Today I Finally Know Who I Am (Part 1)

"Marvel's Magnetic Field Rotation"

Inside the underwater base.

Upon learning that Thanos was about to invade Earth, they all came to this underwater base without prior arrangement. After dismissing all staff members other than those belonging to SHOCKER, they officially began their plan.

However, there is one person here who does not belong to SHOCKER or any other organization— Christiana, a waitress at Doctor Death's bar.

After graduation, the waitress couldn't find a suitable job; the openings offered less than what she could earn working odd jobs at the bar. However, given her excellent performance in handling the bar's finances, Doctor Death offered her a high-paying job.

Once inside the underwater base, Christiana was like someone in an aquarium, brimming with curiosity about everything around her and exploring the place.

The Great Leader and Wei Xiuming gazed at the enormous mechanical life form, chatting with deep emotion.

"Colossal creatures move slowly. Aside from factors like air resistance, their sheer size also contributes to the slow transmission of nerve signals. This is why mythical creatures like dragons possess multiple brains distributed throughout their bodies, which is why they are so difficult to kill."

Wei Xiuming said, "Therefore, I used the Worms and the armor developed against the Worms as samples to gradually improve the application of faster-than-light particles and use them as a medium for transmitting nerve signals."

"While its biological body evolved from an entire ecosystem, its core utilizes the same technology as AMAZON cell —an experiment concerning the fusion of my life with current cosmic life forms."

"Its method of operation employed a dual-driver, using Bruce Banner and the Hulk as experimental subjects, to reconcile their differing consciousnesses, implanting my personality into its blank will."

The Great Leader responded to Wei Xiuming's words, adding, "However, as a weapon comparable to a god, the primary driving force that brings it to life and allows it to manifest its divine power requires sufficient sacrifices."

"To this end, I have prepared twenty-six different superpowers and sold the so-called Gaia Memory to potential users whose abilities have not yet been activated. During their use, the Gaia Memory will extract their superpowers from their bodies and take them away."

"And then there's the coin, which embodies the very essence of human desire; it draws upon desire and is filled with terrifying power."

Now, the time has come.

Twenty-six superpowers require a vessel for fusion, and Christiana is the target chosen by Doctor Death.

As soon as Ebony Maw and Cull Obsidian's spaceship landed above the underwater base, the sea surface seemed to boil, constantly churning and bubbling, with large amounts of bubbles surging from the seabed.

Immediately afterwards, a clenched fist emerged from the sea, as if breaking through some barrier. Then its entire body emerged and floated on the surface of the sea. During this process, the sea surface seemed to be a virtual projection, completely unaffected by the object, and the waves continued as before.

It was a giant, shrouded in a layer of light and mist, making it impossible to see its true form. One could only sense its power and mystery, as well as a strange sense of destruction.

On the Q-type spacecraft, the probe issued an alarm. The spatial distortion at the location where the giant appeared had reached a terrifying level, equivalent to shrinking a star to a diameter of a few hundred meters, caused by the spatial distortion caused by a high-density, high-quality object.

The reason the giant didn't tear the Earth apart was simply because it placed itself in a sub-dimensional space; what appeared in the current world were merely light and shadow.

This ability was not innate to the giants themselves, but rather a result of the use of an artifact— the Tesseract, which is the Space Stone they were looking for.

"Use space jump, let's escape!"

The Black Order were infamous throughout the star system, but they were so vulnerable in the face of celestial bodies. Even with the activation of the space jump device, they were doomed the moment they saw the giant robot.

Under the powerful gravity, space began to warp. Without any transmission process, it instantly affected the Q-type spaceship that Cull Obsidian and Ebony Maw were riding. The spaceship, made of high-strength alloy, was instantly torn into irregular shapes, like playdough in a child's hands being kneaded at will.

That force acted for only a moment, tearing apart the energy shield and compressing the spaceship into a solid iron disc. Under extreme compression, the density of this lump of scrap metal increased several times.

This is an application of Universal Gravitation, one of the Four Fundamental Forces of the Universe. The armor and skeletal materials of the giant robot contain a certain amount of Gravitonium. Relying on this material that can interfere with gravity, Wei Xiuming turned the gravity generated by the robot into a weapon and shot down the spaceship.

The light and shadow that made up the giant robot disappeared. Wei Xiuming severed the connection between the sub-dimensional space where it was located and the current space. When he opened it again, the giant robot had already arrived in New York.

Meanwhile, the Earth's superheroes have been wiped out by Thanos. Neither the Avengers nor the cyborgs that Wei Xiuming created for Hydra are a match for Thanos. They can't even move Thanos. They are fighting against the illusion created by Thanos using the Reality Stone, despite their best efforts.

As for Captain Marvel, Carol Danvers, Nick Fury, sensing something was wrong, had already sent her a distress signal using his high-tech pager, but interstellar travel takes time, and she was still on her way.

Accuser Ronan could only rudimentarily manipulate the Power Stone, was confident that he could destroy Xandar on his own. How could Thanos, who possessed all four Infinity Stones and could Thanos them with ease, be defeated by a group of people who couldn't even destroy a continent? To use the Infinity Stones, one needs not only to be a strong person but also to have enough wisdom. Unfortunately, Thanos possessed both.

With the Power Stone, which grants control over the "force" and "energy" of the current universe, Thanos can create a powerful enough force field shield that the superheroes cannot even touch a hair on his head.

Moreover, Thanos never relaxed his intelligence gathering on Earth. First, there was the Supergiant during the Chitauri invasion. As a cosmic-level scout, the Supergiant not only planted the seeds that led to Ultron's emergence, but also thoroughly investigated Earth's intelligence, even reporting the peculiar organization Serpent S.H.I.E.L.D.., to Thanos.

There are also probes so small they are invisible to the human eye. Loki is the carrier of these probes. As he moves around Earth and Asgard, these probes spread silently, like a virus spreading across the globe along with traces of human activity.

"Boom!"

A colossal robot emerging from the subdimensional space stood atop the earth. A wisp of gravity deliberately released by Wei Xiuming churned the ground, sending debris and dust billowing through the air. The Great Leader stood with his arms crossed on the giant robot's shoulders, looking down at Thanos.

Thanos clenched his left fist, and the power of the Reality Stone transformed the dust and debris into some kind of alien creature. Birds with moth-like appearances scattered, and the obscured vision was restored.

"The Space Stone... It seems Cull Obsidian and Ebony Maw are in grave danger, but they've accomplished their mission, bringing the Infinity Stones before my eyes." Thanos stood up, removing his helmet from his double-edged sword; now he was truly serious.

"I've been waiting for you!"

A sinister voice echoed in Thanos's mind. It was a voice he had heard before, a voice of death, but now it held no allure for him; it was utterly unfamiliar.

Pfft!

An object resembling Cosmic Cube floated behind Thanos, a sharp blade Thanos his heart and also severing his left arm, where he wore the Infinity Gauntlet, to prevent him from using the Reality Stone to turn this scene into an illusion, and also to prevent Thanos from using the Time Stone to reverse time.

Looking down at the long blade protruding from his chest, Thanos spat out purple blood and said with difficulty, "Why?"

No one could answer his question.

The Cosmic Cube melted into liquid and flowed into Thanos's body through the wound on his back. The unimaginable energy acted on Mad Titan, reshaping his body into a certain form.

He was a man as beautiful as a woman, with a golden armor covering his long robe. Just standing there, he exuded an aura of unparalleled strength. His long, black hair was tied up on his head with a golden crown, which accentuated his handsome face and gave him a refined and elegant demeanor.

"This is the Infinite Flow Male Protagonist; I'd almost forgotten what he looked like."

Inside the giant robot, Wei Xiuming, who was controlling this terrifying weapon, asked the Great Leader on his shoulder through Doctor Death.

"It's him. In my timeline, he also appeared out of nowhere. I didn't expect him to have planned this so early, just like me."

The Great Leader said wistfully, "But things are different now. The two versions of myself from different timelines have joined forces, possessing double the wisdom and power. He is no longer my opponent."

The giant robot crouched low and threw a punch. Accelerated by faster-than-light particles, its enormous fist instantly traversed space and arrived in front of the Infinite Flow Male Protagonist, determined to smash him flat with a single blow.

This was a punch as heavy as a star.

The Great Leader placed his hands on the giant robot's shoulders, channeling the power of the Magnetic Field Rotation into it. "Ninety-nine hundred thousand bolts, Whale Slaying Hegemon Fist!"

The Infinite Flow Male Protagonist smiled, one corner of his mouth curling up like a checkmark.

"Heavenly Emperor Fist!"

The shockwave from the clash of pure force against force ripped the ground apart layer by layer, and scar-like cracks spread out along the point where the fists met.

The first punch ended in a draw.

Without needing to recover, their fists collided once more. The sheer destructive power unleashed by their combined strength was beyond description. Waves began to surge across the ocean, and the rolling waves formed a tsunami that crashed towards the land. However, it was shattered halfway by the aftershocks of their battle, transforming into more violent waves.

"Father!"

A magical portal, not used in Kamar-Taj, opened beside the Great Leader, and the Scarlet Witch, dressed in a red coat, stepped out. She greeted Doctor Death before looking at her feet with disbelief.

Doctor Doom, who had arrived with him, crouched down and touched the giant robot's armor plates, using scientific and magical techniques to analyze the robot's structure and technology. Even just scratching the surface of it was incredibly beneficial to him.

They are very safe here. Unless the Infinite Flow Male Protagonist can directly destroy the giant robot, his attacks will not be transmitted to the sub-dimensional space where they are.

The Infinite Flow Male Protagonist is merely a projection of a giant robot, just as Mephisto's true form resides deep within the Hell Dimension, while countless clones on Earth bewitch the world.

"Father!"

Quicksilver ran up from the ground carrying an arm thicker than his waist— Thanos' severed left arm. In the instant the shockwave erupted, Quicksilver had arrived on the battlefield, moved the surviving superheroes from Thanos's clutches to safety, and then found Thanos's left hand in the dust, bringing it to Doctor Death.

To ensure he wouldn't be affected, a layer of armor woven from Mind Stone energy was placed on his body, protecting him from harm.

This is why Quicksilver didn't act with Scarlet Witch. He left Latovinia first, went to a branch of SHOCKER, brought the Hell Ambassador was in charge of the Mind Stone to New York, and only after being given a buff did the operation officially begin.

Furthermore, thanks to Doctor Doom's tutelage, Quicksilver has an excellent grasp of timing. He seized Thanos's left hand the instant the Infinite Flow Male Protagonist was fully focused on fighting the giant robot. Otherwise, a single attack from Thanos's distraction would have been something that the Mind Stone Armor and Quicksilver himself could not have withstood.

The Great Leader ripped the Infinity Gauntlet off Thanos's severed limbs, crushed the Tesseract, extracted the Space Stone, and then took the Mind Stone from Hell Ambassador, embedding them into the Infinity Gauntlet.

Now, all Six Infinity Stones have been collected.

Placing the Infinity Gauntlet on his right hand, the Great Leader felt the power flowing within it and said, "Wanda, use your magic to infinitely amplify the probability of my wish coming true."

Chaos Magic is the manipulation of probability. The Great Leader saw Wanda in another timeline, at full power, capable of wiping out an entire universe. He achieved his goal by modifying an extremely slight probability. This is why the Great Leader had Doctor Death create Wanda. As for Quicksilver, he was just doing it incidentally.

With her hands forming a mudra, dark red magic flowed through Wanda's body. Regardless of the Great Leader's purpose, she would adjust the probability of his desired outcome to one hundred percent.

Sensing the consciousness of the Great Leader, the Six Infinity Stones began to activate, and six different colored energies began to erode the Great Leader's body. However, the Great Leader was strong enough to resist the erosion of this power.

"It is resisting me."

Wanda said with difficulty that she sensed a will within the Infinity Stones resisting her Chaos Magic, preventing her from manipulating probability, and urging the Great Leader to do whatever he wanted to do quickly.
