Dannelian Day looked at Rudeus and felt that it was enough that Rudeus simply wouldn't do anything bad.
"Yes, it's me."
Rudius looked at the Arminus and said.
Rudius returned to the Arminus and took out the gift box his mother had given him, which he had never opened to see what was inside.
But something happened today that made Rudius want to open it and take a look; perhaps it was related to his father.
Rudius held the gift box, inside which was a letter addressed to him, which he read carefully.
"My beloved son, my little Star-Lord, your mother will always love you."
Rudius, upon reading the end of the letter, also burst into tears.
"I thought Rudeus chose the name Star-Lord himself, but it turns out his mother gave it to him."
As Ichi Nijika watched Rudeus reading the letter left by his mother and bursting into tears on the screen, she felt a pang of empathy.
Rudius then wiped away his tears and opened the gift box.
[It contained those cassette tapes used in tape recorders, but fortunately Rudius had the equipment to use them.]
Rudius listened to the songs on the cassette tape, traces of tears still lingering in his eyes—a perfect scene of someone listening to sad, emo songs late at night.
[Just then, Alice walked over and happened to see Rudeus's emo scene. Rudeus and Alice exchanged a smile.]
Meanwhile, aboard the Marauder army's mothership, the Marauders were singing and dancing, while Yondu sat in his seat, holding the cosmic orb that Rudeus had given him.
Yondu felt something was off, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it. After glancing at the Sphere in his hand, Yondu decided to open it and take a look.
Yondu opened the Orb of Destiny, and it wasn't empty as he expected, nor did it contain the Infinity Stones; instead, it contained an Ugly Doll.
Yondu, looking at the Uglydoll inside the Sphere, was both amused and exasperated by Rudeus's clever switcheroo.
Meanwhile, the Sphere containing the Infinity Stones had been placed by the Nova Supreme in the most heavily guarded location on Xandar.
Meanwhile, as the Guardians of the Galaxy prepared to depart from Xandar, the branches of the potted plant next to Rocket Raccoon seemed to awaken and stretch.
"Groot the tree didn't die; this is a case of escaping death."
Kazuma Sato looked at the living Groot in the light screen and said.
"It doesn't feel like shedding its skin like a cicada, but more like reincarnation. By the way, Rocket Raccoon probably didn't know that Groot had this ability, otherwise he wouldn't have cried like that."
Hachiman Hikigaya recalled how Rocket Raccoon had cried so much back then and said.
"They probably don't know, but Rocket Raccoon is lucky to have left a branch of Groot with him."
Kiritani Kazuto spoke first.
"What do we do next?"
"Is it to do something good?"
"Would you do something bad?"
"Or should we do a little of both?"
Rudius asked.
X-Men 2
543: Marvel's Batman and Iron Man
"Of course, it's your decision, Star-Lord."
Alice stood behind Rudeus, hands on her hips, and spoke.
"Then let's make both of them."
Rudeus, hearing Alice's words, also smiled and said...
Rudius, also operating at full power, piloted the Arminus away from Xandar and disappeared into the horizon.
[Rudeus's good habit was still in place on the Arminus: the music never stopped. Groot, the tree-like creature, listened to the music, swaying his small body, while Drax was wiping his sword behind him.]
Drax suddenly sensed something and turned his head, causing Groot to immediately stop, as if playing a game of "Red Light, Green Light."
Drax then turned back to continue wiping his blade, while Groot continued leaping, and the light screen dimmed.
"Guardians of the Galaxy."
As Rudius watched the light screen gradually dim, he felt a sense of emptiness, a feeling he had never experienced before, even after viewing other light screens.
The last time he had this feeling was when he finished watching a series he really liked.
Perhaps it was because the protagonist of this light screen had his own reasons, Rudeus felt a mysterious feeling, like Zhuangzi dreaming of a butterfly.
----------
"Next up is the Easter egg segment, I wonder what kind of content this Easter egg segment will reveal."
As Conan Edogawa watched the light screen dim, his first thought was of the Easter egg.
"I wonder if there will be any content related to Rudeus's half-bloodline, and just how mysterious these so-called ancient beings really are."
----------
"Guardians of the Galaxy, they do deserve some of that title."
Looking at Rudeus and his group on the light screen, Minoru Kageno said, "Ruleus is still an unknown quantity."
In reality, Minoru Kageno's strength is probably no greater than that of the Hulk.
It's probably only at the level of some mutants.
Then the light screen gradually appeared and began to play the first Easter egg.
[In the unknown land, inside the collector's shop, the collector sat looking distressed in his dilapidated storeroom.]
The collector's distress stemmed not from the physical injuries he sustained, but from the rampage of the Infinity Stones, which resulted in most of his collection either disappearing or being destroyed.
The collector was holding a green cup, seemingly drinking something, when a dog in a spacesuit ran up to him and licked his face a few times.
"Are you just going to let him lick it like that?"
The collector looked toward the source of the sound and saw a duck sitting on the glass counter.
【"nausea."】
The duck was imitating the collector, drinking from a green cup.
"It felt great, but it was a bit spicy."
[After the mysterious duck finished speaking, the light screen dimmed.]
"A duck, gone?!"
Kazuma Sato watched as the screen dimmed again, and the content being shown, apart from a talking duck, was nothing special. Kazuma Sato felt something was off.
"Perhaps that duck will play a very important role later on."
Hachiman Hikigaya felt that the duck must have some purpose.
"Howard the duck."
Zhuge Cong looked at the duck in the light screen. Of course, Zhuge Cong only knew that the duck was called Howard the Duck. He didn't know anything about Howard the Duck's life or abilities.
The light screen lit up again before the others had to wait long.
【“Da da da.”】
[Iron Man Zhuge Cong's leather shoes clicked crisply on the tiled floor of the mental hospital.]
Iron Man Zhuge Cong walked to the front desk and showed them his appointment record.
"Mr. Zhuge Cong, this is Deidara's hospital room."
The nurse led Iron Man Zhuge Cong to the depths of the third basement level of the mental hospital, and then to a large door with a sturdy entrance.
This hospital was originally owned by the Zhuge family, and the three underground levels were specially built by Iron Man in cooperation with the government.
The purpose is to imprison prisoners like Deidara; however, currently, Deidara is the only prisoner being held there.
[Iron Man, Zhuge Cong, looks at Deidara through the glass. Deidara is strapped to the hospital bed, completely bound, with only his mouth and nose exposed; the rest of his body is covered.]
[Deidara's exposed mouth was also an exaggeratedly angled, menacing grin; although it looked like a smile, it gave off a chilling feeling.]
"..."
Deidara stared in silence at his reflection in the light screen, showing himself locked up on the third basement level of a mental hospital. Had he really been tricked into this state by Orochimaru and Sasori?!
Deidara himself fell silent upon seeing this, wrapped up like a dumpling, only revealing an exaggerated expression.
"It seems that the drug Deidara took has quite a few side effects."
Deidara remained silent, but Orochimaru spoke first.
"Deidara is already taking a break, so my medicine won't have any psychological side effects later on."
Orochimaru's words did not comfort Deidara's broken heart; instead, they made Deidara feel even worse.
"You have the nerve to say that? I've become a villain, and I still look like this. Who do you think did this?"
