Chapter 976: Extinction
Empty desert plains.

The sky was filled with golden sand, like a drizzle in spring, falling generously to the earth.

The golden sand fell onto the plain and mixed with the sand on the plain.

"Thanos! Your attack is nothing more than this."

Apocalypse, the oldest mutant on Earth, stood on the yellow sand with a confident smile.

He was so confident only because the Thanos on his side only had four [Infinity Stones].

He had briefly seen the Infinity Stones before and felt the vast and powerful energy on them. Without the six Infinity Stones, he was not afraid of Thanos at all.

"Hmph! Arrogant." Thanos snorted coldly.

“Chichi!!!”

Instantly, four-color energy beams shot out from Thanos' golden [Infinity Gauntlet], instantly penetrating the air and reaching Apocalypse.

"bump!"

Apocalypse reacted quickly. He raised his hands and erected two energy light screens outside his body, like glass dripping with water.

The light curtain seemed fragile, but it was able to block the four-color energy beams.

"Such a crude skill in utilizing energy, that's really all you have." Tianqi said with a strong look of disdain.

Then Apocalypse's pupils turned white and his superpower was activated, without any energy or light appearing.

The lack of light and energy doesn't mean his attack is weak.

The soil, rocks and yellow sand of the plain that Tianqi's eyes could see continued to soften. In less than a breath, the entire plain turned into a sea of ​​sand.

Thanos' eyes flickered: "Is this guy's superpower really that powerful? Is it possible that there is no place for me to stand on the entire plain?"

He had suffered at the hands of Apocalypse before and knew that Apocalypse had a trick called [Sand Solidification].

First soften the ground and let the person's body sink into the ground, or wrap the enemy with sand and then let the sand solidify, so as to achieve the purpose of controlling the enemy.

"Your little tricks may work against weak ordinary creatures, but they are far from enough against me." Thanos sneered.

But just as Thanos said, this trick is very useful against opponents with ordinary physiques, but it is completely useless against someone with a special physique like Thanos.

After Thanos' legs and feet were wrapped, he just exerted a little force to break free.

Thanos ran quickly, using his physical body to cross the continuous [solidified sand] in the weather.

"Go to hell!" After getting about one meter close to Apocalypse, Thanos said with murderous intent.

Thanos, wearing the [Infinity Gauntlet], with his left hand wrapped in purple energy, punched Apocalypse with all his strength.

"Is it the power of that violent purple gem?" Tianqi thought to himself, and then he saw the weather being wrapped in a green spherical water wave light curtain.

"boom----"

The light from Thanos' fist plowed a thousand-meter-long gully in the earth.

The moment before the energy of the [Power Stone] approached Apocalypse, Apocalypse was wrapped in the blue water wave light curtain, and then teleported away in space. Then his body split into three, and three Apocalypses appeared. A short energy blade appeared on the palm of the three Apocalypses' right hand, and before Thanos could react, they attacked Thanos from behind and from both sides at the same time.

"Chichichi!"

Thanos felt himself being slashed on the back and sides of his waist, but he didn't feel any pain, so he felt a little relieved. Then Thanos thought with disdain that Apocalypse couldn't even break his defense.

The three clones of Apocalypse disappeared, and a green water wave sphere appeared at the place where Apocalypse originally stood. The light curtain broke, revealing Apocalypse inside.

Chi Chi!!!

Apocalypse's eyes emitted blue energy beams.

Thanos just glanced at the energy attack and didn't take it seriously. The intensity of the energy was not strong enough to penetrate his defense.

"puff!!!"

"How could it be?" Thanos looked down at his chest, his eyes wide open and he didn't dare to speak confidently.

Tianqi smiled crookedly and said, "I have lived for more than a thousand years and have collected countless super powers. Do you really think that I don't have any means to target an opponent with such strong defense?"

The previous hard battle was only successful because of the forced suppression of the six Infinity Gems. Now that the remaining four gems no longer had the power to crush them, Apocalypse had a chance to fight back.

Thanos suddenly realized what was going on and asked, "Did you cut me with those three blows earlier and reduced my defense?"

Tianqi did not answer, but his gesture clearly indicated his agreement.

"Hahaha!!! Come and die!" Thanos laughed wildly, and then purple energy suddenly burst out.

Apocalypse was horrified and immediately opened his hands to form an energy barrier to block the terrible explosion. He could have avoided it, but there were many mutants behind him.

He cared about the lives of the mutants, but not too much. He was mainly greedy for Charles' body.

He dodged Charles and turned to ash.

Tianqi (一`一) looked at a huge deep pit and said, "How could this bastard be so unable to accept defeat that he took my gemstone with him before he died."

After sensing it, I found that there was indeed no trace of Thanos' life.

"Forget it! I'd better change my body as soon as possible!" Tianqi shook his head.

When Tianqi turned around and was about to leave, he suddenly stopped and looked back quickly.

I saw two balls of gray smoke appearing in the distance, with blue light occasionally flashing in the smoke, and a tall figure slowly walked out of the smoke.

"You...why aren't you dead yet?" Tianqi said in surprise.

Thanos came again and attacked without any greeting.

Thanos was seen wearing a cloak with many holes, his right fist wrapped in a ball of gray energy. He slowly swung it up, and at the same time, a huge gravitational force wrapped around Magneto, Psylocke and others in the distance, binding them, and pulling them closer to Thanos.

"Oh no, we're being controlled. We must not let him get close to us." Psylocke said anxiously. She had felt the horror of Thanos' iron fist before.

"when---"

At the critical moment, Magneto pulled out a huge steel safe from the ground. The safe instantly collapsed inward, and a pile of gold scattered outside. This might be the safe of a bank in Cairo.

The situation on Tianqi's side is even worse.

The two sides were still talking, but Thanos, who was wearing a jeweled helmet, golden shoulder armor and blue clothes, did not follow the ethics of martial arts. He opened a space gate and appeared next to Apocalypse, knocked him to the ground, and then punched Apocalypse three times with his iron fist. The energy contained in his fist hammered into Apocalypse's body and exploded, shooting in all directions.

When the two Thanos didn't want to give Apocalypse and the others a chance, their bodies suddenly became unable to move.

Apocalypse, Magneto and others thought of one person at the same time: Charles!
then,

Magneto immediately disassembled the steel safe, allowing iron atoms to enter Thanos' body through his eyes, ears, nose, mouth and tongue, and then exploded from the inside like fireworks.

Apocalypse, whose chest was blasted through, naturally would not miss this opportunity. His pupils emitted blazing energy waves, blasting through Thanos' head in front of him.

After Tianqi and others defeated their opponents, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Storm Ororo, one of the Four Horsemen of Calamity, complained: "This Thanos is really hard to kill. If I kill him, three more will appear!"

After fighting for so long, Apocalypse naturally realized that Thanos had the ability to clone himself.

"I have felt every one of Thanos' clones, and they are all physical bodies. It should be difficult for Thanos to have too many of them. We have killed three Thanos. Even if Thanos is not dead, he should not be able to appear again in a short time." Apocalypse said.

Magneto and Charles (→_→…←_←) looked at each other.

·············
Wang Ming, hiding in the dark, looked at the people on the plain.

"Telepathy is so convenient!" Wang Ming said to himself. The sudden attack of Thanos' two clones could definitely wipe out Apocalypse and his group, but they were controlled by Charles' telepathy and died immediately.

Charles' ability can be said to be a top six skill.

They can read other people's memories, modify other people's thoughts, and control other people's minds at any time.

"It's a pity, it's a bit useless." Wang Ming shook his head.

Wang Ming once thought about capturing Charles and extracting his superpowers, but after studying them for a while, he found that the abilities were too useless.

Charles is able to use his [psychic powers] to roam the Earth, but that's because everyone's mental powers are weak.

Wang Ming came from the mythological world, and in the mythological world, Charles' [telepathy] was rubbish.

His [telepathy] can only deal with those whose mental power is weaker than his. If he encounters someone whose mental power is stronger than his, he will be defeated on the spot.

This is the case with the battle between Apocalypse and Charles in the spiritual realm.

Every cultivator in the mythological world needs to cultivate [Spiritual Consciousness]. None of their mental powers is weaker than Charles', so what is the use of this ability?

If you read something with stronger mental strength than yours, you will be killed immediately.

It was read to be the same as my own mental power, and I couldn’t read thoughts.

Why would you need Charles' ability to read someone with weaker mental power than you? Wouldn't it be easier to just use your spiritual sense?"

··········
Three clouds of smoke appeared above the plain, and the blue force of space flickered.

Three Thanos, dressed differently but identically, walked out slowly.

Psylocke said to Storm unhappily, "You're right."

"Charles!" Magneto shouted.

Professor X Charles attacked them directly without Magneto's order.

Charles entered Thanos' sea of ​​consciousness and saw the scene on Thanos' home planet Titan and Thanos's spiritual form when he was young.

Seeing Thanos' spirit body, Charles restrained and controlled it without any hesitation.

suddenly,

A yellow power emanated from Thanos' mind. This power was dozens of times greater than Charles' mental power, and it instantly counterattacked.

"Ah!" Charles suddenly started bleeding from all his orifices and then fainted.

Thanos glanced at Charles who had lost consciousness and said, "I've suffered several losses from your psychic abilities. If I don't find a way to deal with it, then I'm not Thanos."

Without Charles's restraint, the three clones began to pounce on other mutants.

The reason why Charles fainted was because he fell into Thanos' trap.

The three Thanos here are three independent individuals.

A consciousness uses magic to control all of Thanos' actions.

Charles reads the spirit, and Thanos pushes the original consciousness of his physical body to the front, allowing it to be read by Charles' spirit.

Afterwards, the real body hid in the distant universe and activated the [Mind Gem], and the powerful mental power backfired on Charles.

Storm looked at the three Thanoses rushing towards them in horror. When she stretched out her hands to control the weather to resist the Thanos, the Thanos' body crumbled like sand.

Tianqi's pupils regained focus and he looked at the distant sky with a serious expression.

He is worried.

I am worried that after these three Thanos die, four more Thanos will appear.

His limit is three Thanos.

After waiting for a while, Thanos did not appear again. Apocalypse judged that Thanos might appear in a short time.

Apocalypse turned and walked towards Charles, but stopped after taking a few steps.

because,

Charles is destroying the desert. Not only Charles is being destroyed, but also Magneto and Psylocke...

Tianqi looked at his own palm and found that he was also turning into sand.

"How is this going?"

Apocalypse died in confusion.

next moment,
The earth exploded.

The power of the explosion destroyed the entire solar system and turned it into cosmic dust.

·············
Marvel Cinematic Universe

Wang Ming in front of the Shennong Ding had a bad expression on his face.

Because one of his clones was destroyed.

For some reason, Thanos suddenly came to his senses. Without appearing in front of Apocalypse and others, he snapped his fingers directly from a distant alien planet.

This snap did not randomly destroy half of the life in the universe, but directly wiped out all life forms apart from him.

Although Wang Ming is powerful, he cannot resist the wish-making law attack of the six Infinity Stones.

The solar system exploded simply because Jean Grey died.

At the moment of Jean Grey's death, the [Phoenix Force] in her body erupted completely, wiping out the solar system in an instant.

The full unleashing of the [Phoenix Force] is a terrifying force that is no weaker than the six Infinity Stones.

Wang Ming felt a sudden surge of shock and immediately had a bad premonition.

Three Infinity Stones appeared in Wang Ming's palm. A faint sensation appeared, and then the golden [Eternal Spear Gungnir] appeared.
"bump!!"

[Eternal Spear] was spent by Wang Ming at such a speed that a sound of breaking the sound barrier was heard.

After flying a few meters in the air, the magic gun directly penetrated into a space crack.

then,

In a distant galaxy, a Thanos with purple skin, a golden glove on his left hand, and six Infinity Stones inlaid on the glove, was nailed to death.

after that,

[Eternal Spear Gungnir] was thrown out three times in a row.

···············
Unknown universe,

Unknown planet,

In an unknown location, Thanos opened his eyes, surrounded by no less than a thousand candles.

"Sure enough, I have to kill Loki, you damn bastard, before I can successfully snap my fingers and destroy all life in the universe." Thanos said to himself.

Since there is no way to take shortcuts, let’s just crush them head-on.”

Behind Thanos, there were densely packed, dark figures moving slowly with heavy steps, entering the space passage.
