There was a bang, and it was another heavy punch. Blood began to flow from the corners of Thanos' mouth. But without the slightest pause, he turned around and punched back. Simple straight punches, by now, his attacks have lost their skill. It's all about fighting for your life.

However, it was only then that he finally understood the gap between the two sides. The other party seems to be just a human being, but the power of ** has exceeded his imagination. Thanos has been in the universe for so many years, and he has never met an opponent who can crush him on the **. And the opponent's fighting skills are also in a crushing state.

"I don't understand, why didn't you kill me? You are far more powerful than I ever imagined. You could have killed me a long time ago. Why, just to humiliate me? After being knocked down again, Thanos finally spoke.

"Almost, I just feel sorry for the lives that died at your hands. They would have been able to take control of their own lives. ”

"Hehe, I thought a being like you would understand what I was thinking. Can't you see? This universe has begun to reach its limits. The endless growth of life has begun to overwhelm the universe. I'm saving this universe. In the end, Thanos was already a little hysterical.

"I'm not going to convince you on this issue, Thanos. It is indeed a fact that this universe is gradually approaching its upper limit. But for me, that's not the point. The difference between us is that you believe that maintaining the balance of the universe is the first priority, and for this you do not hesitate to slaughter the entire universe. But for me, there is another, more important thing, and that is free will. ”

"Free will. Why don't you look at all those cowardly and filthy beings on Earth. They are just a bunch of cosmic moths, and they also deserve free will. ”

"......Well, look at the whole universe. Earthlings are indeed one of the worst races. It took thousands of years of civil war, suppressing their own level of technology. Immerse yourself in film, music, art, and other things that do not really help the progress of human processes. However, they still exist, which shows that the universe recognizes this race. And for me, when a life realizes what it is, it gains the right to live. It doesn't matter what way they survive. That's all their own business. There is no external force that is entitled to deprive him of his life. ”

"But the universe is already overwhelmed. Someone has to step up and guide this. ”

"In my world, there used to be a phrase that is very apt here. Life, there will always be a way out. If they can't find it, let them make their own choice. But as a life in this universe, no one is qualified to play the role of a god. You're strong, Sanos. It's almost one of the closest beings to gods in this universe. But you are still not a god, and it seems to me that this universe does not need gods. ”

"If you look at the history of all civilizations, you will find that life has always needed the guidance of the gods. Even without me, there would be other beings doing this. You're not from this universe, how many times can you block it? ”

"Honestly, I don't want to interfere once. I'm only here for the Infinity Stones. Lin Xuan's right hand moved slightly, and the Infinity Gauntlet in Thanos' left hand directly detached from his left hand and flew to Lin Xuan's hand.

Lin Xuan's mind moved, and the green Time Gem and the crimson Reality Stone slowly flew out of his body and were inlaid into the Infinity Gauntlet. At this point, the Infinity Gauntlet has finally collected all six Infinity Stones. Lin Xuan put the Infinity Gauntlet on his hand. In an instant, despite the cushion of the Infinity Gauntlet, Lin Xuan still felt that kind of energy that was so huge that it was almost endless.

What kind of energy does the crystallization of a universe contain? Originally, Lin Xuan didn't have an exact concept, but now he knew it. The strength of the law crystal, which was condensed by the purest power of the source, was even beyond the limit of what his body could bear. In other words, without the Infinity Gauntlet, Lin Xuan would not be able to withstand the superposition of the six gems intact. At this time, Lin Xuan couldn't help but be glad that he hadn't rashly forcibly absorbed all the Infinity Stones.

It's just that after mastering all the gems, Lin Xuan still sensed that something was wrong. He clearly felt the enhancement that all the gems had brought him. But something seems to have gone wrong with the soul gem.

In the original movie, there was no positive representation of the ability of the Soul Gem. Therefore, Lin Xuan did not have a clear concept of soul gems. But with his realm, when he controls the soul gem, he will naturally be able to clearly perceive everything in it.

Part of the law of the Soul Gem is missing. Yes, Lin Xuan could feel that this soul gem looked intact though. However, some of these permissions are missing. Now Lin Xuan was able to sense all the souls in this universe by using soul gems. But it's just a sense. Lin Xuan could only rely on his divine sense to judge, who did that soul belong to?

And according to Lin Xuan's inference, if the soul gem was urged with all his might, it should be able to make him understand all the souls in the entire universe. If it is related to the Red Skull in the original book, it is not difficult to guess that she is cursed and knows everyone in the universe. The Red Skull stole some of the permissions.

The reason for this is not clear to Lin Xuan. But there is one thing that can be cleared. The Red Skull gets some access to the gem. But at the same time, he was trapped in Vormir with the Soul Gem. That's why he directs outsiders to find the Infinity Stones. Because only when the Infinity Stones leave that altar can he himself be free. This also explains why a selfish person like the Red Skull would be willing to be a guide.

"Now that you have done it, you have accomplished what no other living beings in this universe have ever done. Collect six Infinity Stones. What are you going to do, rule the universe, or keep them in your collection? ”

"No, it wouldn't be a waste to store such a powerful force. I've arranged a place for them, and I'll take them out of this universe to save my world. ”

"Hehe, do you want to completely eliminate the so-called source of calamity? This is what you humans have always done. ”

"No, I don't think that taking away the Infinity Stones is removing the source of calamity. There will always be something else that will cause wars and disasters. I took them just because I needed them. To be honest, I've never been bothered to use such a clumsy excuse to disguise my needs. ”

"What about me? You should kill me right now. You know, as soon as you leave, I will immediately attack Earth and wipe out your friends. Kill me, so that you can prevent future troubles. ”

"Believe it or not, the future crisis of this planet is far from what you, Thanos, can represent. They will also experience many more enemies that are much more terrifying than you. But they were able to survive in the end. ”

Lin Xuan shook his left hand, and the six gems lit up neatly. The starfleet surrounding the Earth's periphery was suddenly enveloped in a purple light. Immediately after that, the energy of the Power Gem began to infiltrate all the warships with impunity. Tens of thousands of space warships slowly turned to ashes in the universe like that. Silent, but the power it represents shocked all the lives who saw this scene.

"So, I'm not going to kill you, Sanos. Because I know that death is a relief for you. Someone deep inside you is even expecting death. The burden you have imposed on yourself is even overwhelming on yourself. Keep alive, Thanos, it's your curse. ”

…….………………

Earth, for the earthlings, only a short time has passed from Lin Xuan's appearance to the destruction of Starfleet. Because most of the time, Lin Xuan and Thanos fought in static time. In their opinion, the last superhero to appear completely destroyed the entire enemy fleet in just a few minutes.

"Is it over?" Dr. Banna, who had recovered from his Hulk state, said.

"I don't know, their fight just now is beyond our knowledge. But it looks like our side has a better chance of winning. ”

It wasn't until Lin Xuan opened the wormhole and returned to the earth that the entire earth finally breathed a sigh of relief. Endless cheers followed. Most people didn't actually know Lin Xuan, but they could at least recognize him as an earthling. And the purple sweet potato essence just now has disappeared. This is clearly a victory for the earthlings. Even the leaders of various countries who have been paying close attention to all this can't help but cheer. After all, no one wants to bet that fifty percent.

For the Earth in the Marvel Universe, this sudden catastrophe of the world-destroying level ended in an even more unbelievable way. Once again, the superheroes have saved the world. Everything, just like the previous disasters. Still, someone noticed the difference this time. At least this time, the U.S. government has lost face.

And in this process, Captain America Steve Rogers has made his presence felt. Many people already have a vague premonition of something. And if their conjecture is true, then the entire American power apparatus may usher in a violent shock.

Post-disaster reconstruction and other work are in full swing. It's just not as big as expected. Because the real damage to the planet from this battle is not really great. The real image is the impact on people's inner world, as well as their worldview and values. Tens of thousands of space warships have obscured the entire earth, and this kind of picture has completely subverted the imagination of human beings for the universe. In the hearts of the vast majority of people, they even began to panic about the universe.

And in this time period, there is another extremely conspicuous phenomenon. That is, there have been a lot of demonstrations all over the country. They strongly protested against the current U.S. administration. From their inaction on the disaster, to their later passive avoidance of war, to the behavior of their wanted captain and others, the reckoning began in turn.

Originally, the government's wanted notice was still justified. But in the battle before the invasion of Thanos. The government has not responded in the slightest. In addition to dropping nuclear bombs at New York City and finally blowing up the missile base in Nedava. Their performance is both incompetent and cowardly. Only those women who were wanted by them stood in front of the enemy with their physical bodies.

To be sure, no government can do anything to deal with it effectively, but it has no choice but to happen in the United States. And the American people are obviously not prepared to be reasonable at such a moment. They are just brainlessly venting their inner dissatisfaction and inner panic.

This back-and-forth contrast has made the entire U.S. government synonymous with incompetence. And more and more people are starting to call for Steve Rogers to enter politics and even run for president.

"Running for president is not that simple. Even if you are popular, you can be elected president. But the actual power will still be in the hands of the consortia behind the scenes. You can't do anything. "The Women's Federation is deliberating on this matter. Black Widow disputed this. In her understanding, the captain is not the kind of person who can be president.

"No, it's not like the captain doesn't have any support. First of all, the middle and lower classes of the people will support the captain. And in the upper echelons, we can at least guarantee that S.H.I.E.L.D. can be on the side of the captain. ”

"Stark Group, Pym Technologies, and Osborne Group will all be on the captain's side. If we can't influence those established backroom consortia. Then we will form our own consortium. Stark followed.

"Having said that, I think everything depends on the captain. Steve, I think you need to take a stand. All of us have your back, and you have the prestige to sit in that seat. But then there will be unprecedented pressures. So, what's your idea? Falcon finally turned the conversation to the captain, and no matter what they said, it was only the captain who made the final decision.

"Being president of the United States doesn't change the world. In fact, even this country is very difficult to change. If we want to really change the world, we need bigger plans. The captain, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke. And when he opened his mouth, everyone was stunned.

"I've probably guessed what you're trying to say. But I don't think the current process of human civilization has yet developed to that extent. Is this almost impossible to achieve? ”

"Why can't it be? How many times has Earth been invaded by aliens. The first few times we at least had room to fight back. But this time, whether everyone admits it or not. We all rely on outsiders to win wars. The whole world has seen the scale of the alien space battleship. I saw the weakness of the armed forces of various countries. Humans are almost powerless in the face of attacks from outsiders. We need unity, solidarity for all people in the truest sense of the word. For this reason, I do not plan to run for president of the United States. I'm going to do something much harder. Promote the unity of the human world. ”
