After taking out all of the present Hand ninjas, Shang-Chi challenges the Gorgon. Shang-Chi has done his homework and, knowing the Gorgon's gaze can turn a man to stone, extinguishes all the torches with a clap of his hands to cover their fight with darkness. The Gorgon counters by setting the temple ablaze, arguing that it can be restored but Shang Chi can not. Shang fights well, using the weapons he received from Tony Stark and turning the Gorgon's attacks against him. Shang Chi also draws on the attributes from some noble warriors that have come before him. However, just as the warriors that preceded him eventually fell, the same happens to Shang with the Gorgon getting the upper hand and beating him. The Gorgon praises Shang Chi, saying he fought valiantly but it was not enough. Gorgon then throws Shang-Chi from the edge of Madripoor. Hawkeye, Nightmask, Spider-Woman, and Star Brand are exploring their surroundings in Velletai trying to ascertain where they are. Nightmask is concerned for Star Brand and the voices he is hearing. Spider-Woman and Hawkeye are just concerned that Star Brand is cracking up. Suddenly, dark beings rise out of the nearby "river" and start attacking. The Avengers defend themselves, but Star Brand is distracted by a voice calling his name. It's his former classmate Kelly Overton. He chases after her but finds himself back in his old high school. Back on S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier Iliad, Bruce Banner is criticizing Steve Rogers. There are so many Avengers and none of them are magical.

After discovering the Avengers team is trapped in a city of the dead, he recommends a plane be sent for him. He explains that cities of the dead are spirit traps built by the Cult of Entropy where lost tormented souls gather and are unable to move on to the next realm.
