Chapter 199: Silver Guardian Steals The House...
In truth, Thor couldn't handle this alone...
The Power Stone could indeed destroy a planet, and with Ego's constant output through the Bifrost, it could be done. However, this only applies if the planets don't actively resist, and the core's energy detonates instead. Clearly, someone like Ego doesn't fit this scenario.
In space, numerous Sovereign spaceships appeared, following Star-Lord and the others.
"Damn, there are too many of these pests! I haven't even fixed the weapon systems yet!"
The spaceship, just restored to basic functionality, was nearly defenseless against the swarm of unmanned fighters.
On the ground, countless tentacles stretched out, ensnaring the spaceship.
"Let's unite!"
Finding such a powerful adversary was rare; it was an opportunity to test one's strength.
Thor roared, his entire body surrounded by purple lightning, his eyes covered by a purple hue.
His armor crackled with electric light, scorching everything it touched.
Thor leapt high into the air, and the previously dark night sky was suddenly illuminated by thunder, as if it were day. Dark thunderclouds formed a vortex, exuding a sense of apocalyptic power.
With howling winds, he struck down heavily, and the entire sky was oppressed by a torrent of purple lightning that spanned hundreds of miles.
"Boom..." The Sovereign fighters were the first to succumb, continuously exploding in the thunderstorm.
In the control room of the Sovereign planet, the high priest's face turned pale. This wasn't the first time the screens had gone dark...
Thor's powerful strike not only obliterated all Sovereign fighters but also reduced all visible energy tentacles to dust.
"Let's move!" Yondu shouted.
"No! He aims to destroy the universe we're in; we have to stop him! We need to go to the planet's core and destroy it to truly defeat Ego!" Star-Lord yelled, pointing at another attack on the ground.
"Good idea, this is the second time we're saving the galaxy!" Rocket said excitedly, turning the spaceship around and flying towards the planet's interior through the massive fissure created by Thor.
"No, it wasn't us who defeated Ronan last time..."
Drax bluntly pointed out.
"Asgardian, you cannot kill me!"
Ego's massive transformed figure appeared in mid-air, waving his arms triumphantly.
"Foolish, with your virtues, you dare to call yourself a god?"
Thor spat and called, "Onyxia!"
A massive black dragon emerged in the night sky, taking a deep breath before unleashing a fiery breath towards the ground. Ego's figure shattered once more.
Thor wasn't hurried either. Ego's attack methods were truly incomprehensible to ordinary beings, but not to him.
Although Ego had immense power, he had a significant disadvantage.
One major flaw was his attack range. For ordinary foes, no matter how many, they were just numbers to him, and he could annihilate an army in an instant. But against a sufficiently strong opponent, all attack methods became futile.
Thor had encountered this weakness before; it prevented him from fully exploiting his advantage against Thanos.
Now, however, the only disadvantage had been countered by Stormbreaker.
"This is bad!" Ego's face suddenly changed; he felt a severe threat as if something had entered his body that could endanger his life at any moment.
With a roar, the tentacles on the ground retracted instantly, and his consciousness rushed underground.
This was another flaw.
Although the planet's generated consciousness had a remarkably high energy limit, the core of his body remained immobile.
Once detected, it became a living target, and even the mighty Celestials could be outmatched by civilian heroes like the Guardians of the Galaxy.
Onyxia reverted to her human form and followed Thor underground, attacking Ego's core.
Ego's body extended throughout the planet, and the underground space resembled a vast underground city.
Debris rained down overwhelmingly, almost impenetrable, but it was merely a minor inconvenience to Thor and the Black Dragon Princess.
Creating a maze with changing terrain?
Useless; wielding Stormbreaker, gods are slain by gods.Whatever obstacles arise, they are cleaved through with the axe, leaving no need for detours.
Let him try to resist; I'll bulldoze through!
Ego had no time to deal with Thor now.
Deep within the planet, Ego's body began to reform. Theoretically, his main body was still intact, and he could regenerate infinitely.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw a scene about to tear apart.
"Stop!"
