Chapter 452: A Real Crisis

"I've finally sold it, so you can say it." Tony grumbled with some dissatisfaction.

Banner said unconcernedly, "What is there to hide?" And this can't be considered dead, his soul is still here. ”

"Really? I can say with certainty that only the soul is left and that is dead. ”

Qiao Lu didn't care about their argument, but hurriedly asked Banner, "Then how can we settle him completely?" I don't want to use the Infinity Stones and find Thanos staring at me inside. ”

"Don't do anything." Banner replied:

"In this world, the Infinity Stones need an extra supply of energy to function. So as long as we don't give the soul gem energy, Thanos's soul won't last long, just like a critically ill patient who has had his oxygen tube removed, just need to watch him go. ”

Tony still insisted: "Repeat, Thanos is dead, and he can't do anything in his soul state, at most he will leave a few last words." ”

Hearing them say this, Qiao Lu gradually put his mind at ease. For him, Thanos must be as far away as he is to die, stop cheating corpses or something.

"He can't be resurrected?" Qiao Lu asked cautiously.

"Unless you take the initiative to resurrect him." Banner replied, "If you have to, you'll have to find him a suitable body with the same strength and physique as Thanos did when he was alive." In this way, he can use the soul gem to resurrect his soul on a new body, and this is how the Obsidian Five will come back in place of someone else's body. ”

A physical body similar to Thanos' strength and physique, I'm afraid it's not so easy to find, not to mention that Qiao Lu won't do it.

Hearing that even the resurrection conditions were so harsh, Qiao Lu was truly relieved.

"Then let him disappear quickly," Qiao Lu said impatiently, lest he have to dream a lot at night.

At this moment, the instrument in charge of monitoring the condition of the soul gem made a murmur, as if something was going on.

Qiao Lu frowned: "What's the matter?" ”

"I think he has something to say." Banner said, looking at the readings on the instrument.

"Why listen to his nonsense?"

Banner said, "Talking will intensify the consumption of the remaining energy of the soul gem, and it will probably make Thanos' soul disappear a little faster." ”

"Well, let's hear what else he has to say."

After getting Qiao Lu's consent, Thanos's figure was gradually projected on the soul gem, but at this moment he had no substance, just a soul left in the world.

"Congratulations." Thanos sat down and said to Qiao Liu, there was no anger and resentment in his tone, on the contrary, only desolation and relief from the heavy mission.

"You won... But the world is already in trouble. ”

Tony sarcastically said mercilessly, "Are you still going to say that half of the life in the universe was wiped out in order to save it?" ”

"I know it's hard to accept, but everything I'm doing is trying to prevent the real crisis from coming."

"No, you don't even know!"

Thinking of the little spider that disappeared in front of his eyes by a comrade who snapped his fingers and turned to dust in his timeline, Tony couldn't help but punch him.

It's a pity that Thanos is just a lingering soul now, and Tony's fist passes through his body as meaningless as if it were passing through a shadow.

Thanos didn't care about Tony's behavior, and just calmly continued:

"Believe it or not, our universe is like a small puddle that can only hold a few fish, otherwise they will all die of lack of oxygen."

"If it were me, I'd add water to it until it becomes an ocean!" Tony immediately retorted.

"You still don't understand what I'm saying." Thanos sneered, "The sea is dry, that's why the fish are crowded in puddles, and there are even many who have never seen the ocean beforeΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·"

At this moment, Qiao Lu's eyes suddenly sharpened, and from Thanos's words, he read the message of extreme danger.

"What the hell are you trying to say?" Qiao Lu asked solemnly.

"It doesn't matter, you'll soon realize, it's just that it's probably too late."

After Thanos finished his last words, the soul gem also ran out of energy, and his soul gradually became transparent until it disappeared completely.

"Is he gone?" Tony asked, looking at the soul gem that had lost its light.

Banner nodded and said, "Yes, there is no soul of his in the Infinity Stones anymore. ”

Thanos disappeared completely like this, but it left Jolu with a bunch of questions, what is Thanos trying to avoid by wanting to eliminate half of the life in the universe so radically?

According to the last sentence that Thanos said, Qiao Lu couldn't help but think of the purge agreement caused by the ancient Cybertron civilization in the Transformers world, which seemed to be the same endgame crisis as the Infinity Gauntlet.

Is there any connection between the two? Or is it exactly the same?

Qiao Lu immediately remembered Optimus Prime, as the only little spark left in the Cybertron civilization on the wandering earth, maybe he could know more about the reason for all this.

He had even heard the explanation once, but at that time he didn't realize how serious the matter really was.

The Infinity Gauntlet, the Purge Agreement, and even the endless reincarnation created by Sarnagar in StarCraft are not an accident, but a problem that any plane must face.

Only the higher civilizations that have developed to the apex in the various planes can realize that this is happening. Therefore, they have prepared their own means, which is an unbelievable endgame crisis for low-level civilizations.

But if you think about it carefully, you will find that these advanced civilizations in the universe are not trying to satisfy their own selfish desires, on the contrary, they are also struggling to survive in pain, and they are using all means to avoid the real crisis!

Qiao Lu found Optimus Prime and seriously asked him the question that should have been asked in the first place:

"Optimus Prime, I remember you told me that there are two ways to solve the problem that the universe is heading for destruction, the Purge Protocol is the masterpiece of the ancient Cybertron civilization, and the other is also the proposal of the Cybertron civilization?"

"Nope." Optimus Prime replied, "It was another race, it could be a group of intelligent individuals, it could be a civilization, or a few civilizations, we don't know, but they once invited the Cybertron civilization to join their project, calling it the Cosmic Return Movement Statement. ”

At this moment, Qiao Lu realized that everything that happened in the past was not a coincidence.

So far, the journey of the Wandering Earth has been nothing more than a fish in one puddle jumping into another.

Only those who stand on the shore can see clearly what is happening in the entire infinite universe!
