Chapter 381 Thor's Unexpected Visit
Amidst the commotion, the Nova Corps finally took over the prison.
Before the Rockets had even finished losing their bets, the prison guards and inmates, who had been fighting side by side because of the Kree invasion, spontaneously formed two lines again.
Just as Peter was grinning foolishly, thinking he wouldn't have to pay his gambling debts, Rocket secretly elbowed him again: "You big idiot, why didn't you remind me to run away in the chaos!"
Star-Lord retorted inwardly, "I'm not the kind of person who's jumping around setting up gambling dens!"
That's why they say gambling is harmful; the two of them were so focused on harvesting vegetables that they forgot all about escaping!
Fortunately, Queen Adora of the Nova Empire was a reasonable person. After understanding the whole story, perhaps out of respect for Superman or Captain Marvel, she didn't make things too difficult for Star-Lord and Rocket's group: "Given that you defended the prison during the Kree invasion and prevented more families from being torn apart, I can grant you a pardon, as can the other prisoners in the prison who fought against the Kree."
"Yay!"
The rocket that walked out of prison for the first time in its life through a pardon rather than an escape let out a cheer.
Then he saw the prison guards, who had previously maintained a clear separation from him, all crowding around him again: "Give me my money back!"
"Oh no!" Upon hearing those two words, Rocket's previously perked-up ears immediately drooped again: "If you ask me, I'd rather continue serving time in jail!"
He'd rather go to jail now to avoid paying off his gambling debts; he can always escape from prison later!
"I am Groot!"
"What did you say?!" Groot said something that immediately enraged Rocket: "I'm not a sore loser! It was that petty Superman who tricked me!"
"I am Groot!"
"Of course you don't care, it's not your money!"
Ignoring the Rocket Girls' noisy little group, Nova Supreme Queen Adora greeted Captain Marvel: "Carol, thank you for your help."
Captain Marvel is a superhero who has been active in the border region between the Nova, Kree, and Skrull empires for many years, and all three sides know of her existence.
Nova Supreme was even somewhat acquainted with her; she just hadn't expected Captain Marvel, who rarely interfered in interstellar politics, to appear in such a godforsaken place of exile.
"Identity confirmed." At the same time, another reconnaissance crew that had entered the Dark Star battleship brought good news: "Ronan is dead! He was cut into three pieces by two high-energy rays! My God, you should really come and see, the cut surfaces are perfectly clean, and they're all burnt—"
"Hold on," even over the wireless connection, Nova Supreme could sense the investigator's delight: "There's no need to go into such detail!"
She wouldn't blame him, though. As an extremist who was always looking for opportunities to slaughter the people of the Nova Empire and dreaming of removing Xandar from the star map, the more miserable Ronan's death was, the happier the Kree would be.
And she even helped kill Ronan?
Queen Alora was quite surprised to hear about this, saying, "This isn't like you."
"Of course it wasn't me!"
Captain Marvel wouldn't take on such a thing herself; her actions in the interstellar space are more focused on combating natural disasters and man-made calamities caused by madmen. Although Ronan the Accuser is insane, compared to some other humanoid beings, he is still considered rational.
"The one who helped you kill and destroy the Kree warships, and who killed Ronan the Accuser, was—"
Carol pointed to her side, only to find it empty: "Where is everyone??"
While most people's attention was focused on Captain Marvel, Joey slipped into the bathroom, changed his clothes, put on glasses, and with an unremarkable new face, swaggered away from the prison's sensor system and left the space station.
In less than a day, the Power Gem was in hand; it was time to leave and move on to the next step.
He used the internal communicator he had borrowed from the Spider Legion when he was originally planning to kill the Weaver Master to call the person on the other end of the connection: "Miguel? Transfer me to the bats—"
Before he could finish speaking, Joey heard a loud bang coming from Spider-Man 2099's end and immediately asked, "What happened on your end?!"
As he spoke, there was another loud "thump!" Joey clearly heard the sound of rock and soil cracking and the earth trembling: "Miguel? What's wrong with Earth again?"
He's only been gone for less than a day, what happened now?!
"No, Superman, Earth is fine!"
Just as Joey was preparing to speed back to Earth at superluminal speed, Spider-Man 2099 grunted, dodging a slap from a claw larger than himself, and finally caught his breath: "I'm just—a little busy!"
Although Spider-Man 2099 is also Spider-Man, he doesn't have spider sense. Just now, while answering a phone call, he was almost crushed into mincemeat by the monster in front of him!
Words are no match for visuals. Spider-Man 2099 flipped the projector, showing Joey exactly what had caused such a commotion—
At this moment, Spider-Man and his team in 2099 are fighting a colossal, one-eyed monster tens of meters tall: "We're on an alien planet now!"
After catching his breath, Spider-Man 2099 lit up his ring and materialized a giant iron fist several meters long, swinging it wide to smash into the giant monster's eye.
The emerald-colored energy fist shattered, but the opponent remained stable. The monster's eyeball, which occupied its entire face and half of its torso and was even larger than the fist that had just materialized, was bloodshot with rage. A blood-stained energy ray swept towards Spider-Man 2099.
"Danger!" Parker leaped forward, using his webs to pull Spider-Man 2099 out of the beam's range.
Parker Zhang thinks that it might be because his body is still possessed by the original Spider-Man, so he still can't gain the Green Lantern Ring's approval. If he wants to leave this place, he still has to rely on Spider-Man 2099 who can control the Green Lantern Ring.
Even after Spider-Man and Parker were teleported back to Earth by the Weaver, they weren't idle. They were still captured by Batman and forced to do manual labor together in search of Vormir.
Parker thought being grouped with Spider-Man 2099, whom he disliked, was unlucky enough, but things couldn't get any worse—
They discovered a planet with an unusual energy reading. After carefully exploring along the direction of the energy source, they unearthed a giant, one-eyed creature tens of meters tall!
"We have to retreat! Unless what we're looking for isn't the Soul Stone, but something like the Size Stone!"
He believed this couldn't possibly be Vormir, the planet Batman mentioned where the Soul Stone was hidden, unless the Soul Stone's power was simply to enlarge things.
Seeing the giant, one-eyed monster relentlessly chasing after Zhang Parker and Miguel, Joey grew anxious: "Where are you? I'm coming to help—"
With a deafening roar, a thunderous sound suddenly resounded in the originally vacuum-like universe.
Accompanying the thunder was a bolt of lightning that appeared out of nowhere, and a deafening divine voice: "I am Thor Odinson, the god of thunder."
A rainbow appeared in the universe, and then Mjolnir arrived, declaring, "Collecting the Infinity Stones is forbidden in this universe!"
The lightning struck Joey, who was flying in space, turning his ordinary clothes into a pile of charred remains, revealing the "S-shaped insignia" of his uniform underneath.
"Wait a minute! You are—"
The person flying through the lightning was somewhat taken aback until Joey took off the glasses that Tony had specially remade with vibranium because they had been damaged before.
"who I am?"
Enraged, Joey leaped forward, his left hand precisely gripping the handle of Mjolnir's hammer amidst the raging lightning, pulling it and the useless, troublesome Thor attached to it out. What awaited him was only Joey's other right fist: "He's the one who's about to beat you up!"
