Bab 344: Chapter 343: Destiny, A Bridge!
Seeing the Heart One restored to its normal size, Rocket Raccoon was so astonished that he couldn't close his mouth: "Oh my God! I've never flown such a large spaceship before!"
"I am Groot!"
"Well, I admit I've never even seen a spaceship this big before, but you didn't have to point it out, Groot. That's embarrassing for me!"
"I am Groot!"
...
Watching the usual bickering between the small raccoon and the large tree, Clark couldn't help but find it amusing: "Actually, without your translation, nobody would understand what Groot is trying to say."
Received +999 impression points from Rocket!
Tough crowd!
Everyone's so straightforward, not knowing the first thing about subtlety, it's just too much!
The group, led by Clark, entered the interior of the spaceship. Rocket Raccoon quickly became familiar with the Heart One's operating system, and in no time, he had it up and running: "Your Highness, this is my first time piloting such a powerful spaceship, and the feeling is just incredible. You wouldn't mind if I send the coordinates to those arrogant Sovereign ladies and then use your spaceship to give them a good thrashing, would you?"
Rocket Raccoon was the type who appeared cold on the outside but warm on the inside. Despite having a gentle heart, he liked to hide it all behind a temperamental demeanor.
His suggestion wasn't really about looking for trouble; he just felt slighted and planned to annoy Clark a bit.
Clark, hearing this, suddenly had an interesting idea and said intriguingly: "The spaceship's communication function requires my authorization for you to use it, but if you're willing to join the Avengers, I can appoint you as the commander of the Heart One. All of the spaceship's functions, including the communication feature you just mentioned, will be open to you."
Rocket, though small, was a rare talent.
Not only did he possess significant combat ability, but he was also a master mechanic with knowledge of cutting-edge universal mechanics. Additionally, he was one of the top pilots in the universe, with first-class skills in piloting spaceships.
From this perspective, his abilities somewhat overlapped with Star-Lord's, and staying in the Guardians of the Galaxy would be a waste.
Clark felt that it would be better for such a talent to follow him.
The offer Clark made was generous. For a spaceship pilot like Rocket, it was like a driver on Earth suddenly being told by a billionaire: "Follow me, and this globally limited Maserati is yours to drive however you wish!"
Faced with such temptation, the more a driver loves cars, the harder it is to refuse, and Rocket was precisely such a passionate "old driver."
To say he wasn't moved by such an offer would be a lie even he wouldn't believe.
However, after a moment of silence, Rocket didn't pick up Clark's offer and instead changed the subject: "We're about to enter a space jump point, everyone get ready, this will be a big strain on the body."
Clark simply smiled, saying nothing.
As the space jump point activated, from afar it looked like countless hexagons forming a large screen. Under Rocket Raccoon's control, the Heart One quickly plunged into one of the most active sections of this "large screen," and the scenery in front of them became bizarre as if entering another dimension. In a blink of an eye, they emerged from another space jump point.
However, the oppressive sensation one would expect didn't occur, which surprised Rocket Raccoon, though he reminded again: "To reach Ego's planet, we need to go through over 700 continuous space jumps. This is just the beginning, so everyone be mentally prepared." With that, they began another space jump.
The spaceship remained stable, and those on board felt no discomfort. After the third, fourth, and several more jumps, being in the Heart One felt as calm as slowly cruising through the universe.
"How... how is this possible?" Rocket Raccoon, still in shock as he continued to navigate through space jumps, asked: "Each space jump is a severe test for both the spaceship and its occupants. Continuous space jumps are hard to endure even for my modified body. How can there be no sensation this time?"
"Because this spaceship is unique," Clark finally spoke leisurely: "The Heart One was created by Thanos using Titan technology and materials from across the universe, making its performance top-notch in the cosmos. After I took it over, I further enhanced it with the method used for forging divine artifacts. Even ordinary energy cannons can't damage it."
"The mere energy fluctuations from space jumps can't affect the Heart One or its passengers."
Received +999 impression points from Rocket!
The more Clark talked, the more Rocket felt tempted by his earlier proposal.
A spaceship enhanced with the methods used for forging magical artifacts, and one of the most advanced
large spacecraft in the universe, Rocket began to weigh whether to continue following Star-Lord, who seemed to have no future.
Observing Rocket's breathing and heartbeat, Clark's lips curled into a satisfied smile.
This smile lasted only a moment before his expression turned into a sinister and excited grin because...
"Received impression points from the Cosmic Will, automatically converted into 'Random BGM Lottery Card' x1!"
Unprepared and without a second thought, the abrupt system notification caught Clark off guard.
Happiness came too suddenly!
After all, there were no other people in the spaceship; how could the Cosmic Will have noticed them?
It must be said, the Cosmic Will, being able to hide itself so well that not even a multiversal entity like him could sense its exact location?
Meanwhile, on a desolate uninhabited planet in the universe, including Watcher Uatu, three big-headed observers were watching a mysterious white-haired old man in a spacesuit. However, their attention was drawn away by a giant spaceship continuously making space jumps, causing the old man to feel very displeased with the spaceship that interrupted him.
After watching the spaceship disappear into another wormhole without reappearing, the observers finally shifted their gaze back.
And the mysterious white-haired old man, whose spotlight was stolen by the Heart One, grumbled loudly: "Oh, come on! Anyway, let me continue from where I was rudely interrupted. Back then, I was just a FedEx delivery guy..."
...
After scanning the entire spaceship with his psychic power to ensure no one else was aboard, Clark no longer dwelt on the old man's issues but silently accessed the system interface to use the Random BGM Lottery Card.
"Congratulations to the host for using the 'Random BGM Lottery Card', you have received the BGM 'Destiny, A Bridge.'"
"Destiny, A Bridge"
Level: 1 (0/1000)
Effect: Harnessing the emotions of bonds and the conviction of protection, this BGM enhances combat strength beyond limits. Under its musical backdrop, the combat power of our team will be significantly boosted. The specific enhancement depends on the BGM's level and the combat will of our team members. The deeper the bond among companions and the stronger the conviction to protect, the greater the increase in combat power.
A BGM with a group amplification effect?
Clark's lips curled into an excited smile, but then his brow furrowed slightly.
He had a feeling that this BGM would be of great use to him!
Now the question was, with Clark's current strength, what kind of critical moment would require him to rely on his teammates to secure victory?
That was a rather terrifying thought!
As these thoughts passed through his mind, the space jumps had concluded, and appearing in front of the spaceship was a red planet, looking like a ferocious old face grinning ominously.
Ego's planet, they had finally arrived!
On Ego's planet, Gamora sat alone in the grassy outdoors, her expression blank as she watched the distant sunset. A burning wind brushed against her cheeks, causing her long hair at the temples to flutter slightly. The hot air carried the unique scent of Ego's desolate grass into her nostrils, worsening her already sour mood.
Just moments ago, she had had a fight with Star-Lord.
She felt that Ego was untrustworthy, and there were too many suspicious things about this planet. Her years of experience adventuring in the universe told her that Ego's words were false, merely weaving a beautiful dream for Star-Lord. Beneath the facade of a false paradise, there surely lay an even more brutal abyss.
Thus, she had suggested that Star-Lord leave with her, but he was now so engrossed in the sweet dream of fatherly love that he refused to wake up!
"Buzz!…"
An unidentified beetle flew close to Gamora, circling her persistently and refusing to leave, finally wearing out her last bit of patience.
"Swish!" Without looking back, she swung her sword and sliced the annoying insect in two. Just as Gamora was about to sheathe her sword, she suddenly saw sparks dancing in the air.
The dancing sparks drew a circle in the void, and then a familiar figure, brimming with murderous intent, stepped out from this portal linking another space.
