Chapter 288 Two people with their own agendas, Wanda's backup plan!
Chapter 288 Two people with their own agendas, Wanda's backup plan!
"Too high..." Toby raised his head slightly, his indifferent eyes looking down at Wanda who was looking down at him like a queen, and said this casually.
Wanda on the fortress was stunned by what she heard. Before she could figure out what Toby meant, ten iron rings shining with seven colors had already left Toby's arm and flew over in a series of "whoosh" sounds!
Rumble—
In just one exchange, that steel fortress that could trap 99% of the world's superhumans was blasted into dust by the Ten Rings!
Your steel fortress is amazing, but unfortunately, I just happen to be that exceptional 1%.
Toby's perfect ten-ring combo could wipe out 99% of the world's superpowered individuals in one go.
However, the three people on the fortress were exactly 1% capable of withstanding the aftershocks of that attack...
Toby smiled slightly as he watched the three figures emerge from the shattered fortress, now riddled with metal fragments.
"That's much better. Remember, from now on, when you're facing me, don't stand so high up. I don't like people looking at me with that condescending gaze..."
"If this happens again, it won't be just a simple warning; it'll be a spanking!"
Upon hearing this, Wanda's smile froze. She never expected that the other party would treat her so cruelly for such a small reason!
Wanda's smile slowly faded, and she murmured, "What a ruthless business partner."
Toby ignored Wanda's resentful gaze, merely glancing at the zombies Namor and Thor on either side of her, and said calmly:
"Where are my men? Don't tell me you've already been killed along with the survivors of this base. If so, then these two guys beside you don't need to be kept alive either."
As they were speaking, the ten rings that had been launched earlier suddenly flew out from the flames of the fortress explosion and split into two five-rings, which circled around the zombies Namor and Thor.
The moment Toby makes a thought, those bullseye will blow their heads off!
Although the three of them survived unscathed when the Ten Rings bombarded the fortress, it was because Toby didn't consider them as the Ten Rings' primary targets.
If he targets three people, apart from the zombie Wanda, the other two won't last more than ten shots.
And Wanda is clearly aware of this as well.
With a wave of her hand, a figure suddenly flew out from the darkness of the night sky—it was Moonlight Blade, who was bound by the chaotic magic of Asia.
But what descended from the darkness was not only the moonlight blades, but also Asgardian spaceships that filled the entire sky!
The spaceship was filled with Asgardian warriors!
However, it's in zombie form...
Clearly, even the Asgardians were all infected and controlled by Wanda, becoming her zombie puppets.
Toby looked it over and clicked his tongue in amazement:
"Tsk tsk, making such a big fuss, are you planning to use them to deal with the Infinite Hulk, or to deal with me?"
Upon hearing this, Wanda's eyes, which shone with an eerie red light, smiled at Toby, forming crescent shapes.
"Then we'll see if Mr. Savior is willing to keep our agreement and help me restore this world, or if he wants to break the agreement and monopolize the Infinite Power within the Infinite Hulk."
The two looked at each other and both smiled.
They're both seasoned foxes; anyone could tell the other's intentions weren't pure.
The important thing Wanda mentioned yesterday, which is why she didn't show up, is probably to control the zombie Namor and the Asgardian army!
However, Toby was not worried about Wanda's blatant threat.
Because with his current strength, the method of suppressing numbers is basically ineffective against him.
No matter how many or how strong the people Wanda gathers, unless they reach the highest star level, they pose no threat to him whatsoever.
In this multiverse, achieving star-level breakthroughs is not so simple.
This isn't the multiverse of comics; it's where individuals can explode into stars in their own home comics!
In this cinematic multiverse where every character has been weakened, even Wanda and Thor in the later stages are unlikely to be able to destroy a planet; at most, they can destroy some asteroids.
In the cinematic universe, characters like the Hulk actually become less impactful in later episodes. Forget about destroying a planet, it's probably difficult for them to even easily destroy a street like the Incredible Hulk did at the beginning!
Even among the creators of the universe, that group of gods, there weren't many who could actually destroy a star!
In the Collector's demo footage, some Celestials even destroyed planets, relying on the power of the Power Stone! (Shown in the Guardians of the Galaxy Collector clip)
Isn't that ridiculous?
You should know that in the Marvel comic universe, some Hulks can kick planets like balls!
And the number of things capable of exploding into stars is countless!
However, in the cinematic universe, even though both represent power, in terms of expressiveness, Hulk is far inferior to Superman in the DC Extended Universe.
If Superman and General Zod were to fight, that would truly be an apocalyptic scene!
So far, Toby has not actually encountered a single being capable of destroying a planet.
At least no one has ever shown it in front of him, except perhaps the Ancient One and Odin, who are suspected of having the power to destroy a planet.
However, both of them are negligible: one likes to be mysterious and hide his true abilities, while the other is prone to making a move but cannot act.
Toby knew that there was only one person on Earth with the raw power to destroy a planet!
That is... ta-da! It's him, of course!
Although he had only shown the power to destroy a city with a single blow before, Toby had no doubt that if he unleashed his full power, he could easily destroy a star with a single blow!
Therefore, with the ability to destroy a planet with a single blow, why should he fear any schemes or tricks Wanda might be plotting behind his back?
No matter how powerful she is, could she possibly come up with a backup plan to destroy a star?
It's important to know that even the Asgardian army controlled by Wanda had their only planet-destroying weapon, the Bifrost, destroyed long ago, along with Asgard itself, by the fire giant Surtur!
So Toby couldn't figure out where Wanda could get help for planet destruction or planet-destroying weapons.
Can Wanda really come up with a backup plan that will blow up stars?
The answer is... yes, she really got it!
It was also in the sky, but even higher than the sky above the Asgardian fleet, beyond Earth, at a height that Toby couldn't even detect.
That is... the Nova Corps!
If Toby could look beyond Earth, he would discover that the Nova Corps, which the Kamara trio had initially considered their hope for saving the planet, was now actually encircling Earth's atmosphere!
But you should know that even if a signal is sent from Earth, it will take at least three months for the other party to receive it, and then at least another month for them to arrive.
Otherwise, if Nick Fury had sent a signal to Captain Marvel at the end of Avengers: Infinity War, Captain Marvel wouldn't have taken so long to return and come back.
And now, the Nova Corps has appeared here.
Clearly, the Nova Corps already knew about the zombie crisis on Earth.
Their arrival outside Earth's atmosphere to surround it was not to help Earth, but to isolate Earth, the source of the "plague"!
The plan is to nip the zombie virus in the bud!
