Chapter 173 These Earthlings Are Absurdly Strong

Inside the Pegasus Base, the energy of the Cosmic Cube is constantly rising, showing no signs of stopping.

Four hours later, the terrifying energy fluctuations finally reached an extreme value.

A massive amount of energy gathered outside the blue cosmic cube, slowly rotating and condensing.

After reaching a critical point, a blue beam of light shot out from inside the Rubik's Cube, striking the energy gathering device twenty meters away and breaking through a spatial barrier.

As a figure emerged from within, the spatial barrier vanished instantly.

Looking at the figure that emerged from it, everyone present was certain that this guy was definitely not human.

Its slender figure, elegant demeanor, withered skin, and pale hair... all these features clearly distinguish it from humans.

"This is... Ebony Maw, isn't it Thanos?" At the same time, a hint of disappointment flashed in Bai Ye's eyes as he watched the scene through the surveillance cameras.

Sending this piece of trash is a complete waste of his time.

"This is it..." Stark's eyes also flashed with surprise. He thought it was the army that had come, but it turned out to be aliens that looked like stick insects.

"What should we do? Kill them?" Stark asked.

"No, don't kill him yet. His goal is to get the Space Stone, then open a portal to bring the Chitauri from the other side of the universe to rule Earth, and at the same time hand over the Infinity Stones to his master Thanos."

"In that case, let's help him complete the mission." Bai Ye grinned. If Thanos won't come, then he will.

With the current lineup of Earthlings—mutants, superheroes with superpowers, and the advanced technology of Pym Particles—even without their own participation, it's not impossible to defeat the movie version of Thanos.

Once Thanos arrives on Earth, he'll find that these Earthlings are ridiculously strong!

Stark was somewhat annoyed: "So, you're just going to let this stick insect cause trouble right under our noses? He clearly has the ability, yet we deliberately let him go?"

"Of course not. We can just capture him and have Professor X mind control him to work for us. Why make it so complicated?"

"The rest is up to you. Let me know when the portal opens." After saying that, Bai Ye turned around and continued his research with Reed, preparing to develop a superpower reversal machine as soon as possible.

Following Bai Ye's instructions, Kingpin and his two companions chuckled maliciously: "That guy has the Mind Stone; Professor X can't control him directly. Who should go first?"

"Anyway, there's no need to hold back. Just let your Demon Team members go. You guys are professionals in this area," Stark said to Kingpin.

At the scene, several researchers who remained behind saw someone emerge from the space tunnel and immediately tried to resist.

But Ebony Maw simply waved his hand gracefully, and the steel ground beneath his feet shattered instantly, with earth and rocks rising out of thin air, enveloping the group completely before pulling them in front of him.

The scepter inlaid with the Mind Gem gently touched the chests of the group, and their eyes were immediately filled with darkness, as if they were all under the control of the mind.

"They're just a bunch of weak mortals." A hint of disdain flashed in Ebony Maw's eyes.

A moment later, as his mind was taken over, the people in front of him immediately shouted, "Master, run! Don't come back!"

Ebony Throat: ? ? ?

"What do you mean?" he asked, puzzled, not understanding why these people were acting so crazy.

"You've never been to Earth, you don't understand. The entire Earth is now under our control," a researcher said.

Another person added, "He is incredibly strong and as fast as lightning."

"He was ruthless and killed without hesitation!"

"His martial arts skills are unparalleled; no one can rival him!"

Ebony Throat was dumbfounded as he watched the guys in front of him reciting the menu one after another. How could they talk so fluently?

"He is our supreme emperor!" Another voice came from afar. Ebony Hou turned around and saw a dozen people with different appearances and clothes walking over side by side with their hands in their pockets.

"And who are they?" Ebony Maw asked the manipulated researchers.

"The people walking towards you are the mayor of New York City, the sheriff of Washington, D.C., the governor of Alaska..." a researcher replied, "but I heard that they weren't exactly good people before they were recruited."

"Run, Master. Even if you defeat these dozen or so, the endless troubles of the law enforcement team's superhero combination and the mutant alliance await you."

"Even if you defeat everyone, once Bai Ye notices this place and makes a move, you're doomed." The researcher cried as he pleaded, truly not wanting his master to die here.

Ebony Maw impatiently tossed the researchers aside, thinking they were acting crazy. The Asgardians had all fled; what danger could such a small planet like Earth pose?

Not far away, a dozen or so members of the Demon Squad had already surrounded Ebony Maw.

One of the researchers who was being restrained tried to stop them, but Bullseye kicked him mercilessly, sending him flying and spitting blood.

Bullseye pointed at Ebony Maw and said, "Trying to run? Where can you run to?"

"Hmph, arrogant Earthlings." Ebony Maw sneered. The ground beneath his feet began to shake, and countless steel spikes shot out in all directions, but he easily dodged them.

"Lightning Whirlwind Slash." Tombstone snorted coldly, and a rich golden light appeared on his left hand as he slashed down with his palm.

Seeing the palm strike tear through the air with ease, cutting through gold and jade with effortless ease, Ebony Maw hurriedly built a steel wall in front of him to defend himself, but a cold voice came from behind him.

"Lightning Dragon Drill!"

Ebony Maw was struck as if by lightning, spitting out blood as it flew through the air, its back charred black.

Before he could catch his breath, Bullseye's dart, imbued with internal energy, came hurtling toward his heart, startling him so much that he rolled over and dodged it.

Everyone present had practiced Bai Ye's "Everyone Has Merit Practice 3.0" and possessed profound internal strength.

Perhaps he would be slightly outmatched when facing Ebony Maw alone, but in a situation with more than a dozen opponents, he only lasted a short while before being injured, exhausted, and on the verge of death.

In this situation, seizing an opening, Ebony Maw used steel to shield the puzzle piece in front of him and threatened, "Don't move, or I'll kill him."

"Lightning Thunder Fist!"

No one paid him any attention. When Ebony Maw stopped, Victor did not hesitate at all. Thick bolts of lightning lit up his fist, and his arm instantly pierced through the puzzle piece's abdomen. He then sent Ebony Maw flying, and he fell to the ground unconscious.

Before his consciousness faded, Ebony Maw watched as Victor stepped over the puzzle piece and walked toward them, sneering, "You captured him, so why should we stay put?"
