All People's Abyss: My skills are infinitely enhanced

Chapter 813 The Land of Nothingness
Xandar, the headquarters of the Nova Corps, is a planet that enjoys considerable fame in the entire interstellar civilization.

Although the Nova Corps is generally peace-loving, its own military strength is not weak and it will also provide protection for nearby areas.

Because of this reputation, many different cosmic races chose to settle on Xandar.

This also means that this planet, which orbits three stars, has a population of up to 120 billion.

Recently, Xandar had its third conflict with the Kree Empire and is about to enter the final stages of negotiations.

In terms of the absolute combat power of both sides, the Kree Empire, as one of the three major empires, has a clear advantage.

But the Nova Corps is not a weakling, and mindless fighting will only benefit others, so in the end they all tend to negotiate peace.

After this rumor spread, the entire planet of Xandar has gradually emerged from the shadow of war, and there are many more people on the streets.

In the landmark fountain square, people of all races are relaxing and enjoying the cool air.

There are all kinds of shapes, hair colors, and skin colors.

But for the most part, they are still human-like images, with many differences in details.

The occasional raccoons and tree people also make up a small minority.

"Oh, it's really bad. The war is about to end and we are running out of food. We haven't been open lately."

A little raccoon walking upright, carrying a kind of armed backpack in a very funny way, said with some complaints.

Next to him, there was a tree man over three meters tall, walking slowly.

Although the tree man looked very slow, due to his height, the raccoon had to jog to keep up with every step he took.

"Groot."

It seems that the tree man Groot can only speak these slow words, but the little raccoon seems to be able to understand what he means.

"But if there is peace, we will have no food to eat. We are bounty hunters. We will go wherever there is unrest."

The little raccoon muttered.

"I heard some time ago that the rag pickers from the Ziraita went to provoke Asgard. Maybe there is business there too."

Raccoon Rocket's source of intelligence is still quite good, and it seems that he has found the next place.

"But recently, the Asgardians have rarely taken serious actions outside. I don't know if something went wrong. Their reputation is gone..."

Almost immediately after Rocket said this while shaking his head, a layer of clouds suddenly appeared in the sky of Xandar, looking quite abrupt.

Then the next moment, a colorful stream of light cut through the void and hit the fountain square directly!
One after another, human figures appeared from the rainbow bridge, and then the beam of light was seen moving. The place where it moved seemed to be refreshed, and new human figures kept appearing.

Soon, a group of 500 fully armed Asgardian warriors appeared in the fountain square, causing a burst of exclamations from the nearby people.

"The Asgardians are attacking!"

"Oh my God!"

"Xandar is finished..."

"..."

Some people kept running, forcing the small Rocket to dodge in a panic. Then they had to climb on top of Gruul's head, and relying on Gruul's size, they looked at the Asgardians in front of them.

The raccoon also showed a look of surprise on his face.

"Oh shit, did they hear me and come to arrest me?"

Rocket was sucking his hands with his two little paws, seeming to be a little nervous.

Even though he always appears to be fearless, in many cases it is actually a self-disguise.

"Oh, maybe they're here to catch you."

Rocket was startled by the sudden voice, and then he turned around to see a handsome figure in a white robe, who was graceful and looked like an immortal.

Just standing here, this person is filled with a sense of greatness and glory, as if he is showing the beauty of the world and holding a scepter in his hand.

But for some reason, even though the opponent's performance in all aspects was almost perfect, the Rockets felt that the positive and sunny feeling they gave to others was always mixed with a weird feeling of extremes.

This made Tao Yu glance sideways at him. The deep look in his eyes seemed to see through Huo Jian's heart, making him nervous all of a sudden.

"Don't be nervous. You are bounty hunters, right? I wonder if you will accept the offer for hire."

As Tao Yu spoke, he raised his head. At this moment, there were also aircrafts of the Nova Corps in the sky, flying towards this side nervously.

Although the battle with the Kree has come to an end and the two sides have entered the stage of peace talks, the alert on Xandar has always been there.

Even though the Rainbow Bridge was so unexpected, defensive forces still arrived in the first place.

"Oh, if the price is right, we can still consider it."

Although Rocket was a little nervous, he appeared to be calm on the surface, while also aiming at the Nova Corps' aircraft.

When he was a bounty hunter, he hated these law enforcers, but now he just wanted these guys to be stronger.

At this time, the aircraft flying over also had an external speaker.

"Asgardians, tell us your purpose. Coming here suddenly violates the traditional agreement between interstellar civilizations."

This time, in addition to the 500 Asgard warriors teleported over, there were also Thor and Sif leading the team.

After hearing the loudspeaker, Thor also smiled.
"I'm sorry, we've always done it this way. We've never signed the traditional agreement you mentioned."

Although Asgard has always been making a living on its own small piece of land, their own reputation also gives them the confidence to be willful!

"But we have no ill intentions this time, otherwise there wouldn't be so few of us. You can think of it as us wanting to find the Chirita people to argue with them and temporarily borrow your planet to rest. Is that okay?"

After Thor had been trained by Tao Yu, his temper had been restrained a lot, and he even knew how to smooth things over afterwards.

At this time, Sif also stood up and played the good cop to ease the atmosphere and said
"We sincerely apologize for disturbing you."

In a flash, they dropped five hundred heavy soldiers at their doorstep, and the individual capabilities of Asgard warriors are well-known in the cosmic civilization.

Now willing to lower their attitude and give way, the Nova Corps did not mean to fight back directly, but accepted this rather unexpected "visit".

"You're with the Asgardians?"

At this time, Huo Jian said to Tao Yu who was fortune-telling next to him.

"That's it."

Tao Yu raised his eyebrows and glanced at Huo Jian, it seemed that this guy also had some clues that interested him, which was quite surprising.

"We are willing to accept your employment..."

Rocket seemed to have considered something, and after Sif expressed her "peaceful" attitude, she agreed directly...

-

The headquarters of the Nova Corps is a landmark building in Xandar. It looks magnificent and full of a sense of science fiction.

The legion logo hanging outside is also very conspicuous.

Tao Yu, Rocket and the tree man Gruul were all staying in a corner of the legion reception hall, while Rocket was jumping and dancing here.

The Nova Corps medical soldier who was supposed to receive them also felt that his expression was a little subtle.

I can only stand aside with a smile.

"Wow, I like your reward."

Rocket looked at the close-fitting soft armor on his body, seemed quite excited, and kept looking around.

A layer of soft armor with a silver-white metallic color that perfectly fits his body makes Rockets very satisfied.

"nice! You love it."

Tao Yu has Zoro's [Gift Craftsman] and the Uru-Steel from Asgard. He uses the power of the Space Stone to crush the Sacred Steel and then reshape it.

It is not difficult to form a set of close-fitting soft armor.

At this time, Thor and Sif also walked out of the Nova Group headquarters.

As the representative of Asgard, he has also completed the talks with the Nova Corps. Five hundred Asgard warriors are now temporarily placed on Xandar.

At the same time, the Nova Corps is also willing to sell several spaceships to them.

Asgard has many local specialties, and even though it is relatively closed, this kind of transaction can be easily completed.

"It's settled. This is our ID card. We can move freely in Xandar. It also contains some local currency."

Sif handed the magnetic card to Tao Yu, and then glanced at the rocket next to her.

I don’t know why this Wizard Jack hired two freaks after he came here.

Although he is a bounty hunter, it seems that he could find something more reliable.

"I don't know what Master Jack is thinking or what clues he has. We in Asgard don't communicate much with the outside world. Although we can help with some communication, we still have shortcomings in some areas."

Xifu explained to Tao Yu patiently.

This time she was ordered to assist Tao Yu. She was just looking for an excuse to cause trouble for the Zirita people so that the Asgardians could leave the Nine Realms more naturally and not appear too abrupt.

After all, Asgard is too powerful. Even if Odin has been cultivating himself for thousands of years, suddenly breaking his past habits may still cause fear and resistance.

The current situation is almost at a suitable level.

However, as for clues to the other two cosmic stones, there is really nothing we can do.

"I need to find two people now, one is the plunderer Yondu, and the other is Thanos's adopted daughter Gamora. At the same time, I also want to find a suitable channel to pass a message to Thanos."

Tao Yu slowly stretched out his finger and stated his purpose.

"Oh, do you want to teach Thanos a lesson? He is indeed too abominable. He doesn't even take us Asgardians seriously."

Thor said with a solemn oath.

The Chirita's attack on Earth was also a humiliation for Asgard.

Rocket, who was standing next to him, had also heard of Thanos's reputation, and was trembling when he heard their conversation.

"Let me make it clear first, although I am willing to be hired, I will not commit suicide. You Asgardians are indeed powerful, but you are still too naive to challenge Thanos with just 500 people."

Rocket's words made Thor turn his head and look over.
"Adults speak, children don't interrupt."

Rocket got furious when he heard that, and wanted to pounce over immediately, but he was pinned down by Tao Yu in mid-air. He was waving his arms and legs over there, which was actually quite cute.

"Okay, we are not going to challenge Thanos now, we just want to bring him good news."

"Good news? You know that the Chirita are Thanos' lackeys, right?"

Rocket said with some confusion.

"It must be good news. We know a clue about what he has been thinking about day and night."

After hearing this, Sif pondered for a moment and said.

"Is there a rough stone that he needs to get?"

"perhaps."

"Haha, brother Jack, I like you like this. Let him take it first, and then we can take it away from him."

Thor also understood what he meant and laughed out loud. At the same time, he bumped his fists together, producing some electric light.

This made the rockets that were previously baring their fangs and claws pause slightly.

This big guy doesn't seem to be easy to mess with...

"I know an intelligence dealer. You have good stuff anyway, so you can definitely exchange it for the information you want from him."

After all, Rocket is a veteran bounty hunter, and he has quite a few channels of his own...

……

The intelligence dealer that Rocket mentioned actually opened his shop very openly, in the most prime location next to the Fountain Square.

It seems to be an arms dealer. After entering the store, there are all kinds of interstellar individual weapons.

There were even some 3D projections of spaceships, and it seemed that even spaceships were for sale.

"Hey man, big business."

Rocket climbed onto Gruul's shoulders, making himself appear taller.

"Oh, I hope I can bring some good news." The blue-skinned clerk standing behind the sales counter seemed to be familiar with rockets. After hearing him call, he directly pressed a button, and then the store was quickly closed and temporarily isolated from the outside world.

Tao Yu, Saul and the other two were not surprised. After all, they were not afraid of being robbed.

"We need intelligence from two people, and then a reliable subpoena."

"No problem. You know me. I have a very good reputation in this field. You have already submitted many bounty missions to me."

The tipster shrugged.

However, his main attention was still on Tao Yu and the others behind him, or to be more precise, on Thor.

"Thor Odinson, the God of Thunder, Crown Prince of Asgard, if you want to collect information, it seems quite normal. I can buy some information about the current situation of the Chiritars and even Thanos here."

He had also been paying attention to the Asgardians' airborne landing in Fountain Square.

The closure was completed so easily. The rocket was just a trigger. The key point was to value the business of these Asgardians.

After Sif expressed her demands, the intelligence businessman inserted a strand of his hair directly into the computer and nodded.
“I know about Yongdu’s intelligence. He used to be a member of the Predators, but he was expelled because he kidnapped underage cubs and broke the rules of the Predators.

"He should not be in the nearby star field recently. He is driving a plunderer spaceship, so it is difficult to locate him. But he should have taken on the mission of 'Collector' recently and often appears in the void..."

It has to be said that people who can be intelligence traders are more or less capable.

Yondu is just an expelled plunderer. Although he is famous, he has been wandering around without a fixed place to stay.

But the other party was able to roughly grasp the location.

However, it seems that the most likely possibility is that the other party relied on the bounty hunter's task system to complete the positioning. It was through the interweaving of the task system that we roughly understood the other party's location.

It is likely that 'The Collector' has also issued quests on their side.

Likewise, others can definitely buy some information about the Asgardians from him...

"So, can I know what the mission the 'Collector' gave him?"

"This is against the rules."

The intelligence businessman said with some embarrassment.

"I think this should be in line with the rules."

Sif took out a bag of precious metals and placed it in front of the other person...

-

"I know the Collector. He is an ancient immortal who even existed during my grandfather's time. He is a very mysterious person."

After leaving the shop, Thor couldn't wait to tell Tao Yu the information he knew.

In the original book, after obtaining the Reality Stone, Thor and his friends handed it over to the collector for safekeeping, so it is normal for them to know something about the collector.

"As an ancient immortal, it is not surprising that he knows about the cosmic stones and wants to collect them."

Tao Yu nodded. He had already confirmed from the other party that it was indeed the Power Stone as described.

It is located on a desolate planet and has many mechanisms, but the exact location is uncertain.

Yongdu should have found the clue to this.

"So it's not surprising that he has clues about the Power Stone, and it's likely that he has delegated more than one team."

Ronan, Thanos, and the Collector are all looking for the Power Stone.

Extending downwards, the most direct competition is between Yondu, Star-Lord, and Gamora.

If Rocket and Gamora hadn't been in the way, it would most likely have fallen into Star-Lord's hands.

However, for now, Star-Lord should not betray Yondu yet. Yondu received the mission first, and then Star-Lord took over the second mission from Yondu.

It's just that after Star-Lord got the goods, he wanted to keep them all for himself...

"What about us now?"

Sif confirmed it again.

"According to the original plan, you will take the Asgardian warriors to discuss the matter with the Ziraita people, while I will go to the Land of Nothingness."

It is definitely impossible for Thor and Sif to confront Thanos directly, but Odin is alive and well now, and Thanos has not lost his mind. Unless it involves a conflict like the Infinity Stones, he will not directly attack Thor for the time being.

According to Tao Yu's divination, there is no problem with their safety.

It is mainly through them that they put some pressure on Thanos that Asgard is paying attention to, so that Thanos can speed up the collection of the Infinity Stones.

At this time, with the clues and required information of the Soul Stone, even if Thanos has some doubts, he will definitely try it.

Otherwise, this purple potato spirit is very patient. It would be a waste of time if he kept delaying getting the information after knowing it.

"As long as Thanos takes Nebula as a hostage, Gamora will eventually compromise. As for whether Thanos will use nesting dolls in the end, that is his business."

Tao Yu looked at the little raccoon and said to him

"Can the spaceship fly?"

"Don't underestimate me!"

The Rockets seem to feel that they are being questioned, and they are very confident about mechanical modifications and some controls.

"Ah, I said I would go to the Land of Nothingness with you."

Saul looked disappointed.

"You are the God of Thunder. What if the warriors of Asgard suffer without your leadership?"

Tao Yu coaxed Sol casually, which made him straighten his chest.
"You are right. The Zirita people did that. I do want them to give an explanation."

The Chirita fleet of three motherships headed for Earth, but was almost instantly wiped out, without even sending any signal back.

Ebony Maw, Black Dwarf and the Mind Scepter are all missing, which is a tragic loss for Thanos.

If the Asgardians come to them in a threatening manner at this time, it is unlikely that the Chirita will get angry, and at most they will blame it on Loki.

After all, if Loki is involved, it will become Asgard's own business. They are at most external aid, which will be much easier to explain...

……

A small delta-wing spacecraft was parked directly on the roof platform of a building.

The overall length of the spacecraft is only about 40 meters. It is silver-white in color, has no tires, and is only supported by a simple bracket.

In terms of size, it is not as big as those passenger planes and looks relatively small.

The streamlined hull looked very beautiful. As Tao Yu approached, the spacecraft's identification system slowly lowered the landing ladder.

Rocket climbed up the stairs and said excitedly
"It's very good, it's the latest model, and it's hard to buy. The Nova Corps is very respectful to the Asgardians. It won't take long to reach the void with this."

The Rockets were rubbing their hands together in excitement.

Then he ran quickly on all fours inside the spacecraft a few times and jumped onto the control console.

Relatively speaking, the control handle is even bigger than the rocket itself.

But this did not pose a problem for him. He immediately took out various disassembly tools and started to take apart the joystick.

Although his movements looked clumsy, Tao Yu, who had studied with Tony for a long time, could still feel Rocket's proficiency.

This guy has a high talent for mechanics. After dismantling the original control panel in a few seconds, he modified it himself.

Finally, using a few wrenches and metal rods, he completed a small joystick that fit his body better.

"Cool, boss, sit down, it's rocket time!"

Rocket let out a strange cry, and then quickly turned on the rows of buttons on the spacecraft panel. Lights and various indicator sounds sounded one after another.

After the instrument lights flashed in a regular pattern, he pushed the joystick with both hands and pulled it hard.

The spaceship parked on the rooftop helipad suddenly took off into the air with a burst of flames and accelerated instantly!
After all, it is an interstellar civilization. The spacecraft provided by Xandar easily completed the switching between inside and outside the atmosphere.

It also has a high resistance to gravitational capture.

Although it looks small, it has a very high technical content.

For example, although the Chirita mothership is huge, it lacks the ability to directly enter the Earth's atmosphere and is easily captured and torn apart by gravity.

"Yo ho~"

Rocket accelerated, and the push on his back was so strong that Gruul had to extend his roots to tie himself up because he was caught off guard. He also muttered something like a complaint.

"Gruul."

However, Rocket was a little surprised to see Tao Yu not sitting on a chair, without any protection, just floating beside him casually.

"You individuals with extraordinary abilities are really unreasonable. Are all Asgardians like this?"

Amid the rocket's chattering, the spacecraft crashed directly into a nearby space channel, flashing like a diamond-shaped block and began to jump rapidly.

In terms of driving skills, Rocket and Star-Lord are both top-notch.

Experiencing this kind of space jump on a spaceship for the first time, Tao Yu had a completely different feeling from the Rainbow Bridge.

Although he could do better with the Space Gem, it did not prevent him from collecting relevant data. Looking at the colorful texture when jumping, it was similar to the same shuttle principle of the Rainbow Bridge to some extent.

The only difference is that the Rainbow Bridge absorbs the energy of the World Tree and can itself be seen as a weapon, penetrating space directly from the source, while this kind of interstellar channel jump is more of a reinforcement that utilizes some naturally formed weak points in space.

Different routes have different requirements for the mass and speed of passing spacecraft.

"In fact, the teleportation that is closest to the essence is the teleportation formed by the world's will, similar to the Marvel Universe. If you leave here, you can't play it. You can only collect some data and experience."

Tao Yu's eyes were filled with flashes of data. He tried his best to record them with his talent. At the same time, he said to Rockets:

"Actually, I'm a little curious about your existence. Do you mind talking about it?"

Tao Yu divined that Rocket could bring her something useful, and since the divination was quite obvious and there was nothing obscure, it should not be the Infinity Stones this time, but other secrets of his.

It seemed that there were some secrets hidden in Rocket, such as his life experience, which also made Tao Yu quite interested.

Since you are here, you might as well ask.

However, after hearing Tao Yu's words, Rocket's excitement at touching the spacecraft suddenly cooled down, as if he was recalling something he didn't want to think about at all.

"Boss, I just accepted your employment. I have no obligation to answer topics outside of this mission."

Rocket's voice was a little dry.

"Oh, it seems that your sad story was mentioned."

"No, I have no reason to be sad. I am Rocket, the best bounty hunter."

The Rockets denied it flatly, but Tao Yu could still feel the fluctuations in his emotions.

But it is true. A talking raccoon with signs of modification on its body may have encountered something unspeakable.

"If the rocket is really a man-made product, then the other party's research in the biological field is quite solid. Is it because of the 'Life Equation' that it brings good luck?"

Tao Yu thought of the monument of life that had not yet been deciphered.

It would be funny if this is not cracked after getting all the Infinity Gems.

Maybe we can dig deeper...

Just as Tao Yu was recording various jumping parameters along the way and coordinating with his own spatial talent and the linkage of the spatial gems to leave a series of Flying Thunder God's coordinate points, Rocket did not break his promise.

Relying on the Nova Corps' latest high-speed spacecraft, it only took him a few days to reach the Land of Nothingness.

zizi~
Accompanied by a flash of diamond-shaped colorful light in the deep starry sky, a spaceship jumped out of the passage.

Small pieces of meteorites float around, and the light from distant stars makes the overall environment here seem a little dim.

Looking ahead, a space station formed by a huge skull skeleton appeared in front.

Even though the distance was still quite far, the outline of this giant skull skeleton could be clearly seen. It looked somewhat creepy as it floated in the dark starry sky.

There were traces of the spacecraft constantly going in and out of the skull's eyes, mouth and other places. It seemed that the skull of this unknown giant creature had been transformed into a space station.

Tao Yu was also staring at the huge strange head in front of him.

Even if we don't know how many years have passed since his death, there is still a strong aura left.

The heads of the members of the Celestial God Group...
