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

Chapter 509 Star-Lord's Capture (First Update)

A few minutes ago, one of the most advanced ships in the Nova Legion of Xandar passed through Earth's atmosphere and arrived over New York.

"Drax, why are they all staring at us?"

Mantis, who was piloting her spaceship, looked through the glass in front of the ship at the humans on the road below taking pictures of them with their phones, and looked at Drax the Destroyer next to her with a puzzled expression.

"Did you activate the spaceship's cloaking device as you instructed?"

"Of course, I already opened it."

Drex's hand, which was stuffing a Zaggoo into his mouth, suddenly stopped in mid-air. He then quietly moved his other hand and pressed the stealth button on the spaceship next to him, putting the spaceship into stealth mode.

Seeing this, Mantis immediately said in an annoyed tone:

"I clearly saw you open it right in front of me!"

"I don't."

Drex looked guilty.

"You have!"

Mantis glared at Drax:

"By the way, I told you to contact the captain beforehand, did you?"

"Oh, I forgot. You must think I'm stupid, right?"

Drax put down the Zag Fruit in his hand, a look of disappointment on his face.

Mandis switched the spaceship to autopilot mode, then stood up and glared angrily at Drax, saying:

"Yes, I think you're hopelessly stupid. The captain specifically instructed us to come to Earth to find him, to try not to make a scene, and to contact him in advance!"

"All right!"

Drax's expression grew even more dejected.

"Never mind, I feel sorry for you every time I see you being so silly."

Upon seeing this, the mantis's anger subsided considerably, and it then raised its hand and placed it on Drax's head to activate its ability.

"Forget everything I just said. You're smart, not stupid."

A moment later, when she withdrew her hand, the look of disappointment on Drax's face had completely disappeared, and he happily ate the Zag fruit again.

Mantis also smiled:

"Drax, contact our former captain Li Chuan immediately and tell him we need to speak with him urgently."

"Leave it to me. Even though Quill and the others have been captured, you still have me."

Drax put down the Zaggoo, patted his chest, and then turned to go to the room inside the spaceship to search for the communicator that Li Chuan had left for them.

In his eyes, Mantis was too ugly to make friends, so he wanted to take extra care of him.

"Okay, I understand. I'll send you a location; just drive the spaceship here."

After sending his location to Drex, Li Chuan hung up the phone.

It turns out that Drax and Mantis came to Earth in their spaceship at this time because Star-Lord, Gamora, Nebula, Rocket, and Groot had all been captured by Thanos, and they came to ask Li Chuan for help in rescuing them.

As for the specific details, Drax couldn't explain them clearly; we'd have to ask Mantis after the spaceship arrived.

"Chuan, can you tell us what's going on?"

Tony looked bewildered after Li Chuan hung up the phone.

Li Chuan didn't hide anything and explained the general situation:

"Remember when the Chitauri invaded Earth? I captured two of their leaders, and then Wanda and I left Earth in a spaceship built with alien technology. Later, we formed the Guardians of the Galaxy."

The reason he hadn't told Tony and the others about his trip to space was that, although he was quite powerful at the time, he couldn't say that he was truly without any worries on Earth.

Now, his strength has increased significantly, and basically as long as he doesn't go to the dimensions of those dimensional demons, there shouldn't be any major problems.

If he were to encounter Mephisto again like last time, he felt he could handle it easily without needing to ask the Ancient One for help.

Therefore, there is no need to hide many things.

"There are so many planets in the universe, and Thanos is incredibly ruthless!"

Tony and Hawkeye were both quite shocked by Li Chuan's experience of traveling to space.

Saul and Banner are alright, though.

As the prince of Asgard and the future king of Asgard, Thor naturally knew about the existence of the universe beyond the Nine Realms, but he rarely went out and had little contact with it.

As for Banner, needless to say, he was originally the chief scientist of the Li Group and had already visited Li Chuan's base outside Earth and had academic exchanges with scientists from Aoge Company.

However, due to a confidentiality agreement, he did not tell the other Avengers about this.

"They're here!"

Just as Li Chuan finished explaining the situation, a spaceship appeared in the sky outside, then deactivated its cloaking and slowly descended.

Indeed, based on the position given to him by Li Chuan, Mantis flew here from New York.

The spaceship's hatch opened, and Mantis and Drax the Destroyer, these two good friends, scurried out.

"Wanda!"

Upon seeing Wanda sitting at the door, Mandis immediately hugged her.

"Long time no see, Mantis."

Wanda was also pleasantly surprised to see Mantis.

At this moment, Li Chuan and the other three, including Tony, also came out of the house.

"Mandis, tell me what happened. Why were Quill and the others captured by Thanos?"

"Captain, here's what happened. That day, we bought equipment in the Void, preparing to head to the next planet to complete our mission."

Next, Mandis recounted the entire process of how Star-Lord and the others were captured by Thanos in detail.

That day, they received a mission to resupply in the infamous Black Market, the Void, but they happened to encounter Thanos and his army attacking the Void.

They originally didn't want to get involved, after all, the Collector, the ruler of the Void, wasn't exactly a good person either, and the two of them were fighting like dogs.

Just as they were about to escape the Void with the others, they unexpectedly discovered that Thanos attacked the Void because the Collector hired the Raiders to retrieve the Orb from Morak.

As for the Cosmic Orb, they had heard Li Chuan mention it and knew it was the Power Stone.

The Power Stone possesses the immense power to destroy planets; if Thanos were to obtain it, it would be an absolute catastrophe for the galaxy.

So the group got together and decided to steal the Orb of Souls before Thanos could.

And so, thanks to Star-Lord's plan, they did indeed manage to obtain the Orb before Thanos could completely defeat the Void Guardians.

Unfortunately, just as they were about to escape the Void with the Orb of the Universe, Thanos discovered them and stopped them.

The two sides immediately engaged in a major battle.

Even though Star-Lord was already proficient in using the power of the gods, he was still no match for Thanos in the end, because Thanos was not alone, but also had his Black Order and countless soldiers.

Helpless, Star-Lord and Gamora had to create a fake Orb to lure Thanos and the others away, while Mantis and Drax secretly took the real Orb to Earth to seek help from Li Chuan.
