Chereads / Journey Of Ben Tennyson / Chapter 11 - The Mysterious Fallen Guy

Chapter 11 - The Mysterious Fallen Guy

The Upgrade TV focused on the events of 1992, Ben found a hidden nation, Wakanda. A nation veiled in secrecy and shrouded in mystery. In Oakland, California, the Black Panther, T'Chaka, sought to thwart the nefarious arms dealer Ulysses Klaue from stealing vibranium, a precious resource of Wakanda.

With the power of the Upgrade TV, he saw Wakanda's breathtaking landscapes and technological wonders.

Wakanda was full of jungles, with unique flora and fauna. Rivers and waterfalls cascaded through majestic mountains and cliffs, providing not only visual splendor but also strategic defense for this secluded nation.

The Heart-Shaped Herb, grown in a pristine garden, bestowed the extraordinary abilities of the Black Panther, after taking it by Wakanda's kings.

Vibranium, a rare extraterrestrial metal that surrounded Wakanda's Great Mound, the source of the nation's wealth and technological advancements. And in the Golden City, Wakanda's capital, there was a fusion of traditional African influences and cutting-edge technology.

Guarding these invaluable resources were the Dora Milaje, Wakanda's elite all-female warrior group.

"Truly beautiful and advanced. Vibranium has empowered them with not just advanced weapons but also the formidable Black Panther suit," Ben commented, with his admiration for Wakanda.

As the Upgrade TV seamlessly shifted its focus, it showed the story of Xu Wenwu, a skilled warrior who discovered the formidable Ten Rings, artifacts imbued with immense power and immortality.

Witnessing the rise of the Ten Rings organization, Ben couldn't help but acknowledge the remarkable fortune that had befallen Xu Wenwu.

In 1996, Wenwu's path intertwined with Jiang Li, a guardian of the mythical village of Ta Lo. Their union gave rise to Shang-Chi and Xialing, their son and daughter.

Ben directed the Upgrade TV's attention to Ta Lo, the Hidden Village nestled within lush and vibrant landscapes. The surroundings were the ancient forests, cascading waterfalls, and diverse flora.

Ben observed the carvings and symbols on the buildings, it was confirmed the village's have deep connection to magic.

Ta Lo was not only home to humans but also housed mythical creatures, including guardian lions known as "Liong Shi." The village was even guarded by a massive water-dwelling dragon, referred to as The Great Protector.

The entrance to Ta Lo was secured by mystical gates, each imbued with magical properties for the village's defenses.

Within the village, inhabitants engaged in rigorous training in martial arts and mystical arts. They were always guarding the world from the threat of the Dweller-in-Darkness.

"Truly a beautiful place, and its people are trained to save the world. Impressive," Ben acknowledged, recognizing the significance of Ta Lo and its inhabitants.

Now Ben was focused on searching all the history and supernatural activity on the earth, Amelia was amazed seeing this.

"Ben, how can you find this, and why are you focused on these things?" Amelia asked.

"Since I am going to become your husband, I will reveal a secret about me," Ben said, as he started explaining how he was from a different Universe, and why he came to this Universe, he also explained a little bit of his powers.

Amelia was amazed by knowing this, but she is also happy that Ben didn't hide it from her. Because many couples even hid the little secret about them, and Ben openly explained the biggest mystery of his life.

"Ben, I also have a secret, but I will reveal it at our wedding," Sophia said.

"Ok," Ben nodded, he was not so curious about Amelia's secret, and since she will tell it at her wedding, then he will wait for her.

He again immersed himself in the search for historical and supernatural events unfolding on Earth, while living a blissful life with his girlfriend Amelia.

Their time together had deepened their connection, and they found solace in the tranquility and romance in their Crown Haven Villa.

As time passed, one extra thing also happened. It was about Mariam's William. While Ben and Amelia were touring the whole over earth with Mariam. She was bold and took Ben's Dragon in her mouth. While drinking, she cleans even a little bit of Dragon Tonic from Ben's Dragon.

But from three months, she had become shy, and whenever she saw Ben, she ran away from him. Ben was confused, why she was doing this, he didn't understand. But Amelia gave a knowing smile to Mariam, but she didn't reveal it to Ben.

While Ben and Amelia were immersed in their pleasure, they were interrupted by an alert of the Upgrade TV. It opens the display and shows the news conference of Tony Stark. Although it was not a supernatural event, from when Ben found Tony Stark has made an Iron Armor for himself, he has also set his news in the priority list.

And he found he was right, because from his own eyes, he has seen how Stark makes a good Iron Armor for himself, just in these three months he upgraded his suit.

But there is also bad news, his own uncle was the main problem of his life, even the kidnapping of Tony was arranged by this, and just a few days ago, both of them fought with each other in Iron Suit, and it amazed the many people of New York.

News Reporter Christine Everhart: "Ladies and gentlemen, there is an announcement coming straight from Tony Stark and Stark Industries."

The screen then transitioned to an interview moment, one etched in history as Tony Stark standing before an audience, declaring with unwavering certainty, "Yes, I am Iron Man."

The revelation echoed through the word.

The Upgrade TV continued to broadcast the aftermath of Tony Stark's bold admission, the declaration "I am Iron Man." has resonated all over the world.

While Ben and Amelia were still watching the scene of Tony's declaration. The Upgrade TV changed the scene of another place.

In the Arctic, Nick Fury and his S.H.I.E.L.D agents uncovered an old, frozen aircraft, revealing the long-lost Captain America, Steve Rogers, who had been in a frozen slumber for 70 years.

Before they could comment on this, the Upgrade TV issued another alert, transporting them to the streets of Harlem, a neighborhood in Upper Manhattan. There shows a fight going between two colossal beings—the green Hulk and the formidable Abomination.

"Blonsky, transformed into Abomination, is going head-to-head with Bruce Banner in his Hulk form," the News Reporter announced, narrating the epic clash between these behemoths.

Hulk emerged victorious, delivering a powerful blow to Abomination before leaping away from the chaos in New York.

"He was a good scientist named Bruce Banner, working for an American agency. But then an accident happened, involving a chemical blast that transformed him into the Hulk. In his Hulk form, he's incredibly powerful but often uncontrollable," Ben said looking at the Hulk.

While Ben was still busy searching for the events of all the history.

But unknown to Ben, the three headed big entity, who was sitting on his throne in the middle of Marvel Multiverse. Looking over all of the Marvel Multiverse, still searching the energy signature of other Multiverse, different from the Marvel Multiverse.

"Sir, till now I didn't find the different Universe energy signatures in many Marvel Multiverse." The three headed person said to another person, the other person only his big head was projecting. His face was also filled with cosmic lights.

"Keep searching," The cosmic entity said before vanishing from there. While the Three Headed Person still becomes busy in searching for the signature of another Universe.

As Ben continued to relish his peaceful and romantic life with Amelia, his pursuit of supernatural events on Earth persisted. An alert from Upgrade TV brought a scene in London, where two extraordinary girls worked in a museum—one with black hair named Sersi and the other with orange hair named Sprite.

Upgrade TV unraveled their mysterious existence; they were Eternals, created by the powerful cosmic entities known as Celestials. Living on Earth for thousands of years, Sersi possessed the ability to transform non-living things, demonstrated by turning a bus into flower petals. Sprite, on the other hand, has the power to create illusions.

"So, they're Eternals created by Celestials, living on Earth for millennia," Ben grasped the essence and instructed the Upgrade TV to focus on the other members.

The scene shifted to Australia, revealing a man named Ikaris with the power of flight and energy blasts from his eyes.

Next, it was a blonde girl named Thena and a muscular man named Gilgamesh. Thena has the power to create the cosmic weapon known as "Godkiller," while Gilgamesh was the kindest among the Eternals, showcased unmatched strength.

The Upgrade TV delved into the life of Druig, an Eternal residing in the Peruvian Amazonia, leading a community under his mind control powers. Phastos, another Eternal, the maker of tools.

"Phastos, helping humans develop weapons," Ben noted, as the Upgrade TV showed about Kingo, who was hidden as the Bollywood actor in India. He could shoot cosmic energy projectiles from his hands.

Finally, the scene transitioned to the Dome, the spaceship of the Eternals, concealed even from eyes. Inside, Makkari, the fastest Eternal, and Ajak, the spiritual leader with healing and communication abilities, were revealed.

After a thorough exploration, Ben discovered that the Eternals had been safeguarding humanity from Deviants for the past 7,000 years.

Ben and Amelia become busy in their daily lives. And from time to time, Ben also found some of the secrets and mysteries on the Earth, which already happened.

On a particular day, he was busy upgrading some of the equipment of his house. Although, he already has the Upgrade TV, which can show all of the events happening in the world.

Still, he was upgrading all of the other systems, like the security, and other things, which can give benefits in emergency time.

"Ben, what are you going to do now? Since we have already travelled over the world. What will be your next plan, because I am really getting bored." Amelia said, while her face expressed her bored 🥱 experience.

Ben was going to reply to her, but before he do, their conversation was interrupted by the warning of Upgrade TV.

"Warning, Warning, an unknown thing is coming to Earth."

The Upgrade TV screen displayed the scene of New York. A chaos was happening there, thunder was cracking, and a tornado appeared there. In the middle of the tornado, there was something like a light opening.

Ben activated the power of XLR8, "I'm going to check what is happening there?" He said to Amelia.

"Ok, but please be safe," Amelia nodded. And with his XLR8 speed, it didn't take even a minute for Ben to reach there.

When Ben arrived at the scene, he noticed a tall and imposing figure fell from in the middle of Tornado, landing with a resounding thud. But the most amazing thing is, even after falling from such a height, he stood up and was alive.

However, before anyone could fully comprehend the situation, a van struck the fallen figure. And before the people focus on the fallen figure, their focus is shifted to another thing.

Simultaneously, a mysterious hammer also fell there with a booming voice. And it brings everyone focus on it. The people didn't know how this hammer appeared there, because they had not seen any mysterious things, so they started analysing it, by their own experience.

From the middle of the crowd, a guy came out. He reached near the place where the mysterious hammer stuck on the ground. Its metallic surface was still shining, that's even the pollution, which appeared there and the dust which were blowing, didn't land on it.

"Let me see, what is the mystery?" The guy said, and then he grabbed the hammer with his arms and tried to lift it. But he was unable to do it. He then used his full strength, and again lifted it, but he was not able to move the mysterious hammer, even a bit.

Their initial shock transformed into curiosity. People started to try to lift the hammer, only to be met with failure.

The futile attempts turned into a determined competition, with laughter and good-natured taunts filling the air.

A man named Pete, who was known for his strength in the neighborhood, flexed his muscles and strained to lift Mjolnir, only to meet with the hammer's unyielding resistance.

"Come on, Pete! You've got this!" his friends cheered, adding to the jovial atmosphere.

In a nearby group, a teenager named Sarah made her attempt, her eyes filled with determination. With a grunt, she exerted all her strength, but Mjölnir refused to budge.

Her friend John, in the spirit of friendly competition, teased, "Looks like the hammer isn't ready to admit defeat today!"

In the midst of the lively attempts to lift the hammer, unbeknownst to the curious crowd, the fallen figure was loaded into the same van that had collided with him earlier.
