Chapter 322 Arrival at Vormir, the Soul Gem!
Chapter 322 Arrival at Vormir, the Soul Gem!
On the other side of the portal was the sky restaurant where Christine had disappeared last time, and the person sitting in the same spot, wearing a blue tulle dress, was none other than Christine herself.
The ferocity and coldness that had lingered on Strange's face during the battle vanished the moment he saw Christine, replaced by an extremely gentle smile.
This time, I will not let anyone take you away from me again, no one!
For every person who lives a fulfilling life, there is someone who suffers sorrow.
In a dark sewer in London, space suddenly distorted, and a disheveled figure appeared out of thin air, falling into the filthy sewage mixed with feces and all kinds of garbage!
And this person, naturally, is Casillas, who just escaped from the clutches of our half-black oddity.
Although he escaped, Casillas was in no good shape at the moment!
Not only was he covered in burns, but he also lost an arm, turning him into a comic book version of Yang Guo, the legendary swordsman!
Casillas, using his remaining left hand to brace himself in the damp, filthy sewer, struggled to his feet, letting out a roar of utter hatred:
"Aaaaaaahh ...
"Steve Strange, I'll kill you! And I'll kill that damned Spider-Mania! I'll destroy you all!!!"
As his resentment deepened, black smoke suddenly billowed from Casillas's body. Miraculously, this black smoke healed all his injuries, and even his lost right hand grew back!
However... Casillas's newly grown right hand looks bizarre!
Because it's like a demon's arm that's been skinned and is now just muscle!
Moreover, this arm was an unsettling purplish-black color, constantly oozing a corrosive, murky liquid-gas mixture!
However, Casillas paid no attention to any of that at the moment. He seemed to have heard something, his gaze glazed over, and he stared blankly at the sewer ceiling, muttering to himself:
"You're right, great Dormammu. I alone cannot destroy the three great temples of Earth. I need to find more and more powerful followers for you..."
"List of Believers... Dark Alliance..."
"finally found you.........."
In the boundless universe, a giant spaceship hovered above a colorful planet.
Toby stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window at the very front of the spaceship, looking down at the beautiful planet, a smile of excitement creeping onto his lips.
Because this beautiful planet is home to the Soul Gem, Vormir!
This is also one of only two Infinity Stones out of the six that does not have a container!
It is also a rare Infinity Stone that almost does not cause any side effects!
After all, in the original story, even Hawkeye, an ordinary person, could retrieve the Soul Stone with his bare hands.
If we have to say that the Soul Gem has any side effects, it's that to obtain it, you must make a soul-for-soul deal with the Soul Gem, which means sacrificing a loved one.
This person doesn't necessarily have to be your spouse; your parents or other family members could also work...
But Toby obviously didn't bring Gwen this time, nor did he bring his parents, because he had no intention of trading with the Soul Stone this time!
He's here to rob us!
You won't give it to me?
Heh, do you think you can just refuse to give me, the Spider Bully, what I want?
Moreover, this time, he should be able to kill two birds with one stone!
Toby tilted his head slightly and glanced behind him, as if he could see something through the steel barrier of the spaceship.
It wasn't just a feeling; it was his supermodel-like spider sense that truly detected the 'little mouse' that had followed them all the way here!
However, Toby didn't choose to disturb the little mouse right now, after all, he still needed to use her to catch a "big fish"!
"Land the spaceship and see if we can use the dress stone. If not, we'll try diplomacy first, then force," Toby said calmly.
Yondu immediately nodded and directed the spaceship to descend towards the planet below.
Gamora looked at Toby's left hand, where four Infinity Stones were embedded, with a complex expression on her face.
"If the fifth Infinity Stone really exists here, then if he obtains the last one, he would truly have the power to destroy the entire universe. Is that really true...?"
Upon hearing this, Star-Lord, standing beside her, seemed quite nonchalant: "Whether it's right or wrong, it doesn't really matter, does it?"
"With the captain's strength, he could have obtained all the Infinity Stones even without our help. He gave us the opportunity to follow him, which is actually our good fortune. At least this way we are 'one of his own'~"
Rocket, perched on Groot's shoulders, looked at Gamora with utter disdain:
"I think you're just a busybody, meddling in other people's business. Your strength is the weakest among us, yet you're concerned about the safety of the entire universe!"
Upon hearing this, Groot quickly covered Rocket's mouth with his hand and gave Gamora a gentle, apologetic smile:
"I am Groot..."
The air was silent for several seconds before the slow-witted Drax suddenly burst into laughter, pointing at Gamora and Rocket:
"Hahahaha, this little mouse is saying you're a dog, and if you take it, you're just meddling. It's hilarious, hahahaha!!!"
Rocket was stunned for a moment, then pounced on Drax from Groot's shoulder and began to scratch him violently:
"You're the fucking rat! I've put up with you idiot for far too long, and today I'm going to tear your stinking mouth apart!"
Drax ran while trying to grab the rocket off his body, laughing and shouting:
"Hahaha! Get off me! Don't pull my nipples, they're very sensitive, you talking rat!"
Seeing the two start fighting, Star-Lord and Groot quickly chased after them to break them up.
This turned the descending spaceship's cockpit into a lively dance hall as the group chased after them!
Upon witnessing this 'joyful' scene on his spaceship, Yondu's forehead was covered in layers of black lines.
But when he looked at the new captain Toby, who was standing quietly at the front and had not been affected in the slightest by Star-Lord and the others' noise, he couldn't help but feel sincere admiration!
As expected of a powerful figure capable of instantly killing Ronan, his composure is something that he can't match!
It seems he still has a long way to go compared to true powerhouses!
Toby himself was unaware of Yondu's admiration for him.
He didn't seem to notice the noise from Star-Lord and the others behind him; in fact, he felt a sense of warmth, like he was coming home!
After all, he seems to be unable to escape the curse that his subordinates always cause a ruckus...
Huh, wait!
Something feels off.
There are always people around him who are making trouble. Could it be that the problem isn't with his subordinates, but with him?
Holy crap, I'm the one who attracted the "noisy curse"!
However... Toby smiled slightly as he listened to the lively and noisy sounds around him.
I don't dislike this feeling...
