The group was led by Fra to the inner city of the Bloodnest.

Originally a large area of factories and infrastructure, Osborne had previously locked up its citizens for labor and industrial output, and their lives were boring and boring, and everyone who lived here was running like robots.

But now it's different, Barton has expanded the eastern half of the Bloodnest, renovated the residential areas and simple cities for the citizens, and now the industrial area is mostly staffed by blood dependents, and these powerful and resilient guys can do the work of five people alone.

Most of the people who had previously joined the renovation program had moved out of the chemical plant to take care of the delicate parts that had been set up since Patton took over the industrial park.

Arriving at the conference room, Hawkeye was the first to stand up to greet everyone, and behind him, Kate Bishop and the Punisher were also there, as well as an old man sitting in the corner silent.

"It's been a long time since I've seen Mr. Barton." Pietro walked up enthusiastically and greeted Old Patton, but seeing that the other party's eyes had been looking for something, Pietro hurriedly opened his mouth and continued.

"You should be looking for Ashley, Zhang Yu said that she has other tasks, and we are the only ones who will come back this time."

"That's right," Old Barton didn't say anything when he heard this, but there was a little loss in his eyebrows.

Seeing this, Pietro hurriedly opened his mouth to change the subject. "Let me introduce to you, this is John Constantine, a master of magic from another universe, his ability is very strong, even Zhang Yu is full of praise."

Konstantin casually dropped the cigarette butt into the ashtray on the table, and nodded silently. "Hello guys, I'm an occultist, not as outrageous as everyone thinks, I'm just a little trick."

"These two are from the Bat family, so you can just call them Barbara and Kate."

"I've heard Black Canary talk about you, my name is Kate Bishop, hello." Bishop walked up and pulled the two girls to her side, she had a great value for this young female warrior.

Barbara and Kate did not refuse Bishop's kindness, it can be seen that they should have talked to Black Canary about some experiences in the wasteland before, and naturally knew that this old woman was the mayor of Bishop Shelter who had taken care of Black Canary for a long time.

"This kid is Billy, and he has another identity called Shazam." Pietro came to Billy's side again and introduced with a smile.

"I'm seventeen, buddy." Billy pouted, disliking that people were treating him like a child.

In fact, as soon as Billy entered the door, everyone saw him, no way, a hideous wound on his face, not only blind in one eye but also broken a leg, this terrible injury fell on a child, anyone who saw it was extremely complicated.

"In the end, this guy who doesn't look easy to mess with is Itregan, don't look at him as vicious, but in fact he is a very secure guy, and he is also very combative."

After the introduction, Pietro didn't stop and immediately talked to Barton about the plight of the wasteland.

"Zhang Yu introduced the situation here before we came, it seems that there is an organization of the Church of Universal Truth eyeing the earth, but we don't know the specifics, can I trouble you to talk about it."

Seeing Pietro coming so straight, Hawkeye did not hesitate, he arranged for someone to bring a few stools for everyone to sit down, and then slowly spoke.

"Actually, we don't know much about this matter, after all, you have more or less also learned about the affairs of our world, forty-five years ago, the earth has basically lost contact with other civilizations in the universe, and now we don't know what the universe has become."

Old Barton sighed, then turned his head to look at the old man who was still talking to himself in the corner.

"This is Star-Lord, the captain of the Guardians of the Galaxy, and it stands to reason that he should be the hero who guards the galaxy, but Zhang Yu and I have talked about him, and the sacrifice of his teammates and family seems to have hit him too hard."

Everyone listened to Barton's narration, and then realized that the old man was not talking to himself, but as if he was communicating with someone else, and the whole thing was schizophrenic.

"Quiel, Quiel." Barton walked over to Star-Lord's side and whispered. "Can you tell our new friends about the enemy?"

"Hmmm! What? Of course. ”

Quill was stunned for a moment, and then came back to his senses, only to realize that there was suddenly such a large group of people in the conference room, and a tall demon with a thief conspicuous.

"Uh, hello." Quill staggered to his feet, his tone a little dry.

Rocket Raccoon laughed. "Don't say hello to Quill, you should tell these people about the seriousness of the matter now!"

"And you should shut up!" Star-Lord suddenly turned his head and shouted angrily at Rocket Raccoon. "You don't even really exist, you're just a product of my imagination, please don't bother me, thank you!"

In the eyes of the others present, Star-Lord was swearing at the empty ground.

Several people glanced at each other, but they didn't bother Star-Lord, in their eyes, this old man was already very pitiful.

Hawkeye also leaned over to Pietro's side and whispered. "Originally, Quill didn't know about it, and I thought he was crazy at first, until Zhang told me, and I realized that he was communicating with his dead teammates, although he imagined it."

"I'm afraid that's not the case." At this time, Konstantin suddenly spoke.

His voice instantly caught everyone's attention, including Star-Lord Quill.

However, Konstantin didn't care about the eyes of the others, he just walked out of the crowd, looking at the soul information that was constantly suspended around Star-Lord, and said quietly.

"Have you ever heard of necromantic possession?"

"Huh?" Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, but they don't understand what Konstantin means by this.

Konstantin didn't sell it, he looked Quill in the eyes gloomily, and spoke. "In my world, when some people die, if they have great faith in their hearts, then a part of their soul will be deposited in objects."

"Deposited on objects" Star-Lord looked at Konstantin, his mind a little messy.

"You're not crazy, Prince of the Stars, at least in my opinion you're not crazy."

"It's Star-Lord!" Quill and all the Guardians of the Galaxy behind him spoke.

"Okay, okay, Star-Lord." Konstantin spread his hands, and then his face became serious, and he said with a straight face. "I don't know what happened to your teammates, but part of them is in you, that's their will."

"What do you mean" Quill slowly turned, his heart beating a little faster as he looked at Camorra, Mantis Girl, Rocket Raccoon, and Drax looming beside him.

In response to him, the smiles of his old teammates were too many meanings, and for a while, Star-Lord's heart was mixed.

"I said, Quill, you're our last hope," Rocket Raccoon muttered on crutches.

But this sentence made Star-Lord feel endless pressure, and he collapsed directly to the ground, kneeling in front of his comrades, and sighed with a decadent face.

"How can you be sure. How can you be sure that I am hopeful. I don't deserve the title of Guardians of the Galaxy at all because of my mistake. I lost everyone including . Including you."

Star-Lord clutched his head in grief, and images of his own children's tragic deaths kept flashing in his mind.

Suddenly, Star-Lord felt a hand slowly resting on his head.

"You deserve it."

Like a ray of light in the darkness, Star-Lord slowly raised his head.

In front of him, Camorra smiled and stretched out her palm towards him, as if to pull him out of his past pain.

Not only Camorra, Mantis Girl, Rocket Raccoon, and Drax and others also reached out and smiled encouragingly at Star-Lord.

"You're a warrior, Quill, and right now, the battle isn't over."

Drax nodded heavily, and beside him, the mantis woman spoke.

"If anyone else can save the universe again, it's you, the Guardians of the Galaxy."

"yes, Quill."

Rocket Raccoon walked over slowly, two paws cupping Star-Lord's old face.

"Don't forget, you're going to avenge us by knocking out those dogs!"
