Ronan Surrenders! Quantum Bands! Arrival at Hala!

Boom!

A deafening roar erupted.

The Dark Aster fired its most powerful destructive ray!

This spaceship, hailed as the super warship of the Kree Empire, weighs a million tons and is equipped with countless cutting-edge weapons.

It is in no way inferior to Thanos's Sanctuary II.

This is the only strike!

It directly tore apart the Cosmic Veil!

It caused a deafening explosion throughout the entire planet.

The earth shattered.

The air is distorted.

The heat was intense.

Countless mountains and rivers exploded, and lakes were churned with giant waves.

In the blink of an eye, the Guardians of the Galaxy and Chen Ji were completely engulfed!

A blinding light filled the space between heaven and earth.

Ronan's face was contorted with rage; he was convinced the enemy was dead!

But the next second...

His expression suddenly froze, his eyes widened in disbelief, and he was utterly shocked!

A spatial vortex appeared, and the Planet-Killer Ray converged into a torrent of energy, which began to slowly dissipate and was sucked into the palm of a giant hand!

Even!

The enemy even let out a burp.

This made his mind go blank, and he almost doubted whether he was hallucinating. He was completely unresponsive and stood there like a statue!

That's it?

"Don't you have any other skills?"

Chen Ji smiled.

God Among Men.

YYDS!

He can transform any form of energy and attack into his own magic!

After acquiring the Divine Entry, he could absorb energy with virtually no limit, and it wouldn't cause any burden on his body!

At this moment, his body is practically indestructible. Even if Nemesis, the Goddess of Vengeance, he could still go toe-to-toe with Nemesis even without the Ultimate Nullifier!

The harm that Ronan the Accuser, could inflict on him was negligible!

If it weren't for Ronan still having some use, he would have killed Ronan long ago!

"That's terrifying!"

"I thought I was going to die!"

"List!"

Why are you always able to create miracles?

The Guardians of the Galaxy were filled with lingering fear.

Faced with the massive destructive weapons launched by the Dark Aster, everyone barely dared to breathe and were prepared to sacrifice themselves.

However.

Chen Ji resolved the crisis with remarkable ease!

"Miracle?"

"This is nothing!"

Chen Ji smiled wryly.

In an instant, he appeared on the Dark Aster and stood in front of Ronan!

Ronan looked terrified.

Gripping the Universal Weapon tightly, he instinctively swung his warhammer, unleashing a massive ray of light and activating spatial jump mode, trying to escape this place as quickly as possible!

However.

Chen Ji simply waved his hand.

He sent Ronan flying, and even the Universal Weapon was easily captured by him.

Faced with overwhelming power, any resistance is futile!

"Ronan."

"My patience is limited."

"If you commit any heinous acts, don't blame me for killing you."

Chen Ji's eyes were stern.

Moment.

Ronan and the Kree soldiers dared not make any more rash moves, and everyone understood the implications.

Resistance can only lead to destruction!

Only through cooperation can we possibly escape disaster!

What do you want?

Ronan said in a deep voice.

As the Accuser of the Kree Empire, he naturally knew that there was no such thing as an unprovoked act.

The other party clearly has ulterior motives!

The key issue is...

What could such a powerful figure possibly want from him?

"Quantum Bands."

"Ronan."

"If you give me the Quantum Bands, I can make an exception for you, Solar Rekindling, and save the Kree Empire."

"Certainly."

"The Kree Empire will have only one master from now on, and that is me."

Chen Ji got straight to the point.

He knew the power of the Quantum Bands.

This is God-Tier Technology!

Its gold content is no less than that of Ten Rings.

Even more remarkably, it can open portals to different timelines; Maria Rambeau, for Spectrum, fell into an X-Men universe because of the Quantum Bands.

As for the other bracelet, it's on Earth, in the hands of the Ms. Marvel.

He missed the Ten Rings, but he absolutely cannot lose the Quantum Bands.

It seems that only the Quantum Bands can defeat Doctor Doom!

After all, Doctor Doom can travel through time and could be at any point in time. Doctor Doom wanted to escape, Chen Ji really had no way to stop him.

"You actually know about Quantum Bands...?"

"My subordinate Dar-Benn, has already gone to find the Quantum Bands."

"If I give you the Quantum Bands, will you keep your promise and Solar Rekindling for the Kree Empire?"

"Are you really that capable?"

Ronan was shocked and couldn't help but frown.

Solar Rekindling?

Are they really not joking?

Only a very few god-like beings can reverse the depletion and decay of a star!

Even Thanos and the High Evolutionary don't have that qualification!

"Since I dare to make a promise, I can definitely keep it."

"Ronan."

"If you save the Kree Empire, you will become a hero of the Kree Empire, with prestige surpassing that of the Supreme Intelligence, and the price you need to pay is simply to serve me."

"Keep an eye on the High Evolutionary for me."

"I heard that the High Evolutionary is also Kree?"

How much do you know about him?

Chen Ji's expression was playful.

High Evolutionary.

If they could create Adam Warlock, they could also create other life forms.

Even the golden statue residing on the High Evolutionary's World is a product of the High Evolutionary.

The essence of cosmic plunder is actually a competition between physical and non-physical resources.

Physical resources refer to common material things, wealth, technology, and so on.

Non-physical resources refer to knowledge, information, and wisdom.

The two are related and mutually reinforcing.

In the current universe, Thanos is the embodiment of power, and High Evolutionary is the embodiment of intelligence.

That's why the two of them came together and formed an unbreakable alliance.

With Thanos dead, the High Evolutionary might be panicking and could do anything, no doubt!

In fact, Chen Ji had always had a bad feeling about this, and the mere mention of the name "High Evolutionary" would send chills down his spine.

Because he was all too aware of the harm that being exceptionally intelligent could cause!

Even Tony Stark was able to create Ultron.

Moreover, what about the High Evolutionary that possesses the entire universe and all known intelligence?

"High Evolutionary..."

"I left Hala a long time ago."

"After studying at Titans, he established the Ogg Group and also helped Thanos form the Dark Order."

"The Leviathan Warship and the Outriders are almost entirely creations of the High Evolutionary, and the life forms he created are far more complex than that..."

"Because the Kree Empire's mission for him was to resurrect the Supreme Intelligence."

Ronan said in a deep voice.

He now fully understands his situation and his identity.

A prisoner.

Being alive is good enough; what more could you want?

As for the Quantum Bands, if it can bring about the revival of the Kree Empire, then it's a sure-fire deal, and he will indeed become a hero!

At the same time.

The communicator beeped.

It was none other than Dar-Benn.

"Take it."

Chen Ji granted permission.

Soon, Ronan answered the call, and a half-body projection appeared.

Dar-Benn and the Korath the Pursuer, on a desolate planet, reported the situation with expressions of shame on their faces.

"Lord Ronan"

"We have indeed discovered Quantum Bands."

"But on this planet, there is only one Quantum Bands."

"I'm afraid that's not enough to save Hala."

Dar-Benn, embarrassed.

These are her suggestions and plans.

Using Quantum Bands, they can open space tunnels, plunder resources from other planets, and revive Hala.

The Quantum Bands were supposed to be a pair, but now there's only one bracelet, making it impossible to implement the plan.

"Fine."

"Bring this bracelet."

"I have already sent you the coordinates."

Ronan nodded.

But it seemed that Chen Ji already knew the truth and didn't care at all.

This left him deeply puzzled.

Who exactly is this uninvited guest, whom we've never met before, and why does he seem to Omniscience?

"Ronan."

Don't try to guess what I'm thinking.

"If I say I can Solar Rekindling, then I will definitely be able to Solar Rekindling."

"Even if the plan fails, this Living Planet can still become the new Hala."

Chen Ji's words were resounding and powerful.

Ronan belatedly realized that the planet he was on was also uninhabited, large enough to accommodate a portion of the Kree Empire's population!

However, given the vast population of the Kree Empire and the limited size of Ego's Planet, relocating all of its people would be extremely difficult.

How many people does the Kree Empire have?

Chen Ji frowned.

He really hadn't expected this.

"30 billion."

Ronan replied.

The Kree Empire, as one of the three major interstellar empires, has long since reached the level of a Type 2.5 cosmic civilization.

Technological explosion, technological explosion, population explosion.

Before the sun dies out, calling them a Type 3 cosmic civilization would not be an exaggeration at all.

But as the sun declines and Hala becomes immobile, it can only passively wait to die!

Unless we can find a completely new home!

But almost all life-bearing planets in the universe are counted and have owners!

Just like this planet, it belongs to the Elders of the Universe!

Ego!

No interstellar empire dares to offend the Elders of the Universe, because once the Elders of the Universe gather, no one will escape unscathed.

Ronan was very puzzled as to why the Guardians of the Galaxy and Chen Ji had come to this planet, while Ego had not shown up!

"Because I have become the master of this planet."

Chen Ji laughed.

He overheard Ronan and Dar-Benn's conversation.

The Quantum Bands is on its way!

Chen Ji is also very much looking forward to Mystery of the Quantum Bands.

If he could crack the structure of the Quantum Bands, then he would be able to control the Quantum Realm. It's just unknown whether Conqueror Kang exists in the current universe.

The Quantum Realm.

It's also like a time-space transfer station.

Through Quantum Tunnel, one can travel to other dimensions; even Tony Stark has not deciphered the Quantum Realm.

So, to what extent can these Quantum Bands achieve?

A moment later.

A spatial rift opened.

Dar-Benn and the Korath the Pursuer, aboard the Kree ship, have arrived on Ego's Planet via interstellar jump.

Seeing the Dark Aster and the Guardians of the Galaxy getting along so well, the two of them felt a little bewildered.

Prior to this, the two already knew about Ronan's actions. Ronan had made a deal with the High Evolutionary: if they could capture Adam Warlock and 89P13, they could obtain Counter-Earth!

But why are they all so happy now?

There's absolutely no intention to start a war?

"Dar-Benn."

Where is the Quantum Bands?

Ronan opened his palm.

"Here."

Dar-Benn looked respectful.

She was also part of the Accuser Corps.

He always played for Ronan.

He immediately handed over a bracelet. This bracelet was smooth and shiny, made of a special material, with mysterious patterns on its surface, and exuded an ancient aura.

Dar-Benn and his Korath the Pursuer only knew the Mystery of the Quantum Bands through hearsay.

Even the rise of the Kree Empire is related to the Quantum Bands!

But these Quantum Bands disappeared into the past along with the first king of the Kree Empire.

As for the other bracelet, the Kree Empire had no idea where it was located.

"Good."

"With this bracelet, the revival of the Kree Empire is half accomplished."

Chen Ji waved his hand.

He then remotely retrieved the Quantum Bands.

Afterwards, he put the bracelet on properly and immediately felt a tremendous energy sweep over his entire body!

It seems to have connected to an unknown spacetime.

It provides a constant surge of magical energy!

This energy comes from the Quantum Realm!

Even more, Chen Ji could use this bracelet to travel to the Quantum Realm, to the legendary microscopic realm.

"Lord Ronan..."

"Who is he...?"

Dar-Benn and his Korath the Pursuer, felt a chill run down their spines.

How did you end up giving him the Quantum Bands?

Lord Ronan didn't seem to have any objections at all!

"I've reached a cooperation agreement with him."

Ronan's tone was somber.

This covered up the fact that he had failed.

Faced with the threat of force, he had no choice but to compromise!

If he dies here, then all will be lost, Hala will never be saved, and the Kree Empire will surely perish!

Let's go.

"Take me to Hala."

"I Solar Rekindling for you."

Chen Ji nodded.

He always keeps his promises.

And the divine power he possessed was more than enough to do that!

"List."

"Then let's part ways again. The Guardians of the Galaxy's next stop is the Grandmaster's Sakaar."

Thor looked reluctant to part.

But all good things must come to an end.

"All right."

"If the God of Fear awakens, I will summon you."

Chen Ji nodded.

Soon, the Milano took off again, and the Guardians of the Galaxy soared into space.

Peter Quill's divine power was insufficient to propel Ego's Planet to distant lands; this was the least effortful method.

After that, the Dark Aster and the Kree Fleet also withdrew from Ego's Planet, initiated interstellar jump mode, and after several maneuvers, returned to Hala.

The Large Magellanic Cloud.

Looking out through the porthole, one can see that the stars in this galaxy are gradually aging, their colors dimming, and they are on the verge of extinction.

The lack of light and radiation led to a precipitous collapse of the natural ecosystem of Hala.

After all, the Kree also need oxygen to survive.

Plants cannot perform photosynthesis, and therefore cannot provide oxygen.

Even more so, the Hala was shrouded in darkness, with almost no daylight for a long time, a landscape perpetually shrouded in night, and all kinds of large machines had ceased to function.

Our living standards are getting worse every day!

Countless residents are dying every day!
