Link continued, "But his suggestion was not adopted. Everyone thought he was crazy, and Thanos survived when Titan was destroyed."
"From then on, he had only one goal: to kill half of the intelligent life in the universe, because intelligent life has been constantly taking resources from the universe."
He believes that the universe is finite, and resources are also finite.
"A madman!" Princess Suli exclaimed in surprise.
"Yes, it's crazy, but didn't the question he raised exist?" Link said. "Now we have nuclear fusion technology, and the future energy problem of the Earth has been solved, but we can't see what the situation will be like tens of thousands of years from now."
"Thinking that far ahead is worrying unnecessarily, but thinking about it might not be without problems. However, there is one thing: arrogance. We must reject arrogance."
"Afu, show us the military strength of Thanos."
Then, the entire visual system changed, and Link continued, "The Vanguard Legion, this is Thanos's cannon fodder legion. Their numbers are extremely large. General Okoye, how many can your spear kill?"
"This vanguard is extremely fast and physically strong, far exceeding that of humans."
"Therefore, we need weapons of mass destruction and rapid-fire weapons, and we need to know how they are deployed."
"Usually, it's launched directly from space via a transport capsule to a planet; it doesn't fly down, it's just dropped down."
"Although it's not as convenient as the Rainbow Bridge in Asgard, it's not much different. It can be deployed directly near the enemy and then a large number of vanguard troops can be released to charge."
"And that was just the vanguard. Next came the Chitauri army, flying machines and Velistan, as well as some huge biological units."
"Their army is far larger than ours, the Avengers."
"The problem with Earth is that it is not a unified planet. It would take a long time for nearly two hundred countries to unite and organize an army."
T'Challa listened and understood the difference between the two sides: the enemy could be defeated one by one, while each country could only fight its own battles. At the same time, because the strength of the countries differed, the size of their armies also differed.
At the same time, the vast oceans separating the continents also posed a problem due to limitations in transportation.
They might even be attacked while crossing the river, making them virtually unable to provide support, especially when facing space battleships or motherships.
"Don't be careless, everyone. In the universe, quantity is very important. You need to know that they are different from Earth. The entire planet has become a unified government, and the resources it mobilizes are those of the whole planet." Link explained to them.
"The numbers are extremely large. For example, the battle between Xandar and Kree lasted for thousands of years, and the battle area was spread all over the universe. It is said that the two sides only recently began peace talks."
"We don't know the specifics, but the number is not negligible. So, everyone, now abandon your Earth-based thinking, because you are about to face the universe."
The three of them nodded silently. Indeed, they had overlooked this point. Compared to a single country or a so-called united army on Earth, even with tens of millions of people involved in the previous two thousand wars, how could they compare to an entire planet?
A planet with billions or even tens of billions of people, and the other side has the capability to carry out large-scale armaments—that's terrifying.
Unless they are destroyed in space, but are there that many spaceships and fighter jets?
The problem is not a technical one, but a manufacturing one. Manufacturing is a holistic process, not something that can be accomplished by a few individual organizations.
The Avenger is only a medium-sized warship, carrying only 120 aircraft.
Link continued, explaining, "We Avengers have a medium-sized warship, carrying only 120 fighter jets."
"Of course, this doesn't even include the individual combat abilities of our main Avengers members."
"In terms of troop strength alone, we are equivalent to a raider team. Now let's talk about raiders."
The raiders are not responsible; they are a relatively loose organization, and as long as they don't break the ironclad rules, there are no problems.
These teams are scattered throughout the universe and rarely assemble unless absolutely necessary. However, once they do assemble, their combined strength can rival that of an entire planet.
The Avengers' forces were only equivalent to one of their teams.
The gap must be acknowledged. Link's goal was to undermine the arrogance of the Wakanda. T'Challa finally spoke up, "Indeed, the gap between us and cosmic civilizations is still very large."
"And Wakanda might need to upgrade its weapons. Suri, I'm leaving this to you. We need high-powered weapons and rapid-fire weapons."
Link said, "Fighting in space naturally requires energy weapons, and the vacuum environment will not cause the energy blasts to lose too much power."
"Within the atmosphere, gunpowder-based weapons are much cheaper, which is true for us."
"Especially the cavity effect after it penetrates the body, which is better than ordinary energy weapons against large alien creatures."
"Unless it's a high-powered energy weapon that can blast off a limb or half of their body with a single shot."
"We need to understand that the enemy we are facing cannot be exactly human in size, which is another problem we need to address."
"The universe is vast, and we have only just entered it."
……
The popular science campaign lasted a long time, which shocked the Wakandas and also gave them an explanation, since they provided a large amount of vibranium.
Something always has to be given, like technology. Suri came here to learn technology.
After the outer working module was completed, Link, along with some newly recruited personnel and Peggy Carter, headed there; she would be stationed permanently at the outer space headquarters.
After all, she has regained her youth, and her current appearance is not suitable for appearing on Earth. Staying at the outer space headquarters is very suitable for her.
Next came the construction of the command tower and communication tower, as well as the final eight "tentacles".
Eight "tentacles" are responsible for the docking of the warship, and many swallow-type fighters will also be arranged to be parked there. When attacked, the fighters can quickly take off and fight back.
A large number of robotic arms will be deployed here to repair and maintain the fighter jets, requiring a significant number of staff.
Because of the modular design, any damaged part can be replaced, and the replacement is convenient. However, a lot of personnel are needed, and recruitment is ongoing.
Falcon was also one of the applicants. He had a good resume and had participated in the testing of the flight wing. The Avengers could help him build the same flight wing and make improvements.
