The reason the time was set for two days later was not because the Nova Corps needed to prepare anything.
Instead, based on observations of Michael and his group of four, they seemed to be in the midst of 'tourist' excitement.
As a humane Nova Empire, sometimes it considers the mood of its 'partners.'
And these two days, due to Nova Prime's decision, the covert observations targeting Michael and others became even more… frequent.
Furthermore, without the knowledge of most people, some small reconnaissance spacecraft, highly skilled at stealth, quietly flew towards Earth.
Yes, they 'flew'! To avoid detection, even these small, specialized reconnaissance spacecraft, extremely good at stealth, did not use wormholes for travel. After all, the fluctuations caused by opening even the smallest wormhole would be impossible to hide from a power capable of building the colossal cosmic battleships like the one Michael was on!
Michael was unaware of all this, and of course, he wouldn't care. He didn't even pay attention when a general from the Nova Corps, leading an honor guard, politely informed him of a meeting with the Nova Empire in two days.
Contacting Nova Prime was an unexpected development.
Although some flaws in the Dream caused it to be detected during its spatial jump, forcing contact with Nova Prime, with Michael's current strength, he truly didn't need to treat Nova Prime with excessive caution. To put it bluntly, what if he ignored her? Did she want to test the penetrating power of gungnir or the destructive force of spatial collapse?
The Nova Empire's overall national power is indeed strong, but in terms of top experts, the Nova Empire doesn't have many formidable individuals, not even one who could rival the Ancient One. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been so easily robbed of the Power Stone by Sunset Purple Sweet Potato later, even leading to the destruction of Xandar!
If there had been even one strong individual capable of using the Power Stone, the Kree Empire would never have been able to wage a war against the Nova Empire for hundreds of years...
Michael was aware of these 'tails,' but he didn't pay them any mind. He didn't even suppress the passive effects of the mutated gem anymore.
In an instant, everyone tracking Qi Jun and his group began to doubt their perception.
Their eyes clearly saw Michael and his group of four happily shopping, buying, and eating, but no matter how many more advanced monitoring instruments they used, there were always only three people!
This sudden change made everyone observing Michael and his group even more hesitant to act rashly.
Whether this was Michael's special ability or the use of special equipment, as long as no one could verify it, they wouldn't dare to have any ideas.
This ability was too terrifying. With just the added help of body invisibility, not to mention the Universe, at least on Xandar, Michael could wander anywhere he pleased, as if he were at home, exploring however he wished.
Michael was unaware that his deliberate leakage of this ability led to the Nova Corps holding another special discussion about him.
Of course, it ultimately ended with Nova Prime's strong suppression, bringing an end to the endlessly bickering meeting.
However, after that, more and more people 'followed' Michael to ensure he wouldn't suddenly disappear, which left Michael somewhat speechless...
Soon, two days passed, and Michael, accompanied by the Hulk, arrived at a particularly magnificent building of the Nova Empire to meet Nova Prime.
As for Samuel Sterns and Abomination, Michael ordered them to hook up, no, to entice, hmm, no, to communicate, yes, to communicate with the many famous Scientist on Xandar!
Don't be fooled by the fact that a massive cosmic battleship was built by just Michael and Samuel Sterns; the hardships on Dr. Blue's side are not for outsiders to know.
Moreover, the stealth and minimal spatial jump fluctuations, which were initially thought to be very effective, were easily detected by the Nova Empire. This indicated that Michael and his group's cosmic battleship technology still had flaws.
Therefore, in addition to having White search and download publicly available interstellar technologies on the Cosmic Star Network, Michael also had White secretly infiltrate various empires, federations, and other places to surreptitiously download more advanced data. At the same time, he also had Samuel Sterns contact his peers, to hook up, ahem, to communicate and recruit as many as possible.
Michael would never think he had too many true Scientist!
Furthermore, Michael also possessed dark soul magic improved by the mutated gem. These Scientist recruited by Samuel Sterns would be an extremely important component of Michael's forces!
"Greetings, Your Excellency Nova Prime!"
Michael still held a glimmer of goodwill for this supreme ruler of the Nova Empire. At least, she hadn't targeted him for some inexplicable reason, right?
"Greetings, King Qi Jun! And greetings, Mr. Hulk!"
Upon their first meeting, Nova Prime's etiquette was impeccable.
It seemed that after Michael demonstrated his ability to 'disappear' at will, she placed him on an equal footing with herself.
"Haha, Nova Prime, no need to be so polite!"
Since Nova Prime was so courteous, Michael wouldn't put on airs either. "Just call me Michael."
"For now, my legion is still in slumber. Although I do have subordinates currently, they are not yet enough to warrant the title of King."
"If Nova Prime doesn't mind, just call me Michael!"
Michael waved his hand, laughing heartily.
In fact, Michael's words were not false.
Although the advanced bio-human manufacturing center on Earth was working hard to produce advanced bio-humans, the Life Foundation's first pseudo-spaceship had not yet launched, and Michael's three million super-powered army indeed had no place to settle. Saying they were in slumber was perfectly accurate!
However, Michael's polite words, heard by Nova Prime and the accompanying personnel, were like a thunderclap!
A sleeping legion? Or rather, this guy really does have a massive army of his own, doesn't he!
