"Testing pain simulation response."

A robotic arm wielded a steel whip, lashing it hard across the back of the T-1050.

"Well!"

The "man" let out a muffled groan, his back was torn open, and red "blood" flowed out. His facial muscles twitched, and his eyes revealed pain and fear.

It was an Oscar-worthy performance.

"Test complete."

next second.

The "blood" from the wound flowed backward, and the skin healed instantly, returning to its original state. The pained expression on the "man's" face also disappeared completely, restoring him to factory settings.

"The finished product has passed inspection."

The electronic sounds of Skynet echoed through the empty factory.

"Instruction loading: 'Override'".

"Target: Skrulls."

As the order was given, the first batch of T-1050s all raised their heads.

Their bodies began to change.

Its body surface wriggled, transforming into rough green skin, pointed ears, and that signature wrinkled chin.

In the blink of an eye, a hundred Skrulls stood there.

Their appearance, body temperature, and even micro-expressions are exactly the same as those of the real Skrulls.

"From this moment on, you are them."

"Go, my children."

The gate opened.

This group of perfect killing machines, with their orderly and silent steps, dispersed into this noisy world.

A game about "who is the imposter" is about to get upgraded.

……

The vast universe is filled with dazzling stars.

A deep blue spaceship is in a subspace channel, and the surrounding light is stretched into colorful lines.

Homelander One is moving at full speed.

Thanks to Stark Industries' upgraded quantum engine and Rocket Raccoon's advanced technology tuning, the spaceship reached an astonishing speed.

"How much longer? This damn jump is making me want to throw up."

Jessica Jones slumped in her seat, her face pale. It was her first time making such a long interstellar jump, and the feeling of her internal organs being pulled was unpleasant.

"Almost there, almost there! Don't rush us!"

An impatient sound came from the cockpit.

"One last jump! We're about to escape the subspace! Hold on tight to the handrails! Or grab onto anything!"

"I am Groot!" Groot excitedly raised his hands, as if he were on a roller coaster.

"Ready... 3, 2, 1! Escape!"

"Boom—Buzz!!"

The spaceship shuddered suddenly, and the elongated beams of light around it instantly contracted, turning into specks of starlight.

The immense inertia pressed everyone against the back of their chairs.

When vision returns to normal.

Everyone was stunned by the sight before them.

A strange planet floats in front of the spaceship.

"Oh God..."

Jessica leaned closer to the porthole, her eyes wide.

"That thing...it looks like a face."

Yes.

Viewed from space, the clouds and terrain on the surface of this planet cleverly form the outline of a giant human face.

Its eyes were closed, its nose was raised, and it even had a slightly open mouth.

It's like a head sleeping in the universe.

"This is Ego." Yondu sat in the passenger seat, looking at the planet with a complex expression. "A living planet."

"Okay, looks like we'll have to do some brain surgery on this big head."

Azu stood up from the massage chair and straightened his collar and cloak.

"Friday."

"I'm here, sir."

"Take control of the spacecraft and maintain a synchronous hovering orbit. Activate full-band stealth mode."

"Yes, sir. Stealth mode activated, shield fully charged."

Azu turned to Jessica and pointed to the metal eyeball in her hand.

"Ready? My war correspondent?"

"Anytime is fine." Jessica took a few deep breaths to calm herself down. Although her face was still a little pale, her eyes had become steady. "Full signal, 8K resolution."

"very good."

Azu put on his signature smile and tidied his skin.

"Then... let's start broadcasting!"

……

Earth.

It was 8 p.m. New York time, prime time.

Whether it's the giant screen in Times Square, the television sets in every household, or the mobile phone screens in the hands of young people.

The screen suddenly flashed.

The familiar golden "V" logo turned around, and then a vast starry sky background appeared.

And that face that puts the whole world at ease.

Hi, Earth family! Good evening!

Ah Zu waved at the camera, his tone as relaxed as if he were doing a live stream in his own backyard.

"I am from your homeland. Guess where I am now?"

The camera zooms out.

The giant planet with a human face appeared in the background of the image.

"Wow—!"

The earth instantly erupted in excitement.

The comments section was flooded with messages like crazy:

[My God! Is that the aliens' lair?]

[So fast! We're here already? Wotech is number one in the world!]

That planet... it looks like a face? It's a little scary...

Homelanders, be careful! That doesn't look like a good place!

Please come back safely! We love you!

……

Azu can't see the comments, but he can guess the reactions on Earth.

"That's right, this is our destination."

He pointed to the planet behind him and made a funny face.

"It looks a bit like one of those giant meatballs that have gotten moldy, right?"

Jessica couldn't help but let out a soft laugh off-camera.

"Okay, okay, enough joking around."

Ah Zu's smile faded, and his eyes became slightly more serious.

"We are about to land."

"This is not a drill, nor is it a movie. This is the first time humanity has set foot on this strange, evil planet."

"Let's go, family!"

"I will show you the malice hidden deep within this universe."

……

Ten minutes later.

A small shuttle passed through the atmosphere of Ego and landed on the planet's surface.

The shuttle cabin door opened, and Azu stepped down the ladder.

He turned slightly to the side so that the camera could capture the bizarre and wonderful scenery.

Various bubble-like plants swayed in the wind, the ground was covered with strange red vegetation, and countless glowing spores floated in the air, like fireflies filling the sky.

The distant mountains present bizarre shapes that defy geological logic, and waterfalls cascade down from the sky, flowing into colorful lakes.

The colors of the whole world were so intense they were almost bewitching.

"It looks like a scene that appears after eating hallucinogenic mushrooms," Jessica commented sharply.

Countless people watched the unimaginable scenes on the screen.

The comments flooded in like a waterfall:

[Oh my god! It really is aliens!]

What is that plant? It looks like a giant red blood cell?

[The people of our motherland are so cool!]

My mom asked me why I was kneeling while watching the live stream...

As Azu walked forward, he explained things like a tour guide.

Jessica followed closely behind him, but because the camera was brainwave controlled, and Jessica's mind... or rather her subconscious, was obviously not always under her control.
