Chapter 265: The Beginning of Pluralism: Conditions and Arrest
"Oh my God!"
Dr. Banner and Natasha couldn't help but murmur as they looked at the shocking [Star Map] that shone like a vast starry sky.
"Didn't you tell us you had so many Infinity Primordials here?" Strange was obviously also shocked by this scene, and he even saw some emerald green glow in it. That's the spilling light of the Time Stone!
And it's clear that the Time Stone is on him. But he could feel that the time gems on the [Star Map] also possessed the power of time.
This strikes Strange as a sense of absurdity. The existence of the Supreme Mage is to protect the Time Gem and protect the universe from being eroded by dark forces, but looking at the scene in front of him, he suddenly felt that the point of guarding the gem seems to be something that can be considered again?
"Is it much? Not much. They all have their own uses. What do you think is the reason for the constant updating and expansion of data dimensions? I used these things to form nodes, and analyzed their power and integrated them into the data dimension. Luke said softly. In his eyes, these condensed and extracted rough stones are just some parts of the server hardware in the data dimension.
"Since you have so many rough stones, can you lend us some?" Ant-Man Scott muttered.
"They're not as amazing as you think." Without hesitation, Luke poured cold water on their faces with a look of anticipation, "Strictly speaking, although they have the power of the original stone, they cannot be regarded as real rough stones. ”
"What do you mean?" Stark and Dr. Banner glanced at each other, a little confused about Luke's words.
"Meaning, it's just a cake-cutting technique." Luke didn't pretend to be profound, and said very bluntly: "The number has indeed increased, but the total amount has not changed." ”
"I still don't quite understand." Nick Fury looked at the [starry sky] full of walls, and there was still a look of shock in his eyes.
"A piece of cake, no matter how many portions it is cut into, will not increase in volume. I think what he meant was that the rough stones were like a cake being cut, and the number seemed to be too much, but there was less energy. Stark thoughtfully gave his own answer.
"You understand it thoroughly." Luke said: "In the past, when there was only one Infinite Primordial Stone, the energy it released was unique, but after the same number of Primordial Stones increased, it was like a water pipe. It seems that its energy is still infinite, but in fact, the amount of release has been continuously weakened. If you want your universe to return to normal, under normal circumstances, it will not work if you bring these rough stones back. Because the energy it releases cannot support the energy consumption that restores the universe to its original state. Of course, you can choose to try and see if you can restore your home system. ”
"Wait a minute, if these primordial stones are brought back by Tony from another world, shouldn't they be the only primordial stones in their universe? Will their power still be influenced by our side? Nick asked, a little puzzled, holding up his hand.
"Nobody knows." Luke shrugged: "There should be some kind of binding attribute between the original stone and its native universe, they are the embodiment of the rules of the current universe, strictly speaking, only in their own universe, these original stones can exert the strongest effect." If you leave the original universe, you may go to other universes and some phenomena such as mismatch or failure. ”
"When did you collect so many rough stones?" Strange's focus was still on the original star chart, and he keenly noticed that the revealed star map was inlaid with four different rough stones. And in his memory, Luke seemed to have only two Infinity Primordial Stones in his hand, even if he counted the Time Primordial Stones of the Supreme Mage's lineage, there was one more.
"That's the Strength Stone." Luke stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers, and a purple rough stone on the star map floated down from the star map, and came to Luke's outstretched palm under the gaze of everyone.
"Where did you get that?" Strange looked at the purple gem with a look of surprise and asked with a frown.
"Didn't I say that?" Luke asked rhetorically, with some surprise.
"Of course you didn't say that!" Strange replied with certainty, and looked at Nick Fury.
"Remember the invading Zetaris?" Luke asked, looking at them.
"Of course I remember, I read the report afterwards, you created a virus, caused chaos between them, and sealed the space gems, closed the wormhole, and took the opportunity to drive them out completely." Nick replied immediately.
"Yes, but something happened to some of the infected Zetarians, who betrayed their own people and betrayed Thanos. They knew that Thanos valued those rough stones, so they had been searching for similar rough stones in the universe all these years. The Strength Rough Stone is what they found. With a light hand, Luke returned the power rough stone floating in his palm back to the star map and explained.
"On our side, the Rough of Power was found by a man named Star-Lord from an abandoned planet called Morag." Dr. Banner spoke out the information he remembered.
"Again, the power gem here was also found by Star-Lord. It's just that he sold it. In the end, because of this gem, a battle broke out in the buyer's territory.
The Zetarians, the Cree, and the Marauders, as well as the Obsidian Five sent by Thanos. In the end, the Zetarians became the ultimate victors with the help of my power, so the Power Gem fell into their hands. Luke made no secret of it. Nick and the others looked at each other. Nick, in particular, was a little surprised that Luke quietly had an armed force of his own in the universe.
"In fact, there was a follow-up, and we fought hard with Ronan's army in the barren land. He grabbed the Strength Rough Stone, and he wanted to use the power of the Power Rough Stone to destroy the Nova Legion headquarters on Xandar Star. It was Star-Lord and us who stopped him! An unfamiliar voice suddenly interjected. The rocket stepped out of the bright light, followed by two Thor, one large and one small.
"Is this your Thor there? What's the deal with the meat on his stomach? Isn't he taboo? Young Tony looked at the cute vicissitudes of Santhor, couldn't help but step forward and pressed his stomach, and asked in surprise.
"Burgers and cola water, and a lot of alcohol, what to eat with high calories." Vicissitudes of Thor didn't mind Tony's hand pressing his stomach, and replied mildly.
"My future will never be like his." Seeing Tony and Nick's eyes turned to him, young Thor had a dark face and repeatedly emphasized: "Absolutely not!" ”
"Thor!" Dr. Banner: When they saw another partner appear in front of them, their hearts were both happy and frustrated. It seems that they are not the only ones who are in the wrong place, but everyone is in the wrong place. After all, they were shuttling together.
"Now it's all left of Planet Morrag and Warmill's Star-Lord and Clint." The otherworldly Natasha said helplessly. Their crossing was a failure, but it wasn't bad that they didn't get the gems, but they had something else to gain. At least Luke was willing to teach them the technique of recondensing the rough.
"If your other friends want to go to Morag, I'm afraid you'll be disappointed." Luke looked at Natasha and spoke.
"Because the Power Gem isn't there?" Natasha nodded knowingly.
"No, it's because there was a battle that broke out on Morag before, and it should have fallen into a state of disintegration." Luke corrected Natasha for their words.
"If they see Morag disintegrate and don't find the Strength Rough Stone on it, where will they go next?" When Natasha heard this, they looked at each other in amazement, and then led by the rocket, they all opened their mouths to say a place.
"Land of Nothingness!"
"That's even worse, it's been transformed by me with some hands and feet with data dimensions and power gems, and it has been used as a vehicle for an experiment. It's very chaotic there now, and many of the major organizations in the universe now have people stationed there for a long time. After they pass, the experience may not be very good. Luke looked at him and asked him for some information, Natasha and the others, who were very face-saving and told the information they had.
"By the way, Thanos' Dark Quadrant also has troops stationed there. Even he himself had been there, trying to fish out the Obsidian Five Generals from the Void. was only stopped by Ms. Marvel Carol Danvers and others. However, Thanos did not give up, he thought about what happened in the Land of Nothingness and where the Primordial Stone of Power went. ”
After a pause, Luke added a few more words as if remembering something.
"Carol Danvers?" Nick Fury didn't expect to hear the name again, it turned out to be from Luke's mouth. He wasn't even sure how much Luke knew about Danfoss and his relationship. After all, Luke's message is becoming more and more mysterious.
"Your old friend." Unsurprisingly, Luke uttered a message that made Nick smile wryly.
"How do you know?" Nick was curious about Luke's information channels.
"The energy of the primordial isotope in her body is almost overflowing. Space Gem! In a way, she was competing for energy with Little Becky, or rather, using Little Becky's regular energy. And the Space Gem has always been in the Nine Realms. I've looked up some information in the classified vault, and you worked with a female soldier named Carol Danvers when you were not the head of S.H.I.E.L.D. yet. Luke gave a relatively reluctant answer.
Nick knew that Luke's source of information was definitely more than just him, but he didn't bother with it. He just thought that the hole cards he had been holding in his hand seemed to be completely exposed.
"Can you give me a spaceship so we can bring them back? Or give me the tools to make a communicator that can communicate with them. Rocket Raccoon stepped forward, spread his little paws, and pleaded to Luke. Although he had just arrived, he had already realized that the owner of this place, or the person who could call the shots, was no one else but Luke.
"Please." Luke is indispensable, and he even thoughtfully opened the data dimension permission for Rocket Raccoon.
"When did we start learning the techniques of condensing and extracting rough stones?" Stark and Dr. Banner stepped forward and approached Luke's side and asked, their faces eager to wait too long.
"Anytime. But at what price are you going to get my technology? Luke replied sharply, but in an instant he asked the two in front of him his own question.
"Is there a price to pay?" Natasha and Scott, who had just gathered together, also heard Luke's words, and let out a sound of surprise in unison, they didn't seem to expect Luke to do this.
But Nick, Thor, and young Tony next to them showed an unsurprising look of relief. They really thought Luke had changed his temper.
"Or else? Are you planning to prostitute our technology for nothing? Luke replied in surprise. There is a problem in your universe, and you have come to our universe because of some accident to ask for our help, and we have responded and solved it. Isn't it natural that you pay the price? ”
"Don't look at me, I'll definitely listen to Luke." Seeing the gaze of Vicissitudes Thor looking at him, young Thor simply shook his head. Even if he doesn't have the aura of Santor in his brain now, it doesn't mean that he is stupid and can't tell the camp he is in.
Just as Nick Fury heard the news of his own death in the other universe without any psychological fluctuations, out of position and friendship, he would also side with the familiar Luke. What's more, he felt that Luke's request was quite reasonable.
"What do you want? I can give you all the technology and everything Stark. Stark was silent for a moment, then looked up.
"I can do something for you, too." Vicissitudes Santhor also raised his hand. Dr. Banner: They all nodded in unison.
"You don't need to be so serious, you can learn the technology first, and then decide on it after you restore your universe. We don't want anything from you, we just want to make some connection between the two universes. For example, to set up a place of contact in your universe without affecting you? In front of Stark, who seemed to be a great enemy, as if he was determined to give up everything, Luke smiled, looked at their faces, and vaguely said his request.
……
A cosmic region near the Voidlands.
A mothership in the Dark Quadrant stands in the way of a Marauder-based spaceship. The towing beam on the mothership slowly sucks the spaceship into the interior of the mothership.
"Damn, what's that?" Rhodes and Clint in the ship, as well as Star-Lord, spoke out.
"That's Thanos' ship!" Nebula, who looked in an extremely bad state, gritted his teeth with a look of horror on his face.
