Forces Arrive at Counter-Earth!
The edge of the Milky Way.
Space torn apart.
The Plumbers Expeditionary Fleet, led by the captured Kree Empire flagship, leaped out of the Quantum Tunnel.
Ahead, counterattack against Counter-Earth.
The planet's surface is completely covered by thick metal armor plates. There are no oceans, no forests. Tens of thousands of planetary anti-aircraft turrets rise from the armored surface, locking onto the suddenly appearing fleet.
Flagship bridge.
Jiang Li looked at the red lock warning on the screen.
"All ships hover. Activate deflector shields." Jiang Li walked towards the airlock. "No need to fire. I'm going down."
The airlock pops open, causing a vacuum to backflow.
Jiang Li leaped into space.
Counter-Earth's surface.
"Enemy soldier has broken in! Open fire!" the Animen commander roared.
A barrage of cannon fire.
A dense network of red high-energy lasers, interwoven into a destructive barrage, enveloped Jiang Li's path as he plummeted.
Amidst the raging gunfire, Jiang Li's thoughts flashed.
Master Control.
Swish!
A slender alien with black and white stripes and plug-like tentacles on its head appeared.
[Feedback (Feedback)]!
Jiang Li neither dodged nor evaded, but spread his arms wide. Blue arcs of electricity shot out from the plugs at the tips of his ten fingers, precisely intercepting the incoming high-energy laser.
Sizzle!
Tens of thousands of anti-aircraft beams, enough to sink a star destroyer, slammed into Jiang Li.
There was no explosion.
The energy nodes on the Feedback's chest flickered wildly, devouring and compressing all the energy. Jiang Li's body, burdened with an excessive amount of energy, emitted a blinding white light.
"Here you go."
Jiang Li brought his hands together, aimed them at the planetary armor below, and pushed hard.
Boom----!!!
A blazing white lightning bolt, a hundred meters in diameter, blasted out with overwhelming force.
The lightning bolt pierced through the planetary shield that Counter-Earth, blasting a bottomless crater into the armored surface. The entire anti-aircraft array was instantly paralyzed and melted.
Jiang Li followed the opening and plunged into the atmosphere.
A flash of thought. Ultimate.
Swish!
A burst of white and green light erupted. Jiang Li transformed into a sphere encased in heavy silver armor and deadly metal spikes.
[Ultimate Cannonbolt]!
The heavily armored sphere spun rapidly in mid-air, igniting flames from friction with the air, transforming into a meteorite that crashed directly into the all-metal fortress at the center of the Counter-Earth.
Boom!
The fortress's superalloy dome was forcibly smashed through.
The metal sphere continued its momentum, smashing through more than a dozen layers of high-strength armored flooring. A piercing alarm blared throughout the entire fortress.
Deep underground. Gene dissection room.
The dome collapsed. Debris and metal plates rained down.
The High Evolutionary took a half step back and activated its energy shield.
Amidst the smoke and dust, the silver sphere ceased its rotation. A flash of green light appeared, Jiang Li transformed back into human form.
He stepped on the cracked alloy floor and brushed the dust off his trench coat.
On the restraint bed, Star-Lord Peter Quill stared wide-eyed at Jiang Li descending from the sky, shouting excitedly, "The Plumbers?! Jiang Li! Help! This freak wants to rip my spinal cord out!"
"I am Groot!" (Kill him!)
"Shut up, Quill. You owe me a favor."
Jiang Li up, his gaze passing over the Guardians of the Galaxy and locking onto the High Evolutionary ahead.
"You're the purple-skinned monster who secretly released the virus?"
The High Evolutionary showed no anger. Through the shield, his eyes beneath the mask were fixed on the Omnitrix on Jiang Li's left wrist.
"A perfect creation. It truly shielded my genetic virus." The voice of High Evolutionary was fervent. "You willingly delivered it to my operating table. Earthling, you are accelerating the evolution of the universe."
The High Evolutionary snapped its the Snap.
Click click click.
The alloy walls surrounding the dissection room slid open to both sides.
Hundreds of massive "Animen" guards, incorporating genes from various interstellar beasts, wielding heavy energy battle axes, surged into the room and surrounded Jiang Li.
"Take him down. Sever his left arm. Don't damage the watch," the High Evolutionary commanded.
Roar!
The Animen roared and pounced.
Jiang Li stood still and twisted his neck.
"Trying to steal my watch? With these genetically engineered monsters?"
Jiang Li raised his left hand.
"Skurd. Skin on."
The slimy creature clinging to the edge of the dial let out a shriek and instantly covered the entire core of the dial.
Swish!
In the green light, a colossal creature with four arms and red skin rose from the ground.
Immediately afterwards.
A layer of deep, light-devouring, jet-black bone armor rapidly grew from the Four Arms's body. Sharp black bone blades sprang out from its elbows and knees. The emblem on its chest transformed into a dark gold cross.
[Four Arms - Necro-Armor Form]!
(Four Arms + All-Black the Necrosword attribute that killed and devoured Knull)
Jiang Li a deep breath. He clenched his four Iron Fist, covered in Black Death Armor, simultaneously. Dark death energy swirled around his fists, and even the air seemed to be torn apart by this force.
"Come."
Jiang Li's voice boomed like thunder, stirring the shadows.
"Let me see if you have the backbone to back up your master's stubbornness."
Bang!
Jiang Li stomped on the ground, transforming into a dark, deathly afterimage, and crashed directly into the horde of beasts.
