Chapter 90

"Luosen Bridge, the Nine Star Domains, the Central World, our world is in danger?" Stop joking, this is the Marvel world, there are countless superheroes and supervillains on Earth. Yimir found it hard to believe that any force could threaten the entire Earth.

Wait a moment, Yimir, who was about to speak, suddenly froze. In his limited knowledge of the Marvel world, there really was a "major event."

Perhaps it could be considered a threat to the entire Earth, which is the "Battle of New York" in *The Avengers* that brought the Avengers together.

"Evil God, Loki! Good heavens, it sounds so familiar, I should have thought of him right away!" Yimir also jumped up from the bench. If that's the case, has Loki already set his sights on Earth?

"No, this can't be. I need to go home quickly and take my sister away from New York. To Washington, San Francisco, or even to China, anything to keep my sister from getting involved in such a world crisis!"

Yimir had no sense of being a powerful ghost; he had completely forgotten about his superpowers.

In the face of the sudden apocalyptic crisis, he only wanted to protect his sister Kathleen.

Father Terence's expression remained friendly, but his tone gradually became serious: "As believers in the Lord, we are shepherds walking among humanity. Every member of the Holy Knights swears to resist all kinds of supernatural threats and to adhere to the faith in the Almighty Lord. You are no exception, Yimir."

For a moment, Yimir almost thought that Father Terence would say the classic line from the Marvel world, just like Uncle Ben to Spider-Man: "With great power comes great responsibility!"

He thought this to himself and ended up muttering the words: "With great power comes great responsibility!"

"You are absolutely right, my child!" The smile in Father Terence's eyes grew even more intense as he looked at Yimir with praise: "Believers in the Lord have the responsibility to protect our world from magic and mysterious forces."

"Damn!" Yimir realized something was wrong and fumbled to explain: "Listen to me, Father, that's not what I meant!"

"Emotional reactions won't solve any problems. Although I also want to save the world from suffering and resist the invasion of dark forces, I am just an ordinary person, an ordinary student at Columbia University. I don't have the ability to be a savior!"

"Don't worry, my child. I never said you had to face the powerful evil forces alone. In fact, no superhero can resist them alone. We need to form a team."

Yimir's breath suddenly caught: "Like the Avengers?"

"The Avengers?" Father Terence was taken aback and then asked: "What organization is that?"

Yimir scratched his head. If he was not mistaken, this should be the world of the movies. Before the "Battle of New York," the famous Avengers had not yet been formed.

Seeing that Yimir did not respond, Father Terence assumed he might have misheard and continued: "No, no, what we need is not the Avengers, but the Watchers."

The term "Watchers" originated from the church. In the *Book of Isaiah* in the Bible, it is explained as: Watchers are those who guard the city walls day and night, providing warnings of danger to the people within.

Unlike the Avengers, who only defend and counterattack after being attacked, the church hopes to establish an organization dedicated to long-term protection of global safety. To warn of danger, discover danger, and resolve danger.

Damn, Yimir had never thought he would be connected to such a glorious and great profession as a savior.

Since being reborn in this world, he had already planned his future life. He would spend a year obtaining a degree from Columbia University, then use the magical knowledge he learned from the Holy Knights' library to open a specialized paranormal investigation agency.

Even if the magic from the Holy Knights' library was not useful, his ghostly abilities should be enough to handle minor paranormal events.

Wherever there is a haunting, wherever there are evil spirits, don't be afraid, with Yimir, everything is OK!

Yimir had even drafted the slogan for his future agency.

He was silent for a moment before awkwardly saying: "Why me, Father? Just because I am a descendant of the Longinus family? Because I didn't go to church often, didn't pray enough, or didn't donate enough, so you chose me?"

"Of course not, my child." Father Terence squatted in front of Yimir, took his hand, and said sincerely: "You are not the only one chosen to be a Watcher. Do you think we knew the Doomsday was coming just by chance?"

"I don't know." Yimir honestly shook his head. In fact, he was quite curious how the church had discovered that the evil god Loki was watching Earth.

This was information even S.H.I.E.L.D. did not have. S.H.I.E.L.D., the Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement, and Logistics Division, is a special department of the U.S. government dedicated to liaising with and managing superpowered heroes.

In terms of intelligence sources and professional skills, it should be far superior to religious forces like the church.

"Child, what do you think of Magdalena? Can you describe her?" Father Terence suddenly asked with a mischievous tone.

"Uh..." Yimir was taken aback and blurted out: "Cold, sexy..."

"Of course!" Father Terence said matter-of-factly: "She just returned from the Arctic Ocean, so of course she is cold. Magdalena brought the latest intelligence. The U.S. government discovered something there, something very mysterious and not of human origin."

"The Arctic Ocean?" Yimir quickly connected it to the place where Captain America was in stasis. So, what the U.S. government discovered there must be the Cosmic Cube?

The Cosmic Cube, which Loki used to open the interdimensional portal.

"That is the Cosmic Cube, a divine artifact with almost infinite energy that can open portals to other dimensions. It was stolen from the Norwegian Tonsberg Castle in March 1942 by the Germans, who were part of the HYDRA organization, to develop infinite energy and weapons."

"After Germany's defeat in World War II, the Cosmic Cube fell into the sea, and now it has been recovered by the U.S. government."

Father Terence looked around to ensure no one was nearby, then said: "And Magdalena is the person tracking this matter. What belongs to the secular world should remain secular, and what belongs to the divine should remain divine. Humans attempting to use divine items will only bring disaster to the secular world, and we cannot stand idly by. Now is the time for the Watchers to act and eliminate the隐患!"
