Multiverse of Marvel - Chapter 512: New Earth

Chapter 512: New Earth

“GAIA, have there been any problems recently that the people of Earth have faced as a whole?” John asked.

“Technically, the people of Earth are very happy. They have a much better life, the poor now have access to education and much better health facilities. Thanks to Umbrella, even in poor countries, the med pods have been a huge success. The introduction of Pokemon has led people to be more enthusiastic about knowledge of them which in turn helps them in education purposes. And there is an ample source of clean energy for all, thanks to the solar receptors of Umbrella. Oil has almost become obsolete.” GAIA replied as she recounted all the things that John and his company had brought to earth.

“What about the people that had been working in the oil sector? Have they been given chances in other sectors?” John asked.

“Not all, but 95% of these people have found the same kinds of jobs which are related to the energy sector. The other 5% have moved to Mars to help build a better society there.” GAIA replied.

“That’s good. The economy is stable now. But you mentioned technically, are there any hidden problems?” John asked.

“Not exactly, but now the people feel that Earth has become too small for all to handle and many are already contemplating on leaving Earth and establishing a colony outside the solar system which would be suitable. Due to the massive amount of Pokemons and their habitats, the real estate prices has risen up by 200% making the average person feel suffocated and with no place to live.” GAIA mentioned.

“So we are facing a loss of places to live.” John mumbled.

“Connect me to all the Avengers.”

And soon after a few minutes all the major Avenger members appeared in a translucent screen near John in a row surrounding him.

“It’s been some time since, Avengers.” John said.

“Yeah. You are coming to our wedding right?” Steve was the first to reply.

“Of course. Where will it take place?” John asked.

“New York. Where it all started from me.” Steve replied.

“That’s cool.”

“Hello… We exist.. You call and ignore us… That’s rude.” Tony spoke out.

“You all are invited to the wedding.” Steve paying no heed to the mockery of Tony said.

“We will be there..”

“Who is your best man? Bucky..” Banner asked.

Steve nodded his head.

“Expected..” Victor said.

“Why are we called by the way?” Arthur asked as from the start of the meeting itself they could tell that it wasn’t an emergency. Normally, John was their alarm sounds. When he calls, it is mostly because there is a threat that needs oversight by the Avengers but this time it wasn’t.

“Heard the real estate prices have gone up.” John said.

“Real estate prices? Why? Does Umbrella want to join the real estate market? Heard the prices have gone up significantly. My wife was saying her sister couldn’t find any good and decent place to live on the West Coast.” Clint replied.

“Yeah. I was thinking of seeing a good home to live on Earth. My Avenger salary isn’t enough to cover that. I should be looting my next prisoner..” Natasha said.

“I heard we are facing a lack of land to live in due to the introduction of Pokemons. That’s a sad affair.” Banner said.

“I called you all here to remedy this situation.” John finally said as these people were busy gossiping on the real estate prices.

“Remedy? How?” Wayne asked.

“I will make the Earth much bigger. A big planet like Saturn.” John pitched his idea.

All looked at John for a second. Stunned by what he just said and then burst out laughing. John didn’t expect that his sudden idea would be received as a joke by his friends. He was embarrassed.

“I am being serious, people.” John said.

“Oh yeah, how will you do that? Even if you use Alien X, and change reality there are people living here and how will the people be distributed then? If you make it bigger there would be massive earthquakes. And the most important thing. How will you compensate for the solar system? Any change in mass would change the trajectory of the sun that is rotating the galaxy in a weird angle which might lead to our destruction. It’s a miracle that the introduction of Oa didn’t pose a threat to our system.” Tony said in one breath.

“And that’s why I called you. I want you all to help me plan this situation out. I don’t want people to leave our Earth just because we don’t have space. I will need a team of scientists and a bunch of normal people to help me fix this situation while I change the topography, geography and its size.” John siad.

“Are you serious John? Do you really want to do this?” Clark asked.

“Yes!!”
