Chapter 1994: Foreseeing Danger, Descent of Thanos
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
A lot of things here were nothing more than daily necessities for the 2023 Avengers.
Just like how developed nations wouldn’t keep the existence of cars, planes and ships a secret from less developed countries, the Avengers wouldn’t stop using them in front of Luke.
For example, the yellow spaceship, the Quantum Tunnel for passing through the Quantum Realm, and the fully nano-enhanced Mark 85 armor that Tony occasionally flew out and returned in – just the appearance and details of these things were worth studying.
Luke might be busy brushing the meat, but his attention was mostly focused on the information projected by his lenses.
Suddenly, he frowned and turned a skewer that was still a little short of heat.!!
He had been under surveillance the whole time, and didn’t want to reveal too much of his ability to sense things.
So, he could only turn around while he was eating the skewer and look at a certain part of the base separated by a training room.
There was a huge energy fluctuation there, which was even larger than when the Bifrost and the Tesseract were activated, and it was still increasing.
Were they finally using the Infinity Stones? Luke was a little pleased.
Once their friends and families were revived, the Avengers would definitely be in a better mood.
By then, Luke’s covert mental suggestions would be more effective, and the days of surveillance would be over.
A moment later, the energy fluctuation suddenly climbed to an unimaginable level before it came to an abrupt stop.
Luke knew that the Infinity Stones had probably been used.
Suddenly, he frowned and looked away.
There was another energy fluctuation, but it was very different from the Infinity Stones.
This was… the activation of a Quantum Tunnel! But who would activate a Quantum Tunnel during the revival operation? That didn’t make sense at all.
Luke’s sense of danger suddenly started to act up, and it grew more and more urgent.
This was an ability warning him that a huge danger was approaching.
Luke quickly returned to his room. Given how petty the Dark Knight was, the Avengers didn’t dare install surveillance cameras in his room.
He took out the armor from his inventory and put it on.
With a faint crack, the main parts of the armor quickly unfolded and locked on.
The moment that was done, Luke raised his head and couldn’t help but curse. “F*ck! Don’t tell me Tony here also slept with the wrong person?”
That was because at that moment, there was an extremely strong sense of danger coming from the sky.
Then, the Avengers’ base exploded and instantly turned to rubble.
Relying on his sense of danger, Luke moved quickly and finally hid in a large crater.
Charge out through the surface? What a joke.
Given how concentrated the firepower was, if he charged out on his own, he would definitely be turned to dust.
Master Luke had dignity – how could he put himself forward to take a beating?
Quietly laying low and keeping his head down as he accumulated strength and waited to counterattack later was his standard way of doing things.
…
A moment ago, in the battle conference room at the Avengers’ base, Dr. Banner snapped his fingers, and the Infinity Glove immediately fell from his arm.
Clint subconsciously kicked it away. Because of Natasha’s death, he didn’t like the Infinity Stones at all.
At that moment, Dr. Banner’s entire right arm was smoking. It looked more like a cooked pork knuckle.
Thor even smelled the familiar scent of roast meat, and couldn’t help but swallow.
Of course, it wasn’t because he was hungry, but because the prince recalled how he said he would do the Snap.
Dr. Banner’s one arm was as big as Thor’s upper torso. If Thor did the Snap, he would be half-roasted.
Tony stretched out his hand and sprayed quick-freeze fluid over Dr. Banner’s right arm to temporarily freeze and protect it.
Lying on the ground with a pained expression, Dr. Banner immediately grabbed Steve and asked expectantly, “Did it work?”
Steve wasn’t someone who spoke without thinking, nor would he dare make any irresponsible remarks about this matter. He could only say, “I’m not sure. Don’t move. We’ll know soon.”
At that moment, the protective barrier around the base that had been activated during the revival operation opened once more.
Looking at the sun outside, Scott walked to the window and smiled at the butterflies that suddenly flew past. “Guys, I think it worked…
“WT…” He saw a blue plasma beam shooting down from the sky.
The first shot hit the wide lawn outside the building, and a violent shock wave surged toward him.
In the past month, Luke had mocked Scott many times for being slow to react.
At that moment, his actions proved that he could actually be very fast when he wanted to.
The moment he saw the blue plasma beam, he reflexively closed his helmet and immediately activated the Ant-Man suit. His body shrunk and he hid in a corner.
After all, in his ‘spars’ with some members of the Bat Squad, if he hesitated for 0.01 seconds, he wouldn’t have to hesitate anymore after that.
As Luke said, reacting only to discover that it was a false alarm after was less costly than not reacting after being attacked.
As Scott flew out with the rest of the debris, he couldn’t help but praise Knight in his heart.
The Avengers in the room had been prepared to fight and deal with any unexpected situations before Dr. Banner snapped his fingers.
Although the attack was sudden, they didn’t die on the spot, but were buried under the collapsed building.
Outside the base, the blue-skinned female android, Nebula, was hundreds of meters away. She looked up at the huge spaceship above her and said excitedly, “Father, you’re here.”
Just now, she had secretly opened a Quantum Tunnel to the Thanos army from the 2014 universe which Rhodes and Nebula had traveled to in searching for the Infinity Stones.
A huge white light beam shot down from the spaceship, and several figures appeared.
A huge figure taller than the Hulk walked out first.
He was wearing light golden armor and holding a massive double-bladed sword. His skin was light purple.
This purple giant was none other than the tyrant of the universe — Thanos.
He looked around. “Is this the future? Well done, my daughter.”
Nebula took off the gold-colored plate on the lower half of her face and tossed it aside. “Thank you, Father. They suspected nothing. The glove with the Infinity Stones is inside the base.”
Thanos stabbed the giant sword into the ground, took off his helmet, and hung it on top of the sword. “Because they are always full of themselves.”
A thin figure behind him raised his hand, and a huge rock flew over to land next to the purple giant.
Thanos sat down. “Go. Find the stones and bring them back to me.”
“Yes, Father,” replied Nebula and the other four people in front of him.
The five of them turned around and headed for the ruins of the base.
Triangle-shaped ships landed behind them. The doors opened, and countless monsters with two legs and four arms swarmed out to charge at the ruins of the base.
