American comics: Starting with Luke the Maker

“Didn't Thor already kill him?” Natasha thought of a terrifying possibility.

“It's Thanos from Luke's universe!” Dr. Banner said, the terrible guess in Natasha's heart causing him internal spasms.

“Rhodes and Star-Lord haven't returned. Damn it! I knew it!” Rocket Raccoon took the weapon from his back into his hands. He hadn't been idle during this time; he had taken out a loan to use Luke's lab to upgrade his weapon.

The hearts of everyone sank again. Seeing Thanos appear before them, Star-Lord and the others who went to find the Soul Stone and Power Stone must have fallen into Thanos's hands.

“You should have obtained the Infinity Stones, right? Give them to me!” Thanos thrust his Tyrant Glaive into the ground and stretched out his hand towards Stark and the others.

“You think that's possible?” The nanites on Stark's chest covered his entire body like liquid metal in an instant. Ancient Thor's body glowed with wisps of blazing electricity, the blade of Stormbreaker pointing towards Thanos's location.

“Not even for your companions?” Thanos threw out the fleet he had brought, shrunk by Pym particles, and projected the captured figures of Star-Lord and the others in front of everyone.

“One stone for one life,” Thanos said, a slight smile appearing on the corner of his mouth as he watched Dr. Banner and the others struggle with their expressions, and proposed his deal.

“This doesn't seem like the Thanos I know,” Dr. Banner shrugged with a wry smile. “Too despicable, this kind of method.”

“Then perhaps you don't know me well enough. I don't know what kind of behavior the me in this universe has, but I have always been willing to use some disgraceful means as long as I can achieve my goals. I'll say it again, I just want the stones; they are from our universe.” Thanos said softly, “Hand them over, and your companions will be freed, and your world will not experience war. Before you choose to resist, I suggest you think carefully about the consequences.”

“I want to see them first. Just a projection is not enough for us to make a decision.” Stark's heavy voice came from the speakers as he looked at Rhodes and the others being projected.

At this time, the sky was already dark, and the ceiling of the room was burst open by the fleet that Thanos threw out and restored to its original size, hovering in the air, blocking out the sky.

Thanos looked at Stark, who was speaking, turned around and snapped his fingers. Before long, a tractor beam fell from the sky, revealing the figures of Rhodes and the other four bound and controlled.

Escorting them were fully armed Chitauri soldiers and Outriders, products of genetic modification.

“Untie them.” Thanos waved his hand, signaling the soldiers to untie the restraints on Rhodes and the others, and motioned for them to retreat. “I will return them to you, and you will give me the stones.”

“We might have a better way.” Stark saw that Thanos had generously returned Rhodes and the others, and after scanning and finding that the four's vital signs were normal, he raised his head and said to Thanos.

“That is to kill you again.”

Stark's words were like pressing the button to start the war. Thor, who had been impatient for a long time, with dazzling electric light all over his body, waved Stormbreaker and jumped high,劈ing down towards Thanos.

“It seems negotiations have failed. But it doesn't matter, I'll play with you for a while.” Thanos reached out and grabbed the Tyrant Glaive at his side, using it to block Thor's battle axe. The dazzling electric light reflected on his face, making it look somewhat light and dark. He seemed not surprised by Stark's behavior and said in a deep voice.

Gunfire, thunder, particle beams—a large number of attacks fell on Thanos like rain in an instant. However, apart from Thor's attacks, which he could block once or twice, the other attacks from Stark were directly ignored by him.

The shells and energy beams that landed on Thanos didn't even damage the armor he was wearing. Thanos wielded the Tyrant Glaive with great force, and in just a few rounds, he sent Thor, who had rushed up, flying out.

Thor was overwhelmed by Thanos's storm-like attacks, and almost instantly, he turned from an attacker into a defender who was struggling to resist. A heavy shadow could not help but cover his heart. This powerful sense of oppression that made him unable to breathe was even heavier than the Thanos he had faced before.

“Be careful, he is more powerful than the Thanos we faced before!” Thor shouted loudly to Stark and the others as he jumped out of the ruined building.

“It is you who are too weak.” Thanos punched Captain's shield, and this shield, which was always effective in Captain's hands, could not perfectly absorb the damage attached to his fist.

Captain's bones almost cracked with a cracking sound, and the whole person was knocked away.

Thump thump thump!

Dr. Banner, in Hulk form, rushed up and slammed his clenched fist heavily into Thanos's face, punch after punch. However, the next moment, the fist that Hulk swung out was grabbed in Thanos's palm. As Thanos's palm exerted force, a look of pain appeared on Dr. Banner's face.

“The strength can be stronger, this little strength is not enough to defeat me.” Thanos dropped the Tyrant Glaive in his hand and punched Dr. Banner in the head. Dr. Banner staggered from the blow. Thanos stepped forward and knocked Dr. Banner's Hulk form to the ground with a few clean punches, staggering and unable to get up.

As Thanos turned around to pick up the Tyrant Glaive, four shackle-like metal objects, with tail flames spraying from their backs, took the opportunity to lock onto Thanos's wrists and ankles under Stark's control. The powerful magnetic force caused the shackles to attract each other, locking together. Thanos's limbs were therefore attached together, and his tall body hunched down. However, before the look of surprise in everyone's eyes could rise, Thanos used brute force to break those shackles apart.

Tearing the shackles from his limbs, then kneading them into a ball of metal in his palm, he threw them at Stark's feet in an insulting manner. While picking up the Tyrant Glaive that had fallen on the ground again, he said calmly, “Don't take out such children's toys to play with. These can't hurt me. Except for that Asgardian prince, you can't even make me break my defense.

I give you the opportunity to struggle and resist, and I will try my best to keep your lives. Before your home planet is destroyed, you have enough time to choose to continue or end this war. I just want the stones!”

As Thanos's voice fell, the Dark Quadrant motherships in the sky, as if receiving orders, began to advance towards various parts of the world. At the same time, the hidden gun ports opened one after another, and a large number of Chitauri and Outriders fell like rain from the various ships. If there were satellites monitoring this area, it would be even better to see the huge number of Dark Legion soldiers, like a black tide, spreading from all directions to the surrounding cities and regions.

Stark's intelligent system almost instantly presented the images monitored by the sky satellite in front of his eyes.

Dense rain of light poured from the gun ports of alien ships towards the ground. Fire and mushroom clouds rising into the sky, like a whirlwind of air masses, spread rapidly in a ring shape to the surrounding areas, wreaking havoc.

This scene instantly ignited the anger in Stark's chest. Almost instantly, he unlocked all his weapons and equipment. The Stark satellites in the sky projected weapon assembly boxes one after another towards the area where he was. All kinds of weapons, under Stark's control, instantly covered the area where Thanos was located.

Beams of light, light bullets, and high-explosive bombs blasted away several layers of the ground in the area where Thanos was located. The fierce firepower raged for more than ten minutes. After the outbreak, the heavy dust raised almost obscured the area within a hundred meters. The shock wave caused by the explosion directly collapsed all the surrounding buildings.

Dr. Banner, like a thick wall, sheltered Natasha and the others and retreated to a relatively safe area.

“Is it resolved?” Looking at the heavy dust, Natasha frowned and asked while performing battlefield first aid on Captain, setting his bones.

Stark, who was floating in front of them, did not answer her words, but vigilantly looked at the depths of the dust.

The blazing thunder flashed again in the dust, and then Thor was seen flying out again with electric light all over his body, his back like a stone skipping on the water, flying continuously twice on the ground, and finally rolling to the front of Stark and the others, limbs spread out, facing the sky, plastered on the ground in the shape of a large character.

Heavy footsteps strode out of the dust. Thanos's tall figure appeared on the edge of the dust. Stark's fierce firepower attack, which lasted for more than ten minutes, only made him look a little embarrassed.

“Is that all?” Thanos looked at his unscathed body, then aimed his gaze at Stark and the others standing opposite him, and Thor, who was propping himself up on the ground, shaking and standing up, raised the Tyrant Glaive and pointed it at Stark and the others, slightly raised his eyebrows, and issued a contemptuous question.

“Damn it, are the people in Luke's universe all perverts? Each one is so strong that they are simply monsters! He was already a monster, but Thanos from Luke's universe feels even more terrifying than the one on our side.” Rocket Raccoon complained unwillingly, holding his weapon.

“I heard my mother explain some things. The other party's life has obviously been upgraded. Mortal attacks may be useless to him.” Thor clenched the Stormbreaker in his hand. It seemed that only in this way could he draw strength from this weapon.

“Then what should we do?” Natasha and Rhodes frowned. This meant that their numerical advantage was meaningless to Thanos. Their attacks were painless to him, perhaps not even as good as an ant bite.

Thinking of this, even the strong-willed people could not help but feel a sense of powerless despair. They once again felt this despair in the same enemy, and even this time, the sense of despair was even deeper than they had ever felt in Thanos.

At least they could fight the last Thanos back and forth, even if they were suppressed. But the one in front of them, although he did not master an Infinity Stone, and never used the power of any Infinity Stone, but the purest violence and power he showed made their will to resist collapse rapidly.

“Higher quality energy and attacks are needed to pose a threat to him. It seems that only I can do this here.” Thor tightened the Stormbreaker in his hand. He now no longer regarded Dr. Banner, who was in Hulk form, as a reliance.

“Higher quality energy attack?”

Seeing Thor roaring and rushing up, entangled and fighting desperately with Thanos, while everyone was silent, Stark muttered silently in his heart. He remembered the bottle of liquid with incredible power that he and Dr. Banner had obtained from the data dimension. And the memory instilled in his mind just happened to have the knowledge to maximize their use.

“Friday, build a new Ark Reactor.” Stark ordered his intelligent system. Originally, he could have researched how to use this precious energy liquid in a better environment and at a better time, but the current situation forced him to make a choice.

Thor was frantically attacking Thanos, but Thanos's attacks made him somewhat difficult to parry. After Thanos skillfully blocked an axe he had chopped down with the Tyrant Glaive, Thanos's war boots had already kicked heavily on his chest.

Thor's body, like a cannonball out of its chamber, flew backwards and collapsed several buildings in a straight line. He felt that his heart had been kicked so hard by this kick that it almost stopped beating. If his body had not been constantly surrounded by the powerful thunder force stimulating the muscles and organs on his body, this kick might have made him faint.

But now his situation was not good either. He felt that the muscles on his body were like a mortal being trampled and rammed by a group of elephants. It was a miracle that he was not dead. His muscles were aching from the violent collision with Thanos, and even the muscle fibers were about to break. Blood flowed from his nostrils, ears, and the corners of his mouth. Asgard's powerful physical self-healing power was temporarily unable to recover under frequent heavy blows.

But he knew that only he could stand up now, and only he could fight Thanos. Once he fell, then these people, including this planet, this universe, would really have no power to resist.

However, just as Thor gritted his teeth and used Stormbreaker as a support to stand up from the ruins, a strange feeling and energy suddenly enveloped the entire battlefield.

Thanos, who wanted to solve Thor, also felt this energy. He turned around in surprise, looking at Stark who was overflowing with that strange energy, his eyes deep.

Stark, who used nanotechnology to manufacture a matching new Ark Reactor against the clock, felt somewhat surprised at everything that was happening to him at this moment. He felt that some kind of power was constantly pouring into his body, he felt that his brain had incredible computing power, and the machinery in his perception seemed to have life and came alive.
