Officer, I Want to Go Home and Take a Look

Lightning flashed and thunder roared in the sky, and a chilling whirlwind swept across the battlefield, making it difficult to move an inch and howling into the distance.

Russell, Thanos, Stegers faced off, their powerful auras colliding, causing the ground to tremble. Tiny grains of sand, pulled by energy, broke free from gravity, slowly floating before being crushed into dust.

At this point in the battle, it was essentially coming to an end, and in Russell's view, he had won.

Stegers has been controlled by the Supreme Intelligence countless times. On the surface, it appears to be Russell fighting two against one, but in reality, it's him at full health fighting two people with low health.

Moreover, Russell knew Stegers's fatal weakness and could easily persuade him to switch sides with a few words, so he wasn't worried at all. It's just that his Wealth Points were being depleted at an alarming rate; in another two minutes, they would probably be completely wiped out.

With time running out, Russell didn't dare to make any rash boasts. He rushed toward the floating throne, shouting, "Steve, if you dare to be controlled by the Supreme Intelligence again, I'll transfer Carter to be my office secretary... well, the kind who's also my personal assistant."

As soon as he finished speaking, Russell raised his hand and tore open the interdimensional space. The moment he rushed in, he opened a portal and descended above Thanos's head.

Phantom Demon Emperor Fist!

Russell pointed a telekinetic wave, which radiated and manipulated Thanos's brain, leaving the purple-skinned Thanos in a semi-paralyzed state. He prepared to use the Galaxy Explosion to finish off the remaining enemies.

As for who the superheroes will team up against after Thanos is gone, Russell doesn't care. Whoever it is, as long as it's not him!

Thanos sat firmly on the floating throne, a slight smile playing on his lips. He pressed the Infinity Gauntlet against the throne's armrest, channeling Cosmic Energy into it. The built-in weapon immediately retaliated, unleashing a shockwave with the destructive power of a battleship's main cannon that sent Russell tumbling.

A fierce wind swept through, Stegers soared into the sky, then swooped down. Due to multiple severe injuries to his limbs, he concentrated all his energy in his legs, transforming them into a heavy axe of light that cleaved straight towards... Russell!

With the green light still lingering in Stegers's eyes, Russell, seeing that his verbal attacks had no effect, tore open a dimensional portal and fled without a second thought.

Saint Seiya has plenty of offensive capabilities, but defense is a major problem.

Although the flesh and blood body has long transcended the concept of mortals, even if all the bones and meridians in the body are broken, he can immediately become a hero again by sticking them together with his Cosmo. But that is a Bronze Saint Seiya, and a Bronze Saint who is secretly and heavily nurtured by Athena. It has little to do with Kanon, the candidate for the Gold Twins.

If Russell had all his bones broken, he could only survive by relying on the Hui Tailang Tattoo. Moreover, with powerful enemies all around, Thanos would not give him a chance to stand up again.

The dimensional rift disappeared, Russell ran far away, Stegers's offensive continued unabated, bombarding the energy shield of the floating throne with Photon Energy.

It wasn't a rear-end collision. If you look closely, you'll see that the green in Stegers's eyes has completely disappeared; he was just acting.

"Captain Marvel, you can fool him, but you can't fool me!"

Thanos sneered, the Mind Stone shone brightly, and the Cosmic Energy doubled, unleashing a fierce shockwave that blasted Stegers away.

Thanos was severely injured and used the Mind Stone to forcibly charge his energy. The aftereffects cannot be recovered in a short time, and he is currently unable to move freely, so he can only become a mobile artillery platform.

The effect was good; he feigned weakness to deceive Stegers, causing him to suffer further injuries, fall to the ground, struggle a couple of times, and never get up again.

Buzzing!

The floating throne deflected its attack target, and several beams of cosmic light bombarded the location of Stegers. The explosion sent up clouds of smoke and dust that lingered for a long time.

Thanos didn't even glance at him. After confirming that Stegers had been taken away by Russell through a portal, he used Mind Stone to control the floating throne and fired to the right.

Meanwhile, in orbit around the planet Morag, dozens of warships of the Black Order revealed their dense array of cannons, unleashing a barrage of missiles and beams in an indiscriminate attack on the ground.

This was Thanos's order. He was too exhausted to fight anymore and wanted to leave, but he was afraid that Russell's interdimensional portal would block his way, so he stirred up the waters to make it easier for him to escape.

Thanos was determined to escape, and Russell was also heartbroken about Wealth Points. He led Stegers and the others to run far away. In less than a minute, their Wealth Points had been reduced by more than half, and they were extremely distressed.

The warship bombarded for ten minutes before Thanos took Ebony Maw and left the surface. He did not enter the warship directly, but instead piloted the floating throne through two spatial nodes before summoning his flagship.

Russell called for the spaceship to land, escaping the apocalyptic Morag.

This battle resulted in mutual destruction, with neither side gaining any advantage.

Thanos became more obsessed with the Infinity Stones. The longer Russell possessed the Power Stone, the less likely Thanos was to steal it. He set his sights on other stones and would not risk a confrontation with Russell again until he had an absolute advantage.

In the vast universe, three warships flew slowly. Russell returned with a ship full of wounded soldiers. His reputation not only did not decline, but actually increased significantly.

Morag is finished. Even if it doesn't explode, it will eventually be designated as a no-life zone.

Russell's battle with Thanos was witnessed by his henchmen, the Chitauri. Zereel went from fawning over him to lying down and fawning over him, thankful that he hadn't followed the wrong leader. In the vast universe, only Russell could protect them from being wiped out by the Black Order.

The Dark Elves submitted to him, and their leader Malekith, who had initially harbored some ambition, had it all extinguished by Malekith himself. Malekith swore to be loyal forever and never betray them.

Russell wasn't particularly interested in his loyalty, and only refrained from abandoning him in space to fend for himself, considering that the next stop was Svartalfheim, the homeland of the Dark Elves.

Russell strode into the control room with a dark expression. "Zereel, how far are we from Svartalfheim?"

Without waiting for a reply, he directly ordered, "Increase the speed of traversing space nodes. I hope to see Svartalfheim tomorrow."

After saying that, Russell left.

It's a bit of a headache. Natasha picked up Mjolnir and gained Thor's power again. Last night, she volunteered to declare war on Russell, striving for perfection, then striving for perfection again, and then striving for perfection again, until he was utterly humiliated.

Mjolnir cannot be kept; it's a menace. We must get a ransom from Odin as soon as possible.

Captain Marvel Stegers, recovered well from her injuries and, while escaping Morag, asked Russell for help to find the Starforce.

They were all wounded, and their injuries were quite severe.

Russell arranged for them to receive treatment, but before they were fully recovered, he arranged for a fighter jet to evacuate them all.

The Kree Empire's special forces are also a menace; they can't be kept around for long, since they're not one of their own. Even with Stegers's repeated assurances, Russell doesn't believe them.

In the crew lounge, Russell looked at Stegers, who had mostly recovered from his injuries. "What, reluctant to Captain Marvel?"

"No, Captain Marvel is just a title. Wouldn't it be the same if it were Hydra Captain?"

"Then why do you look so sullen, like Carter remarried?"

Stegers glanced at Russell speechlessly. "I still can't get back my lost memories, and I don't know how to face her... or my former comrades and partners."

Amnesia is great!

Russell chuckled and nodded, "Believe me, the past isn't important. Forget it, forget it. It's no big deal!"

Stegers frowned. "But I always feel that memory is very important, uh, sir... I feel especially awkward every time I address you..."

"It's okay, it's normal to feel awkward at first, you'll get used to it, I don't blame you."

"Sir, I want to go back to my hometown to try and awaken my memories, so that I won't feel awkward facing you again."

Russell: "..."
