Chapter 239: Chapter 239


    ?


    With this thought in mind, Syd pulled out a ck backpack from behind him.


    As he opened the backpack, three separatedpartments were revealed, each containing a glowing object.


    Inside were none other than the Tesseract, the Reality Stone, and the Mind Stone, which he had removed from the scepter.


    Since the scepter was toorge, he had discarded the staff itself, keeping only the gemstone at the top.


    Of course, it was still encased, simr to the Tesseract.


    It turned out that with or without the staff, Syd could still use the Mind Stone after sensing its power.


    In the next moment, photon energy surged in his hand as he grabbed the Tesseract.


    Meanwhile, after some hesitation, Syd began to imagine the where the Orb, the container of the Power Stone, was located.


    The Orb was simr to the Tesseract, both containing Infinity Stones-only the Orb held the Power Stone.


    He wondered if the Tesseract could take him to that...


    If it couldn''t, his n to collect the Infinity Stones would be stalled. After all, without reaching level five with his divine body, he currentlycked the ability to survive indefinitely in the vacuum of space.


    ...


    Meanwhile, in a distant, unfamiliar gxy, therey a deste.


    shes of lightning asionally flickered in the atmosphere, casting the in darkness, much like an overcast day on Earth.


    This was none other than Morag, an abandoned world.


    Amidst the howling winds and pouring rain, a figure dressed in a reddish-brown leather jacket, with a mask sporting glowing red eyes, appeared.


    If Syd were there, he would instantly recognize the figure-none other than Star-Lord from the Guardians of the Gxy.


    If Iron Man was known as a mortal who stood among gods, then this man could be described as a god who stood among mortals.


    Star-Lord, whose full name was Peter Jason Quill, had a human mother and a celestial father, Ego the Living-a celestial being.


    However, Ego was an iplete celestial. He possessed celestial-level powers butcked the physical form of a celestial.


    Initially, Ego had only a brain, which gradually developed into a over time.


    Though iplete, Ego''s power was still immense, capable of destroying fleets of spaceships with a mere gesture.


    As Ego''s son, Star-Lord inherited half of his celestial bloodline.


    For now, though, Star-Lord was just like an ordinary human, albeit with a unique body.


    At this moment, Quill was walking on Morag, searching for something.


    Before long, using advanced technology, he arrived at a dpidated pce.


    As he walked inside, Quill began to awkwardly dance along the way.


    After dealing with some filthy creatures, he reached a grand hall.


    Inside the hall, a glowing beam of light held a silver orb the size of a fist-the Orb containing the Power Stone.


    The beam was a security measure to protect the Orb.


    Clearly, breaking through the beam to retrieve the Orb would be difficult.


    Fortunately, Quill was prepared. He ced a small gravity device on the ground.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om


    In no time, the Orb was pulled by the device, moving toward it under the force of gravity.


    With a sh, the Orb broke free from the beam and fell onto the device.


    As Quill happily picked up the Orb, unaware of the two ships that had followed him to the, a warning sounded as several aliens burst into the room.


    "Put it down!"


    The leader, a ck-skinned alien holding an energy gun, pointed it at Quill and threatened, "Hurry up, put it down!"


    Facing the situation, Quill reluctantly threw the Orb down.


    Looking at the guns aimed at him, he quickly raised his hands and exined, "Hey, man, it''s down. Rx, no problem here!"


    The ck-skinned alien picked up the Orb and demanded, "How did you know about this?"


    Quill immediately lied, "How could I know about this? I''m just a scavenger, picking through stuff here and there."


    Unfortunately, the alien wasn''t fooled and coldly replied, "You don''t look like a scavenger. You''re wearing Ravager gear!"


    Quill realized then that the alien had recognized his identity as part of the Ravagers, a group of space pirates.


    Thinking quickly, Quill tried to bluff again, "I picked this up too!"


    After some back-and-forth, when the aliens tried to capture him, Quill saw an opening and kicked the Orb toward the alien holding him.


    In the next second, the Orb glowed as it struck the alien.


    Then, a terrifying sight unfolded.


    Energy surged out from the Orb, instantly vaporizing the aliens from head to toe.


    Quill drew the twin energy pistols from his waist and shot the ck-skinned alien, grabbing


    the Orb once more.


    With the Orb in hand, he made a run for it.


    Energy sts exploded behind him, creating craters as Quill desperately fled.


    After a frantic chase, Quill barely reached his ship,ughing as he climbed aboard and made his escape.


    A whileter, as he safely fled, Quill received a call from Yondu, his adoptive father. Yondu had taken Quill from Earth as part of Ego''s orders. But after discovering Ego''s sinister ns, Yondu chose to raise Quill rather than hand him over to the celestial, giving him the chance to grow freely, away from Ego''s control.


    During the call, Yondu questioned the whereabouts of the Orb. However, Quill had no intention of handing it over, choosing instead to betray his crew.


    After an unpleasant exchange, Yondu hung up and immediately put a bounty on Quill''s head.


    ...


    Back on Morag, a figure dressed in white appeared, holding the blue Tesseract.


    It was Syd, now wearing his White Knight outfit.


    "So, this is Morag?"


    "The Tesseract really is impressive-it actually brought me here..."


    ncing at the deste, dark environment around him, Syd frowned.


    Not wanting to stay in such a gloomy ce for long, he began searching.


    After some time, he stopped and frowned at the battle marks left on the ground.


    "They''re already gone..."


    Fortunately, he knew where Star-Lord was headed next.


    In the next moment, he gripped the Tesseract once more.


    With a sh of blue light, he disappeared from Morag.


    The blue light flickered, and Syd''s figure reappeared on another-Xandar.


    As he appeared, Syd''s eyes lit up with curiosity.


    The environment here was very simr to Earth, but the buildings and surroundings were


    cleaner and more advanced.


    At this moment, he was floating in the sky.


    While Syd marveled at his new surroundings, the aliens on the streets below had their mouths


    agape, stunned by his sudden appearance.
