Chapter 730
"Thump!"
Having missed his target, Gilgamesh stumbled through a half-turn under the pull of momentum, losing his balance and crashing to the ground.
Embarrassing!
Infuriating!
Lying on the ground, Gilgamesh felt like he had died of social shame.
"Bang, bang, bang!"
Kingo unleashed energy blasts, strafing the dense crowd of 'Su Quan's.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"
Phastos threw out golden rings; the rings transformed in mid-air, splitting from one into two, two into four, four into eight, flying densely toward the dense crowd of 'Su Quan's.
"Swish, swish, swish!"
Sersi bent down, touching the ground with both hands, turning the once-solid earth beneath the 'Su Quan's into a quicksand swamp, causing a large group to sink in instantly.
One after another, the Su Quans were struck and vanished.
A moment later, the last Su Quan was hit by Kingo's energy blast, dissolving into an afterimage amidst ripples and disappearing.
Wait, they all disappeared?
Then where is the real Su Quan?
Kingo and the others were startled, looking left and right to find Su Quan's figure, but they found nothing.
He is gone!
The sky was gloomy, with dark clouds rolling.
The Eternals glanced at Wanda and Thena, whose battle had reached a white-hot intensity, and vigilantly and uneasily searched for Su Quan's figure everywhere.
"Do you guys feel like something is wrong? Why do I feel like something is missing..."
"The Domo!"
"The Domo is gone!"
Sersi's question made the others react quickly; the Domo starship, which had been hovering in the air, was actually gone!
Su Quan is gone, and the Domo starship is gone too; if anyone says this is a coincidence, who would believe it?!
Sprite was anxious: "That guy stole our starship. Without the starship, how are we supposed to return to Olympia after completing the mission?"
As soon as she said this, the others became nervous as well.
"We will definitely get the starship back; don't forget, his companion is still here..."
Ajak calmly reassured everyone; as long as they captured the woman fighting Thena, the other party would likely show up, and then they could use this woman to trade back their starship.
Ajak looked toward the direction of the battle, suddenly widening her eyes, revealing an expression of disbelief.
The woman...
Is gone!
The woman fighting Thena was actually gone!
"Thena, where did that woman go?" Ajak asked in a condensed voice.
Thena frowned and shook her head; the battle was intense, and there was only a one or two-second gap during their exchange, but it was precisely that one or two-second gap that allowed the opponent to disappear before her eyes without any warning.
"It's over now; our only bargaining chip is gone."
Sprite sat on the ground in despair and defeat; although the others weren't as direct as her, their complexions and expressions were uglier than the next.
Having just arrived on this planet, with the mission not yet officially started, they were first crushed by someone, and then their way home was cut off; it would be strange if their expressions were good.
Truly, their expedition had failed before it even began...
"Bang!"
Ikaris descended from the sky, looking suspiciously at the depressed and ugly-faced group, and asked in confusion: "What happened? Where are those two people from just now?"
"We had a fight, we lost, the opponent stole our starship, and we don't know where they went."
"What?!"
Ikaris exclaimed in disbelief, then shouted sharply and angrily: "With so many of you, you actually lost to them? And let them steal the starship? Damn it, don't let me see him, otherwise..."
"Otherwise what?"
The voice answering came from behind; Ikaris saw the surprise on the others' faces and, without thinking, turned around and threw a punch.
"Thud!"
A colorful shield manifested in front of Su Quan, blocking Ikaris's punch.
At the same time, an ability was dropped: Cosmic Energy.
Thena raised an eyebrow, a flash of surprise crossing her cold and beautiful face; this manifested shield, apart from the color, seemed no different from the one she manifested, giving a feeling of being from the same source.
Ikaris's eyes glowed with golden light, his beams ready to fire, staring coldly at Su Quan: "Hand over our starship!"
"Whoosh—"
The answer to him was a colorful void beam.
As the Eternal version of Superman, Ikaris's reaction was indeed very fast; Superman can catch the Flash, and Ikaris can also catch Makkari.
Ikaris saw Su Quan fire the beam and reacted with the fastest speed possible, but he still couldn't completely dodge it.
A squelching sound rang out; the void beam pierced Ikaris's left shoulder, the huge impact making him grunt, and then he was sent flying backward rapidly like a cannonball.
After landing, he rolled quite a distance, plowing a long furrow.
Ignoring Ikaris, this future traitor, Su Quan's gaze swept over the Eternals one by one, finally stopping on the team leader, Ajak.
The Eternals have no concept of age because they do not age, nor do they die, but their factory settings are all different.
Ajak is the leader of the Eternal squad and the only one who knows the truth about the mission; she was endowed with certain characteristics when she was created.
For example, her ability is healing.
For another example, her appearance is slightly more mature than the others, and her temperament is also very normal.
She gives Su Quan a feeling somewhat like Aunt May from the main world; she is equally charming the more mature she is, and her biggest feature is that she is big!
Even wearing a uniform that doesn't show off her figure, it is still hard to hide her magnificence!
"Swish—"
Su Quan waved his hand, and the surrounding space instantly rippled like the surface of a mirror or water.
"Want to chat?" Su Quan invited Ajak.
Ajak looked at the others, then at the rippling space, and nodded in agreement.
Su Quan and Ajak entered the Mirror Dimension; Ajak looked around unobtrusively and discovered that this seemed to be a special dimension connected to reality.
She could see the others outside, but the people outside could not see them.
"What do you want to talk about?" Ajak looked at Su Quan and asked first.
Su Quan didn't speak, just looked at her with that gaze that seemed to pierce straight into the soul; at first, she didn't feel anything, but as the gaze lasted longer and longer, she couldn't help but feel as if everything about her had been seen through.
"I am very clear about the purpose Arishem sent you to Earth for: to gestate the sleeping Celestial Tiamut and wait for the Emergence."
Su Quan's voice was unhurried, yet it was like a heavy hammer, directly smashing Ajak into a daze.
The matter of Arishem and gestating the sleeping Celestial Tiamut, let alone the natives of this planet, even their Eternal squad only she knew the truth.
He, he actually knows?!
Ajak couldn't help but ask in a condensed voice: "Who exactly are you, and why do you know about this?!"
"Who I am, you can go ask Arishem, but whether you can stay on Earth, you have to ask me."
Su Quan was not prepared to stop the Eternals from completing their mission; after all, among the Eternals, except for Ikaris the traitor, everyone else had fallen in love with Earth and humanity during their long lives on Earth.
Even if, thousands of years later, these Eternals didn't stop the birth of the sleeping Celestial Tiamut like in the movie, Su Quan would still take action to resolve it.
First for the ability, second to enhance the All-Black the Necrosword.
More importantly, Earth is his territory; how could it be destroyed because of a mere Celestial?
"You, you don't intend to stop us?"
Ajak was very surprised; she thought that since the other party knew the truth, he would definitely stop them.
Su Quan replied indifferently: "That depends on whether you can satisfy me."
Ajak breathed a sigh of relief: "What do you want?"
Su Quan thought for a moment and revealed a faint smile: "I want you to let me take whatever I want!"
