Chapter 298: Chapter 297
In the blink of an eye, more than half a month had passed.
During this time, the Avengers and Ultron were locked in intense battles, fighting fiercely. With the assistance of the Transformers, Ultron's actions were severely restricted, preventing him from continuing to move freely through the internet.
In other words, as long as they could destroy Ultron's physical body, they could completely eliminate him. This was undoubtedly great news for the Avengers!
Victory over Ultron seemed within reach.
However, as an intelligent life form, Ultron wasn't foolish. He created countless duplicates of himself, spreading them throughout different parts of the United States.
Although Ultron couldn't traverse the internet anymore, he could freely switch between his duplicates.
This meant that to completely eliminate Ultron, they would need to destroy all of his duplicates.
This was no easy task!
Ultron and the Avengers had clashed numerous times, with both sides experiencing victories and defeats.
Meanwhile, the reincarnators from both sides were also fighting fiercely against each other to complete their respective missions.
Many reincarnators had already perished here, while others managed to complete their tasks and return to the Reincarnation Space.
Everyone's missions were different, but they mostly revolved around Ultron.
Except for Chen Ye!
Over the past half month, Chen Ye's mission progress had reached 9/10!
He only needed to recruit one more subordinate to complete his mission and return to the Reincarnation Space.
But finding this last subordinate was proving to be a challenge for Chen Ye!
Many villains had already become his subordinates.
Currently, Chen Ye's subordinates included: Scarlet Witch, Quicksilver, Spider-Man, Doctor Strange, the third-generation Black Widow Yelena Belova, Baron Mordo, Star-Lord, a dragon, and even the Fire Giant Surtur.
Baron Mordo was currently training with the Ancient One. After Doctor Strange takes over the position of Sorcerer Supreme, Baron Mordo is destined to become a major villain, opposing Doctor Strange.
He is quite powerful!
Chen Ye visited Kamar-Taj and spoke with the Ancient One, expressing his desire to change Baron Mordo's fate. Surprisingly, the Ancient One agreed and even helped Chen Ye bring Mordo over.
As for Star-Lord, he had just formed a new team and was roaming the universe.
Finding Star-Lord took Chen Ye quite some effort. He enlisted Thor's help to travel into space and then posted a high-reward bounty, waiting for Star-Lord to take the bait.
His perseverance paid off.
After spending seven or eight days in space, Chen Ye finally met Star-Lord.
Despite his goofy nature and relatively weak combat skills, Star-Lord's true strength couldn't be denied.
His biological father is "Ego"!
A Celestial!
An entire planet with its own consciousness, known as the "Living Planet"!
So, Star-Lord is actually the descendant of a Celestial, with enormous potential.
In "Guardians of the Galaxy," Star-Lord was able to hold the Power Stone without being destroyed, demonstrating his formidable physical strength.
And then there's the Fire Giant, "Surtur"!
The same Surtur who brought about Ragnarok and destroyed Asgard.
Even the mighty Hela perished at the hands of Surtur.
Chen Ye managed to recruit Surtur with Thor's assistance, taking him to Surtur's lair.
There, he and Thor teamed up to give Surtur a thorough beating. Using the Mind Stone, Chen Ye was able to control Surtur and make him submit.
Surtur has become one of Chen Ye's most prized subordinates.
Although Surtur's full combat potential requires the Eternal Flame, Chen Ye is quite satisfied with having the "weakened" version of Surtur as his ally.
Additionally, Chen Ye also managed to recruit the giant dragon residing in Surtur's lair.
That dragon was incredibly powerful, so much so that even Thor struggled to contain it, being chased around.
---
And so, these are the origins of Chen Ye's current nine subordinates.
He is still one subordinate short of completing his mission.
However, there are only five days left to accomplish this.
For the final subordinate, Chen Ye's first choice is the dark dimension's demon lord, "Dormammu"!
When it comes to Marvel's supervillains, Dormammu definitely ranks among the top.
Without the Infinity Stones, even Thanos is nothing compared to Dormammu!
As the ruler of the Dark Dimension, Dormammu's power is incredibly formidable.
But precisely because Dormammu is so powerful, Chen Ye has no way of recruiting him.
Chen Ye even consulted the Sorcerer Supreme, the Ancient One, about this issue, and the response was a definitive "impossible."
At Dormammu's level, even the Mind Stone might not have any effect on him.
Aside from Dormammu.
Chen Ye's second choice is Thor's sister, Hela!
Anyone who has seen "Thor: Ragnarok" knows that Hela's strength is terrifying.
As Thor's sister, Hela had long fought alongside Odin, her power unrivaled.
She could crush Thor's Mjolnir with one hand!
Even Odin could only seal her away.
Compared to Hela, Thor was clearly outmatched!
However...
Recruiting Hela wouldn't be easy for Chen Ye!
Unless he could convince Odin!
"That old man probably wouldn't want his child to ultimately perish in 'Ragnarok,' right? Maybe it's worth talking to him after all?"
