Opened a martial arts school, and his eldest disciple Batman

Chapter 191 Avengers

Thanos quickly learned the rules of Landlord.

So, deep in the universe beyond the Milky Way, on a carpet that was flying at a speed far exceeding that of most spaceships, Thanos sat cross-legged, holding a poker card as big as his fingernail in his hand, calling the Landlord.

At this time, Thanos was wearing clothes that Du Mu had cast a spell on him. They were similar to his original clothes, but without any metal parts.

After all, it was really an eye-catching sight to see such a big guy sitting there in such a swagger after successfully healing himself with the true qi given by Du Mu.

The poker game between the three was very boring. Except for Du Mu who was calm and composed, the other two were full of confusion and puzzlement.

Sebastian didn't understand how he ended up in this situation. What was the other party's mutant ability? How could it be so ridiculously powerful?

Thanos didn't understand why Du Mu looked so relaxed.

Is there really a way for him to leave the depths of the universe?

But how is this possible? Without the Space Gem and the stable wormhole, the distance of hundreds of thousands of light years is a natural barrier. No matter how fast the other party is, it is impossible to return to their hometown.

Distance itself is the most terrifying cage.

You know, even in the seemingly extremely active Milky Way, there are actually no superluminal vehicles.

The prosperity of the entire Milky Way depends on a densely packed network of wormholes that looks like a honeycomb.

If there is a wormhole near the earth, with the existing technology, we are already qualified to join the interstellar society, and at most we are equivalent to a backward and poor remote area.

After all, when Hulk went to Sakaar, he relied on an ordinary Quinjet. It was because he accidentally entered a wormhole that he ended up in the garbage dump of Sakaar after many twists and turns.

However, the conditions for the formation of a wormhole do not exist in the depths of the universe.

The location chosen by oneself is also random. Even if there is a wormhole within tens of thousands of light years, how could the other party be so lucky to encounter it?

Thanos was unable to make sense of the numerous issues and became more and more annoyed as the fight went on. Finally, he simply did not have the patience to continue this boring little game.

He gently placed the playing cards on the small table, looked at Du Mu, and asked in confusion: "Let's not talk about whether I am still a threat to you. I wanted to kill you with three gems in my hand before, and you were so broad-minded that you didn't mind at all?"

"At least, when there are a few ungrateful survivors of those planets where I killed half of their population in the past and they seek revenge on me, I will not hesitate to give them death."

"I thought you provided me with energy to recover in order to torture me, and I was mentally prepared, but you didn't seem to have that intention, which made me even more confused about you."

Sebastian looked up in surprise and looked at Thanos.

What did he hear?
Killed half the population of a planet?
Do you still want the survivors to be grateful?

When we Nazis used the Jews to make soap, we didn't expect the Jews to be grateful to us. Brother, you are more rebellious than us Nazis.

Sebastian really wanted to curl up the corners of his mouth and laugh at the other person, asking what nonsense he was talking about.
But looking around, I realized that I was floating in the universe.

So you are not a mutant, you are an alien.

How long had I lost consciousness before the Earth began to connect with alien civilizations?

Could it be that it has been sleeping for hundreds of years?
What about Earth? Have mutants taken charge, eliminated inferior genes, and become the only intelligent life on Earth?

Sebastian fell into uncontrollable thinking, and Du Mu also put down the poker cards in his hand...

There is only a 3, a 7, and a pair of 9s. If Thanos hadn't stopped playing, we might have lost this game.

He picked up the gourd and drank a sip of ice cola, then casually said to Thanos: "I really don't have any interest in torturing people. I usually kill them on the spot if I have a grudge."

"But your problem is a little special... because you are not the culprit, but just a pawn of the future man."

Thanos unconsciously clenched his fists.

A pawn?
Now it seems that this is indeed the case.

"Since you already possess the Mind Stone and are most familiar with its power, the other party knows how to gain your trust... Use the Mind Stone to directly transmit your future fear, despair, and the information your future self possesses to your present self."

"This is equivalent to you personally packing all the intelligence, so you naturally trust that information very much."

"So... the person from the future is at least very familiar with you, but he is also someone I don't know. That's why I need you to stay alive for now until I find the master who is hiding behind the curtain of time."

Thanos bowed his head in silence.

This is indeed why he believed the information instantly and took action immediately.

In fact, he did verify it... The first thing he did was to look for the safest and easiest to obtain power gem.

That is the gem among the Infinity Gems, symbolizing the most powerful military force.

It was the correct coordinates of that gem that increased the credibility of the other information several times.

The only problem is... Thanos never expected that even with the Power Stone in his hand, he would not be able to defeat Odin or DOOM.

Who could have imagined this?

This is just like when a certain country invented the nuclear bomb during World War I but still lost.

Moreover, they lost on the front battlefield due to insufficient firepower.

Who can bear this?

Although Thanos appears to be very calm on the surface, he is actually feeling extremely upset.

Although he had questioned this in his heart countless times, he still wanted to ask, those were the Infinity Stones, right? If one side could lose with the Infinity Stones, how could they lose with this?

Is it that the power of the gem is not as good as expected, or am I just too useless?
Thanos was unwilling to admit the latter...it could only be that his subordinates were too useless and failed to find the most crucial Time Stone, which led to their defeat by the opponent's extreme speed.

Du Mu took another sip of ice cola, with two words in his mind that he didn't say out loud.

That is... the time when the other party gave Thanos information was also just right.

Just before he gains the powers of a Kryptonian.

If Thanos didn't go to find the Power Stone, nor did he take the Power Stone to find Odin, but directly attacked the Earth with the Mind Stone, controlled the SHIELD agents, and snatched the Space Stone from SHIELD...

In this case, Thanos, holding two Infinity Stones, will indeed be extremely troublesome.

However, the problem came again.

Why not convey the message to Thanos a few days in advance?
Even half a year earlier?

Is it impossible?
For example...the night when I first came to Earth and treated Matt's eyes.

I have been on Earth all night and my strength is not strong, so this is the best time to take action.

It is for this reason that Du Mu is unsure of the identity of that future person.

This tendency, which seemed both kind and malicious, made Du Mu frown slightly, feeling very unhappy.

He thought that the Time Stone would be very safe in the hands of the Sorcerer Supreme.

But since the future Supreme Sorcerer would leave the Time Stone outside... or even worse, it means that the future Supreme Sorcerer has ill intentions towards me.

Then we can't allow the Time Stone to remain in the hands of the Sorcerer Supreme.

As for the question of whether the Sorcerer Supreme who has lost the Time Stone will be unable to protect the Earth... To be honest, Du Mu has never seen the usefulness of the Sorcerer Supreme in the movie.

At least during the time when Ancient One and Strange were both dead, the King, who did not have the Time Stone, also performed the duties of the Sorcerer Supreme competently and protected the Earth for several years.

It can't be possible that half of the evil gods in those five years were also killed by Thanos' snap of his fingers?

It seems that the only one who is interested in the Earth is Dormammu in the dark dimension, and he was talked away by Strange in one go.

The Sorcerer Supreme in the animation and comics does not rely on the power of the Time Stone, and has nothing to do with the system of Infinity Stones from the beginning, so he doesn't need it at all.

Well, but since I traveled through time, Ancient One has never appeared in front of me, which means that at least this Supreme Sorcerer still has good intentions towards me.

When the time comes, I'd better go talk to Gu Yi first. I hope she won't negotiate with me.

Du Mu naturally would not tell Thanos these thoughts.

What if people in the future think they are always so powerful and just find a random time to send a message to Thanos?

Wouldn't that mean I am exposing my own information?

Du Mu felt the increasingly thin force of space in his body, and estimated that he would only need one day to completely dispel the remaining effect of the space gem in his body and return to the martial arts hall.

This is also the reason why he controlled the flying carpet to rise continuously. He wanted to stay away from the place where the space gem was smashed. The space force there was too strong. If he stayed there for a year, he would not be able to return to the martial arts gym.

After listening to the conversation between Du Mu and Thanos, Sebastian's mouth opened slightly, and he always felt that he was not keeping up with the times.

What future, what time, what gem... Sebastian thought that his ability was the strongest in the world, and the only regret was that he could not defend against psychic attacks. At this moment, he deeply realized that... his ability might not keep up with the version.

The slightest bit of information revealed in the words made Sebastian tremble with fear.

And... greed.

The Mind Gem?
Leaving aside the other gems, the meaning of the Mind Gem, isn’t it… being able to control other people’s hearts?
In other words, obtaining the Mind Stone is equivalent to becoming a powerful psychic?
Then I can make up for my biggest shortcoming!
Sebastian clenched his fists slightly and glanced at Du Mu.

I must find a way to obtain the so-called Soul Gem...

As long as I have the Mind Gem, I will still be the Black Emperor!
"Oh, by the way, since we're not playing cards anymore."

Du Mu looked at Sebastian and smiled, "Then please get some more sleep."

Sebastian's expression suddenly changed. He looked at Du Mu in horror and shouted desperately, "Wait...!"

After just saying a word, Du Mu casually used a soul-capturing and telepathic technique to attack.

At the beginning, in the place where the power of space was strong, Du Mu didn't know how long he had to wait before allowing Sebastian to take a little break.

But now that we know that we can return to the martial arts gym tomorrow, there is naturally no point in keeping the other person's consciousness.

Accepting a disciple will give you ten times the ability?
Why go through so much trouble and have such a disgusting thing as a Nazi disciple?

Wouldn't it be better to just use Sebastian as equipment? You don't have to take the damage yourself.

Besides, Sebastian has become very proficient in the use of his abilities, probably far superior to the Red Devil and the White Queen, so even if he teaches him, it will not give any feedback.

Besides, he was the murderer of Eric's mother. If he really took him as his disciple, how would Eric and Pietro cope with it?
It’s better to continue to be a device without human rights.

Sebastian's eyes became dazed again, and finally lost focus completely, and he lowered his head.

Thanos saw this and his eyes narrowed slightly.

This guy...is definitely not a soft-hearted person.

However, Thanos stared at Sebastian for a long time, finally shook his head, and chuckled: "At least, if that future man wants us to die together, then his plan will probably fail."

He looked at Du Mu and said meaningfully: "According to what you just said, since you plan to find out who is behind this, it seems that you are really confident that you can return to the Milky Way..."

"That is why you took action to destroy the prisoner's will once again, because his mind is no longer scarce to you."

"Then I want to know...when can we return to the Milky Way?"

Du Mu said casually: "If it's fast, it will probably be tomorrow."

There was great confusion in Thanos' eyes.

But he didn't ask any more questions.

The second day on Earth is between 12 and 24 hours, and Thanos knows how short that period of time is.

He couldn't figure out how Du Mu would cross a distance of hundreds of thousands of light years...but he just had to wait a while and he would find out.

Thanos thought about it and picked up the playing cards on the table again.

"One more?"

Anyway, idle is idle.

----

New York is gradually recovering from the chaos.

Although New York City did not suffer any large-scale damage, the crash of the S.H.I.E.L.D. sky carrier was a devastating earthquake in the political arena of the entire world.

The silver lining in this misfortune is that... the invaders this time are suspected to be aliens.

alien……

These are words that are still somewhat unbelievable today, but not only were there a large number of eyewitnesses, but there was also the existence of Steve Rogers whose words carried enough weight.

More importantly...two alien bodies were preserved.

The autopsy and research on the two bodies completely confirmed their identity as aliens and completely defined this huge military conflict and extremely sensitive incident.

The governments of most small and medium-sized countries breathed a sigh of relief, while the big countries were all excited.

Small countries are relaxed because they know that this huge political earthquake will not lead to much change in the geopolitical situation on the earth.

Since they are aliens, there is certainly no reason for them to cause trouble for other countries.

The reason why the big countries are so excited... is naturally because the existence of aliens has been thoroughly confirmed, and with the current armed forces of mankind, it is enough to successfully resist the local invasion of aliens!
The clarion call of the Age of Exploration almost immediately rang in the ears of countless attentive people!

However, some are happy while others are sad.

Spider-Man and the reawakened Captain America have become synonymous with "superheroes" and are sought after by the whole nation.

On the other hand...Tony Stark, who opened the cosmic portal, was thrown into prison and became a traitor despised by all people.

The situations of the two are completely different.

Few people know about the existence of the Mind Scepter. In the eyes of most people, Tony Stark is the culprit who guided the aliens to come to Earth.

In public opinion, the unconscious Tony naturally became the best scapegoat for this incident.

If it weren't for Captain America's insistence that aliens have the means to brainwash and control people's minds, and if it weren't for other controlled SHIELD agents gradually waking up to prove this, Tony's current situation might be even worse.

Even so, Tony was held in a military base until his sanity was restored.

Seeing that Tony was relatively safe, Peter felt temporarily relieved and did not go directly to rob the execution ground.

He was wearing Spider-Man's uniform, and in the martial arts hall, he looked at his fellow apprentices in front of him and said in a deep voice: "Master is currently missing, but there are still two aliens roaming around on Earth."

"One of them is called General Dead Blade. The spear in his hand is indestructible. You must be extremely careful."

"The other person is called Black Dwarf. He is extremely powerful. If you find him, you must notify me or Brother Hulk. You are not allowed to act on your own."

Standing in the martial arts gym were Banner, Quicksilver, Cyclops, Nightcrawler, Jason and others.

After hearing Spider-Man's instructions, everyone except Banner nodded seriously.

On the other side of the Earth, on a Nordic grassland, Thor and Loki came here together to greet their father.

However, when the rich dark energy disappeared, Thor and Loki were shocked and hurried forward to support their father.

At this time, Odin's armor was torn and his body was covered with wounds.

On the armor, one could see obvious marks of purple flames, emitting a terrifying and frightening power.

Before Thor and Loki could speak eagerly, Odin raised his hand and stopped them from talking.

Then he said weakly: "I will die when the sun rises tomorrow."

"At that time, my seal on the underworld will also fail, and your sister will open the gate to the underworld and come to the place where I died."

Finally, Odin said in despair: "Maybe she is right..."

It was as if cannonballs were exploding in Thor and Loki's minds. They looked at each other, unable to accept so much information.

But at least, Thor understood that his father might not live long.

Just as Thor couldn't help showing a look of grief, Odin looked deeply at his son Thor, took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice: "You must tell your sister Hela that Asgard has been destroyed."

"Destroyed by Thanos holding the Power Stone... Let her avenge Asgard."

Thor suddenly couldn't control his emotions and trembled, "Where's mother? Father, is mother okay? Why didn't she come to Midgard with you..."

Loki also shuddered and looked at Odin.

Odin just closed his eyes in sorrow and remained silent for a long time.

No matter how powerful Odin is in the comics, his performance in the movie is just as strong as Zeus.

Otherwise, Thor 2 wouldn't have watched his wife being killed by the dark elves and remained indifferent.

I don’t want to think of Odin as too stupid, so I can only set him as old and weak, and his sleep was interrupted, and he is really about to die of old age.

Anyway, there are so many modified parts in the movie... Odin's strength is not a problem.
