Chapter 396 Guessing the Winning or Losing (please order the full version!)
"I want to know the current location of the Mad Titan Thanos?"
Russell said calmly.
The collector, who had been smiling just now, instantly became extremely serious after hearing Russell's words.
"Mr. Bradley, are you kidding me?"
The collector asked seriously.
"Do I look like I'm joking?"
Russell asked rhetorically.
The collector said nothing and looked at Russell with a serious expression.
After a few seconds of silence, he slowly said: "Mr. Bradley, I'm sorry, I can't make this deal with you."
Although it's unclear what Russell could offer, the collector declined the deal.
He does have a morbid collecting habit, but that doesn't mean he will do whatever it takes to collect.
The collector knows exactly what can and cannot be done.
Not only him, but also his brother Gao Tianzun who likes to arrange various powerful beings to fight.
In terms of strength, Thanos definitely meets Gao Tianzun's requirements for a gladiator.
But he will never take advantage of Thanos.
To be precise, not only would he not be able to take advantage of Thanos, but he would also not be able to take advantage of Thanos' subordinates, such as Obsidian and Gamora.
There are many powerful beings in the vast universe.
Among these people, there are some who absolutely cannot be offended.
If we have to count the top combat power in the universe, Thanos may not be included.
But if you were to pick the craziest among these powerful beings, Thanos would definitely be on the list.
Thanos is a madman who would not hesitate to kill half of all life in the universe at once in order to complete his plan.
Even though the Collector and Gao Tianzun are the elders of the universe, they don't want to have anything to do with Thanos.
"Mr. Tiwan, don't you want to know what kind of reward I can give you this time?"
Russell did not take the collector's rejection to heart and continued to ask.
"I know you have a lot of things worth collecting in your hands, but what you want to trade is too dangerous."
"If I tell you Thanos's location, there is a high probability that Xuanyu will become Thanos's next target."
"As for me, I may also become a stepping stone to establish his evil reputation."
The collector said seriously.
"Thanos is indeed very strong, but I don't think you, Mr. Tiwan, have any power to fight back in front of him, right?"
Russell said calmly.
"This is not a matter of whether you have the ability to fight back."
"He is a madman, and a powerful madman."
The collector shook his head and said.
After seeing the collector's current performance, Russell frowned slightly.
It shouldn’t be!
Although the collectors in the movie universe are also very weak, the collectors in the movie universe are not so afraid of Thanos.
In the movie universe, a collector offered 4 billion to buy the cosmic orb in Gamora's hands.
Although the cosmic spirit ball failed to fall into the hands of the collector in the end, judging from the fact that he dared to purchase the cosmic spirit ball from Gamora, we can know that he is not particularly afraid of Thanos.
It’s impossible for the Collector not to know what’s inside the cosmic spirit ball, and it’s also impossible for him to not know the price to pay to snatch something from Thanos, but he still did it.
This only shows that he is not afraid of Thanos.
However, in this universe, the collector is not even willing to trade with Russell for a specific coordinate.
No matter from which angle you look at it, the collector's performance is a bit too self-centered.
After thinking quickly for a few seconds, Russell sighed slightly.
Since the Collector is unwilling to trade Thanos' coordinates with him, let's find another deal.
Besides the Collector, there is one other person in the Void who knows how to find Thanos.
Gamora!
Although Gamora has defected to Thanos now, as Thanos' first adopted daughter and the most valued adopted daughter, it is impossible for her not to know how to find Thanos.
"Mr. Tiwan is unwilling to trade, so forget it and treat me as if I haven't been here."
After saying that, Russell turned around and left.
When Russell's figure completely disappeared from sight, the collector said to the red-skinned maid: "Karina, forget everything you just saw and heard. If you can't do it, think about the last one."
What happened to the maid."
As soon as the collector finished speaking, Karina's expression became very complicated.
"Okay, Master!"
Karina said quickly.
After hearing Karina's answer, the collector nodded with satisfaction.
…………
Volcano Bar.
After coming out of the collector's residence, Russell did not go to Star-Lord, Gamora and others immediately, but went to the nearby Volcano Bar.
At this time, he was sitting on the bar, tasting an unknown spirit.
His main purpose in coming to Wuwu Land this time was to find out Thanos's location.
He originally thought that since it was just a position, the collector would be happy to trade with him.
Unexpectedly, the collector refused without even hearing what the reward was.
Although besides the Collector, Gamora also knows the specific location of Thanos.
But Gamora was not Russell's first choice.
The collector's abnormal behavior made him wonder whether he had overlooked some issues.
Otherwise, it cannot be explained why the Collector is so afraid of Thanos.
After recalling all the memories related to Thanos in his mind, Russell still couldn't figure out why the Collector was so afraid of Thanos.
never mind!
forget about it!
Russell picked up the wine glass in front of him and drank the strong liquor in one gulp.
Then, let the bartender at the bar pour another glass.
Since the collector doesn't want to trade, just go find Gamora.
Thinking of this, he used his divine power to sense the locations of Star-Lord, Gamora and others.
The last time they met, he had memorized the auras of Star-Lord, Gamora and others.
As long as Star-Lord, Gamora and others did not leave the Void, he could easily sense their specific locations.
Without any effort, he locked the location of Star-Lord and others.
After locking the location of Star-Lord and others, he did not go there immediately, but put magic marks on them all.
Then, he continued to taste the liquor in front of him.
Although he does not have the Tivan coins issued by the Tivan Group, he does have a lot of new star coins.
Thanks to the fame of Xandar and the Nova Legion, Nova Coins are highly circulated in the universe.
Although there are differences in exchange rates, Nova Coins can be used on most planets and places.
After drinking an entire bottle of spirits in the bar, Russell took out one thousand new star coins from the system space, pressed the new star notes with an empty glass, and left the bar.
Star-Lord, Gamora and others have been in the Void Land for some time.
After escaping from Qien Prison, they came to the Land of Nothingness.
However, because the cosmic spirit ball fell into Russell's hands, they were unable to trade it with the collector.
What's even more troublesome is that now they not only have to avoid being wanted by the Nova Corps, but they also have to avoid Thanos.
Although they have not yet established a particularly deep relationship, they can be considered a small team.
Now, they are discussing in the spaceship whether to stay in the Void Land or go to other places.
They are now mainly divided into three factions.
Star-Lord and Gamora's idea is to leave the Void as soon as possible.
Although the Void Land is a no-nonsense zone, it is home to wanted criminals and fugitives from all planets.
But this is not a good place to stay for a long time.
Star-Lord, who grew up in a Predator spaceship, does not reject the environment of the Void Land, but now he has firmly chosen to support Gamora.
The bohemian and somewhat unreliable Star-Lord couldn't help but fall in love with Gamora after living with her for a while.
Although he had confessed his feelings to many women before, he knew that his current liking for Gamora was different from others.
Gamora's reason for wanting to leave the Void is much purer.
Evade Thanos!
Although Thanos has not sent anyone to arrest them yet, Gamora knows that by the time Thanos takes action, it will be too late.
Therefore, she hopes to disappear completely before Thanos takes action.
Although Star-Lord didn't know why Gamora was so afraid of Thanos, he already liked Gamora and chose to support Gamora without even thinking about it.
Gamora gave the reason to leave the Void Land as soon as possible.
But her reason was not recognized by the three Rockets.
Like Star-Lord, the Rockets and the other three don't find Thanos too difficult.
Although the three Rockets rejected Gamora, their reasons for rejection were different.
Rocket and Groot planned to stay in the Void and take on some bounty missions to make up for their soon-to-be-empty wallets.
Drax the Destroyer had no objection to leaving the Void, but he objected to Gamora's practice of disappearing.
He wants to find the accuser Ronan and avenge his wife, children and people.
So, differences emerged.
This is not the first time they have discussed this issue, but the previous discussions did not achieve unanimously agreed results.
There are only five people in total, one wants to avoid Thanos, one wants to seek revenge from Ronan, two want to stay and do tasks to make money, and one has no opinion.
If it were placed on any other team, the five of them would have gone their separate ways long ago.
But now it's not just any team that's facing this problem, it's the Guardians of the Galaxy.
Although the Guardians of the Galaxy have not yet made a name for themselves, just looking at the five members of the team, you can tell that this is no ordinary serious team.
Just when Gamora, Rocket and others were arguing with each other and trying to convince each other, Russell's voice suddenly sounded in the spacecraft.
"Why don't you just guess the winner and decide who wins? Just listen to whoever wins."
"That makes sense!"
As soon as Russell's voice sounded, Star-Lord suddenly clapped his hands and said with approval.
As soon as he finished speaking, the other four people looked at him like they were idiots.
Only then did Star-Lord realize that the words just now were not spoken by Gamora and the other four.
"I'm paralyzing him and making him relax his vigilance."
As Star-Lord said this, he pulled out the energy pistol from his waist and pretended to scan the spacecraft.
"Stop looking, I'm not here yet."
Russell's voice sounded again.
He has indeed not arrived yet, he just used sound transmission magic to transmit his voice over.
"Don't think I will believe you if you say this!"
Star-Lord said with disdain, while using his eyes to signal Rocket and others to look for other places.
However, Rocket and others ignored him.
After seeing Rocket and others' actions, Star-Lord's expression became a little embarrassed.
Although he claims to be the captain of the Guardians of the Galaxy and the captain of the spaceship, it is obvious that he does not have much prestige within the team.
After almost a minute, Star-Lord saw Russell on the spacecraft's surveillance screen outside the spacecraft hatch.
After seeing Russell standing outside the hatch with a calm face, Star-Lord couldn't help but frowned.
Although he had only met Russell once or twice, he had already left a deep impression on him.
In his opinion, if it hadn't been for Russell, they would not have been imprisoned in Qien Prison, let alone lose the cosmic spirit ball.
If things end here, Star-Lord will hate Russell for a while at most.
He didn't know that the Power Stone was inside the Cosmic Spirit Ball.
Not only did he not know, Gamora also didn't know.
What really caused him to hate Russell to the core was that Russell prevented their escape.
Although Russell only sent a divine clone over at that time, Star-Lord and others had no way of distinguishing whether it was the divine clone or his true self.
He didn't know why Russell wanted to stop their escape. He only knew that because of Russell's obstruction, they had to stay in Qian Prison for a while longer.
If he hadn't been able to defeat Russell, he would have definitely retaliated against Russell as soon as he escaped from prison.
"Open the door, you don't think that a hatch can stop me, do you?"
Russell looked at the surveillance camera outside the cabin door and said.
Although he could directly use divine power or magic to teleport in, he did not intend to do so.
Star-Lord turned his head and glanced at Gamora and the others. After seeing the tangled expressions on everyone's faces, he sighed helplessly and opened the hatch.
After the hatch opened, Russell walked in without any hesitation.
Gamora and others, who had had differences just now, now showed the same hatred and hatred, looking at Russell who walked into the cabin with serious faces.
"Don't look at me like this, I'm not here to cause trouble for you."
Russell said calmly, while scanning the environment inside the spacecraft.
Disorganized!
This was his first feeling after seeing the inside of the spacecraft.
"Are you here to catch us?"
Star-Lord held the energy pistol in his right hand and said to Russell.
"of course not!"
"The person who wants you is the Nova Legion. I am not from the Nova Legion."
Russell said slowly.
"Then what do you want from us?"
Star-Lord continued to ask.
"I'm going to correct you, I'm not here for you, I'm here for her."
Russell pointed at Gamora and said calmly.
Find me?
Gamora showed a puzzled expression and frowned slightly.
Although she knew about Russell's existence earlier than Star-Lord and others, she didn't have much dealings with Russell.
She had met Russell when she was in Vanaheim.
However, Russell used transformation magic at the time, so she did not recognize Russell.
