"General, you lose, Eric."

In the public park around Westchester Castle, he picked up the white war chess piece on the chessboard and pushed down the black king in front of him. The old man smiled at the opponent in front of him and said.

"You always beat me, Charles."

Shaking his head and looking at the king he had killed, Eric sighed helplessly.

"It's just a victory or defeat, don't worry too much."

Hearing his old friend's sigh, Charles responded with the same smile and asked tentatively: "One more round?"

"Come again!"

Hearing this, Eric suppressed his helplessness, raised the fallen king on the chessboard again, and explained his answer with actions.

"Professor X? Magneto?"

On the side, listening to the content of the conversation, Colin looked at the two people fighting on the chessboard in the park, with a look of surprise in his eyes.

The appearance of the two of them is exactly the same as that of Professor

At the same time, Colin did not see any signs of useability in them.

It seems that the two of them are just two ordinary old people who can be seen everywhere, playing chess and killing time in their leisure daily life.

"Bobby, hurry up, you missed the time..."

"Wait a minute, I'll come."

"Qin, guess what I just saw?"

"Scott, you know I hate showing off."

"Wade, I'm a little tired..."

"Then let's go back. Anyway, we've finished watching everything we should see."

With the effect of [Super Hearing], Colin discovered that not only Professor

When visiting the castle, it seems to be no different from the tourists around it.

"Do you know about mutants, Peter?"

Seeing everything in front of him, Colin's eyes flashed with a thoughtful look, and then he asked Peter beside him.

"Mutant, what is that?"

Facing Colin's inquiry, Peter scratched his head in confusion, as if he had no impression of it at all.

It seems that with the death of Apocalypse, the timeline of the entire mutant world seems to have undergone earth-shaking changes. Not only has Xavier's Academy for Gifted Youngsters become a tourist attraction, but even the memories of Peter and others have also changed, and even

Forgot that mutants existed.

I wonder if such a future is what Professor X expects?

"nothing."

Shaking his head, Colin looked at Professor

In a world without mutants, there would naturally be no so-called hatred and war.

…

"Listen to me, everyone will be happy..."

In Asgard (Fairy Palace), dsheim (Odin's Golden Palace).

War and fire engulfed Asgard, and a large number of corpses filled the entire land.

"Your supreme glory is to be redeemed by the great Titan. You may feel that you are in pain, but this is just a false feeling. In fact, you should feel redemption. The scale of the universe is balanced because of your sacrifice.

…”

Stepping among the corpses of Asgardian warriors, Ebony Maw used cold language to explain Thanos's philosophy.

"Smile, even if you die, you are still the subjects of Thanos."

Waving his fingers, he broke the neck of a resisting Asgardian warrior in front of him. As one of the five Obsidian generals, Ebony Maw not only has powerful language control ability, but also has powerful mind control ability. Even Asgardian

Even the warrior's strong body cannot resist the attack of this ability.

"You don't seem to be feeling too sad?"

Holding the Infinity Gauntlet, Thanos looked at Loki on the throne of the Golden Palace and said slowly.

"It is their destiny to fight for the king."

Holding a scepter and wearing a golden horned helmet, Loki looked down at Thanos in front of him, with no trace of fear on his face hidden by the helmet.

"Your only wrong choice is to regard me as your opponent. I, the new king of Asgard, will make you live in pain forever."

Bang! Wow

He raised the scepter in his hand and smashed it down high in front of the throne. With the surge of green light at the top, the power of the time stone fragments was activated.

Everything around him came to a standstill.

Whether it was the Asgardian warriors who rose up to resist or Thanos as the attacker, they all froze at this moment.

Pausing time is the ability of the fragment of time stone in Loki's hand.

Compared to Red Skull's erasure time or Apocalypse's infection timeline, this ability is ordinary, but extremely powerful.

No matter how terrifying the opponent is, they cannot fight Loki in a world where time is suspended.

It was precisely with this simple and terrifying ability that Loki killed his brother and father, usurped the throne and became the new king of Asgard.

During the pause, Loki stood up from the throne, walked through the high corridor in front of him, and stopped in front of Thanos.

"As the great new king of Asgard, I will give you endless pain and death as your punishment for offending the king..."

He raised the scepter in his hand and pointed the sharp tip at Thanos' neck. In the stagnant world, Loki delivered his judgment on Thanos with an indifferent expression.

He gripped the scepter tightly and stabbed Thanos' neck fiercely, just like he once did to his brother Thor.

Suddenly, in the stopped world, Thanos' arm wearing the Infinity Gauntlet suddenly stretched out and grasped the scepter firmly in his hand.

"No, it's impossible!"

Seeing Thanos suddenly moving in front of him, the expression on Loki's face became extremely stunned and shocked.

"Why are you able to act? I have obviously suspended time!"

The abilities granted by the fragments of the Time Stone are so powerful that even Odin cannot react during the paused time. This is why Loki remains confident despite Thanos' destruction.

However, what happened in front of him caused Loki to completely collapse the confidence he had built since he obtained the fragment of the Time Stone.

"The power of the Time Stone is not only possessed by you."

Faced with Loki's shock, Thanos' expression under his helmet did not change at all. He clenched his fist on the Infinity Gauntlet, and embedded it in the hole of the gem representing time, which emitted a green light. Under the influence of the power of the gem,

Next, the scepter in Thanos' hand dissipated in mid-air as if it had been baptized by countless time. Even Loki, who touched the scepter, his face under the golden horned helmet became extremely old.

Time is accelerated, this is the ability of the fragment of the time stone in Thanos's hand.

As the scepter weathered, the fragments of the time stone originally embedded at the top by Loki were also exposed.

"Gem, that's mine..."

Looking at the exposed fragments of the Time Stone, Loki stretched out his skinny fingers to grab it.

However, Thanos' palm wrapped with the Infinity Gauntlet grabbed the fragment first.

"Now, tell me, are you afraid?"

Holding the fragment of the Time Stone in one hand, Thanos lowered his head and looked down at the old Loki in front of him and asked.

"My gem, that is my power..."

Facing Thanos' questioning, Loki just kept repeating these words.

"You are not a qualified king, you are just a thief trying to stand up to the king."

Looking at Loki's appearance, Thanos's eyes flashed with a look of disappointment. He held the fragment of the Time Stone and pointed it at the location where the Time Stone was embedded on the Infinity Gauntlet.

Under the pull of the power of the gem, the fragment of the time gem blended into it without any hindrance.

"There are still seven dollars left."

Looking at the nearly completed gems on the gloves, Thanos' cold face showed a faint smile, and then he frowned as if he noticed something unusual.

"Wait a minute, seven pieces, why do I think I need to collect seven more time stone fragments before it's over?"

Frowning tightly, he looked at the two time stone fragments collected on the Infinity Gauntlet.

"Ebony Maw, how many fragments of time stones have we collected in total?"

Thanos asked Ebony Throat beside him.

"Counting this one, there are two in total, Thanos."

Nodding slightly, Ebony Throat replied slowly in an unhurried tone.

"No, not two."
