Chapter 337: Psychic Shock
Seeing the explosion of the earth from the information and witnessing it are two different things, and the latter will have a stronger impact on people's hearts.
Seeing a planet the size of the Earth burst open like a rotten watermelon, spraying watermelons everywhere. Magma gushes out from the depths of the earth and quickly solidifies into gray-black stones, not much different from the coagulation of human blood. No sound could be transmitted in the vacuum, but the sound of countless life wails sounded in everyone's ears.
Earth is dead!
In front of everyone's eyes!
They didn't know what was going on Earth, but they could clearly see that most of those who survived the Earth's remains were Hydra's magnetic warriors, and only a few of the people they knew survived.
In fact, among the other fighters of S.H.I.E.L.D., there are also magnetic field fighters, but because of the previous purge of Hydra, those S.H.I.E.L.D. agents who are "suspected of Hydra" have been suspended, and their strong magnetic armor has also been confiscated.
And in the absence of the protection of the strong magnetic battle armor, those ordinary soldiers who have only a few days of magnetic field rotation are completely unable to survive the destruction of the earth.
The crowd on the ship quickly realized this.
"If we had stood up against Hydra when they began the purge, it might have ......," Tony muttered to himself.
"No maybe!" Steve rudely interrupted Tony, "We've discussed, it's all about the big picture!" We don't have any chance to make mistakes, and we can't afford to make mistakes! ”
Steve turned to Rocket and Nebula in the driver's seat and shouted, "Get out of here!" ”
Rocket and Nebula are both aliens, and they have no special feelings for Earth, so they immediately obey orders and start the spaceship.
"Captain, where is the target?"
"Which is closer, Vormir or Morag?"
"It's all pretty much the same. Anyway, it will take many space jumps to get there, and it will take at least a few months. Personally, I would suggest that we could actually go separately and split into two teams, each of which went to one place. ”
Steve hesitated for a moment and refused, "No, this universe is much more dangerous than ours, it's better to stick together and act together." We have a lot of time, so there's no need to rush. ”
He glanced at the people next to him, wanting to ask for the group's opinion, but everyone's eyes were firmly absorbed by the scene on the other side of the earth, and they couldn't take their eyes off it for a moment.
"Now the earth is gone, everyone is dead! My wife, children, friends, colleagues...... All of them! Clint had a gloomy face and trembled, "I don't know at all, what is the point of us sitting back and watching our loved ones die in this universe, even if we save our universe!" ”
"This universe is not the first time that the Earth has exploded, they have time gems that can turn back time and resurrect all the dead! We all know that! "Steve's mood is also very irritable, yelling at everyone viciously.
"That's different! Steve, we all know it's different! Rhodes muttered to himself with a glazed oversight.
"Nothing different!"
"We all know, Steve, that not all of us will be resurrected by going back in time. They will only turn back time to a certain point in time, and those who die before that time will really die and will not have a chance to be resurrected. When we arrived, we found that many of our acquaintances were gone, even powerful superheroes like Captain Marvel. ”
"So what? Abandon our responsibilities and fight evil like a superhero? Steve yelled, "Wouldn't I want to?" But I can't! We carry half of the life of the universe on our shoulders! We have to focus on the big picture! ”
Scott, who had been silent, suddenly interjected: "I don't know what you guys think, but for me, I really only care about the friends around me. As for those aliens...... I'm sorry, they don't die, it's my business! ”
Seeing Steve glaring at him, Scott hurriedly explained: "It's just my personal opinion, you know, I've never been a qualified superhero." I'm just an ordinary person, if it weren't for the fact that all the people I care about have disappeared, I wouldn't have gone to this dangerous universe to save the world. ”
Steve was furious and turned to look at the others.
Rocket Raccoon sat in the driver's seat, didn't look back, and waved his little paws, "Me too!" I just want to get my companions back, the little tree man, the praying mantis, the big silly guy, the green-skinned girl, and even that obnoxious, male dog who is in heat all day. But the rest of the guys who are running around in the universe all day long, who cares if they live or die? ”
Nebula was expressionless, "I just want to get my sister back." ”
Steve looked around at the rest of the group, and although none of them spoke, the expressions on their faces betrayed their thoughts.
】
What they want to save the most is actually only earthlings, relatives and friends living around them, not aliens who are not many light years away.
If Sanos had avoided Earth when he snapped his fingers, maybe they would have just assumed that this thing had not happened, and the only one who cared about life in the universe was probably only him, Steve Rogers.
Steve's face was pale, and what he saw in front of him almost subverted his perception of a superhero team.
In the face of a natural disaster of the level of the earth explosion, everyone finally chose to face the darkness in their hearts and no longer continue to be high-sounding.
The human heart is complex, and who doesn't know what they really value before making the final choice? But now, after the psychic shock of the destruction of the earth, they are convinced:
If they had to choose between cosmic beings and earth beings, they would choose earth beings.
If they had to choose between the creatures of Earth and their relatives and friends, they would choose their relatives and friends.
But that doesn't stop them from becoming superheroes, because they don't hesitate to sacrifice themselves if they had to choose between the creatures of Earth and themselves.
The courage to sacrifice is not in conflict with distinguishing between distant and close relatives.
They sacrifice themselves, not their loved ones!
Steve's mind was in a state of confusion, and he didn't know if he should continue with his original plan, but Rocket Raccoon's side was already impatient, and he patted the bridge and shouted, "Captain, where the hell are you going?" Give me a word! ”
"Then go to Wommel." Steve replied in a huff.
"Okay, then everyone sit down, let's go, to Vormir!"
As soon as the rocket pushes the starting lever, the spacecraft begins to accelerate, quickly reaching a critical speed, breaking through space and entering the space jump channel. Before entering, everyone couldn't help but look back at the earth, only to see that there was already a scuffle, stirring up the entire cosmic space. The fragments of the planet, which was already broken, were shocked into powder in the aftermath of the battle, and completely disappeared in that space.
The spaceship entered the state of jumping, and the scene in front of everyone's eyes was infinitely elongated, colorful and colorful, but everyone's mood was only gray. The spaceship jumped more than a dozen times in a row, and it had to jump out of the space passage, otherwise everyone's bodies would be unbearable.
The rocket controlled the spacecraft into a cruising state, headed in the direction of the target, and then stretched comfortably, and said to the people behind him: "Let's move freely!" Wait until everyone is back in shape, and then perform a space jump. Astronautics is always a long journey, and you have to learn to relax. ”
He jumped out of his seat, came up to Steve, patted him on the shoulder, and said:
"Captain, don't think about it so much. Even if we don't consider half of the life in the entire universe, we still have to bring back the six Infinity Stones, so it's not wrong not to make a difference. Whether our goal is to save the universe or our loved ones, the means are the same, and only by collecting the Infinity Stones can we achieve our goal. ”
Steve glanced up at Rocket and shook his head slowly, "Maybe it's like this for you and Nebula, but for us superheroes of Earth, it's different. ”
"Our relatives and friends are all on Earth, even if this world is not our timeline, it is a parallel world, we still can't sit back and watch those who look almost exactly the same as our relatives and friends die like this."
"Especially, when we had a chance to stop this from happening."
"If we hadn't cowered and fought Hydra at the earliest, things wouldn't have gotten worse to the point where the Earth had blown up."
Rocket scratched his head, "This universe has been blown up several times, maybe everyone here is used to it!" ”
Steve smiled wryly and leaned back in his seat, "I now very much doubt that the earth in this universe has deteriorated to such an extent because those superheroes did not stand up to fight against the forces of evil in the first place. Then after appeasement again and again, the evil forces became more and more rampant, and finally when the superhero side could not bear it, all the contradictions always broke out, and they could only set off a big war, and then blow up the earth. But the superheroes have not finished eliminating evil, and a new round of vicious circle has begun after turning back time. ”
"Humanity never seems to learn any lessons from history. During World War II, it seemed to be the same. Again and again, appeasement eventually led to the bitter fruit of world war. ”
"The connivance of evil is a crime against good, and in the end the bitter fruit will fall on everyone."
"When there is an avalanche, no snowflake is innocent."
"For the destruction of the earth, all those who live on it cannot escape their responsibility."
Xingyun had been listening, and now seeing that Steve seemed to have signs of regret, and the other people's attitudes were also relaxed, he couldn't help frowning, and said coldly: "Then what are you going to do?" Go back and interfere with them? ”
Steve let out a long sigh, his face full of sadness, and said with a wry smile: "The worst thing is that we have lost the best chance to intervene. Now the war has broken out, and our force is too weak to interfere in the life-and-death struggle between them. We go back now, not to help them, but to drag them back. ”
"That's what makes us miserable and even desperate."
"There's nothing you can do!"
"There is only one way to go now, collect the Infinity Stones, borrow the power of the Infinity Stones to increase our overall strength, and then intervene in the affairs of the Earth when we have enough leverage."
Rocket nodded slightly, bared his teeth and said, "Understood!" In other words, you just complain and complain, but you still have to run all the way to the dark. Everything is still as planned, continue to collect Infinity Stones! ”
"Uh...... You summed it up brilliantly! ”
After a few hours of cruising, seeing that everyone had almost recovered their strength, the rocket took over the spacecraft again and began to jump in space again.
After repeating this for an unknown number of times, finally, after a certain jump, the spaceship appeared in an unfamiliar star field, and in the distance in front of the ship, a dark brown planet appeared in front of it.
Womir has arrived!
The ship slowly descended towards the top of the planet.
There used to be intelligent life here, but for some unknown reason, all that remains is ruins. But as long as you look at the stars in the distance that have almost reached the end of their lives, you can probably judge the main reason for the destruction of life on this planet.
The current Wommel Star is completely unsuitable for long-term survival. The lack of sunlight makes the entire planet cold as winter all year round. Animal and plant life is almost extinct, deserts are everywhere, and from time to time there are violent winds and sandstorms.
But for these superheroes who are arriving today, it is not difficult to walk here for a short time.
Although several people have never been here, it is not difficult to find the soul gem. Because on the entire planet, there is a huge altar, which has been artificially carved out on top of a huge mountain, and even after thousands of years, it still stands.
The ship landed near the altar, and the group headed to the top of the hill in full gear.
None of them have been here, so who knows if there will be any danger here.
As soon as he stepped on the top of the mountain, he saw a dark shadow floating out of the shadows, shrouded in a cloak, and said in a gloomy voice: "Steve Rogers, we meet again. It's been a long time! ”
Everyone was shocked, and immediately pulled out their weapons and prepared for battle.
The black shadow did not touch the ground, like a ghost, and floated down in front of everyone. Through the dim daylight, everyone could clearly see that there was no skin on this man's head, like a skeleton, and his whole body was red, not at all human.
"Red Skull!"
Steve was shocked and subconsciously smashed it with a shield.
ps: Ask for a monthly pass at the end of the month, and if there is a monthly pass that is about to expire, just hit me on the head!
