As the Chitauri commander reported the failure of the invasion of Earth and the presence of formidable enemies, Thanos' mood darkened.
Then, the commander continued, "If it were only them, I might have been able to handle it, but among them..."
Pausing for a moment, the commander resumed, "Among them was one particularly
troublesome figure. I couldn't deal with him-neither I nor the entire army could do anything against him."
"What did you say?" Thanos' voice, filled with surprise, came through the communication link.
At first, Thanos thought his subordinate was simply making excuses to avoid responsibility for their defeat, but the more the commander spoke, the more exaggerated it seemed.
"Even you and the entire army couldn't handle him?"
Hearing the growing frustration in Thanos' voice, the Chitauri commander hurriedly explained, "Master, I'm not lying. This is the truth!"
He continued, "He is an Omega mutant. His name is..."
As the commander spoke, he sent over some data about the Omega mutants-Messiah and the White-Clad Stranger-through the communicator.
Thanos casually glanced at the information, not paying it much mind at first.
But after just a few seconds, as he skimmed the details, his purple-skinned face, which resembled a giant prune, showed a noticeable change in expression.
An Omega mutant called Messiah?
Destroyed a human city in mere moments?
Thanos began to question everything he knew.
Could a creature from Earth really possess such power?
And this White-Clad Stranger? Supposedly, with just a single word, he could erase entire hordes of enemies from existence...
What made this even more terrifying was that the enemies mentioned weren't just ordinary foes. According to the information, these enemies were powerful constructs called Sentinels, a type of advanced mechanical war machine.
Yet, these seemingly invincible machines were, as the report described, wiped out like mere bubbles by a single word from the White-Clad Stranger. And it wasn't just a few Sentinels-it was entire groups of them, obliterated in an instant.
One video clip in particular caught Thanos' attention: the Sentinels turning into sand, and then transforming into colorful butterflies. It was almost whimsical in its impossibility. Even Thanos, the conqueror of worlds, was momentarily shaken.
"Even I haven't seen power like this before..."
"Omega mutants, such extraordinary beings... such extraordinary power..."
Of course, Thanos' mind immediately jumped to something else something that might explain the source of this god-like power.
He recalled the Reality Stone, or as it was currently known, the Aether. It existed in liquid form and held the same kind of surreal abilities.
Only the Reality Stone could wield such mysterious and awe-inspiring powers!
In his mind, Thanos replayed the knowledge he had gathered about the Reality Stone, an Infinity Stone he had long coveted.
In theory, with the Reality Stone, one could transform any fantasy into reality, no matter how impossible. Through its power, it could erase, warp, or modify reality, turning dreams and abstract concepts into tangible existence.
Perhaps, the Reality Stone was the most powerful of the Infinity Stones, but it was also the most difficult to control.
Thanos knew well that this stone couldn't be used in isolation. Without the support of the other Infinity Stones, using the Reality Stone alone could lead to catastrophic consequences. Most of the time, the realities created by the Reality Stone were illusions, not true realities. It only conjured realities that hadn't occurred-realities without a foundation. These false realities required constant energy to maintain. Once that energy ran out, the created realities would dissipate.
To fully transform these illusions into permanent reality required an unimaginable price. Thanos also recalled hearing rumors about the Dark Elves of Svartalfheim. Supposedly, they had been searching for the Aether-the Reality Stone-hoping to return the universe to its primordial darkness.
In that era, darkness was the dominant force, and the Dark Elves thrived. But after the universe was flooded with light, they could no longer survive...
Thanos knew that the Dark Elves' ambition was a futile dream. Even if they found the Reality Stone, the reality they created would be fleeting.
Likewise, his grand plan to eliminate half of all life in the universe would also require the combined might of the other Infinity Stones, with the Reality Stone playing a crucial role in making that vision come true.
Only through the Reality Stone could he erase half of all life from existence...
Yet now, Thanos had stumbled upon something that shook him to his core-a mere Earthling,
an Omega mutant, possessed power reminiscent of the Reality Stone?
For a moment, he wondered if the Reality Stone was hidden within this person.
Thanos had a rough idea of where the other Infinity Stones were located, but the Reality Stone remained elusive, its location a mystery.
However, upon further examination of the video, Thanos dismissed the idea that the White- Clad Stranger was wielding the Reality Stone.
There were no signs of any Infinity Stone being used by the Omega mutant.
Besides, there was another piece of evidence that solidified this conclusion, something even
more shocking.
The Chitauri commander had sent him a video featuring a butterfly-a butterfly captured by one of Earth's so-called superheroes, Natasha.
This butterfly had been kept and studied after the battle.
During its time under observation, human scientists had examined the butterfly, confirming that it was indeed a living organism with no signs of abnormality.
Incredibly, as of the time the Chitauri commander sent the data, the butterfly was still alive. seaʀᴄh thё Nôvelƒire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
And yet, the most astonishing aspect of the butterfly wasn't its vitality-it was its
composition. It wasn't made of flesh and blood, but of silicon dioxide, the primary
component of sand.
In other words, this was a silicon dioxide-based lifeform, something entirely unprecedented
on Earth.
Seeing this data, Thanos was left in awe.
He understood the implications. This young Omega mutant had, through sheer will, reshaped
something into the exact form he desired.
