The Infinity Stone was undoubtedly the most precious treasure of the multiverse. Every one of them had the power to change fate.
Saber had used the Tesseract to rescue Gotham from the spatial rift. He had also used the Stone of Reality to achieve the feat of slaying a god. He had also seen with his own eyes how Ancient One used the Stone of Time to reshape New York in an instant. Professor Charles, who held the Heart Stone, could shelter the entire North America by himself.
Even the chaotic and evil Dead Soul "Beast" that extended from the Soul Stone could quietly transform a weakling into one of the top evildoers on Earth. The divine power of these stones was astonishing, but every one of them … Yes, every one of them needed to go through a ritual before they could be used.
Saber called it "recognition".
It was just like how Ancient One had left the Stone of Time with Kamar-Taj and arranged for Strange to start coming into contact with the Stone of Time a long time ago. But after a full four years, Doctor Strange could still only use the power of the Stone of Time to a limited extent. Even when he broke through the limit in anger, he still couldn't get the full recognition of the Stone of Time. Otherwise, in the previous battle of Paradise Island, he could have easily killed Mephistos alone.
Ancient One's superb use of the Stone of Time allowed her to slaughter an entire pantheon alone. This was something that Doctor Strange couldn't catch up to. This was the recognition of the Stone of Time. It was very, very demanding.
Professor Charles' use of the Heart Stone was also at a rough stage. If he could fully use the power of the Heart Stone, they wouldn't have fought so tragically in the battle of Paradise Island. He could easily control the mind of a god and turn them into warriors on his side.
Unfortunately, he couldn't do it …
Luo Nan obtained the Power Stone, but he didn't even dare to enter the ritual. He could only embed it on his weapon. Was Luo Nan really stupid? No, he wasn't stupid. On the contrary, he was smarter than many people. He found a way to use the Stone of Time without recognition. But unfortunately, this trick caused him to suffer a miserable failure.
At least on the path to power, there was no room for tricks.
Saber held the Power Stone in his hand. His whole body was burned by the purple flame of power. Every second, he would experience the pain of his flesh and blood being burned dry. But in the next second, his flesh and blood would be reborn on his bones. He used this method to persevere in the extreme pain and make the craziest confrontation with the unruly Power Stone.
But there was no pain on his face, only a trace of calmness, as calm as the deep sea.
He looked at the flame burning in his palm, and he saw a lot in it.
He saw the Flatfish that died unwillingly in his arms, the girl whose name had been forgotten by many. Her death in the darkness of Gotham was so insignificant that the world did not even mourn her death. But Seiber remembered her, he had never forgotten her.
"Dorothy …"
He whispered the name, and his fingers gripped the Heart Stone even harder.
He also saw his old brothers who left him one by one in the ever-expanding The Devil Gang. Steve, Joseph, Cooper, and those who fought to the death in the war in Mexico because of his orders. In the end, they left their lives there.
How could he, a single person, make so many people willing to shed their blood for him?
Could he really deserve this kind of loyalty? Did he really have a clear conscience?
"My brothers …"
"Crack."
A low sound burst out from between his fingers where bones and flesh intersected.
The next moment, he saw Catherine, the little girl who had been following him since the first time they met. She had become the softest part of his heart from a little follower. There was also Kevin and Robin. There was also Plum, who was as cold as ice but as passionate as fire. There was also Selena, who had secretly developed feelings for him. There was also Felicity, who claimed to be single but was willing to support him silently behind his back. There was also Erica, who was always running away. There was also his father, Christian Teach, who had died a long time ago but had always lived in his heart.
These people had accepted him from the beginning and turned him from a wanderer who had no one to rely on into a person who had everything. These people were the only reason why he was willing to protect that damn world.
"My family …"
"Crack, crack."
As his fingers rubbed against each other, the moment the blood dripped, it was ignited by the fiercer purple flames. But as the blood flowed between his fingers, the cracking sound became clearer.
Saber didn't seem to feel the pain of his flesh melting and recovering at all. He continued to look at the flames.
In the end, he saw his most painful memory. The Ancient One turned into light spots in his arms and dissipated between heaven and earth. At the last moment of a great soul, he witnessed her. He witnessed her departure. She had never even lived for herself. That kind of regret, that kind of heaviness, that kind of pain as if his heart was being torn apart.
He saw his own helplessness in that image. His powerlessness, his weakness. That was the original sin! That was the original sin of being weak!
Compared to the pain of losing everything that he cherished the most, everything in front of him … Was this a test?
"No! This is nothing! "
He raised his right hand mixed with pale bones. The golden gauntlet melted repeatedly in the flames. His five fingers clenched again as if he wanted to pour all his strength into it.
"I will resurrect you … I will resurrect all of you …"
"A world without you … How can it be called perfect?!"
"Buzz"
The most instinctive heat flow in his body exploded like a nuclear bomb at this moment, rushing from Saber's heart to every inch of his body, every inch of his skin, every inch of his flesh and blood. The recovery speed of his body increased by more than ten times in an instant. For the first time, the destruction of the body by the Fire of Power was directly suppressed. The blue Killing God Flame was like the most fearless soldier on Saber's body, forcing back the rampant Fire of Power inch by inch.
In an incomparable manner, it was pressed back into the broken purple crystal in Saber's palm. At this moment, on the surface of New Star Fortress, the swallowing purple flames suddenly disappeared at this moment, and the figure standing in the giant lava pit fell.
"I won …"
There was no joy in Saber's eyes, no fluctuation, and he was calm as usual.
"I knew I would win, I knew I had to win … You are mine!"
"Krak Krak Krak!"
The untamed power stone still wanted to fight back. It jumped around in Seiber's hand, and the purple flame was still trying to burn his flesh. However, in the next moment, the golden gauntlet crushed the outer shell of the power stone. The clash between the two Wills had finally decided the winner.
"Buzz"
Saber spread his fingers, and the purple flames ignited in his palm. The Stone of Power, which had finally surrendered, spun in a circle in his hand, and then turned back into a purple oval gem, embedded in the back of Saber's golden gauntlet.
At this moment, the inferior imitation of the Infinity Gauntlet that was personally made by Borl of Asgard seemed to have come alive at this moment, as if a soul had been injected into a broken body without a soul. Saber put his right hand in front of his eyes and looked at it. He clenched his fist and looked up at the Cree warship that was rising above him. The several-kilometer-long body was like the craziest and most terrifying beast under the sky.
He curled his legs, and in the next moment, his body shot up into the sky like a purple cannonball. He clenched his right fist, and after a moment of charging in the air, he threw it out like a battering ram, slamming it hard on the surface of the several-kilometer-long warship.
"Boom!"
Purple energy rippled out from the surface of his fist, and at the moment when he hit the warship, his fist did not directly create a crater like before, but on the surface of the warship, an almost indiscernible crack appeared, and then spread out at a crazy speed. In just two short seconds, a shocking crack appeared from the center of the warship, and the crack wrapped around every inch of the warship at an unparalleled speed.
"Ka, ka ka ka!"
The moment Saber landed on the ground, in the sky behind him, the several-kilometer-long dark monster was like a broken porcelain, with thousands of cracks on its surface, and then it quietly collapsed. The metal fragments that fell from the sky were like a destructive storm, completely occupying the sky above New Star Fortress at this moment.
"Hmm … this feeling is not bad."
Saber stretched his shoulders. Behind him, except for the fragments that were shattered by the cannonballs of the New Star Army, everything along the way was completely destroyed. Destruction … had arrived.
On the other side, in the direction that Saber was heading, another deathmatch was nearing its end.
The completely demonized Drax waved the War Scepter wrapped in dark green flames with a single hand. He roared crazily and bombarded Luo Nan without any techniques. Every time his hammer smashed down, a clear crack would appear on the ground. And in front of this berserk beast, Luo Nan, who had thought that victory was within his grasp, could only retreat in a sorry state.
It wasn't that he didn't have the strength to fight against the demonized Destroyer, but this guy didn't intend to continue tangling with him.
Saber smashed a starship with a punch, a scene that was beyond his imagination, he saw it completely with his own eyes. That punch shattered all of his fantasies, all of his conquest, all of his destruction, everything was completely covered by that punch. He didn't want to think about anything now, he just wanted to escape from this crazy place. Like a frightened hamster, he just wanted to return to the Kerry Empire, to the capital planet, to his warm home.
He was like a beast that was completely defeated from body to soul, only wanting to return to his lair to lick his wounds.
Yes, he was scared!
This Conqueror of the Kerry Empire was scared to the extreme. He believed that there was no will in this star field that could resist the will of the Power Stone, but this was simply impossible. A scene that broke all of his rationality and logic happened right in front of his eyes.
At this moment, our Conqueror Luo Nan understood a truth: Some roots were born to trample on the earth, but there were even more roots that could only lie on the ground and look up at the sky.
He thought he was the former, but now he knew that he was just an unremarkable member of the latter.
"Get lost! Get lost! "
Luo Nan waved the warhammer in his hand madly, blocking Drax's attack. His steps were chaotic, his will was completely gone. He turned around and wanted to escape, but behind him, the Destroyer had already raised his War Scepter while laughing maniacally. Luo Nan left his back to his opponent. He had made a fatal mistake. A warrior without the will to fight was so weak.
"Bang!"
Luo Nan's body fell to the ground, blood spurting from the corner of his mouth. And in front of him, a pair of black boots was so dazzling. He struggled to raise his head and saw Saber's cold eyes.
"Spare … spare me!"
He lowered his head and begged for mercy in humiliation.
Saber took a step back, the warscythe pointed at his feet.
"If you cross this line, I will strangle you to death with my own hands. Now … go back and finish your battle. If you win … you still have a chance to live!"
"Huff … Huff …"
Luo Nan breathed in large mouthfuls of air. He crawled up and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. He clenched his warhammer … Now, it was time to fight for survival.
But when the War Scepter collided with his warhammer once more, the crystallization of the Kree Empire's strongest technology was crushed by the Destroyer's enormous strength. It shattered with a loud bang, metal fragments scattered everywhere. This scene made Luo Nan's eyes widen, but he soon understood why this happened.
His action of embedding the power stone had already destroyed the stability of the warhammer. And in the battle with Drax, facing a power that surpassed the limits of living creatures, the warhammer was already unable to bear the burden.
This final blow made Luo Nan lose all hope of fighting. He raised his head sluggishly and saw the War Scepter swung down abruptly. The dark green flames carried the radiance of death. But just as the warhammer was about to smash down on his head, Drax suddenly pulled it back. The warhammer brushed past Luo Nan's body and smashed into the ground.
"Boom!"
A large crater appeared under Luo Nan's feet. The Conqueror raised his head and looked at Drax the Destroyer. His face revealed an expression of indescribable humiliation. He shouted loudly:
"Why? Why didn't you kill me! Do you still want to continue humiliating me? Bastard! "
"Crack!"
The demonized Drax gasped for scorching hot air. He withdrew his scepter and put it back on his back. He looked down at the furious Luo Nan and shook his head:
"My weapon can only be used to challenge the strong … You, you are not!"
The next moment, he waved his claws. Five malevolent fiery claws tore through the air. In front of his eyes, the headless body powerlessly knelt on the ground. Blood splattered everywhere. He died lowly like a speck of dust.
"Bang!"
Drax half knelt in front of Saber. After coming into contact with the demonized state, he held Luo Nan's head with both hands. Luo Nan's wide open eyes still contained the last remnants of fear and despair.
"All of this glory belongs to you, Overlord!"
"From now on, I will become your sword …"
Tears flowed out from the Destroyer's eyes. Today, he had washed away all the humiliation he had shouldered. A new life path had opened. It was time to forget the past and enter a new life.
Saber did not reach out to take the head. He walked forward, passed Drax's body, and placed his hand on Drax's shoulder:
"That is your glory … This is the best burial item for your loved ones. The taste of revenge is always so wonderful. You don't need to forget the past. You don't need to seal yourself. You keep this painful memory. It will make you run wildly. It will make you stronger …"
Saber raised his head. In front of him, five Nova Battleships surrounded him from five directions. A loud and clear voice rang out from the horizon:
"Overlord Saber Hawk, Butcher, Slaughterer, Destroyer. All of the evil you have done in Shandar will never be forgotten by the Nova Corps!"
