2,800 light-years away from the solar system, there is a huge interstellar fleet cruising.
Traveling at super-light speed, even the light was shrouded by the speed of the fleet. From a distance, no alien spacecraft could be seen at all. Only a dark cloud and the particle flow acceleration channel left by the fleet could be seen.
"My master, according to our speed, it only takes 14 hours to reach the location called Earth."
In a sea of tens of thousands of spaceships, a Ferris wheel-like Frisbee battleship leads the way.
Inside the battleship, a tall being wearing golden half-length armor and brown skin was sitting on his floating throne.
"Slow down, too slow, I only give you 8 hours, I don't have that much time to waste!"
The tall being held his chin in his right hand, and on his left hand, he wore a golden glove with three gems inlaid on it.
"My master, we are flying at full speed now. If we fly faster, the battleship will disintegrate due to the super-light speed, which will cause us heavy losses."
"Are you questioning my order?"
"No, I dare not"
Whoosh whoosh!!
The entire fleet accelerated again, and from time to time, warships would suddenly break into pieces and disappear without a trace while traveling.
Looking at the spaceships that were being destroyed one after another by particle flow due to faster-than-light flight, the commander wearing a metal mask had a look of resentment in his eyes.
Traveling faster than the speed of light itself has certain risks. Considering the quality of their spacecraft, they can only travel at a maximum of 200 times the speed of light, which is a maximum speed of 200 light-years per hour.
A distance of 2,800 light years would take at least 14 hours at full speed.
If it takes 8 hours to arrive, the speed of the spacecraft must at least be increased to 350 times the speed of light. Although it is only an increase of less than half, it is actually two speeds.
Boom, boom, boom!!
Among the tens of thousands of spaceships, some are turning into dust in the universe every minute and every second.
In just one hour, the fleet lost at least hundreds of spacecraft, and the number of crashes was still rising.
Seeing the red lights flashing on the screen one after another, the commander's heart was bleeding, but even so, he still did not dare to order to slow down.
Because if you obey orders, only tens of thousands of clan members may die, but if you disobey orders, the entire race may be destroyed.
"Father, please go and beg me. More than a thousand spaceships have been lost. These are a thousand space battleships. Are they just wasted traveling at super-light speeds like this?"
A Chitauri, also wearing dark silver armor and a mask, found the fleet commander.
"Shut up, everything we Chitauri have is given by you, and now is the time to be loyal to you!" There was a trembling tone in the commander's words. Why didn't he want to tell that person that flying faster than light speed is a massacre.
But he couldn't, because the man named Thanos never listened to explanations, let alone allowed others to question his orders.
Three thousand years ago, the Chitauri's homeland fell into a period of decline, and they were forced to wander among the stars.
While wandering, they met their master, an interstellar titan who called himself Thanos, and received his protection.
Over the next three thousand years, the Chitauri conquered the universe for Thanos, destroying civilization after civilization, and themselves transformed from cosmic wanderers to the infamous cosmic legion.
At first, the commander was full of joy, because without Thanos' protection, the Chitauri would have disappeared into the universe long ago.
But as time goes by, and the Chitauri slowly gain a foothold in the universe and can survive even without relying on Thanos, the issues of loyalty and freedom are placed in front of everyone.
More than once, the Commander wanted to get rid of Thanos and let the Chitauri become independent.
But he never dared to make up his mind, because he knew how terrifying Thanos was. He was a strong man who dominated the universe and dominated one side.
Thanos' reputation has never been achieved by relying on the Chitauri. On the contrary, the Chitauri were able to transform from interstellar wanderers to a powerful force with thousands of planets and tens of thousands of battleships entirely because of Thanos' generosity.
reward.
Speaking of which, Thanos is quite a weird person.
He launches wars everywhere, but never occupies any planet. He does not smoke, drink, play cards, or mess around with men and women. In his daily life, he is like an ascetic monk.
Sometimes commanders don’t understand why Thanos, who has no desires and desires, launches those wars. Are there really people who are born for war and are destroyed because of destruction?
"Didi is warning, there is a super reaction ahead, and the target is approaching quickly."
In the command room, a red light suddenly lit up, bringing the commander's mind back to reality.
The commander casually clicked on the control button a few times and ordered: "Analyze the energy source, analyze its speed, and the encounter time."
"Didi is analyzing."
A ray of light is projected in the command room, forming an interstellar projection.
Looking at the light that was more dazzling than the sun on the screen, the commander couldn't help but whisper: "What the hell is this?"
"The analysis of Didi's energy source is completed. The target has the energy of more than 100,000 suns."
"The speed analysis of Didi is completed, the target speed exceeds 1,200 light years per hour."
"The analysis of Didi's encounter time has been completed. We will encounter Didi in 10 minutes. Please be prepared to avoid it in advance."
The commander frowned and directly issued an evasion order.
After the spacecraft changes direction, the oncoming energy body also changes direction, even if it changes its orbit several times in a row.
"Sir, this thing doesn't seem to be a star. Stars don't have such a large energy response, and its target seems to be us!"
After hearing the report from his subordinates, the commander fell into deep thought and couldn't help but glance at the throne suspended in mid-air.
ten minutes later
boom!!
Tens of thousands of space battleships docked together, forming an endless ocean of spaceships.
Under this stillness, a golden light suddenly exploded in front of him, and the dazzling light even eclipsed the sun.
Three seconds later, the light dissipated.
On the screens in all the spacecraft cabs, a figure wearing a golden coat and a cloak, standing proudly, appeared.
"Haha, interesting!"
Thanos, who was sitting on the throne, knocked on the armrest of the chair with a ferocious smile on his face.
Ever since the Sentinel rushed out of the earth and came towards him, Thanos had sensed this opponent.
Now it seems that he has not been disappointed. Another heavyweight member has appeared on the poor and weak earth.
"You continue to the Earth. I am going to seize the Infinity Stones. This person" Thanos held his gloved left hand and raised his eyes slightly: "Leave it to me!"
Click!!
The hatch of the spaceship opened, and Thanos, who was sitting on the throne, floated out of the spacecraft.
One of them is standing in the void, the other is sitting firmly on the throne. This moment seems to have transformed into eternity.
One minute, two minutes, three minutes
Neither of them acted rashly, they were just observing each other.
Soon, the fifth minute came. Although Thanos and the Sentinels still did not move, the spaceships began to accelerate.
"Where to go!"
Seeing that the spaceship was about to take off, the sentry was the first to be unable to bear it any longer.
The spaceships present blocked the sky and the sun, and the sentinels were not sure that the earth could defeat so many enemies.
