In an American comic book world, you start with a horse charm.

At midnight, New York is shrouded in a psychedelic glow of neon lights and searchlights.

The alien mothership's purple energy pulse tore through the clouds, expanded the portal in the New York sky, and dyed the Manhattan skyline an ominous fluorescent hue.

Countless enormous Leviathan spaceships, like giant beasts from the deep sea, flew out of the portal and roamed freely in the skies above New York.

Their enormous bodies were like mobile destruction machines, mercilessly crushing everything in their path. Accompanying the spaceships were alien soldiers constantly jumping out, piloting airships and rampaging through the city, relentlessly firing at the fleeing crowds.

The sirens blared throughout the city, mingling with the screams of the people, as if playing a mournful symphony from hell.

The Statue of Liberty, this iconic symbol of freedom and hope, is now just a broken wreckage floating on the Hudson River. The river water, tinged with a dark purple by the exhaust flames of the airship engines, resembles flowing lava, silently telling the cruel story of this disaster.

At this moment, Miller, who was lying on the bed, began to urge Natasha on top of him to speed up their movements.

Iron Man's armor swooped down from the clouds, arc pulses drawing silver meteor trails in the night, shooting down numerous airships. As the wreckage crashed into the streets, the burning titanium alloy shells bathed the entire street in a hellish orange-red hue.

Bruce Banner leaped from a height of 10,000 meters and crashed to the ground with a "boom," kicking up a cloud of dust. Then the Hulk emerged from the dust and, with unparalleled brute force, destroyed the massive Leviathan spaceship, becoming the deadliest force on the battlefield.

Upon receiving the news, Thor arrived at the battlefield riding his lightning bolts, continuously wielding his hammer and using the lightning to annihilate large numbers of Chitauri soldiers.

The war machine unleashed a barrage of firepower from the air, relentlessly annihilating the Chitauri soldiers on the ground.

Captain America arrived on the ground to organize the police and civilians to set up defenses, using tactical command and his indestructible vibranium shield to cover the residents' evacuation.

However, the portal in the sky was like an endless abyss, constantly sending forth an endless army of Chitauri.

Miller was making his final push against the exhausted Natasha.

Thor realized this couldn't go on and flew towards the pillar of light to try and close the portal, but Loki, who was waiting nearby, stopped him, and the two brothers engaged in a fierce battle. Loki, wielding the Mind Stone scepter, was surprisingly able to overpower Thor.

With Thor gone, countless Chitauri soldiers gradually overwhelmed the superheroes on the ground.

The superheroes began to suffer defeat after defeat.

Upon seeing this, the US military prepared to launch a nuclear missile.

After getting dressed and covering Natasha with a blanket, Miller headed out towards Captain America's location, treating fleeing civilians as he went. Soon, he was surrounded by a large crowd.

Meanwhile, the invisible Mystic soared into the sky, instantly arriving at the location of the portal in the heavens. He raised his head and used the laser eye's all-around radiation mode—a 360-degree circular sweep—where the blazing red light seemed to reap the lives of the Chitauri army like the scythe of death.

The Leviathan roared in despair as it was mercilessly melted by the laser eye, its massive body gradually collapsing into a pool of lava. The interstellar warships were not spared either, disintegrating in mid-air into a rain of fire, as dazzling yet deadly as fireworks.

In just one minute, he single-handedly wiped out the entire Chitauri army outside the portal, leaving corpses strewn everywhere and a scene of utter devastation.

This scene was like a hellish spectacle, sending chills down one's spine. The avatar floating in the air seemed to be a god of destruction from the abyss.

Seeing this, Loki knew something was wrong and prepared to escape. Taking advantage of the moment when Thor was splitting up due to the actions of the Mysterious One, he successfully left the battlefield.

Seeing this, the Chitauri soldiers who were still fighting on the ground gradually collapsed and were defeated one by one by the superheroes who arrived one after another. After the smoke cleared, all eyes were focused on the figure in the center of the sky that looked like a god of destruction.

However, the clone focused its attention on the nuclear bomb that was hurtling toward it like a meteor.

Faced with the impending destructive power, the clone remained fearless and calmly unleashed its laser eye once more. The scorching energy beam struck the nuclear missile with pinpoint accuracy, causing it to explode in mid-air. A massive fireball burst across the night sky, resembling a magnificent fireworks display, yet concealing endless danger and destruction.

Then, the clone looked at the superheroes who were currently extremely tense.

They were either suspended in the air or standing on the ground, each with a face full of vigilance and unease, as if waiting for a storm to break.

However, to their surprise, the clone did not intend to attack them at this moment.

Perhaps they are brewing an even bigger conspiracy? Or perhaps they are enjoying the thrill of this cat-and-mouse game?

Unexpectedly, the clone used its laser eyes to leave its declaration on a skyscraper in New York: "I will take over the entire United States in three days!" Then, it casually took the cosmic magic that served as the energy source for the portal and disappeared without a trace.

Miller, the divine healer who was treating the people on the ground, felt his reputation points rising rapidly. He didn't know if it came from the seemingly endless Chitauri army or from the declaration left by the Mystic.

Iron Man Tony Stark's armor alarms blared as he quickly scanned the energy analysis report on the holographic projection: Laser Eye spectral frequency mismatch, radiation resembling the sun's core energy? "Jarvis, activate the global satellite defense network and flag all anomalous heat sources."

Captain America, Steve Rogers, gripped the vibranium shield tightly, as memories frozen for seventy years overlapped in his mind's eye. The shield, flowing with the blood of the Chitauri soldiers, gleamed coldly in the night, reflecting his resolute face.

Tony stared at the spot where Loki had vanished, his emerald eyes swirling with complex emotions, a tangled web of feelings welling up inside him. But when his gaze fell upon the scorch marks left by the Mystic, a sudden sense of unease washed over him. Was he truly a match for this supervillain? Unable to find an answer, Thor gripped Mjolnir tightly, then raised it high, shouting, "Heimdall!" A dazzling rainbow bridge appeared, transporting Thor to Asgard. Thor prepared to seek the help of his father, Odin.

Bruce Banner slumped to the ground, the scene of the Mystic easily annihilating the Chitauri army replaying in his mind. He was unsure whether the Hulk could withstand the laser beams that were like the Grim Reaper's scythe.

War Machine Colonel Rhodes stood quietly beside Tony.

At this moment, New York, or rather the entire Earth, began to be shrouded in the shadow of a being called the Secret One.
