Chapter 751: Marvel: Awakening the Little Universe at the Start, Chapter 409

Under the guidance of the Enterprise's projection, the Guardians of the Galaxy crossed the deck, walked through the silver sci-fi corridors, and finally arrived in the bridge chamber.

Instantly.

The few members of the Guardians of the Galaxy were each shocked by the extreme sci-fi aesthetic of the Enterprise's bridge.

"Peter!"

Drax the Destroyer, who looked just like a red rune warrior, saw Hawk and immediately called out to Star-Lord beside him: "Look, it's that godly man from just now."

Peter and Gamora exchanged glances, then looked at Hawk: "Thank you, Captain, for the rescue."

Hearing this, Hawk laughed: "I am not the captain; my wife is. My wife has never seen a talking raccoon or a little tree, so she wants to see."

A raccoon?

Who are you talking about?

Standing beside Gamora, with Baby Groot on his shoulder, Rocket paused slightly, then bared his teeth at Hawk.

"Hey, I'm damn well not a raccoon."

"I am Groot!"

On Rocket's shoulder, the very Q-cute little tree Groot clenched both fists, roaring with a look that was both milky and fierce.

Gwen looked at the flustered Rocket and the milky-fierce little tree; she did not find them scary at all, but rather quite cute.

Because Hawk was by her side.

As long as Hawk was there, Gwen felt that even if a Tyrannosaurus rex were resurrected, she would not feel how scary it was.

However...

"What race is this raccoon? I looked in the Universal Race Manual given by the Nova Corps, and there seems to be no corresponding entry. But I did find that little tree; it is from the Flora Colossus race."

"No race at all; just a genetically modified raccoon."

Hawk laughed, looked at Gwen: "Just like the half-cyborg tied up on their ship; they have all undergone modification. That half-cyborg had most of his body replaced with mechanical parts by Thanos."

Hearing the name Thanos, Gwen seemed to think of something and looked at Hawk.

"This Thanos, isn't he the one you mentioned, the mastermind behind Loki leading the Chitauri to invade our Earth in 2012?"

"Him."

"Wait."

Hawk and Gwen's conversation was not kept secret from the few members of the Guardians of the Galaxy, so both of their conversation contents were heard by the Guardians of the Galaxy.

Star-Lord Peter, hearing the word Earth, after a moment of surprise, became somewhat excited and looked at Hawk and Gwen: "Wait, Earth, are you Earthlings?"

Gwen turned her head to look at the somewhat excited Star-Lord Peter and became curious as well: "Yes, we are Earthlings. Do you know Earth too?"

This could not be blamed on Gwen's curiosity.

Mainly because while honeymooning on Xandar, Gwen had met several alien races with the same itinerary as them who came to Xandar for tourism.

Gwen had also asked those various cosmic races if they knew of Earth.

The result was that not a single person knew of Earth.

No.

They did know Earth's name in the universe, Terra, but they had never been there, nor had they ever seen any life form from Terra.

In their words, Terra was located in the most remote, most desolate part of the universe, belonging to the suburbs outside the suburbs; no one would be willing to waste energy and foolishly run to that backwater corner.

What would you go there for? Besides wasting fuel money for nothing, there is absolutely no meaning.

When Gwen heard this statement at the time, although she did not show anything, Earth was after all their home, and being spoken of like that by alien groups was somewhat heartbreaking.

So—

Suddenly, seeing that the rescued person seemed to know Earth, how could Gwen not be surprised while suddenly feeling a little surprise?

Gwen looked seriously at Peter's appearance, then seemed to think of something.

"Are you also an Earthling?"

"What? I am not an Earthling; I am from Missouri."

"..."

Hearing Star-Lord's answer, Gwen subconsciously fell silent for a moment, then was speechless: "So that is Earth; are you also a Federation citizen?"

As everyone knows.

Missouri is a state of the Federation, so after being speechless, Gwen's expression became somewhat happy.

She never expected to meet a fellow townsman here.

However...

Gwen was now even more curious: "How did you leave Earth?"

After all, up to now, the farthest place Earth has gone to is the Moon.

And that was already last century; there was only that one time. Since then, Earth's technology seemed locked, and it has never been able to step out of Earth again.

Star-Lord opened his mouth; perhaps also because of the old saying about fellow townsmen meeting, he briefly told the story of how he was stolen from Earth by Yondu back in the day.

Although because of his mother's matter, Star-Lord has always felt that Earth gave him only sad memories, so even after breaking free from Yondu's control, he never thought of returning to Earth for a look.

But this does not mean other things.

After all, in the vast universe, meeting someone of the same race is still a very happy thing.

For example, the Flora Colossus race where Tree Groot is from.

Gwen had seen two others while honeymooning on Xandar, but those two Flora Colossi were already adults; they looked rather ferocious, not as cute as the current Baby Groot.

In short.

The universe is vast, there are many races; even Gamora can sometimes meet other members of the Zehoberei race.

Thanos only slaughtered half the population of the Zehoberei race; he did not wipe them out completely.

However, just as Star-Lord began to tell his story, the Enterprise's projection descended, reminding Gwen.

"Lady, it is time for your meal."

"Oh, alright, thank you."

Gwen came to her senses and thanked the Enterprise, which had just reminded her.

After confirming her pregnancy, the hospital on Planet Xandar, based on Gwen's examination results, listed the daily nutritional requirements in a table and established a schedule.

Once the Enterprise's projection vanished.

Gwen seemed to think of something; she first glanced at Hawk, and after seeing Hawk shrug to indicate his stance, she then looked at Peter and the others, smiling as she invited them: "Have you eaten? If not, my husband and I invite you to dine with us."

Hearing this, Peter exchanged a glance with Gamora beside him.

Gamora was just about to signal Peter with her eyes to refuse; after all, someone who knew about Thanos, was still alive and well, and even possessed such a sci-fi ship even by universal standards, did not look like an ordinary person at all.

Then...

Before Gamora could speak, Star-Lord accepted Gwen's invitation with a look of delight.

"Alright, thank you."

"You're welcome."

Gwen smiled slightly, took Hawk, who had been standing silently beside her, by the hand, walked ahead, and led the Guardians of the Galaxy to the crew mess hall located on the lower deck of the Enterprise.

The Enterprise's crew mess hall was also perfectly replicated by Hawk, one hundred percent matching the Enterprise from the films.

So—

The food replicator naturally existed as well.

But there was a small issue within this.

Just as Star-Lord stood before the food replicator, opening Earth with a hint of expectation according to regional specialties and finding Missouri cuisine.

Gamora, beside him, looked at 'Andoria' and 'Vulcan' on the food replicator's screen and whispered to Drax the Destroyer nearby: "Are there these two races in the universe?"

The answer was definitely no.

At the very least, in the current 616 main universe, there were no Andorians or Vulcans.

But in the Star Trek universe, Andorians and Vulcans, together with Earthlings, founded the United Federation of Planets.

Hawk's manifestation was a perfect manifestation.

So...

Naturally, the food replicator on the Enterprise ship manifested specialty dishes from Andorians and Vulcans.

However, this was just a small interlude.

Because after Star-Lord learned that Hawk and Gwen were of the same race, he was less vigilant and less confrontational during the meal.

Listening to Star-Lord recount the story of how he was kidnapped from Earth, Gwen's expression provided corresponding feedback as he spoke.

Simply put, emotional value.

In the role of a listener, Gwen was always professional, and Star-Lord's subsequent tales of wandering the universe did indeed attract Gwen.

Gamora looked at Hawk and said, "Thank you for rescuing our ship."

Rocket Raccoon, eating crayfish from his plate, immediately followed up: "Yes, and thank you for treating us to this meal."

Baby Groot, who had dipped his branch into a cup of juice, also looked at Hawk: "I am Groot!"

Drax the Destroyer also reacted at this moment; his face, covered in red runes but looking somewhat simple, broke into an even simpler smile: "Yes, thank you."

Hawk smiled slightly and said, "You're welcome."

And then there was nothing more.

As everyone knows.

His personality is introverted; compared to being skilled in fists and feet, he is not skilled in speech.

The most important point.

He had no intention of befriending the Guardians of the Galaxy, let alone taking the initiative to befriend them.

So...

Compared to chatting and such, Hawk had more important matters.

For instance!

The Eighth Sense!
