Chapter 98 You Can COS Lantern Man
The only thing that can defeat magic is magic!
In other words, the only thing that can defeat the gem holder is the gem holder!
Let’s not talk about the difference in combat power between Kevin and Thanos. Anyway, with the blessing of the power gem, Thanos is definitely an opponent that Kevin cannot deal with.
Challenging Thanos without any preparation is not called bravery, it is called brainlessness.
Kevin happened to be at the Collector’s place, and the Collector happened to have a reality gem.
Then Kevin simply took the collector’s reality gem and used it to deal with power. Maybe he could defeat Thanos who holds the power gem.
This is Kevin’s plan.
But after hearing Kevin’s request, Tiwan laughed out loud:
“Haha… It’s really interesting. You mean you want to take the reality gem from me without paying anything? Getting something for nothing?”
“I said it was borrowed, and I didn’t say I wouldn’t return it. Besides, besides using the reality gem to deal with Thanos, do you think there are other ways to stop him?”
Kevin was not in a hurry.
He had not obtained the Reality Gem, so he just gave it to them. Even if he was anxious, it was useless. He could only ask the Guardians of the Galaxy and Xandar to wait for him.
"How can I believe you? You will return the gem smoothly after borrowing it? You are a wanted criminal."
Tiwan did not trust Kevin very much.
He did not know Kevin, and had never heard of Kevin before. The only information he could find was that Kevin sneaked into Xandar, was arrested and imprisoned, and then escaped from prison.
Now Kevin is still a wanted criminal of the Nova Corps like other Guardians of the Galaxy.
A person of unknown origin, a wanted fugitive, such a person wants to borrow the most precious collection from Tiwan.
It would be a miracle if Tiwan could believe it.
"Because I don't want to offend you, nor do I want to offend Asgard." Kevin gave a prepared answer:
"The predecessor of the Reality Stone is the Aether particle, which the Asgardians sent to you for safekeeping. If the Reality Stone cannot be returned smoothly, the first people to be anxious are the Asgardians.
"And I will go to the Nine Realms controlled by the Asgardians later. With such an identity, I can't go there. "
Actually, Kevin has no other options.
If you want to talk about ways to stop Thanos, Kevin, who knows the movie world, can come up with a lot of ideas with just a little thought.
Such as contacting the Avengers, or looking for the Ancient One, or looking for Odin, or looking for someone from Wakanda.
At worst, you can contact Nick Fury, that jerk-headed guy, and ask him to contact Captain Marvel.
Kevin promised that no matter how powerful Thanos is with the Power Stone, Captain Marvel should be able to stop Thanos.
If it doesn't work, you can go to Thor. Captain Marvel plus Thor, the two of them should be able to save Xandar together.
But the problem is that whether it's to Captain Marvel or the Avengers, Kevin has to go to Earth first.
The Earth is not close to here. If Kevin goes to Earth to find reinforcements first and then comes back to help Xandar, then I'm afraid it will really be like what Rocket said, and he can only go back to collect their bodies.
The fastest way to achieve it at the moment is to ask Tivan for the Reality Stone.
Any other method besides this is too late.
"You even know this. "
After hearing Kevin say the words Asgard and Aether, Tiwan finally showed a surprised expression.
These things should be considered secrets even in Asgard.
Even many Asgardians don't know that Aether is the Reality Stone.
But Kevin in front of him said all this, as if he knew everything and nothing could be hidden from his eyes.
Kevin still smiled:
"I said, I know a lot."
"..."
Tiwan was silent, and looked at Kevin for a while, as if he was thinking about this matter seriously.
After a long time, Tiwan suddenly stood up and said to Kevin:
"... Come with me."
Tiwan's action represented his decision at the moment.
He seemed to have thought it through and decided to lend the gem to Kevin, which made Kevin relieved.
On Tiwan's side, the storage method of real gems is different from other collections.
Because this is one of the six most precious raw stones in the universe, of course it cannot be treated in the same way as ordinary collections.
Put it in the deepest part of the collection room, store it carefully, and don't let anyone have the opportunity to get it. This is the correct way to collect it.
And at this moment, Tiwan took Kevin to his most core collection room.
Even the explosion just now did not affect here.
Bringing Kevin here, Tiwan asked him to wait behind.
After a moment, Tiwan waved his hand gently upwards, and the surrounding machines sensed Tiwan's actions and began to operate.
The gears were running, and various collections flashed in front of Tiwan and Kevin in different categories. Not long after, a rectangular box stopped in front of the two and was transported to them by the machine.
The rectangular box was made of Uru alloy, with a golden surface and a black interior.
In the middle of the black, there was a red glowing line.
This is the container that stores the ether particles. The thin and long lines with red light in the middle of the black are the ether particles themselves.
That is the reality gem.
Tiwan took it in his hand gently as if it were a treasure, and turned to put it in front of Kevin.
"This is the reality gem."
"It is still an ether particle now..."
Kevin frowned at the box in front of him.
Before being touched by the Infinity Gauntlet, the reality gem had always been presented to the outside world in the form of 'ether particles'.
If the user wants to use the power in it, he needs to integrate the ether particles into his body.
And this method will cause damage to the body.
Kevin's current physique should not be comparable to that of the Asgardian gods. He is not sure whether he will be hurt if he absorbs the ether particles.
Moreover, even if there is no harm, Kevin will not be able to take this thing out after absorbing the ether particles.
How to return it then?
"Haha, I thought you really knew everything."
The collector laughed at Kevin's embarrassment.
Kevin's expression remained unchanged:
"I know it will turn into a gem when it touches the Infinity Gauntlet, but I don't know what to do before that."
"Well, let's not talk about what the Infinity Gauntlet you are talking about is, but since you know that the Infinity Gauntlet can do this kind of thing, then you should know what the Infinity Gauntlet is made of."
"...Uru alloy?"
Kevin's expression changed.
Tiwan nodded:
"Yes, that's it."
The Infinity Gauntlet is made of the alloy Uru alloy controlled by the dwarves. This alloy is quite powerful. Thor's Mjolnir and Stormbreaker are both made of Uru alloy.
The Infinity Gauntlet is also made of Uru alloy.
If it is made of Uru alloy, it may be possible to make the ether particles take shape.
Kevin was guessing, and Tiwan took out something and put it in front of Kevin:
"After getting the ether particles, I have been thinking about how to make it appear in the most perfect posture to the outside world, and then I thought of the Asgardian gods.
"The raw materials of the weapons in the hands of the gods of their tribe all come from the most powerful metals in their respective tribes, so I spent a little time to collect the scraps of these metals and used a little special method to create this little thing. "
Tiwan said, putting the things he took out on the table, side by side with the ether particles.
Kevin looked over and saw that it was a dark gold ring made of Uru alloy.
The ring was round in shape, and the place in the middle where the gems should be stored was empty, which gave people an overall bad feeling.
Kevin reached out to touch the ring, but was slapped away by Tiwan:
"Don't move yet, first let me confirm again, you are sure you will return it, right?"
"I said, I will definitely return it, otherwise you will not let me go, and the Asgardian gods who have been staring at this place will not let me go either."
Kevin knew very well that Heimdall, the guardian of Asgard who could see any corner of the universe, must be watching this side.
If Kevin did not return the reality gem, he would definitely report the matter to Odin.
At that time, Kevin would have to face the group of Avengers led by Thor.
Although Kevin was not sure whether Asgard, which was now under the control of Loki, would care about this matter...
But anyway, the Reality Gem was really of no use to Kevin. It could only be used as a paperweight after leaving the Marvel Universe. What use would Kevin have to take it?
This thing was sold by the "pile" at the Time Administration!
Kevin looked at Tiwan seriously, so that he could see the sincerity in his eyes.
Tiwan quickly retracted his gaze and looked at the things on the table again.
He no longer continued to ask Kevin whether he would return the gem, but picked up the box containing the ether particles and said to Kevin:
"Put the ring on your dominant hand."
Kevin immediately picked up the ring made of Uru metal and placed it on the index finger of his right hand.
Tiwan said again:
"Point the empty space of the gem at me."
Kevin did as he was told, clenched his right fist, and pointed the empty space in the middle of the gem at Tiwan.
After all this was done, Tiwan made a final confirmation:
"Are you ready?"
"Of course."
As soon as Kevin finished speaking, Tiwan twisted the hand holding the ether particle storage device and pulled it to both sides.
The box was opened by Tiwan with brute force, and the ether particles loaded in it floated out in the form of particles.
But as soon as it floated into the air, the ring in Kevin's hand emitted a red light.
The light attracted the ether particles, and those floating particles began to gather on Kevin's ring.
At first, the particles took shape very quickly, but gradually they became faster and faster.
The violent wind blew, and the red light filled the collector's hut again. Kevin felt his hand vibrating. Even with his current physique, he felt that he could not control the ring in his hand.
After an unknown amount of time, the wind finally stopped, and the ring on Kevin's hand stopped vibrating.
When everything returned to calm, the ether particles originally stored in the box disappeared.
Instead, a beautiful gem with a bright red, dazzling and dreamy appearance appeared on the ring in Kevin's hand.
This is the reality gem.
It belongs to Kevin for the time being.
"...I think I can go to the DC universe to COS Lantern."
Looking at the reality gem in his hand, Kevin whispered to himself.
Tiwan didn't care what Kevin said. He put down the box containing the ether particles and stared at the reality gem on Kevin's ring with excitement.
His hands were shaking, and he looked like he wanted to snatch the gem. He said excitedly:
"Too-beautiful! This is what I want to see! This is it!!"
"Uh... Tiwan?"
"Quick! Go do what you have to do! And then give me the gem! I can't wait to play with it!"
Tiwan looked just like a pervert who saw a beautiful woman in some short movies, which gave Kevin goose bumps.
Although he knew that Tiwan was too persistent and passionate about the collection, he was still surprised to see that he was "passionate" to this extent.
In order to prevent Tiwan from really snatching the gem back, Kevin left Tiwan's collection room without hesitation after getting the gem.
After getting the real gem, Kevin had the confidence to deal with Thanos.
So what we need to do now is to find a spaceship to Xandar.
And find a pilot.
Kevin doesn’t know how to fly a spaceship.
