Everyone watching the screen was speechless when they heard and saw this. After all that, Thanos turned out to be an environmentalist.
Could anything be more ridiculous?
Unlike Dormammu, who wanted to consume Earth, or Hela, who wanted to conquer the universe, Thanos, the second phase's supervillain, didn't have a core concept of conquering the universe or controlling life and death. Instead, it was for environmental protection.
But who uses murder for environmental protection?
If the environment is bad here, just kill everyone!
Isn't this environmental terrorism?
Isn't this going down the wrong path?
"But he doesn't seem to have thought about one problem. Considering the rate of life's proliferation, solving half of life can't solve the problem at all!" Tony Stark said. "Is his thinking too narrow? There are many ways to solve the problem. For example, can't he turn fantasies into reality? So why doesn't he increase the matter of the universe by one or several times, or even dozens of times? Wouldn't that be a fundamental solution with unlimited energy and resources? Or just set a rule that this race won't continue to increase the population limit; one dies, and only then can the next one be born, wouldn't that solve the problem?"
Tony Stark casually considered it, and there were countless solutions. How did it come to the point where he had to wipe out half the life in the universe?
And wiping out half the life in the universe wouldn't even work. Life multiplies quickly. At most, it would only be effective for a few decades, a hundred years?
Even for tiny creatures like insects, it might recover in a few years.
"Thanos probably isn't very good at math. Otherwise, if he did the math, he'd know this is unreliable!" Bruce Banner said at this moment. "And the growth of the population is generally proportional to the level of civilization development. The more advanced the civilization, the lower the population. Take Asgard, a god-level civilization, but the entire civilization's population is only as big as a city. Isn't the fertility rate in various developed countries concerning?"
Everyone just didn't want to complain; the plot hole was too ridiculous. Doctor Strange in the picture heard this and stood up. He looked at Thanos and then asked, "And then?"
"Then, I can watch the sunrise and sunset in a peaceful universe. Only the strongest will can make the most difficult choices!"
Thanos said faintly, as if he had already seen the day he would retire and watch the sunrise and sunset.
For him, this was a painful choice. To achieve this great goal, he had to sacrifice everything, his subordinates, his relatives, even his planet. Everything, everything would be sacrificed.
Even possibly including himself in the end.
He really gave up everything for this goal. He could have easily been a big shot on a cosmic level, but now, he had to stand up because he was the strongest, possessed the strongest will, and now had to make the most difficult choices.
But everyone outside the screen felt a chill run down their spines when they saw this scene. Because when a person goes down the wrong path, the more powerful their strength is, the stronger their will, the more astonishing the destruction they can cause.
These superheroes were the same in a certain sense. For a just, noble goal, they could even sacrifice themselves completely.
But what if it involved their own relatives?
For example, if the price of saving the world was Tony Stark, he would go without hesitation. But if the price was Pepper Potts, then it would be hard to say if he would still do it.
Sacrificing their relatives, family, and friends was a thousand, ten thousand times more difficult than sacrificing themselves.
That's why they say Thanos is a ruthless person. He could achieve this great undertaking, and for the sake of achieving ultimate cosmic harmony, he sacrificed himself, his subordinates, and his own daughter.
Thanos's will even surpassed that of these superheroes.
His ruthlessness was imaginable.
At this moment, Doctor Strange said coldly, "You will find that our will is no weaker than yours!"
With that, Doctor Strange immediately took a stance, preparing to fight Thanos to the death.
His entire body radiated the orange-yellow glow of magic.
This battle was inevitable. He knew he would die, but it was for the rebirth in five years.
"We..." Thanos raised his head and saw a huge satellite being pushed by Tony Stark, smashing down towards Thanos.
Boom!
A massive explosion erupted as a satellite slammed directly into Thanos.
"Piece of cake, Quill!" Tony Stark smirked, clearly believing this was a significant blow.
"Yeah, if the goal was just to piss him off!" Quill retorted.
Unlike the Avengers, who had never left Earth and didn't know how terrifying Thanos was, the Guardians of the Galaxy knew better. They were well aware of how formidable this cosmic overlord truly was.
After all, his girlfriend and teammate, Nebula, had both served under Thanos. From them, he'd learned just how terrifying Thanos was. Thanos's power was, without a doubt, the most terrifying thing he'd ever encountered.
Such an attack would cripple even a demigod, but it meant nothing to Thanos.
Sure enough, the satellite that had crashed into Thanos was instantly shattered. The Power Stone on his Infinity Gauntlet flashed with a brilliant purple light, instantly pulverizing everything.
The Power Stone demonstrated its terrifying power; this level of attack was nothing.
Enraged by the sudden assault, Thanos roared and retaliated. He used the Reality Stone to transform the satellite fragments into a swarm of projectiles, instantly blasting Tony Stark away.
And this completely negated everyone's previous guess, which was that the Reality Stone wasn't just a simple illusion.
If it were just an illusion, it wouldn't have allowed the Dark Elves to believe they could rule the universe with it.
It could turn everything one imagined into reality, transforming the unreal into the real. This was the terrifying aspect of the Reality Stone.
It was completely different from Loki's illusions because Loki's magic was fake. No matter how realistic it seemed, it was still fake.
But Thanos's magic could be real.
But before everyone could think more about the abilities of the Reality Stone, the battle erupted directly. The situation became even more tragic after everyone joined the battlefield.
The first to strike was Spider-Man Peter Parker. He used his web to blind Thanos. At this moment, Thanos, facing the onslaught of everyone, was caught off guard and a bit disheveled, but he didn't fall behind at all.
The scene was like in the old online games, where a guild was fighting with all their might to raid a boss, but Thanos was high in attack, defense, and health. Everyone's attacks were like a scratch, unable to hurt Thanos in the slightest.
And what was even more terrifying was that Thanos didn't seem to be affected by their attacks at all. They were completely useless, not even able to break through his defenses.
All their attacks just looked flashy, a beautiful display, but their record was zero for five.
He was even getting bored and was about to start his counterattack.
At this moment, Doctor Strange immediately reminded everyone, "Don't let him clench his fist!"
Having seen over fourteen million possible outcomes, he knew exactly how Thanos used the abilities of the Infinity Stones, even if it wasn't the full power of the future.
He didn't have all six Infinity Stones yet, but even the three he currently possessed were incredibly powerful.
Especially for those watching outside the scene, they had originally estimated that Thanos only had two Infinity Stones at this stage.
The Space Stone and the Power Stone.
But who knew, with a turn of the screen, he possessed the Reality Stone.
Who knew what exactly he'd missed, so he had no idea where he got the Reality Stone from.
Only Odin of Asgard and Thor seemed to have a vague idea.
After all, they had just analyzed that the Aether was the Reality Stone, and the Reality Stone was originally sealed away by Odin. Later, for unknown reasons, it ended up with Thor's girlfriend, Jane Foster.
In other words, this Reality Stone was highly likely to be in Asgard.
Especially after that brutal battle, even though Frigga died, the Dark Elves' leader ultimately ran away.
Then the Reality Stone was likely to remain in Asgard.
In other words, this also verified everyone's previous view that after the Twilight of the Gods in Asgard, Thanos had invaded Asgard.
It's even highly likely that Thanos was the real cause of the Twilight of the Gods of Asgard mentioned in Lin Feng's diary, and not the fire giant Surtur.
These details all line up.
And they are naturally even more filled with hatred at this moment. Thanos's ability to obtain the Reality Stone certainly involved extremely brutal killing, even to the point where Bruce Banner thought Thor was dead.
Honestly, if Odin wasn't really in an inconvenient situation right now, where taking action would only hasten his death, he would want to go find Thanos to cause trouble.
Let Thanos know what Asgardian wrath is, what Odin's wrath is.
Let him know the majesty of the God-King!
