"Adora, it's one thing for you to seduce my man right in front of me."
"For the sake of our past relationship, I'm not holding it against you."
"Now, do you think I'm easier to bully than that idiot Ronan, that straight-laced idiot?"
At this moment, Carol transformed into a fiercely protective husband, her aura incredibly arrogant and domineering, her dazzling flames seemingly capable of distorting the very void.
The people of Xandar had not expected Carol to react so strongly.
In the minds of the people of Xandar, Carol was a kind-hearted 'good person' who always obeyed the rules and regulations of the place she visited.
After Ronan was defeated.
These high-ranking officials on Xandar dared to demand the Power Stone from Rein and Carol because they thought good people were easy to bully and wanted to use moral blackmail against them.
But unfortunately.
They had no idea that Carroll used to be a 'good guy' simply because Carroll wanted to be.
Back on Dragon Ball Island on Earth.
Carol already knew that Rein's current training required the power of the Infinity Stones.
These attempts at moral blackmail by the Xandarian high-ranking officials touched a nerve with Carol.
Love is mutual.
The women of Dragon Pearl Island have always been Rein's Achilles' heel.
Similarly, Raine is naturally the Achilles' heel of all the women on Dragon Ball Island, including Carol.
This is why, after Carroll ruthlessly annihilated an entire Nova Corps squad, he was determined to intimidate the people of Xandar, even if it meant turning against them.
When you see Carole's attitude.
The high-ranking officials of Xandar also realized how ridiculous their previous ideas had been.
Use the moral rules set by the weak to restrain and control the strong.
It's like a mouse waving a piece of cheese the size of a sesame seed, trying to get its prey from a tiger.
Moreover, this mouse even wanted the tiger to be grateful.
In the instant Carroll turned on him.
The various people on Xandar, including mercenaries, raiders, and space pirates, erupted in cheers.
In the past, it wasn't that no one coveted the wealth of Xandar.
Before Carol arrived on Xandar.
Those powerful interstellar mercenaries and space raiders are also often able to plunder Xandar.
But ever since Carol moved to Xandar.
The rules and regulations on Xandar became increasingly numerous and excessive.
For twenty years, the higher-ups of Xandar, using Carol's influence, relentlessly exploited the wealth that originally belonged to interstellar mercenaries and space raiders.
But now, Carol has fallen out with the Xandar leadership.
The most excited were naturally the interstellar mercenaries and space raiders.
"Ms. Marvel is amazing!"
"That's right, the Xandarians deserve to die!"
"The spoils belong only to the victors."
"A bunch of damn scum, I, Hu Hansan, am back."
"I will support Ms. Marvel to the death."
Just a moment.
Many onlookers, emboldened by the prospect of escalating the situation, began shouting and clamoring from the perimeter.
Meanwhile, the high-ranking officials of Xandar all turned as black as the bottom of a pot, and some of them were even trembling.
Among these high-ranking officials, some intelligent individuals already knew that they had crossed Carroll's bottom line and that things were going terribly wrong, having thoroughly angered him.
But there are always some greedy and foolish idiots who can't see the situation clearly.
Beside Adora, a young cosmic gigolo who had recently risen to a high-ranking position on Xandar thanks to Adora's favor, dared to continue his tirade after Carol's outburst: "Ms. Marvel, how are you any different from those space raiders and invaders...?"
"Shut up!"
Just as that pretty boy was about to continue morally blackmailing Carol.
Adora roared instinctively and took a step back, putting some distance between herself and the cosmic pretty boy.
Cosmic pretty boy: "..."
Your Majesty, are you serious?
Do you know how much damage this step back will do to us?
This pretty boy from the universe wants to say something more.
But Adora, having seen through the situation, spoke crisply and decisively: "Carol, I swear, this was all the private behavior of that idiot and that moron."
"In fact, I was also deceived by these bastards and had no idea about the evil things they had done."
"From this moment forward, I hereby declare the abolition of all unreasonable regulations on Xandar."
"The spoils belong only to the victors; that's the rule of the universe... Zizi."
As a queen who is skilled in social maneuvering, she was able to lead the entire planet Xandar from a low-to-mid-level civilization to its current state in just three hundred years.
Adora is quite capable.
Many things that used to annoy people were simply shifted to Adora as blame.
Furthermore, in just a few words, Adora announced changes to many of Xandar's regulations, which to some extent helped to improve people's impression of Xandar.
As for the cost, it's nothing more than pushing out a few scapegoats.
Especially that damn pretty boy.
Why not just quietly be your own thing? If you're stupid, don't talk.
This kind of idiot deserves to die.
If we could exchange the life of this fool for some of Carol's past favors, that would be even better; at the very least, we can't let Carol become an enemy of Xandar.
Chapter 605 Prometheus, Alien Insect Race
Queen Adora is a very shrewd woman with a somewhat open personality, but she is definitely not a fool.
And if Adora isn't a fool, she naturally wouldn't risk completely offending supreme beings like Renn and Carol over things that don't rightfully belong to her.
As a result, naturally a group of people have to step forward and take the blame.
Unsurprisingly, a group of high-ranking officials from Xandar, led by that pretty boy from space, were quickly convicted, with some killed and others imprisoned.
After these matters are resolved.
Rein and Carol did not linger on Xandar.
Said without politeness.
The foolish things done by the high-ranking officials of Xandar have completely ruined Carol's affection for Xandar after living there for twenty years.
After disposing of Carol's properties and belongings left behind on Xandar.
Ryan and Carol decided to buy a small spaceship specifically for interstellar tourism and space exploration, and once again ventured into space.
Ronan's death was somewhat hasty.
However, some secrets about the Zerg were still discovered from the warships, soldier talismans, and other items left behind by Ronan.
It turns out that even after Ronan 797 was exiled to the Kree frontier and even betrayed the Kree Empire, he continued to accumulate strength and collect various useful cosmic intelligence, hoping to enhance his power, make contributions, and one day return to the Kree Empire.
The information about the Zerg came from Ronan's accidental capture of an android during a battle, from which he obtained some secrets about the Zerg.
The android came from a research and exploration spaceship called Prometheus.
Three months ago, the Prometheus spaceship was hired by two scientists from Straw Hat Planet, a primitive interstellar civilization dominated by humans, to search for some mysterious cultural relics on Straw Hat Planet and to explore a planet that had long been deserted.
That was a planet that once possessed a highly advanced interstellar civilization tens of thousands of years ago, but which vanished completely from the universe overnight.
There was a time when there was a craze in the universe for finding these unknown planets.
However, this unknown planet was hidden long ago by an interstellar civilization from tens of thousands of years ago, and the coordinate information of this unknown planet in the star map was deleted.
With no relevant clues found, the craze quickly died down completely.
The captain and the android of the Prometheus were unaware that the two human scientists they had hired were actually searching for an unknown planet and civilization that had mysteriously disappeared tens of thousands of years ago.
After we finally found that planet.
The captain of the Prometheus, driven by professional ethics and curiosity, followed the two human scientists into the unknown planet and into a ruin.
Tens of thousands of years have passed, and the world has changed dramatically.
On that unknown planet, all traces of past civilizations have completely disappeared.
