2129 Tough Thanos, a Lethal Weapon About to Be Mobilized
However, Big Dipper’s momentum came to an abrupt stop, and he was even forced back several steps by the purple light beam.
Also, unlike with ordinary physical attacks, he couldn’t repel the energy beam emitted by the Power Stone, and could only split it open.
From this point of view, a Power Stone that didn’t care about science at all was indeed troublesome. It was a counter to his strong physical control.
But Big Dipper wasn’t the only one present.
A second after Thanos used the Power Stone on the glove to attack Big Dipper, Knight appeared behind him and kicked at his leg.
Thanos swung his left hand, and the double-headed blade spun like a windmill as it swung at Knight.
Knight quickly retreated and happened to land on Stormbreaker’s haft.
This divine artifact which Thor had personally forged was much easier to deal with than the Mjölnir hammer which his father had given to him.
Knight’s contact with it didn’t trigger a counterattack from Stormbreaker at all, and it was obediently kicked toward Thor.
Thor, who had just jumped, stretched out his hand and grabbed the battle ax, and then followed up with a powerful slash.
Looking at the divine power of lightning on the battle ax, Thanos didn’t dare use the power of the Stones to block it. Instead, he chose to face it with the double-headed blade which he trusted the most.
Bang!
The blade and ax collided, and sparks flew.
Thor’s eyes burned white as he roared, “Thanos, I’m going to cut off your head…”
Bang!
Thanos indifferently drew back his right fist, which glowed with a purple light. “It seems you can’t do it.”
Thor, on the other hand, had already been sent flying dozens of meters away, and he rolled several times over the floor before he stopped. He even dropped Stormbreaker.
Thanos, who had succeeded in his attack, suddenly frowned and turned around.
Bang!
With a dull thud, his huge body was sent flying.
Selina, on the other hand, looked at the severely twisted armor on her right leg and her broken fibulae in surprise. “So hard?”
Just now, she had kicked Thanos with immense strength, but Thanos had been a step faster and blocked her.
He was sent flying, and Selina sustained a minor injury.
Hm, broken bones were indeed a minor injury.
By the time the armor nanoparticles repaired the suit, Gold Nugget had already fixed her broken bone.
With Thor and Selina suppressing Thanos, Knight and Big Dipper attacked him from both sides.
Thanos remained calm. He twisted and pointed his right fist at Knight, while he blocked the katana with his left hand.
Bang! Bang! Boom!
The purple light beam pushed Knight back, but the huge impact with Big Dipper’s katana made Thanos speed up again, and he crashed into the wall.
Thor, who had gotten up, charged forward again. The battle ax flew back into his hand, and he immediately swung it horizontally.
Thanos, who was still stuck in the wall, raised his hand, and the debris on the ground turned into a dark red raven which smashed into Thor’s face.
Thor instinctively raised his hand to protect his face, and slowed down for a moment.
Thanos finally raised the giant blade in his left hand, swept the battle ax aside, and kicked Thor in the chest, sending him flying. He roared, “Ebony Maw!”
Hearing that, Ebony Maw, who was being pursued by Wade, had no choice but to take a risk. He raised his hand and hit a button on the console with his telekinesis.
This was a button to open the central shaft for other people to enter.
Most of the time, they just called people over to clean up the bodies of the enemy, but this time, it was to ease the pressure on Thanos.
Less than ten seconds into the fight, Thanos realized how difficult it was to deal with this team.
Thor, who was holding the Stormbreaker ax, had the extremely powerful divine power of lightning, and was practically unaffected by the Stones in the Infinity Glove.
Big Dipper, who wielded two blades, was very strong and skilled. He also had the strange ability to break through the power of the Stones, and was even more troublesome than Thor.
Knight and Selina were both similarly strong and skilled.
The difference was that Knight’s attacks practically had no holes in them, and he specifically targeted Thanos’s weaknesses.
Selina’s recovery, on the other hand, was clearly unscientific.
When she sent him flying, Thanos had seen how her right calf was broken and bent out of shape. In just a few seconds, it returned to normal, and she jumped around as usual, ready to ambush him again at any moment.
The last one, who was chasing Ebony Maw, didn’t seem to have any obvious advantages. At most, he kept up a steady stream of vulgar speech.
Thanos subconsciously blocked the ‘noise,’ which was probably a psychological tactic — trash talk wasn’t just a specialty of Earth, but a universal disease.
Skye didn’t step forward at all. She remained by the passage opening, and Thanos just treated her as a sentry who was keeping an eye on the team’s escape route.
Even so, four opponents who had the ability to fight him head-on but were hard to kill in one shot were really troublesome.
He had thought that it was already pretty good if there was one person like this on Earth. At most, there might be two. Instead, three had appeared.
Thanos didn’t know how Thor, whose spaceship he had blown up himself, had survived, and had even obtained a new weapon that was too strong.
Thinking quickly, he didn’t hold back anymore. He went all out with the Infinity Glove and his giant blade.
With the energy beam from the Stones, and the invincible double-headed blade, one a long-range, energy weapon and the other a close-range, physical weapon, Thanos held his own under the team’s siege.
On the side, Ebony Maw was as slippery as a ghost. He simply ran in circles and didn’t approach the battle.
However, the debris that he threw out with his telekinesis disrupted the team’s rhythm.
Against a top expert like Thanos, the small gaps this created was enough for him to successfully escape danger.
If things continued this way, it was completely up in the air how long it would take this raid team to kill Thanos.
On the other side, Skye’s notification rang out in everyone’s ears. “More than 500 targets are approaching at high speed. There are a lot of fliers. I estimate that there are at least 1,000 hostile individuals.”
Naturally, she was just as capable of using vibration detection as Luke. The difference was in their levels of precision, and her detection range was up to a kilometer.
This also meant that the soldiers would arrive in dozens of seconds.
That was a pain.
The soldiers weren’t very strong. One of Luke’s clones could easily kill more than 1,000 of them.
But taking care of the small fry was exactly what Thanos wanted them to do.
One less person in their four-man siege would reduce the danger to Thanos by at least one level.
Doing the calculations quickly, Luke finally decided to use the lethal weapon that had yet to shine today – Wade.
Given the current situation, it couldn’t be said that Wade was useless.
His energy guns were a constant threat to Ebony Maw, who wouldn’t die if he was hit, but would at least be injured.
It was also because of this that Ebony Maw could only provide Thanos with backup, and couldn’t turn the situation around.
When facing someone like Ebony Maw, who specialized in distance and harassment tactics, the best chance of taking him down was to catch him by surprise.
In the current situation, Thor and Selina wouldn’t be able to do much to change the situation if they stepped up.
Intermediate Telekinesis was just that difficult to deal with.
Thankfully, Luke could use Intermediate Telekinesis as well; this was something he had obtained from Ebony Maw in 2023.
Today was the perfect opportunity to use the other party’s own tricks against him!
