Chapter 146: A New Krypton Star (Part I)
In the setting of the Marvel Universe, there are a total of six Infinity Stones, the Mind Gem on Loki's Scepter, which are the Cosmic Cube, the Aether Particle, and the small ball that appears in "Guardians of the Galaxy", and the remaining two have not yet been determined.
There is no shortage of artifacts in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, such as Thor's hammer, Odin's scepter, and even Loki's scepter, but the Infinity Stones are very different from these ordinary artifacts.
First of all, the Infinity Stones themselves are energy bodies, and their energy is infinite.
It has been hinted in the film and television, as Fury said, that "the cosmic cube is likely to be the key to the discovery of eternal energy." ”
Odin mentioned to Thor, "Each of these ancient weapons that could bring infinite destruction to the universe." ”
And "Guardians of the Galaxy" once mentioned, "The owners of those ancient weapons can destroy any civilization." ”
From this, it can be seen that the Cosmic Cube may contain the principle of discovering infinite energy, and Thanos's subordinates also said that they want to use the Cosmic Cube to look at the whole universe, and the owner of the aether particle, the dark elf Malekith, once almost brought the entire universe into darkness, and the small ball in "Guardians of the Galaxy" can easily destroy any galaxy.
Secondly, the gem itself cannot be destroyed.
The leader of the dark elves, Malekis, said that the aether was impossible to destroy, and Thor's grandfather said that the aether was too powerful to be destroyed, which seemed to confirm Malekith's words.
In fact, it is not difficult to understand that the Infinity Stones are difficult to destroy, first of all, its power is almost infinite, and to destroy it, it should have at least the same energy as it. Secondly, Infinity Stones are energy bodies, not pure solids. The Third Infinity Stone is extremely old, and according to collectors in Guardians of the Galaxy, it is the product of the Big Bang (six singularities), as old as the universe (if not older).
Produced for a long time, containing mysterious principles, infinite energy. This reminded Wei Ran of the innate spirit weapon in the novel, is the Infinity Stone an alternative innate spirit weapon? There are special laws of the world in it?
Thirdly, it is difficult for Infinity Stones to be completely absorbed by a living organism or to be absorbed and controlled by a living entity for a long time.
Even the Dark Elves, who once had access to the Aether Particle, could not control it, and the Aether Particle was simply attached to Malekith's body. Malekith himself is just a carrier, just like Thor's girlfriend, Malekith extracts the particles from Thor's girlfriend, just as the particles are obtained by Asgard after his death and finally given to the collector for safekeeping. Secondly. Malekith only harnesses the energy of the ether particles, not absorbs them.
Also, how many of the Infinity Stones exist in the universe?
Those who are well versed in the principles of the Infinity Stones are like the Dark Elf leader Malekith. Wei Ran knows that there are Odin, as well as the Collector, Ronan, Thanos, etc., all of which are the existence of overlords in the universe.
The most concerning is Thanos, who is not only closely connected to the Infinity Stones, but also who is behind all of them.
How strong is Thanos? Wei Ran had no way of knowing.
First of all, Thanos is a very good person to understand the Infinity Stones, and he is one of the few people in the movie who knows about the Infinity Stones. Also one of the very few people who knows where the 6 gemstones are. Moreover, he also knows the principle of the Infinity Stones very well, and the subordinate of Thanos in "Avengers 1" once told Loki that it was Thanos who gave him ancient knowledge, and it was also Thanos who handed over the scepter to Loki (first gave it to his subordinates and asked his subordinates to transfer it to Loki on his behalf).
The ancient knowledge given to Loki should be the mind gem and the method of control of the cosmic cube. Moreover, in the conversation with Thor, Loki mentioned that he himself saw the true power of the Cosmic Cube, which shows that his ability to use the cube to transmit to Earth is not something he has learned, but Thanos has taught him. Moreover, he grew up in the Divine Domain since he was a child, and it is unlikely that he will learn the control principle of the Cosmic Cube.
Secondly, Thanos is someone who has a strength that is definitely higher than Ronan's level. From the conversation between Ronan and Thanos, it can be seen that Thanos is enough to take Ronan away, and Ronan is absolutely unable to resist. And. Ronan's subordinates also said that Thanos is the person with the most destructive power in the universe, and Ronan finally turned his face with Thanos only after getting the power of the gem did he dare to call Thanos out of the sky.
How strong is Ronan? With his physique, which can withstand the power of the Infinity Stones in a short period of time, it is absolutely unparalleled by others, and it is likely to completely destroy the Hulk.
The above inferences are all from film and television works. But the information is absolutely reliable. Although this is a real world, far from what the movie can describe, the setting of the movie can be used here, and it is an inexplicable fantasy world.
The Mind Gem is in Wei Ran's hands, and the Cosmic Cube is indirectly in Wei Ran's hands, so it can be said that Wei Ran and Thanos have no possibility of being friends at all. can only be a competitor
Fury and the entire S.H.I.E.L.D. are like an axis that keeps turning, although Clark agreed to join S.H.I.E.L.D., but because the two sides are not too familiar with each other, it takes a period of time to understand and familiarize, so S.H.I.E.L.D. does not limit Clark's range of activities in terms of gaining Clark's favor, and puts forward restrictions on him.
After repeated invitations, Clark finally couldn't give Tony's affection and came to Tony's mansion as a guest.
"You look good, S.H.I.E.L.D. is a bird that eats people and doesn't spit out bones, and I've known you since I left with them that you can't escape their clutches." Tony joked as he walked over to the bar in the living room, "Want to have a drink?" I have everything here, all the best wines in the world. ”
"Well, bring me a stout, thank you." Clark laughed at Tony's words, his joining S.H.I.E.L.D. was not child's play, but carefully considered, S.H.I.E.L.D. is an official organization, and the organization's philosophy is very compatible with his beliefs. Moreover, there are many capable people in S.H.I.E.L.D., which makes Clark feel like he has found an organization.
"I have to say, you're not going to do me." Tony patted his forehead, there were a lot of drinks on the shelf, but there was no beer, which he wouldn't normally drink in the living room.
"Then give me a drink." Clark smiled, not paying attention.
"No, no, no, you're my guest, and if you're a guest, of course I'll take care of you." Tony shook his head and said, "Jarvis, get some white beer from the warehouse." Luckily, I also like to drink beer, so I always have it in stock."
It didn't take long for a robot to come up with a metal crate and open it, revealing a dozen bottles of frozen beer.
"It's so convenient," Clark lamented, and in fact he has been refreshing his knowledge of the world in recent days.
"Like it? Artificial intelligence is a great scientific and technological achievement, it has completely changed our lives, liberated human beings from tedious manual labor, but unfortunately few people in this world agree with my concept. Tony lamented that he had tried to change the world with artificial intelligence, but the appearance of Ultron made his efforts laughing, "If you also like robots, I can give you a few." ”
"Thank you very much for your kindness, Mr. Tony, but I don't think I need them" Clark politely refused, this was a robot that was not worth mentioning in Tony's eyes, but every one of them was a very expensive luxury outside, and Clark didn't want to lose money or anything else.
"Just call me Tony, we're already friends, aren't we?" "Robots aren't just for you, there are people who need them more than you do, and my robots are very professional in caring for people," Tony said.
After a moment of hesitation, Clark could hear Tony talking about his elderly mother, and after thinking that his mother was living alone and not being by his side all the time, Clark finally nodded, "Thank you, Tony." (To be continued.) )
