Capítulo 247: Chapter: 247
"Baymax, what did you say!?" The first one to express doubt due to astonishment was none other than Star-Lord, the captain of the Baymax.
He had always believed that he had a loyal and devoted subordinate in Baymax, but now he realized that the latter had been deceiving him from the beginning.
"Big guy, hand it over now!" Rocket, being more pragmatic, pointed his gun at Baymax's head instead of Star-Lord and threatened it.
Though Gamora didn't say anything, after the shock subsided, her reaction was similar to Rocket's, shifting her attention to Baymax.
"If the Cosmic Orb has been with you all along, why did you deceive me from the start? And even after I became your captain, why didn't you reveal the truth to me?"
Star-Lord didn't care about the four billion profit the Cosmic Orb could bring; he just wanted to know why his most trusted subordinate had kept the truth hidden from him.
Facing Star-Lord's questioning, Baymax lowered its head in shame and said, "To explain this, we have to start with the Cosmic Orb itself. I hope you can hear me out.
Firstly, let me ask you all a question: do you know what the Cosmic Orb actually is?"
Everyone was bewildered by Baymax's question and shook their heads, unable to provide an answer.
"Though I can't be a hundred percent certain if the Cosmic Orb is exactly as I've surmised, there is a high probability that it is a powerful weapon—so powerful that it could turn a massive planet into nothing more than dust in the universe."
After revealing the answer, Rocket questioned Baymax's speculation, "If I'm not mistaken, Quill once mentioned that you've only been in the universe for a little over two years since you arrived from Earth. How can you determine that it is a weapon when we, who have been living in space for much longer, still don't know the truth about the Cosmic Orb?"
"While my experience in space is not as extensive as yours, I have great confidence in my deduction regarding the Cosmic Orb. I have seen terrifying weapons that emit energy waves similar to it. Those two weapons almost caused Earth's destruction, and I fell into the universe because of this."
"My master left abundant data and information about them in my database during his research. Along with other studies on Rune Magic, I deduced the true purpose of the Cosmic Orb—it's a massively destructive weapon."
Baymax projected the data from its database to confirm the authenticity of its words.
"Due to the extreme danger of the Cosmic Orb, the entire universe would be at great risk if it fell into the wrong hands. So when I heard that you, Captain, were looking for it to sell, I decided to conceal the fact that I had it."
Upon hearing Baymax's explanation, Star-Lord let out a sigh of relief, "Alright, since the Cosmic Orb is so dangerous, I won't blame you for hiding this from me."
After receiving Star-Lord's forgiveness, Baymax looked at him with gratitude, feeling touched.
"Now that the Cosmic Orb is so powerful, we can use it to destroy Ronan and his fleet together!" The Destroyer, Drax, who had always wanted to avenge his wife and daughter by killing Ronan, was the first to think about using the Orb's terrifying power to achieve his revenge.
Baymax shook its head, "Using the power of the Cosmic Orb is not that simple. Otherwise, the Morag civilization, who created it, wouldn't have perished in the flow of time."
"To activate the power of the Cosmic Orb, the user not only needs magical abilities to activate the Rune Magic inscribed on its surface but also needs to withstand the immense recoil that comes with harnessing this vast power."
"The tremendous recoil will inflict a painful cost on the user, possibly leading to death. The temples on Morag, in my analysis, were constructed to mitigate the recoil from using the Cosmic Orb, but even with that, there are undoubtedly limitations to its use."
"That's why this once brilliant and powerful civilization eventually met its downfall."
"So your plan to seek revenge with the help of the Cosmic Orb might not be feasible. I haven't detected any magical energy emanating from you, and even if you could activate the Cosmic Orb, you wouldn't be able to bear the recoil it brings."
"Then are we just going to give up the easy 4 billion that's within our grasp?" Rocket couldn't help but express reluctance.
As a bounty hunter roaming the galaxy, Rocket knew all too well that once such immense power fell into the hands of the ambitious, the entire universe would become extremely dangerous.
But faced with the temptation of a huge sum of money, his heart wavered.
"I'm not interested in money anyway, so if it can't help me, then forget it. Even if I have to do it on my own, I can still twist Ronan's head off with my bare hands!" The fierce Drax spoke harshly, mimicking Star-Lord's neck-cutting gesture with his hand again.
"There's still a chance, actually," Gamora's words broke the deadlock. "The buyer I arranged is not an ambitious person. He is wealthy, influential, and powerful. But his interest lies solely in collecting rare items from various parts of the universe."
"If we trade the Cosmic Orb with him, not only can we get a hefty sum of money, but we can also ensure the Orb's safer custody. I think we can continue with this transaction."
"That's right! Gamora is right!" Upon hearing that there was still a chance to obtain a huge sum of money, Rocket immediately agreed, "We can meet this buyer first, and if we confirm that handing the item over to him is safe and reliable, then we can complete the transaction. If we eventually find that giving it to him is not a good idea, we can still back out!"
"Baymax has reservations about this, I still don't agree with trading the Cosmic Orb. It is an extremely dangerous weapon."
Baymax definitely disagreed with Rocket's proposal. However, seeing that everyone except for him and Drax had been moved by the idea, it knew that opposing it would be futile. So, it secretly resolved to protect the Cosmic Orb.
"Alright then, let's head to where the buyer is located! Gamora, quickly provide the coordinates!" Faced with the temptation of the four-billion bounty, Star-Lord couldn't wait any longer. He immediately sat in the pilot's seat, preparing to personally fly to the trade location.
"The coordinates are xx, xx, xx, and the place is called Knowhere..."
