Become a Homelander and a Marvel superstar

Gamora watched this scene from the side, and seeing Nebula's unprecedented expression, she couldn't bring herself to say anything sarcastic.

"So, I guess we're friends now?"

Azu stood up and pulled Nebula up with him.

He then looked at Gamora and extended his hand as well.

"And you, Ms. Assassin, although you have a bit of a temper, I can tell you're protecting her."

"You're a good older sister, but you're a little clumsy in expressing yourself."

Gamora looked at the hand, hesitated for a moment, and finally grasped it.

Use leverage to get back on your feet.

"My name is Gamora," she said coolly, but there was no longer any hostility in her voice.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Gamora, Nebula."

"My name is Anthony Starr, you can call me Homelander." Azu raised his hand and gestured towards Jessica.

"This is my most capable and best partner—Jessica Jones."

Jessica, who was holding a camera nearby, couldn't help but roll her eyes, her fingers cracking as she clenched them.

But she still freed one hand and waved to Nebula and Gamora.

"Hey alien hotties, I'm Jessica. By the way, don't believe his nonsense, he says that to all pretty girls."

Although she was filled with jealousy, she was even angrier at herself for falling for it.

Looking at Ah Zu's seemingly radiant appearance, he couldn't help but curse inwardly.

"...Damn it, why do I even think he looked kind of handsome just now?"

Hint! Gained +8000 Special Popularity Points! (From Gamora)

Hint! Gained +15000 Special Popularity Points! (From Nebula)

And at this very moment, on Earth.

The live stream chat was flooded with comments.

Oh my god! The people of our motherland are so kind!

Jessica's jealous! Hahaha!

[Oh my god, Homelander is so good! That look, that tone of voice! If he said those things to me, I'd give him my virginity!!]

That Smurfette is so cool, an exoskeleton?

[I declare, for this very moment, I don't want to be human anymore, I want to be that cyborg!]

"You are unique in this starry sky"—God, I want to get that phrase tattooed on my body!

This is a true hero—possessing not only strength but also a compassionate heart!

The sound of popularity points being gained echoed in his mind again, and Ah Zu was in a great mood.

Looking at the two female warriors who were originally full of murderous intent, one now had a smile on her face, while the other's eyes were darting away.

The Rocket Raccoon behind was so shocked that its jaw almost dropped to the ground.

"What the hell..." Rocket nudged Yondu next to him, "Is this Homelander's mouth filled with aphrodisiac dispensers?"

"Take note, Rocket." Yondu stroked his chin thoughtfully. "That's called charisma. In some situations, it's far more effective than your gun."

Just as the atmosphere was becoming friendly.

Azu's expression suddenly changed as he looked into the depths of the dark cave.

The change in expression was extremely natural, instantly shifting from gentle to solemn.

"What's wrong?" Gamora asked alertly.

"There's something... in there."

Ah Zu squinted, as if he had seen something terrifying.

"Something very bad..."

"Come with me."

With a flick of his cloak, Azu took the lead and headed towards the cave.

The group looked at each other, but were also affected by Azu's serious expression, and followed him.

The cave was dimly lit, and the further you went in, the stronger the stench of decay became.

at last.

They reached the end of the cave.

Jessica turned on the camera's flashlight.

"Smack."

The beam of light illuminated the darkness ahead.

"Wodefa—"

Everyone gasped at that moment.

Endless skeletons.

Those were piles of bones, from small to large, in various shapes and from various races.

They piled up in layers throughout the entire enormous cave, stretching into the depths of darkness.

Those empty eye sockets seemed to be telling the story of the horrors they had experienced in their lives.

"My God..." Jessica covered her mouth, almost dropping the camera in her hand.

The cheerful chat in the live stream room disappeared instantly.

First came silence, followed by an explosion of fear and anger.

[Oh my god... what is that?]

Are those skeletons? They're piled up like a mountain!

My God... are those human bones?

So many... how many people are there?

Is that a child? Judging by the size of that skull…

Why are there still children? Is this planet hell?!

[A demon! This is a demon!]

Homelander! Kill him! You must kill him!

"Who...who are these people?"

The rocket's voice, unusually devoid of its usual sarcasm, began to tremble.

Azu stood in front of the pile of bones.

He knows who these people are.

These are all Igor's "children".

These are the offspring that Ego sowed throughout the universe in his search for a successor with the genes of the gods.

Igor hired Yondu to bring them back to test whether they possessed divine power.

If not...

Then kill it, throw it into this hole, and let it become nourishment for this planet.

This was a massacre that spanned countless years, targeting one's own flesh and blood.

Azu turned to look at Yongdu, whose face was gloomy.

"Mr. Yondu...do you know something?"

All eyes immediately turned to Yondu.

Yondu's lips trembled.

As he looked at the skeletons, memories he had deliberately buried were unearthed.

One after another...

These children, who once sat in his spaceship, curiously asked him, "Where's Daddy?"

He told them, "Your father is a god, and he will give you the best life."

Then, he personally sent them to this hell.

Every trade, every time Igor smiled and said, "I'll take good care of them," every time he left with the money...

He kept telling himself that it was for the children's good, to find them a good father.

He kept forcing himself not to think about what happened to those children.

But now, the truth is laid bare before us.

Those piles of white bones were the lives of the people he had personally sent onto the spaceship.

"These...are all his children."

"In order to find a worthy successor, he sowed seeds throughout the universe, and then hired people to bring these children back."

"I'm also one of his employees..."

He said... he would take good care of them.

"I thought...I thought he was just..."

"You think he just wants to be a good father?" Azu stepped forward, grabbed Yondu by the collar, and lifted him up.

Look at these!

"This is what you mean by 'take good care of me'?!"

Ah Zu's anger was both feigned and genuine.

Although he did it for the sake of the live stream, anyone with a modicum of moral conscience would feel outraged by such an inhumane act.

"Yondu, you're not stupid."

"You've delivered so many packages, have you ever seen a child grow up? Have you ever seen a child walk out into the world?"

"You really... know nothing at all?"

"Or are you simply choosing... not to think about it?"

Yondu closed his eyes in anguish.

Yes.

He had already sensed the problem, but he kept avoiding it.

He was afraid that he had really sent those children to hell.

So, when they met Peter Quill, that kid from Earth.

He finally made up his mind and took Quill into his care.

But he saved Quill.

But he couldn't save the hundreds of children he had sent away.
