infinite hero

The first stage rocket fell off, the second stage rocket fell off, the third stage rocket fell off...

The spacecraft successfully got rid of the gravity of the earth and entered the predetermined orbit...

The barren surface of the moon and the large and small impact craters approached them and retreated...

The sun looks more like a huge burning fireball than ever, and the corona's tongue of flame is more dazzling...

Then, the sunlight got farther and farther away, until they were completely left behind.The beautiful blue planet also gradually disappeared from sight.

"We're just... leaving the solar system."

When Tony said this, he was observing the situation outside through the round porthole.He had to admit that what he saw now fit his imagination, like any picture that a space probe could send back.But when he saw it with his own eyes, he couldn't help feeling desolate and lonely.

Because humans have explored the solar system and the nearby stars and asteroid belts, and drawn a relatively detailed star map, the spacecraft can automatically drive according to the predetermined program without any accidents.At the same time, after they officially entered the orbital flight, the self-made gravity device and the air generator also started to work in order to create a more suitable environment for human life.

Sid stood beside Tony, wondering if he should comfort him by saying "We'll be back again."From an emotional point of view, he should do this; but from an intellectual point of view, he really doesn't know what will happen in this trip.

In addition, if you keep silent all the time, it may affect the mood of the two of them.Given that they are likely to be on a lengthy trip, the aforementioned possibility is best avoided.

"Yeah." That's all he could say at last, and nodded.

Tony saw Sid's movements in the reflection of the porthole glass. "Before we set off, you thought our chances of success were almost non-existent; but now, you seem to be quite adapted?" It seems that there is no negative emotion at all!

Sid nodded, then shook his head. "Because I know very well that this trip is imperative," he said, putting a hand on Tony's shoulder, "just like you said, make it look like we can come back anytime; and Now, we are just getting started. If you don’t adapt now, what will you do in the future?”

Tony pouted. "I knew I shouldn't argue with you, because you'll use my own words to convince me when the time comes!"

"Otherwise?" Sid tilted his head slightly, and his lips twisted in a helpless arc following this movement, "Aside from yourself, who else can convince you faster?"

Tony returned a stare. "At this time, I miss the past very much," he muttered, "Even if you knew, you wouldn't say anything, and you are much cuter than now." Sid really knows him so well, sometimes better than himself learn!

"Are you angry from embarrassment?" Sid asked amusedly, and added: "Actually, it's still too late. You know, you can still go back..."

"Come on, shut up!" Tony interrupted Sid's idea involuntarily. "Do you still remember what I told you before I set off?" His tone of speech became flat and became more serious at the same time: "Don't, think, one, one, person, do it!"

"I was just kidding." Sid smiled and winked at him.

"It's not allowed anymore!" Tony said immediately. "This joke is not funny at all!"

"If you say that..." Sid replied deliberately dragging his tongue until Tony gave him a supercilious look, "Yes?"

Tony is still not satisfied. "What does the interrogative tone mean?" He was nitpicking.

Sid decisively changed the way to stop that endless trouble-making mouth.The two of them were close to each other, their chests squeezed each other, and after a while, the surrounding air was steamed and heated.

"Anyway, there is still an advantage to space." After a deep kiss and parting, Sid said so. "At least no one wants to visit you halfway, eh?"

"I knew you were pretending!" Tony suddenly became angry.He just said, how could he be the only one annoyed when he was interrupted in the middle?Sid's calm reaction at that time was indeed deceiving!

Sid half-closed his eyes at Tony.Under normal circumstances, he rarely showed this lustful look; he was always restrained, and he only wanted Tony to see it. "So, what now?" He deliberately lowered his voice, rubbing his fingers behind Tony's waist through a thin layer of T-shirt fabric, "The laboratory, or me?"

For the spaceship, they had been working day and night in the laboratory before, and they had no time to relieve their physical needs.It's fine if you don't have a chance, but if you have a chance, time, and won't be disturbed by others, then what are you waiting for?

"Is the transponder off?" Tony asked, but his hand was already reaching for Sid's shirt button dishonestly.

"Of course. I made an appointment to contact you in two hours, have you forgotten?" Sid not to be outdone, quickly untied Tony's belt.

"Autopilot is okay?" Tony hummed, trying not to let himself be too easily captured by pleasure.But even if he really has weak legs, there is nothing to be ashamed of. How can an authentic earthling like him compare with aliens, right?

"We still have at least two more days before we can leave the known star field." Sid's answer was accurate, but there were already some dark gasps in his voice.Then he suddenly realized something: "Wait, are you taking revenge on me?" Asking him some seriously serious questions at a time like this so that he can't pretend?

"I only found out now, it's too late." Tony had already won the war against Sid's buttons, and while admitting that he was doing bad things, he bit Sid's chest——

Sid gasped.It wasn't pain, but an extremely familiar trembling feeling. "You're in good spirits now, aren't you?" Just as enthusiastic as ever... no, more enthusiastic!

"I thought there was no need to waste saliva on asking such questions." Tony was busy, and he squeezed out these words from his throat, with some sticky water sounds.To prove this point, he even stretched forward so that the lower bodies of the two squeezed together.

"...I understand." Sid replied, decisively picked up the troublemaker, and strode towards the living room.Since the future is in doubt, enjoy a total carnival until then!

Meanwhile, Uranus.

"This spaceship seems to be different from the previous ones?" The Cree who was on duty today felt that this was very strange. "The outer layer alone is different, it seems to be much harder."

"Who is in there?" The team leader in charge of supervision just walked to the screen of the Almighty Wave Launcher and asked after hearing the words.

The Cree was just talking casually at first, but he was in a hurry when he was asked this question.But fortunately, he was lucky, and suddenly found the report of the mechanical soldiers they secretly inserted on the earth. "Iron Man," he pronounced the codename, "Tony Stark."

"He's alone?" The captain twitched his eyebrows, or the muscles where the eyebrows were supposed to be. No real Cree has eyebrows.

"No," the rotating Kree turned a page of the report, "It says there is Iron Man's brother, Sid Stark."

"Two people?" After getting a definite answer, the team leader felt even more strange.

He thinks that the space travel of the last group of five (that is, the later Fantastic Four and Doctor Doom) was enough, and it is even more miraculous that they all saved a life in the end.Now, two people, seriously?

"Are we going to do something?" Seeing his boss's uncertain face, the Cree who reported felt that he was talking too much.If he shut up in the first place, wouldn't there be nothing?

The squad leader wanted to shake his head; in fact, he had already shaken his head halfway, and then he remembered something else from the armor photo reported. "Are these two people the same as the two who came back from Walter Alheim last time? Shouldn't all people on Earth have a set of armor that can fly?"

The observing Cree immediately remembered the same thing.

Due to the sudden occurrence of the battle in Walter Alheim, they were not able to monitor the whole process.The truth is, it took some time after this happened before they found the passage into Walter Alheim and checked the rest of the battlefield.

If you don't check, you don't know, and when you check, you will be shocked!The remaining energy there, excluding the Asgardians and dark elves, also has the earth's deuterium bomb technology!

Two earthlings in armor get entangled in a battle for the ether?seriously?

In the eyes of the Cree, the earth is synonymous with technological backwardness.But the people on Earth are probably lucky—in their short history of thousands of years of development, they have received visits from extraterrestrial advanced intelligence four times.The degree of development of these advanced intelligences is not even understood by the Cree people, so they can only be referred to as advanced intelligences; if they did not find the traces of transformation in the genes of the people on Earth, they would never know that those advanced intelligences have ever come !

Their original intention of establishing a strategic base on Uranus was to monitor this change.For better or worse, they desperately need to know more about higher intelligent life.

This kind of research is not aimed at the earthlings themselves, so the Cree habitually ignore the changes that the earthlings can bring.At the same time, of course, they will not deliberately remember the name and appearance of a person on Earth, even if they suddenly received a call from a person wearing a skull mask last time.

However, after knowing that there are people on earth involved in the ether war, the Cree finally raised the level of monitoring, trying to find out who on earth might do this.This is not too difficult to do, because there are only a few people on the earth who can make high-end weapons; adding armor conditions, there is only one left.

The goal of the Cree in this matter can only be the ether.But they don't have Malekith's sensing ability, so they don't know where the ether is-is it preserved in Asgard, or is there a very small possibility that it will be taken away by the earthlings?

It has to be said that for the Cree who pursue scientific accuracy in everything, even if there is only a [-]% possibility, they must verify it to the end.

"I let you lock the target last time!" The team leader recalled and realized that his subordinates almost made a fatal oversight. "Make it up immediately! Increase the monitoring level of that spaceship!" His voice was close to a roar——

If the ether is not in the hands of those two earthlings, how dare they just leave the earth and fly into outer space?Moreover, even if the ether is really not in the hands of the people on earth, then they must know the relevant facts about the ether!

"Save its movement data, all of which need to be reported directly to the accuser Ronan!" The team leader finally gave an irrefutable order.

The Cree soldiers who were being trained were terrified. "yes!"

Andromeda galaxy, Xandar star.

This is a highly technologically advanced planet, more than 200 million light-years away from the earth.Looking around, everything on it is different from the earth, and there is an ultra-modern style everywhere——

The most obvious point is that the police patrol vehicles on the Xandar planet should be called patrol aircraft, patrolling according to the well-defined space routes; in addition, the patrol officers do not need shackles or handcuffs. The frozen space freezes the suspects and sends those troublemakers to prison in minutes.

That's right, Xandar is the home planet of the Xandars, the mortal enemies of the Kree, and also the station of the cosmic super-legion, the Nova Legion.

The Nova Legion is divided into four ranks, from the lowest guards to the most senior centurions, and the stars in front of the hats represent their ranks.Their energy source is called Nova Power, which is a nearly unlimited field of power, generated by a super life computer world consciousness.However, the object of their allegiance is not like the Cree (the Cree were previously loyal to the supercomputer supreme intelligence they created), but their queen Adora.

Although there are not many members, and most of them are Xandarians, the protection scope of the Nova Legion is by no means limited to the Xandar galaxy.For now, they are responsible for maintaining peace throughout the Andromeda galaxy.

Because of this, Asgard generally does not intervene in the affairs of this area.In Odin's view, if humans can do well by themselves, there is no need for God's Domain to intervene.

Frigg agrees with Odin on this matter.In fact, she finally gave Sid and Tony an alternative plan: if they really can't find the goddess of death, that's okay, divert from Xandar to Norwell, and see if there are any collectors who have settled there A way to get the ether out.

But at this time, only Frigga, Sid and Tony knew about it.Neither Xandar nor Norwell knew that the ether was about to fly towards them.

In fact, under the calm and peaceful surface of Xandar, the Nova Legion has already entered a state of ready to fight.They're a peacekeeping force, and things aren't normally this tense; but at the moment, their relationship with the Kree is almost simmering, especially now that the Supreme Intelligence has died and Ronan the Accuser has taken power.Because Ronan is an extreme nationalist, and he has already said that he will definitely destroy the entire Xandar planet!

Given that Ronan does have the ability to cause devastating damage, under the Queen's order, the entire Nova Legion is on standby.

"Sir, this is the latest troop movement on Hela." A member of the Nova Corps (third rank) walked into their superior's office and brought a map.

The star Hela is located in the Large Magellanic Cloud galaxy, about [-] light-years away from the earth, and is the home star of the Cree.

And Richard Reed is the officer that the members of the corps say, the centurion who commands the entire corps.He looked at the blue 3D star map and the sparse thin lines (representing the movement of the Cree army) popping up on the long strategy table, and couldn't help wondering: "What exactly is Ronan looking for recently?"

This is not the first time he has asked this question, but they still haven't received any definite news.

"We don't know, sir." The members of the corps replied respectfully, "We don't think the channels Ronan used were above board. And if he went through the black market to find what he wanted, it would be a great deal for our investigation." Difficulties."

The conclusion was obvious, and Richard himself knew it.

Combined with the news they had received before, someone posted a high-priced request in the black market of the universe, wanting a thing called a "cosmic sphere".Adventurers and speculators are all tempted by this huge profit, and several groups of interstellar bandits are ready to take risks for it.

It has to be said that these desperadoes are very courageous.Because before long, Ronan also intervened in the matter, claiming that he was bound to have the sphere.Under normal circumstances, Ronan is recognized as the most dangerous desperado, almost no one dares to offend him.

"No matter what Ronan is looking for, we can't let him succeed." Richard ordered in a deep voice, "Continue to monitor Hella, we need to be ready before Ronan moves!"

"Yes, sir." The members of the regiment answered loudly, and then went down.

Richard was left alone to circle the long table, his gaze passing over the lines of troops that did not move from time to time.Use your brain, he said to himself, think, what could a sphere even Ronan want, what could it be used for?

**

Large Magellanic Cloud, Hela.

Although the technological level of the Cree is almost equal to that of the Xandar, the planet does not look as simple and bright as Xandar.

Probably due to rivalry factors, the Xandars prefer light colors, thin metal, and floor-to-ceiling windows in their architecture, while the Kree prefer dark colors, thick stone walls, and... no windows.

In this way, the whole planet is naturally dark.

Of course, a true Kree would not care about this.In fact, just like they think that the darker the skin, the more authentic the blood, this dark style is recognized as the most in line with the excellent traditions of the Cree.

As a well-known nationalist, Ronan took this style to the extreme after he came to power.In the eyes of outsiders, he is iron-blooded and ruthless; but in the eyes of the militaristic Cree people, this is the quality that a qualified leader should possess.

But at this time, the dictator was in a bad mood.To be exact, he has not been in a good mood recently.

In the last battle with the Xandars, the entire Cree Empire suffered heavy losses.The Supreme Intelligence died, and he was mortally wounded.It is conceivable that under such circumstances, his desire to avenge the Xandars is so strong!

But the problem is that he can't do whatever he wants.The Nova Legion remained almost intact, while the Cree were left with nothing but defeated soldiers.That also means that if he wants to achieve his goals in his lifetime, he must turn to outside forces.

At this time, it was Thanos who extended a helping hand to Ronan.

As a Saturn native Titan, Thanos obviously has a tall, strong figure and powerful strength in line with his own blood, which is the basis for his dealings with Ronan.Another basis is that Ronan is not a good guy, let alone him—he is cruel by nature, fond of killing, and even his mother died under his hands, so he was exiled by the entire Titan race.

But of course, they didn't actually have the strength to banish Thanos.The reason why Thanos followed their wishes and left Saturn to go to prison on a small, desolate and remote planet was entirely because he no longer looked down on Saturn——

What's the point of conquering an asteroid?No sense of accomplishment!Speaking of which, conquering the universe still sounds better, right?

At this time, a digression must be inserted.There have been several rounds of large-scale interstellar wars in the universe before, and the earth has successfully avoided them.On the one hand, it’s because people on Earth don’t know what’s going on outside, and on the other hand, it’s because of thoughts similar to Thanos——

What is there to compete with a backward asteroid?It's no good to win, and it's a waste of gas money!

But of course, gasoline is just a colloquial term.In fact, no planet other than Earth uses energy so inefficiently.

Then again, we can now know that Thanos will never help Ronan unconditionally.In exchange for helping Ronan destroy Xandar, what he asked Ronan to do was to find the cosmic sphere and give it to him.

However, just as the Xandars did not know where the Cosmic Sphere was, neither did Ronan.Also, he didn't know what the sphere was for.The only question he cares about now is why he has sent so many people and spent so much time, but still no one brought him back that key thing!

He wants revenge!He can't wait!If this time dragged on for another day, his body and even his mind would be like being fried in a frying pan for another day!He can't wait to see the Xandar all, go, die!

When Ronan was in a bad mood, there were only a handful of people who dared to approach him, and Thanos' adopted daughter Xingyun was one of them.

Her skin was also dark blue, and she had no eyebrows or hair.Moreover, her body has been greatly remodeled, so her whole body has some mechanical features. For example, the skull structure looks the same as it can be opened.

"The Highest Accuser." She quietly walked into the hall and stood behind Ronan.

Regarding the fact that Thanos sent two adopted daughters to help him find the cosmic sphere, Ronan felt that it was surveillance.Anyway, he and Thanos can't be called allies, at most they can only be regarded as a relationship of mutual use, so he is quite indifferent to Xingyun.Just like now, he didn't look back. "Only you?"

"Camora didn't know where she went, I couldn't find her." Xing Yun replied coldly.

She has no feelings for Camorra, the nominal sister—maybe she had it at first, but it disappeared after a certain training—that time, she was knocked down by Camorra and hung on a cliff, who He reached out to her, as if trying to pull her up; but when she believed it was true, Camorra kicked her completely off the cliff.That's why she had to undergo body modification, otherwise she would have died at the time.

So, why waste each other's time pretending that the relationship is still good?

Nebula knows it, Camorra knows it, Thanos knows it, and Ronan knows it now.

So Ronan finally glanced sideways at Xingyun.His pupils are also dark blue, but because they are too dark, they look closer to a deep ink color. "What's your business?"

Nebula opened his hands to Ronan.I saw that the hand automatically disassembled and put it together, and finally turned into a small stereo projector, in which a lonely dwarf star was floating and rotating. "We have a clue to the cosmic sphere."
