Chapter 2014: A Finger With Endless Implications
A crisp tallic snap rang out.
Without any hesitation, Luke snapped with his thumb and index finger.
Why didn’t he use his middle finger like Thanos? Because Thanos had cut off his middle finger earlier, and it hadn’t grown back.
As soon as the sound rang out, Thanos’s body suddenly went limp and he crashed dozens of ters away from Luke and Tony.
!!
All of Thanos’s troops fighting Earth’s allied forces stopped, and the gunfire stopped.
They could sense the descent of a mysterious power, which was telling them that the outco was already decided. There was no way to resist or escape it.
Thanos struggled to get up from the ground, and his fierce expression suddenly cald down as he slowly scanned his troops.
In the sky, a huge worm battleship lost control and was about to crash on the little raccoon Rocket that was firing at it.
Rocket scread and covered his head as he dodged.
But the mont the big battleship touched it, it disintegrated into black ash and disappeared like sand.
Rocket, who had escaped disaster, put his hands down and looked around.
All of Thanos’s air units lost control and fell like flowers.
But there were no explosions or collisions. Like a dream, they turned into black dust which scattered.
So did the huge drop ships.
The four-ard monsters, the giant beasts, the foot soldiers, the heavy tanks, and even the gargantuan Thanos began to disintegrate into black mist and dust.
Everything that belonged to Thanos was “taken away.”
Proxima Midnight was dozens of ters behind Thanos.
At that mont, her face was full of despair and sadness. She took one step forward and fell into Corvus Glaive’s arms, and stroked his face.
Corvus Glaive looked into her eyes, and could only murmur, “I hope… we will et again…”
His face and her hand turned into black dust almost at the sa ti.
Reluctant to part with each other, they quietly turned to dust. The black dust mixed together for a few seconds before they disappeared without a trace.
Looking at everything, Thanos gasped and took two steps back to sit on the remains of a building behind him.
Stabbing his broken blade into the ground, he wiped his face heavily with both hands and heaved a long sigh.
After that, this tyrant of the universe didn’t say anything, and disintegrated like all his subordinates.
Only Earth’s allied forces and the Avengers were left.
Their eyes were filled with the joy of victory, but looking at the bodies of their comrades everywhere, they couldn’t smile.
Sacrifices were inevitable, but the tragic casualties in front of them couldn’t be treated simply as numbers.
At that mont, a dazzling cot-like light streaked down from the sky in the direction of the battlefield.
Looking at the situation, Tony asked nervously, “Friday, what’s that?”
Luke’s heart jumped. Holy sh*t! Had Thanos been hiding so boss at this late stage?
Suddenly, he rembered sothing, and his face darkened as he looked at the Sorcerer Supre, who was still holding back the water. D*mn, did your finger just now an “Another one behind you?” Or… Knight has another arm?
Luke grimaced and sucked in a cold breath. That sounded very possible.
The Sorcerer Supre had always been this crazy, and would definitely do sothing like that.
Thinking that, he patted Tony’s shoulder and stretched out his right hand in front of the tycoon’s eyes. “How about you make a left-handed version? I should be able to use it one more ti.”
Hearing this outrageous request, Tony’s eyes widened and he turned around. “Do you have to… work so hard?”
Tony was mortal.
He was arrogant, proud, sensitive and sharp-tongued. He liked beautiful won and research, and was obsessed with being the boss.
Now that he had a daughter, he was even more hesitant about sacrificing himself, although he would still step forward in the end; he had experienced a lot of this hesitation and dilemma in the last few days.
But this Dark Knight from another world had nothing to do with this world, and was the number one superhero there.
What kind of ntal fortitude could make this Knight say “switch hands and do it again” so naturally after half his body was burnt?
Luke patted the dazed tycoon’s shoulder unhappily. “Don’t waste ti. That thing will be here soon.”
Tony woke up from his shock and quickly shook his head. “No, don’t worry. That’s our reinforcents.”
Luke: ??? WTF! Don’t tell it’s so cosmic SWAT team, the kind that cleans up after you’re done!
The mont Tony finished speaking, the ‘reinforcents’ that looked like a falling cot finally took shape.
Sensing that sothing wasn’t right, Luke’s mouth dropped open. “Your reinforcents… is a person?”
After receiving Friday’s reply, Tony, who was half-kneeling, leaned back against the rubble with a complicated expression. “That’s right. If she had arrived sooner, your arm might’ve been saved.”
Luke cursed inwardly. What kind of ‘person’ was this to make Tony say that she was better than Knight?
If she could take care of it, then do you even need ?!
Hm, wait! Luke looked at the Sorcerer Supre again. Could it be that this guy had held up one finger to say, “hang one for one more minute,” or “we still have reinforcents”?
On the other side, Strange called a few Kamar-Taj sorcerers over to open a portal so that the water in the gap could be sent back into the lake, thus freeing him from the predicant of being unable to move.
At that mont, he realized that he was being watched.
Strange followed his senses and saw that the strange Dark Knight was looking at him again with an expression that wasn’t right.
The Sorcerer Supre couldn’t help but mutter to himself. This plot wasn’t right! This guy never appeared in all the 14 million possibilities! Why was he the one to snap his fingers in the end?
He had held up one finger to remind Tony that he only had one chance.
Now, the way Tony was lying against the debris behind him was exactly as he had predicted.
But… in the one outco where they won, half of Tony’s body had been burnt and he had been dying as he sat against the rubble.
Also, as the wielder of the Ti Stone and having experienced 14 million possibilities, Strange knew the precise ti points in this victory.
Based on his calculations, Captain Marvel did indeed arrive at the right ti.
The reason she seed late now and hadn’t been able to do anything was because of Knight, who ended the battle several minutes earlier.
Tony had survived, and so had even more of the allied army soldiers, which utterly baffled Strange.
