Opened a martial arts school, and his eldest disciple Batman

Chapter 198 Time Stone
Thor and Loki, who were standing by, were a little surprised at Du Mu's appearance.

Loki immediately went on alert, and Thor recognized Du Mu.

The two men could barely be said to have met once, and Thor was very impressed by this mysterious man who was able to bring Thor's hammer from New Mexico to the sky carrier.

What's more, the other party is the master of the equally mysterious and powerful Banner, which makes Thor unable to forget him even if he wants to.

But then, Thor noticed someone else.

"Thanos!"

Thor's eyes widened with anger and he roared out the name of the person in Du Mu's hand.

Thanos is much taller than Du Mu, so he can be held in Du Mu's hand. Naturally, his posture looks very indecent.

He was almost lying on the ground with his hands hanging limply, and all the stress points of his body were concentrated on the back of his neck where Du Mu was pinching.

This look is as miserable as it can be.

It was also because of this that after Thor's initial anger, he was somewhat confused about the situation.

Odin, who had been oblivious to what was happening outside, slowly opened his eyes when he heard Thor's roar.

Then he saw Thanos who was even more embarrassed than himself.

This scene made Odin freeze in place, unable to utter a word for a long time.

Du Mu ignored the three of them for the time being, and just looked at Gu Yi, asking curiously: "Are you looking forward to meeting me?"

"But, when I first came into this world, you should have known about my existence. Why didn't you come to see me then?"

Gu Yi looked at Du Mu deeply and said, "You probably didn't want to see me at that time, right?"

Du Mu was silent.

Indeed, at that time, facing an existence like Ancient One, I really had no chance of winning.

Of course, self-protection is not a problem. Even if he is locked in the mirror space, he can return to the martial arts hall in an instant. And if he leaves this universe, the time gem will not work on Du Mu, so he is not cautious and dare not cross the line.

On the first day Du Mu came to Marvel, he spent the whole night strolling around New York. In fact, he was waiting to see whether Ancient One would appear in front of him and whether she would ask him, a time traveler, not to come to the Earth she ruled.

Ancient One did not show up the whole night, and Du Mu understood that no matter what the reason, Ancient One did not care about a person from another world like him appearing on Earth. From then on, he no longer cared about Ancient One and went back and forth as he pleased.

It was only because of the existence of the Time Stone behind Thanos' invasion that Du Mu took the initiative to look for Ancient One.

Ancient One continued to explain: "As the Supreme Sorcerer, my main duty is to defend against the invasion of demons from other dimensions. Once they appear, they will devour this area of ​​the Earth and incorporate it into their own dimension."

"The Supreme Sorcerer is not the space police. As long as there is no ill will towards this world, he will not interfere."

Du Mu nodded in understanding.

At this time, Thor on the side couldn't hold back any longer. He really wanted to give face to the Sorcerer Supreme and Banner's master, and wanted to listen respectfully to the conversation between the two.

But the hatred for Asgard's destruction and the pain of his mother's murder made Thor clench his fists and stare at Thanos with anger in his eyes.

Just when he couldn't help but want to ask Du Mu what was going on with Thanos... Du Mu raised his hand, made a strangling gesture, and pinched a piece of air.

Because Du Mu let go of his hand, Thanos fell face first into the mud with a thud.

He slowly curled up his legs, propped up his upper body, knelt on the ground, and looked at the figure gradually emerging in Du Mu's hand with raised eyebrows.

"Loki?"

Thor was stunned and looked at his brother beside him, and found that Loki was still standing there with an expressionless face.

He stretched out his hand and Loki disappeared like smoke.

Loki held a dagger in his hand, his neck was pinched by Du Mu, and he pretended to be elegant and forced a smile: "Sir... Although I don't know who you are, you can't stop a son who wants to avenge his mother, right?"

Du Mu thought about it and realized that this was indeed the truth.

So he released Loki's neck.

After Loki was released, he was slightly stunned. He didn't expect that he could actually gain the other party's forgiveness with just one sentence.

Du Mu said gently: "I have no intention of stopping you from taking revenge, but before that..."

Du Mu looked at Ancient One: "I want to know who used the Time Stone to pass vague information about the future to Thanos, so that Thanos got the three Infinity Stones and came to Earth to kill me."

Upon hearing this, Loki first looked at Ancient One in surprise. He didn't expect that there was another hidden story behind this matter.

But then, he suddenly reacted, staring at Du Mu in shock with wide eyes: "Wait, he once tried to kill you with three Infinity Stones?!"

The second half of the sentence got stuck in his throat and he didn't dare to utter it.

Loki wanted to ask, since Thanos already had three Infinity Stones and wanted to kill you, why haven't you died yet?
But the way he asked the question was too embarrassing, and even though he was extremely shocked, Loki subconsciously did not say it out loud.

Odin also looked at Du Mu deeply.

This is exactly why he fell silent just now.

Thanos, who only possesses the Power Stone, is extremely difficult to deal with.

Even when he exerted his full strength, he was unable to protect Asgard.

The opponent's Titan's physique is too terrifying. He can perfectly control the entire power of the Infinity Stone without any medium.

That kind of purest and most original destructive power in the universe is far greater than Surtur who has obtained the Eternal Fire, and far greater than his own daughter in the underworld.

Just now, he was still considering whether to release Hela and let her kill him to appease his daughter's anger and let her forgive his two younger brothers.

Then the three siblings worked together to find the Reality Stone through the coordinates of the Reality Stone he left behind to fight against Thanos and avenge Asgard and his queen.

The reason why Odin didn't take the Reality Stone himself is very obvious... He didn't have the stone on hand, and it was very likely that Thanos used the Power Stone to forcibly take it away during the process of heading to the Infinity Stone coordinates.

If that happens, there will be really no chance of winning.

Odin never considered letting his children seek revenge on Thanos without the Reality Stone...that would undoubtedly be courting death.

The only chance of victory for the gem holder is that the opponent cannot withstand the power of the gem and finds it difficult to exert its full strength.

Once the gem holder is able to withstand the magnificent force and can freely exert the power of the gem, only gems can fight against gems.

This doesn't even have to do with the size of the power. All the energy and matter in the world are controlled by the gems. Even the material that makes up everyone's body is the same. No matter how strong the game character is, it is impossible to challenge the administrator of the game company who controls the data.

But... the person in front of me...

Odin quickly went over all the gems in his mind.

Thanos has three gems in his hands. The Time Gem is in the hands of the Sorcerer Supreme, Ancient One, and the Reality Gem is hidden by himself, which means that only the Soul Gem is left.

The opponent is Thanos who was defeated by relying on the Soul Stone?

That most mysterious gem actually has such powerful power that just one can increase combat effectiveness to the level of competing with three gems?

As Odin's mind raced, Du Mu nodded and replied to Loki, "Well, luckily he didn't get the Time Stone, so he's a little behind me in terms of speed and can't do any effective damage to me." "At the same time, the three stones put too much pressure on his body. If I succeed in delaying time, his body will collapse in three to five minutes."

I see……

Although it still sounds terrifying, considering that Thanos has three gems, even with the strong physique of a Titan, he will ultimately be unable to withstand the weight of the gems.

Thanos was defeated by his own arrogance. He thought he could perfectly control the power of the three gems, but he couldn't bear it, which became the cause of his defeat.

Odin showed a look of understanding, and Loki also sighed after a moment of silence: "Thanos died because of his own stupidity."

Thanos frowned slightly when he heard this.

He didn't want to be slandered out of thin air, so he sneered: "If it weren't for the Mind Stone, I would have been turned into an idiot by this man's magic."

Just like the guy before.

Speaking of Sebastian, Thanos was still a little shocked.

Taking a being with an extremely strong body, mashing its brain into a paste, and then using it as a weapon. This behavior is very abstract even in the entire galaxy.

Thanos shook his head and continued to sneer: "If it weren't for the Power Stone, he would have come right up and broken my neck."

"If it weren't for the Space Gem, my attacks would never be able to catch up with the opponent, and I wouldn't be able to defend against the opponent's saturation attack for too long."

"If any of these three gems is missing, I will be killed instantly."

"Don't be so naive. The reason why I failed is simply because this man of destruction from another world can gather power from different universes to strengthen himself. He is far more powerful than the Infinity Stones in my hand that can only be used in a single universe. That's all."

Thanos attributed his failure to the fact that the treasures in this universe were inferior to the resources Du Mu had collected in other universes.

This statement is somewhat shameless, because the battlefield between the two is not in another universe, but the home field where the Infinity Stones can exert their full power.

Everyone present, except Thor, naturally noticed this.

The other two, except Ancient One and Thor, showed an expression of disbelief again.

Not relying on the Soul Stone... but relying on pure own strength, he defeated the Three-Stone Thanos?
How is this done?
How can this be?

On the contrary, Thor, after hearing that Du Mu came from another world, immediately stared at Du Mu.

He couldn't even care about Thanos, the enemy who killed his mother.

He suddenly stepped forward and said earnestly, "Mr. Du Mu... do you still remember me? I am from Thor's Hammer... No, I mean, I am Odin's son, my name is Thor."

Du Mu looked at Thor with some surprise, his face full of tension and fear. As an Asgardian, his mental strength was still higher than that of ordinary people. This made Du Mu only able to clearly feel Thor's emotions, but unable to read his inner thoughts specifically.

Thor now felt begging, fear, shrinking, nervousness, panic... all these negative emotions came from what he was going to say to Du Mu next.

But even so, there was still a little, extremely tiny hope that made Thor, who was under such inner pressure, couldn't help but speak to Du Mu and beg in fear and trepidation.

Du Mu probably guessed it, but he couldn't confirm it, so he said to Thor: "Of course I remember you. After all, you are half an acquaintance of Banner."

Thor immediately felt happy. For the first time, he was grateful for his identity besides being the son of Odin and the god of thunder.

In the past, he never thought that he would feel honored and proud to know a Midgardian.

Thor couldn't help but trembled and said, "If you can travel to different universes... can you allow me to be your servant and allow me to find ways to revive life in other universes."

As he spoke, Thor knelt on one knee, lowered his once proud head deeply, and made a servant's salute. He placed his hand on his chest, as if declaring his allegiance.

Seeing this, Du Mu sighed secretly.

Sure enough.

It was indeed for Asgard and his mother.

Well, apart from the death of his family, what else could frighten such a burly man?
Thor's performance made Loki feel a little overwhelmed.

Is this still the big, strong, careless brother who only cares about his own happiness?

However, Du Mu turned his head and looked at Gu Yi.

Seeing that Ancient One looked calm, he couldn't help but ask, "Master Ancient One, if I said I wanted to borrow your Time Stone to revive the dead Asgardians, I'm sure you wouldn't agree, right?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the three people from Asgard couldn't help but look at Ancient One.

The expressions in their eyes were different, but what they all revealed were requests and desires, either obvious or dim.

Facing such a look, Gu Yi shook his head slightly.

Then he stretched out his hand and caught a green gem that fell from the void.

Du Mu's eyes suddenly fixed.

I saw that the green gem was covered with dense cracks.

Rather than calling it a crack, it would be better to say that it is simply a collection of countless broken pieces that have been pieced together again.

Gu Yi's expression finally showed a bit of bitterness: "I would like to agree, but the situation no longer allows it."

As he spoke, Ancient One looked at Du Mu with a complicated look: "When you first appeared on Earth, I tried to use the Time Stone to observe your future."

"And at that moment... a crack appeared in the Infinity Stone."

"My soul was almost immediately sucked into the turbulence of time and space. It took me nearly a month to put the gems back together and finally find my own timeline."

As Gu Yi spoke, he controlled the gem and slowly floated it into Du Mu's hand.

Du Mu felt the broken gem in his hand and could clearly feel the origin of the universe it led to, which was almost the same as other infinity gems.

This is the real Time Stone, not some counterfeit, and it can't even be a Time Stone from another universe.

Because it still seems to be usable... but I'm afraid it can no longer afford the cost of overuse.

Du Mu looked at the Time Stone and understood something.

No wonder the message to Thanos from the future is so vague…

Such a gem would probably explode directly after delivering that message. It is indeed difficult to be unambiguous.

Then the problem is coming.

Why did the Time Stone break?
Just because you observed your own future?

So... can we make a bold guess?

The Time Stone was crushed by my future self?
Du Mu sighed, not knowing how to comment on this matter.

After all, my future self seems to have a bad temper.
