Become a Homelander and a Marvel superstar

Soverein, thousands of light-years away.

Inside the magnificent throne room, Ayesha, the Golden High Priestess of Sovereign, was staring intently at the screen.

"Humanity's most primitive form of communication..."

Ayesha repeated the words, her golden fingers unconsciously stroking the armrest.

The Sovereigns reproduce through genetic cocoons, eliminating all uncontrollable genetic variables in pursuit of ultimate perfection and order.

That man, with his own strength alone, destroyed her entire golden fleet, which she was so proud of.

"A perfect creature..." Ayesha's lips parted slightly, her voice trembling with excitement.

"What was that person's name?"

"Based on intercepted relay signals... they call him 'Homelander'."

"Homelanders..."

Ayesha murmured the name, a barely perceptible longing in her eyes.

"High Priest?" a subordinate asked cautiously. "We still have two reconnaissance planes left. Should we withdraw?"

"No."

Ayesha raised her head, resuming her aloof demeanor.

"Activate silent stealth mode and follow him."

"I want to know everything about him."

"yes!"

……

High in the sky above Ego Star.

"Buzz—"

The air vibrated slightly as two surviving stealth reconnaissance planes silently followed behind Azu.

Azu's ears twitched slightly, and he smiled to himself.

Ignoring the tail behind him, he turned around and transformed into a red and blue shooting star, flying towards the temple.

……

"Bang--!"

With a loud crash, the heavy doors of the Temple of Ego were kicked open and slammed onto the floor inside the temple, kicking up a cloud of dust.

The center of the temple.

Igor was basking in the blue divine light with his arms outstretched, eyes closed, and a look of pure bliss on his face.

That was the energy essence fed back from countless planets being devoured by the seeds of the gods.

Above him, Peter Quill was pinned to the ground in mid-air in a "T" shape by a glowing energy tentacle.

At this moment, Star-Lord's face was contorted and his eyes rolled back, clearly indicating that he was enduring immense pain.

"Quill!!"

Gamora shouted.

This shout broke Igor's "eating" time.

He slowly opened his eyes, looked at the crowd that had barged in, and showed an impatient expression on his face, like a fly flying into a plate while enjoying a feast.

"I don't remember sending out any party invitations."

Igor shook his head, his tone arrogant.

"Especially you, Yondu. You lowly person who only sells your soul for money, how dare you step into the temple?"

Yondu remained silent.

He just kept his eyes fixed on Quill, who was pinned in mid-air.

The Earth boy he raised from childhood, who always caused trouble and gave him headaches, but whom he always treated as his own son.

At this moment, however, they are being used as batteries to drain their life force.

"Inferior..." Yondu grinned, revealing a set of uneven, rotten teeth.

His coat billowed, and the Yaka arrow at his waist slowly rose, its arrowhead flashing a bloodthirsty red light.

"call out--!!!"

A short, sharp whistle.

A red light suddenly appeared.

The Yaka arrows seemed to break free from the constraints of space, drawing clear red trails in the air.

It began frantically circling around Igor's body.

Puff! Puff! Puff! Puff! Puff!

The sounds of piercing came one after another.

In a fraction of a second, it pierced through Igor's chest, abdomen, limbs, and neck hundreds of times!

"Well done, Blue-skinned Daddy!"

Rocket Raccoon yelled, his energy cannon already fully charged.

"Eat my particle feast!"

"boom--!"

The thick beam of energy slammed directly into Ego's chest, sending his riddled body flying backward.

"ah--!"

Igor let out a scream as his body became mangled beyond recognition.

But he was, after all, a god.

Under the blue light, the pierced wounds writhed and healed rapidly.

"Keep going! Don't stop!!"

Gamora shouted, leaping high into the air like a cheetah, her sword aimed at Ego's head.

Nebula's robotic arm changes shape, followed by a high-voltage pulse.

Under the combined assault of several people, Ego didn't even have time to utter a complete villainous line before his human body completely disintegrated, turning into countless blue specks of light that vanished into the air.

As the avatar dissipated, the tentacles binding Star-Lord also vanished instantly.

Quill lost his footing and fell from mid-air.

"Quail!"

Gamora slid over and caught Star-Lord as he fell.

Meanwhile, in Missouri, far away on Earth.

The seed of the celestial being, which was growing wildly, seemed to have lost its source of power.

All the blue substances suddenly stopped moving.

The energy surge that was about to break through the sealing array subsided and turned into a pile of hard blue crystals, solidified on the ground.

"It worked?"

Wanda, who had been struggling to keep going, felt the pressure suddenly ease and wiped the sweat from her forehead.

……

……

Inside the Temple of Igor.

Gamora helped Quill up.

"Are you alright, you idiot?"

Her tone remained cold, but her movements were gentle.

"Hey... Gamora."

"I knew you would come."

Quill clutched his chest, where a dull ache still lingered.

"I knew that old bastard was up to no good." Gamora glared at him. "I told you long ago, he's not your good father."

Quill gave a wry smile, clutching his chest, which was still throbbing slightly.

"‘I told you so’...that’s the last thing I want to hear. It comes before ‘We need to talk.’"

"That's why I came to rescue you, isn't it?"

"Yeah..." Quill chuckled, "...which means we're bound together by the red thread of fate."

"On Earth, this is called destiny."

"Bullshit! That's not true! You're overthinking it!" Gamora retorted.

"vomit……"

The rocket next to him made a vomiting face.

"Please, can you two be a little more mindful of the occasion when you're flirting?"

"I feel like throwing up! Seriously, my stomach acid is rising!"

Jessica, still professionally holding the camera, glanced at the empty hall around her and frowned in confusion.

"it's over?"

"That Igor... the god? He's dead just like that?"

"This is way too easy!" Jessica complained with a look of disdain.

"I thought there would be some kind of three-stage transformation or a full-screen ultimate move. Instead, I got killed by a flurry of punches?"

"Easy?" Rocket patted his chest, looking smug.

"That's because I'm here!"

It struck what it thought was its coolest pose for Jessica's camera.

"This is all part of my Rocket Grandpa's plan!"

"This is called a 'lightning strike'! Understand? Catch him off guard, concentrate your firepower, and take him down in one fell swoop!"

Meanwhile, in the live broadcast room on Earth, the viewers were also completely bewildered.

Is that all?

[I just went to the restroom, and when I came back, the boss was gone?]

[That was so fast! I already had popcorn ready.]

[A god? That's all?]

[It doesn't feel as intense as a gang fight on the streets of New York.]

"Bang!"

Suddenly, a large hole burst open in the side wall of the temple.

Two figures burst in, panting heavily.
