Vol 2 Chapter 731: Thanos is coming!
At this moment.
New York, Midtown Manhattan, Baxter Building.
The invisible woman Susan did not follow her fiancé to the Ravencraft Building. She chose to garrison the base. On the one hand, they needed Susan to operate the teleport machine just now. Important resources need to be guarded.
The Infinity Stones - the azure blue space gems, now stored in the Baxter Building in the form of a cosmic cube, powering Reed's teleportation machine.
Goofy once instructed the Fantastic Four that even if the Baxter Building is razed to the ground, they must protect the safety of the Rubik's Cube, because this Infinity Stone contains infinite energy that is enough to paralyze the entire universe!
Invisible woman Susan Storm of course knows that her job is extremely important. Although she works here every day, she has never slack off.
After sending the Fantastic Three and Iron Man away, Susan went to the compound eye to observe the current battle situation. The compound eye showed that the energy radiation from the three strange superpowers in the Ravencraft prison area had expanded to varying degrees. It means that they are starting to enter a state of hardship.
Suddenly, Susan saw a strange connection between the energy flow of one of the aliens and that of Johnny Storm, as if the two were converging with each other.
"Oops, Johnny!" Susan couldn't help but start worrying about her silly brother. "What's wrong with him? Is he being controlled by aliens?"
But soon his fiancé, Mr. Fantastic Reed Richards, rushed in Johnny's direction and weakened the connection between the alien and Johnny.
"Great, Reed, that's it, go and help Johnny..." Although Susan was not there, she was even more nervous than when she was there.
However, at this moment, a brand new unknown superhuman appeared within the monitoring range of the compound eye. The energy flow of this superhuman body was very powerful, even exceeding the sum of the energy flows of the previous three aliens. The psychic quickly approached the Baxter Building, arriving here almost before the compound eye issued a warning.
At this time, Susan Storm was worried about the safety of her own brother, but ignored her own safety. She did not notice the sudden appearance of the superpower on the compound eye monitor until the compound eye gave an alarm.
"Drip drip drip..."
The compound eye finally screamed wildly, which startled Susan.
"Oh, compound eye, what's the matter with you? What happened?"
Susan turned to look at the monitoring screen of the compound eye, and suddenly saw a huge light spot - it was a life form whose energy flow was so powerful that it was almost terrifying, and his energy flow even reached the level of flying high!
"Who is this... Who is this? An unfamiliar energy flow body, a superhuman who has never registered... Is a new alien invader coming?" Susan whispered nervously.
Suddenly, a deep voice behind her answered.
"Oh, I don't think I'm an aggressor, dear lady, I'm just a... er... ecologist."
Susan turned her head back in horror, and then she saw a terrifying giant covered in purple!
The giant was nearly three meters tall, and his head was already close to the ceiling in the laboratory of Baxter Building.
He stepped in Susan's direction. Although he didn't show obvious murderous intent or aggression, Susan could also guess that he had bad intentions.
"Who are you? Who are you?!" Susan asked, trembling.
"I said, I'm an ecologist... you can call me... Thanos," the purple giant smiled.
"Ecologist? So what do you study? The habitats of creatures on various planets?" Susan involuntarily took a few steps back and asked in a low voice.
The purple giant Thanos patiently answered Susan's question: "No, I don't study habitats, my research is more ambitious - I study how the balance of life is balanced and how the universe can develop sustainably..."
"So...how does the balance of life balance? How does the universe maintain a sustainable development?" Susan asked after deliberately delaying time, squeezing out a smile.
Thanos smiled lightly, stepped forward at the same time, forced Susan into the corner, and said in a low voice, "I'm in a hurry this time, so... I won't explain it to you for the time being!"
After that, he stretched out his hand in Susan's direction. Susan realized the danger and quickly activated the ability to enter the invisible state.
Whoosh!
The invisible woman was completely invisible and disappeared directly in front of Thanos.
But Thanos was not surprised, but turned and walked towards the compound eye monitor.
"This machine...was invented by you to monitor the appearance of abnormal creatures?" Thanos said calmly, "I just happened to hear you talking to yourself, as if it could monitor the flow of energy in the body of living creatures..."
Having said this, Thanos glanced at the display of the compound eye monitor, and then sneered at the corner of his mouth,
"Beautiful lady, although you have the ability to be invisible, and this ability is really eye-catching, but unfortunately, your own instrument has captured yourself, even if you can be invisible, you can't hide it. Your own body's energy flows."
After all, Thanos stretched out his hand and grabbed it from the air, directly grabbing the neck of Susan who was invisible.
"Well!"
Susan never dreamed that she would be defeated by compound eyes, and she never thought that the enemy this time was so cunning!
"let me go!"
The Invisible Woman struggled desperately, her legs kicking constantly in the air, and after ten seconds, poor Susan returned to her normal state because she was on the verge of suffocation.
In extreme hypoxia, she could no longer remain invisible.
Thanos sneered and looked at Susan, and said slowly: "Goofy thought I went to bloodbath Nidavi, and the other superheroes on Earth thought I was the Ebony who rescued me from Ravencraft Prison. Throat, but there's only one thing I'm really interested in, and that's the Infinity Stones..."
"Beautiful lady, you happen to have an Infinity Stone here, right? Trust me, I don't want to kill, I don't like killing, really, so as long as you hand over the Infinity Stone, I'll let you live ,How about it?"
Susan shook her head desperately, knowing that no matter whether the alien in front of her was an "ecologist" or not, she would never let him get the Infinity Stones.
But she soon found herself powerless to stop all this, as Thanos was walking towards the teleport machine in the Baxter Building laboratory.
————
the other side.
Suburbs of Queens, New York.
Inside Ravencraft Prison.
Obsidian will be having fun with Fantastic Three + Iron Man.
General Deathblade has always been very confident in his own strength, but he encountered a stone man who was stronger and immune to physical attacks. The two fought for several rounds and smashed two office buildings, but the result was that General Deathblade ate Unfortunately, he was hit with bruises all over his body.
Proxima Dark Night did not have any upper hand in the battle with Iron Man. The moves and routines of Iron Man's suits emerged one after another, suppressing Proxima Dark Night, which could only rely on simple energy radiation to cause damage.
Only the superstar who is good at mind control barely has an advantage, controlling Johnny the Human Torch in the Fantastic Three, but her advantage is also fleeting, because Mr. Fantastic Reed has his eye on her.
Reed woke up Johnny with a few slaps, and quickly rushed towards the supergiant. The supergiant was no longer able to deal with another person under the control of the Human Torch, and Johnny was using his power at this time. Her willpower against the superstar's control leaves her in a dilemma.
Once Reed attacks her, her control over Johnny collapses in an instant.
And at this moment, for the three generals of Obsidian, another bad news came - I saw a golden circle slowly appear not far away, and then four figures walked out of the circle.
The person in the lead was holding a long spear and had a burly stature. It was Gao Fei, the patron saint of the Nine Realms, the slayer of the black dwarf, and the father of the gods.
On the left and right of him stood two strong men: Heimdall of Asgard and Thor, the **** of thunder.
At the end of the team, followed by an absent-minded fish fishing professional - the evil **** Loki.
Four people descended directly to Ravencraft Prison, and went straight to the third general of Obsidian.
Seeing their return in time, Tony Stark smiled and said to Proxima Dark Night: "Ah, you're out of luck."
"What?" Proxima Dark Night hadn't reacted yet. He turned around and was about to look at Gao Fei. Gao Fei raised his hand and shot, and Gangnir brought Asgard's divine power directly towards Proxima Dark Night.
Booooom! !
Proxima Dark Night didn't even have a chance to react, and was instantly smashed into slag. Her body completely disappeared in the light of Gungnir, turning into black dust in the sky.
"Oops..." Gao Fei shrugged apologetically, "I seem to have shot too hard, I should have left a living, my fault, my fault..."
Not far away, General Dead Blade saw his old lover being killed by a blow, and his eyes suddenly turned red.
"You **** earthling! I killed you!!"
The cold light flashed, and General Deathblade rushed towards Gao Fei like a black shadow, but Gao Fei was not in a hurry, and raised his hand to shoot again.
Booom! !
Asgard's divine power rolled up the wind and swept towards the dead blade general. After hitting the dead blade general's body, it directly exploded him to pieces. Although Gao Fei restrained his strength this time, it gathered the divine power of the entire nine realms. How powerful? The thin body of General Deathblade could not bear it at all.
Although General Dead Blade was not directly smashed into scum this time, his body was also torn apart. Under the light of Gungnir, he turned into a pool of rotten flesh and fell to the ground.
"It seems that it's still too heavy..." Gao Fei couldn't help but blame himself, "It's really troublesome, it's not good to look too strong, even if you want to give the enemy a chance to reform, the Heavenly Father level powerhouse still doesn't work. It's a real headache."
Finally, Goofy turned to look at the superstar next to her, she was already the only survivor of Obsidian Generals.
"This time I have to leave a living room, or else I, the father of the gods, will fail too much."
When the superstar saw Gao Fei's thunder method, he was trembling with fright.
"You don't come here...you don't come here..."
Gao Fei waved his hand lightly and stored Gungnir back in Asgard's treasury, then sneered and said to the superstar: "Naive guy, of course I'm going to pass, I won't go to how to subdue you. What? Hehehe..."
After finishing speaking, Gao Fei had already arrived in front of the superstar, and shot her directly in the face.
Uh...a "all-out punch".
Boooom!
The skill didn't trigger, and the superstar didn't faint. She just collapsed the bridge of her nose and blood flowed out.
Gao Fei grabbed her by the neck and lifted her up, then asked in a deep voice, "Where is Thanos? What is the purpose of your coming to Earth?"
The superstar was quite stubborn, sneered twice and didn't speak.
Gao Fei's hand gripping her neck tightened again, and asked in a deep voice, "I ask you, where is Thanos, and what is the purpose of your coming to Earth?"
The corners of the superstar's mouth rose, and he would rather die than give in: "Even if I die... I won't tell you!"
Gao Fei pouted depressedly: "Then you die."
After saying that, he strangled the superstar's neck with force.
Demo... Really think I need your information?
I am a man who has seen Marvel movies!
Can I not know what Thanos has in mind?
Isn't it just for the Infinity Stones?
Besides, I still have Heimdall here, and he can see the whereabouts of Thanos at any time!
Do you think I can't find Thanos if you don't tell me? childish!
At this time, Heimdall came over in time and said, "Father of the gods, Thanos is now in Baxter Building. He has plundered the Rubik's Cube, and the invisible woman Susan is in danger."
"Understood!" Gao Fei said solemnly, "Let me meet him!"
After talking about opening the space magic, Gao Fei waved to the crowd: "Follow me, there is an alien who has not been captured!"
Everyone followed Goofy into the aperture, directly from Ravencraft Prison to Baxter Building.
However, after they came out, everyone found that the Baxter Building was in a mess, and the invisible female Susan fell to the ground and panted in pain.
"Huh...huh..."
There was a pool of blue powder on the ground not far away. Goofy knew that it was the debris left behind after the destruction of the Cosmic Rubik's Cube, and Thanos had obviously obtained the space gem, which allowed him to leave here easily.
"Damn it... It seems that other than the dwarf king Yitri, someone else has made the Infinity Gloves for Thanos!" Gao Fei said solemnly.
After all, there are many powerful people in the universe, and it is not only the dwarf king Itri who can create the infinite gloves. Tony Stark also successfully created the infinite gloves in "Avengers 4".
And once the space gem is obtained by Thanos, he has a very terrifying mobility.
"Susan! Susan!" Seeing Susan injured, Reed rushed over and asked nervously, "Are you all right? Are you injured?"
"I'm... okay..." Susan clutched her neck in pain, with a huge red fingerprint around her neck, she struggled and said, "The Cube of the Universe was snatched by a purple giant who said he was an... ecologist ."
"What?!" Reed was stunned, where did the ecologist appear?
Johnny heaved a long sigh of relief and said, "Great, Susan, it's better than anything if you can live. It seems that this alien is not very vicious, at least he didn't kill you."
Susan shook her head and said, "No, Johnny, you don't understand... This alien is different from ordinary alien invaders. He said he wanted to adjust the balance of the entire universe... He said he would not create meaningless things. Killing, but I always felt like he was brewing a very dangerous plan, and my gut told me so."
Tony also nodded and said: "Anyway, his purpose is very clear, that is, the Infinity Stones - and we know that the Infinity Stones are a very powerful energy source, and it is not a fun thing to put them together..."
"So where is this alien now?" Thor turned to Heimdall, "Heimdall, can you see Thanos?"
"I'm looking for him..." Heimdall said. Although he has eyes that can see all the details of the Nine Realms, it also takes time to find someone.
But at the same time, Goofy has begun to take his own measures to limit Thanos - he directly used the skill "Whispers of the Ancient Gods" to control the actions of Thanos.
If he can control Thanos to return to Baxter Building and return the Space Gem, then everything is done.
However, at this moment, Gao Fei suddenly realized one thing, his skills could no longer control Thanos.
When Goofy couldn't successfully cast "Whispers of the Ancient God" on the target, it could only mean one thing—the other party's spirit value surpassed Goofy's level.
And Gao Fei's current spiritual value is very high, there is no doubt about this, then Thanos can surpass Gao Fei in spiritual level, unless it means that he has won another gem that provides powerful spiritual power - the original soul stone!
"Oops, Thanos has mastered the original soul stone." Gao Fei said in a deep voice.
Originally, the original soul stone was in charge of Goofy and Tony Stark in turn. During this period of time, Goofy was supposed to manage this gem, but the last time Hela came, it directly blew up Goofy's home. Lost the place to keep the gem, so the Mind Stone was handed over to Tony Stark.
After Thanos obtained the space gem and could go in and out of any place at will, capturing the mind gem became a piece of cake for him. Breaking through the defenses of Stark Industries was a no-brainer.
"Tony, where did you store the Mind Stone?" Goofy asked Tony looking back.
Tony immediately understood what Gao Fei meant, and said solemnly: "That purple potato essence ran to get the Mind Gem? Oops... This guy doesn't want to collect all the Infinity Stones, right? The Mind Gem is on the top floor of the Stark Building. I dispatched a few fully automatic Iron Warriors to guard it with Happy...but I guess such a defensive lineup is nothing to that purple potato spirit, right?"
"That's true." Gao Fei nodded and said, "The fighting power of that purple potato essence is too strong. Unless I take action myself, there are not many people who can stop him..."
After hearing the conversation between the two, Heimdall turned his attention to the top floor of the Stark Building, then shook his head and said, "We're a step too late, Thanos has already taken the original soul stone."
"Damn it!" Tony exclaimed, "We were actually robbed of two infinite rough stones by this purple potato essence."
Reed is relatively calm: "But he also paid a very heavy price. He sacrificed a spaceship and three right-hand men to divert our attention."
Thor added: "There is also an army of Chitauris, and his largest warship, the Templar One. Thanos sacrificed more than half of his military power for these two Infinity Stones. What does he want to use these infinity stones? What are the gems for? Are they really worth it?"
Susan frowned. "He just said he's an ecologist, and he wants to use these Infinity Stones to maintain the... balance of life in the universe? Seems like that."
Gao Fei did not hide key information this time, but chose to share it with everyone.
"I know what this guy is going to do." He said in a deep voice, "Titan, the hometown of Thanos, was once resource depleted due to a population explosion. In the end, the entire planet died and became a barren ruin... Since this happened Thanos realized that the endless proliferation of creatures would lead to their extinction, so their population must be controlled..."
"The idea he advocates is to control the population and effectively control all this before the population explodes, so he began to invade various planets, and slaughtered half of the population on this planet wherever he went to slow down the uncontrolled reproduction of creatures and ensure resources. not dying..."
"That's why he calls himself an ecologist."
Hearing this, Tony couldn't help frowning: "This guy is a bit too extreme, right?"
Reid also disagrees with this plan: "It's not the best way to control overpopulation, it's just a crude and irresponsible approach. You know that the population is actually growing exponentially, and according to the exponential growth characteristics, half of the current number is actually at the end of the timeline... For example, there are 2 people on a planet at the beginning, and they multiply according to the exponential characteristics, 4 people in the second year, 16 people in the third year, and 256 in the fourth year. Individuals, 65,536 individuals can be reproduced in the fifth year... Assuming that Thanos enters the field to intervene at this time and eliminate half of the population, then the population will only be reduced to 32,768, and according to the characteristics of exponential growth, in the case of such a large base , it only takes a few hours for the creatures on this planet to restore the population to the value before the massacre..."
"If Thanos is trying to control the population through massacres, he will have to massacre at least 99% of the population to achieve this, because population growth is not linear."
Tony scoffed: "I think Thanos may not be good at math? Are the Titans more partial to subjects? Are they better at physical education?"
Thor clenched Thor's hammer tightly and said: "I think Thanos just wants to satisfy his desire to kill in this way. He just finds a reasonable excuse for his evil deeds."
Susan looked up at Goofy and continued to ask, "So, Goofy, what does Thanos' behavior have to do with his collection of the Infinity Stones?"
Goofy said: "The Infinity Stones are a very powerful force in the universe. They have existed since the beginning of our universe. There are six of these stones in total~www.NovelMTL.com~ When they are fused together, they will produce Incredibly powerful..."
"And once Thanos masters these six gems, he only needs to snap his fingers to randomly kill half of the creatures in the universe. This idiot doesn't even understand the characteristics of population growth, and he has already started planning to kill the universe directly. half of the living beings."
Hearing this, everyone present took a deep breath.
Even Loki, who didn't care about the lives of others the most, became nervous, and said in horror: "My God! Does that mean that when Thanos collects the six Infinity Stones, he snaps his fingers, and I may be beaten by him as well. die?!"
"Nonsense!" Thor glared at his younger brother dissatisfied, "Now if we don't do our best to stop Thanos, then anyone can be killed by his snap of fingers!"
"And what about Thanos himself?" Johnny asked. "By randomly erasing half of the creatures in the universe, doesn't that mean Thanos himself may die?"
"Maybe Thanos doesn't care about his own life at all." Goofy said, "This guy is a complete lunatic, he even sacrificed a powerful army and three trusted cronies in exchange for the Infinity Stones in order to achieve his greatness. I think it doesn't matter if he dies as long as he can accomplish the goal of obliterating half of the living beings in the universe."
Thor agreed with Goofy's opinion very much, and nodded: "It seems that this crazy Titan is really such a person, and he has already desperate."
At this time, Reed suddenly reminded: "Wait, let's not discuss the purpose of Thanos first, I remember that there seem to be more than two Infinity Stones on our earth, right?"
"That's right!" Tony immediately became vigilant. "Apart from space and mind gems, are the time gems and reality gems also on Earth? Our crisis is not over yet, and Thanos may not have left here!"
