Chapter 139: The Time of War
Ethan was standing in the middle of the field, his every move was watched by the people around him, everyone watched the Cosmic Cube destroyed by him, Tony, a person who knows how valuable the Cosmic Cube is, his cheeks twitched even more, and he was depressed about Ethan's behavior as a loser - he very much wanted to study the secrets of the Cosmic Cube thoroughly and prove that he surpassed his father Howard.
Originally, he thought that this thing was in Ethan's hands, and he had the opportunity to borrow it to study, but he didn't expect to witness the destruction of the Cosmic Rubik's Cube today.
He also knew that the Cosmic Cube was just a shell, and the real core of this thing was the Infinity Stones hidden inside, and Ethan suddenly destroyed the Cosmic Rubik's Cube, obviously to take out the Infinity Stones.
And the reason for this, of course, is for the next battle.
Ethan held the fragment of the Cosmic Cube in his right hand, and with a few slight strokes of his thumb on it, the space gem buried in the middle revealed its true appearance.
This is a blue gemstone with an overall oval shape but a not smooth surface, and even has many edges and corners, exuding blue brilliance throughout.
It is such an inconspicuous-looking small gem, containing amazing energy, Ethan pressed this gem with his thumb, gently shook his hand, shook off the Rubik's cube fragments in his palm, and only this gem was left in his hand.
"Sure enough...... The direct use of the Infinity Stones and the use of power through the Cosmic Cube is not a level at all. ”
Just as Ethan was feeling the huge energy in the gem, Thor also came here under the leadership of Loki, and of course Jane Foster, Thor's current girlfriend.
Thor, who didn't know what was going on, saw his best friends and parents gathered here, smiling and greeting everyone.
"What is this going to do?
Grabbing a fruit from the table and taking a bite, Thor looked down at what he was wearing as everyone in front of him stared at him.
"Oh, my outfit is really not suitable for a banquet, you guys wait a minute, I'll go change my clothes. ”
He had just searched for the Dark Elves from outside, and he was wearing armor and carrying Thor's hammer in his hand, and he really didn't look like he was attending a banquet.
However, today was not going to be a banquet, and Loki stopped Thor directly.
"You're a great fit for what's next, you don't need to change your clothes. ”
Thor came to Odin in a daze, and finally understood why he was here and what he wanted to do under Odin's instructions.
"Fighting Ethan?" Thor looked back at Ethan, who was standing in the field, "All out?"
He wasn't sure, although he loved fighting, but why fight Ethan?
"When this battle is over, you'll understand everything. ”
There is no way to explain some things well, and there is no way to explain such things as forcing Thor to explode his potential, so he can only wait until the battle is over.
Thor looked around and saw that everyone was staring at him, and he knew that there was no way to avoid this battle.
What's more, as the god of thunder in Asgard, he himself is not afraid of fighting, his only concern is whether Ethan can withstand his own attack?
"Don't underestimate Ethan, his strength is very strong. ”
Loki knew his brother better, and when he saw Thor's tangled face, he understood what he was worried about.
It doesn't matter what the fight is, but if he accidentally beats his best friend, that's not something he wants to see.
In order to prevent Thor from deliberately releasing water, Loki also specially reminded: "It's best to put away the heart of underestimating the opponent, otherwise you will be beaten very badly." ”
Also as a mage, Loki has a clearer understanding of Ethan's strength than anyone else.
Even without the power of the Cosmic Rubik's Cube, Ethan's current strength is very terrifying, and now he has deliberately taken out the Infinity Stones, even he doesn't know how strong Ethan is in this state.
"I see. ”
Thor also walked to the center of the field with a hammer, looked at Ethan, who was looking at him with a smile on the other side, and beckoned: "I didn't expect to have a chance to compete with you." ”
Ethan maintained a smile and nodded: "Don't treat this battle as a competition, or you will suffer." ”
As he spoke, Ethan took out a glove and came out.
This glove is a very ordinary fingerless glove, and there is no special magic attached to it, the only special point is that there is a metal block on the back of the hand, which can block attacks such as blades during combat.
Ethan will take out this thing because if he wants to use the space gem in battle, he needs a carrier, and he can't always hold it in his hand, which is not convenient to use, and it will affect the battle.
After thinking about it, he chose this very ordinary glove.
Putting the glove on his right hand, he then pinched the space gem in his left hand and aimed at the metal surface on the back of his hand, while his right hand, which was clenched into a fist, mobilized his magic and attracted to the energy released from the space gem pinched in his left hand.
With a 'ding' sound, the space gem collided with the metal surface, as if it was originally an ornament on a glove, perfectly integrated with the metal surface.
I don't know if the Infinity Stones themselves have this property, Ethan didn't use magic to make any special changes to the metal surface, and he completed this setting, he can feel that he can freely use the power of the Space Stones, and will not be affected in any way because the material of this glove is very ordinary.
The guess in my heart is estimated that it is because the energy of the space gem itself is very stable, so the requirements for the carrier are not high.
Casually moving his right hand, to make sure that the stone would not suddenly fly away because of his fist, Ethan turned to look at Thor opposite.
"Sorry to keep you waiting. ”
Thor nodded, he had been watching Ethan's movements and had not suddenly launched a sneak attack: it was a fair match to see him, and of course he wouldn't sneak attack.
At the same time, I also noticed that the blue gem was actually the hidden space gem in the Cosmic Rubik's Cube.
"So this competition, do you want to test the power of the space gem?"
Thor thought he had guessed the truth, and if that was the case, he would have to do his best, after all, he still knew the prestige of the Infinity Stones.
"Let it be so. Ethan glanced at Odin, who was sitting on the sidelines: "It looks like everyone is waiting impatiently, we should start too." ”
Thor didn't say anything more, set up a stance, reminded Ethan to be careful!', and then raised his hammer and rushed straight at Ethan.
As the God of Thunder of Asgard, Thor's combat power is very strong, even if you don't consider the terrifying thunder power that he can unleash with Thor's hammer, his own physical fitness is not comparable to ordinary people.
Can a normal person get up and continue to fight after being punched and kicked by the Hulk in the front? He can even fight the Hulk with his physical strength. This shows how terrible Thor's physical fitness is, if it was the former Ethan, he didn't have to be hit head-on, even if he just rubbed the side, he would be hit hard, and there was no other choice but to dodge.
Now......
Ethan looked at Thor who rushed up very calmly, his right hand was lightly shaken, and the space gem on the back of his hand shone brightly, and then Thor swung the hammer and passed through Ethan's body.
"Illusion?"
Thor's first reaction was similar to that of Malekith, the Ethan in front of him was just an illusion, not an entity. Thor knew that Ethan was a mage, and he had seen similar tactics with Loki I don't know how many times.
Just as he ignored Ethan's 'phantom' behind him, Ethan turned around very leisurely, reached out and grabbed Thor's red cloak, used all his strength to directly pick Thor up, and then slammed it on the ground.
Rumble!
As Odin's cultivation ground, this place may have been specially reinforced, Ethan also burst out with all his strength this time, and his current strength is also far beyond the level of ordinary people, but after Thor slammed on the ground, in addition to making a loud noise and kicking up a lot of dust, the ground was not destroyed because of this.
The ground wasn't broken, but Thor was a little confused, lying there looking at Ethan in front of him, still not figuring out what was going on.
If it was a normal match, Ethan would have reached out to pull Thor up, and then the two sides would have set up before continuing.
This time is different, Odin deliberately emphasizes that he must fight with the heart of killing Thor, this battle is to let Thor really face a desperate situation and stimulate the potential in his body.
So when Thor was stunned, Ethan launched a direct attack on Thor who was lying on the ground.
The sudden burst of blinding fire brought Thor back to his senses, and a pair of huge flame wings stretched out from Ethan's back and slammed straight into Thor on the ground.
The terrifying scorching breath made the air around him much warmer, and Thor even felt his breathing become uncomfortable.
"Interesting!"
Thor was not dissatisfied with Ethan's actions, such an all-out fight had always been his favorite, and Ethan's attack inspired his competitive spirit, and he picked up Thor's hammer with his right hand, and soared directly into the air with the power of Thor's hammer forward.
Instead of dodging backwards, he condensed a powerful thunderbolt on his hammer and rushed head-on towards the pair of flame wings.
Thundered!
The collision of two very different but equally formidable forces produced a powerful explosion.
There was a surging blast of flames and lightning everywhere, and Thor flew upside down from the raging flames, apparently shaken by the force of the impact.
Compared to Thor, who looked a little embarrassed with flames on his cloak, Ethan still stood calmly among the countless flames and thunder without being affected at all, not even the dust sticking to the slightest.
