The Plane War Begins from Wandering Earth

Chapter 376 375. Liu Qi: What is this plot?
The Elder of the Universe is the most mysterious existence in the current universe.

Few people know much about these "primitive lives" that have survived for billions of years.

Thor, the "Young Master of Asgard", is not sure.

The coalition government, a new force that had just arrived, naturally knew even less.

If it were any other cosmic elder member, there might really be nothing they could do.

But collectors?

The Guardians of the Galaxy actually happened to be able to contact each other.

Collectors have been collecting all kinds of rare treasures in the universe for billions of years.

That was a huge collection inventory that was enough to fill the entire Zhiwu Realm, but of course it was not something he could do alone.

In fact, collectors have posted bounty missions in many civilized races, including the Kree, the Supremes, and other places within their sphere of influence.

The Collector will of course also have connections with those well-known "treasure hunters" in the universe.

Fortunately, Star-Lord is such a well-known "treasure hunter".

Ever since the discovery of the Power Stone, the name Star-Lord has become famous among the group of "treasure hunters".

Before this, he was just an insignificant "interstellar wanderer".

For the group of "treasure hunters", the Collector, the elder of the universe, has a special meaning.

The bounty missions issued by the other party are often rewarded generously enough to make these "treasure hunters" financially independent.

The collector alone supports most of the treasure hunter community.

Star-Lord communicates with groups of treasure hunters with whom he had past connections, as well as with numerous teams of space predators.

The approximate area where the collector is currently located has been confirmed.

He then acted as a guide, excitedly leading the advance force towards the target destination.

Thor, the God of Thunder, has no interest in getting involved, even though according to the United Government's inference, Thor's mortal enemy Thanos is likely to appear at the Collector's place.

There was no way. After being brutally beaten by Thanos himself, Thor realized that there was a huge gap between his current strength and Thanos's.

He had to forge a powerful weapon that was suitable for his use.

Otherwise, facing Thanos again would only result in him being abused.

Considering the blood feud between Thor and Thanos' forces.

In addition, the Avengers members recognize Thor's strength.

Although Liu Qi has always doubted the strength of the so-called "gods" in this plane.

But the enemy of my enemy is my friend.

The United Government will not miss any opportunity to win over the hostile elements of Thanos' forces.

As the commander-in-chief of the advance army, Liu Qi specially arranged a special starship that prioritizes speed to carry Thor, the god of thunder, to "get equipment."

When the advance fleet arrived at the target area in a mighty manner, they found it was a dead asteroid belt.

"Is this what you call the 'realm of knowledge'?"

Liu Qi couldn't help but wonder if this group of "Galaxy Street slickers" were fooling him.

"Dear Commander-in-Chief, even for the sake of that interstellar battleship, I can't lie to you.

You know, this is the hiding place of an elder of the universe, how can it be easy to find.

Based on our experience as treasure hunters, the easiest way to get collectors to contact you is to have a collection that they appreciate.

The collector's realm of nothingness is an independent dimensional space.

As long as the other party doesn’t take the initiative to contact him, it’s impossible for ordinary people to find him…”

What Star-Lord said made sense. How could a member of an advanced civilization that had survived in the universe for billions of years be so easily exposed to the sight of others?

"A collection that can attract the other party?"

"Yes, generally speaking, advanced scientific and technological achievements from a certain advanced civilization in the universe, such as the interstellar battleships in your fleet, are qualified to become collectors' items.

As for whether the collector is willing to show up, it depends on whether he is satisfied with the collection now.

I also can't guess the inner thoughts of a member of the universe elders.

But I can confirm that the link anchor point between the Collector's Knowing Nothingness Domain and this plane of space is near this airspace."

There was no choice, Liu Qi could only choose to believe Star-Lord.

As for whether the other party was deceiving him, he was not worried.

Because the advance fleet has completely controlled the Guardians of the Galaxy.

In this situation, angering Liu Qi would be tantamount to seeking death.

Just as the United Government's advance fleet was waiting anxiously.

The Elder of the Universe, the Collector, had already observed from the realm of knowing nothing this fleet of a strange race and civilization that had come to visit without an appointment.

This is a completely new ethnic civilization. At least in the past thousand years that the Collector has experienced, he has not heard of any "united government" force.

Therefore, accordingly, the items of this force are of great collection value to him.

Although it is not possible to exchange it for precious real gems, it is still easy to get collectors to show up and communicate about "collection issues".

But collectors don't have time to deal with this right now.

Because in his Zhiwu Realm, he was welcoming a big customer with purple skin and a bald head.

A man who claims to be able to provide captives of the Elders of the Universe.

In the crystal clear and brilliant starry sky of the universe, there are enchanting stars twinkling everywhere.

Looking far into the distance, all the "planets" within sight are almost all filled with rare treasures as tall as mountains.

The most peculiar thing is that in this starry sky of the universe, time seems to have come to a standstill.

Among those vast quantities of rare treasures, there are many living creatures from other civilized races.

And now they all remain in the same posture.

What’s even more bizarre is that there is no dust, wind or clouds on these “planets” that store vast quantities of rare treasures.

Normal laws of physics do not exist in this space.

If I had to describe this place.

"Frozen pantry" seems like it would be a better fit.

A Chitauri flagship starship appeared here, seeming somewhat out of place.

His eyes swept across this strange space of the realm of nothingness.

Thanos's sight quickly focused on the tiny figure on the largest "planet" directly in front of him.

The Collector, the most mysterious of the elders of the universe.

"It's time to show me that collection you spoke of."

A clear sound appeared in my ears, but the collector's figure was still in the distance.

Thanos knew that the Collector had absolute control over his realm of knowledge.

Without much nonsense, Thanos slowly raised his hand.

A ball of light appeared in the Chitauri starship at the rear.

Imprisoned in this space confinement sphere is none other than the Runner, a member of the universe's elder clan.

The members of the universe elders recognize each other's status and acknowledge that they are both members of the most advanced civilized race that can best represent the current plane.

But this does not mean that they will necessarily love each other.

Over a period of billions of years, considerable conflicts have broken out among the members.

The Collector and the Runner are such a pair.

Restricted by the tacit rule among the universe elders that they cannot attack each other.

Runners and Collectors cannot harm each other.

But this does not prevent the collector from being very satisfied with the space prop in front of him that imprisoned the runner.

“Very good, I am satisfied.

What kind of return do you need?
Just say it, as long as I can do it..."

"I just want the Reality Stone." Everything was going smoothly until the words "Reality Stone" appeared in Thanos' mouth.

The Collector narrowed his eyes at the burly man with purple skin and a bald head.

No one, not even the other universe elders, knew exactly what the Collector looked like.

Perhaps what appears before your eyes is just an incarnation, a puppet prop.

"I promised the Asgardians to guard the Reality Stone.

Your request will make it very difficult for me to do it. "

"All the Asgardian refugees have died. I killed them with my own hands, including their young leaders, two of them.

So now your problem does not exist.

Give me the gem, and the Runner will be yours."

Thanos's domineering reply stunned the Collector, a veteran of the universe who had lived for billions of years.

But it must be said that he was extremely coveted for the space prop that imprisoned the runner.

Without this piece, the Collector would never have allowed Thanos to enter his realm of nothingness.

It is not known whether it was Thanos’ answer that convinced the Collector, or whether the Collector simply did not take his promise to the Asgardians to heart.

In short, the two sides quickly reached the stage of mutual transactions.

A mass of twisted "ether particles" that looked like dark matter slowly came in front of Thanos.

The space prop that imprisoned the runner also appeared in front of the collector.

Everything went smoothly.

It wasn't until Thanos took out the Power Stone and unleashed his power on the "Aether particles" in an attempt to destroy them and "purify" the Reality Stones wrapped inside the Aether particles.

But surprisingly, after being destroyed by the power of the power gem that was almost the rules of the plane.

The "ether particles" turned into nothingness, and there was no trace of the existence of real gems.

Thanos's face turned cold instantly.

"How dare you lie to me!"

His worries were not wrong. This "old cosmic monster" who had lived for billions of years had no intention of handing over the real reality gem to him.

The collector who was hiding behind a certain collection and spying on the whole process also had his pupils shrink.

The "packaging shell" of the "ether particle" is real, only the things inside are fake.

According to his plan, even if Thanos wanted to "inspect the goods", it would be impossible to open this "ether particle shell" in a short time.

But who could have imagined that the other party possessed such a miraculous item as the Power Stone.

The Collector's carefully prepared disguise was shattered in an instant.

After realizing that he had been deceived, the furious Thanos instantly unlocked the space props.

The runner trapped inside suddenly shot out like a cannonball, destroying a large number of collections.

“Knowledge without a field?
So it's you, the collector, who's causing trouble?!"

After the runner regained his freedom and found himself in the realm of nothingness, he instantly came up with a lot of conspiracy theories.

How could a mortal dare to do anything bad to me?

There must be some other mastermind behind this.

The appearance of the Collector perfectly fits the identity of the big boss in his conspiracy theory.

The furious runner began to wreak havoc in the realm of nothingness with his unparalleled speed.

“Damn Collector, come out!

I'm going to skin you alive!"

The collections piled up like mountains on a planet are turning into piles of garbage fragments at a speed visible to the naked eye under the high-speed impact of the runner.

Perhaps because he was afraid of the power of the Power Stone in Thanos's hand, the Runner did not cause trouble for Thanos.

On the other side, Thanos also joined in the destruction of the realm of nothingness.

By unleashing the power of the Space Gem, the "storage space" of the Knowledgeless Realm, which is as huge as an asteroid, is continuously compressed.

Then he used the power of the Power Stone and completely tore the compressed "storage space" into pieces with one punch.

The Runner and Thanos.

One is pure speed, the other is ultimate crushing power.

As a result of their spontaneous "collaborative efforts", the entire collection of the Zhiwu Realm began to collapse and be damaged.

The collector hiding in the corner was almost furious at this moment.

These are the collections he spent billions of years and countless efforts to collect.

Most of them are even unique pieces.

Nothing is more devastating to a collector than having his or her collection destroyed in front of him or her.

What is even more troubling for collectors is that although the space of the Zhiwu Realm is large, it is not infinite.

Judging from the speed at which the Runner and Thanos are destroying houses, it is probably only a matter of time before they find me.

Even though the collector has begun to use his powerful collections to try to stop the two.

But the runner ignored those difficult collection items and focused only on destroying other collection items.

Because he knew that seeing his collection destroyed would be more painful than killing the collector.

It is even more difficult for Thanos, who has the blessing of space and the power gem.

The collector's trap props simply don't work.

"We have to find a way to lure them out!"

Collectors think so.

There is no realm beyond knowledge.

The advance fleet was still waiting boredly.

“As a treasure hunter, patience is an important quality.

I once lurked in the fetid mire of Hafele for 72 hours.

Finally, we succeeded in capturing the baby of the ominous rhino..."

Star-Lord also gave a long speech about his career as a treasure hunter, which he considered to be a legend.

However, the patience of Liu Qi, commander-in-chief of the advance army, was almost exhausted.

He increasingly felt that these "Galaxy Street Drifters" were unreliable.

Before he could continue to put pressure on Star-Lord and others, irregular space cracks began to appear in the starry sky ahead of the fleet.

"It's His Excellency the Elder Collector of the Universe!"

Looking at the spatial projection of the collector who was regarded as a legend among the treasure hunters appearing in front of him.

Star-Lord shouted excitedly.

Perhaps in order to prove his value as a "contact person" to Liu Qi, Star-Lord activated the public channel communication speaker on the spacecraft.

"Mr. Collector!
We came here with sincerity.

I want to exchange it with the real gems in your collection..."

Star-Lord is still trying to communicate with the Collector.

However, the next moment, a gem flashing red light emerged from the space crack and shot towards the Guardians of the Galaxy spaceship.

Star-Lord: Could this be...

Mantis: It's the breath of the Reality Stone!

Rocket Raccoon: Collector? Philanthropist!

Liu Qi: What the hell! What kind of plot is this?
Gamora: Run away! The Chitauri ship in front is Thanos' flagship!

The space crack was torn bigger and bigger until a Chitauri battleship appeared in front of everyone.
