Chapter 428: Skillful Tongue, Thanos Questions
Yes, at this time. When everything began to change in an unpredictable direction, a new character appeared in front of Loki and the others.
Thanos, the man behind them. And the source of all this war. He is the overlord of the universe, and a terrifying existence that no one wants to provoke. Everything that happens here is dominated and manipulated by him. And what scares Loki the most is that he is also a target calculated by himself.
With his ambition and strength, Loki plotted a huge conspiracy. He asked the overlord of the universe to use almost all of his power for two infinite gems and an existence that he hated deeply. Thanos has every reason to take his advice.
In fact, Thanos did accept his opinion and gave them absolute trust. Even the fetish of Infinity Gems has been entrusted to them. It has to be said that Thanos has recognized their loyalty to some extent.
But he didn't know that the two people he relied on as his right-hand man were not on his side at all. They have ghosts in their hearts, and they have already secretly colluded together. Even in order to be able to eradicate this guy who is dictating himself behind his back, they also gave the only guy who can fight him the most critical capital.
Unlimited Gems! It's not so much that they collect this fetish for Thanos or for themselves. It is better to say that he made a special trip to collect this kind of fetish and hand it over to Zhou Yi. Then let him use it to deal with Thanos, their boss.
These two guys are not satisfied with the guarantee that Thanos gave them, or other things like handouts. They want more, and this more is obviously what Thanos can't give them. And they, who couldn't bear the greed in their hearts, chose to use this special method to obtain everything from him.
From the beginning of the situation, their plan was smooth, and they even mastered all the situations for a time. Zhou Yi almost defeated Thanos, and they also controlled all the existences on earth that could resist them. Although the cost is huge, it is not unacceptable.
However, at the last moment. Everything was turned upside down. It didn't start with Hulk's awakening, but with Thanos' appearance.
The appearance of Thanos made all their plans come to naught, and even said that at this time they had to curb all their ambitions, and kneel down in front of Thanos respectfully and obediently.
"My lord! How did you appear in this place?"
"Loki!" He looked down respectfully like the most tame subject. I can't see any discord between the two people at all. Thanos grinned grimly and asked such words. "What the hell did you do, why did the infinite gem I gave you appear on that guy!"
As soon as this sentence is asked,
Just let the two guys kneeling on the ground sweat coldly. The biggest loophole in their plan is that they didn't expect Thanos to appear in front of them alive.
Because no matter from which aspect, they all believe that Thanos, who has put down the infinite gems in his hand, cannot be the opponent of Zhou Yi who has two infinite gems. But they didn't expect that Thanos had defended them. The three Infinity Stones he keeps showing off are just an illusion. In fact, with the addition of the two for them, he has a total of four Infinity Stones in his hand.
This amount occupies the majority of the seven gems. Compared with the number of gemstones he possesses, his immortality is the most hidden hole card. Most people can't force out his hole card, but when Zhou Yi knew this hole card, it was already too late.
Thanos' hidden hole card made him the final winner, and when he appeared here and asked them such a question, for Loki and Ronan, it was nothing more than the end.
So far, they can only gamble on their own luck. See how many secrets Thanos knows. So they started making up the so-called truth one by one.
"Sorry, my lord. I am no match for that earth god. He took the power gem from my hand, and I have no way to stop him!"
"Moreover, my stupid brother brought him another gem, the gem of reality preserved by Asgard. I took a step too late, and by the time I found the trace of that gem, he had already fallen into Zhouyi hands!"
At this time, these two bad-bellied guys completely cut themselves off from everything. On the surface, their losses are not small. So if you don't delve into it, it's almost impossible to see what role they played in this war.
Is loyal. Still secretly pregnant. These are all things that require Thanos to spend time and thought to judge. And now, what Thanos lacks most is time. At this moment, he is in the weakest moment, in order to keep his own life and victory. He was forced to give up the other three Infinity Stones. And what he holds in his hands now is only one Reality Gem.
An Infinity Stone is not enough to give him absolute dominance. So at this time, he has no intention of investigating who betrayed him, and all his thoughts are on the remaining infinite gems. There are still two gems on the earth, and what he wants now is the one held by Loki.
"Give me the Mind Stone, Loki. This kind of thing shouldn't be in your hands right now!"
"Yes, my lord. This is what it should be!" Loki, who knew very well the gap between himself and Thanos, had no intention of going against his ideas at all. Looking at the outstretched palm of Thanos, he lowered his head and offered his cane very respectfully.
Loki showed such obedience that it was impossible for Thanos to have the slightest doubt about him. He reached for his scepter, played with it, and then put on a meaningful smile.
"Among all my subordinates, you are probably the one with the most brains, Loki! You are really smart, and you actually know how to use illusion to cover up its existence, so that guy Zhou Yi didn't notice it. You finally made a piece The things that satisfied me finally did not disappoint me any longer!"
"It's my honor!" Loki replied with his head down, without even looking up at Thanos. And his conspicuous demeanor made Thanos very satisfied. A wise man should know when to express himself and when to keep silent. Like now, it would be wiser for him to keep silent.
Glancing at the other stiff statue-like Ronan, Thanos sneered and crushed the scepter in his hand. The huge blue crystal at the top of the scepter shattered under his action, and at the same time a pink gemstone fell down with the shattering of the crystal.
The pink gem-the gem of the soul, a powerful treasure that can manipulate the soul of life. It is also one of the only Infinity Stones whose location can be confirmed.
Due to the fight with Zhou Yi, the three Infinity Stones were completely lost. They can be said to be lost in any corner of this world, and they may also be lost in any fragment of the long river of time. It is almost impossible to regain these lost gems in a short period of time.
So now, Thanos must take the remaining few gems into his own hands. The Mind Stone is one, and the other is the Space Stone.
It's now lying on top of Stark Tower, providing a so-called portal for an entire alien army to invade. Although the alien fleet was almost wiped out, the space gems in the Rubik's Cube did not stop their work casually. It is still operating, even Thanos in the battleship can clearly feel its existence.
"Found one, and another. But it's just around the corner, Ronan?"
Hearing Thanos' call, Ronan frowned and raised his head, asking suspiciously.
"My lord? What are your orders?"
"Your army was completely wiped out. Do you have anything to say about this?"
Embedding the Mind Stone on his Infinity Gauntlet, Thanos stretched his fingers and asked Ronan like this. This is a very serious dereliction of duty, especially in the eyes of Thanos, this dereliction of duty is simply unforgivable.
"My lord, this world is different from other worlds we have experienced. Although their army is not worth mentioning, they have unrivaled warriors. My soldiers have tried their best, but we really cannot defeat them. This is not us problem, my lord. Just because they are too powerful!"
The tradition of the Cree made Ronan immediately start arguing, but he didn't know that this kind of failure required not arguing, but the most submissive obedience. Even the worst owner will forgive the mistakes of a well-behaved pet. But if it is a prick, then all you can get is a heavy lesson or the heaviest price.
Now Ronan is unknowingly playing this stabbing role, and Thanos has never been an open-minded master. He is an out-and-out villain, and villains have always used bloody and cruel lessons as a means to treat their disobedient subordinates.
"Is this how you answer me, Ronan? Do you know what you get for answering like that?"
"I know, my lord. But I must prove to you that our sacrifices are real, and you cannot deny the battle of a Cree. Even a defeated Cree! We have lost many soldiers who fought for it die, and that is their honor!"
The Kree people prey on the weak and the strong, but that doesn't mean they don't have the so-called honor. A warrior, even a warrior who died in battle, should be respected in the eyes of the Cree. Although these invading Cree people traveled thousands of miles to die because of his orders. But that doesn't mean he thinks these people deserve to die.
Tradition made him pay attention to these war dead. And Thanos wants to tell him that his so-called tradition is meaningless. (~^~)
