Chapter 616: The Last Thing

"It's me who loses." Thanos didn't struggle anymore, and even the tenacity in his eyes dissipated. He looked at Michael with a blank face and said slowly, "Congratulations, Black Knight." It looks like we're going to be the only one left winner. ”

"Ah, yes." Michael replied casually as he looked at the Cosmic Cube in his hand.

There is no doubt that this is a real artifact, an artifact that may surpass the six Infinity Primordial Stones, but its power is limited, or Thanos has not been able to fully exert it, which has led to this ending.

It's hard for Michael to say, but he speculates that it may be due to the cube sealing the sense of self. The cosmic cube will give birth to its own thoughts and consciousness, and the thoughts of the nascent cube will be greatly influenced by its own holders.

Perhaps, as Queen Villeck said, perhaps it was the Cosmic Cube that became disgusted with its past master, and thus closed itself off and exiled itself. If it was a cosmic cube with abundant energy and complete functions, maybe Thanos would win.

But there are no ifs. Michael defeated him, recovered the cube, and that's what it is.

Such a dangerous thing in the hands of anyone can cause a huge upheaval. Michael casually used a space spell to put away the cube and decided to go back and deal with it again.

Without the blessing of the artifact, the disparity in strength between the two sides suddenly became huge. Knowing that the ending could not be changed, Thanos only looked at Michael calmly and said, "So now you win." But think about it, Black Knight, is it worth it? I'm the one who knows power best, and I know how power can change a person and what it often comes with. Take a look at what you've done to get to where you are today, and think about it...... So far, what do you have left? ”

Michael glanced at him, not paying attention, and only replied lightly, "Everything I wish I had." ”

After saying that, ignoring Thanos anymore, he slowly raised his right hand. The six rough stones on his chest shone at the same time, and the colored light poured into his arm through the armor like a torrent, filling the glove of the right hand.

With a snap of the fingers, the crisp sound seemed to resound throughout the universe, and colorful light erupted towards the entire universe. The energy fluctuations transcended the confines of space, flew across the universe, and swept past the battlefield where Earth was fighting fiercely.

The fierce war ended in an instant. Thanos's subordinate soldiers and generals disintegrated and disappeared one after another under the influence of powerful energy, turning into dust and dissipating with the wind. Their ship crashed, the battleship stopped, and the mighty army vanished in the blink of an eye in an invisible impact.

The war came to an abrupt end, so fast that even the fighters who participated in the battle could not react to what was happening.

Wanda was the first person on earth to react to what was happening. There was no reason to explain it, it was as if it were a pure sixth sense, and she knew what to do in that instant.

Simply explaining the follow-up task to the people around her, she immediately took off into the air, used a teleportation spell and hurriedly left the battleship, and returned to Earth in an instant.

As if guided by her body's instincts, or her intuition as a woman, she flew back towards her house without hesitation. She hooked her finger from afar, opened the window, flew into the living room and landed.

After only a few seconds of waiting, a blue electric current flashed in the space. The chaotic spatial rift opened out of thin air, opening a circular portal. The black-gold armor slowly walked out, and the chaos immediately closed.

All the rough stones went out at the same time, and the armor dimmed instantly. It opened in the middle, and Michael, with a tired face, walked out, his steps light and unsteady.

Wanda hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed him.

"You did it." She laughed brightly, "It's settled, right?" ”

Michael nodded and touched her head with a smile: "Yes, this time it's completely over." ”

"What about you...... You okay? Wanda was a little concerned. Shirley had explained to her what a burden the six Rough Stones would take on the user, and she could now clearly feel that Michael's vitality was weaker than ever, like a candle about to be blown out.

"Don't worry. I...... At least alive. ”

Originally, he wanted to say it very well, but after thinking about it carefully, he seemed to feel that he didn't believe it, so he changed his words.

Wanda helped him sit down in the room and sighed softly.

"Great, you don't know how worried I am. I know you're fighting outside, but I can't help you......"

"Actually, I think you've helped me enough." Michael shrugged, "I can't fight outside and take care of this side of the planet, thanks to you here." And additionally......"

He paused, and the eyes that looked at her became serious.

“...... If I didn't know that you were here waiting for me to come back...... If it weren't for that commitment, I probably wouldn't have been able to keep it. ”

Wanda was held by him, her little face was slightly red, and she whispered vaguely, "Anyway...... It's good that you're back. ”

Michael looked out the window at the sky.

"So, how about this side of Earth?"

"It's fine. Thanks to the Kree and Skrulls who held off each other's main teams in the universe, the pressure on Earth has been reduced a lot. And the resistance of our allies on Earth also played a vital role. ”

She said and smiled, "It's incredible." Those who try to invade us, those who want to destroy us, end up being our most important allies. I think only you can do that.

Actually, you always give me this feeling, as if you had expected such a day, and you have been preparing for this moment from the very beginning. ”

Michael shook his head.

"You think of me so greatly. I'm just an ordinary person, all I do is take one step at a time and that's it. ”

"Or maybe you're too modest."

Michael pondered for a moment.

"In fact, I'm thinking about retirement."

"Okay, okay, then I'm going to retire with you." Wanda nodded repeatedly.

She stared at Michael for a few seconds.

"Wait, are you serious?"

"Of course." Michael nodded, "The future of the earth has been clarified, and the system of the Heavenly Sword has been perfected, as long as it is done step by step, it will guide this world to the right track." What else do you need me to do? ”

Wanda scratched her head and thought for a moment, "Hmm...... Save the world? ”

Michael smiled, "I've done enough of this. In the future, I think Heavenly Sword, Aegis, and Avengers will be able to take on this job. ”

"Well, that doesn't sound bad." Wanda said seriously, "You have done enough. ”

"I have one last thing to do when I want to retire...... But that's okay later. Now, at this very moment, I have one more thing to do that may have been done a long time ago. ”

"Huh? What the? ”

Michael looked at her with a smirk: "What do you say?" You've been thinking that for a long time, haven't you? ”

Wanda was stunned, and then as if she suddenly thought of something, her face instantly turned red to the base of her neck.

She looked away: "Don't...... Don't talk nonsense, I didn't ......."

"Uh-huh."

Michael gently put his arm around her head and pressed her lips. Wanda closed her eyes, and for a moment it seemed as if her brain was blank.
