Chapter 181 - The Great Demon Thanos Slaughtering Asgard

Following the system's two prompts, a black rifle, somewhat unconventional in style but appearing very ordinary, immediately appeared in Black Widow's hands.

It really was very, very ordinary.

That was the immediate impression.

The gun didn't look technologically advanced or sophisticated, and compared to some of the other weapons the system had issued, this thing seemed like it was just thrown in.

Even so, after receiving the information about the Blaster Rifle that the system had instilled, Black Widow's face still showed excitement.

"Stark, this is an energy gun!" Black Widow immediately said to Tony Stark, and then she quickly removed the magazine.

Tony Stark, Nick Fury, including Captain America and Hawkeye, all leaned over to take a look and found that there were indeed no bullets in the magazine.

And it was a type of energy device, similar to a battery.

Tony Stark was finally a little interested, and he quickly picked it up to examine it: "It seems that this magazine also uses plasma-confinement technology, similar to a plasma lightsaber."

"Romanoff, how powerful is this energy gun?" Nick Fury couldn't help but ask in a low voice.

"Sir, it's naturally much stronger than a metal bullet." Black Widow's eyes were filled with unsuppressed excitement, "One shot from the Blaster Rifle can penetrate the armor of soldiers from another world!"

"Although I don't know what material that armor is made of, I think it's at least no worse than a bulletproof vest, because they are soldiers of the Galactic Empire! They are Star Soldiers!"

The words "Star Soldiers" immediately reminded everyone present of the Chitauri and other interstellar mercenaries.

Since the Blaster Rifle could even deal with Star Soldiers, it shouldn't be a problem to deal with interstellar forces like the Chitauri.

"And this one magazine can fire five hundred times!"

"That means this magazine holds five hundred rounds!"

"Also, even though this Blaster Rifle is called a rifle, it's not like our traditional rifles. We can use it like a semi-automatic pistol!"

This meant it was a pistol that could penetrate body armor and held five hundred rounds.

It was the fighter jet of pistols.

"Stark, I need you to replicate a batch of these Blaster Rifles," Nick Fury said to Tony Stark with a serious expression.

The appearance of the Blaster Rifle gave Nick Fury a glimpse of the possibility of fighting against alien armies like the Chitauri.

Of course, Loki had already been captured, and Nick Fury had also summoned Thor. The Battle of New York in the original story might not happen.

After all, Loki didn't even have a chance to open the portal.

But this matter truly sounded the alarm for everyone: Earth currently lacks the ability to fight against interstellar armies!

This could be called a fatal flaw, a fatal weakness.

But now, it's different.

Earth finally has weapons at the interstellar level.

Originally, Nick Fury's idea was Falcon's wings combined with the electric whip, but how could the electric whip compare to a Blaster Rifle?

That thing was too inconvenient, too limited.

But if it were Falcon's wings combined with a Blaster Rifle, that would be vastly different.

"No problem! This is not a difficult task for me." Tony Stark didn't make any excuses and immediately agreed.

He naturally knew what Nick Fury was planning, but Tony Stark approved of it; he would do the same.

The matter was settled with cheerful agreement.

[Answer submission complete, now playing answer analysis!]

Soon, the system's prompt sounded again, and everyone present turned their attention to the large screen in front of them.

A corresponding video began to play.

"We're under attack! I repeat, we're under attack!"

"Engines offline, life support systems failing! Requesting assistance from nearby ships! We are 22 jump points from Asgard!"

"The ship is carrying Asgardian families, few soldiers, this is not a warship, I repeat, this is not a warship!"

Following these faint words, two ships appeared in the vast, endless starry sky.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

One massive spaceship was relentlessly attacking another.

Without a doubt, the ship under attack was the Asgardian vessel.

The scene then shifted to the interior of the Asgardian ship.

Everywhere, bodies were strewn about, and the ship was in ruins. War raged, burning everywhere, a truly horrific sight.

Loki's brow furrowed immediately, his expression turning grim. Even if he harbored some resentment towards Asgard now, he absolutely couldn't accept this scene.

"Listen to me, you should be honored!"

A man walked through the piles of corpses, shouting at the surviving Asgardians, "You are fortunate to be saved by the great Titan!"

"You may think this is torment, but in reality, it's a salvation!"

"Because of your sacrifice, the balance of the universe has been restored, so smile! Even in death, you will become children of Thanos!"

As Ebony Maw delivered this "lengthy speech," the scene inside the warship was fully revealed to everyone.

Thanos and his Black Order were standing with their arms crossed, and around them, except for a Loki, all the Asgardians were lying on the ground.

Even important figures like Thor and Heimdall were no exception.

The atmosphere at the scene was somewhat oppressive. Thanos's strength made everyone feel a bit breathless. If even the Asgardian ship was like this, what other planetary civilization could withstand Thanos?

"I know the feeling of failure." Thanos spoke at this moment. "Clearly knowing you're right, but still failing."

Speaking of which, Thanos reached out and lifted Thor, who was lying on the ground and unable to move.

He walked towards Loki, as if he were carrying a dead dog.

"It is indeed terrifying, making your legs weak, but I have to ask you, why? Fear, avoidance... destiny always arrives, and now, it has arrived! Or rather, I have arrived!"

Thanos held Thor up in front of Loki. "The Tesseract, or your brother's head! You should have a choice to make."

Thanos's target was the Tesseract?

This surprised and caught everyone off guard.

First, Tony Stark and Captain America traveled through time to steal the Tesseract, and then Thanos destroyed the Asgardian ship to seize it. Just what was the Tesseract?

Why was it so important?

Suddenly, everyone present felt a weight on their hearts.

Was it really a good thing to have something of this caliber on Earth?

Could Earth truly protect such an object?

They only knew that Thanos would invade Earth in the future, but no one knew the reason for Thanos's invasion.

Could it be... for the Tesseract?

No one could be certain.

But the Tesseract had indeed brought a lot of pressure.

"Of course, kill him!" Loki's voice rang out, but he wore a cold expression, making the decision without hesitation.

It was as if he didn't care about Thor's life at all.

Thanos didn't bother with further words, directly using the purple gem on his gauntlet to press down hard on Thor's head.

"Argh!"

Thor immediately let out a painful scream, his face contorted in extreme agony.

Loki, seeing this, had his face twitch. It was obvious that his earlier nonchalance about Thor's life was just an act.

He was putting on a show in front of Thanos.

"Alright, stop it, quickly!" Loki couldn't bear to watch any longer, and couldn't help but shout at Thanos.

Loki's true nature was once again "exposed" to everyone.

Although this guy had previously sent the Destroyer to Earth to assassinate Thor, he still cared about Thor in the future.

"The Tesseract isn't with us. It's been destroyed on Asgard!" Thor said to Thanos, panting.

But how could such a lie deceive Thanos?

Thanos didn't even bother to respond to Thor, his eyes fixed on Loki, waiting for what he would say next.

Under Thanos's gaze, Loki flipped his hand, and with a flash of light, a blue-glowing cube appeared in his hand.

It was the Tesseract.

"You're the worst brother!" Thor couldn't help but say to Loki.

"I assure you, brother, we'll turn things around!" Loki said meaningfully to Thor.

"Your optimism is misplaced, Asgardian," Thanos said with disdain.

"First of all, I'm not Asgardian," Loki corrected him seriously. "Secondly, we have Hulk!"

ROAR!

Following Loki's words, a large green figure suddenly leaped out, tackling Thanos to the ground.

It was the Hulk.

"Hulk?"

Everyone watching the screen felt very surprised. Wasn't this an Asgardian spaceship?

How could Dr. Banner be on it?

Could it be that in the future, Dr. Banner went to Asgard?

Loki, watching the image of the green giant pummeling the Titan, felt a hint of anticipation.

"That freakish hulk, could he handle Thanos?"

Bang, bang, bang!

Under everyone's gaze, the Hulk started swinging his fists, pounding away at Thanos and forcing him to retreat.

This made everyone excited, both surprised and delighted. They hadn't expected Hulk to be so formidable, capable of overwhelming even the cosmic overlord Thanos.

But their joy quickly froze on their faces.

Because the situation on the battlefield soon reversed.

It turned out that Thanos had only been getting beaten because he wasn't taking it seriously. Once Thanos got serious, Hulk became a total pushover.

He was beaten so badly it was gruesome to watch.

In just a few blows, he was knocked to the ground and couldn't get up, unconscious and covered in blood.

Hulk was knocked out!

This scene caught everyone completely off guard.

Hulk, a being who grew stronger with rage, was virtually unstoppable. Even Captain America receiving a reward of a mind-clearing wristband was considered a treasure.

Yet, someone had actually managed to knock Hulk unconscious with brute force?

It could only be said that a cosmic overlord was indeed worthy of the title.

Bang!

The sound of a heavy object hitting something rang out. Thor seized the opportunity and rushed to Thanos, attacking him, only to be kicked away casually by Thanos.

Ebony Maw casually waved his hand, and a large circle of metal debris flew into the air, wrapping around Thor and completely restraining him.

Similar to the ability to control objects from a distance, Scarlet Witch had also demonstrated this, but it had to be said that her performance was far inferior to Ebony Maw's.

The power of Ebony Maw was deeply imprinted in the minds of everyone present.

"Father of the gods, let the dark magic flow through me one last time!" Heimdall, severely wounded and lying on the ground, muttered softly. Then, he reached out a hand toward the Hulk on the ground.

Whoosh!

A beam of light, similar to the Bifrost's transport, instantly enveloped the Hulk.

The Hulk's figure vanished in an instant.

"That was a mistake!" Thanos took a spear from Corvus Glaive and immediately pierced Heimdall's heart.

"No!"

Thor roared in agony, shouting at Thanos, "I will make you pay!"

"Shhh!"

Ebony Maw gestured for silence. With a wave of his hand, a piece of metal debris enveloped Thor's mouth.

Then Ebony Maw took the Tesseract in his hands and knelt before Thanos: "I, the humble, bow to your grandness! Never has there been one so great, so noble! Able to wield the power of not just one, but two Infinity Stones!"

As he spoke, Ebony Maw presented the Tesseract to Thanos.

Amidst Ebony Maw's flattery, Thanos took the Tesseract with one hand and crushed it with a single squeeze.

When Thanos opened his hand again, another blue gem appeared in his palm.

"That's one of the six Infinity Stones!"

Tony Stark, who had seen the Endgame, immediately recognized the gem, his face showing surprise, "So, there's an Infinity Stone inside the Tesseract!"

Now, everyone finally understood why the Tesseract was so important.

Not only Tony Stark, but everyone else present, including Loki, also showed expressions of shock.

The true nature of the Tesseract... was beyond everyone's expectations.
