Chapter 518: The Purpose of the Witch King 1
"You mean, you don't want to destroy the gem?"
Steve stared at John, "This is dangerous, John."
"You will destroy the weapon that can defeat the enemy. That is the danger." John smiled slightly.
Steve said: "If Thanos gets his hands on the Stone, half the life in the universe will be wiped out."
"Oh?" John said lightly, "Then what do you think we should use to deal with Thanos who has the gem, your shield?"
John knocked on the gem and said: "The best way to deal with the enemy is never to destroy the weapons, but to use them."
Steve took a deep breath. It seemed that John had no intention of destroying the gem from the beginning.
Moreover, he stared at the space gem and asked: "Where is the Cosmic Cube?"
"A friend of mine gave it to me." John raised his eyebrows and said, "You seem to have forgotten that I also lent the Mind Stone to SHIELD."
Yes, the loss of the Mind Stone was caused by future Steve.
When the Mind Stone was obtained by John, SHIELD was forced to take it away in the name of borrowing it.
Later, the gem and Vision merged, and no one mentioned this matter.
Deep down in their hearts, they all agreed that this thing belonged to Vision and the Avengers.
But John now reveals the ownership of the Mind Stone, which reminds Steve of this incident.
No matter from which point of view, John is qualified to decide the outcome of this gem.
Even with the Space Stone, the Avengers have no name to intervene.
Because that thing was the current queen of Asgard, Hela personally gave it to John.
"John, your behavior is too risky."
"You will find that I am right." John walked past Steve, "Or are you doubting me?"
Suspect?
What do you suspect?
Steve knew it.
He recalls a conversation he had with Nick Fury before he faked his death.
"He is a dangerous man, and his disregard for the rules and access to taboos make him more dangerous than anyone I have ever met."
Nick Fury said to Steve: "He's definitely not a hero."
John will not be a hero.
He carries the entire magical kingdom on his back, which naturally determines that he will not protect the world like any superhero.
Just like the Black Panthers, they never take the initiative to intervene in the affairs of any country. They are all kings from the perspective of the people.
Steve is a just man, just like he once questioned that Nick Fury's actions were not just.
Facing Nick Fury, Steve could voice his doubts.
But when he heard John's inquiry, he could only respond silently.
John had never done anything wrong. Strictly speaking, John was the first person Steve saw in this new era.
The Witch King has obtained the gem. Even after Thanos is defeated, what should be done with the ownership of the gem?
Countries are not going to sit back and watch the Magic Kingdom have this unlimited energy.
After defeating Thanos, will a war begin within this world?
Steve was distraught.
Seeing that he didn't respond, John walked out.
Instead of going to the superhero side, he came to the other side of the Wakanda Palace.
T'Challa and Percy are here.
Te'Challa, who had taken off his Black Panther armor, was talking to the Minister of Magic. When he saw John coming, he nodded, "Your Majesty the Witch King."
The three people here are all people who are fundamentally different from those superheroes.
Looking down at the war-torn land of Wakanda, T'Challa said: "It's full of scars and blood, and death seeps into the land."
John asked, "Do you regret it?"
Te'Challa smiled, "No, I don't regret it. I protected the whole world. This is the glory of Wakanda."
"You are selfless and respectable, King." John's eyes were deep, "You should know that those outside who covet Wakanda's resources are trying to steal something all the time."
Wakanda has protected the world as a battlefield, but the world may not be grateful.
All major countries covet vibranium, and they want to obtain the omnipotent material.
After opening up, Wakanda is bound to attract the minions of those greedy guys.
Spies, raids, public opinion and even waging war.
No one will remember Wakanda's contribution. Their more thought may be to kill you while you are sick.
As the king, T'Challa also understood this. He smiled openly: "If I don't stand up, who will?"
America?
They may feel that they have contributed, and they can move their fingers to allow the Avengers to appear. This is their kindness.
So merciful that not a single fighter jet showed up.
What is ridiculous is that the country that claims to be a beacon to the world did not show up.
On the contrary, the Magic Kingdom and a country unknown to the world like Wakanda formed an army to stop them.
"Your Majesty the Witch King," Te'Challa looked into the distance, "our battle is not over yet."
"I know, it's more than that."
"I know you don't want that either," Te'Challa said.
John looked at Te'Challa and smiled, "You are a qualified monarch. If you are not a monarch, you are also an excellent philosopher."
"I really don't intend to stop like this." John reached out and stroked the ring, with a deep look in his eyes, "We are not people who will remain indifferent after being beaten."
T'Challa asked, "What are you going to do?"
"The offense and defense have changed. If Kou can go, I can go too!" John said with ambition. "From what I know about the Land of Nothingness, it will take quite a while for Thanos to get there."
"No one has stipulated that we can only be beaten passively." A cold light flashed in John's eyes, "We can also invade."
"We don't have enough spacecraft for space travel," T'Challa said.
"Spaceship?" John smiled, and the silver gradually covered his right hand. He smiled, "We have the space gem."
The gem lit up, and T'Challa nodded, "I will bring Wakanda's most elite troops."
"Let your troops rest, Your Majesty the King." John shook his head and said, "They need to fill the sorrow in their hearts."
"Besides, this is the age of superheroes."
John's eyes fell on Steve who was walking out of the palace, and he said calmly, "We happen to have the most luxurious superhero team in the world."
John narrowed his eyes.
Thanos can bring people to the atrium, and he can also bring people there.
If nothing else, just talk about this lineup, Thanos will get slapped twice when he comes.
With the space gem and the rainbow bridge, John can completely turn his back on himself.
The strength of Thanos's army was damaged, and the five Obsidian generals were wiped out.
Thanos doesn't know all this yet.
There is a feeling between the gems.
This can be confirmed after John obtains the Space Stone.
Moreover, John also knew the whereabouts of the Soul Stone that Thanos didn't know about.
Whichever it is, it's enough for Thanos to look for John.
In this case, let John choose the cemetery for the overlord of the universe.
"Percy," John said to Percy, "you go back first."
The stars are the highest combat power of the magic country. If the stars are taken to the Titans, the magic country will come to a standstill.
This kind of thing is not allowed to happen.
Percy hesitated for a while, then nodded and said, "I understand, Witch King."
He turned around to leave, took two steps and then stopped.
He turned back to John and said, "We'll meet you at the Leaky Cauldron, John."
John raised the corners of his mouth and waved his hands, "Remember to spend more time with your child, Stella has reached puberty."
T'Challa looked at Percy's leaving figure and said to John, "You have a very good minister."
"No," John said, "I have the best friends in the world."
This is an enviable friendship.
John is also prepared to deal with Thanos early.
The gem in his right hand lit up.
A blue light appeared behind John and enveloped John.
The next second, John appeared on a deserted planet.
He touched his chin, "It seems Thanos's childhood was miserable enough."
Pulling out his wand and tapping his forehead, John said thoughtfully, "Let me see how this place can be transformed."
He wants to give Thanos a surprise.
...
Thanos didn't get the news he wanted.
Gamora gave her memory to the wizard for safekeeping, which made Thanos miss.
With the blessing of magic, even if Thanos kills Nebula, Gamora can't say anything.
The only way is to get all the news from the wizard's mouth.
"John Wick."
Thanos sat on the steps below the throne, rubbing the stone with his fingers.
His expression was deep, and the gems on the Infinity Gauntlet reminded him of the few steps left to reach his ideal goal.
There was no news from the five Obsidian generals sent to the atrium. He planned to return to Titan first to receive the other gems and then go to the atrium to find the whereabouts of the soul gem obtained by the wizard.
Just after Thanos left, Gamora caressed Nebula's face.
Nebula looked at her sister, "He must be killed."
"Gamora, get out of here."
Gamora looked at her sister, "I will find a way to take you away."
