## Chapter 449: The Spectators
This magic monocular telescope was a treasured collection from Odin's Vault. The telescope tube was carved from the trunk of a Golden Oak tree.
This type of Golden Oak is a specialty product of Asgard. As these saplings continuously grow, their branches and leaves can constantly absorb ambient magical particles. The grown branches are not only as brilliant as gold but can also be compatible with various magical powers. In scientific terms, this type of trunk is a superconductor for magical particles and also has a certain amplification effect when the user casts spells.
This type of Golden Oak branch has always been the preferred choice for the hilts of Aesir Warrior weapons, axe handles, and various wands.
However, this type of Golden Oak has an extremely slow growth cycle, even slower than Golden Sandalwood on Earth. It only grows ten centimeters thicker every hundred years. It's only because the lifespan of Aesir is relatively long that the situation of "one tree passed down through three generations" hasn't occurred! The base of the monocular telescope tube that Tony Stark was holding with both hands was as thick as his thigh, and its heavy weight forced him to rest the telescope on the railing.
Estimating from the tree's age, Thor should not have been born when this Golden Oak tree was felled.
One must know that Thor is already 1500 years old! Of course, among the relatively common long lifespans of the Aesir, Thor is currently in his prime.
The telescope tube is extremely precious, and the lenses embedded in the tube are naturally of no small origin.
These were a pair of lenses polished from the eyes of a God with Far Sight Ability, personally killed by the Goddess of Death Hela during Odin's conquest of the Nine Realms.
This magic monocular telescope was originally a gift prepared by skilled craftsmen of the Dwarf Race for Odin, commissioned by the Goddess of Death (Hela), to celebrate Odin's coronation as the Lord of the Nine Realms. The meaning was that as far as the eye could see, it would be Asgard's territory.
But unexpectedly, the father and daughter eventually fell apart, and this monocular telescope was sealed away in Odin's Treasury.
When Tony Stark politely asked Odin if he had any weapons that could observe the movements of Thanos' Fleet, King Odin, with a complex expression, ordered someone to retrieve this magic monocular telescope from the Treasury.
Tony Stark didn't understand the grievances between the Asgardian God King and his daughter, but this magic monocular telescope was truly impressive.
Through this telescope, he could even clearly see the scenes of the Earth Alliance battling those Aliens on the surface of Titan!
Three full days had passed since the start of the war, and the enemies the Earth Alliance faced had changed four times.
From the initial Faceless Ones bio-weapons to the swarming insectoid hordes, and then to those strange races with six arms and two heads.
Now, the ones attacking the Earth Alliance are a humanoid Alien Race fully armed and completely wrapped in black sealed armor.
From Tony Stark's perspective, he watched with his own eyes as the lower bays of dozens of Alien Fleet warships near Titan opened, and small transport ships continuously flew out from the bays.
These transport ships continuously ferried teams of Soldiers covered in black Armor and Battle Vehicles to the Ground of Titan. On the Earth Alliance side, under the heavy energy cannon fire from the enemy Shuttles, the heavy weapons units didn't dare expose themselves and could only watch helplessly as these enemies assembled in an orderly manner.
A Rocket Brigade from Russia wanted to catch these Aliens off guard while they were assembling. However, the rockets they fired were directly intercepted by the enemy Shuttle's energy autocannons.
Instead, the exposed Rocket Brigade was immediately subjected to a dense artillery barrage from the enemy Shuttles. A distance of less than nine kilometers was mere seconds away for these Shuttles capable of operating in the complex environment of Outer Space.
Perhaps having learned from the lessons of those unlucky Space Fighters, these Shuttles had no intention of descending. They immediately unleashed a dense barrage of fire on the Russian Rocket Force Brigade from High Altitude.
In less than ten minutes, Russia's Rocket Force Brigade was wiped out.
Learning from Russia's experience, the various Earth Alliance Command Posts quickly issued orders, and all heavy weapons units went silent, waiting for their chance.
Even the units originally positioned in the trenches withdrew to the nearest Bunker tunnels. Hundreds of thousands of Chinese engineers from the Earth Federation, cooperating with construction crews and millions of workers from various countries, along with over two million Soldiers, had dug out a vast network of underground tunnels beneath Titan's surface. This network, reaching depths of hundreds of kilometers, spanned over a dozen Allied Forces Defense Lines.
It was precisely this dense, crisscrossing underground network that allowed the Earth Alliance forces to maneuver within them and withstand the enemy's bombardment for three full days.
Soon, this unknown Alien Civilization assembled tens of thousands of Soldiers and over a thousand Heavy Armored Vehicles on the surface of Titan and launched an Attack on the Earth Alliance positions.
The eerily green trunk of Yggdrasil hung high in the Sky, and its green light shone upon these robot-like Alien Military units, filling them with an unsettling stillness.
Tony Stark stood on the observation deck of the Golden Palace, watching intently as this Alien Military unit prepared to launch an Attack on the Earth Alliance. He didn't even notice Bruce Wayne walking up beside him.
It wasn't until Bruce Wayne patted his Shoulder that Tony startled, nearly dropping the telescope in his hand.
"You look nervous!" Bruce Wayne walked to the edge of the observation deck, looked at the magnificent Yggdrasil in the distance, and turned to look at Tony Stark.
"Nervous? Me? I've seen worse," Tony Stark retorted stubbornly. "We're the team that killed Thanos once!"
True enough, but Bruce Wayne sharply sensed the worry in Tony Stark's expression.
Bruce Wayne changed the subject, not pressing the point, and instead asked, puzzled, "How were you so sure their fleet wouldn't just glass the planet? And you were right."
Tony Stark held the monocular telescope steady, scanning the distance, answering calmly, "We have a teammate, Thanos' adopted daughter. She grew up with him and knows his complicated feelings about Titan. His subordinate Alien Coalition Forces wouldn't dare bombard the planet without his direct order."
Through the monocular telescope, Tony Stark clearly saw the Aliens beginning their Attack on the Earth Alliance positions.
Dense streams of high-energy particle beams shot from the muzzles of the Alien Soldiers' weapons. Two thousand meters away, the heads of over thirty scout Soldiers exploded with a sickening boom, spraying bright red blood onto their Comrade-in-arms.
The energy beams didn't just blow apart heads; they tore through the bodies of Soldiers standing nearby. Their thick body armor and flesh were no match for the alien weaponry. Dozens of Soldiers were cut in half at the waist.
"Rat-a-tat-tat-tat—"
