Ego's Death

"I can't hold on any longer!"

One hundred... cough cough, an hour passed quickly, and the Teletubbies' mental energy had reached its limit.

Okay~

Lin Xu pulled Star-Lord's soul back into his body.

Are you ready?

"It should... be okay, right?"

"That's good. You just need to stall for another hour."

I'll try my best...

Lin Xu nodded. Ego now only had half of his divine power left, and his spirit was weakened by the interference of the Mantis. Even if he broke free, he would be in a weakened state.

Furthermore, his divine power will gradually diminish, and Star-Lord will be able to hold him off.

What? You're asking what the main character is doing?

This is because they were scared by what the Ancient One said. Although they can use their divine power, it wouldn't be good if a few more Celestials suddenly appeared.

Lin Xu approached Ego, who was being controlled by the Mantis, and cast the "Gaze of Shuma-Gorath" into Ego's eyes.

"Let go."

As Mantis released his grip, Ego opened his bloodshot eyes and stared intently at Star-Lord, completely ignoring Lin Xu and Mantis standing to the side.

"Those who steal divine power deserve to die!"

Corrupted by the Gaze of Shuma-Gorath, Ego now finds himself in the Earth's core, and Star-Lord is the one who stole his divine power.

Immediately, countless earth elements began to condense, enveloping his entire body and transforming into a stone golem tens of meters tall, which charged towards Star-Lord.

As expected, Star-Lord, in the same way, created... a yellow jelly bean...

The battle between the Stone Man Pac-Man has officially begun.

Initially, Ego was able to take advantage of home ground and superior strength to gain the upper hand.

But as time went by, his divine power gradually diminished, and Star-Lord's familiarity with the power meant it was no longer limited to Pac-Man.

A big-nosed guy wearing a red hat and overalls, a tan tank— Star-Lord has reimagined all the popular games from his era.

Finally, the mental pollution dissipated, and Ego regained consciousness, but it was too late.

His life's worth of divine power had been drained by the Ancient One. Star-Lord, who also couldn't sense any divine power, fell from the sky and was caught in Drax's arms.

Ego's voice, gradually fading into nothingness, was filled with resentment. "Peter, I am your father! How dare you team up with an outsider against me!"

"No, Ego, you are not fit to be a father, nor a husband."

As Ego's clones dissipated, a tremor followed, and Ego the Living Planet began to collapse.

The Ancient One's voice rang out. "A Celestials are watching. If Ego died of natural causes or was killed by someone else, it's fine, but your Sub-Dimension Odinforce can't be hidden from them. Retreat now!"

Without a second thought, upon hearing this, Lin Xu quickly opened a super-distance portal to Herbert Star and stepped across it first.

"Run! The planet is collapsing!"

Gamora carried the somewhat weakened Mantis, while Drax, holding Star-Lord, quickly followed.

As soon as he stepped through the teleportation portal, Lin Xu fell silent. He had arrived in such a hurry, and several hours had passed, so it was already dark on Herbert Star. He hadn't noticed what was happening here.

Yondu, leading a bunch of oddballs, surrounded Groot, the Rocket Groot.

The closest person to him was "Taserface" from the movie "Treason," and the sight of that person's head full of scalps disgusted him.

Upon seeing Lin Xu appear, Rocket flashed behind Lin Xu.

"Ha, my friend's back! You're in trouble! Yondu made your men lay down their weapons and surrender!"

"Ai~ Anmu~ Groot ~"

What did he say?

"Uh... he meant the same thing as me." Rocket turned to Groot and whispered a reprimand, "No more swearing!"

Yondu ignored Lin Xu and Rocket, turning his gaze to Star-Lord, who was being held by Drax, his eyes filled with worry, but his tone remained sharp.

"Hey, isn't this the famous Star-Lord? What's gotten into you? You look so disheveled!"

"Yondu, thank you!"

"No... huh?" Yondu rubbed his ears. In over twenty years, this was only the second time he had heard the word "thank you" from Peter. The last time was when Peter gave him the Element Gun when he came of age.

"Thank you for not handing me over to him, even though you just wanted me to help you steal things... or find a chance to eat me."

"You saw him?"

"Yes, he killed my mother, so he's dead!"

"... Ravagers never eat people, they were just teasing you!"

Are you kidding me?

Clark, seeing this harmonious scene, immediately became displeased. (The one where Yondu's Yaka Arrow is inherited in Guardians of the Galaxy. 3)

"Captain, we promised that woman we'd hand Quill over to her; he stole their batteries..."

"I suddenly changed my mind."

"You're always like this, it's so heartbreaking for him!"

"I've been too soft-hearted with you all. I'm the captain!"

As he spoke, Yondu lifted his coat, revealing the Yaka Arrow at his waist.

Bang~

Just as tensions were rising, a gunshot rang out, and the man with the scalp covered in scabies, slapped his Taserface, suddenly collapsed to the ground.

Nebula emerged from the shadows and blew on the muzzle of her gun with an air of nonchalance.

"He tried to attack, so I killed him!"

Lin Xu watched this scene with slight surprise. If he remembered correctly, Nebula had ambushed Yondu in the movie.

Nebula: I'm just stubborn, not stupid!

Yondu seeing this, Yondu smirked, put down his clothes, and approached Lin Xu.

"Haha, Peter, aren't you going to introduce me to this new friend?"

Earth~

Adrian drove his pickup truck to the Avengers Compound.

Although he had been unilaterally accepted by Tony a few months ago, this was his first time in this place.

He had just parked his car when he saw two people arguing at the entrance. One of them Tony Stark, Iron Man, whom he had met a few times at the company and seen many times on the news.

As for the other person, he appeared to be a minor.

"Mr. Stark, why?"

"There's no reason why, just follow my instructions."

"I also want to participate in the battle."

"Listen, Peter, superheroes don't necessarily have to fight to the death. That's not heroism, that's thugs!"

"You're very agile; you can move freely between skyscrapers and climb walls. If the battlefield is in the city, people's hope will be in you! You can lead them to safety, Peter, remember that! A true hero is one who brings hope to others."

"... Is there any hope?"

"That's right, the search and rescue work will be in your hands. Oh, and I've also found you a helper."

Who?

Tony turned to look at Adrian, who was walking towards them, and his tone immediately lightened. "Oh, he's here, the Dark Knight of New York, Male Hawkman!"

"I only did what I could; I don't deserve the title of Dark Knight. Hello, it seems we'll be partners for now."

"Hello, Anmu Failure-Man."

"Adrian Toomes."

"Oh, do you want my real name? Peter Parker."
