After the energy of the Power Stone calmed down completely, Josie was ready to lead people to leave Morag.
"Josie, what are you going to do with them?" However, when she was about to leave, Peggy Carter noticed the few Decolons being escorted by the stormtroopers, and couldn't help but ask Josie.
"They are Dracula's enemies, so naturally they should be left to Dracula to deal with!" Qiao Xi glanced at several disarmed Decolons and replied almost without thinking.
Just like Dracula didn't want to offend Josie, Josie also didn't want to break up with Dracula over a trivial matter.
After all, there is no conflict of interest between the two.
This answer was somewhat unexpected to Carter, but it was also reasonable.
"Or do you have any other opinions?" Josie looked at Carter and asked.
"No...no, I'm just asking!" Carter wanted to say something, but looking at the slightly majestic expression on Josie's face at this time, he was speechless.
But in her heart, she still couldn't accept Josie's sudden change.
When Qiao Xi saw this, he didn't say anything, nodded, and took Margot onto the spacecraft.
Carter, who saw this, followed silently.
"I know you have a lot of questions. If you want to ask anything now, just ask them!" After returning to the spacecraft, they went all the way to the lounge. After the three of them sat down on the sofa, Josie looked at Carter and said.
"...That's great, Josie, what's going on with this army? Why are you looking for something as dangerous as the Power Stone?" Carter still had that resolute and resolute character. As soon as Josie let go, she
I immediately asked the question I wanted to ask.
"Actually, it's very simple. The army you see was formed by me in the past few years. After encountering the incident of Maxwell coming to the earth, I actually obtained a lot of alien relics one after another.
, I obtained a lot of alien technology, and my power was also obtained during this period. As for the Power Stone, after I learned about the legend of the Infinity Stones and confirmed their authenticity, I began to look for clues, and I looked for his
The purpose is actually very simple. I don’t like anything that can threaten me and is not under my control... Do you understand that? Think about it, if there is an enemy of the earth... No, not the earth.
If an enemy, even if it's just my personal enemy, gets hold of this gem, what do you think will be the result?" After explaining, Josie asked Carter.
Josie's words left Carter speechless.
This reason may sound a bit childish, but it has to be said that to a certain extent it is impeccable.
That's right, I want to master anything that can threaten me. This doesn't sound wrong at all.
Because countries on earth, especially the strongest ones, have always done this.
"But why did you get those technologies..." Carter asked again.
"Why not hand it over to the government? Why not contribute it to all mankind? Come on, the Peggy Carter I remember is not such a naive person - if these technologies are really exposed, Peggy, tell me, the result will be the earth
Is it more likely that all countries will work together to develop together, or is it more likely that Mao Xiong and the United States will go to war directly?" Qiao Xi asked rhetorically.
Carter was speechless again.
Indeed, in the past few years, the confrontation between the East and the West has become increasingly obvious and intense.
Whether it was when he was in CA or after taking over the team, Carter didn't know how many times he had fought against the intelligence agency from Mao Xiong.
"Sorry, Josie, I know I shouldn't doubt so much, but what happened recently really had a big impact on me..." After a long silence, Peggy Carter sighed.
"Of course, I understand this. Well, it will take a lot of time where we are going next. You can go to the room and have a good rest!" Josie stood up and patted Carter on the shoulder to comfort him.
"...Thank you, maybe I should rest more!" Carter nodded, did not refuse, got up and went back to the room.
"Compared to Marvel, she obviously cares more about you! Even now that Captain America appears again, it is probably not as important as your status in her heart." After Carter left, Margot said.
"What? Are you jealous?" Josie sat next to his wife, put his arm around her shoulders and said with a smile.
"That's not true. Is it really okay to keep hiding it from her? She is our friend after all...and..." Margot said a little unbearably. They are obviously good friends, but they have to hide many things about their family from each other.
, which made her feel very sorry.
"Of course I understand this, but some things require someone to make sacrifices..." Qiao Xi said quietly... In fact, after being together for so long, how could he really have no other feelings for Carter?
But as he said, some things must require someone to make sacrifices.
The sacrifice here is not even limited to concealing things.
And some other things...
For example...the soul gem must be exchanged for the soul of the person you love!
It’s impossible for Josie to sacrifice Margot in exchange, right?
Although Josie can also obtain this most special gem by letting others obtain the soul gem and then snatch it, this does not prevent Josie from making some preparations for this.
Thanos trained Gamora for twenty years for that day.
Why not Josie?
But now is far from the time, after all, he doesn't even know where the planet Vormir is.
No relevant records of this planet have been found in the Kree Empire's database or in some external star map materials such as Contrasha.
To be honest, I have been reading books recently to catch up on updates, switch sources, read aloud with many sounds, and it can be used on both Android and Apple.]
Obviously, before Gamora discovered this planet during her mission in the plot, the location of this planet was still a mystery.
It's just that at this point in time, Gamora hasn't even been born yet.
Even if she is born, before Gamora is adopted by Thanos and discovers the planet Vormir, Josie will try to avoid Gamora's line so that Vormir cannot be found.
Of course, Josie would not tell Margot about these things about the Soul Stone.
After some tenderness with his wife and comforting him, Josie came to the bridge.
"Leader!" Seeing the arrival of Josie, Taronikus, who was busy at first, stood up in a hurry to say hello.
"Be casual, Vereesa, how's the investigation going on about the missing marauders?" Josie waved her hand and asked.
He was asking about the remaining Kree war slaves in the two ships intercepted by the Ranger fleet, except for the Centaur.
According to the news previously received from Dracula, in addition to the Marauders who had been confirmed to have died in the battle, there was also a group of Marauders that were listed as missing. This made Qiao Xi cautious and immediately contacted Wen Lei.
Sarah, let him find out what's going on.
"It has been found out that there are some plunderers who, after seeing the strength of our fleet, knew that they were outmatched, so they disarmed and hid among the Kree slaves. After being captured by us, they have been
They are planning to escape, but our guards are tight enough, and the star field where the fleet is stationed is not on any cosmic route, so they have no chance of escaping!" Talonikou heard Qiao Xi ask about this matter.
Si replied immediately.
"Very well, inform Vereesa and ask her to send all the non-Centaur slaves, including those plunderers, over. Well, let's meet at Nowhere. I will arrange a good place for them.
!" After hearing Talonicus' answer, Josie nodded and ordered.
The place they are going to now is the lair of Collector Tanya Tiwan.
Josie wants to develop his power in the universe, but he doesn't want to expose his strength too early and cause too many conflicts with Kree and other large cosmic civilizations.
After all, he is different from Dracula. Dracula only occupies a territory and dominates. In fact, he does not pose much threat to those large cosmic civilizations.
But what Qiao Xi wants is for the earth's civilization to occupy a place in the universe.
This is a completely different concept.
Therefore, a better way in the early stage is to take the path of the Neutral Universe Business Foundation.
But obviously, this method requires a lot of funds.
Although Qiao Xi carries a plane trader, has more than a dozen different universes standing behind him, and possesses a massive amount of materials, it is not easy to exchange them for the currency of this universe.
After all, trade itself is a relatively complicated process, let alone cosmic trade.
Moreover, too many various materials appear on the market, which can easily attract the attention of major civilizations and numerous cosmic business groups.
Of course, during this process, Qiao Xi can also wear the tiger skin of Dracula, the blood lord, but it will still attract the prying eyes of many forces.
Although Josie is not afraid, it will obviously waste a lot of time and energy.
But in the universe, there is such a place, such an existence, which allows Qiao Xi to easily exchange for massive amounts of funds.
This place is the place of no existence, and this existence is the collector.
As a being who has lived for who knows how many years, the collector's wealth accumulation is unimaginable to the outside world.
Even those established cosmic empires may not be as rich as him.
Basically, a little leakage from the cracks between fingers can drown the current Josie.
It's just that it's not easy for ordinary people to make money from this collector.
Although collectors don't care about money and are happy to spend a lot of money on the things they like.
But please note that people are collectors, not rag collectors.
It’s not that we don’t accept high-quality products.
But this is obviously not a problem for Josie.
There are so many worlds, so many civilizations, and so many species that are not found in this world.
Just pull out a few, they are all the collectors have never seen before.
Before that, Qiao Xi had collected a large number of species from those worlds that most likely did not exist in the Marvel Universe.
The most numerous of them are some species in Azeroth.
For this reason, little Abbedis has been busy with this issue over the years.
Josie believes that collectors will be happy to pay for these species.
…………
After more than a week of sailing, Qiao Xi and the others arrived in the star field where the Land of No Existence is located.
During this period, except for encountering a group of not-so-sighted predators, everything went smoothly.
Although it is called the Land of No Existence, its location is not a secret.
Basically, it is marked on various star charts sold in the universe market.
But so far, no civilized force has dared to attack this place - even if the special organic matter produced here is a best-selling product in the entire universe.
To be precise, it is not that there are no civilized forces that dare not take action.
But those civilized forces that dared to take action are gone.
Because the Tiwan Group, as a super business consortium in the universe, has an extremely large mercenary fleet, the armies of ordinary small and medium-sized civilizations are no match at all.
And the collector Tanya Tiwan is also a super strong person in her own right.
Don't look at the movie, it seems that the Collector was easily defeated by Thanos, and the entire Nowhere was destroyed in one fell swoop.
But that's based on the premise that Thanos has obtained the Power Stone.
Although the Collector also has the Reality Stone in his hand, in terms of power, it is obviously not as powerful as the Power Stone.
Therefore, it is normal for the Collector to lose to Thanos.
But it cannot be said that his strength is weak.
The arrival of Qiao Xi's fleet caused a commotion in the Star Port of Nowhere.
After all, the escort configuration of three Cheer-class battleships is not ordinary people's eyes.
Although the No Existence Land exists because of a large number of mercenaries, space miners and various cosmic beings with complex compositions, these people are not stupid and know who they can and cannot mess with.
So there was a blank space around Qiao Xi's spaceship.
After getting off the spaceship, people on the starport only dared to watch from a distance.
However, Qiao Xi and the others were not interested in dealing with these scum. They had already made an appointment with Tanya Tiwan, so the other party had arranged for servants to greet them early.
"Are you Mr. Josie Kahn?" An alien maid with gorgeous purple skin asked Josie cautiously.
"Yes, I am!" Qiao Xi nodded, not surprisingly, the person who greeted him was not the red-skinned alien that appeared in the movie - because again, the time was wrong.
The Collector himself is immortal, but his servants are not.
What's more, the collector has always been harsh on his servants, turning them into specimens at every turn, so he is also very diligent in replacing them.
"Distinguished guests, please come with me. The master has been waiting for you for a long time!" After confirming Josie's identity, the purple-skinned alien maid bowed extremely respectfully and said.
Josie nodded and motioned for Talonis and the robots carrying huge containers behind him to follow.
In these containers are the goods he wants to sell to collectors.
Soon, under the leadership of the purple-skinned maid, Qiao Xi met the collector, the man who got the slut just like in the movie.
