Chapter 302: Chapter 302
?
"Yes, High Priestess!" Sovereign voices echoed in unison.
"Let''s see what kind of strength this so-called legendary warrior of Terra possesses," High Priestess Ayesha thought with amusement as she watched her people, their expressions solemn, preparing to fire their warships.
In the next second, the fleet resumed its attack. This time, however, they included Syd, who floated in the air, as one of their targets.
Sovereign eyes gleamed with pride and anticipation as they imagined this figure riddled with holes from their barrage of goldensers.
On Scene
Star-Lord piloted the Mno, weaving to evade the attacks while shouting a warning, "Be careful!"
Unbothered by the onught of yellow energy sts, Syd raised his hand, a red light suddenly radiating from his palm.
In an instant, thousands of high-energy yellowsers, like raindrops hitting a water screen, disappeared without causing the slightest ripple.
"What?"
High Priestess Ayesha, prepared for a spectacle, froze, her expression stiff.
The Sovereigns, once brimming with confidence, were now filled with shock. "What did he do?"
"How did he block the attacks from so many warships?"
While they gawked, Syd, having effortlessly neutralized thesers, surveyed the densely packed fleet of nearly two hundred warships in the sky. Slowly, he raised his right hand.
Under countless stunned gazes, all the warships within a kilometer radius were enveloped in red light.
Then, with a deafening roar, the warships began to copse inward, exploding into brilliant fireworks in the sky.
In mere moments, the once-packed sky was cleared as the warships disintegrated, their remains vaporized by chaotic magical energy.
It was as if the fleet had never existed, the sky as clear as before.
Instinctively, the Mno, which had been maneuvering to avoid fire, came to a halt.
At the controls, Star-Lord and Rocket stared ck-jawed at the White Knight, his white cloak fluttering in the wind.
With a mere wave of his hand, an entire fleet had been obliterated and vaporized?
"What kind of power is this?"
"Is this what they call a god?"
Star-Lord was utterly dumbfounded.
This scene, visible to countless New Yorkers, sent chills down their spines.
The White Knight''s power was bing increasingly fearsome.
...
Elsewhere
Nick Fury at S.H.I.E.L.D., Tony Stark at Stark Tower, and countless others, including military officials, were left grappling with the shocking disy of power.
For the Sovereigns, the shock was even greater.
On their gaming chairs, screens shed red, apanied by a chorus of failure notifications.
From High Priestess Ayesha to the ordinary Sovereign citizens, all wore expressions of disbelief.
High above, Ayesha''s face twisted in shock as she demanded, "Who did this?"
The fleetmander, equally stunned, quickly responded, "Activate death rey!"
A massive projection appeared, ying back thest 30 seconds of the fleet''s experience in slow motion.
Under tenfold magnification, they finally understood.
The White Knight had simply raised his right hand, enveloping their fleet in red light, which crushed and annihted their ships in an instant.
Some warships had even been visiblypressed before exploding.
High Priestess Ayesha''s expression became one of unprecedented disbelief. "What kind of power is this?"
"This man destroyed our entire fleet in the blink of an eye?"
How terrifying must his power be?
The other Sovereigns were equally shaken, struggling toprehend why a single individual could wield such unimaginable strength.
Recalling something, High Priestess Ayesha muttered in disbelief, "The rumors of powerful beings on Terra... they''re true?"
ording to the stories, one could destroy a city in an instant, and another could erase countless lives with ease.
If the White Knight possessed such power, then the tales of Messiah, who could obliterate cities, might also be true.
"How could such a weak civilization produce beings this powerful?"n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
The fleetmander interrupted her thoughts. "High Priestess, what should we do now?" Despite her fear, Ayesha forced herself to remain calm. "Deploy some probes to assess the situation."
"Yes!"
Soon, a swarm of golden probes wasunched, swiftly heading toward Earth through jump points.
...
Back on Scene
On the Mno, Star-Lord, having recovered from his shock, eximed, "Bro, you''re this
strong?"
"You''re way more powerful than you were back on that barren! Back then, I even doubted the rumors about Terra''s powerful beings, but now? No exaggeration-I think the
stories even underestimated you!"
Rocket nodded instinctively in agreement.
Unlike the awestruck Star-Lord and Rocket, Gamora remained more rational, even feeling the urge to distance herself from such a dangerous figure.
Still, gratitude was necessary.
"Thank you for helping us," Gamora said sincerely.
Syd nced at them and gave a small nod, then prepared to leave without another word.
However, he paused, sensing something. He raised his head, looking toward the sky as if he had noticed something unusual.
His actions puzzled Star-Lord, Gamora, and even Ultron, who was secretly observing. What
was the White Knight looking at?
The answer came momentster.
A pure white, egg-shaped spacecraft descended from the clouds. Standing atop its hull was a
middle-aged man with brown and white hair.
Looking at the White Knight, the man remarked, "Impressive perception."
Suddenly, Ego''s gaze fixated on the red glow emanating from Syd''s hand, his brows
furrowing.
At a distance, he hadn''t noticed much. But now, sensing the unknown energy up close, a flicker of familiarity crossed Ego''s mind.
In the next instant, realization dawned on him. Eyes widening, he stared intently at Syd.
"I detected a force recently... one that altered the universe. Its source seemed to be Earth..."
