A Splat on Thanos's Back of the Head
A pincer attack from both sides!
With Mjolnir in front and the Power Stone behind, plus the perfect opportunity created by the dimensional rift, Thanos had no way to avoid it and opened his arms to release Cosmic Rays.
Under the influence of the Mind Stone, Thanos unleashed a powerful golden shockwave that crushed the air and shattered it, causing mirror-like cracks to appear in the space around him.
Stegers's mental power was mostly suppressed by the Supreme Intelligence, and a small portion was mobilized to gather Photon Energy, making it impossible for him to directly confront Thanos's output. However, with Mjolnir in hand, energy was no longer a weakness.
Lightning flashed, and dazzling light appeared in the sky. The clouds, which were sometimes bright and sometimes dark, remained still under the hurricane. A huge amount of energy was drawn together and swayed down, creating an electromagnetic storm of lightning that poured into Mjolnir and gradually suppressed the golden light.
The current surged, spreading across the sky and the earth, and clusters of lightning struck down, forming a vast net of lightning that firmly enveloped the entire area.
Russell extracted energy from the Power Stone to withstand the golden Cosmic Rays. Having just obtained the Power Stone, he had not yet figured out the correct way to use it, so his efficiency was average. Even with both hands pressed down, he could only barely withstand Thanos's single-handed attack.
But the surge of lightning into his body stimulated his cells to become exceptionally active, his eyes were replaced by blue light, and arcs of Electric Arc surrounded his body. By extracting energy in a simple and brutal way, his efficiency increased dramatically, gradually reversing the decline and slowly suppressing the golden light.
Blue! Gold! Purple!
Under the dim sky, three colors spread out an endless curtain of light, swaying back and forth with the hurricane, each tremor causing ripples in space.
The air was turbulent and buzzing, with flashes of Electric Arc arcs occasionally appearing, like laser blades cutting back and forth, sharp and extremely hot.
Stegers possesses the power of Thor and has excellent resistance to lightning; the raging flashes of light cannot harm him.
Russell has Lightning Rod- like constitution; lightning entering his body is like coming home—it can come and go as it pleases... but leaving isn't so easy; it requires Russell's permission.
However, he is not an elemental being, nor does he possess Mjolnir to contain infinite lightning energy. The amount of lightning he can store at one time is limited, so he must release it continuously.
The target of this release is Thanos!
"He~~~ tui!!"
Russell spat out a mouthful of blue saliva, and the high-temperature plasma splattered onto Thanos's cheek like a plasma cannon, making him shudder.
Although the purple skin was wrinkled, its defensive capabilities were off the charts. His shiver was not due to the high temperature or the paralysis caused by the lightning, but rather because he was disgusted.
Thanos felt insulted. He respected Russell as a worthy opponent, but Russell actually spat on him!
When a king is enraged, blood can flow like rivers; how much more so when he, a powerful figure in the universe, glared angrily at Russell.
"He~~~ tui!!"
Thanos with an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth, spitting out a ball of Cosmic Energy that aimed straight at Russell's forehead.
Russell slightly sidestepped, and Thanos's spittle evaporated completely, but the energy ball continued its trajectory into the distance. Along its path, the energy shockwave carved a deep trench in the ground before finally exploding in the distance, sending up clouds of dust.
Russell was furious. He had only spat, yet Thanos wanted to kill him. He decided to retaliate immediately.
"He~~~ tui!!"
"He~~~ tui!!"
Plasma and Cosmic Energy spheres flew everywhere, explosions echoed along the edge of the battlefield, and small mushroom clouds rose up one after another.
Ignoring the attack methods and focusing solely on the destructive power, this battle was exceptionally dangerous!
Stegers: "..."
The battle for survival took a slightly off-key turn, but Russell drew most of Thanos's attention, creating an excellent opening for attack. Thanos didn't say anything, silently increasing the output of his lightning power.
Snap!
A ball of high-temperature plasma slapped onto his face, and Stegers's expression gradually darkened. Like Thanos, even though he knew it was an elemental attack and not a real spit, and even if there was any spit, it would be evaporated by the high temperature, he still couldn't help but feel angry.
"He~~~ tui!!"
Stegers opened his mouth and slapped a huge wad of Photon Energy onto the back of Thanos's head with a thud. Thanos was stunned for a second before turning around and glaring at Stegers.
Thanos's angry eyes speak volumes, and the meaning is simple and clear: why did Russell spit out the plasma cannon at him?
"He~~~ tui!!"
A plasma cannonball landed on the back of Thanos's head, leaving him completely dazed. No matter how hard he tried, he was no match for the two of them.
The three unleashed their energy, gradually overwhelming Thanos, who was forced to tighten his defenses. His right hand extended, holding Mjolnir with energy, while his left hand, the Infinity Gauntlet, blocked the Power Stone; both arms were slightly bent under the pressure.
To make matters worse, Photon Energy balls and plasma cannons attacked him from both sides, constantly slapping him in the face. The intense humiliation made him tremble with rage.
Such humiliation was something even Thanos, with the Mind Stone, couldn't suppress!
If he couldn't suppress it, he wouldn't Thanos simply let loose and didn't care about the outcome today, whether he won or lost. He had to get his revenge.
With a low shout, the Mind Stone unleashed boundless energy, and golden light, in the form of waves, surged outwards in all directions.
A powerful aura stirred the surrounding air, and Russell and Stegers were struck by Mind Stone shock, their eyes widening as they stood there dumbfounded.
Without the guidance of the two, the pent-up energy instantly went out of control, causing the energy vortex to churn, the Magnetic Field to reverse and become chaotic, and space to be torn to pieces.
The apocalypse has arrived on Morag. The land and oceans shake violently, and natural disasters such as tsunamis, storms, and earthquakes erupt simultaneously, plunging the planet's surface into chaos.
The earth's crust cracked open piece by piece, with some sections rising and others sinking along the boundaries of the cracks. Magma surged and filled these cracks all at once.
Rumble—
A thunderclap suddenly exploded, and the Morag became chaotic and shapeless. By the time Russell reacted, he was already standing outside the void.
Space was shattered and reshaped by forces such as gravity, exiling him, Thanos, Stegers, and a small portion of Morag's crust together.
Thanos, meanwhile, summoned the floating throne, plopped down on it, grabbed Ebony Maw with one hand, and smashed the void with the other, breaking open a crack and escaping.
Russell glanced around and found Natasha and the two prisoners. He opened a portal to another dimension and came to their side. His Cosmo found a spatial node and led the three away from the area, returning to Morag.
Click!
When his feet touched the ground, Russell's Golden Armor was cracked and shattered into pieces.
He thought to himself how close he had come to disaster. He had been in a daze and had no ability to defend himself. If it weren't for his Golden Armor, he would probably be the one who ended up in pieces.
Kanon's Character Card had expired, so Russell retrieved the fragments and, without a second thought, immediately added Wealth Points.
On the other side, the neglected Stegers pierced through space and fell from the clouds high in the sky, Mjolnir crashing to the ground with a thud.
His eyes glowed green; the previous Mind Stone shock had allowed the Supreme Intelligence to regain the upper hand, which was why Mjolnir had turned against him.
Ignoring the innocent bystanders, the three people in the room silently stared at each other.
Thanos was covered in blood, purple lines of blood flowing down from the floating throne, his face smeared with blood, and his barely open eyes were filled with exhaustion.
Stegers's injuries were more severe. He knelt on one knee, his deep wounds exposing the bone. Enveloped in Photon Energy, he was slowly healing himself.
Russell: "..."
This time, I can take them all down in one fell swoop!?
