Dark Eternals

Sylvie sensed the Sentinel Robot’s power and was overjoyed. "This robot is mine from now on."

"When it comes to greed, you’re very much like Loki."

Wang Bert smiled. "Fine, it’s yours. In a couple of days, go to Old Tony’s place and serve as insurance."

Sylvie nodded. "Alright. Oh, and keep an eye on Loki. Don’t let her escape."

Loki secretly snorted. Was there anywhere in the world that could hold Loki? She was the queen of escape.

Wang Bert laughed. "Don’t worry. I cast Space Magic on her. Once she gets more than five kilometers away from Thor, she’ll immediately be teleported back to his side."

Loki was dumbfounded. She stared at Wang Bert in grief and indignation. You bastard, you have no martial ethics.

After settling that matter, Wang Bert left the room to find Nebula. He wanted to use the Guardians of the Galaxy’s intelligence network to locate Thanos.

Why not ask Star-Lord and the others? Because they were idiots. In the Guardians of the Galaxy, Nebula was the only normal one. Well, normal robot.

Nebula readily agreed, leaving Wang Bert quite satisfied. At that moment, the Eternals walked over. Sersi, at the front, respectfully said, "Honored Creator God, we wish to become your attendants."

Wang Bert asked, "Attendants? Are you planning to betray the Celestial Group?"

Phastos said in a low voice, "If the Celestial Group had not deceived us, we would never have betrayed Them. In the past, serving the Celestial Group was always our greatest honor."

"The Celestial Group’s path differs from ours. We do not wish to destroy any planet, much less be brainwashed over and over again."

Sersi led the others to kneel before Wang Bert. Then she said, "Honored Creator God, we offer you our loyalty. So long as you continue protecting the world, we will never betray you."

"Never betray!"

The Eternals shouted in unison—the Eternals were tools created by the Celestial Group, and obedience was embedded in their genes. They needed a master, and Wang Bert was undoubtedly the master best suited to them.

Because Wang Bert was the Creator God, even if he was somewhat improper.

The Eternals’ shouts drew everyone’s attention. No one found the scene strange. They were simply too familiar with Wang Bert; otherwise, they too would have wanted to offer him their knees.

For Westerners, worshipping gods was perfectly normal.

"I can accept your allegiance, and I can help you fend off the Celestial Group."

Wang Bert said, "However, I will not take you out of this universe. After I leave in the future, you must continue protecting this universe as my attendants."

"We are very willing to protect this universe."

Sersi and the others lowered their heads and swore allegiance. Wang Bert nodded in satisfaction, then waved his hand. A Blood Dragon mark appeared on the back of every Eternal’s hand at the same time. It was his emblem.

From then on, the Earth Eternals officially became Wang Bert’s divine servants. The Eternals were extremely excited about this—they had backers again.

Everyone applauded in congratulations. Former Time Variance Authority judge Ravonna said enviously, "I want to become the Blood God’s divine servant too, but unfortunately, he doesn’t think much of me."

"The Blood God won’t care about that. As long as you serve him, he’ll protect you. Although the Blood God is a god, his humanity clearly outweighs his divinity. It’s a pity he isn’t a god of our universe. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be so much bullshit."

Nick Fury said. He and Ravonna got along very well, and he planned to take her on as his student.

Nick Fury was getting old, after all. He needed a successor, and Ravonna, this Black woman, was a good fit. Her heart was dark enough, and like him, she was willing to sacrifice everything for her ideals.

In a bar on some planet in the universe, an exceptionally handsome man in a red cape had his arms around two beautiful women as he boasted about his heroic deeds. "You know the super-wanted criminal Black Roger? I once defeated him."

"Really, Lord Starfox?"

The two women asked admiringly, their eyes full of stars. They clearly adored the man in the red cape, Starfox Eros.

Beside them, the dwarf elf Pip rolled his eyes as he drank. How had he ended up with a partner like this? Every day, he was either chasing women or on his way to chase women.

"Bring me more wine! As much as you’ve got!"

Pip shouted at the bartender. Hearing that, Starfox clicked his tongue in annoyance. How had he ended up with a partner like this? Every day, he was either drinking or on his way to drink.

"Of course it’s true."

Starfox paid Pip little attention and continued flirting with the two beauties. Unlike his brother Thanos, he loved fame and beautiful women. As for everything else, he did not care in the slightest.

He was a cosmic playboy. He had hooked up with far more women than Star-Lord and Iron Man combined.

Just then, a tall blonde woman with an absolutely stunning figure walked into the bar. Under everyone’s gaze, she went straight to Starfox and said, "The Eternals’ abilities were not given to you for picking up women. Using your powers to pick up women is low-class."

Starfox’s ability—Love God—could, simply put, make women fall in love with him.

"You are… Eternal Tina? Huh, why is your aura so powerful?"

Starfox first stared at Tina in fascination, then sensed something and asked in shock.

"Because I am the strongest Tina."

The strongest Tina under the Celestial Group smiled. "Come with me. Someone wants to see you."

Starfox crossed his legs and arrogantly said, "Who wants to see me? I do not meet people easily. But if you’re willing to drink a few glasses with me, I might change my mind."

"Sure."

S Tina smiled. Then she raised her hand, and Cosmic Energy transformed into hundreds of spears that shot toward everyone in the bar. Each spear produced a massive sonic boom, and the surrounding glass shattered with loud crashes.

The Tina on Earth could only create one energy weapon, but if S Tina went all out, she could easily destroy an entire city with energy weapons.

"Damn it!"

When S Tina suddenly attacked, Starfox and Pip’s expressions changed drastically. Pip used Teleportation immediately, while Starfox hugged the two beauties beside him and fell to the ground.

Starfox and Pip could react, but the other patrons could not. They were all pierced through by the energy weapons, and the weapons’ overwhelming kinetic force caused them to explode on the spot.

A bar that had been bustling moments ago instantly became a horror movie scene. Blood and chunks of flesh were everywhere. S Tina wore an expression of enjoyment. She liked killing.

Unlike ordinary Eternals, who regarded protection as their duty, the strongest Eternals preferred destruction. In fact, that was why they could become the strongest Eternals—they had broken free of the shackles, the shackles the Celestial Group had left in their genes.

The Celestial Group was very interested in the strongest Eternals. They studied them while sending them to destroy troubled planets, causing the strongest Eternals to become increasingly brutal.

The strongest Eternals could also be called the Dark Eternals.

Starfox climbed up from the ground and angrily shouted, "Are you crazy? What are you doing?"

"She’s a lunatic. We need to leave now."

Pip grabbed Starfox’s hand, preparing to take him away, only to suddenly discover that he could not move. At that moment, S Druig in the corner said, "A dwarf elf? An interesting creature. For a while, you will be my servant. Once I grow tired of playing with you, I’ll let you leave."

"Pip is my partner."

Starfox took out an Energy Gun and pointed it at S Druig. "Release your control over Pip, or don’t blame me for getting nasty."

S Druig looked disdainful and could not even be bothered to respond. At that moment, S Ikaris entered the bar. He glanced at the two beauties Starfox had saved, and they were instantly burned to ashes.

Starfox was furious and shocked, yet he did not dare say anything. He knew very well that Ikaris was the strongest of all Eternals.

After burning the two beauties to death, S Ikaris asked Starfox, "Are you sure you want to fight us?"

Starfox obediently put away his Energy Gun. "Such a huge display, even clearing out the place—who exactly wants to see me?"

S Tina said, "Your brother Thanos wants to see you."

Starfox cried out, "Thanos? That’s impossible. He’s already dead."

"He died, but then he came back to life."

S Tina could not be bothered to explain. "Makkari, take us back."

"Alright."

S Makkari’s voice rang out. The next moment, every living person in the bar vanished at once.

Not only could S Makkari speak, she had also expanded from the speed field into the space field. In terms of strength, she was far stronger than the Makkari on Earth.

On New Sanctuary, Thanos looked at the newly appeared Starfox and said, "My brother, it has been a long time."

"Who wants to see you?"

Starfox first curled his lips, then asked in astonishment, "Wait, you’re not the Thanos of this universe. Your aura is wrong."

"I am Thanos of all universes, including this one."

Thanos said, "No more nonsense. I want you to go to Earth and handle something for me."

Starfox snorted. "Thanos, you should know I never listen to you."

Thanos said, "If you do not listen, I will kill that dwarf elf, turn you into a woman, and sell you at a planetary port to entertain customers. You should know that I never lie."

"You’re as vicious as ever."

Starfox cursed, then said, "For Pip’s sake, I can help you. But afterward, you must let us go."

Pip was not touched by this at all, because he knew Starfox too well. This guy only knew how to say nice things.

"Fine. As long as you complete my task, I will release you immediately."

Thanos said. Starfox sighed in relief. Thanos might be a super Tyrant, but he rarely lied. Just like when he attacked planets, he always plainly stated that he was going to kill half their people.

Starfox asked, "What do you want me to do?"

"Do this…"

Thanos explained the matter in detail, then said, "To be safe, I will tamper with your soul. If you dare reveal anything about us, both you and Pip will die."

Pip shouted unhappily, "Why do I die if he reveals something? I refuse to accept that!"

Thanos turned and gave Pip a cold glance. Pip felt as if an unparalleled beast had fixed its eyes on him, and he could not stop trembling.

"I do not like being interrupted when I am speaking."

Thanos said, "Druig, tamper with Starfox’s soul."

"No problem. A trivial matter."

S Druig walked over to Starfox and said with a smile, "Don’t be nervous. It won’t hurt. Just endure it."

"Why do I feel like I say that all the time?"

Starfox complained. At that moment, a powerful mental force forcibly branded his soul. The pain made him scream, and he fell to his knees, drenched in cold sweat.

"Done."

S Druig said, "If he dares resist, I will know immediately."

Thanos said, "Good. Makkari, send him to the port and let him take a spaceship to Earth himself."

"Alright." S Makkari nodded and vanished with Starfox, who was still somewhat confused about what was going on.

"Thanos, is all this really necessary? I do not deny that the Blood God is strong, but with so many of us joining forces, could we really lose to him?"

S Gilgamesh asked, "No matter how strong he is, he is merely at the peak of godhood. More importantly, he is alone."

"Let me give you some advice: never underestimate the Blood God. He is far more terrifying than you imagine. If you want to defeat him, you must make every possible preparation."

Thanos said, "Rashly going after him now will only add to his record. I escaped last time, but I may not have another chance next time."

S Gilgamesh said excitedly, "The more you say that, the more I want to meet the Blood God as soon as possible. Fighting powerful opponents is what I love most."

Thanos looked at S Gilgamesh speechlessly. This guy had been beaten up by him just two days ago, and now he could not wait to find the Blood God. Did he have some strange hobby? Shaking his head, Thanos asked S Phastos, "I gave you all the information on the Blood God. How long until you can develop a device to counter him?"

"Before you recover, I will definitely develop an anti-Blood God device."

S Phastos said confidently. He was a true god of craftsmen, and the items he created could even kill ancient gods.

Thanos was quite satisfied. "Good. As long as you help me kill the Blood God, I will give you hope—hope of breaking free from the Celestial Group."

"Really?"

All the strongest Eternals’ eyes lit up at once. They wanted to rebel against the Celestial Group every moment of every day. The problem was that they could not defeat Them.

The Celestial Group might have acted meekly before Wang Bert, but that was Wang Bert. To the vast majority of lifeforms, even gods, the Celestial Group was an unreachable existence.

Thanos said, "Of course it’s true. I, Thanos, never lie."

"The question is, will the Celestial Group give you that much face? We are extremely important to the gods."

S Kingo said, "Nearly all of the Celestial Group’s dirty work is done by us. We are the best butchers in Their hands."

Thanos was somewhat displeased, because he knew the Celestial Group would not give him that favor. After all, he was not the Blood God—if the Blood God asked, the Celestial Group would most likely agree.

"Before I leave this universe, I will give you a seed, a seed with the potential to become a Creator God. As for whether you can seize that opportunity, that depends on you."

Thanos said, "Of course, the prerequisite is that you help me kill the Blood God and Iron Man, and obtain Materialism Power!"

The strongest Eternals exchanged glances, then nodded in unison. "No problem. We will help you deal with the Blood God and Iron Man."

Previously, it had only been a mission. Now they were fighting for their own future, and the strongest Eternals’ fighting spirit rose to unprecedented heights.

Thanos was very satisfied with this. This was exactly what he wanted. To deal with the Blood God, they had to go all out, because that was the Blood God!
