgard's jurisdiction.

Nominally speaking, Earth still belonged to Odin's territory.

Therefore, the people of Asgard naturally had the authority to enter Earth.

However, because the Nine Realms managed by Odin were like the various states managed by America, while nominally belonging to Odin as the President of the Nine Realms, in reality, each Planet was autonomous.

Especially since there was a Sorcerer Supreme on Earth whose strength was not inferior to Odin's, Odin's attitude toward Earth had always been to let it develop on its own, rarely choosing to interfere in Earth's affairs.

But no matter how much he didn't interfere, nominally, Earth was still under Odin's protection.

Combined with the existence of the Sorcerer Supreme, Ryan could be said not to worry at all that an old coward like Zeus would risk offending two big shots to come to Earth and seek revenge on him.

As for Zeus sending gods that Ancient One and Odin looked down upon and couldn't be bothered to deal with personally to find trouble with him on Earth, Ryan was even less afraid.

With his current power, which allowed him to slaughter even Ares, God of War, if the gods of the Olympian Gods came—counting every single one of them—they would just be nourishment for him to become stronger, unless Zeus came in person!

But Ryan estimated that with Zeus's cowardly personality, there was a high probability he wouldn't send anyone to Earth to find trouble with him unless he left the range of Earth.

However, Ryan didn't plan on leaving Earth again in the short term.

He would be quite busy now that he was back on Earth.

Not only did he have to crack the genetic lock of the Super Spider and create Super Spiders suitable for May and Gwen, but he also had to find a way to get the Tesseract from S.H.I.E.L.D. and then find a way to connect a spatial wormhole to Jotunheim.

After all, he had promised Sylvie that after returning to Earth, he would find the Tesseract and go back for her.

And didn't Odin say he was giving him ownership of the Tesseract?

Then taking back his own things from that Bald Egg wouldn't be a problem, right?

As an old bully, he saw no problem with it!

So it was decided.

He would find some time to go to the S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters, the Triskelion, and have Nick Fury return the Tesseract that belonged to him.

As for whether Nick Fury was willing to give it up?

Heh, that wouldn't be up to him!

After all, Director Fury, you wouldn't want the matter of you hiding a little green-skinned wife and colluding with the Skrulls to be accidentally publicized, would you?

The Skrulls were a trump card in Nick Fury's hands, but at the same time, they were a fatal double-edged sword hanging over his head!

On Earth, no one even likes traitors to their country, let alone traitors to their Planet!

If this news were publicized, it would be enough for Nick Fury to be executed eight hundred times!

No, he'd have to be strapped to a nuclear bomb for humane destruction!

Ryan could hold this secret over Nick Fury for a lifetime, until the day he died!

But he had just returned, so there was no rush. He would take a few days to relax and spend time with his family before starting these two plans.

Not long after Ryan brought Gwen home, the others who had learned of Ryan's return began to arrive one after another.

Not only were the two brothers Peter and Harry there, but also other members of the Spider Family: Max, Dr. Samuel, and Dr. Banner.

Besides the full assembly of the Spider Family, there was Natasha, who helped him manage the company; Dr. Connors, the core backbone of the company; Thor and Jane, who were already living long-term in his hometown; Jane's assistant Louise; Dr. Erik; and Tony, who had just bought the two buildings Ryan destroyed, also came along with Pepper and Rhodes.

Of course, the Parker family's 'friendly' neighbors, the Fisk family, were also present.

Kingpin also came with his wife, Vanessa.

Oh, right, and that drunkard Valkyrie also came back with Peter and the others.

After all, being in a strange land on Earth, she had nowhere else to go...

Seeing so many people arriving because of his return, Ryan simply decided to host a party at home to entertain his friends.

Watching everyone drinking and bragging to each other in a harmonious atmosphere at the party banquet, Ryan suddenly realized that without knowing it, he actually had so many close friends in this Universe who knew his true self.

A smile couldn't help but rise at the corner of Ryan's mouth.

Well, it's pretty good...

Time quickly passed, and a month had gone by since Ryan's return.

During this month, Ryan's life finally returned to peace once again.

Just as he had expected, although he had killed Drake and many people had guessed his true identity because of his act of taking Gwen away,

No negative news about him or news disclosing his true identity appeared in public reports.

Instead, the reports were all positive news about him, such as [The Superhero 'Spider Monarch' who stopped the Frost Giant invasion has returned, saving New York once again from the Iron Legion], news that caused his fame to skyrocket once more.

When Ryan saw this news, he couldn't help but think that if he had a system like other transmigrators, he would probably have achieved a massive achievement reward by now.

But unfortunately, he was one of the few transmigrators without a system~

During this month, he also learned about some things that happened during the two months he was missing from Peter, Tony, and the others.

First was the sudden appearance of War Machine, Rhodes.

It turned out that the Military had seen the footage of Tony using the new element armor on top of Stark Tower to make Loki 'vanish into ashes'.

Because of this, the Military took an interest in Tony's iron man armor technology, which was powerful enough to 'Slay a god.' They constantly pressured Tony to hand over the technology or at least sell a few suits to them.

Tony naturally refused.

But since Tony had been trying to research spatial technology to bring Ryan back after his disappearance, he didn't have time to bicker with the Military.

Finally, in order to research space portal technology in peace, Tony made a concession to the Military, agreeing to authorize one suit of armor for their use.

But Tony also had a condition: the choice of pilot could only be decided by him.

And that pilot was naturally one of Tony's few friends, Air Force Colonel Rhodes.

Thus, War Machine appeared.

However, since the armor Tony gave Rhodes was only equipped with basic palm repulsor firepower, the Military was quite dissatisfied with the armor's lethality.

Tony, who didn't want the Military to use his armor as a weapon of war, was unwilling to add weapons to the armor authorized to them, so the Military could only find someone else to modify the armor's weapon systems.

What followed was the situation Ryan saw when he returned. The person the Military found was precisely Drake from the Life Foundation. Then Drake had Ivan Vanko hack into War Machine's armor system during the modification, leading to War Machine being controlled later on.

That was the whole process of how Rhodes became War Machine and was subsequently controlled.
