Marvel's Superman

Chapter 271 - 268 Future Ending, Binary Mode.

'What's going on?'

The superheroes looked stunned.

Thor, in particular, had his eyes wide, full of confusion.

He clearly chopped off the opponent's head just now, but the result was like going back in time.

The headless corpse disappeared, and the dilapidated thatched hut also returned intact.

As if nothing had happened!

"Aether particles!"

After 2 seconds, Thor suddenly realized.

"Those are distorted illusions! Thanos is still alive!"

He immediately issued a warning, and the superheroes who had relaxed a bit became nervous.

Iron Man erected an alloy square shield to protect Black Widow and Rocket Raccoon behind him.

Banner piloted the Hulkbuster, opened the energy cannon in both hands, and started to accumulate power.

Thor and Captain Marvel were the two strongest fighting forces.

One clenched the Stormbreaker, and the other raised her fists.

The atmosphere suddenly condensed like ice, but Luke, who pierced Thanos's illusion, looked calm and stared at Thanos, who appeared out of thin air.

The rich red light rippling like water waves was the brilliance of the Reality Stone.

It was also called the Aether particle, which was once the ultimate weapon relied on by the Dark Elves.

In Thor's second movie, Thor defeated Malekith and handed the Aether particle to Tivan, the Collector.

He thought that Taneleer Tivan, as an elder of the universe, would never lose his collection.

But now, Knowhere had been destroyed and reduced to ruins.

The Reality Stone naturally fell into Thanos's hands.

"What a quick response, Asgardian."

Thanos said in a jarring voice of praise.

He raised his left hand. The Infinity Gauntlet cast in gold was glowing red.

Everything that happened just now was just an illusion created by distorting reality with the help of the Reality Stone.

"Oh, there's a new face this time. Aren't you going to introduce yourself?"

Thanos ignored Thor's hatred-filled eyes and instead looked at Luke, who saw through the illusion.

"People on our side like to call me 'Superman', and some people call me 'General', 'Director' and 'Great Hero'. If they're known friends, most of them will call me by my first name -- unfortunately, I don't know you very well."

Luke raised his eyebrows. As he had guessed, the butterfly's wings caused subtle changes.

Coming to this Garden planet where Thanos came to retire in advance and rescuing Iron Man, Tony Stark, ahead of time, the original plot had become completely different.

The overlord who wiped out half of life in the universe hadn't destroyed the Infinity Stones yet.

Not only that, but it seemed that his injuries had also healed.

Originally, he was almost split in half by Thor with the Stormbreaker, but now, it looked like traces of it weren't even left behind.

Full of energy and in perfect condition!

He's a strong opponent!

"The strength of the Infinity Stones lies in the fact that they produced the six singularities. So even if you are a legendary master skilled in illusionary magic, it's difficult to detect the flaws."

Thanos asked modestly. He seemed to be very interested in Luke.

In order to get those six Infinity Stones, this cosmic overlord had done meticulous homework.

The Avengers, Asgard, the Allfather Odin, the Sorcerer Supreme of Kamar Taj …

Most of the superheroes on earth were well known to Thanos.

He even had a certain understanding of Captain Marvel, who only appeared briefly.

A lot of information and intelligence were provided by Loki, a guy who liked to play tricks.

The second prince of Asgard in those days was a standard bandwagoner.

But 'Superman' was beyond Thanos's understanding.

To be precise, he hadn't even heard of this name.

"Partly by intuition, partly by… guessing."

Luke answered honestly.

He just thought that it wasn't that simple.

If Thanos destroyed the Infinity Stones, Banner should have detected a strong reaction from the cosmic energy.

But the latter's instrument didn't sound like an alarm.

When the superheroes beat Thanos and found that the Infinity Stones had disappeared, Luke noticed something was wrong.

There was no explosive reaction of cosmic energy, which proved that the Infinity Stones still existed.

But Thanos said that he destroyed the six stones, and then Thor waved his axe and cut off his head.

Everything seemed to be staged according to the script. It was too perfect.

This made Luke's heart inevitably generate a trace of doubt.

"So, what you just said just now, was just a trick to lure me out?"

Thanos wasn't angry. He smiled and said, "That was a smart move. I originally wanted you to meet a silent, painless, unresisting death."

"Now, it seems that you can only face the cruel reality, taste the despair, and finally die with regret and reluctance!"

The overlord of the universe spoke calmly, without the slightest killing intent in his eyes, as if he were just saying an established fact.

But every word made people feel a deep chill at the bottom of their hearts.

"Before we accept this ending, can I ask you a question? Think of it as an exchange for answering your question. How about it?"

Luke took a step sideways and stood in front of the superheroes.

The Avengers, who had been stone-faced and ready to fight, stopped in their tracks.

Their trust in Luke had increased by one point, compared to before.

If it weren't for the reminder of the other party, how would they be able to trick Thanos to come out?

These superheroes might have died in vain. They didn't even have the qualifications to face the enemy.

"That is fair. What do you want to ask, Superman?"

Thanos asked lightly.

He clenched the Infinity Gauntlet on his left hand. He already felt he had won.

"How did you discover us? When Carol broke through the atmosphere? Or when we approached this thatched hut and made a noise that alerted you?"

Luke's eyes flashed as he asked out loud.

He wanted to know why Thanos didn't follow the plot but made preparations in advance.

"Wonderful questions."

Thanos nodded with satisfaction, and a smile appeared on the purple face.

"What do you think was going on just now? Was it an illusion from the Reality Stone?"

"No, that was fate! It was the future!"

Hearing Thanos say so, the superheroes looked at each other, puzzled.

So, Thor chopping off the head of the ugly purple potato was actually a predetermined future?

"I did have the idea of destroying the Infinity Stones. After I had achieved my mission, they would be of no use to me and would only lead to unnecessary strife and confusion. They would only give you illusions that you could recover from your failure."

Thanos turned sideways slightly, looking at the vast fields where his favorite fruits were planted.

A long time ago, the Titans had such fruits everywhere.

Large swaths of farmland, the breeze blowing, moving the low bushes.

However, Titan was gone.

The rich farmland was also destroyed by war.

"Just as I was preparing to do this, an idea suddenly came up in my heart, and a voice came out in my mind…"

Thanos condensed his recalled thoughts, and his eyes became cold.

"Was this the ending I hoped for? When I snap this finger, will the universe move towards peace? Will bloodshed and sacrifices, wars and struggles, all be eliminated?"

"This puzzling question, like a seed, took root and thrived in my heart after it came out."

"It was difficult to contain, just like Pandora's Box being opened, releasing many messy thoughts, which made me start thinking."

"Finally, in order to solve my confusion, I decided to follow this timeline and go to the future!"

Luke frowned and stretched out.

His doubts were answered, and he knew the changes caused by the butterfly effect.

Thanos used the Time Stone to see his own ending.

The superheroes wanted to rewrite reality, but the other party wanted to reverse the future!

Both sides were trying to change things!

This was ultimately the cause of all this!

"As you have experienced, I destroyed the six Infinity Stones in the next 20 days, which cost me half my life."

"Then, when I was at my weakest, you came to me, and the Asgardian would cut off my head with an axe."

"This is my end! The future is dark, and there are no other scenes."

Thanos sighed; the purple potato-like face showed regret.

In the future, he saw, he didn't live the idyllic life he dreamed of.

As long as these superheroes were alive, they wouldn't give up fighting and struggling.

So, Thanos figured it out.

In addition to wiping out half the life of the universe in an absolutely fair and random manner.

He also wanted to destroy the Avengers and nip these unstable factors in the bud!

"Now, are you ready for death?"

Thanos raised his left hand, and the six precious stones gleamed brightly, emitting a charming light.

Boom!

Captain Marvel took the lead and jumped out of the crowd.

She directly turned on her Binary form, and her whole body looked luminous.

An incredibly powerful photon cannon blasted straight out, tearing through the air in its path.

Thanos was unable to dodge, and the extremely tall Titan body retreated a few steps. His snap was interrupted.

"Are you ready to meet death again?"

Carol rushed towards the other party. She returned the original words, and at the same time, threw the terrifying power in her fist towards him.

"You're not enough!"

Thanos opened his palm and blocked the punch.

The powerful force bombarded his body, making him grunt.

Even he had the body of an Eternal, extraordinary and strong; it still felt a little overwhelming.

When Captain Marvel opened her Binary mode, she would continuously absorb cosmic energy and quickly transform it into her own power.

With this blow, even the Empire State Building would collapse.

This showed how much power was put into it.

"Give it a try!"

Carol's blonde hair was scattered and rose upward as if gravity had lost its effect on her.

The pair of fists wrapped in balls of dazzling light would make an offensive explosion every time they were thrown.

The vast fields were like facing a huge tornado, with broken branches and dust flying around.

Thanos' eyes were slightly cold. The last time he landed on earth, he had never encountered such a powerful opponent.

"Carol Danvers - Finally, someone who can lift up my spirits."

The cosmic overlord didn't panic while facing close combat. Before he could beat Hulk down with a set of punches, so naturally, he wouldn't be afraid of Captain Marvel.

The left hand held the terrifying fist. As the right hand clenched, the gauntlet closed, and a purple light burst out!

The Power Stone released majestic energy, like a giant hammer striking Carol.

Rumble!

The latter left a streak of shadow as she penetrated the mountain behind her.

Her body was embedded in the thick rock wall, stamping out a deep outline.

Before Thanos could relax for a moment and put the power gem back into his gauntlet, a red-figure approached with a bang.
