What's wrong with Superman's son wanting to be Superman?

I saw.

Just then, the sky suddenly darkened.

A huge shadow loomed over them.

The roar of the engine shook the ground. The enormous silver flying saucer slowly landed on the sand dune, and the dust kicked up when the hatch opened made Steve cough.

The wind whipped up by the engines, stirring up fine sand that swirled low in the air. Then, from the shadows of the spaceship's hatch, emerged a giant, his entire body a deep purple. He was as tall as a mountain, his skin like metal, gleaming with a deep purple sheen. His eyes, like burning stars, radiated boundless majesty and tranquility.

"Welcome to Titan, humans of Earth."

The purple giant spoke softly, exuding an incredibly terrifying aura. Just by standing there, the entire planet's gravitational field seemed to bend and submit to him.

A deep and authoritative voice echoed in the air.

He is—the ruler of the universe, Thanos.

Chapter 161 Thanos's Expedition! System Mutation!

Many people may not be familiar with the name Thanos.

However, as long as the purple sweet potato spirit or Thanos is mentioned, most people who have heard of American comics will know that Ian immediately had the corresponding information in his mind.

Thanos.

A cosmic overlord born on Titan.

He was different from others from a young age—possessing purple skin and an extraordinary physique, but was also ostracized by his own kind because of his unusual appearance and thoughts. This character's most famous act was using the Infinity Gauntlet to gather the six Infinity Stones, snapping his fingers to wipe out half of all life in the universe.

Many people say he's a simp, obsessed with death, but Ian thinks the word "simp" is too high for Thanos; he's a more fanatical kind of simp than a simp.

"I didn't expect this to be Titan. Do you want to participate in our electronic salvation ceremony?" Ian's reaction was the opposite of Thor's, who was already on high alert and extremely vigilant.

He warmly invited Thanos to attend the memorial service. Without the Infinity Gauntlet, Thanos was merely a quasi-Celestial Father, while Ian was now the Ultra Celestial Father, possessing the unparalleled ability to trade one for one among the Celestial Fathers.

"The demise of electronic life is not something to mourn, but I agree that you may bury it on our land." Thanos looked at the elaborately staged funeral procession.

His voice was gentle, without any hint of cruelty.

"Thank you."

Ian gave Thanos a very polite smile.

"No need to thank me. After all, compared to most stubborn races, I quite like the nature of you Earthlings." Thanos's deep voice echoed through the forest.

He slowly raised his hand in an inviting gesture, a hint of anticipation even appearing on his face. "Would you like to visit our planet?"

Titan is very large.

It's also very beautiful.

It is a civilization established by the descendants of the Eternals, and every individual is an extraordinary life form, just like the magical creatures that live here, which are like "monsters".

Ian was interested in the visit and wanted to get some Titan chips.

however.

"No, no! We have other matters to attend to, Your Majesty. Thank you for the audience!" Thor's expression changed drastically, but he waved his hand to refuse before Ian could react.

He seemed terrified of Thanos, and his words revealed Thanos's current status and position.

"Hey! Do you even know how to do diplomacy?! I'm your boss, it's my job to give all the opinions!" Ian poked Thor's beer belly with his fist in dissatisfaction.

"..."

Thor opened his mouth, but dared not say anything because Thanos was still there.

"Who is this big guy?"

"It seems even Thor is afraid of him?"

Gwen and Captain America exchanged a glance and whispered to each other. Thanos's gaze swept over them, and he introduced himself with a slight smile, saying, "As the Crown Prince of Asgard said."

"I am a king—the King of the Titans." His voice was calm and majestic, as if he were proclaiming some kind of cosmic truth: "My power extends throughout the entire universe, benefiting countless civilizations in the vast starry sky. I am one of the most powerful forces in the universe, and you should also call me His Majesty Thanos."

This cosmic overlord seems quite vain.

"Is that beneficial?"

Thor muttered something under his breath, but dared not let Thanos hear. Gwen and Captain America were intimidated by the identity and dared not make a move. Only Ian blinked, still looking very interested.

"If we visit Titan, will we get a lavish visitor gift?" Ian knew he should make an analogy at this point, so he gave a perfectly apt example.

"When I went to buy a car, the dealership not only gave me small gifts, but also treated me to a meal." Yes, the gluttonous Ian just wanted to try the food from Titan.

Thanos was silent for a second.

"The Titans have always been known for their hospitality." He nodded slowly, his tone still gentle, and pointed to the wreckage of the crashed spaceship in the distance as he spoke: "I see that your spaceship has crashed. As a gift, I will present you with a new spaceship to help you return home."

have to say.

They'll give you a car as soon as we meet.

Ian is very familiar with this tactic.

The difference between "overlord" and "CEO" is indeed just one word.

"Great, great! You must be a good person to send us a spaceship!" Captain America's eyes lit up when he heard about the "new spaceship," and he agreed even before Ian.

"Damn it! Shut up!"

Thor is getting anxious.

But his one vote against was clearly no match for two votes in favor.

"I have no comment," Gwen rolled her eyes and withdrew. Seeing that Thanos had already turned around and was heading towards the UFO with Ian and Captain America, Thor had no choice but to bite the bullet and follow.

Gwen leaned closer quietly and asked in a low voice.

"Is that guy... scary?"

She could clearly see the deep-seated fear in Thor.

Thor's expression turned grave, and he lowered his voice as well, "Believe me, he is a being that strikes fear into the hearts of countless civilizations, and the Titan Legion is more terrifying than you can imagine."

The Crown Prince of Asgard spoke with unprecedented seriousness.

Gwen wanted to ask more questions.

But Ian was already waving and urging them on at the door of the UFO cabin.

"Hurry up! The Titan luxury sightseeing tour is about to depart!" Only a fool would refuse a free tour; he was sure he could hang out with Thanos from the new world.

"Ian! You'll regret this! You have no idea who you're trying to contact!" With no other choice, Thor could only grip his hammer tightly and board Thanos's flying saucer with Gwen.

The flying saucer slowly ascended into the air.

He led the group through purple clouds into the main city region of Titan, a magnificent metal metropolis. From the air, the city appeared grand and solemn.

The architectural style is also ancient and mysterious.

It resembled some kind of hybrid civilization that blended technology and magic. On the streets, the descendants of the Eternals of Titan walked in an orderly fashion, their skin displaying varying shades of color.

He is physically robust.

His eyes were full of hope for life.

City center.

Unknown characters shimmered on the towering, colossal structure, and the air was filled with the subtle fragrance of some kind of herb. Thanos himself acted as the guide, leading Ian and his followers on a tour of the Titans' "cultural wonders."

"This is our cultural center. The people of Titan love art, philosophy, and the truth of the universe."

"That's our energy core, providing stable power for the entire planet."

"This is our education center, where all our people can learn the mysteries of the universe." Thanos seemed to really enjoy introducing his civilization to others.

Is that a military factory?

Ian pointed to a steaming factory area in the distance, his tone curious.

“No, that’s not a military factory. Titan is a planet that develops life sciences and technology, so it has almost no factories for the production and manufacturing of steel weapons.” Thanos also looked over.

He shook his head slightly, his tone solemn.

"That is the radiance of life."

He's a bit too pedantic when it comes to word choice.

Ian: "...?"

Captain America: "...?"

Gwen: "...?"

Even Ian couldn't decipher the meaning, which shows how poetic and vague the description was. Only Thor's expression upon hearing this was as ugly as if he had eaten a can of spoiled herring.

I don't know what they've been through.

"In fact, I also want to spread them to Earth." Thanos seemed quite pleased with their confusion, and finally, as if revealing his true intentions, he spoke in a serious tone.

"Okay, okay~"

Ian didn't intend to be a traitor; he simply wanted to use Thanos to hone the superheroes on Earth—to heal the superheroes, a sufficiently large crisis needed to be created.

As for the potential impact and losses, that's not a big problem. Ian plans to bring Thanos to Tokyo, where the damage to Earth can be minimized.

Even if there are occasional spreads.

The Marvel Universe has always had its own Dragon Ball.

The original Infinity Stones consisted of six, but with the elusive Stone of Wisdom added, there are truly seven. Compared to Ian's petty schemes, Thor's reaction was far more intense.

"Absolutely not! Earth is protected by Asgard! You cannot set foot on Earth!" Thor instantly bristled, reacting even more violently than the three Earthlings.

Upon hearing this, Thanos calmly looked at him, his tone carrying a hint of disdain: "Odin rejected me, but that doesn't mean he can reject me on behalf of Earth. Earthlings have their own free will and the right to choose."

Unexpectedly, Thanos also understands freedom and democracy; he truly seems to be the beacon of Titan. Just as Thor's face turned red, ready to argue with Thanos...

Gwen was completely confused. Finally, she couldn't help but raise her hand: "Can someone explain to me what 'spreading glory' means? Does it mean invading Earth?"

This is the most reasonable explanation Gwen thinks.

only.

Thanos shook his head.
