Chương 218: Earth
I have to say, Rocket is really easy to take care of.
"Honey, what are we going to do next?" Lorna, still snuggled in Zane's arms, suddenly asked.
Zane looked down and gave her a light kiss on the forehead.
"You've all had your fun these past few years, now it's your turn to show me this vast universe."
Everyone's eyes lit up, and they scrambled to speak:
"Master, come to my place first, the planet of the Elves is beautiful."
"Master, there are some spectacular astronomical sights in the Milky Way, you must see them."
"Darling, you have to see the Caesar civilization I've built first."
"I am Groot, I am Groot…"
"Stupid cat, what's so great about those plant-eating Elves!"
"What kind of civilization can a woman who only plays with iron build!"
"Master, it seems I should be the one to take you to see the astronomical wonders!"
"Shut up, skeleton!" Lorna and Bastis simultaneously yelled at Little Bone.
"…"
Looking at the group arguing again, a helpless smile appeared on Zane's face.
Now, each of these people could stand out as a big shot in their own right.
But when they're together, they're still like this.
Though, it feels kind of nice...
"Alright, alright, stop arguing."
Instantly, everyone stopped arguing and turned their eyes to Zane.
Those threatening gazes made Zane shiver.
Even though Zane had become a god, he couldn't stop that chill from deep inside.
"How about we go for a walk with Little Groot first…" Zane hesitantly suggested.
Immediately, Little Groot happily started dancing cutely on Zane's shoulder.
This made everyone else unhappy.
Lorna, pouting like a little girl, got more and more annoyed seeing Little Groot's smug look.
Finally, she grabbed him in her hand and gave him a sinister smile, causing Little Groot to look terrified.
At the same time, Bastis, now on the same side as Lorna for the first time, jumped onto Lorna's shoulder and looked sinisterly at the terrified Little Groot.
"Oh, you seem very pleased with yourself!" Lorna said with a smile, her icy tone making Zane shiver uncontrollably.
"I am Groot." The terrified Little Groot looked pitifully at Zane.
But Zane just turned his head away, ignoring Little Groot's plea for help.
"Rocket, how about a drink?" Zane said to Rocket, who was standing nearby with a twitching mouth.
As he spoke, he frantically winked at Rocket.
"Sure, let's go!" Rocket was also eager to leave and quickly agreed.
Then, without looking back, Zane and Rocket escaped from the battlefield about to erupt in flames, ignoring Little Groot's 'miserable' wails.
Only Little Groot's panicked voice and the darkened laughter of Lorna and the others echoed in the space...
Over the next year, everyone took Zane along the paths they had once traveled.
Zane witnessed the astronomical wonders that Little Bone had mentioned, which were indeed awe-inspiring.
He saw a star, emitting endless light and heat, collapse over time into a white dwarf the size of a football.
He also witnessed a cosmic black hole that swallowed even light.
Following Bastis, he saw the Elven race, who were as beautiful as the elves from Earth's mythology, if not more so.
He then visited the Caesar civilization that Lorna had established, where martial valor was highly esteemed.
For this entire year, everyone indulged in fun, and Zane finally experienced the vastness and mysteries of the universe.
Numerous races that once seemed unimaginable to him were indeed living in this infinite universe.
During their journey, they even encountered a cosmic giant beast, several light-years long, carrying a civilization on its back through the void.
He also deeply felt the immense growth of everyone over the short span of four years.
The once-cute girl who only acted spoiled around him had grown into an iron-blooded queen.
The lazy little cat (panther) that used to sleep in had transformed into a guardian deity of a race.
Even Little Bone, who used to follow his orders without question, now had the imposing title of 'Hell's Skeleton' in the universe.
Time and experiences indeed change people, just as Zane had once said.
These were a bunch of incredibly talented goofballs who, given the chance, could soar to the sky and roam the cosmos in no time!
Meanwhile, during this year, under everyone's coordination, the forces they formed had established an alliance, managed uniformly by Skynet.
This completely freed Lorna from her busy administrative duties.
After visiting all the places, Lorna looked at Zane and asked:
"Darling, where are we going next?"
Zane hugged Lorna, pondered for a while, and then suddenly smiled:
"We're going home!"
That's right, the home Zane referred to was Earth.
Although he had found Earth quite boring back then, now, for some reason, Zane suddenly missed life on that blue planet.
Hearing Zane's words, Lorna's eyes lit up instantly, and she eagerly nodded.
In fact, she also missed the peaceful life on Earth.
Compared to the darkness and cruelty of the universe, the internal conflicts on Earth seemed like child's play.
Lorna, who had single-handedly created a powerful civilization, had long grown tired of the constant strife and violence between civilizations.
Now, she longed for the old days on Earth.
"Okay, let's go back to Earth!"
With that, Zane gathered Bastis and the others together.
"Master, are we going back to Earth?" Bastis asked with shining eyes, and Zane even saw a glimmer of liquid at the corner of her mouth.
The salmon Zane had brought from Earth had long been devoured by Bastis, the insatiable glutton.
Though Bastis had tasted countless delicacies over the years, she still craved the salmon from Earth.
The Elven race had already formed an alliance with the Caesar civilization and Skynet's mechanical planet, so she no longer needed to protect them.
So, upon hearing the news about returning to Earth, the foodie couldn't wait any longer.
"Earth? What place is that?" Rocket asked curiously.
"Earth is my home planet, I guess!" Zane replied with a sigh.
Unknowingly, it had been ten years since he arrived in the Marvel universe. How time flies!
He had grown from the confused young man he once was to the grim reaper he is now.
It's no exaggeration to say that if Zane stomped his foot now, the Milky Way would tremble.
This was something Zane couldn't have even dreamed of ten years ago!
