"You're right." Horkes said, pacing back and forth in the room, "This guy Thanos has never been very respectful to me, and he often doesn't even come to see me, but I didn't expect him to be so arrogant.
Get to the point!"
A smile appeared on General Deathblade's lips.
"Follow me." Horkes waved his hand and left the room first, followed closely by General Deathblade.
This is a giant space ship. Horx's legion originated from interstellar pirates. Although their power is now so large that it is close to the empire, as the supreme leader, Horx still likes life on the spaceship.
Horx took General Deathblade, some subordinates and guards, and went straight to Thanos' residence.
At this time, Thanos was immersed in a sea of books. The originally spacious room was filled with various books, and there were many manuscripts scattered on the desk in the middle. The number two of the Horx Legion
The character is obviously delving into some problem.
"History is always so similar..." Thanos closed the ancient book in his hand, closed his eyes, and murmured a sigh.
"Bang!"
At this moment, Horkes, General Deathblade and others broke in through the door with a menacing force.
"Thanos!"
But Thanos opened his eyes slowly, looked at them, and smiled slightly: "I just discovered an interesting thing in many ancient history books. Do you want to hear it?"
"I don't care about that, don't act stupid, Thanos, let's talk about your business!" Horkes snorted coldly.
Thanos was obviously eager to share his views, so after being rudely rejected, he frowned, as if he had received an answer, and said to himself: "On most planets, life and civilization originate from nature.
Due to evolution, it often takes billions of years for stars and the earth to accumulate enough resources to promote the birth of civilization."
Horkes showed great anger at Thanos's disregard: "That's enough, Thanos, you arrogant guy! Now, in the name of the Lord of the Legion, I order you to kneel down!"
Thanos still turned a blind eye to him and was immersed in his own argument: "However, after the birth of civilization, the resources and negative entropy accumulated over billions of years became very scarce. A mature agricultural civilization could transform their planet in tens of thousands of years.
Completely exhausted.”
"Generally speaking, from the time a civilization masters planting technology, nature has set a countdown to its destruction. If it cannot acquire the ability to plunder resources from aliens within one hundred thousand years, its demise will be the inevitable outcome..."
Horkes finally couldn't bear it anymore and stepped forward, grabbed Thanos by the collar, and said fiercely: "You are ready to betray me and the Legion, aren't you, purple-skinned sissy?"
Since joining Horx's command, Thanos has never participated in a battle. He lives in seclusion all day long and is taciturn. His strong muscles are also hidden by the loose robes, so that some people indeed regard him as a nerd or even a sissy.
.
After grabbing the collar, Horkes tried to pull Thanos up, but after trying several times, he found that he couldn't pull him up at all.
"Betrayal?" Thanos' voice deepened, and with a flick of his fingers, he easily broke away from Horx's hand.
"Holkes, no matter what, you saved me in the first place, so I still respect you."
After a pause, he emphasized his tone again, looked at Horkes and continued: "But you should know why the Legion has developed to this point - it was me who turned a humble interstellar pirate group into a galloping Shia Empire.
This legion is a gift from me to you."
When Horkes heard this, his face turned blue and white, and his hands trembled with anger: "You..."
"I forgive what you said just now, and I don't want to leave the Legion for the time being. But I don't hope there will be a next time." Thanos said calmly.
"Forgive me?" Horkes felt like he was about to explode, and immediately drew out the sword from his waist in anger.
The cold light of the sword flashed, and Horx stabbed Thanos with the sword: "Go to hell!"
"Crack!"
However, there was only a crisp sound as the seemingly sharp sword struck Thanos, but it suddenly broke and the tip of the sword fell to the ground.
Everyone was stunned and looked at the broken sword in disbelief.
Thanos was silent for a moment, and then with lightning speed, he grabbed Horkes by the neck and lifted him in front of him like a chicken.
"You, what are you going to do!" Horkes was frightened and tried to struggle, but to no avail.
There was a chill in Thanos's voice: "Horkes, it is true that I have never fought since I left my hometown, but you seem to think that I am powerless because of this?"
Horx's face turned pale. It was only at this moment that he realized that Thanos was not the nerd and sissy he imagined.
Thanos finally let go of him: "Go away, you are still suitable to be a pirate."
Horkes, the all-powerful rebel and invader in the Shia Empire, was thrown to the ground in embarrassment like a lost dog.
What was even more unacceptable to him was that from beginning to end, his subjects and guards sat idly by and watched him being humiliated.
Horkes fell to the ground, gasping for breath. He felt like the world was spinning, as if the world had collapsed.
He glanced around and suddenly noticed the peerless blade in General Deathblade's hand, which was said to be Shia's sharpest weapon.
He gritted his teeth, got up from the ground, and snatched the peerless blade from General Deathblade's hand.
The Deathblade General instinctively tried to move away at first, but after a moment of hesitation, he decided to let go and let Horx take away his weapon.
Horx grabbed the peerless blade and roared at Thanos again.
Thanos's back was facing him, and he was caught off guard, and his shoulder was immediately slashed.
"Qiang!" It can be seen that there is no armor under Thanos's loose robe, but the peerless blade still makes the sound of hitting metal.
Thanos was furious, turned around suddenly, and punched Horx.
"boom!"
Under his heavy punch, Horkes didn't even have time to scream, before he turned into flesh foam with a loud noise and splashed all over the others.
Everyone, including General Deathblade, was stunned.
Thanos tore off his coat, revealing his exaggeratedly strong muscles, and looked at his shoulder. There was a shallow blood stain on his shoulder, as if he had been scratched by a knife.
But there is no doubt that this tiny wound was not caused by a knife, but by a peerless blade.
"Your weapon is good, but this guy's arm strength is too weak." Thanos looked at General Deathblade.
"..." General Deathblade was suddenly covered in cold sweat.
As the holder, he knows how sharp this peerless blade is.
Even if Horx's arm strength is insufficient, holding the peerless blade is enough to cut through most materials in the world, including the bodies of the gods.
However, such a sharp peerless blade couldn't even make a decent wound on Thanos' body, and could only barely leave some light blood stains.
General Deathblade believed that even if he personally used the peerless blade to slash at the unsuspecting Thanos, he would not be able to cause fatal damage to him.
Such physical defense was far beyond his knowledge.
He was once extremely arrogant about his power, thinking that he was comparable to those powerful gods who were famous in the universe. However, when he witnessed Thanos' terrifying power with his own eyes, he realized how ridiculous this conceit was.
Seeing the steel-like muscles and murderous Thanos in front of him, the Deathblade General's disdain instantly turned into fear.
He hesitated for a moment, then fell to his knees: "Lord Thanos, you are the true master of the legion, the only master of the empire, and our emperor!"
Others in the room also knelt down: "Your Majesty Thanos!"
Thanos wiped the blood from his shoulder, returned his gaze to General Deathblade, and carefully examined the man kneeling in front of him.
After a while, he said slowly: "From today on, Death Blade, you are my Obsidian General."
