Of course, Star-Lord's combat ability was also noteworthy. He lacked any real form or technique, but he was incredibly agile.
And his equipment was top-notch.
An elemental gun, plus those shoes with the built-in propulsion system, and his mask – he took on enemies with a fierce, decisive style.
However, compared to the other three, he was slightly less powerful.
And so, the four of them displayed their might. After a fierce battle, they finally took down all the enemies and broke into the hall where Ronan was.
The first thing the four of them did upon entering was to immediately find Ronan and approach him from behind.
Star-Lord immediately set up a cannon that looked incredibly powerful and fired a shot at Ronan.
Ronan, at that moment, had just noticed the commotion behind him and barely managed to turn around.
BOOM!
At that moment, an enormous shell slammed directly into Ronan, unleashing a terrifying shockwave.
Ronan's entire form was swallowed by the intense light and billowing smoke.
Just looking at the shockwave from the explosion, the shell's power was definitely not weaker than a missile on Earth.
"You did it!"
Drax the Destroyer shouted excitedly from the side.
Star-Lord, Gamora, and the others couldn't help but smile.
"A little too happy, aren't we?"
Tony Stark, watching on the screen, couldn't help but sigh.
A galactic overlord isn't so easily killed.
You think a single blast can finish him off?
You're being naive.
And sure enough...
The smiles on Star-Lord and the others' faces slowly froze, replaced by shock and disbelief.
Before their very eyes, Ronan slowly stood up, as if completely unaffected!
Yet, his chest clearly bore a large, fiery red mark!
It was a gaping wound, blasted open by the cannon fire.
"So this is Ronan the Accuser? Truly worthy of being a galactic overlord."
Everyone watching the screen couldn't help but gasp, intimidated by Ronan's power.
At this moment, Ronan raised his hammer towards Star-Lord and the others. With a slight twist, a powerful shockwave erupted.
It instantly knocked Star-Lord and the others to the ground.
Drax the Destroyer was the first to get up from the ground, charging towards Ronan.
But before Ronan, the previously mighty Drax the Destroyer was as weak as a baby, choked and lifted into the air with one hand.
It was a miserable sight.
However, at this critical moment, Ronan seemed to sense something. He turned his head sharply and saw a spaceship enter directly through the Dark Aster's passageway.
It slammed into him fiercely.
Rocket Raccoon, making a dazzling entrance!
BOOM!
What followed was a dizzying, chaotic mess.
Ronan was knocked somewhere by Rocket Raccoon's ship, while Drax the Destroyer and Rocket Raccoon both passed out.
Even more disastrously, the Dark Aster began to collapse after Rocket Raccoon's impact.
The walls around them began to collapse, and explosions ripped through the ship as it plummeted towards the ground.
For Star-Lord and the others, the situation was dire. There was no way out; destruction was inevitable.
Everyone watching the screen was glued to the action, desperate to see how Star-Lord and his team would survive.
Then, Groot's face took on a look of determination. He spread his arms, and branches began to sprout from his body, growing rapidly.
The branches intertwined, forming a thick "nest" that enveloped Star-Lord and the others.
The audience realized what was happening. They were going to survive because of Groot.
It was that tree-like creature that had saved them.
"No, Groot! You can't do this!"
Rocket Raccoon woke up at that moment and saw what was happening. Tears welled up in his eyes as he yelled at the tree-like being, "You'll die! Why are you doing this!"
"We are Groot!" Groot's eyes also became crystal clear.
Everyone in front of the screen was deeply moved. They hadn't expected this strange-looking tree-like being to be such a loyal and reliable companion.
Boom!
Next, the Dark Aster crashed heavily onto the ground.
Most of the city was leveled, and the earth shook violently, as if it were the end of the world.
Star-Lord, Gamora, Drax the Destroyer, and Rocket Raccoon were all safe and sound thanks to Groot's protection.
At this time, many local residents gathered around to check the situation, but soon, expressions of extreme horror appeared on their faces.
Because Ronan had also emerged from the wreckage of the Dark Aster.
Completely unharmed!
Everyone in front of the screen gasped. Was Ronan that monstrous? He was fine after that! He was like an immortal cockroach.
He was worthy of being a cosmic overlord who could threaten the galaxy.
"Look, this is your Guardians of the Galaxy! They're useless except for causing trouble!" Ronan sneered at the local residents. "Fortunately, my father and grandfather planned this revenge!"
"People of Xandar, the time to celebrate has come! Abandon your lowly, ignorant gods and welcome your savior! That is me!"
After saying this, Ronan raised his hammer, intending to use the Power Stone to destroy the entire planet of Xandar.
"Oh, child~ everything will be alright."
Just at that moment, a singing voice suddenly rang out in Ronan's ears.
Ronan turned his head towards the sound and saw Star-Lord standing in front of him, singing and dancing, moving his arms and legs while he sang.
"Oh, child~ things are gonna get easier~"
"Oh, child~"
"Heh heh!"
Star-Lord actually started his own personal concert right in front of Ronan.
Everyone in front of the screen: "..."
To dance at such a critical moment, what kind of brain does he have? How much of a genius does one have to be to think of this method?
A burly man was singing and wriggling around emotionally in front of another equally burly man. The sight was... something else.
It was unbearable!
Ronan watched Star-Lord, who was constantly singing and dancing, and was completely dumbfounded. His eyes were wide, filled with confusion and bewilderment.
It was like seeing someone use four twos and a pair of jokers to lead out a hand in a game of "Fight the Landlord."
What was this guy doing?
Was he having a seizure? Or had he gone crazy from overstimulation?
"What are you doing?" Ronan asked Star-Lord, his expression the most bewildered he'd ever been.
"Dancing battle, dude!"
Star-Lord continued to sing and dance enthusiastically.
"What the hell are you doing?!" Ronan couldn't take it anymore and frowned, shouting at Star-Lord.
"Distracting you! You big-faced jerk!" Star-Lord sang and danced.
Clang!
The sound of mechanical sliding and friction caught Ronan's attention. He turned his head sharply and saw Drax the Destroyer had set up a cannon beside him.
Boom!
A cannonball blasted over.
However, this cannonball wasn't aimed at Ronan himself, but at Ronan's hammer, instantly shattering it.
A purple gem burst out.
"It's an Infinity Stone!"
Tony Stark's eyes widened, and he exclaimed.
No one expected Ronan to embed the gem in his hammer!
No wonder his hammer was so powerful.
And at this critical moment, both Ronan and Star-Lord reached out to grab the ejected gem, trying to seize it.
However, Ronan was still a step slower, and the gem was snatched by Star-Lord.
"Grabbing it with his bare hand?" Captain America said, surprised.
That's just asking for death, isn't it?
Even a being like Thanos needed a gauntlet.
"Ah!"
The next moment, Star-Lord began to scream in agony, as if he were enduring the most excruciating torture imaginable.
It was a horrifying sight, making everyone cringe.
Just looking at Star-Lord's expression, one could imagine how much pain he was in.
His face, under the impact of the purple energy, looked as if it were about to shatter.
His entire body seemed to be on the verge of collapse.
Ronan, watching this scene from the side, curled his lips into a sneer. Trying to hold the Power Stone was simply courting death!
"Peter, grab my hand!"
At this moment, Gamora got to her feet and reached out to Star-Lord, shouting at him.
Star-Lord, affected by the Power Stone's energy, was losing his clarity of mind, and instinctively grabbed Gamora's hand.
The Power Stone's energy transferred, in part, to Gamora.
"Ah!"
Gamora began to struggle in pain.
After Gamora, Drax the Destroyer walked to Star-Lord's side, and he willingly placed his hand on Star-Lord's shoulder, sharing the Power Stone's energy.
Rocket Raccoon did the same, grabbing Drax's hand.
All four of them trembled under the Power Stone's energy.
"They are all brave warriors!"
Thor couldn't help but exclaim, filled with admiration and praise.
The others present were equally in awe of the figures on the screen.
In that incredibly dangerous situation, not a single one of them considered their own lives. Instead, they were thinking about how to share the danger faced by their teammates – a truly admirable act.
On the screen.
The scene continued.
It showed that after linking hands, the four of them had actually managed to momentarily resist the energy of the Power Stone. It was, without a doubt, quite astonishing.
"You're all mortals! How is this possible?!"
Ronan was completely dumbfounded, blurting out the words in disbelief.
His level of bewilderment was far greater than when he had suddenly witnessed Star-Lord break out into a dance.
"You said it yourself, you bastards, we're the Guardians of the Galaxy!" Star-Lord declared to Ronan with undeniable authority.
Enraged, Ronan swung his hammer, aiming it at Star-Lord and the others.
But at that moment, Star-Lord opened his hand, and a massive surge of energy erupted from the Power Stone, slamming into Ronan's body.
Ronan was instantly immobilized by the terrifying energy, and with a scream, he exploded.
Blown to smithereens.
That was what true annihilation looked like.
Gamora immediately snatched up the Power Stone, using a small sphere to contain it, and placed it in Star-Lord's hand.
The four of them returned to normal, gasping for breath.
The scene froze there.
Everyone in front of the screen was quite unsettled. The most direct feeling they had was a complete change in their impression of Star-Lord.
Everyone looked at Star-Lord with new eyes.
This guy, despite being an unreliable goofball now, was witty, brave, decisive, and willing to sacrifice himself – he had every quality one could want.
To be honest, no one had expected Star-Lord to possess such traits.
"That's me? I'm actually that awesome?"
Not just the others, but even Star-Lord himself was dazed, finding it hard to believe.
He was actually that awesome in the future?
He couldn't help but want to worship himself.
"They actually withstood the power of the Infinity Stone with only four people, it's unbelievable," Thor's voice rang out first, sounding so surprised.
And as Thor said this, Tony Stark, Captain America, and Black Widow all looked at Star-Lord with expressions of disbelief.
That was the Infinity Stone!
Such an overpowered thing, and four people could actually hold it?
It was simply unimaginable.
Even though everyone had just watched the images, they still scrutinized Star-Lord carefully, and it still felt incredibly unreal.
This goofball?
Seriously?
"I told you guys, I'm a legendary outlaw! You can't even imagine what I'm capable of!"
Star-Lord puffed out his chest, basking in the stunned looks of the others.
Captain America suddenly remembered something and said seriously, "The images showed that Star-Lord acquired the Power Stone in the future, but we know that Thanos ended up taking it."
Black Widow added, "The Power Stone was the first gem Thanos collected!"
This was shown in the images of Thanos killing Loki, although they didn't know at the time that the gem was the Power Stone.
Combined with Doctor Strange's fight against Dormammu, they had now identified three of the six Infinity Stones so far.
There were two in this round of questions, and Black Widow's death in a previous round had also shown them the Soul Stone.
The type of gem inside the Tesseract was currently unknown, but the Tesseract itself could open spatial portals.
Naturally, everyone had a speculation: that blue gem was most likely the Space Stone.
