Collapsing, the whole class turned into aliens upon waking up

"What's wrong, Hua?"

Alicia, sitting by the hospital bed, noticed Hua's thoughtful expression. Hua, however, had no intention of hiding anything at this moment: "The Shadow of the Phoenix... I know what it is."

Even with the Trinity Summoning Technique, the Phoenix Power I can summon is not in its full form. To increase my chances of defeating the fairies, I might need to find a way to reclaim the Phoenix Yin.

With that in mind, she decided to first tell her companions about the information she had received earlier.

In the Land of the Past, while Hua was explaining the Phoenix's Shadow, Shigure Kira and Nicholas on the screen also began their plan against Igor.

"If we want to take action against Ego, the power of the Cosmic Orb might be the key. It's time for us to show off the Cosmic Orb that we finally found. Let's prepare to head to our treasure trove, Xandar."

Shiyu Kira said this to Nicholas, looking at the vast starry sky before her, she was ready to start the Starlight.

The Cosmic Orb is on Xandar!

At that moment, Kiana subconsciously memorized the name. Although she had just arrived while asking about the location of the Cosmic Orb, she figured she would find out soon enough, even without using the viewing space.

“We need more power. The Symbiote God conveyed a message to me through the All-Black Necromancer Sword: if the ritual is fulfilled, He can be summoned into reality for a short period of time.”

However, He is currently clashing with the Black Death Emperor in the world of death, so it's best not to interfere unless absolutely necessary. But this tactic can be considered one of our trump cards.

Shigure Kira, whose time is somewhat later than the present, said this. Upon hearing this, the jackal in the viewing space felt that the Hughes clan was indeed extraordinary, as their gods were able to clash with the Black Death Emperor in the world of death.

Jackal himself knew what the Black Death Emperor was.

"Well, let's prepare for the jump first. The power of the cosmic orb will probably achieve quite good results in this battle of defiance for survival."

Shiyu Qiluo watched as Nicholas forced a composed expression, as if the mere Igor could be destroyed with a flick of his finger.

Honkai Impact 2: Chapter 902: The Fall of Xandar, Ebony Maw, the Black Tongue Strategist

As the engines ignited and the course was anchored, the Starlight began its leap, and a bizarre and fantastical scene unfolded before the eyes of everyone in the viewing space.

However, the first scene that everyone saw when they arrived at their destination was unexpected.

A desolate starry sky, a shattered planet.

The traces of Xandar's former civilization seem to have been completely erased, and the planet itself appears to have been struck by some powerful attack, leaving only one-fifth of its original size.

This planet is dead.

Dark red and pitch black are the colors that this planet appears to have from a cosmic perspective; all its former glory has vanished without a trace.

Shigure Kira and her group seemed to realize the seriousness of the matter immediately. Salome's pupils suddenly contracted and her face turned pale as she looked at the scene in front of her, as if she was recalling something she didn't want to remember.

"What... exactly happened here?"

Looking at the scorched earth of Xandar, Shub on the screen swallowed hard, her voice filled with fear.

"Xandar...is destroyed."

Patrick stated the reality before them, saying what everyone should realize at this moment.

"No matter what happened, I will never forgive the guy who did this."

AI, enter Xandar's Fifth Trading Port!

Shigure Kira slammed her fist on the control panel and said through gritted teeth.

Following the captain's instructions, the Starlight began its journey toward the dead planet.

However, the final destination was completely different from the scenery I had seen before.

The ruins collapsed on the scorched earth testify to the former prosperity of this place. At this moment, Shiyu Qiluo looked at everything that was happening in front of her with a grim expression.

"Xandar... has been annihilated! Who was behind this?!"

At this moment, Shigure Kira gritted her teeth, unable to suppress her anger. An entire planet, billions of intelligent life forms, now only the ruins of these cities remain.

"Hmm...so, he is your father?"

At this moment, an uncertain voice rang out, and Shigure Kira subconsciously looked towards the direction from which the voice came. A somewhat withered figure floated in mid-air, gracefully observing everything before him.

"You are... Ebony Maw."

Looking at the figure before her, Shigure Kira pondered for a moment before asking this question.

"Looks like we've been recognized."

Ebony Maw made no attempt to conceal his identity, while Shub placed her hand on Shigure Kira's shoulder: "Kira, being blinded by anger in battle is quite dangerous."

Nicholas's left hand held the Emperor's Declaration, and although his right hand couldn't fully unleash its power, its excellent base stats still allowed it to exert considerable strength. The all-black Necromancer's Sword was entangled by a substance that blended black and green.

The Hughes are not human; these substances are also part of Nicholas's body.

"How could we not know the famous Black Tongue strategist?"

The Emperor Sword gleamed with a cold light, eager to drink the blood of a powerful foe. The Black Sword, as black as ink, seemed to devour the light. Nicholas, wielding two formidable weapons, was ready to fight Ebony Maw.

At this moment, Kiana finally recovered from the destruction of civilization and said without hesitation, "Shigure Kira's father, Igor, is a complete bastard."

Now that he knows this future, he will stake Mebius's reputation on it and make sure it never happens again!

"Black Tongue Strategist? It seems this Ebony Throat is quite skilled at using his tongue."

Upon hearing this nickname, Raven quickly considered what to do in this situation: should it first try to control or interfere using the power of the Reiblood aliens, or should it release the disc creatures to recuperate and wait for an opportunity?

As Raven fell into thought, the others in the viewing area instantly became much more wary of Igor.

Jackal stared intently at the screen. Compared to a hero like Kiana, this being who didn't hesitate to carry out an extermination massacre of an entire planet was far more threatening.

Want to know why this planet suffered this catastrophe?

Ebony Maw's voice rang out slowly and calmly, possessing a unique elegance characteristic of villains.

"Stop talking!"

The response to Ebony Maw was a slash from Nicholas's twin swords.

He dodged Nicholas's attack by sidestepping, and when faced with Shub, who was wielding a giant axe and was close behind, he simply raised his hand.

An unseen force halted Shub's attack, and Ebony Maw, his voice turning somber, revealed the truth: "It's all because of you, Star-Lord."

Because... you brought the Infinity Stone that person wanted to this planet.

Ah, the Sphere of the Universe, or the Power Stone—even I am captivated by the power it contains.

Ebony Maw's voice slowly rang out, while Shigure Kira raised her gun with a cold expression and aimed it at Ebony Maw: "This news may indeed have an impact on me, but don't underestimate the professional ethics of Shigure Kira, a well-known bandit in the galaxy."

In battle, do not let external distractions cloud your mind and create openings; this is a fundamental skill for any soldier.

Shigure Kira pulled the trigger, and the bullet froze in mid-air, whizzing past Shub, who was swinging her battle axe with all her might, preparing to break through Ebony Maw's barrier.

When the bullet was blocked by the invisible barrier of mental force, it suddenly exploded in the next instant, scattering its impact in all directions.

Thanks to the impact of the bullet, Shub recovered from that awkward state. She got up from the fall and dusted off her clothes, looking at Ebony Maw not far away with a solemn expression.

"You've become weaker."

Without hesitation, he uttered this comment, as if in Ebony Maw's eyes, the current Shub was vastly different in power from the one she once possessed.

"Your power is also abnormal."

Having somehow acquired a monocle, Shigure Kira looked at the data reflected in it and spoke thus. Turning her gaze to Shub beside her, and struggling to suppress her anger at the planet's scorched earth, Shigure Kira said:

"Hey, our enemy, who used unknown methods to enhance his power, is not someone we can defeat alone. But don't forget who we are!"

Shigure Kira's voice gradually grew louder, and at the same time, she casually played background music, and her companions responded one after another.

"A legendary team renowned throughout the world!"

"A notorious and ruthless villain in the galaxy!"

"A mercenary group that will stop at nothing!"

"The Galaxy's Notorious Bounty Hunters Unite!"

"Ahem, everyone, I think our reputation can still be salvaged!"

While talking, Shigure Kira's companions seemed to inexplicably get fired up, and the Honkai-version Guardians of the Galaxy and the epic-enhanced Ebony Maw started their battle.

Honkai Impact 2: Chapter 903: As expected of a notorious bandit gang in the universe, their methods are indeed vicious!

"Has he completely degenerated into a hot-blooded fool? Words are not very effective against this kind of enemy."

However, my strength is beyond your reach.

As Ebony Maw spoke, he began to perform a series of elaborate maneuvers. This black-tongued strategist's fighting style could only be described as art. However, Shi Yuqiluo and her group were no ordinary people either.

Cecilia looked thoughtful as she stared at the screen.

Are Shigure Kira and the others cosplaying?

Their ruthless and infamous methods are not something those kids would do.

On the screen, Ebony Maw was gradually losing ground in the battle.

Although Ebony Maw's strength was temporarily boosted thanks to the contingency plans left by Thanos, he was fundamentally incapable of fighting the entire Guardians of the Galaxy alone.

The Guardians of the Galaxy's power levels in the movie are based on the comic book version, but their origins are rather complicated. Shigure Kira has different origins in both the movie and comic book versions. As for why this is the case... well, it's all about the omnipotent universe reboot.

The Guardians of the Galaxy are quite powerful. In some situations, Shub's original form could even go toe-to-toe with Thanos. They were destined to be Thanos's formidable enemies.

Although the Black Tongue Strategist was slightly at a disadvantage against the group's attacks, defeating him in the short term would not be difficult.

Patrick felt he needed some underhanded tactics, so he tapped the air rapidly with his fingers. A moment later, Patrick, who was originally providing remote fire support, looked at the screen that only he could see and spoke.

"There's no useful information in your terminal at all. It seems like it'll be hard to find the weakness in your data terminal."

Upon hearing this, Ebony Maw said calmly, "I have no weaknesses. I am a perfect being. There is no need for me to make a futile struggle."

Ebony Maw certainly has weaknesses, but he has no intention of revealing them to the group of guys in front of him who are his enemies during the battle.

Since we can't find any weaknesses, we can try psychological tactics instead.

“Our gang has always been ruthless, but I, Patrick, am an exception. Compared to my teammates, who each have their own unique skills, my hobby is quite ordinary: helping ordinary people become famous.”

The infamous Black Tongue Strategist's browsing history has been completely exposed! I think this major news will definitely make the Interstellar Daily... No need to be polite, even if you're an enemy, I'm willing to let you experience the feeling of fame.

Patrick tried to win him over psychologically, but she chose the wrong opponent; this tactic was completely ineffective against Ebony Maw.

"Good, what a vicious method!"

However, in the viewing area, Kiana seemed quite frightened at this moment.

"Kiana, you weren't secretly looking at anything weird, were you?"

Looking at Kiana at this moment, Mei subconsciously asked a question.

Cecilia chimed in, "It's normal for a kid Kiana's age to have some strange browsing history, don't worry, Mommy won't mind~"

"No, no! Hehe, absolutely not."

Kiana puffed out her chest, looking quite self-righteous, and said, "Ahem, do you think you're the kind of person who's attracted to good-looking men?"

Kiana doesn't like silent women! Yes, that's Mei for you!

Bronya took it as fact and believed it.

Bronya, who knew her roommate's situation perfectly, spoke in a tone of complete knowledge of the truth, while Ebony Maw on the screen uttered words that sent a chill down Kiana's spine.

This Ebony Throat is terrifying!

On the screen, Ebony Maw said calmly, "Thank you very much. By the way, could you also spread the browsing history of my companions to Starsea?"

"Becoming famous would be perfect for promoting the ideas of my Lord."

Good, so calm!

It doesn't look fake.

At this moment, Ebony Maw on the screen still maintained an elegant demeanor. Cheng Lixue, who was controlling the plants to try to bind Ebony Maw, casually remarked, "The source of your power, could it be the Infinity Stones?"

"It is related to the Infinity Stones, but it is not the Power Stone that you stole."

Oh, by the way, just a heads-up, my mission is complete. Now... the team transporting the Power Gem has probably already completed their jump.

"Your navigation equipment really needs an upgrade. The warships we used to invade this planet are relics from a previous era, not capital ships. You couldn't even detect their cloaking mode! How many versions behind are you?"

Ebony Maw said calmly that his mission was now complete.

If he were to assess his own strength, Ebony Maw wouldn't be confident that he could hold off all of these guys in front of him. Fortunately, as he expected, they chose to gang up on him.

"It's alright, we'll use you as a hostage in exchange for the Power Gem."

As Shub spoke, she swiftly swung her giant axe, her power being an extremely dazzling presence even in the vast universe.

"That's really foolish. I don't think such an obviously unequal deal is suitable to continue."
