章節 427: Chapter 424 Sneak Attack
Underneath the surface of Ego's planet lay the fractured spaces.
Driven by Ego's enraged frenzy, the entire planet began to gather energy towards its core, turning this area into the eye of a storm. Dozens of energy streams raged within as an enraged voice echoed in the surroundings, "None of you can escape!"
Within the eye of the storm, Vis merged with the Spaceship, transforming into a massive Transformer mode, withstanding the onslaught of energy blasts with laser cannons. Quill left the cockpit, utilizing his newly awakened Celestial power to strip away the planet's energy.
Mantis also used her psychic abilities to put one of the construct avatars to sleep by grabbing hold of a transmission pipe. Lucy and Yondu, using their respective ice and arrow control abilities, severed the energy conduits one by one, hindering Ego's efforts.
Despite their efforts, Lucy and the others were forced to retreat, soon huddling almost back to back. Everywhere they looked, all they could see was engulfed by the tidal waves of energy.
"It ends here!"
The endless flow of energy coalesced into a fearsome humanoid face of Ego. Its glowing mouth opened, ready to unleash a barrage of energy blasts outward. But at that moment, the face suddenly changed color, and the tangible streams of energy began to dissipate outward.
"How... is this possible... No, don't!"
Ego muttered to itself in disbelief, then exclaimed in terror, staring blankly ahead at Quill.
Quill also lowered his head, looking at his own hands. The Celestial power entwined around his palms began to dim. His power was inherited from Ego, and as Ego died, he would also lose the Celestial power.
Taking a deep breath, Quill looked up and said coldly, "That'sright, you are done here, Ego."
"But you are my creation. If I die, you'll also be forever condemned to be mortal!"
Before Ego could finish its resentful words, the construct completely dispersed into a mist. At the same time, the tremors underground intensified, and cracks spread across the overhead rock layers, threatening to collapse.
With the core destroyed, the planet would soon face destruction.
"Being a mortal isn't so bad. Besides, I've found my family." Quill muttered softly as he glanced at Yondu, who looked relieved beside him.
"It seems Boss has succeeded," Vis stood beside the group, transforming back into his original Spaceship form, shielding them from falling rocks with his massive body.
Following his words, a humanoid glow emerged from the metallic mountain and hovered in front of the group. With a strong flash of light, Kyle, dressed in his space suit, appeared.
"Kyle!" Lucy rushed forward in excitement, clinging to Kyle's shoulder. Her body, still trembling slightly with cold, conveyed her excitement, "Logan, he's alive and safe, he's in the cockpit now."
"I knew it. He's almost an undying lone wolf. He wouldn't die so easily on this planet."
Kyle nodded with relief before scanning the others on the field, "Let's hurry and get on the spaceship. This planet is about to be completely destroyed."
Quill and Yondu nodded at each other and said in unison, "Agreed!"
Vis transformed back into the spaceship's original form, lying on the ground. The hatch opened automatically, allowing Lucy and the others to enter directly.
"Rest in peace, Master."
As everyone boarded the spaceship one by one, Mantis, with a sad expression on her face, looked back at the lifeless metallic mountain. This was her farewell, and she followed Lucy's beckoning without hesitation.
Once everyone was inside, the Spaceship ignited and began to ascend rapidly through the fissure in the ground. Dozens of red laser beams rotated and sliced through the underground passage, speeding toward the surface.
Five minutes later,
A dusty orange-blue Spaceship left the skull-like red planet behind and jumped into another Jump point. Shortly after leaving, the Ego planet exploded in a series of explosions, disappearing into nothingness in the universe.
Inside the spaceship, Kyle reverted from his Double Star Form, his breathing had changed from rapid to steady, but his body still emitted a slight heat. Lucy hugged his shoulders, and the two approached Logan, who was half lying in the seat in a coma. Their long-awaited reunion still left them feeling dazed.
"Vis, how's his condition?"
Kyle looked closely at Logan, his weathered face, white hair, frail body, and the alarming wound piercing his chest.
…
He had been on Ego's planet, captured deep within the fractured underground spaces.
It was evident from the presence of adamantium in Wolverine's body how much hardship and adversity Logan had endured over the past five years.
"Wait a moment."
Vis detached from the interior wall of the spaceship, and a small robot hopped onto the armrest of Logan's seat. After a brief scan with medical lasers, it concluded, "His body is severely malnourished, and most of his self-healing factors are dormant. However, there's no immediate danger to his life. With a dose of nutrient medication and some good rest, he'll be fine."
"That's good to hear. During this time, I entrust you to watch over and take care of him," Kyle nodded, issuing a direct order.
"Yes," Vis complied, jumping onto Logan's arm and transforming into a smartwatch, monitoring Logan's condition closely.
"He'll be fine, Kyle," Lucy whispered softly in Kyle's ear.
"Of course, he will. He's still my right-hand man for battles and conquests," Kyle replied calmly, glancing at the crew in the cockpit, particularly addressing Quill, "Quill, I've found the person I was looking for. Your task is now complete. You're free, but before that, please take us back to Planet Biko."
Quill, piloting the spacecraft, responded cheerfully, "No problem. I promised Rocket and Gamora on that planet that I would give them a ride. Now, we're heading in the direction of Planet Biko."
"Good," Kyle said, feeling a sense of relief. With this, once they obtained the Soul Stone, their journey through the stars would be complete, and the day of returning to Earth was drawing near.
Planet Biko.
The sun had already set, and the night shrouded the vast wilderness of the civilization ruins.
A star twinkled in the pitch-black night sky, then enlarged into a bright disk of light, descending until it reached a certain altitude, revealing itself as a glowing Spaceship.
"That's strange. This should be the right location. Where are the buildings from the daytime? Did we get lost?"
Quill, at the main pilot seat, felt deeply puzzled as he maneuvered the spacecraft closer to the ground. The bright lights illuminated only a landscape of civilization debris and ruins.
"Something's wrong."
Kyle's expression turned cold in an instant. Without waiting for the spaceship to land, he reacted quickly, opening the hatch and flying down with Lucy, landing on the sunken ground with some remaining charred bricks.
He couldn't be mistaken. This was the original location of Howard's building during the day.
"Oh my God!"
Quill operated the spaceship and directed the light into the distance. Those who remained inside the cabin couldn't help but gasp in shock.
Within a radius of a hundred meters, smoke billowed, indicating a brutal battle had taken place. Armor-clad monster corpses littered the ground everywhere, and the dark brown blood stained the ruins red.
