Parked in the docking area were mining operation capsules from Knowhere. These capsules were not equipped with weapons and could not provide long-lasting protection for the pilots in space.
Star-Lord and his companions piloted a ship with a significant firepower gap, and they were about to face the massive fleet of Ronan. While Star-Lord's exceptional piloting skills allowed them to maneuver within the intense barrage, such an extreme state couldn't be sustained for long.
Anyone with keen eyes could see that they were already at a disadvantage, and defeat was just a matter of time.
On the other side, Drax also confronted his long-desired enemy, Ronan.
"You killed my wife, you killed my daughter, and today, I will chop off your head to honor their spirits!"
After saying this, Drax charged directly at Ronan like a raging bull.
However, as Baymax expected, in front of Ronan, Drax seemed to be a powerless child, and his strong muscles were completely useless.
Facing the mad onslaught from Drax, Ronan didn't even need to raise a hand to defend himself. He effortlessly dodged Drax's attacks by shifting his footwork.
"I don't remember killing your family, and I won't remember killing you either—"
Ronan's words were casual, as if killing Drax was as insignificant as squashing an ant.
Next, Ronan finally made a move to block Drax's attacks. Not because he felt pressured by Drax, but because he was ready to put an end to this troublesome nuisance.
As Drax swung his dagger towards Ronan, the latter quickly caught his wrist and delivered a kick to Drax's stomach.
Bang!
With just one kick, Drax lost all his fighting ability and fell to the ground in pain.
As Ronan prepared to strike again, fully intending to kill Drax, Baymax, who had been observing on the sidelines, stepped forward.
Baymax understood Drax's determination to avenge his family.
That's why, during Drax's earlier fight with Ronan, it didn't intervene and allowed Drax to have his wish for a one-on-one battle.
But now, Drax had completely lost his fighting ability, and continuing like this would likely result in his death at Ronan's hands. Baymax couldn't just stand by and watch.
Concentrating all its energy into the thrusters of its battle armor, Baymax swiftly arrived between the two.
With a high-speed descent, Baymax embraced the fallen Drax and quickly moved him away from Ronan before the latter could react.
Baymax was well aware that it had no chance of directly rescuing Drax from Ronan, given Ronan's energy level. It had to seize the opportunity before Ronan could react.
With the assistance of precise calculations from its computing power, Baymax accurately seized the perfect moment and successfully saved Drax.
Seeing that his prey had flown away, Ronan was unfazed. To him, whether it was Drax or Baymax, they were all ants that he could crush with one hand. Even if they escaped, it wouldn't cause any trouble for him, let alone waste his time chasing them.
Ronan merely glanced in the direction where Baymax had fled and then turned back to focus on obtaining the Cosmic orb. Everything else was insignificant.
...
"Drax! Drax!"
Once Drax was rescued, Baymax noticed that he had already passed out. Perhaps the intense pain triggered his brain's self-preservation mechanism, as he showed no response to Baymax's calls.
Fortunately, after conducting a holographic scan, Baymax confirmed that Drax had no major injuries or serious internal damage. This eased its worries.
"Groot, watch over Drax and keep him safe. I must help the captain and the others protect the Cosmic orb. We can't let such a dangerous weapon fall into Ronan's hands."
"I am Groot."
Though not entirely understanding Groot's meaning like Rocket did every time he spoke, Baymax knew that Groot understood its request and accepted the task.
Pushing the thrusters to their limits, Baymax was about to rush to Star-Lord's side when it received a voice message from him.
"Baymax, please respond to my message quickly. My coordinates are 227k324. The situation is urgent, and I really need your help!"
In addition to Star-Lord's voice, Baymax also heard Rocket's voice in the message.
"Quill, don't be foolish! Gamora has a strong body and can survive in space for at least a few minutes. The mining capsule can't accommodate both of you, and if you go out now, you'll die!"
Though unaware of the exact situation on Star-Lord's end, Baymax was sure that it was a matter of life and death.
Quickly increasing the power of its thrusters, Baymax headed to the coordinates provided by Star-Lord while sending a reply.
"Captain, hold on! Baymax is coming!"
As Baymax had guessed, Star-Lord was indeed in serious trouble!
While protecting the Cosmic orb, Gamora's mining capsule had been destroyed by her sister, Nebula, on the outer edge of Knowhere.
Gamora was now exposed to the vacuum of space without any protective gear, and her situation was critical.
...
At this moment, a layer of frost had formed on Gamora's body due to the vacuum of space, but her strong body allowed her to withstand the pressure.
However, without oxygen support, Gamora was at risk of suffocating in space.
Just then, a figure approached her using rocket boots on his feet.
"Come back, Quill! You'll die!"
Risking his life, Star-Lord rushed to rescue Gamora. Rocket could only watch anxiously from inside the mining capsule, unable to provide any assistance.
Finally, Star-Lord reached Gamora's side and took off his own helmet, placing it on her head.
Seeing Gamora's chest rising and falling again, Star-Lord knew his plan had worked.
But at this moment, due to the vacuum and low-temperature environment of space, frost had also formed on his skin, and his eyes turned bloodshot from the pressure.
Despite this, Star-Lord didn't feel the pain. As he watched Gamora's life signs strengthen, he felt an inexplicable sense of satisfaction.
Just as he was about to lose consciousness, he faintly saw a red figure appear before him...
