Brad fought hard with Thanos, and his body was also stagnant, taking two steps back, and the breath in his chest stagnated, even if he wanted to resist the power of the Infinity Stones, it seemed that he was indeed a little reluctant. Thanos Teng Teng took two steps back, but he also felt more and more that this human was tricky, and after some secret thinking, he finally decided not to fight anymore, and roared and soared into the sky, flying away from this place like a rocket.

The strong enemy retreated, and several people relaxed their tense nerves only now. If Brad hadn't arrived in time, it would have been absolutely impossible for them to repel Thanos, who had two Infinity Stones in hand, and the situation was really dangerous. But Eric also felt a little strange and asked, "Aren't you traveling around the universe?" What, have you already moved to the cosmic border? ”

Brad stared at him for a moment, and finally decided not to tell him the truth about the prophecy for the time being, so he said lightly: "It's nothing, it's just homesick." ”

Eric also felt that he didn't seem to have said anything, but since the other party didn't want to say the purpose of his return, it was inconvenient for him to get to the bottom of it, so he turned to say: "But it's really good time for you to come back." ”

"Mind talking about what Thanos was brought to Earth by?"

Eric sighed and said, "To be honest, I still don't quite understand it yet...... Let's talk as we go. ”

On the way back to the city, Eric briefly explained that AIM had recently researched something called a "cube" that caused disputes between all parties, and then the zodiac intervened, and Raven found the other party's stronghold, until finally their behind-the-scenes boss Thanos himself arrived. Before Thanos arrived, Eric had sent all the signs back to the prototype, and when Eric dealt with Thanos, Raven had packed them up and taken them to Aegis and informed the Avengers, who should have been waiting on the Aegis Mothership by this time.

Because of the stakes this time, Superman's side also contacted the Justice League, and everyone gathered on the mothership again. Tony and Dr. Banner worked together to study the abilities of the Twelve Apostles, and found that the twelve were just ordinary teenagers endowed with powerful powers, and their own genes were no different from ordinary people. Tony made a simple energy damping ring to limit their abilities, and they all lost their ability to transform, just like ordinary prisoners, and only a glass wall locked up all twelve people.

The heroes gathered behind the glass, and Tony asked, "Now, it's time for the villain to confess." Tell me, how did you get involved with a cosmic tyrant, and how did he get to Earth? ”

The twelve disempowered apostles sat in their cells slouching, as if they didn't even bother to look at him.

Martian Manhunter tried to use mind reading on these boys, but he frowned for a long time and said, "Their minds are protected by strong fortresses, and it is very difficult for them to force a breakthrough as long as they concentrate. ”

This is indeed reasonable, Thanos is indeed a good hand at mind manipulation.

Nick Fury said, "You boys did make a fuss, maybe it made you think you were amazing, but anyway, that's over." Now you have to think about a realistic issue - be honest and cooperate, and we can make a deal that will help you get a little less punished for the rest of your lives. The reality is that the time for you to ascend to heaven and earth has passed. ”

The red-haired girl of Virgo among the apostles chuckled and said, "I'm sorry, but we probably won't agree with that." We have helped our master get what he wants, and that can help him do anything. The cage won't be able to trap us for long, so we'll take a final look and see who will have the last laugh. ”

As soon as she finished speaking, Eric burst out laughing. He stepped forward, dressed in armor. Behind the glass, all the young people felt dangerous hostility through the glass, and they all stood up vigilantly. Fury also asked, "What are you going to do?" ”

Eric stretched out his hand through the glass, and the purple chaos magic suddenly lifted the girl's figure and hung it in the air, binding her throat tightly. The girl was suffocating and red, struggling as if she were about to die. Everyone behind Eric was taken aback, and Superman stepped forward and said, "Put her down!" ”

Eric only ignored it and said coldly: "Tell me, if I were Thanos, I would have such power, and I would have obtained what I wanted on Earth...... Why should I care about the life or death of a few dregs whose value has been squeezed dry? Do you really think there's even the slightest chance that he'll come back and pick you up to his cosmic empire? ”

The young people looked at each other in fright, and after a long period of ideological struggle, someone finally spoke: "Okay, okay, we can explain." We'll tell you what Thanos wants, and we'll even know where he was operating while he was on Earth. But you have to make sure that we can be taken lightly. ”

"It depends on the importance of the content you provide." Fury Road.

Eric snorted, letting go of the girl's hand. Her face was almost discolored, and she fell to the ground and coughed for a long time, but she still couldn't slow down.

The young man said, "Maybe you should know...... AIM has recently developed something quite remarkable that doesn't get enough to get Thanos' attention – the 'Cosmic Cube'. ”

"Tell me about it." Tony asked, "What's that?" ”

The young man said, "The cosmic cube has absorbed the energy of another dimension, and it has terrifying power beyond our cognition. I don't know the details, but I've only heard that it seems to have a terrifying ability to change reality, and it's almost a universal weapon. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone naturally showed expressions of surprise and doubt, obviously it was not easy to believe in the existence of a universal wishing machine through a few words. But Eric remembered that there really seemed to be such a terrible thing in the Marvel world, but he hadn't thought about it before.

The young man continued, "It is a fact that you believe it or not. He has given us the power to make us the 'signs of the zodiac', and his only task is to bring this cube to him. It took us a while to get our hands on it, but luckily we managed to get our hands on it from AIM. ”

"Well, it's debatable whether such a dangerous thing is luckier in the hands of Murdoch or Thanos...... And then what? Tony asked, "The cube, where is it now?" ”

"Thanos came and recycled it himself." Another young man said, "Now he's in Thanos' hands, but I can tell you where he is." ”

"I have one more question." Superman suddenly asked, "Since Thanos is really as you say, he has countless galactic fleets in his hands and countless generals under his command...... Why does he need to bewitch earthlings to serve him? Why didn't he just bring a fleet? If his Invincible Armada were to be brought over, it would not be difficult to conquer the earth, right? ”

Green Lantern said: "I can explain this, because the earth is a forbidden area. ”

"Forbidden Zone?" All eyes were on him.

Green Lantern nodded and said, "Since the new rule after the dark night, extraterrestrial civilizations are not allowed to interfere with the civilization of the earth, and even Thanos does not dare to openly challenge this accepted rule. It seems that because of rumors, the Earth still poses a threat to the entire universe. The Galactic Council decided to designate Earth as a no-touch zone, mainly aimed at a dangerous leader like Thanos, who is keen on dictatorship, and I don't think that's a bad thing for us, at least so that we don't have to fight the alien army twice in three days. ”

The captain asked, "But what reason is there to think that we are dangerous?" ”

"I don't know about that."

"That can be talked about later." Superhuman, "Now, we have to find out where Thanos is, and there is a cosmic crisis waiting for us to stop it." ”
