When Nebula sold Thanos, it was still relatively subtle, but Gamora already came with its own customs clearance guide...
It feels like two vendors at a vegetable market competing to lower prices and attract customers without any bottom line.
One of them said: Thanos is fresh, hot, and costs ten yuan per catty and twenty yuan for three catties.
Another said: The Thanos I have here has the health and quarantine certification mark, and it costs one yuan per pound. If you want to buy it, hurry up.
The first one: My Thanos is free.
The second one: I match a Power Stone!
So, Li Congxin chose two copies.
But having said that, how failed is this guy Thanos?
Perhaps unwilling to be upstaged by Gamora, Nebula glared at her god-sister, and then said angrily, "What you said is certainly true, but the prerequisite for all this to happen is that Li Congxin can defeat, or even severely injure, Thanos. Do you think this is possible?"
"Although he owns two Infinity Stoness and is qualified to fight Thanos, he may not be able to exert the true power of these two gems. Once a fight begins, he will not die in the hands of Thanos. Then his two Infinity Stoness will also become Thanos's trophies."
"I don't think so!" Gamora argued with him without giving in this time. "Although Infinity Stones's power and counterattack ability are equally powerful, special artifacts can help users better control the power of gems and reduce the counterattack force. You know, Thanos has always planned this. Thanos can do it, why can't others?"
"Tch!" Nebula was extremely disdainful, pretending not to know that Li Congxin was the prince of Asgard, nor the relationship between Nidavellir and Asgard: "Unless he can find Nidavellir and ask the legendary short man to help, how can such an artifact be obtained like that?"
The two god-sisters, with each other's words, not only turned up the inside story of Thanos, but also began to help Li Congxin with suggestions and research on how to defeat Thanos. They worked hard and devoted themselves to it.
It wasn't until after listening to the two people talking that Li Congxin took Orb of Power out of the private space again, because the Collector had already used a special instrument to open it before, so there was no need to worry about how to open this delicate object.
Under the gaze of the people on the left and right, Li Congxin stretched out his right hand and grabbed Power Stone, which was glowing with purple light.
Seeing this situation, Gamora on the side quickly shouted, "Be careful!"
Li Congxin turned a deaf ear to this.
In fact, mortals cannot directly touch things like Infinity Stones with their bodies.
However, this line is only limited to mortals.
With the demigod bloodline, even Star-Lord, who has not yet awakened, can take it directly with his hands without dying; Ronan can also barely withstand the power of the gem. This shows that its backlash is constant, and whether it can be tolerated or not varies from person to person.
Li Congxin is now a strong Sub-Celestial, and there is no problem in catching Infinity Stones with bare hands, just like Thanos who is also Sub-Celestial can ignore this fatal backlash for the same reason.
Under everyone's stunned gaze, Li Congxin casually pinched Power Stone between his fingers, and then slowly moved it to the collar on the left side of Miraculous Hands, Spring Returns.
"Ding!"
With a soft sound, Power Stone directly attached itself to a circular groove on the left side of the collar.
It was only at this moment that Nebula, Gamora and others noticed that the collars on the left and right sides of Li Congxin's cloak actually had three circular grooves of the same size. Looking at the Power Stone that has been embedded in one of the grooves, is there any need to say more about the uses of the other five?
It turned out that Li Congxin had not only thought of what the two of them had been discussing for a long time, but had even finished casting it!
As Power Stone was embedded into Miraculous Hands, Spring Returns, a special energy swept through Li Congxin's body in an instant. The sudden energy stimulation made Li Congxin tremble, but this gem had some inexplicable connection with him.
This feeling was fleeting, but it was the gem that was strengthening and transforming his body in subtle ways. However, if he wanted to wear the gem on his body, he would also have to bear the backlash of the gem.
If you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight!
If you want to borrow the power of gems, you must bear the corresponding burden.
After figuring out the various keys, Li Congxin then took out Tesseract from his private space and began to call on Power Stone's power to exert it on Tesseract.
One second, two seconds...
As Li Congxin continued to increase strength, Tesseract remained as strong as before. It was not until a full five minutes later that when his strength was close to the limit that an undetectable crack appeared.
Thinking of how little effort Thanos spent in crushing Tesseract in the movie, Li Congxin had to admit that although everyone was the same as Sub-Celestial, there was still a big gap between him and Purple Sweet Potato!
Maintaining such power, the cracks on Tesseract became more and more. After another three minutes, it was finally overwhelmed and completely shattered.
Heaving a long sigh of relief, Li Congxin opened his palm and blew a breath towards the pile of scraps in his palm. Then he picked up the Space Stone hidden in it and gently embedded it in the first groove from bottom to top of the collar of his right cloak, just opposite to Power Stone.
Another tyrannical energy flowed through the body, and Li Congxin finally discovered another problem under the huge shock of the tiger's body.
The pressure Infinity Stones put on him actually increased by several figures!
During the first one, the pressure was not very obvious, at least for him. But the second gem set in the cloak already made him feel obvious pressure.
Fortunately, there are only two Infinity Stoness now, so this pressure will not affect his performance.
But if the third one is added... Li Congxin really doesn't have much confidence that it can be controlled perfectly.
Li Congxin even had such a vague feeling.
The reason why Thanos was disemboweled by Thor's flying ax in the end was probably because even he couldn't bear the huge pressure created after gathering Six Infinity Stones.
Infinity Stones, for users, is simply a double-edged sword!
Fortunately, for Li Congxin, there is no rush to get all Six Infinity Stones. In fact, to solve the problem of Asgard, only three Infinity Stones are enough.
As for the remaining three, each one is more evil than the last.
Time Stone is okay, but Mind Stone seems to have a side effect that can affect the user's mind. As for Soul Stone, the method of obtaining that thing Li Congxin is absolutely not willing to accept it.
After such a long time, the subordinates brought by Ronan had already discovered that their boss had been killed.
Although as followers of Ronan, the representative of the hawks Kree, they are also ruthless members of the hawks, but they do not dare to easily provoke a strong man who can easily kill Ronan.
Between avenging Ronan's death at all costs and keeping Qingshan alive, they decisively chose the latter, and then began a strategic escape without organization.
Seeing this situation, Li Congxin certainly would not just let them leave calmly. Immediately activate the magic of Any Door and go into space, and begin to intentionally intercept those warships that intend to escape. After some hard work, he finally successfully captured Ronan's giant main ship and 34 ordinary spaceships.
As for the remaining ones, he didn't want to completely fall out with Kree for this small profit, so he could only let the opponent's large army leave calmly.
In fact, even for those intercepted spacecraft, he did not kill innocent people indiscriminately, but packed all the prisoners into a small spacecraft and let them go back and forth wherever they wanted.
After doing this, another hour has passed.
When Li Congxin returned to the ground again, everyone from Nebula and Guardians of the Galaxy were there. It was not until they saw him appearing that Gamora took the initiative to speak. Said: "Mr. Clark, we have now seen that you have the power to protect Power Stone. It will be yours from now on. If there is nothing else, we have to leave."
Nodding, Li Congxin said casually, "Thank you for the information you provided before. If you need help in the future, you can come to me for help. As long as it is not particularly troublesome, I will try my best to help."
After saying that, he turned to Star-Lord and said, "Quill, if you have time, you might as well go back to the earth and have a look. The earth now is very different from what you were twenty-six years ago."
Star-Lord was shocked again when he heard this. "You actually know when I left the earth?"
Li Congxin smiled slightly, noncommittal.
After Guardians of the Galaxy and everyone left on Star-Lord's spaceship, Li Congxin turned back and said to Nebula, "As Thanos's adopted daughter, you don't believe that I can defeat him, do you? Congratulations, you have become my prisoner now, and I will let you witness with your own eyes how I surpassed that Purple Sweet Potato."
Seeing that Nebula looked like he had known this for a long time, Li Congxin then added, "But your mechanical body is really troublesome. God knows if it will suddenly cause me any trouble in the future. It seems that if I want you to stay in peace, I have to find a way to restore you to your previous flesh and blood body."
Nebula was stunned for a moment when he heard the words. After making sure that he heard correctly, he finally couldn't remain calm. His voice couldn't help but trembled a little. "Are you telling the truth?"
"I don't like to repeat the same thing a second time." Li Congxin Haki said confidently, "Besides, I only said that I would find a way, but I don't know whether it will work or not, although I already have a rough plan in mind."
Keeping Nebula, a mechanical girl who knew all the forces in the universe, by his side in the name of a prisoner, Li Congxin directly bought the room next to the Collector and began selling the Kree small battleship at a clearly marked price, and used the money sold to buy the ore that is a specialty of the Discord Land.
By doing this, he was undoubtedly provoking the Collector.
You must know that the Void's special ore business has always been monopolized by Elders of the Universe. Now Li Congxin actually bought the house opposite him to steal his business. This is something that ordinary people would never tolerate.
In fact, Li Congxin's main purpose in doing this was to make him unbearable.
I don't have a good impression on these Elders of the Universe and Li Congxin.
If he dares to come and cause trouble, Li Congxin will directly turn him into his eyes.
Each of these old monsters who have lived for countless thousands of years has a large amount of Cosmic Energy in their bodies, but they are not very good at fighting. Their basic function is to use these precious Cosmic Energy to extend their lives.
As long as the Collector can be successfully refined, it will definitely make Li Congxin's strength even further, even reaching the level of Thanos, and maybe even higher.
In addition, the Collector, as the number one Scoia'tael in the universe, owns a huge amount of money and treasures that can be described in astronomical figures. It is definitely a huge wealth that makes most powerful people in the universe jealous!
Li Congxin is naturally no exception.
It would be great if all of them could be inherited legitimately!
