Marvel Infinity Talent - Chapter 171
When Thanos came, he already thought highly of himself as a formidable sorcerer.
However, now he found that he seemed to have underestimated this sorcerer.
Under the full power of his Infinity Gauntlet, he unleashed such a powerful attack. In his view, even a powerhouse at the level of a Celestial Father shouldn’t be able to easily withstand it.
Wang Yang’s magical shield crumbled, but he remained unharmed.
This level of power was simply abnormal.
It’s worth noting that this power was mixed with the energy of the Infinity Stones. Even Thanos himself would probably find it impossible to withstand such an attack.
Although it seemed like Wang Yang’s magical shield was easily shattered, Thanos was well aware that the shield was temporarily formed. In other words, if Wang Yang seriously condensed a magical shield, Thanos might not be able to break it with his attacks.
Now that Wang Yang had displayed such terrifying strength, not to mention the presence of the Ancient One standing behind him.
At this moment, even Thanos couldn’t help but feel a bit hesitant.
There was no need to confront this guy head-on. Moreover, continuing the fight wouldn’t benefit them.
The Ancient One, sensing the powerful energy of the Infinity Stones, also felt a bit solemn. While she could withstand it, she acknowledged that she couldn’t easily resist it like Wang Yang.
Additionally, when the power of the Infinity Stones was nearly depleted, Wang Yang’s magical shield collapsed. She didn’t believe it was a coincidence; it was evident that this young man had a more delicate control over his magic, allowing him to achieve this.
Even she couldn’t accomplish such a feat.
This young man was truly becoming more powerful, even leaving her somewhat amazed.
Wang Yang, unaware of what Thanos and the Ancient One were thinking, did not know that the Ancient One was correct in saying that his magical shield was indeed formed based on the power of the Infinity Stones.
Although, for him, the magical power was almost limitless, it was still wise to save some. In case he needed to go all out, he wouldn’t want to exhaust all his magical power.
“The power of the Infinity Stones is indeed formidable. However, based on this alone, you cannot take away the Infinity Stones from us!” Wang Yang smiled slightly, calmly speaking.
In fact, even if he hadn’t returned, just the Ancient One alone would be enough to withstand Thanos. In the movies, Thanos could dominate because all the other strong beings were dead. Now, although Odin and Hela were gone, the Ancient One still lived.
The path for Thanos to seize the Infinity Stones was destined to be difficult.
“Lord Thanos!”
Supergiant, witnessing this scene, couldn’t help but feel uneasy. They had expected Thanos to easily seize victory.
“Let’s go!”
Gritting his teeth, Thanos’ left-handed Infinity Gauntlet radiated light, and a spatial rift appeared behind him.
Knowing it was futile, Thanos wasn’t one to force a confrontation. He tore open space and entered it, with Supergiant following suit.
“Aren’t we pursuing?” The Ancient One looked at the scene, hands behind her back, watching the two enter the spatial rift. Gradually, space merged back together as if nothing had happened.
“No need to pursue. Why bother?” Wang Yang calmly said.
Since Thanos used the spatial rift created by the Infinity Stones, it was like his territory. If they chased after him, they would only be asking for trouble.
Moreover, forcibly tearing open such space rifts was highly unstable and could collapse. Although Wang Yang was confident he wouldn’t die in it, getting lost inside would be troublesome.
“Very mature, not bad!” The Ancient One, watching the events unfold, smiled.
She had been a bit worried about Wang Yang being too young and impulsive, but now it seemed that he not only had formidable strength but was also mature.
With this, even if she needed to attend to other matters, she could rest assured.
“All thanks to the guidance of the Supreme Sorcerer!” Wang Yang chuckled.
However, Thanos’ decisive departure this time made Wang Yang feel a bit uneasy.
After realizing he couldn’t kill him, Thanos turned and left without hesitation. It was understandable; this was the kind of decisiveness that allowed Thanos to become the ruler of the universe.
“Not so modest. I haven’t taught you much!” The Supreme Sorcerer shook his head.
“What’s your plan for the next step?” The Ancient One looked at Wang Yang, curious. With her age, she already had plans, but for Wang Yang, being her successor, this was the best opportunity for a test.
“Thanos will definitely continue his attack. Supreme Sorcerer, do you have any thoughts?” Wang Yang, at this point, turned to the Ancient One.
The Supreme Sorcerer must have some ideas on how to deal with opponents of this level.
However, the Ancient One shook her head, saying, “This matter should be handled by you. I’ll just assist when needed.”
The Ancient One finished speaking, took a step, and disappeared.
Wang Yang looked at the Ancient One vanishing before him, revealing a wry smile. He knew that the Ancient One had already considered him as a Supreme Sorcerer in training. This situation undoubtedly served as a test for him.
Since he couldn’t rely on the Ancient One, he had to rely on himself.
Wang Yang sat down, using his abilities to deduce the situation. However, even so, the scenes he could perceive remained vague. It seemed challenging to infer Thanos’s intentions.
Wang Yang rubbed his chin. When Thanos didn’t have the Infinity Stones, he could make some deductions and gather intelligence. But now, it was impossible.
All he could see was a misty landscape.
The power of the Infinity Stones was indeed formidable. Although General Ronan’s plan might be futile, at least they knew how many armies Thanos had and what weapons they possessed.
Even if Thanos knew that his information had been exposed, it would likely be challenging for him to improve in a short period.
Before that happened, they had to be prepared. If Thanos couldn’t obtain the Infinity Stones through such means, he might launch an attack on Earth with his armies.
In case Thanos used all his armies, precautions needed to be in place. Fortunately, they had the Ancient One to assist.
If Nick Fury could summon Captain Marvel back, that would be ideal. An invasion by Thanos wouldn’t be like in the movies; it might be a comprehensive assault. Even with his formidable strength, Wang Yang doubted he could protect Earth while dealing with Thanos.
Leaving that aside, if Thanos bombarded the surface directly, Wang Yang would find it challenging to handle. Thanos had an entire fleet. Even if he could destroy the entire fleet, it wouldn’t be easy.
Moreover, the fleet might be eradicated, but Thanos and his forces could easily engage in mass slaughter of ordinary people on Earth.
Powerful forces were necessary, not just the sorcerers of Kamar-Taj; even Nick Fury’s personnel needed to join in. As long as they held off these forces, Wang Yang could focus on dealing with Thanos.
With these thoughts, Wang Yang stood up and walked out of the room.
In the hall, Mordo was instructing the sorcerers to be on high alert, anticipating any unexpected changes. With so many extraterrestrial beings appearing, it was a precarious time, and more significant changes might occur soon.
After all the sorcerers had left, Wang Yang entered.
“Wang Yang, do you have something on your mind?” Mordo looked at Wang Yang entering, a bit surprised. Clearly, something had happened.
His expression turned serious.
“Grand Sorcerer, I’m afraid we might need your help with something!” Wang Yang saw the serious expression on Mordo’s face and knew that Mordo had probably guessed something.
Without concealing anything, he directly spoke, “It seems that Thanos is about to invade Earth. We need to mobilize all the sorcerers urgently!”
“Now, how many sorcerers in Kamar-Taj can engage in combat?” Hearing Wang Yang’s words, Mordo’s expression became even more serious.
He had also heard General Ronan mention the formidable strength of Thanos’s army. If they invaded, the entire Kamar-Taj might experience a baptism.
“And how many Grand Sorcerers do we have?” After contemplating for a moment, Mordo spoke.
“The sorcerers in Kamar-Taj have undergone many years of training, and we have around fifty to sixty thousand combat-ready sorcerers. We also have several dozen Grand Sorcerers!” After thinking for a moment, Mordo responded.
Wang Yang couldn’t help but feel shocked. Although he knew that Kamar-Taj had existed for countless years, the number of sorcerers should have reached the limit for humans, possibly equivalent to Captain America’s strength.
Even though he hadn’t witnessed Captain America training, Iron Man was continuously enhancing his battle suit, and Captain America wouldn’t fall behind.
During the Battle of Endgame, Captain America used Thor’s hammer and executed a combo, even momentarily overwhelming Thanos.
So, Captain America must have been working hard during this period.
Of course, the veteran sorcerers might not have the physique of Captain America, but magically, they should surpass him. This meant that there were at least fifty to sixty thousand individuals with strength comparable to Captain America’s.
“We actually have so many sorcerers!” Wang Yang had seen them before, but there were at most one or two thousand. It was already quite spectacular.
Now, Mordo’s statement left him astonished.
