Upon hearing this information, not only Tony and Banner were shocked, but even Loki and Thor stared at each other in disbelief.

Star-Lord and his companions had also met the Collector, and they could tell that the Collector was wealthy, but they didn't sense any particularly dangerous aura from him.

However, having lived in the universe for so many years, almost everyone who isn't too lazy to move around has mastered some rather special abilities.

"If there are no mistakes, it should be Igor, a former member of the Council of Elders of the Universe."

Do you know anything more about that Igor?

Upon hearing this, Tony was almost certain that the Star-Lord's father that Kassadin mentioned was Ego.

“Igor, a former member of the Cosmic Elders, once placed a bounty on a bounty organization a million years ago.”

"However, no one answered the bounty later on. It seems that the bounty was transferred to the Star Raiders."

"The matter of being kicked out of the Council of Elders of the Universe caused quite a stir back then, but the specific reasons are still unclear."

"However, according to the Cosmic Elders Council, there are many rumors."

"The most common rumor is that Igor had a very long lifespan, but he was already on the verge of death 100,000 years ago."

"That's why they were kicked out of the Council of Elders of the Universe; there have been similar cases in the past."

After thinking for a moment, Lacey offered some information that she knew.

After all, the Cosmic Elders are a bunch of old fogies, so it's not surprising that an old guy whose lifespan is about to end is kicked out of the organization.

As someone who had been inside the bounty hunter organization's intelligence system, Lacey was aware of almost all sorts of information.

Ego was a big boss who used to post bounties for bounty hunters, so there are records of that.

"Was it said that he was going to die 100,000 years ago?"

"But he shouldn't be dead yet, right?"

When Tony heard about the time span of 100,000 years, he truly felt the innate differences between the beings in the universe and looked at Yondu.

"No, I met Igor in person at least more than ten years ago."

"His hair and beard have indeed turned white, and he certainly looks no younger, but it is certain that he is not dead."

Yondu felt Tony Stark's gaze, nodded, and spoke.

"Any other information, such as his strength or nickname?"

Star-Lord was somewhat shocked by the terrifying power of his biological father's bloodline, but he wanted to know more.

"That's all I know. If there's nothing else, I'll hang up now."

Lacey glanced at Star-Lord without answering, then looked at Tony and said something.

She now only shows a friendly attitude to members of the Void God Cult, and ignores everyone else.

"Yes, providing this is already quite useful."

"You go ahead with your work, we can have dinner together next time."

Tony nodded upon hearing this.

Lacey's communication was immediately cut off.

"It's now almost certain that your father, Igor, is the same Igor who was the former member of the Council of Elders that Lacey just mentioned."

"It's also certain that you possess a special power within you, but we don't know how to awaken it."

"Do you want to avenge your mother, sever this father-son relationship, or something else?"

"Think about revenge after you figure out how to awaken your powers."

"Although I don't know exactly how strong that Igor is, an old monster that can live for millions of years should be beyond your current ability to deal with."

Tony looked at Star-Lord's angry eyes, patted Star-Lord on the shoulder, and said slowly.

Chapter 389 I Can't Help You

After Star-Lord learns that his father is a scumbag who abandoned his family and slept with women all over the universe, he...

He definitely wants to avenge his mother, but given Star-Lord's current abilities, it's impossible for him to accomplish that.

After all, according to Lord Kassadin, the God of the Void, he was a top-tier powerhouse in the universe.

So Tony tried his best to calm Star-Lord's angry and restless heart.

Lest this foolish child, before even awakening his powers, gets blinded by anger and rushes in to his doom.

"If life was about to end 100,000 years ago, but it is still alive today."

"He must have found a way to prolong his life."

Loki, after considering the matter of Ego being expelled from the Council of Elders 100,000 years ago, spoke up.

"Devouring one's own bloodline or something?"

Upon hearing Loki's words and combining them with the information he had gathered, Thor already had some guesses in his mind.

"It's pretty much true. Otherwise, there's no other reason for someone who likes to sow seeds all over the universe but never takes responsibility to ask someone to bring their child back."

"Kid, don't be stupid enough to just go up there and deliver yourself."

Loki nodded slightly upon hearing this, then looked at Star-Lord and gave him a warning.

How can I awaken the power within me?

Upon hearing this, Star-Lord thought of his father, whom his mother had longed for until her death, and realized he was such a scoundrel. He felt immense anger, clenched his fists, and asked.

"How do we know that you are a hybrid of human and god, and not a truly pure bloodline?"

"Otherwise, you should have been born with incredibly terrifying power."

"Judging from your bone age, you are at most around thirty years old."

"At this age, one is considered to have lived half a lifetime."

"But in Asgard, you're still just a little kid with nothing but hair."

"Not to mention your biological father could live for millions of years, and you might still be a baby right now."

"Therefore, there is no method that can guarantee your awakening."

"Unless you go directly to your father, you might get some inspiration and then awaken."

"But if you go to your father, it will be like a lamb entering a tiger's den."

Loki spread his hands and said.

He now knows that Star-Lord has tremendous potential, but if Star-Lord doesn't awaken it, then it's useless.

So Loki isn't so incomprehensible after all.

Star-Lord has enormous potential, but it will take a long time for him to awaken and grow.

Ultimately, they should be able to reach the level of the strongest beings in the universe; they don't possess such great power just by awakening.

However, it is certain that although Star-Lord is a half-human, half-god, even if he cannot awaken his powers from birth, he cannot fully inherit that long lifespan.

However, Star-Lord's lifespan is at least in the hundreds of thousands of years.

Even if one's bloodline is not pure but mixed, it is not difficult to inherit a fraction of the lifespan of someone with a powerful bloodline.

"So, if I want revenge, I just have to wait forever?"

Star-Lord felt a surge of resentment upon hearing Loki's words, but he also realized that Loki's point was valid.

He is already considered an adult among humans, but if lifespan is measured in millions of years, he is still just a baby.

How can a baby who is not yet fully grown awaken the power within them?

“It’s not impossible, after all, your biological father was kicked out of the Council of Elders of the Universe a hundred thousand years ago.”

"Even if a way to prolong life is found, it is definitely not a long-term solution, and my lifespan is probably not much longer now."

Loki smiled and said upon hearing this.

Unless Ego joins the Cult of the Void and relies on the power of the Void, it will not be a long-term solution.

If they simply wanted to prolong their lives, Asgard had ways to do so; there were plenty of evil spells in dark magic.

However, most dark magic is unconventional and evil.

People need face, trees need bark; even a god wouldn't ruin their reputation just to survive.

That's why Odin, the father, chose to join the Void only after negotiating terms with the Void God, Kassadin.

Although Asgard has joined the Void, its autonomy remains, and the father's prestige is still intact; this is the difference in the continuation of life.

"How can you expect me to wait for news that won't arrive for who knows how long?!"

Star-Lord responded immediately upon hearing Loki's words.

"Otherwise, if you were to awaken your power, there's a slight chance you could kill your father."

"However, without your awakening, it is completely impossible for you to kill your father with your own hands."

"Live well, your time to be strong is in the future."

"The premise is that you can live to that time. After all, right now you are only slightly stronger than an ordinary person on Xandar."

Seeing Star-Lord's angry expression, Loki didn't care at all and just smiled.

After Star-Lord spent thousands of years growing before successfully awakening, he had already become a top-tier powerhouse by relying on his evolutionary abilities gained from joining the void.

Therefore, Loki had absolutely no jealousy towards Star-Lord's potential.

Having potential within oneself and truly awakening to gain power are completely different concepts.

The former refers to someone who has never possessed such power, while the latter refers to someone who has already been able to rely on their strength to make a significant impact.

"Although his words were harsh, it is an indisputable fact."

"However, that doesn't mean there's no possibility of revenge, so Peter calmed down."

Gamora received some things today that she had never known before, and she was very shocked. However, seeing Peter's appearance, she reached out and cupped Peter's face in her hands, making Peter look at her.

She also wanted to kill her adoptive father Thanos, even though she knew it would be extremely difficult, but she would still try to find a way.

"What would happen if this guy joined the Void?"
