Upon hearing Xu Fu's words, Queen Soflin's expression turned grim, as if she had been frightened by something.
After a long while, Queen Soflin spoke, “No wonder Adam was born that way. The bloodline of our superior race is incomparably noble. The purer the bloodline, the brighter the gold on one’s body…”
All the inhabitants of Thorin have golden skin, except for Adam, who is like a human.
Whether created by Sovereign or incubated by Sovereign, the ultimate combat power to evolve should be golden, just like the Sovereigns, which is perfectly reasonable.
Queen Sovereign initially believed this was due to an accident during Adam's incubation process.
Looking back now, it's likely that Adam became the way he is today because he was bewitched by the demon god in the Heart Demon Pearl.
Queen Sovereign broke out in a cold sweat upon thinking of this, but quickly calmed herself down, nodded slightly to Xu Fu, and said, "Your Excellency Jovovich, you have saved the future of Sovereign. The friendship between Sovereign and you will shine like gold forever!"
Xu Fu nodded, expressing considerable satisfaction with Soren's attitude.
Making friends with scumbags and other people is one of Xu Fu's greatest pleasures in life.
Back on Earth, without a disgusting friend like Tony, how could my life have been so incredibly happy?
If it weren't for Katarina's Rejuvenation spell making Steve a rich woman, Steve wouldn't even be able to afford a spare Venom Armor.
If he befriends Soflin, he won't have to worry about money or other issues when he enters the universe.
Queen Soflin was very interested, and so was Xu Fu. Soon the two began exchanging pleasantries. Queen Soflin offered Xu Fu a considerable amount of space currency, which Xu Fu could not refuse, and reluctantly agreed.
This is a normal part of making friends.
Xu Fu remained calm and composed, while only Star-Lord, Tang, Rocket, and the other 0.9s around him watched with wide-eyed disbelief.
Being a mercenary is becoming increasingly undesirable these days.
People like them fight time and time again for their lives, risking their lives in the center of the universe, yet they are no match for someone who happens to make a friend.
Life is too hard.
Just as Star-Lord, Bald Qiang, and the others were rolling their eyes in envy and jealousy, Adam, who had been lying unconscious to the side, finally rubbed his head and slowly woke up from his coma, his face contorted with pain.
"Mom, what you just said isn't true, is it?"
"I can't be a robot, right?"
Chapter 535 The Rise of Nebula
Soon after, with the arrival of Adam Star-Lord, Rocket, Bald Qiang, and others, they were once again drawn into endless arguments. Only Xu Fu wore a strange smile on his face. Unconsciously, he raised an eyebrow at Nebula, his smile looking dejected and uneasy.
"Is that enough? Stop all of this!"
"I will tell you where the assassins and the Kree fleet are hiding!"
Nebula was genuinely frightened by Xu Fu, feeling that this person wasn't just straining their voice at all, but was sincerely trying to expose her through modification.
On the other hand, Gamora's actions at the crucial moment—for her own feelings—did indeed touch Nebula.
The divisions within the Guardians of the Galaxy? They've vanished without a trace.
After clearing up all misunderstandings and conflicts related to Gamora, Nebula decisively betrayed her "father," the assassin.
Gamora and Nebula don't have any particular fondness for assassins; in fact, it's fair to say they hate them.
In the past, when the assassin organization was powerful, these two were indeed rebels, but now that the assassin organization relies on the Kree Empire, they have even less psychological pressure to rebel or betray.
After obtaining the location information of the Destroyer Fleet, Xu Fu released Nebula's restraints with a faint sense of satisfaction. Accompanied by the joyful sounds of the Galaxy Guardians reuniting, the entire 11 fighter jets, guided by Nebula, quickly flew towards the location where the Destroyer Fleet was hiding.
The Kuafu Meteor Belt is vast and boundless, but it must be said that the Guardians of the Galaxy are luckier than the protagonists, as their fighters are not too far from the Destroyer Fleet's sanctuary.
The entire fleet is now under the command of the Kree Empire and in the hands of the Kree, and must obey the orders of the Kree high command.
In order to reach Suvellin in time during the main battlefield, Thanos's fleet did not actually stop in the middle of the Curad meteor belt. Instead, it was divided into two sections. On the one hand, it hoped to obtain the Space Stone from Thanos. On the other hand, it used part of the fleet not only to violently destroy the meteors but also to open up a true interstellar passage to Suvellin.
Guided by the nebula, the group flew around the meteor belt for most of the day before reaching a relatively calm region in the magnetic field.
"It's incredible that there would be such a natural path at the center of the Kurad meteorite belt..."
"This is a route marked by the exceptional wisdom of the Kree Empire. Centuries ago, the Kree Empire sent numerous small fighter jets and reconnaissance units into the Qualard asteroid belt, spending countless hours and effort to map this route. It's just that it will take even more time and resources!"
Adam was horrified, while Nebula meticulously studied the documents he had brought back from the central Kree Empire.
If you think about it, this isn't surprising.
The Kree Empire's desire to seize Sovereignty may have been brewing for more than just a day or two; preparations for a raid on Sovereignty have been underway for centuries.
The assassins' betrayal and the appearance of the Cosmic Stone only strengthened the Kree Empire's ambitions and delayed their attack on Sovereignty.
The route discovered by the Kree Empire was thought to be natural, but in reality it is just a route less affected by the chaotic magnetic field and radiation of the Nako Arad meteor belt.
It was the unique weakening of the magnetic field along this route that gave the Kree Empire the opportunity to carve out a path through the center of this asteroid belt.
A dozen or so interstellar warships marched side by side, but they dared not use any form of energy weapon. Instead, they used the power of spacecraft to bring in more than a hundred or a thousand mechanical war beasts to smash the endless meteorites in the center of the passage. Then, fighter jets took to the sky and cleared away the meteorite debris in a net-like fashion.
As the dozen or so ships passed by, the military fortress followed closely behind, carrying an endless array of combat robots, constructing one technical stabilizer after another in the middle of the empty passage.
This type of movement is similar to the construction of ancient canals on Earth.
Even in the interstellar age, this progress was extremely slow; the Kree Empire did not discover the Kurad asteroid belt for hundreds of years.
Even so, at least nine-tenths of the passages have been opened, and even without the Destroyer and the Space Stone, the Kree Empire will be able to traverse the Kurad meteor belt freely on its own within a few decades at most.
Even Xu Fu was shocked by the patience and planning of the highest leadership of the Nari Empire when he saw this.
Stroking the somewhat bewildered Adam, Xu Fu said reassuringly, "The Kree Empire is the dominant force in the galaxy, while Suwerin and Earth are thorns in their side..."
Xu Fu hadn't finished speaking, but everyone present could imagine the scene.
Sovelin is located in the heart of the Kree Empire, and would have been annexed hundreds of years ago if it weren't for the natural protection of the Kurad meteor belt.
For example, if the Kree Empire hadn't announced its movements in Kurad before the passage was fully open, the Kree army could have attacked from the weakest point in Sovereign's defenses. Combined with a main Kree offensive from the outside, this pincer movement would have been impossible, no matter how wealthy Sovereign was, or even if Adam was a Heavenly Father-level powerhouse. It would have been impossible to stop the Kree Empire's growing strength.
In today's circumstances, the focus is no longer on Thanos or the Cosmic Stone.
At best, Thanos and the Cosmic Stone would send a small fleet deep into the heart of Sovereignty, potentially causing significant damage, but not destroying its foundation.
But the Kree Empire's schemes in the Kurad meteor belt succeeded, and Sovelin had no choice but to die.
Adam paused, a resolute expression forming on his face, as a gust of wind blew in. He spoke, "The situation is out of control. Peter, Don, Gamora, Rocket, Groot, Joe, get off the magnetic bomb. Go back..."
Star-Lord's eyes turned glassy. Hearing Adam's words, he jumped up. "Damn it, Adam, are you crazy? The magnetic blast here will cause chaos throughout the entire Kuradia meteor belt, and could even cause a starburst and cosmic tides. You will die, even if you have the power of a Celestial!"
The power of a Godfather is extremely strong, even in the universe, so strong that he can be considered a universally acknowledged god.
However, compared to the entire universe, even unknown beings at the level of a Celestial Father are incredibly insignificant, let alone those at the Celestial Father level. Even if the Kurad meteor belt cannot be compared to the universe, when the collected power is fully unleashed, it absolutely cannot withstand the power of a Celestial Father-level powerhouse.
The entire Kurad meteor belt is extremely famous, even throughout the universe, and is known as a cosmic wonder, even encircling half of the galaxy and region occupied by Sovelin.
Adam let out a long sigh and said, "My mother gave birth to me to protect Suvilin; this is my mission..."
Even a mole is afraid of death, let alone a living person.
Upon hearing Adam's words, the other members of the Guardians of the Galaxy fell silent.
Adam was conceived with a mission, destined to fight for Sovereign, and even die for him for the rest of his life, but the other guardians of the galaxy do not have such strong feelings for Sovereign.
Indeed, Soverein is a wealthy and powerful man, but even without Soverein, the Guardians of the Galaxy could still get along.
Just as Star-Lord, Rocket, Bald Qiang, and the others were hesitating, Gamora suddenly spoke up: "I want to keep 073 here too!"
Star-Lord, Tang, Rocket, and the others all widened their eyes instantly.
Nebula stood quietly beside Gamora, looking at the three of them with disdain, and said indifferently, "Not human!"
Groot hesitated for a moment, but eventually walked up to Adam, Gamora, and Nebula and mechanically repeated, "I am Groot."
The three Star-Lords, their faces flushed with disdain as they were met with scorn, exclaimed, "What do you mean by that? I never said I was leaving. I just blew up this damn meteor belt. I'm a Star Lord, I've traveled the entire universe, what haven't I seen..."
The Star Lord spoke, and then Bald Qiang, Rocket, and the others joined in enthusiastically. For a moment, all the guardians of the galaxy were filled with a strange atmosphere, a mixture of magnanimous anger, joy, and happiness.
Xu Fu was stunned by what he saw.
What a bunch of damn idiots, even more brainless than Thor, Carroll, and Hobbes.
"Ahem!" Xu Fu coughed, interrupting the Guardians of the Galaxy's sympathy, and said awkwardly but politely, "Alright, I think you should be more careful. The entire Kurad asteroid belt almost completely covered the entire Sovereign. There's probably nothing left of Sovereign!"
This is something so basic that even a tech idiot like Xu Fu could understand. When it was pointed out, the initially indifferent Guardians of the Galaxy members suddenly blushed.
The whole system was flawed, due to insufficient consideration and miscalculations!
Star-Lord was the first to react, pretending to say, "Joe is right. Actually, this is what I'm against first. Blowing up the Kuafu is a minor matter; the most important thing is Suvilin's safety..."
Deng the Bald interjected without batting an eye, "That's what I meant too!"
In the crowd: "..."
Chapter 536 The Penetrating Destroyer
It is impossible to detonate the magnetic field of the entire Kurad meteor belt. Even with the use of magnetic bombs, it is only possible to destroy the Kree Empire's conspiracy by carefully calculating and minimizing the effects of all magnetic disturbances within a small area.
But for the Guardians of the Galaxy and people like Xu Fu, just exploring the Kree Empire's secret routes would take an unknown amount of time to complete the project, not to mention on-site reconnaissance and calculating variables, and even the entire Sovereign Empire would be the same.
Fortunately, besides this shortcut, there is another shortcut for the Guardians of the Galaxy, Xu Fu, and others.
The Kree Empire has toiled for centuries. If they can break through the Kree fleet's blockade and infiltrate the heart of the fighter group, they can reap the rewards of the Kree Empire's centuries of hard work, easily find a suitable place to place the Magnetic Bomb, and then arrive.
Of course, for the Guardians of the Galaxy and Xu Fu and his team, this was also an impossible task.
Only from Nebula's words do we know that, in addition to the fighter jets used by the Kree Empire, this fleet also contains more than a dozen Kree leaders, each of whom possesses advanced weapons and equipment created by their own advanced intelligence. No matter where they are, they can use top-level combat power no less than the peak of the third stage.
