The realm of the gods collapsed.

Thanos reappeared in front of Jane Foster through the Space Gem and took the Reality Gem, while keeping a promise he hadn't technically made, leaving Jane Foster safe and sound.

After getting the Reality Gem, Thanos took another look at the shattered Asgard, then turned away without saying a word, disappearing into the Gem's Spatial Gate.

Rowe sat decadently in the ruins of the Golden Palace, and Hela came to comfort him, but he was silent as if he hadn't heard.

Exhausting Asgard's strength failed to stop Thanos, and although Asgard did not suffer as many casualties as in the original books, he still felt that it was a complete defeat.

Next, will Thanos still gather the six Infinity Stones and snap his fingers that make countless lives disappear?

Rowe thought about using reckoning against Thanos, but when he thought about it, he knew it wouldn't work.

The power of reckoning is based on the enemy's crazy attacks, and Thanos has no murderous intent at all now, just thinking about getting the gem as soon as possible and leaving, so naturally he will not attack with all his strength.

In the face of infinite power, if the reckoning fails, then only the holy shield remains.

Protect those around you with the Holy Shield?

This should be a viable strategy, even if Luo Wei has not yet learned the Holy Shield technique, the more than a hundred spell fragments in his hand are enough for him to protect the people closest to him.

But he was not willing to do just that.

It's just that there seems to be no other way, and learning the Holy Shield may turn around, but only if there is an Ember Bringer.

Thanos is still two gems away, and with his amazing efficiency, he won't give Rowe time to create an Ember Messenger anyway.

Just as Luo Wei thought this, a golden-red circle of light appeared out of thin air, and a long-faced man in a red cloak stepped out of it.

"I'm Stephen Strange, the new Supreme Mage." Stephen said, staring at Rowe from the start.

Looking at the sudden appearance of Doctor Strange, Luo Wei's expression suddenly moved, as if he had thought of something.

Doctor Strange continued, "I already know that the universe is facing a crisis, and in fact, we may soon suffer a complete destruction. ”

"Total destruction?" Luo Wei's brow furrowed.

"Yes, the complete destruction of the entire universe without a single survivor, not even a single bacterium." Doctor Strange said.

Luo Wei didn't speak, but he was a little surprised in his heart, after all, Thanos's plan was to destroy half of life, not all life, why would Doctor Strange see a future of complete destruction?

Thor asked, "So why are you here?" ”

"To save us, of course." Doctor Strange took a deep breath, "I've looked at fourteen million futures with the Time Stone, and all but one of them we've failed. ”

Hela couldn't help but ask, "What's that situation?" ”

"I don't know what it is, it's completely unknown and chaotic, and it may end up being a failure." "But there is a silver lining. ”

After a pause, he returned his gaze to Rowe and continued, "The premise for this chaos to happen is you, Sun God. ”

"On me?"

Doctor Strange nodded, "Yes." That's all I can say and so much more. ”

Rowe fell into a long silence, and finally he decided, "This is the only way." ”

"What do you need me to do?" Doctor Strange asked.

"Accompany me to Nidawi and use your Time Gem to make an artifact born in advance." Luo Wei said.

……

"What ...... this" Sanos stared blankly at the surrounding scene, a building that looked like an altar stood in front of him.

He used the Space Gem, originally thinking of returning to the dark quadrant, but never expected to come to an unknown realm.

It's desolate and dim, and not a single bug seems to live here.

But this was not the case, and just as Sanos was about to use the Space Gem again to leave, a black-robed man floating in the air like a ghost appeared in front of him.

"Thanos, son of Arals." The black-robed man made a faint voice and said Thanos' identity.

"Who are you?" Sanos asked.

The black-robed man didn't answer, but said, "Aren't you chasing the Infinity Stone, there is one here, and it is the most critical and important soul gem. ”

As he spoke, he led Thanos towards the altar.

Thanos was slightly surprised: "Oh? What do I have to give? ”

"You don't have to pay for anything." The black-robed man's answer was even more surprising, "As long as you promise to kill someone, the soul gem will naturally belong to you." ”

"Who?"

"The sun god of Asgard, Rowe Garrison." The black-robed man said slowly.

Thanos was silent for a moment.

In fact, he also wanted to kill......

It's just that Luo Wei's strength is too strong, and it is not easy to kill before collecting the six Infinity Stones, so he didn't make a move when he was in Asgard just now, after all, killing a person has never been his main goal.

"Why kill him?" Thanos couldn't help but ask.

"It's a revenge, I don't know the specifics, I'm just a caretaker." The black-robed man said, "After you get the gem, it has nothing to do with me. ”

"Well, can you do it?"

Sanos didn't hesitate: "Yes." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the earth suddenly trembled slightly, and a bright pillar of light rose from the bottom of the altar and reached Thanos's side.

Thanos saw that in this dazzling pillar of light, there was a bright yellow gem levitating, which emitted strange energy fluctuations, echoing with the other four gems in his hand.

He took the gem and set it in his glove.

At this point, he has five Infinity Stones, and only one Time Stone has yet to be obtained.

"There is still time to ...... gem"

……

Nidawi.

The dwarven furnace was still burning, but unlike usual, a layer of green, hazy mystical light shrouded it.

This mysterious glow gives the things inside a very different flow of time from the outside world, and Luo Wei and the dwarven king Attri are in the middle of it, and their every movement is like being pressed the accelerator button, thousands of times faster than the outside world.

So much so that from the outside, the eyes of the two were cloudy - because of the ultra-high frequency of blinking.

And looking from the inside out, everything outside seems to have been paused and is in a state of near-complete solidification.

Doctor Strange was standing outside this time barrier, holding the Time Stone in his hand, maintaining this difference in the flow of time.

"It's almost done!" Atri said excitedly, the prototype of the Ember Bringer had appeared in front of the two of them, and they could already feel its unique light and heat.

Luo Wei also felt his heart beat faster.

Despite the help of the Time Gem, the existence of ready-made alternatives to essentia ingots can still be counted as a bonus.

After years of research by the dwarves, they have finally created the perfect metal they have dreamed of with vibranium and Uru, the metal that they were prophesied to save them.

And this vibranium Uru alloy created by the dwarves happens to be a perfect substitute for essentia ingots. Of course, this is not very surprising, after all, vibranium and Uru are excellent substitutes for essentia casts and aojin, and the only coincidence may be the mixing ratio.

This makes it only a matter of time before the Ember Bringer is born.

But at this moment, Luo Wei looked up consciously, and not far beyond the time barrier, a little blue light appeared out of thin air and slowly expanded......
