"Haha, this is just showing off," Thor laughed without hiding anything. "With William here, at least I can be sure that in his plane, my mother will not die, and Thanos will not be able to snap his fingers.
My sister, Hela, the goddess of death, and the fire giant Surtur, who is restrained by frost magic, can't destroy Asgard even if they get the eternal fire.
Not to mention that in his world, William had already obtained five other gems besides the soul gem.
Moreover, the Time Stone was personally passed on to him by His Excellency the Mage Supreme, the Ancient One, and he was also given the position of Mage Supreme.”
When Thor said this, he smiled and looked at the Avengers who looked like they had seen a ghost. After waiting for a while, he concluded, "If you don't believe me, you should believe in Ancient One and my father Odin."
"This", Banner, Stark, and Captain America looked at each other, and in the end they could only nod helplessly.
"Wait a minute," Hawkeye suddenly thought of something and suppressed the sadness in his heart, frowning, "If this super magician can answer my question, then I can be 100% sure that he is fine."
"what is the problem?"
Hawkeye looked at William by the lake, shook his head and said to Thor who was asking, "You said that man is an indescribably powerful magician. What if he is eavesdropping on our conversation?"
"This is impossible," said Thor, who was upright in his heart. He also believed that it was impossible for someone as powerful as William to eavesdrop.
But they don’t know that if William didn’t eavesdrop, he wouldn’t be William Devonshire.
"Then what are you waiting for?" Stark, who had the same estimate in his mind, said, taking the lead to walk to the lake. "Bring the gems, let's go give him the final test."
With excitement, the group left the factory building where the quantum teleporter was located and walked towards the lake. However, they did not notice that Nebula only took a few steps and fell behind.
When Stark and the others walked out of the factory, she turned around and ran towards the quantum teleporter.
William, who had been paying attention here with his mental power, had no intention of reminding Stark and the others after sensing Nebula's movements.
He has already experienced it once, so as long as he has the Infinity Stones in hand, no matter how hard Thanos tries, the final result will only be the same as the last time.
When Sol and the others walked to the small pavilion by the lake, William, who felt a little crowded, saw a red light coming out of his hand.
The reality gem was activated, and the small pavilion by the lake suddenly appeared in his imagination,
It turned into a bar-type viewing platform covering an area of 100 square meters, with leather sofas, marble tables, and more than a dozen bottles of precious wine.
Glancing at Thor who was already holding a barrel of wine stored in Asgard barrels, William did not ask these people to pour the wine himself.
Instead, he said directly to Hawkeye, "Tell me, what do you want to ask me?"
Hawkeye, who was stunned by this unabashed eavesdropping statement, looked at William.
Immediately, I was pressured by his gaze and mental power, and my heartbeat accelerated in fright.
He swallowed and took a few deep breaths before asking respectfully, "Thor said you have obtained five infinity stones in your plane?"
"That's right." William revealed the Infinity Gauntlet in his hand and the red reality gem on the glove, then closed his eyes to sense the space gem in his world,
After using the Space Stone to find the Time Stone, and then the Power and Mind Stones, the shadows of these four stones appeared on the Infinity Gauntlet.
This made the Starks, who had already learned this information from Thor, couldn't help breathing more nervously, and even broke out in cold sweat on their foreheads.
Instead, only Hawkeye, probably thinking of the death of Black Widow, had a fearless thought in his heart. He held the soul gem tightly and stared at William and said,
"Since you can find five gems, tell me why you didn't find the soul gem?"
"Hehe, an agent is an agent." William chuckled, then shook his head and said, "But it's no wonder that you, a person who has experienced it personally, would think of using this question to test me. It's quite normal."
After saying that, William waved his hand in the air without using the Reality Stone, and the magical picture of six Infinity Stones appeared in everyone's eyes.
However, after thinking about it, he smiled and said, "Let's keep it simple."
With a thought, the other five gems revolved around the soul gem, "To be honest, the soul gem is a gem that I don't want to touch.
Not only because it has created consciousness, people cannot predict whether they will be bewitched by it after being exposed to it for a long time, affecting their minds or spiritual power.
And because if you want to get it, you have to follow the rules it sets."
"What are the rules?" As soon as Sol interrupted, he completely believed William in his heart.
Then he reacted and said, "Since you know this rule but didn't get the soul gem, does that mean the price of this rule is very high?"
"That's right".
Thinking of Black Widow Natasha, William put away the smile on his face and showed a rare look of regret and heartache.
"One soul is exchanged for another soul, and it must be the soul of the person you truly love, and you must sacrifice it to the soul gem to get it."
After hearing William's words, Hawkeye, who had just returned from the planet Vormir where the Soul Stone was located, was shocked by various accidents and William's deeds, and could no longer hold back the sadness in his heart.
Covering his head, he choked and cried silently.
Stark and others, who were also shocked by William, recalled it and then looked at Hawkeye,
I still don’t understand what William means by ‘one soul for another soul’.
The atmosphere suddenly changed from suspicion and vigilance towards William to helplessness and sadness.
William sighed, looked at Hawkeye helplessly and said, "You only experienced it once, but I experienced the heartache of losing Natasha twice."
"Damn it," Thor, who was filled with sadness, suddenly stood up and grabbed William's arm, shouting mindlessly, "You don't want to get the soul gem, but in your own world, use Natasha to experiment
Once?"
"Shut up, Thor."
When William's whole body erupted with strong electric light, which made Thor's arm numb and he stepped back repeatedly, Rocket Raccoon angrily yelled at Thor who was sitting on the long marble table,
"You idiot can't be smarter".
Thor was stunned and heard Rocket say to the other Avengers, "Do you think if William was really interested in the Soul Stone, would he not grab the Soul Stone just now?
And there is no need for him to experiment with the people he loves."
This made Thor, who was sometimes smart but most of the time reckless, ask without caring about the numbness in his arms, "What do you mean?"
"It means that since Natasha and I can get the gems, the other two people who love each other can also get the soul gems if they have reasons that they cannot refuse."
Hawkeye shouted at Thor, "There are many people in this world who have no way to take revenge, or for various reasons such as saving people, restoring the country, or even faith, etc.
And the couple, father and son, lover who are willing to get the soul gem for William."
