Marvel: I can summon heroes from League of Legends

Chapter 166: Chapter 161. A Portal to the Other Side of the Universe Opens!



"How are things, Dr. Selvig?" Nick Fury asked.

Before him, the device containing the Tesseract radiated an increasingly bright light that filled the laboratory. Alarming signals flashed on the screens, emphasizing the gravity of the situation.

"Director!" Erik Selvig, seeing him, hurried over.

"The Tesseract is being a bit temperamental," Selvig joked, trying to lighten the mood.

"Are you serious?" Fury approached him.

"No, it's really bad," Selvig's expression turned serious as he began to explain the problem. "The Tesseract spontaneously activated about an hour ago, emitting unstable energy. It's activated a few times before, but after our adjustments, it always returned to normal. This has never happened before."

"Can't you cut off the power?" Fury asked, watching as one of the researchers attempted to measure the Tesseract's energy output but was thrown back by a powerful surge.

"The Tesseract is a power source in itself. We tried cutting off the power, but it immediately reactivated the equipment."

Selvig approached the control panel, and Fury followed.

"If the Tesseract's energy reaches its peak..." The scientist looked worried.

"We're working to prevent that, Doctor. We're studying how to harness the Tesseract's energy," Fury replied, understanding Selvig's concern.

"But we're clearly not succeeding. My calculations are far from complete." Selvig cast a worried glance at the director.

For him, studying the unknown was always exciting, but the Tesseract demanded extreme caution. He understood that S.H.I.E.L.D. was trying to exploit this artifact for their research, but he could only do his job, as he was merely an employee.

"Right now, the Tesseract is emitting some interference and radiation, but it's not dangerous—just low-energy gamma rays."

"Gamma rays? That could be dangerous," Fury said, recalling Bruce Banner and his history with the Hulk. Although Selvig claimed the rays were harmless, he couldn't afford to be careless.

He turned to his team.

"Coulson, check the latest security footage. See if there were any suspicious activities."

"Understood, Director." Coulson immediately left to carry out the order.

"Barton, you were monitoring this facility until recently. Did anything unusual happen?" He turned to Clint Barton.

Before Noah informed Fury about Hydra, Barton had been responsible for guarding the Tesseract but was reassigned to work with Fury due to the sudden threat posed by Hydra.

At that moment, the Tesseract's energy level surged again, and Selvig rushed back to the console.

"Nothing suspicious. There were no unauthorized personnel, and Selvig acted normally," Barton said, recalling the past few days.

Fury frowned. If no one interfered, why was the Tesseract behaving so strangely?

As he pondered this, Talos approached the Tesseract, studying it. He remembered why he had brought the Skrull representative with him.

"Talos, do you see anything?" he asked.

"Yes, the Tesseract is acting strangely, as if... someone is influencing it from the other side," Talos replied. Although he wasn't a scientist, his military experience allowed him to draw certain conclusions.

"What? You're saying someone is affecting the Tesseract from the other side? But how is that possible?" Selvig was surprised by Talos's words.

"Uh... because..." Talos hesitated for a moment, wondering if he should explain what was happening. After all, he was playing the role of an agent, and such explanations could raise questions about his true identity.

Vzzzzzz!

Just then, the Tesseract suddenly emitted a powerful wave of energy. A blue stream resembling electrical discharges flowed across its surface—something that had never happened before.

Everyone stopped talking, stunned by the artifact's sudden activity, and stared at the cube. Noah, observing from outside, also noticed the change. He understood that this was a signal for the Tesseract's opening—something on the other side was about to enter the base.

He activated his Ghost spell and instantly phased through the walls, heading deeper into the facility.

The Tesseract continued to vibrate erratically, but after a few moments, its activity subsided slightly, as if everything was over. However, the calm didn't last long. Suddenly, the energy flared up with renewed intensity, even stronger than before. Objects throughout the base began to tremble; the building seemed to shudder under the impact of a powerful energy surge. No one understood what was happening.

"Something is trying to come through!" Talos exclaimed anxiously.

"What? Damn it! Dr. Selvig, shut it down!" Nick Fury yelled, barely able to stay on his feet, bracing himself against nearby equipment.

"I can't! It's out of control!" Selvig replied desperately, trying to stop the reaction through the computer, but to no avail.

Black Widow, always ready for action, prepared for a potential threat, while Hawkeye, who had his bow drawn from the start, watched the unfolding events with caution.

"Director Fury, are you ready to meet your guest from space?" Noah's voice echoed as he materialized in the room. He hadn't tried to stop the Tesseract, as he simply didn't know how to do so without risking an even greater catastrophe.

"Noah?! How did you get here?" Fury nearly called him by his real name, clearly surprised by his sudden appearance.

Powerful energy spiraled around the Tesseract, the blue light becoming blindingly bright. When the accumulated energy reached its peak, a brilliant blue beam struck the platform in front of them, as if piercing through space itself. A shimmering blue portal, resembling a massive gateway, opened at the point of impact.

Everyone was stunned by this spectacle, but Noah merely observed with interest, wondering who was on the other side of the portal.

Vwoom!

However, his thoughts were interrupted. As soon as the portal opened, several blue energy projectiles erupted from it, hurtling towards them.
