Chapter 247: Chapter 247


    ?


    Syd realized something.


    He might have underestimated the Celestials...


    The gigantic head floating before him seemed to stretch for several kilometers. If it had an entire body, just how colossal would it be?


    Even if the Celestials possessed no supernatural powers, their sheer physical size would be enough to crush anyone with their massive bodies!


    Furthermore, the fact that such arge body could move meant that the Celestials'' physical form must be incredibly solid and dense, or else it would copse after only a few steps.


    Suddenly, Syd recalled the Celestial that appeared in the Eternals TV series.


    The height of that Celestial was recorded at around 320,000 meters...


    Just thinking about it made him shudder.


    Could something like that even be dealt with by humans?


    "How did Odin fight against this thing?" Syd wondered.


    He remembered that the All-Father Odin, d in the Destroyer armor, had battled a Celestial. Although he eventually lost, he had managed to wound his opponent.


    It was bing clear that Odin''s power might have been far beyond what Syd had initially imagined, not as weak as he had thought.


    "Perhaps I''m still far from reaching the level of a Skyfather..."


    Syd shook his head in resignation.


    The more he learned, the more he realized how small his own strength was inparison.


    At this moment, Gamora and the others nced at him upon hearing him mutter about the Celestials.


    "Celestials?"


    "What Celestials?" Star-Lord and the others looked at him with a mix of curiosity and confusion.


    Syd nced at them briefly and calmly replied, "The head you see before you is a Celestial''s head."


    "There are creatures that huge?" Star-Lord gasped.


    Just imagining it sent chills down his spine.


    Under their gazes, Syd nodded and began to exin, "They are true gods, each possessing cosmic power on an unimaginable scale, and every one of them has specific functions."


    "For instance, there''s a Celestial called Arishem the Judge. He can determine whether a''s species should continue to exist or be eradicated, acting as a judge for the Celestials."


    "But that doesn''t mean that Arishem is only good for judging; on the contrary, every Celestial is extremely powerful."


    Gamora caught onto a key detail.


    Them?


    There was more than one?n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om


    She felt a sense of dread creeping in.


    Rocket and the others were astonished.


    Star-Lord, shocked, asked, "Hey, man, how do you know all of this?"


    "Have you seen a Celestial before?"


    For a moment, everyone''s eyes were on Syd. Gamora and the others were growing more convinced that this mysterious man in white was even more enigmatic than they had first thought.


    To know such secrets?


    Syd nced at them but didn''t bother answering Star-Lord''s question.


    At that moment, the Mno flew through the eye socket of the Celestial''s remains.


    As they entered, Star-Lord and the others were amazed.


    It was like a city inside, with buildings everywhere, and small machines floating around, seemingly harvesting something.


    Gamora exined, "Hundreds of years ago, the Tivan Group sent workers here to mine the organic materials from this skull."


    "Bone, brain tissue, spinal fluid-all raremodities, fetching high prices on the gctic ck market..."


    With her exnation, Star-Lord and the others gained a better understanding of Knowhere. Soon, they disembarked from the ship.


    Watching the others walking ahead, Syd silently floated behind them.


    Along the way, they encountered various aliens, and there were quite a few astonished gasps.


    Star-Lord sighed, "Hey, buddy, could you stop floating around? You''re distracting everyone and making it hard for us to walk."


    He nced at the crowd gathering around them in shock, feeling both envious and jealous.


    Syd, however, paid him no mind, continuing to float silently without saying a word. After all, why walk when you can float?


    As for the onlookers, Syd simply ignored them.


    Affected by Syd''s presence, Star-Lord and the others couldn''t even enjoy their walk properly,


    and had no choice but to gather together and keep moving.


    After about half an hour, just as Star-Lord was feeling bored and about to ask Gamora


    something, a pink-skinned woman approached them.


    "Miss Gamora, my master has sent me to escort you."


    She gestured for them to follow.


    On the way, she stole a nce at the floating Syd, her eyes full of surprise.


    They followed her toward the Collector''s location.


    Soon, they arrived at their destination.


    As soon as they entered, Rocket couldn''t help butin, "This ce is seriously creepy!"


    They were surrounded by ss cases, each containing various items-some animals, some objects.


    The pink-skinned woman exined, "Here, we house thergest collection in the gxy. Everything from animals to fossils, you name it."


    Syd nced to his right.


    There, he saw a case containing a golden retriever.


    To the left, there was a strange-looking alien creature.


    Syd''s mouth twitched slightly.


    However, just as he was about to ignore the surroundings and wait to meet the Collector,


    hoping to use him to open the Orb, he suddenly sensed something.


    He looked ahead.


    In one of the cases, there was a ck stone.


    Syd could feel it emanating a divine energy, though it wasn''t the power of the Asgardian gods.


    It seemed to belong to another realm.


    "Is that an artifact?" Instantly, Syd thought of items like Gungnir and Mjolnir.


    At that moment, the pink-skinned woman introduced, "Let me proudly present to you-


    Taneleer Tivan, the Collector!"


    From the center of the room, amidst the various disy cases, a middle-aged man with white


    hair turned around.


    The Collector, Taneleer Tivan, had been focused on Gamora, but when he noticed Syd floating behind the group, his face showed a mixture of surprise and admiration.


    It was as if he had spotted the perfect addition to his collection, his eyes burning with


    excitement.


    Syd''s mouth twitched again.


    "Dear Gamora, long time no see. And who might this be?" the Collector asked, his gaze fixed


    on Syd.


    Syd''s mysterious voice echoed in the quiet room, "Some call me the White Cloak. You can call


    me that as well."


    The moment the Collector heard this, his expression changed slightly, and he looked intently


    at the man before him.


    Sensing that Syd''s attention was on one of the collection items, he followed his gaze.


    Noticing the ck stone, he began to exin.
