Chapter 89: Chapter 85 : Thanos’ Hallucinations
[No matter how strong people are, they are vulnerable children in front of their mothers, even Thor is no exception.]
With the conversation with his mother, Thor's repressed pain disappeared little by little, and his soul changed from black and white to color.
However, good times are always short, and not long after the rocket has obtained ether (Reality Stone).
Thor is about to return to the future, at this time his eyes are no longer as dull as before, and they already have a determined look.
And when he regained his grip on his Hammer, Thor came to life!
The God of Thunder returns.
In the Marvel world, Loki, disguised as a soldier of the Dark Order, is full of thoughts.
Yes, he missed Frigga.
Especially after hearing Thor's words that his mother was killed by the dark elves, he could no longer contain this thought.
Now, he is looking for an opportunity to assassinate the captain of the spaceship.
In Asgard, Thor's eyes appeared firmer than ever before, and his temperament was completely different from the past.
Even his current idea is not to destroy Thanos, but to destroy the dark elves.
Odin on the side nodded secretly, perhaps Thor can do more than himself!
[Screen Changes, Vormir. ]
[Natasha and Clint met the Red Skull who had become the Stonekeeper!]
Obtaining the Soul Gem, which they initially thought would be an easy task, proved to be the most challenging of all. To acquire it, they had to sacrifice their loved ones.
This was an eternal deal—soul for soul.
From that moment, the wheel of fate began to turn. Life for life.
Outside the camera, Natasha and Hawkeye, who had been concerned about Hydra, were stunned simultaneously.
Hawkeye sighed and thought of his family, but he believed he could never back down. In this profession, there would always be a day for such decisions.
Natasha smiled, fully aware of the outcome, but there was no sorrow in her eyes. Perhaps, this future had its own merits.
At the same moment, countless viewers from various worlds watched in curiosity.
The test of humanity was underway.
Many speculated whether they would come up with excuses, given the shadow of real death, even loved ones could falter.
As humans, survival was a fundamental instinct engraved in their genes. Would they both choose not to sacrifice, leaving it to chance?
However, at the next moment, silence descended upon the audience.
Natasha and Clint chose to sacrifice themselves without hesitation. They both attacked each other to save one another's life.
Finally, on the cliff, Clint had a rope secured around his waist while he held Natasha who watched him intently.
Their eyes were resolute.
As Natasha looked at Clint in front of her, she smiled, and with a powerful step, she broke free from his grasp and leaped into the abyss without hesitation.
On the icy rocks below, the woman codenamed Black Widow bled but wore a serene expression.
Human flaws were everywhere, but human greatness was a rare gem.
On the top floor of S.H.I.E.L.D., Nick Fury sighed. He realized that Natasha's decision to sacrifice herself held not only the joy of keeping Clint alive but also a sense of liberation and redemption.
He had always thought Natasha was an emotionless top agent, but it was far more complicated than he had imagined.
In the DC world, Lucifer knew without looking that the old man next to him was in pain.
This level of self-devotion, self-sacrifice, and soul redemption was exceedingly rare and held the potential for angelic transformation—the kind of soul heaven dreamed of.
Camera switch to Mogla Planet.
Quill once again showed everyone the essence of a carefree fool.
He danced, laughed, and closed his eyes, fully immersed in his joy on the deserted planet.
Until an older War Machine struck him down with a swift punch, completing the task.
At this moment, many viewers pumped their fists in relief.
If it weren't for this jester, Thanos would have likely been defeated sooner, and half of the universe's life would have been spared, along with Black Widow, Natasha.
Quill absentmindedly touched his head, looking bewildered at Yondu sitting beside him.
"So, is my future self responsible for all that laughter?"
Yondu blinked and gave a reassuring nod.
"Good lad, have confidence, and keep moving forward."
The scene shifted, and the two successfully acquired the Power Gem.
However, in 2014, Nebula failed to return and was captured by Thanos.
But the past Nebula managed to replace her and return to the future.
In the Marvel world, Tony Stark, who was observing, felt a shiver down his spine as an accident unfolded.
At that moment, he witnessed the profound resolve and cunning of Thanos for the first time.
While this time-travel video might offer him an advantage, he knew the other side would deviate from the original timeline and perhaps even devise countermeasures.
In a distant corner of the universe, Carol Danvers, known as Captain Marvel, wore a confident smile. She had acquired valuable foreknowledge this time, making her doubt Thanos' ability to gather the Infinity Stones again.
In fact, once the video ended, she intended to seek him out.
To her, the so-called Black Order posed no greater threat than mere insects. As for Thanos, he may appear formidable, but he couldn't match her powers in binary star mode.
As for Thanos, he suddenly furrowed his brow in Sanctuary II. He thought he heard someone calling his name, a faint voice echoing from a far-off place.
He glanced at his two oblivious daughters below, his concern deepening. He couldn't have misheard it; someone had indeed called him.
(Year 2023, Avengers Tower)
[The quantum channel opened, and three seconds after everyone departed from this time point, they returned simultaneously.]
[However, Dr. Banner soon realized something was amiss as the person he eagerly awaited did not return.]
[As the others grasped the situation and saw Clint's speechless expression, their hearts sank, understanding the grim truth.]
[Sadness hung in the air, and they could only come to terms with this reality.]
[A few days later, with the technical support of the Nano Warframe, they completed the new gauntlet capable of holding the gems.]
[Debate arose regarding who should wield the gauntlet, as the immense energy generated during the snap was too overwhelming for ordinary individuals.]
[Tony, offscreen, shrugged, realizing that his small frame wouldn't withstand the massive energy and gamma radiation involved in the process.]
In Asgard, Thor exuded confidence. As the mightiest Avenger among them, he considered himself the one destined for the task.
["I shall take this burden upon myself," Thor declared confidently.]
[Tony suddenly intervened with a nervous expression, concerned for Thor's well-being.]
[Seeing everyone's disagreement, Tony, albeit unhappily, remarked that he was no longer the same person he used to be.]
["Do you even know what courses through my veins?!"]
[Interrupting Thor's determined statement, Tony interjected humorously, "Must be all mayonnaise!" Rhodey enthusiastically agreed.]
Offscreen, Tony gave a thumbs up to Rhodey, appreciating his sense of humor.
In Asgard, Thor, despite his confidence, silently swore that from that moment onward, he'd abstain from mayonnaise; his aversion to it was now worth losing an eye!
Thor reminded himself to be strong-willed and avoid mayo if he wanted to keep both eyes.
[Just as Thor was about to speak, Dr. Banner stood up.]
[As a product of gamma rays, he felt a profound sense of purpose for this moment.]
[Uncertain if he would survive, Natasha's death had deeply affected him.]
[Without further ado, Dr. Banner donned the nanotech gauntlet adorned with all six Infinity Stones!]
