"Yondu!"
Originally, Yondu was supposed to die in outer space while rescuing Star-Lord. However, due to their relationship, it seemed that Star-Lord's fate, or perhaps Yondu's fate, had changed.
Perhaps Yondu often chased the Guardians of the Galaxy, but undeniable was the father-son relationship between Yondu and Star-Lord. Both Yondu and Star-Lord understood this.
If Star-Lord asked, Yondu would undoubtedly help him. Now, with Gamora dead, Star-Lord, driven by a desire to kill Thanos at any cost, was determined to take action.
"If Yondu and his Ravagers are willing to help, it could be a significant boost!" Wang Ying suggested. The Ravagers were space pirates with considerable strength, surpassing Earth's capabilities in both physical qualities and technological weapons.
Star-Lord's decision to venture into space was influenced by Yondu. "Once you've truly found the Ravagers, come to Earth together. We'll then proceed to Titan to face Thanos!" Wang Ying nodded.
"Alright, give me a few days!" Star-Lord clenched his fist, standing up. While Star-Lord's strength might not be extraordinary, he was still a demigod. Perhaps, with or without Ego, he could awaken his latent powers.
Wang Ying watched as the Guardians of the Galaxy left. Their arrival had indeed brought a significant surprise, adding one more person capable of facing Thanos.
...
While the Earth's forces were assembling, Thanos was not idle. Although he didn't care about Earth, the people of Kamar-Taj were formidable opponents, especially Wang Ying and the Ancient One.
These two were his greatest adversaries. Without them, he probably wouldn't have hesitated and would have directly attacked Earth.
"My Lord, it seems that the people of Earth are preparing to gather on Titan. Additionally, the Infinity Stones are also appearing on Titan!" Supergiant reported.
"Oh!" Thanos, upon hearing this news, showed little emotion, simply responding with an "Oh." "In that case, mobilize the fleet and have them gather on Titan!"
"Yes, Lord Thanos!" Supergiant respectfully replied before leaving.
Thanos sat on his throne, expressionless, lost in thought.
...
At this point, a large number of troops had rapidly assembled. They were waiting for Wang Ying's command to proceed to Titan and defeat Thanos. Although their numbers were still less than half of Thanos's forces, they were confident they could defeat him.
Inside the tea room in Kamar-Taj, the Supreme Sorcerer sipped his tea, looking at Wang Ying. "Are you ready to go to Titan?"
Wang Ying nodded. "Yes, we cannot afford to wait passively. We've decided to take the initiative. What are your thoughts, Supreme Sorcerer?"
He was ready, with only one thing remaining: Earth. As others feared, leaving Earth unguarded might lead to a surprise attack by Thanos. Although Wang Ying didn't believe Thanos would intentionally do so, he decided not to take any chances.
"Your decision is sound. I see no issue with it. In that case, I'll stay and guard Earth. I entrust the matter of dealing with Thanos to you!" The Ancient One nodded. She also wanted to go to Titan to watch over Wang Ying, but she understood the necessity of having someone protect Earth.
"And rest assured, I'm fully prepared. Besides, I'll be carrying the Infinity Stones with me. Thanos won't be my match!" Wang Ying reassured, raising three Infinity Stones – the Power Stone, the Space Stone, and the Mind Stone.
The Eye of Agamotto remained with the Ancient One. This time, the Infinity Stones Wang Ying carried would serve as bait. Even if Thanos turned the tables and attempted to take them, the Ancient One could use the Eye of Agamotto to deal with him.
"With your power, coupled with the power of the Infinity Stones, I believe it's nearly impossible for Thanos to gather all of them!" The Ancient One agreed.
Wang Ying had a double insurance plan. Even if he lost, it wouldn't allow all the stones to fall into Thanos's hands.
"Then, I leave Earth in the hands of the Supreme Sorcerer!" Wang Ying stood up, saluting the Ancient One.
He then raised his hand and created a portal.
After walking through it, the sparkles of the portal dissipated.
As Wang Ying entered Titan's coordinates, he had already transmitted them to the sorcerers of Kamar-Taj on Earth. When he gave the command, they would open a portal to Titan.
Wang Ying was not in a hurry. He would wait for Thanos to arrive. This time, he would confront Thanos openly, with the news of his intention to face Thanos on Titan not being concealed. Given Thanos's strength, he wouldn't escape Wang Ying's watchful eyes.
So, as he arrives, Thanos will come.
Indeed, he didn't have to wait long.
Above the sky, countless shadows appeared. Wang Ying knew they were Thanos's army and his fleet, quickly blocking the star's radiance.
Thanos's fleet tore through the clouds, appearing in the void like a colossal metallic beast, spanning the sky and exerting tremendous pressure.
Upon witnessing this scene, Wang Ying didn't show much expression; instead, he seemed somewhat indifferent.
After a moment, a smaller spacecraft flew out from the enormous starship and descended towards the ground. Soon, the ship hovered in the air, and a beam of light descended, followed by two figures appearing before Wang Ying.
It was indeed Thanos and Supergiant.
Now, four out of the Black Order had died, leaving only Supergiant, making Thanos appear somewhat desolate. Nevertheless, Thanos still exuded an overwhelming aura.
Seeing Wang Ying, he squinted slightly. "Just you alone? Do you intend to face us alone?"
With a wave of his hand, countless small aircraft descended from the sky, and numerous vanguard units, like monstrous creatures, dropped down.
There were also enormous whale-like Zatarae aircraft.
Waiting for Thanos's command, these formidable forces would immediately attack Wang Ying without any hesitation.
With so many subordinates, Thanos didn't believe Wang Ying alone could achieve anything.
Even with Wang Ying's formidable magic, Thanos believed that Wang Ying would be torn apart by his subordinates.
"If it's just you alone, no matter how powerful you are, you will surely die here!" Thanos sneered. He didn't expect this powerful sorcerer to act so recklessly, facing him alone.
Wang Ying smiled, "You think it's just me?"
Wang Ying snapped his fingers.
Subsequently, sparks crackled in the void.
More sparks appeared simultaneously.
Figures emerged one after another, followed by giant portals appearing in front of them.
Then, countless troops were transported through the portals.
First and foremost were the Asgardian forces. To deal with Thanos, Wang Ying had already forged a new weapon – the Stormbreaker.
The Asgardian forces were equipped with divine palace gear, and there was even a Valkyrie among them.
Thor had mobilized his full strength, surrounding his Nine Realms' territory.
After them, came the sorcerers of Kamar-Taj.
This time, these sorcerers were fully armed, many of them wielding magical weapons.
There were also some unique magical equipment.
Following them were a group of superheroes appearing behind Wang Ying.
At this moment, perhaps the forces on Wang Ying's side were still not as numerous as Thanos's army, but it was still considerable.
"Now, Thanos, do you still think you can easily kill me?" Wang Ying looked at Thanos and slowly spoke.
Thanos saw the troops appearing behind Wang Ying, not surprised. Instead, a grim smile appeared on his face.
Raising his right hand, he pointed his dual-bladed sword at Wang Ying.
"Kill them!"
With Thanos's command, his army immediately swarmed towards Wang Ying. These frenzied vanguard units, like beasts filled with madness and slaughter, rushed toward Wang Ying.
Without Wang Ying saying anything, the troops behind him also charged towards Thanos's forces.
At the same time, Wang Ying raised his hand, pulling out a crimson chain with a snap of his fingers. In an instant, as he swung the chain, it split into countless sparks, spreading out.
A path was cleared through the large army of Thanos, and with Wang Ying's gesture, the troops behind him rushed forward, clashing with Thanos's forces.
Simultaneously, Wang Ying's palm pulled, and a crimson chain was snapped out. At the same time, more sparks appeared.
A crimson chain split into numerous tentacles, almost in an instant. These vanguard units couldn't withstand the onslaught. Either they were sent flying or directly entangled to death.
Fortunately, most of Thanos's army was fearless and unyielding. Even when they saw this scene, they didn't show any fear.
However, the members of the Avengers and the troops behind Wang Ying felt somewhat frustrated.
With Wang Ying making a move, Thanos's army seemed powerless to resist. With this strength, it seemed they weren't needed at all.
Initially, they thought it would be a tough battle, but now they realized they might be here just to make up the numbers...
