Raid on the New Sanctuary

"Thanos’s younger brother?"

Everyone was startled. Wang Bert nodded and said, "That’s right. Don’t worry, I’m a good person. Let me introduce my ability while we’re at it: every woman who sees me will fall madly in love with me. You can call me the God of Love."

"Huh?"

Everyone was deeply shocked. Such an overpowered ability actually existed in this world? Old Tony and the others thought of something and all turned to look at Black Widow, Sersi, and the other female Super Heroes. They found them staring in astonishment, clearly not looking like they had fallen in love with Starfox.

"You sure you’re not bragging? You are indeed very handsome, but saying every woman will fall for you has to be a joke."

Black Widow snorted. Wang Bert said, "That’s because I haven’t activated my ability yet."

As Wang Bert spoke, the eyes of every woman present went wide and blank. They gazed at Wang Bert with infatuation, as if he were the most handsome prince charming in the world.

Even more ridiculously, little red stars popped out of all their eyes—not figuratively. Red stars were literally appearing in their eyes, just like anime characters.

"What the hell is this?"

Everyone complained. Tony’s heart stirred, and he said in delighted surprise, "Bert, is that you?"

Looking startled, Wang Bert asked, "You could recognize me from that? Let me state this in advance: I’m not into that stuff."

"Neither am I."

Tony rolled his eyes. Pointing at the red stars, he said disdainfully, "Such terrible taste. Other than you, it couldn’t be anyone else."

"Tony truly knows me."

Wang Bert burst into laughter. He dismissed his ability, and all the beauties returned to normal. Remembering her earlier reaction, Black Widow felt a lingering chill. That feeling just now had been terrible. She had completely lost herself and only wanted to give everything for him.

Black Widow said expressionlessly, "I think he’s a spy. Kill him."

"We think so too."

Sersi, Tina, and the others nodded at once. The men exchanged glances and all drew their weapons. "We completely agree."

Someone this awesome simply could not be allowed to exist in this world. Besides, that ability was far too envy-inducing—cough, cough—it was far too sleazy.

"Like any of you could beat me?"

Wang Bert walked over to Old Tony, shoved him aside, then sat in the seat of honor. "No time to waste. Let me explain the situation first."

Old Tony gave Wang Bert the middle finger and impatiently asked, "Hurry up."

"Here’s what happened…"

Wang Bert briefly explained Starfox and Thanos’s situation, then said, "I sensed that something was wrong with Starfox’s consciousness, so I pulled him into the Mind Sea. After a friendly conversation, he agreed to lend me his body."

Tony asked suspiciously, "A friendly conversation?"

"Of course it was. I, Wang, am famous for convincing people with virtue."

Wang Bert said matter-of-factly, "Forget that. Get your gear ready. We’re going to the New Sanctuary to rescue Captain and Strange, and see if we can kill Thanos while we’re there."

Falcon and the others immediately nodded. "Alright, we’ll leave at once."

Old Tony hesitated before asking, "Blood God, the strongest Eternals are very powerful. Shouldn’t we discuss how to deal with them first?"

"No need. I’m so handsome that those female Eternals will definitely help me deal with the male Eternals."

Wang Bert waved his hand grandly. "In other words, the only one we really need to deal with is Thanos. Old Tony, whether we can take down Thanos this time depends on you."

Old Tony’s eyes lit up. "I’ll give everything I have to kill Thanos."

"Good. We leave immediately. Oh, and the Eternals aren’t coming, in case they get controlled."

"Alright."

Sersi and the others hesitated for a moment before nodding in agreement. They were creations of the Celestial Group, so it was perfectly reasonable for the Celestial Group to be able to control them.

Wang Bert waved his hand and shouted, "Move out! Let the universe witness my handsomeness!"

Everyone fell silent for a moment, then simultaneously gave him the middle finger.

"I am destiny!"

Inside the New Sanctuary, Thanos sat on his throne and snapped his fingers with a blissful expression. Everyone had grown used to it. In their eyes, Thanos was about as crazy as a lunatic.

It was worth noting that not all of the strongest Eternals were aboard the New Sanctuary. Makkari had gone to threaten those planets, forbidding them from selling food to Earth, while Gilgamesh had gone to subdue the Ravagers. Neither was present.

At that moment, a piercing alarm suddenly blared through the New Sanctuary. Phastos cried out in alarm, "Someone is forcibly teleporting onto the New Sanctuary! The energy level is too high—I can’t stop it!"

Everyone was startled. Just as Thanos was about to speak, a large mass of white light appeared in the hall. Then, ‘Starfox’ emerged from the light, leading a group of Super Heroes.

"Starfox?"

Thanos and the others were somewhat stunned. At that moment, Druig and the others hurried over through the teleportation devices inside the New Sanctuary, standing in front of Thanos and confronting the Super Heroes.

"Everyone’s here. Ant-Man, Wasp, go find Steve, Strange, and Starfox’s dwarf and elf companions."

Wang Bert gave the order telepathically. Ant-Man and Wasp immediately borrowed Tony’s Space Energy and slipped away in secret.

"That’s impossible!"

Druig stared at Starfox and shouted in shock, "Weren’t you supposed to be having fun with the waitstaff at the hotel?"

"Sorry, the consciousness you left in the body was caught in an illusion."

Wang Bert placed a finger against his brow and gently pulled outward, drawing out a clump of consciousness. Then, smiling, he crushed it. Druig could not help screaming as he glared at Wang Bert with a twisted expression.

Phastos stared at Wang Bert and asked in a low voice, "Who are you? Starfox definitely doesn’t have this kind of ability."

"Other than the Blood God, who else could silently take over Starfox’s body?"

Thanos snorted. "Blood God, I still underestimated you. If I had known, I wouldn’t have sent Starfox to Earth. I should have secretly controlled the people of Earth through demon god methods and made them serve me."

"Blood God!"

The strongest Eternals were utterly astonished. No wonder Thanos feared the Blood God so much. He really was that formidable.

Most of the Blood God’s consciousness was in the Mind Sea, yet even so, he had discovered Starfox, located the New Sanctuary, and teleported over for a sneak attack.

After sending Starfox away, the ever-cautious Thanos had immediately moved the New Sanctuary to a new location. Yet Wang Bert had still found it. That ability was simply terrifying.

Thanos had indeed changed locations, but he had not moved the dwarf elf with spatial abilities. Following that clue, it had not been difficult for Wang Bert to find the New Sanctuary—only he could have done it, because he was the Space Lord.

"Demon god methods are too slow, and ordinary people can’t see the Celestial Group."

Wang Bert did not deny it. "Thanos, have you figured out how you want to die? This time, I won’t give you another chance to escape."

"If your true body were here, I really would need to figure out how to die. Unfortunately, it isn’t. You’re only a strand of Mind Power."

Thanos was full of disdain. "Perfect. I’ll deal with all of you here. Phastos, activate the shipwide attack system."

"Yes, Thanos."

Phastos grinned. Countless cannon barrels extended from the walls and ceiling, aiming at everyone. At the same time, an invisible force field enveloped them, and they began floating into the air.

"Forget the strongest Eternals. My New Sanctuary alone can destroy an entire planet."

Thanos said viciously, "You came here this time to die."

Phastos added, "That’s right, to die! Under my control, the New Sanctuary is stronger than even an ancient god."

Everyone’s expressions grew somewhat grim. Wang Bert said, "I am indeed only a strand of Mind Power, but that’s enough. I’m a Creator God. By the way, Old Thanos, do you discriminate against your subordinates’ sexual orientation?"

Thanos looked utterly confused. What was the meaning of talking about this now? "Do it."

Wang Bert shouted, and every energy cannon on the ship simultaneously turned and fired at Thanos. Even Thanos was blasted through the hull and sent flying into outer space.

The ship’s hull had been breached, and massive amounts of air leaked out. Wang Bert waved his hand, and an Energy Defense Shield appeared from thin air, protecting the Super Heroes who had just fallen from midair.

At the same time, Tina condensed an energy spear and stabbed it toward Druig’s abdomen. Sersi placed her hand on Ikaris, whose body rapidly turned to stone. Ajak extracted energy from her body and slammed a fierce punch into Kingo’s back.

Sprite did not fall behind either. She cast an illusion, sealing off Ikaris’s eyes, ears, and nose, making him feel as if he were trapped in complete darkness—Ikaris was the strongest of the Eternals.

In an instant, every female member of the strongest Eternals had defected. Well, Phastos was gay. You get it.

"Wow."

Everyone stared wide-eyed at the strongest Eternals suddenly attacking each other. Wang Bert had explained his plan before, but seeing it with their own eyes still felt unbelievable.

After this, who would dare send women to fight Wang Bert?

At that moment, while Phastos controlled the energy cannons to bombard Thanos outside, he shouted at Old Tony, "Iron Man, work with me to deal with Thanos!"

"You work with me."

Old Tony did not waste words. He immediately charged out through the breach in the hull, his eyes filled with blazing light. This time, he would kill Thanos, that great threat.

Leaving the battle outside aside for the moment, the strongest Eternals began fighting in the hall because of Wang Bert’s ability. Seeing Tina sneak attack him, Druig immediately used his power to control her and shouted, "Tina, wake up!"

Tina’s hands froze in midair, and her face was full of struggle. A moment later, she roared, "The Blood God is everything to me! I will fulfill any command he gives! Long live the Blood God!"

With that roar, Tina attacked Druig again. Druig cursed, retreating while controlling space to block Tina.

Kingo was in an even worse situation than Druig. He had reacted too slowly and was violently sent flying by Ajak behind him—Ajak was the Captain of the Eternals, and her ability was self-healing.

Bang. Kingo crashed to the ground. Just as Ajak was about to pursue, Kingo spun around and fired Energy Bullets from both hands like machine guns at her. Although Ajak dodged immediately, many wounds were still blasted into her body.

However, the wounds healed instantly. Ajak kicked off the wall and smashed her right fist fiercely toward Kingo’s head. She could extract her own energy to enhance her attacks, and she was no weakling in battle.

At that moment, with a loud shout, the Petrification Skin covering Ikaris’s body exploded at once, turning into ‘shells’ that shot in every direction.

Seeing a chunk of stone flying at her, Sersi hurriedly used her ability to turn it into air. Even so, she was still blasted away and rolled across the ground.

Then, Ikaris’s eyes glowed red as he fired at the location where he sensed Sprite. But he hit nothing. There was no one at the place he had sensed.

Realizing that he had missed his target, Ikaris immediately shouted. Dozens of lasers burst from all over his body, sweeping across the surroundings as he spun. Countless instruments and facilities were sliced in half, crashing to the ground with loud bangs.

"Space distortion."

As the lasers swept over, everyone’s expressions changed. Wang Bert raised his hand and used Space Magic to warp the lasers.

At the same time, Sprite dropped to the ground to avoid the lasers. The moment her concentration slipped, Ikaris’s sight and hearing immediately returned to normal. He kicked Sersi, who had come up to ambush him, sending her flying.

"This is impossible! How can Starfox’s ability control us strongest Eternals?"

Ikaris shouted angrily at Wang Bert, "Starfox is only god-tier, and he’s at the bottom even among god-tier beings. He’s completely insignificant."

"Starfox is indeed insignificant, but I’m the one controlling this body now."

Wang Bert said, "Feelings have never been simple. Appearance, personality, wealth, status—every single one can influence them. Tell me, who can resist the temptation of a Creator God?"

Ikaris had no answer. No wonder every female Eternal had fallen for it. When a Creator God used charm, what woman could withstand it? And the Blood God truly deserved his name. The entire process had been silent and seamless; even Thanos had not noticed anything. Starfox could never compare to that, not even by a long shot.

"So what if you control them? I am the strongest Eternal."

Ikaris snorted and went all out against the female Eternals, trying to help the others regain their combat ability as quickly as possible.

"You are indeed strong, but only strong. Thor, come with me to deal with Thanos. Dr. Banner, Tony, Carol, this place is yours."

Wang Bert shook his head and flew outside. Thor immediately followed with Stormbreaker in hand. He did not mind cutting off Thanos’s head again.

Dr. Banner also wanted to beat up Thanos, but he could not fight in space. He could only charge furiously into Ikaris. The other Super Heroes followed one after another, joining forces with the female Eternals against the male Eternals.

In space, Old Tony, wearing the Anti-Blood God Armor, was locked in a fierce battle with Thanos. His eyes glowed red as two laser beams blasted fiercely toward Thanos’s chest.

At the same time, Phastos controlled the pitch-black Annihilation Cannon and fired it at Thanos. Thanos looked disdainful as he raised his thick arms, blocking both the lasers and the Annihilation Cannon.

"A tiger, even wounded, cannot be bullied by ants."

Thanos snorted and threw a punch through the air at Old Tony. Sensing something wrong, Old Tony immediately used Makkari’s ability to flee into the distance. The next second, the space where he had been exploded violently, surrounded by pitch-black spatial cracks.
