Thanos didn't want to be a villain.

"Millions of years ago, the Celestials visited Earth and left behind a seed. Tens of millions of years later, the Celestials came to Earth to conduct genetic experiments and created three races: the Eternals, humans, and the Abnormal."

"The Eternals, as the name suggests, have near-infinite lifespans, perfect physical appearances, and a variety of superpowers. As time has passed, a branch has emerged within the Eternals, whose inhabitants possess power that is difficult for ordinary Eternals to match, and their strength is as great as that of gods. They are known as the Eternal Gods."

"The abnormal individuals are the failed products of genetic experiments. Their genes are unstable, so they look all sorts of strange and ugly. The abnormal individuals with genetic defects are not welcomed by the Celestial Group and are despised by them."

"Because of the Celestials' attitude toward the Eternals and the Abnormal, the Abnormal are very hostile toward the Eternals, which is why we often have major battles."

"Later, we quickly defeated the Aberrants and almost wiped them out. The Eternals on Earth also attracted the attention of the Celestials again because of the war."

"And this time, there are humans."

As Dio explained, he kept an eye on the expressions of the others.

Most of them had expressions of horror and despair, except for the druid who had come to his senses and was completely bewildered.

Ajax maintained a composed facade, while Icarus, with tears in his eyes, strained to suppress his rage.

“And you,” Dio pointed at them, making those who were driven to despair by Dio’s words look at him.

"I found your story in some remote corner of the universe. It's not widely known, and it's even been treated as a ghost story to prevent children from crying at night."

"Legend has it that there are nine immortal beings in the universe. When they descend upon a planet, it means that the planet has begun its countdown, and these planets will explode in violent tremors."

“My investigation has revealed that your records even date back to before the birth of the Eternals.”

After Dio finished speaking, they all fell silent, except for Ajax, who made no move.

Serhi demanded, "Ajak, do you know something?!"

Ajax opened his eyes and gave a bitter smile.

"So what if I know? It's just a transitional chapter in our lives. I've just watched you meet, fall in love, separate, and reunite again and again, and even be killed by Icarus time and time again." Ajax chuckled.

Then he turned to Dio and said, "To be honest, if he hadn't told you beforehand, you might have just thought there was a sudden explosion and then you would have met again as new teammates."

Ajax's tone was silent and weary, causing a shift in the way everyone looked at her.

“Then you…” Dio interrupted Cecilia before she could finish speaking.

"Alright, this has certainly been a good show, but this isn't the place for you to reminisce. You can get out now!"

Dio waved his hand and used his telekinesis to send them flying out of the spaceship. Anyway, these people were thick-skinned and tough, so ordinary attacks were useless against them.

As for himself, he planned to leave directly. As for establishing diplomatic relations with Earth, Dio simply summoned a group of people to establish diplomatic relations with Earth, casually gave each of the five major rogue states a virtual universe helmet, and instructed them to enter the virtual universe to learn about anything they needed. Then he started the spaceship and left.

He still has things to do. 'Loki' came to find him, saying that he had encountered a time traveler.

Of course, before Dio left, he still put the ten rings in the hands of the Ancient One. The rings were no longer useful to him, so they were left on Earth to continue their work.

On the ground, those high-ranking leaders held virtual universe helmets in their hands, surrounded by diplomats from a battle group of Astartes salamander units, who were conducting diplomatic work with Earth.

Everyone watched as Dio's spaceship flew off the planet, then disappeared into a honeycomb-shaped hexagonal opening in the footage taken by Earth's satellites.

Everyone looked at each other in astonishment. This was a fictional creation from science fiction, and seeing it in person was truly an eye-opening experience.

Everyone looked at Tony Stark, who had been invited, their eyes seeming to say, "Are you sure you can handle this?"

But Tony Stark said you've come to the right person.

Although Tony Stark feared that his creations would be used by nations and militaries to massacre civilians, there was nothing he could do; Dio's appearance caused a shift in the strategic focus of various countries.

The high-ranking leaders glanced at the numerous Astartes of the Salamanders and ordered them to be taken ahead to rest, while Tony Stark followed behind.

"Mr. Stark, do you have the ability to replicate a virtual reality helmet?" The UN personnel looked at the five virtual reality helmets in their hands with some heartache, and set their sights on Tony Stark's.

“While I don’t want to discourage you, I’ve used all the technology I have available and still can’t scan the internal structure. I suspect it not only blocks detection but also has a self-destruct mechanism. But without knowing what’s inside, I can’t take it apart.” Tony Stark knew what they were thinking.

Although the top leaders had not yet used the five virtual reality helmets in their hands, they were all tempted after Tony Stark, who had used them, described them in person. In addition, since they were given to them by Dio himself, they had some ulterior motives.

"Let's not think about it anymore. If we want to continue, we should upgrade the technology first. This thing can transmit signals in the universe regardless of distance, except when jumping through space." Tony Stark hid his hands behind his back and twisted his nearest left wrist.

The leaders looked at each other in bewilderment, and before they could say anything, a series of exclamations came from the front.

A salamander chapter leader walked up to them.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt your party, but I still have to say something," he said as he walked up to everyone.

"My name is Zack, and I am the highest-ranking commander from the diplomatic corps accompanying us on this trip." Zack walked up to the group, removed his helmet, and revealed his face.

"Is there anything I can help you with?" a leader asked calmly.

"What I'm about to say might hurt someone's feelings, please forgive me." Zack apologized first, leaving everyone confused.

"The virtual universe helmet created by the Emperor utilizes the Empire's highest level of secrecy. Given that your civilization is currently unable to even leave its own planet, even if you have talents like Tony Stark, you would not be able to analyze our technology."

"Even if the Empire produces many pirated and cheap virtual universe helmets, they can only be used in specific regions and cannot be used throughout the entire universe."

"However, the technologies used in the two are very different. If you want to copy them, you can try using that one first. Also, don't think that just by enlarging the receiver, that thing can be used throughout the entire universe."

Everyone was taken aback by Zack's words.

Zack's words were calm, but they seemed to detect a hint of... contempt in them?

.........

"This is his newly created legion, but it's slightly off from what he envisioned. It holds a deep contempt for those who underestimate the Empire and overestimate themselves... Oh no, wait! I'm leaving right now!"
