"What? One of Thanos's fleets was wiped out?"

Inside the council chamber of the Wakanda royal palace, everyone who heard the news of Athena was shocked, but even more so, they were relieved that Adam was still on their side.

"Yes, Master has already kept them at Pluto, and he wants the four of you—Grace, Phoenix, and Flame Storm—to go to the Watchtower and wait for Thanos's forces to come again, so that you and Master can work together to take action," Athena said calmly.

"I knew he wouldn't just stand by and watch someone die," the woman said happily upon hearing this.

After all, although Adam is not his cousin himself, according to the Flash's theory, Adam is a multiple incarnation of a human in this universe, so he is more or less related to the female character, probably.

So the woman didn't want Adam to become a cold-blooded and ruthless person. Therefore, although she knew that Adam's current state was inseparable from the US government, she still wanted to persuade him and tell them what the big 'S' on his chest meant. Fortunately, the other party didn't really not want to help, which made her very gratified. Well, in the end, she still regarded Adam as her cousin.

"Does Mr. Adam mean for us to stop Thanos on Pluto?" Dr. Stein thought for a moment and understood Adam's intention, then asked.

"Well, if a battle between Thanos and Master of that level were to take place on Earth, it might cause even more serious damage to the planet. In that case, it wouldn't be protecting the Earth, but destroying it," Athena shrugged and said.

"Then what about the rest of us?" Iron Man asked, somewhat puzzled. "If the battlefield is set up on Pluto, some of us won't be able to participate in the battle."

“Your responsibility is far greater than the battle itself. While our master and the others hold off Thanos, his forces will still attack Earth. At that time, our master and the others will be unable to stop them, so it is up to you to stop them,” Athena explained.

"By the way, I've found the whereabouts of the four Fantastic Four, but unfortunately, the Thing is already dead," Black Widow suddenly said.

"The Thing is dead? How could that be?" Tony asked in shock. "Didn't they say they were going to explore the source of that cosmic ray and went into outer space?"

"That's what they said, but unfortunately when we found them, they were being held in an underwater prison by the military, and they refused to help," Black Widow sighed.

"Those sons of bitches!" Tony cursed immediately after hearing this.

At this point, the woman and several others from other universes realized that this world was different from their own. In their world, governments and superheroes helped each other, but in this world, the government seemed to be hostile towards these superhumans. No wonder Adam was unwilling to help in the first place.

"Where are they?" Athena asked, frowning.

"They've already been rescued by S.H.I.E.L.D., but unfortunately, the Human Torch has lost his powers, Mr. Fantastic's lower body is paralyzed, and as for the Invisible Woman, her powers have gone berserk, and she's been invisible ever since; nobody knows where she is," Hawkeye explained from the side.

"Alright, let's put that aside for now. Let's discuss how to stop this fight." T'Challa suddenly interrupted Hawkeye, who was speaking, and subtly glanced at the women and others whose expressions had changed, before abruptly changing the subject.

Chapter 455 Thanos is Here

World War III was started by Red Skull's nanobots, but human greed played a significant role in its escalation to its current scale. Red Skull gave some nations hope for greater strength and others hope for liberation from the shadow of superpowers. However, all of this ended when Red Skull was captured and superheroes and mutants were exempted from the war.

Ultimately, when this war broke out, the superpowers were afraid of being condemned by international public opinion for killing those controlled by nanobots. Therefore, each attack was not very intense. In addition, the appearance of the Avengers prevented these superpowers from directly using weapons of mass destruction, which is why it was delayed for several months. By this time, all the controlled people had been rescued by the speedsters and their time remnants. So the outcome of this war was self-evident.

Aside from the superpowers gaining a few more vassal states, the war didn't yield any significant results. As for why those who started the war became vassal states, Exukuzmi, do you think war is child's play? That there are no consequences? Apart from Germany, which had to pay fines to the victorious powers because its entire territory was under their control, the other countries that initiated the war were completely devoured by these superpowers. That's the truth!

Okay, having talked about things on Earth, let's look at things in outer space. In the months since the Avengers stopped and ended this war, Thanos's vanguard fleet has appeared no less than five times, and almost every time it was stronger than the last. Fortunately, Adam wasn't alone; he had the help of Supergirl and others, which is why he was always able to successfully stop Thanos's fleet near Pluto each time it arrived, never letting them get any closer.

Inside the watchtower, all those capable of cosmic-level combat are present. In addition to some of the Avengers, there are a few more people, or rather, gods: Thor from Asgard and his brother, Loki, the evil god who previously invaded Earth. As for why Loki is here and is preparing to help Earth resist Thanos, we can only start from the last invasion.

Adam initially didn't trust Loki's character, but Thor made a guarantee, and Loki also admitted that he needed to break free from Thanos's shadow, and this was a better opportunity. With the guarantees of the two men, plus several warriors from Asgard who could fight in the vacuum of space, Adam agreed to let them join.

On this day, Adam and his companions gathered in the watchtower as usual. A few days ago, they had once again defeated Thanos's fleet, and this time the fleet included several powerful individuals like themselves who could fight in a vacuum. It took them some time to annihilate all the invaders.

“This is the sixth attack already. Thanos has obtained all of our combat data. The next one might not be so easy,” Thor said to Adam.

"Yes, I know. And after these battles, he knows that he can't get the Infinity Stones if he doesn't show up. He might come in person next time," Adam nodded slightly after hearing Thor's words.

“I think you should remind these people that this battle won’t be as simple as the one you had with me last time. If the portal hadn’t suddenly closed last time, Earth would have been mine long ago,” Loki sneered from the side.

"Do you remember who was tossing you around, Loki?" Tony retorted sarcastically upon hearing Loki's words.

Loki's expression changed. He glanced at Bruce Banner, who was chatting happily with Dr. Stein, and snorted without saying a word. He had thought conquering Earth would be too easy, but he never expected to suffer such a huge blow on Earth.

"Alright, let's not dwell on the past. This time, we all have a common enemy," Thor said, waving his hand to stop his brother from getting angry.

"Alright, I'll forgive you this time, you mortal." Loki was still wary of Adam and the Hulk, not to mention there were several other monsters like the Hulk here. Thinking about his own plans, he chose to remain silent.

All his plans were based on his own safety. He was almost on the verge of becoming the King of Asgard, but he never expected that by using Thanos's power, he would end up damaging someone else's ship. The other party wanted to control Asgard through him and continue to control him.

Although Loki knew Thanos's true power, he was not used to being someone else's dog. He was a god who had just risen to power, so how could he be willing to be the subordinate of a Titan descendant and a group of losers? Therefore, when he heard that Adam and the others were preparing to fight Thanos head-on, he went directly to his brother and asked for help.

Thor had always wanted to reconcile with his brother, and this time, his brother actually said he wanted to fight Thanos with the humans. This gave him a glimmer of hope for reconciliation, so he eagerly came to Earth and explained his purpose. Fortunately, Adam agreed to his request out of consideration for the other Asgardian gods.

Of course, if Loki knew what his brother was thinking, he would definitely say, "Foolish brother."

On the other side, Supergirl, Phoenix, and other female superheroes sat together, frowning as they watched Tony and Loki exchanging sarcastic remarks. "What's going on with them?" they asked.

“Loki led a massive alien invasion of Earth before, but we stopped him.” Phoenix shrugged after saying that. “As for why he’s here now, I have no idea.”

“He used to work for Thanos. After we defeated him last time, it’s said that Thanos has also set his sights on him. Last time, Thanos helped a group of dark elves massacre Asgard, causing their father to disappear. This time, they may be here for revenge,” Athena explained from the side.

"Are they gods?" the Super Girl asked in confusion.

“Yes, he calls himself a god, but according to my master, they were just aliens who came to Earth thousands of years ago. They were called gods because their power was miraculous to the people of Earth at that time.” Athena said with a hint of disdain, “And there are not many truly powerful ones among them.”

"By the way, I've always wanted to ask, why do you call Adam 'Master'?" the Supergirl asked, puzzled.

“Because I was created by the master.” Athena finished speaking and, seeing that Supergirl still looked puzzled, said, “I was originally an intelligent program, but eventually, for various reasons, I slowly evolved into a life form.”

"Wow, that's so cool," the Super Girl exclaimed.

Just then, an alarm suddenly sounded in the watchtower. Athena flashed into the control room, saw the screen, and immediately said to Adam through the loudspeaker, "Master, Thanos and his men have appeared!"

"Oh, Thanos has appeared?" Adam was taken aback upon hearing this, and then asked.

“That’s right. Based on the image Loki showed me, I’m sure this is Thanos’s palace.” Athena said, showing the image to Adam and the others.

Upon seeing the image transmitted by Athena, Loki glanced at it and said, "That's right, this is it. The Thanos palace I saw last time was on this asteroid."

"Looks like they've already chosen the battlefield for us." Tony stood in front of the virtual image and said, "In that case, shouldn't we get going?"

Adam nodded slightly and said, "Gentlemen, it's time to settle things with Thanos!"

Upon hearing this, the others went over and put on their uniforms. These uniforms were no longer the ones they had made for various reasons. They were uniforms that Athena and Adam had repeatedly researched and upgraded over the past month. They not only had super high technological power but also traces of Athena's unique alchemy, all for the sake of winning this battle.

"Athena, send a message to the people on Earth and tell them to prepare," Adam said to Athena. "I don't want Earth to be gone when we defeat Thanos."

"Don't worry, Master, I've already spoken to them. Constantine and the others are on guard there, and I've granted him some access to the watchtower," Athena said to Adam.

"OK, let's go then!" Adam said, his eyes blazing with fighting spirit.

Chapter 456 The Final Battle

In the vast universe, somewhere near the dwarf planet Pluto in the Milky Way, an asteroid about half the size of the moon suddenly appeared. The asteroid was shimmering with blue light, as if it were adorned with countless jewels. At the center of the asteroid's surface was a huge throne, and a tall and mighty figure sat on it.

The figure sitting on the throne is Thanos, the cosmic overlord. He has been searching for and collecting the Infinity Stones, but he has encountered some trouble. The Power Stone has been stolen by Star-Lord and his crew, the Soul Stone is in the hands of someone else, and that person is a ruthless character. As for the Manifestation Stone, it is in the hands of the Collector, who is also a cunning fox. And Earth has a total of three Infinity Stones.

The fact that all six Infinity Stones were in the hands of others infuriated Thanos. If it were a powerful figure possessing the Infinity Stones, it wouldn't be so bad, but Earth was a very backward planet. If Loki hadn't mentioned that the Space Stone was on Earth, Thanos would never have even imagined that such a planet existed. Yet, this very planet that Thanos looked down upon possessed three of the six Infinity Stones. How could this not enrage Thanos, and how could he not take action himself?

Thanos had been preparing for this for a long time, constantly sending people to investigate things on Earth, to find out the location of the planet, and so on. All of this was for the sake of obtaining the three Infinity Stones. And now, the moment was about to arrive. Thanos sat on his throne, gazing at the boundless universe in a daze.

Just then, an alien about two meters tall with a brown body, holding a crescent axe about the same height as himself, came to Thanos's throne.

"What is it?" Thanos asked.

The axe-wielding man scratched his head and said, "The Earthlings are here, blocking our way. They seem to want to finish us off here, hahahaha."

"Earthlings? Heh, they've arrived pretty quickly." Thanos said nonchalantly, "You guys go and fight them first. I want to see just how powerful they are."

Although Thanos had learned about the strength of these people through the battle footage of the warships, he had not actually fought them face to face. Even so, Thanos was very confident in his subordinates, so he was in no hurry to make a move and wanted to let his men test the true strength of the enemy.

The only person he truly paid attention to was Adam Stark, who had a large "S" on his chest. Yes, he was someone who could continuously grow stronger as long as he stayed in the solar system, a Kryptonian whom he had spent some time getting to know.

------The scene shifts to the other side----------

Adam and the others arrived at Thanos's palace through the teleportation chamber and learned about the enormous size of this asteroid. Although it was slightly smaller than the moon, it was still too big for humans, and there were countless warriors standing on it.

"Looks like this is going to be tough," Tony said through the communicator.

"Yes, and it's going to be a tough battle that we have to finish quickly, because at the speed of this asteroid, it will reach Earth in less than three hours. So we only have three hours left, otherwise Earth may be destroyed because of our battle." Adam glanced at the asteroid and immediately calculated some of its data.

"A quick victory?" Thor, standing beside Adam, looked down at the densely packed alien army and said, "How can we achieve a quick victory against so many people?"

"Think of a way!" After Adam finished speaking, he accelerated and walked into the alien army to begin the battle.

When the others saw Adam start fighting, they also joined in. Since almost everyone who came here was an elite among elites, dealing with these soldiers was quite easy. The problem was that there were just too many soldiers. What was even more disgusting about Thanos's people was that there were some powerful individuals hidden among the ordinary soldiers.

In reality, these ordinary soldiers would be considered powerful figures capable of dominating some planets, but under Thanos, they could only become cannon fodder. After all, Thanos's domain was too vast. Even a planet like Earth could produce so many superheroes and supervillains, so there must be many more in other domains, just of different quality.

"This can't go on. We haven't even seen Thanos yet. If we continue fighting, we might lose." After Flamestorm wiped out countless alien soldiers with a single powerful attack, he said to Adam.

“That’s right, we have to find a way.” Tony landed next to Adam and said, “We’ve been fighting for almost ten minutes now, and there are just too many of these guys.”

"Then let's ignore these small fry. I'll clear a path for everyone. Charles, calculate our position and then send over every single one of our mechanical battle groups." After Adam finished speaking, he immediately took off, his eyes turning bloodshot, and a scorching beam shot out, carving a straight path through the densely packed cannon fodder battle groups in front of him.

Upon seeing the path, the others immediately repelled the enemies who were entangled with them and ran towards the top of the asteroid. Thanks to Adam's continuous attacks, Supergirl and the others had reached the middle layer of this asteroid, which resembled half an egg. There, thousands of warriors, clearly different from the cannon fodder below, were waiting for them.

After Adam saw everyone had gone up, he took a deep breath and blew hard at the cannon fodder at the bottom. A strong blast of cold air hit them, freezing some of the alien soldiers at the front into blocks of ice. Then Adam descended from the sky and created a huge crack in the ground to prevent the minions from catching up. He then flew towards the middle level.

Shortly after Adam left, the light of the teleportation array reappeared not far away, right next to the chasm Adam had created. This time, the teleportation array wasn't fleeting; it remained active, with one mechanical warrior after another emerging from the open portal to meet the alien minions. Fortunately, the Watchtower's teleportation technology was adequate, capable of determining one-way or two-way teleportation, thus preventing Thanos's minions from ending up at the Watchtower.

At the top, Thanos stood expressionless on his throne. In front of him was a dark blue virtual screen showing the battle scenes of Adam and his companions. When he saw the teleportation array that appeared above his palace, Thanos's expression finally changed.

"As expected, the Space Stone is right there." Thanos looked at the teleportation array that was flashing with blue light and said, word by word, "Thalus, you guys should make your move too, don't wait any longer."

In the shadows behind Thanos, a man dressed as an ancient wizard, holding a book, gently closed the book upon hearing Thanos's voice, responded to Thanos's words, and then disappeared.

In the middle level of Thanos's palace, Adam and his companions continued their battle. Although they had successfully left the massive number of minions behind, what appeared before them was far more powerful than those minions, forcing them to temporarily halt their advance.

"This feels like a video game," Tony said to the Doctor Who standing next to him after blasting his enemy to death with an energy blast.

"Indeed, it seems like Thanos is giving us a little test?" Doctor Who kept casting spells with his hands, dealing with three or four enemies, and didn't forget to joke with Tony.

"This is indeed a test by Thanos. The real core is on that mountain, where Thanos's five most powerful henchmen live. As for Thanos himself, he sits on a throne at the very top." The only person who had been here before, Loki, stood beside Tony, watching the group fighting, and said, "If I hadn't heard that guy was here too, I wouldn't have wanted to get involved in your battle at all."

The guy Loki was referring to was definitely Adam himself. He had witnessed Adam's power before, which is why he agreed to join the fight when Thor said he would help humanity fight Thanos, and also to free himself from Thanos's control.

Although he had been staying in Asgard, he still knew a great deal about Earth. He knew that Adam was about to leave, Thanos was dead, and Adam was leaving. Who could stop him from ruling Asgard and Earth? It was with this thought in mind that Loki participated in this war. As for his dark history of being tossed around by the Hulk, it wasn't that he could forget it, but rather that he wouldn't be foolish enough to fight a tank like he had in previous battles. After all, he was a sorcerer, especially skilled in magic that controlled minds and created illusions.

Chapter 457 The Final Battle Part 2

In the middle level of Thanos's palace, a fierce battle was taking place. Several superheroes from Earth and a number of warriors from Asgard were fighting against some of Thanos's opponents. Those who could come here to participate in the battle were all very powerful warriors, so it was relatively easy for them to fight against Thanos's middle-level warriors. The only problem was the number of enemies. Although there were not countless enemies like on the lower level, each person still had to fight dozens of people, which slowed down their progress slightly.

“When I came here last time, there seemed to be five more powerful figures on the upper level. If we don’t hurry, Earth might really be destroyed by these people,” Loki said to Tony beside him while using magic to eliminate his enemies.

"You mean we have to pick five people to fight against the five above?" Thor asked.

“That’s right, time is running out. We have to split up. As for Thanos, Adam will have to deal with him personally. If he can hold out until we take care of these people, maybe we can go and help. If not, we’d better run away.” Loki shrugged and said, “I don’t want to die here.”

“Okay, I think Loki is right,” Thor called out to Iron Man on the other side. “What do you think, Tony?”
