Chapter 158 - Ego Makes a Move

Bang!

Fist met palm, the sound of energy and armor colliding was deafening!

The armor covering Robin's entire body flared with purple light, instantly neutralizing the energy erupting from Beckett's palm!

"His Highness Beckett, it's the Isotope Armor."

The thoughtful Woz projected all the data on Robin's armor before Beckett.

A dense mixture of Infinity Stone isotopes and unknown materials in his eyes formed the armor on Robin's body, which greatly enhanced him.

"Ah, I can see that."

Beckett shook his hand, casting a disdainful gaze at Robin, who had regained his footing.

"However, trash is trash, even with the Infinity Stones."

No matter how strong the Infinity Stones were, they were merely a power for others to wield. Their strength naturally varied from person to person.

The Other was a prime example.

Wasn't the Mind Stone one of the six Infinity Stones? Did The Other dare to challenge Thanos with it?

"Indeed, he's just a young man."

Robin, who had been repelled, sighed. The arrogant demeanor and tone that looked down on everyone reminded him of his younger days.

He remembered his own youthful recklessness, only to be brutally beaten by reality.

"Then, let's begin."

Before his voice even fell, Robin's figure appeared before Beckett.

A sharp whistling sound cut through the air by Beckett's ear, and the armor, imbued with dense energy, emitted a dazzling light!

"How can this be?!"

"What is that?!"

"The energy of the Power Stone?!"

Jennifer, who was ready to act at any moment, sensed the energy burning on the Knowhere King Robin, which was exactly the same as the power her teacher Gubo had given her.

Thump!

The fist, containing the energy of the Power Stone, was directly blocked by Beckett's casually raised arm.

"What?"

"What do you mean by 'begin'?"

Beckett, who had long been prepared for the Power Stone, had a face full of mockery as he kicked Robin in the chest!

The energy deliberately compressed by Beckett converged at a single point beneath his foot and erupted, shattering Robin's armor defense and forcing him to retreat repeatedly. The power was so immense that it uncharacteristically caused Robin to shatter the floor beneath him!

"Is that all you've got?"

After delivering the kick, Beckett unhurriedly walked towards Robin, who was kneeling on one knee, his eyes filled with disappointment.

"Too weak."

Beckett walked up to Robin, his condescending posture causing Robin to clench his fists. A beast seemed to roar in the sky, and amidst lightning and thunder, he leaped forward. The energy overflowing from his armor successfully forced Beckett to turn and retreat several steps.

"Robin!"

"Today is the day you die!"

Following Beckett, Jennifer, with purple light condensing on her arms, leaped high and swung a powerful punch at Robin, who had just regained his footing!

Having found Beckett as an ally and with her teacher personally overseeing the situation, with three Infinity Stones on their side, Jennifer couldn't imagine how she could lose.

There was no possibility of defeat!

"Not just you."

"Our army has also begun its operations!"

"The tyranny of your Knowhere clan will be overthrown tonight!"

"Starting tomorrow, our Xiangluo Tribe will no longer be slaves to your Knowhere clan!"

The light of the Power Stone was exceptionally dazzling, her short hair flying wildly, and the power erupting from Jennifer drew everyone's attention.

"Ahhhhhh!!!!"

Strike while the iron is hot!

With a final roar, Jennifer, using all her strength, threw her last punch.

An irresistible, immense force struck, and in the next second, Robin, who had not resisted, was directly punched into the incredibly solid wall!

"Hoo..."

"Hoo..."

Her chest heaved like a bellows, and Jennifer's ragged breathing was particularly jarring in the silent atmosphere.

"I see, so you're going for a fusion approach?"

Jennifer's steps faltered as she was about to walk towards Robin. Her eyes were fixed on Robin, who seemed completely unfazed as he pulled himself out of the wall, stretching his limbs.

"It's certainly a good way to overtake someone, but your fusion with the Power Stone clearly isn't very high."

He brushed the dust off his shoulders and chestplate with an elegant, relaxed posture, causing Jennifer's expression to instantly darken.

"This is impossible."

Purple lightning gathered between her hands, and an energy ball containing terrifying power instantly formed. Jennifer hurled it directly at Robin, who was still dusting himself off.

"You have no idea what impossible means."

Robin smiled and simply raised his hand, effortlessly crushing the charging energy ball into pieces!

The scattered electrical sparks and energy sent wall debris flying!

"Gubo, you're still too cautious."

"So cautious you don't even dare let her deeply interact with the Power Stone's might."

Robin, having crushed the energy ball with one hand, turned his gaze to the sighing old man.

"I've already made a mistake with you once," Gubo said, tapping his cane lightly on the ground, indifferent to Robin's accusation.

"What has been will be again,"

"what has been done will be done again."

"Those are words you once said to me. What, are you going to deny what you said now?"

"Because you fear Jennifer will become the next me, you'd rather suppress her growth speed?"

Stretching his muscles, Robin watched Gubo's expression with amusement before turning his attention to Beckett.

"Son of Thanos, no, I think I should call you by your name, Beckett."

"Where are your Infinity Stones?"

It was Beckett's Infinity Stones that were the reason Robin allowed him to meet with Jennifer and her group. However, in their brief exchange, he hadn't felt any trace of the Infinity Stones.

"You are too weak."

Beckett raised his head, his undisguised contempt and arrogance leaving Robin momentarily speechless.

"Then, what about me?"

A calm voice came from behind Beckett. The sound of his boots hitting the floor was crisp.

With shoulder-length, center-parted hair and a simple, profound, gray-white robe, if not for the identical face, Beckett would have had a hard time connecting him with the Ego he had seen in the tavern.

"Ego?"

Beckett frowned, a sense of crisis surging within him.

"Is the tavern's wine good?"

His indifferent tone instantly silenced Jennifer, who had been about to ask a question.

With just a gentle punch, Beckett felt as if his chest had collided with a planet!

Bang!!!

"It's quite good."

Wiping his mouth, Beckett's figure suddenly appeared behind Ego. However, his glowing arms were immediately bound tightly by several tentacles that materialized out of nowhere, rendering him unable to move.

"I've said it more than once, I am a god."

"Why are there still so many fools who refuse to believe, and even dare to provoke me?"

Ego turned around expressionlessly, looking at Beckett, who was still accumulating power in an attempt to break free. He spoke in a gentle tone.

"Perhaps, your power is indeed strong within your own universe, but..."

"Unfortunately, your power is not strong enough in this universe, which does not belong to you, to break through the constraints of the rules."

"If you were given enough time, you might truly be able to break through this universe's restrictions on you. However, you no longer have time."

"So," Ego said, gazing at the bound Beckett, his expression gradually turning ferocious.

"Die."

As soon as he finished speaking, silver tentacles pierced through Beckett's chest!

Thanks to [Ye Zi Bo Tao] for the tip~

Just one update today~

Last night, a young lady dragged me to see The Wandering Earth...

I don't get it. Why would someone drag me to watch a terrible movie when they know it's terrible...

They aren't even a fan of the lead actor or the director...

The ratings on Maoyan and Douban are both plummeting...

Two tickets cost 50 yuan. For that money, I could add a bit more and buy a Gan Jiang skin.orz
