c204 Section 204
As soon as Drax opened his mouth, Quill raised his hand and interrupted him, saying, “I won’t accept a so-called father who suddenly appeared like this.”
Gory raised his hand and said, “Isn’t this interesting… Bah, isn’t this good? Whether you can forgive him or accept him, you have to understand the truth before you decide, right?”
This made sense. In the end, under the decision of Captain Rocket, the Lyra followed Ego and landed on the planet Forlis.
The two sides finally met. Ego was an old man who looked energetic. Although he had a head full of white hair, he made people feel full of energy.
Beside him was a woman who called herself “Mantis”. She had two tentacles on her head and almost no white in her eyes.
“…Anyway, I entrusted Yondu to find you later. As a result, for some unknown reason, Yondu hid you and I haven’t heard from you since then.”
After everyone sat down together, Ego roughly talked about the cause and effect.
“Let me tell you why,” Quill said unhappily, “Because I was short at the time, I could sneak into many places they couldn’t go to steal things.”
Ego shook his head and said, “He’s such a bastard. Fortunately, I found you now. Come back to our planet with me. We finally have a chance to be together as father and son.”
After that, Quill and Ego scolded Yondu together. It was obvious that Quill was still hesitant, so Ego used the excuse of going to the bathroom.
“Quill, do you mind talking?”
Gamora immediately called Quill away. After she talked to Quill, Quill finally agreed.
They went to see Rocket together and asked the captain if he could approve this.
“Well, although we were supposed to go on vacation, but… after all, it involves something so important to Quill, I think the vacation can only be postponed, okay, Gorri?”
This time, it was Rocket who turned around and asked Gorri. Gorri was more interested in this matter than vacation, so of course he agreed without hesitation.
Now that they have discussed it, everyone set off again. Perhaps after things are done, they can catch the last bus to the Lamacon holiday.
The Lyra followed Ego’s spaceship to a beautiful planet. The air here is filled with fresh air. The surface of the planet is covered with dense forests and clear lakes, like a beautiful painting.
Everyone was amazed at this beautiful planet. They got off the spaceship and felt the unique atmosphere here.
Gao Li closed his eyes, took a deep breath of fresh air, and felt that his soul was purified.
“It’s so beautiful here.” Drax exclaimed, “It’s like a paradise on earth.”
“Then we have to choose one to stay. Who will stay on the Lyra?”
This is a habit that Rocket has developed over the years. It is convenient to deal with various emergencies. At that time, there will be members to meet on the spaceship in time.
“I am Groot.”
Groot raised his hand. As a tree man, he was the least amazed by the beautiful natural environment.
“Okay, I’ll leave it to you.”
After everyone got off the Lyra, Ego led the Guardians of the Galaxy through this beautiful environment, his smile full of kindness and mystery.
“It’s so beautiful here.” Quill exclaimed, “No wonder you love it so much.”
In front of him was an oasis full of vitality, with rainbow-like lights interweaving in the sky.
The strange plants swayed in the breeze, emitting pleasant floral fragrance, making people feel like they were in a fairy-tale world.
“It’s not just beautiful here,” Ego smiled, “I’m a member of the Celestials, so this planet can be regarded as my body.”
“Really?”
Gori’s eyes lit up when he heard it, this is so valuable for research!
“Of course it’s true.”
Ego led them to a luxurious palace and used the holographic images inside to explain his origins, including his love with Quill’s mother.
The general content is that Ego was born millions of years ago, but he was very lonely at the time, so he shaped a human body for himself, went out to find life, and finally found Quill’s mother and fell in love.
“Wait, are you saying that you built a complete reproductive system on yourself and there is no reproductive isolation between you and the people on Earth?”
“Oh!” Quill looked at Gorri in shock, “I don’t want to know about this at all!”
“What are you doing? Why are you asking this?” Gamora was also puzzled.
“It’s the curiosity of scientists… You know, there is reproductive isolation between different species on Earth.”
Gory spread his hands and apologized, “But it’s really not appropriate, sorry.”
“What’s inappropriate about this?” Drax was even more puzzled, “Even if he didn’t ask, I would also like to ask. Isn’t this a very normal thing? My parents used to tell me how they gave birth to me every winter solstice.”
Quil frowned: “Please, I don’t want to listen at all! I…”
“Okay, okay,” Ego mediated, “I did create the reproductive system. Since it is a body I made myself, I can certainly adjust it according to the native creatures of the local planet, so there is no reproductive isolation.”
“In addition, I also created useless things such as the digestive system and pain. In short, I wanted to experience what it feels like to be a ‘human’ at that time.”
“Okay, guys, do you mind if I leave him and I for a while? I have some things I want to ask him alone, such as why he didn’t come to take me away in person, but asked that bastard Yondu…”
Quill said with a headache. He was interrupted by everyone just now. He knew that it would be difficult for him to ask what he wanted to know normally as long as these friends were present.
Ego was naturally happy about this. The father and son went to other places to reminisce and talk therapy, and Mantis took them to where they lived.
On the way there, Mantis showed her ability to sense emotions when touching others, and she chose Drax first to demonstrate.
Just a touch, Mantis’s eyes were immediately filled with tears.
“Oh my God, you…you…”
Drax shook his head and said, “Seeing the beautiful surroundings, I can’t help but think of the time when I took my wife and children out for an outing.”
Drax’s wife and children were killed by Ronan, which was also the opportunity for him to meet the Guardians of the Galaxy. However, Ronan died on Earth later, and Drax joined the Guardians of the Galaxy and stayed there.
Mantis was infected by the huge sadness and choked up: “Drax, I…I have something to tell you…”
“What is it?”
Gamora frowned and asked, she intuitively felt that something was wrong.
In fact, it was not just intuition. The main reason was that she always felt strange all the way, even though the scenery was picturesque.
It was Gao Li who pointed out the strangeness. He asked, “I interrupt… I wanted to do some ecological research after moving in to see the secrets of the so-called Celestials.”
“However, I have been looking here since I landed. There are almost no animals here except plants. What’s going on?”
222. Chapter 220 You said you can fight against the planet? !
222.
Mantis was interrupted and whispered, “That’s because… This planet is Ego’s body. Ego will not allow fleas to live on him.”
“Then don’t you live on his body?” Rocket asked back, “This is the first time I’ve heard someone describe himself as a flea, hahaha… It’s so funny.”
Mantis said seriously, “I am a useful flea. Ego raised me since I was a child because I can help him fall asleep.”
“By the way, what did you want to say just now?”
Gamora asked. She still remembered it.
“I…” Mantis hesitated, “Ego has already got what he wanted, you should leave quickly, you are in danger now!”
Everyone was shocked immediately, and Rocket, who was usually sarcastic and frivolous, immediately became serious.
“What do you mean, why are we in danger?”
Mantis lowered his head and said, “Ego has combined with countless races on countless planets in order to find a descendant who can exert divine power like him.”
“It’s a pity that they all failed without exception. Ego didn’t like useless fleas, so he killed them all… Peter Quill was the first descendant he found with this characteristic.”
“I guess, the Yondu you are talking about didn’t hand Peter Quill over to Ego because he knew the fate of other descendants?”
Gamora took a breath of cold air. According to Mantis, except Quill, they were all useless to Ego but annoying fleas living on his body, and they would be cleaned up by Ego sooner or later!
“Let’s go now! Take Peter with you!”
But Mantis shook his head and said, “That’s probably not possible. Ego will not give up Quill. He finally found Quill, and only two Celestials can complete his goal of expanding his body.”
“What is expansion?”
Gory asked with interest. He was the least flustered person among all the people, and he seemed extremely calm and composed.
Even Gory was less moved by knowing that the enemy was a planet than by his curiosity to explore the secrets of the Celestials.
“That is Ego’s ultimate goal. He once told me that he wanted to spread himself all over the universe. So he left a part of himself on all the major civilized planets.”
Mantis explained, “However, the universe is too big, and there are too many civilized planets. Ego alone seems a little insufficient, but if Peter Quill’s words are added, it should be just right.”
Gamora didn’t want to stay for a moment after hearing this. She turned around and was about to find Quill, but was pulled by Rocket.
“Wait, do you have a plan? How are you going to fight a planet?”
Gamora said in a deep voice: “No… but we can’t just sit there and wait for death, right?”
“Then how are you going to convince Quill?” Drax asked his soul.
For a moment, everyone was silent.
Gory felt the atmosphere was a bit awkward, so he could only touch his nose and said: “You guys should find a way to convince Peter Quill. Anyway, I still have the confidence to fight against the planet.”
“Okay… huh? Wait, what did you say?”
Rocket was stunned. Gory actually said that he could fight against an entire planet?
Is Gory too arrogant, or is he too backward to keep up with the times?
You know, when I traveled with Gory before, although Gory was very strong, he was not as strong as he claimed now! ?
“Hahahahahaha…” Drax laughed heartily, “You said you can fight against planets, I like this joke!”
Gamora was annoyed and said, “He is Peter’s family, and we are also Peter’s family, let’s bet on which side Peter will believe!”
…
On the other side, Quill was talking to Ego.
When talking about the depths, Quill asked the question again, and Ego’s reaction was a little more intense this time.
“Because I love your mother deeply! I can’t accept returning to a planet without her, you won’t understand how I feel!”
“Of course I understand this feeling!” Quill said excitedly, “I watched her die with my own eyes!”
“Okay Quill… Anyway, now that I have found you, please give me a chance, give me a chance to be the father she calls me.”
Ego said emotionally, and Quill was gradually moved. Then Ego taught Quill how to use his divine power – although Quill could only make a ball with all his strength.
“Hahaha… Don’t worry, we still have a long time. For us with endless lifespans, there is eternal time to learn and grow, and you will become more powerful in the future.”
Ego didn’t mind this. Quill was very satisfied with just being able to use his divine power.
“Won’t eternity be boring?”
Quil was a little embarrassed and wanted to find a topic to change.
“Oh, Peter, as long as you have a goal, you won’t be bored. I think you should change your lifestyle.”
Quil was stunned: “You mean…”
“I mean your friends,” said Ego, “We are immortal, and they are short-lived in comparison. Making friends with them is your mortal side.”
“I…”
Just as Quill was about to speak, Gorri and the rest of the Guardians of the Galaxy came over, and Mantis hid behind Drax in fear.
“Peter!”
Gamora yelled, Quill looked at her and said happily: “Gamora! Do you know, I became a demigod!”
“None of this matters!” Rocket stared at him and said, “Leave Ego now, Quill… Follow us back to the Lyra, we’re leaving now!”
“What… why?” Quill was puzzled, “Hey guys, what’s wrong with you?”
Gamora said nervously: “Trust us, Peter. We won’t hurt you, hurry up and follow us!”
“Are you serious?” Ego spread his hands, “Say this to Peter in front of me?”
“Since the whole planet is you, it doesn’t matter where you say it. Besides, as long as the Lyra takes off and Quill leaves, you will be able to notice it immediately and chase after him directly.”
Gori said leisurely, and there was another key point he didn’t say – he was completely fearless of Ego, and he really felt that it didn’t matter whether he kept it a secret from Ego in the early stage.
“Mantis! It’s you!”
Ego vaguely guessed what was going on and stared at Mantis angrily.
Only Quill remained aloof, trying to ease the tension at the scene.
