The people at the scene exchanged glances, and no one raised any objections. Option C was also not particularly controversial and was temporarily eliminated.
Now only option D remained. As long as option D was screened, the answer to this question could be said to be revealed.
"Spider-Man Peter Parker accidentally destroyed an entire cruise ship? This matter is a bit complicated."
Nick Fury focused his one good eye on the last option. "There are many people on the cruise ship, and there are likely many people of high status."
"Considering that the question says 'destroyed' the cruise ship, in my understanding, this cruise ship should have sunk to the bottom of the sea."
"In the worst-case scenario, everyone on the cruise ship perished."
"Of course, the situation may not be that bad, but since it's an analytical question, we might as well analyze it from the worst possible angle."
"Peter Parker, what has this kid been up to?" Tony Stark slightly rubbed his forehead, as if an old father was annoyed with his troublesome child. "He causes so much trouble, doesn't he?"
Destroy a cruise ship?
That ability to cause trouble is truly extraordinary.
If something like that actually happened, it would undoubtedly be enough to ignite public opinion.
And cruise ships are also quite special; after all, they're out on the vast ocean, which makes rescue extremely difficult.
Whether it's helicopters or other rescue boats, the efficiency is extremely limited.
Rescue boats are too slow; unless there are other ships nearby, the situation could be dire by the time help arrives.
The Titanic is a living example.
Helicopters are faster, but how many people can a helicopter save? The question states that the entire ship was destroyed!
The possibility of a large number of deaths in this situation is very high.
"Everyone, if this really happens, igniting international public opinion and having the United Nations issue regulatory agreements is indeed reasonable."
"And we know nothing about the events described in the options, so we can't determine when it happened like in option C."
Captain America glanced at everyone and spoke in a low voice, "So option D can't be ruled out for now."
"No, I think option D can be ruled out as well." Tony Stark, after some thought, gave the opposite opinion.
"Peter Parker appeared during the Civil War, everyone must still remember, right? At that time, the Sokovia Accords had already been issued."
"And at that time, no one knew Peter Parker…"
"That's right! Stark, you've hit the nail on the head!" Black Widow nodded on the side, taking over Tony Stark's words, "If Peter Parker had really done something so 'explosive' before that, everyone shouldn't not know him!"
"Sounds reasonable!" Hawkeye Barton also agreed, "If this really led to the Sokovia Accords being issued, then it must have first ignited public opinion. There should be news everywhere, like television news, online media, and social platforms."
"So the question is… unless the superheroes who participated in the Civil War were living in a primitive society, not going online or watching the news, it's impossible not to know Peter Parker."
"There's another possibility," Nick Fury chimed in. "Peter Parker did destroy the cruise ship, but it wasn't as serious as it seems."
"We're just assuming the worst, but the situation might not be that bad."
"Perhaps there was no one important on the ship, or perhaps someone big quickly suppressed the matter."
"It's also possible that everyone on the ship was rescued, and so on and so forth. In short, the whole thing just passed without causing a public uproar."
"So… that's why everyone didn't know Peter Parker during the Civil War."
"Since it didn't cause a public uproar, it naturally wouldn't have led to the Sokovia Accords."
In short, the bottom line is that either everyone didn't know Peter Parker during the Civil War, or the destruction of the cruise ship by Peter Parker happened after the Civil War.
Or, the destruction of the cruise ship by Peter Parker didn't cause a public uproar.
Regardless of the situation, it wouldn't have led to the Sokovia Accords.
After everyone's analysis, option D was also eliminated, and with even more certainty than the other two options.
The reasoning for eliminating option D was indeed more compelling.
"Natasha, what are you waiting for?" Hawkeye Barton couldn't help but glance at Black Widow.
Everyone else present had already finished the second round of answering, leaving only Black Widow. This question was naturally for her to answer.
"I choose A, Sokovia was destroyed!" Black Widow confidently stated her answer to the large screen.
Options B, C, and D all had various flaws and inconsistencies, so naturally, the answer was A.
[Incorrect Answer!]
But the smile on Black Widow's face faltered for a moment, and the others present were equally surprised.
This question was actually wrong?
The answer wasn't A?
[The answerer, Natasha Romanoff, will have her foreign language proficiency skill erased, effective immediately!]
Whoosh, and Black Widow completely forgot the foreign languages she had painstakingly learned.
It's worth mentioning that the skills erased by the quiz system weren't permanent, whether it was shooting skills, driving skills, combat skills, and so on.
All of them could be retrained.
Of course, once your lifespan was gone, it was gone; that was irreversible.
"If the answer isn't A, then... we can only choose between B or C, right?"
Not a newbie anymore, Black Widow wasn't fazed by having a skill taken away; she glanced at everyone and said calmly.
Of the three options they'd excluded earlier, only Spider-Man's was the most solid, backed by the reactions of everyone during the Civil War.
It shouldn't be a problem.
But B and C were just pure speculation from everyone, so next, they naturally had to choose between B and C.
Was it the one where eleven Wakandan citizens were blown up, or the one where the Hulk rampaged in the city center?
"I think B is more likely," Captain America said, pondering aloud, giving his opinion first. "We don't know who the eleven Wakandan citizens were, but what if some of them were important people?"
"For example… high-ranking national leaders, discussing state affairs."
If one important person died, it wouldn't be enough to attract international attention, but what if a whole group of them died?
The question doesn't specify the identities of those eleven people, which leaves a lot of room for interpretation in option B.
"And in option C, we can see that Scarlet Witch fought alongside me during the Civil War."
"This indicates that Scarlet Witch was always a friend of the Avengers, even after the Sokovia Accords were signed."
"Everyone saw the Civil War footage. She's familiar with Barton, me, Stark, and Romanoff."
"In other words, before the Battle of Sokovia, Scarlet Witch was already my friend. During the battle, she fought against Ultron with the Avengers, and after the accords were signed, she was still everyone's friend."
"So I think the incident where Scarlet Witch disrupted Dr. Banner's mind wouldn't have happened during this period."
"It's highly likely that it happened when Scarlet Witch was with Ultron, when she was an enemy of the Avengers, and disrupted the minds of many people."
Everyone considered Captain America's words and found them reasonable, with no one raising any objections. The logic involved wasn't complicated, and it was easy to understand once you thought it through.
"So it looks like the answer to this question is actually B, eleven Wakandan citizens died." Nick Fury nodded, making a final decision.
Then Nick Fury glanced at everyone, "The second round of questions is over, so who's going to answer next?"
"Silver Blade? The reward looks like it suits my tastes. I wonder if I could answer this question?"
Loki, who had been watching the excitement from the side and hadn't said much, suddenly volunteered.
Everyone at the scene immediately began communicating with their eyes.
If they hadn't seen the video of Loki cutting off Thor's arm, they definitely wouldn't have given this opportunity to Loki.
Although they didn't know what the Silver Blade was, it was obvious that it was a weapon that could directly enhance Loki's strength.
But after watching that video, everyone's attitude towards Loki had changed drastically.
From his very nature, Loki wasn't truly a villain. Quite the opposite, deep down he actually cherished truth, goodness, and beauty.
"I don't care either way," Tony Stark said, shrugging and speaking first. "I'm not interested in this Silver Blade thing."
Following Tony Stark, Nick Fury, Black Widow, Hawkeye Barton, and Captain America all indicated that Loki could have it.
After all, none of them used "blade"-type weapons.
They reached a consensus this way.
"Then I won't be polite."
Loki's lips curved into a smile as he gave his answer on the big screen, "I choose B, eleven people died."
[Correct Answer!]
Excluding the Battle of Sokovia, everyone really did make the right choice.
[Congratulations to quiz-taker Loki Odinson for receiving a Silver Blade!]
[Reward has been issued, please check your inventory!]
With the system's prompt, a dagger shimmering with a silver luster, with a very exquisite and streamlined shape, appeared in Loki's hands.
Although everyone didn't know the specific information about the dagger, just a glance was enough to know that this thing was definitely not simple.
"Dark Matter Silver? Godslayer Weapon?"
A corresponding set of information subsequently appeared in Loki's mind, and Loki couldn't help but reveal an extremely satisfied smile.
This Silver Blade could easily cut through the divine body of a god from another world! Even if it was only the first or second generation of divine bodies, it was still a divine body! This thing wasn't just for show, it was a genuine Godslayer Weapon.
Of course, they weren't from the same world, so Loki didn't know how his godhood compared to the first and second generation god bodies of that other world.
But no matter what, since he was a god, he certainly wouldn't be weak. Regardless of how he compared to himself, the Silver Blade could be used to deal with gods, so there shouldn't be any problem.
That was just one thing.
Another thing that made Loki even more delighted was that the Silver Blade wasn't just an ordinary weapon; it could also be compatible with Loki's divine power!
In other words, it could be enchanted!
As long as Loki practiced diligently, he could eventually control the Silver Blade from a distance and use it to injure others!
The key was that it was incredibly fast, super, super fast.
It was simply a super deadly weapon.
"I think we made a wrong decision," Tony Stark said, shrugging his shoulders as he saw Loki's satisfied expression. "This is definitely a very powerful dagger."
"Iron Man, you're right, but… you're also wrong."
Loki put away the dagger and said to Tony Stark, "This dagger in your hands is a sharp dagger, nothing more. But in my hands, it's a divine weapon."
"I am the one who made it a divine weapon!"
"A divine weapon like Thor's hammer?" Tony Stark's words shut Loki up.
Even if the Silver Blade was powerful, it couldn't compare to Mjolnir, okay?
It was just much stronger than Loki's current dagger, that was true.
And that was enough.
[Answer complete, now playing the answer analysis!]
As usual, shortly after the quiz concluded, the system began playing the corresponding video.
First appearing before everyone was a bustling street.
A girl in casual clothes, wearing a hat, was sitting at a small stall drinking coffee.
It was Scarlet Witch.
"What do you see?" A voice sounded in the communication channel, it was Captain America's voice.
"Ordinary patrol officers." Scarlet Witch replied while drinking coffee, "Small police station, quiet street."
"A good target!" Black Widow's voice also sounded in the communication channel.
Then came Captain America. He was standing in a room, observing while saying, "There's an ATM in the south corner, which means..."
"Cameras!" Scarlet Witch interjected.
"Both streets are one-way."
"Not exactly an ideal escape route."
"So, our target doesn't care about exposure and doesn't care about creating chaos while escaping."
And as Captain America and Scarlet Witch communicated, the figures of Black Widow, Sam Wilson, and others also appeared.
This was clearly an operation to capture Crossbones, Brock Rumlow!
It was obvious that at this point, Scarlet Witch was likely already a member of the Avengers.
It has to be said, Scarlet Witch's relationship with the Avengers is quite interesting.
She started out with Hydra, teaming up with Ultron to fight the Avengers. Later, she helped Captain America multiple times, and eventually, she simply became one of Captain America's team.
Everyone watching on the screen already knew what they thought of Scarlet Witch.
