Inside the spaceship, besides Black Widow and Captain America, there were also Doctor Banner, Thor, Colonel Rhodes, Rocket Raccoon, and Nebula. Thor raised an eyebrow and said, "Tony, you're surprisingly absent from such an important occasion!"
Tony Stark shrugged, "That's a silly question. Didn't you see the previous video? First, I fought with Thanos, and then I roamed the cosmos for so long... I'm just a normal human, not like you a God. I need some time to recover, okay?"
From this, he deduced that the search for revenge against Thanos in the video must have taken place shortly after his return to Earth, perhaps not long after Thanos had used the Infinity Gauntlet to snap.
Next, the video cut to the interior of the planet where Thanos was. At the foot of a picturesque mountain, there was a small wooden house with a vegetable garden outside. In the vegetable garden, scarecrows were set up to shoo away birds.
Upon closer inspection, these scarecrows were made from Thanos' armour!
"This lunatic... after destroying the universe, he retired?" Steve Rogers raised an eyebrow.
Natasha crossed her arms, "To be honest, Thanos is indeed a very peculiar villain. It seems like he doesn't have the ambition and desire to rule everything."
Steve Rogers glanced at her, "That's exactly why he's even more terrifying!"
"Uh, is that him? He looks like he's about to die..."
Scott Lang was seeing Thanos for the first time. After all, when the video exposing Thanos was broadcast in the previous quiz game, he was still in prison.
In the video, Thanos finally appeared, but at this moment, he was far from the all-powerful, invincible overlord he used to be. Instead, he looked like an old man plagued by injuries.
He picked some strange vegetables and fruits from the garden and struggled back to the small wooden house. Then he started a fire and started cooking.
"Yes, that's him..." Steve Rogers said somewhat amazed, "But he shouldn't look like this. What happened to his hand? The Infinity Stones are also gone!"
Natasha furrowed her brow, "Could it be that Thanos encountered other enemies, like the Time Variance Authority? Who could have done this to him?"
Not only them, but all the viewers watching the live video at this moment were equally astonished. They still vividly remembered how powerful Thanos was in the video shown in the previous quiz game!
Commanding a massive army, and possessing six Infinity Stones, the superheroes of the Avengers were powerless before him, like helpless children in his presence.
A snap of his fingers wiped out half of all life in the universe!
And now, how did he become this feeble?
Scott Lang wore a puzzled expression, "You know if you don't know what this madman did, just watching this video, I think everyone would think you're picking on the weak."
Natasha said coldly, "Don't be naive. Do you know how many people this madman would have killed in the future?"
Steve Rogers added with a serious tone, "Scott, Thanos is far from as weak as he appears in this video. Regardless of the circumstances, we can't let our guard down."
Scott Lang muttered, "Alright, alright, you guys are right."
In the video, after Thanos was subdued, Captain America, Black Widow, and Rocket Raccoon arrived. Rocket Raccoon immediately went to check the Infinity Gauntlet and found that all the Infinity Stones were gone!
Captain America then pressed Thanos, "Where are the Infinity Stones?"
Captain Marvel tightly held Thanos' neck and yelled, "Answer his question!"
Thanos didn't hide anything, "The universe needed correction, and after that, the Infinity Stones were nothing but temptations... they had no further use!"
Doctor Banner, upon hearing this, pushed Thanos to the ground and said angrily, "You've killed countless lives!"
Thanos looked at them, "You should call it gratitude!"
In his plan to "correct the universe," eliminating half of all life, the remaining half would benefit the most. They wouldn't suffer from resource scarcity and could develop better.
Of course, the madman's ideas were beyond the comprehension of normal people.
Doctor banner couldn't contain his anger and punched Thanos. The others were equally infuriated by Thanos' relentless stubbornness. Black Widow's eyes turned red as she emotionally pressed him about the whereabouts of the Infinity Stones.
At this point, Thanos could calmly face anything, "They're gone, everything has turned to dust."
Doctor Banner angrily asked him, "But you used the Infinity Stones just a few days ago!"
Thanos replied, "I used the Infinity Stones to destroy the Infinity Stones. It almost cost me my life, but my mission is complete. Everything is as it should be. I... am destiny!"
This was not the ending the Avengers wanted to hear. Colonel Rhodes suggested, "We should search thoroughly. He must be lying!"
But Nebula stepped forward and said, "My father is capable of anything, but he never lies."
Thanos glanced at her, "Thank you, daughter. Perhaps I was too harsh on you before."
As soon as he said this, Thor, who had been burning with rage, couldn't resist swinging his Stormbreaker and beheaded Thanos with a single stroke. Blood spattered, and Thanos, the cosmic overlord, rolled on the ground like a ball.
"What?" Rocket Raccoon stared at Thor, "What did you do?!"
Thor muttered, "This time, I went for his head."
He then turned and walked away with a vacant expression. There was no joy in avenging a great enemy, and the other Avengers wore equally solemn expressions. They couldn't find any satisfaction or happiness in this.
The video ended in this eerie atmosphere.
