He's in the Marvel universe, and his first step is marrying Scarlet Witch.

Chapter 341 Galactic Crisis (First Update)

Why?

Apart from Groot and Drax, who looked completely bewildered, Star-Lord, Rocket, Gamora, and Nebula all showed expressions of curiosity.

This question had always been on their minds, especially after they fully understood Li Chuan's true strength, but no one took the initiative to ask it.

Li Chuan coughed, and his expression turned serious:

"You all probably know that I know many kinds of magic."

"What is magic?"

Drax looked completely bewildered.

"Something like this."

Li Chuan pointed at the cup in front of Drax, and the cup immediately turned into an inflatable clown monkey.

"Oh, this clown is so cute, I love it!"

Drax's eyes lit up when he saw the inflatable clown monkey in front of him, and he hugged it tightly like a child who had received a favorite toy.

Star-Lord and the others were also taken aback. They thought Drax was the kind of tough guy whose brains were all muscle, but they didn't expect him to have such a naive side.

"Among the magic I've studied, there's a kind of prophetic magic that allows me to see glimpses of the future."

After dealing with Drax, who liked to interrupt, Li Chuan continued:

"And you guys are the ones I'll see in some future scenes, the ones who can save the galaxy from crisis multiple times."

That's why I gathered you all together ahead of time and formed the Guardians of the Galaxy.

Li Chuan certainly didn't know prophetic magic. In the wizarding world, prophetic magic could only be used by prophets who were born with the third eye; it couldn't be learned later in life.

Moreover, such prophecies can only be seen by chance; it's not something you can see whenever you want. Most of the time, you only see fragments or hear certain words.

Grindelwald was a prophet; he successfully predicted the outbreak of World War II and foresaw the power of nuclear weapons created by humankind, which is why he was so determined to exterminate most of humanity.

The wizard Li Chuan inherited did not have a third eye or the ability to predict the future.

But what he said can't really be considered wrong, because in the original storyline, it was indeed Star-Lord and others who formed the Guardians of the Galaxy and saved the galaxy multiple times.

"We, the galaxy, will save it?"

Most people found it hard to believe what Li Chuan said.

Gamora and Nebula were killing machines trained by Thanos from a young age. Now they have betrayed Thanos, but they feel that they have nothing to do with saving the galaxy and are just glad that they don't kill people indiscriminately.

Rocket, on the other hand, only wanted to make more money and live a carefree life with Groot, and also avenge his former comrades. He didn't think he would do anything as noble as saving the galaxy.

Drax, well, he was currently holding his clown monkey and didn't hear a word Li Chuan said.

Only Star-Lord's eyes lit up, and he confidently stood up and said:

"I knew it! I'd become a big shot someday, saving the galaxy. That's definitely something I should be doing!"

And that is indeed the case. Although Star-Lord is unreliable, it is precisely because of him that the members of the Guardians of the Galaxy are brought together.

Therefore, although Star-Lord does not possess the qualities that a normal leader should have, he is still the universally recognized captain.

"Yes, you may not believe it, but this is the outcome of my prediction. Otherwise, to be honest, think about it: how would I, a human being leaving Earth for the first time, know your names?"

Li Chuan nodded firmly, then said with a solemn expression:

"And now, we are heading to the place where the last member is, and this operation is also a true mission to save the safety of the entire galaxy."

Upon hearing Li Chuan's words, everyone immediately focused their attention, including Drax, who was holding the clown monkey.

They all wanted to know what kind of terrifying crisis threatened the safety of the entire galaxy, a crisis that even a powerful figure like Li Chuan, who could easily defeat Ronan, found troublesome.

But at this moment, Li Chuan stopped and looked at Drax:

"Drax, are you feeling sleepy right now?"

"Sleepy? No, I feel very energetic right now."

Drax replied, staring at his clown monkey while holding it.

"No, you're sleepy, you want to sleep now."

Li Chuan pointed at Drax and cast a stun spell. Drax immediately leaned back on the sofa and started snoring.

What follows is not suitable for him to hear.

Seeing the confused looks on everyone's faces, Li Chuan smiled and explained, then continued:

"A long, long time ago, a super brain with self-awareness appeared in the universe. Over millions of years, it developed its own consciousness and learned to control molecules and energy."

Later, he built layers of protection around himself, which eventually evolved into a living planet—the planet Ego, our destination now.

"A living planet with its own consciousness, that's really incredible."

Star-Lord stared wide-eyed. Even after spending so much time in the universe, he had never heard of anything so outrageous.

Li Chuan simply smiled:

"Even more unbelievable is that he also has ambitions. He wants to turn all the planets in the entire universe into his clones and turn all life in the universe into his nourishment to enhance his power."

"But how can he turn all the planets into his clones? The Nova Empire, the Kree Empire, and the Sovereign Empire can't let him do that. Saros Saros, on the other hand, might not object."

Gamora analyzed the situation very rationally.

No matter how powerful Ego is, he can't possibly contend with all the forces in the universe.

Li Chuan raised his hand:

"No rush, let me explain."

He paused for a moment, then continued his explanation:

"In order to silently devour all the planets in the universe, Ego created a human clone for himself and then went to various planets to plant seeds."

Once the seed sprouts, it can devour the entire planet and all life on it, transforming them into its clones.

However, with his power, he naturally couldn't simultaneously stimulate so many seeds to germinate. Therefore, he began to unite with women from various planets, hoping to have a child with the same energy as him, so that they could work together to germinate the seeds.

At this point, he looked at Star-Lord.

"After all the races in the universe had his children, he found a raider named Yondu and paid Yondu to help him bring back his children from various planets."

Unfortunately, none of the children inherited his energy, so he killed them all and buried them on his planet.

Similarly, on my Earth, there is also a child of Ego's who was taken away from Earth by Yondu twenty-three years ago.

Upon hearing this, Star-Lord was completely stunned. Based on his own experiences, he realized that the child Ego had given birth to on Earth, as mentioned by Li Chuan, might be him.
