The three of them were silent for a moment, each lost in their thoughts.
Until Kara suddenly broke the silence: "Since we are here, why not try its warping function?"
Wanda also became interested: "Yeah, since we have nothing to do now, why don't we go for a walk outside?"
Xiao Han laughed, but did not refuse: "Okay, let's go and have some fun."
He walked over to the main console and punched in the coordinates.
"Jinwu, activate space warp, target: Titan!"
"Command confirmed." Jinwu's mechanical voice echoed in the cabin.
The engines roared, energy gathered at the tail of the spacecraft, and space began to distort.
Next second
Swish!
The Golden Crow disappeared instantly, leaving behind only a circle of space ripples that had not yet subsided.
The space near Titan fluctuated slightly, and the Golden Crow broke away from the warp state, and the huge ship glided silently in the starry sky.
Through the porthole, the full view of Titan slowly came into view.
A huge, earthy yellow planet covered with broken continents and dried-up oceans.
The atmosphere is so thin that traces of past civilizations can be vaguely seen, but now only desolation remains.
Wanda stood in front of the porthole, her crimson eyes reflecting the planet. She couldn't help but sigh, "Xiao, this is Titan? The hometown of the cosmic overlord Thanos you told us about?"
There was a hint of shock in her voice. "It's bigger than I thought."
Kara stood beside her, arms folded across her chest, her expression calm. "There are many more spectacular planets in the universe than this one."
She paused, "Before Krypton was destroyed, I drifted on a spaceship for a long time and saw many similar scenes."
Wanda turned her head to look at her: "So, this is how you felt when you first saw the universe?"
Kara shrugged. "More or less, but I was too young at the time. I felt more fear than emotion."
Xiao Han stood in front of the main console, tapping his finger on the holographic star map. "Titan's gravitational field is stable. Although the atmosphere is thin, we don't need to breathe and can land directly."
Chapter 112 Titan
The Jinwu's thrusters adjusted their angles and slowly descended towards the surface of Titan.
As the distance gets closer, the details on the planet's surface become clearer.
Broken mountains, dried-up riverbeds, collapsed buildings, and streets buried by wind and sand.
The entire planet seemed to be forgotten by time, leaving only eternal silence.
Wanda stared at the approaching surface and whispered, "This place was once a prosperous civilization, right?"
"It used to be." Xiao Han said lightly.
"But now, it's just ruins."
The spacecraft landed steadily on a plain on Titan and the hatch slowly opened.
Xiao Han walked out first, his boots stepping on the dry sand, but the bio-force field controlled it and did not raise any dust.
Wanda and Kara followed closely behind, and the three of them stood on the land of Titan and looked around.
desolate.
That's the only word that can describe this place.
The sky was a dark red, with no clouds, no birds, only eternal silence.
The wreckage of buildings in the distance stood silently on the horizon like the skeleton of a giant beast.
Kara frowned slightly: "There's not even a sign of life here."
"After Thanos left, this place was completely dead." Xiao Han stepped forward.
"Let's go and see the last traces of this civilization."
Wanda took a deep breath and followed his lead.
Their figures gradually disappeared in the ruins of Titan, as if three tiny passers-by stepped into a story long forgotten by the universe.
Soon, they arrived in the city.
Wanda looked around, her long crimson hair blowing gently in the breeze.
This dead world was reflected in her eyes, and her voice was filled with shock: "This is Thanos' hometown?"
Kara stood beside her, her Kryptonian super vision scanning the entire ruins, her expression calm: "Although I just said it, it's still more desolate than I imagined."
She paused, "However, there are many planets like this in the universe. The rise and fall of civilizations is just a matter of a moment."
Xiao Han led the two of them forward.
Titan is long dead.
The once tall buildings are now only broken walls and ruins, and the huge dome buildings have collapsed into ruins.
The streets were covered with yellow sand, occasionally revealing a few weathered corpses.
The air was filled with the smell of dust. There was no life, no sound, only eternal silence.
Wanda followed him, looking at everything around her, and asked, "What on earth is going on here?"
"Civil war." Xiao Han said lightly.
"Thanos predicted the depletion of resources and the collapse of civilization. His people refused to believe it, and in the end, they destroyed themselves through war."
Kara hovered half a meter above the ground, her eyes scanning the ruined buildings. "So Thanos was right?"
"Half right." Xiao Han stopped and looked at a giant tilted statue in the distance.
The face of Thanos could still be vaguely recognized, but it had now been eroded beyond recognition by wind and sand.
“Resources do run out, but killing is never the answer.”
Wanda was silent for a moment, then she said softly, "He could have found another way."
"But he chose the most extreme path." Kara shook her head.
"Mad men always do that."
Xiao Han did not continue the topic, but raised his hand and pointed to a circular building in the distance: "That should be the core council hall of Titan. Let's go and take a look."
The three of them walked through the ruins and soon arrived in front of the half-collapsed circular building.
The huge metal door had long been rusted. Xiao Han just pushed it lightly, and the whole door fell down with a loud bang, stirring up a cloud of dust.
The interior space is dim and empty, with a broken holographic projection device suspended in the center.
The seats around were tilted all over the place, as if a heated debate was still going on at the last moment.
Wanda approached the projection device, touched it lightly with her fingertips, and chaos magic seeped into it.
嗡
The remaining energy was activated, the blurry holographic image flickered a few times, and then a fragmented picture emerged.
A group of Titans were arguing fiercely, and the young Thanos stood in the middle, saying something with a stern face.
There was no sound in the video, but it could be seen that his proposal was opposed by everyone.
Some people slammed the table angrily, some sneered and shook their heads. In the end, Thanos turned and left with a resolute back.
The screen ends here.
Wanda withdrew her hand and whispered, "This is how it all began."
Kara crossed her arms and said calmly, "Stubbornness will ultimately lead to self-destruction."
Xiao Han didn't comment, but walked deeper into the council hall. His eyes fell on a wall.
It is engraved with ancient characters from Titan, recording the last wail of this civilization.
"They had a chance to change," he whispered.
"But pride and fear destroyed them."
Wanda walked over to him and looked at the words. Although she couldn't understand them, she could feel the despair contained in them: "After Thanos left, this place completely collapsed?"
"Yeah." Xiao Han nodded.
"Civil war broke out, resources were consumed madly, and in the end, there was nothing left."
Kara floated over and suddenly pointed to a corner: "There is something there."
Xiao Han followed her gaze and found a metal plate stuck in the gap of the wall.
He walked over and pulled it out. It was a record board engraved with the last words of the last Speaker of Titan.
We were wrong.
But it was too late.
Just two lines of words, but they seem to weigh a thousand pounds.
Wanda looked at the metal plate in silence for a long time, and finally sighed softly: "What would Thanos think when he saw this?"
"He won't care." Xiao Han said lightly.
"In his eyes, it just proves he's right."
Kara shook her head: "What a lunatic."
Xiao Han put away the metal plate, turned around and walked out: "Let's go, there's nothing to see here anymore."
The three of them left the council hall and stood on the wasteland of Titan again.
The dark red sky seemed frozen forever, with no clouds, no wind, only dead silence.
Wanda looked up at the universe and whispered, "The universe is so big, but why is it that destruction is always easier than creation?"
Kara glanced at her, rarely refraining from teasing. She simply said calmly, "Because destruction only requires madness, while creation requires wisdom and patience."
Xiao Han did not participate in their conversation, but just looked into the distance.
The setting sun on Titan slowly sank into the horizon, and the last ray of light sprinkled on the ruins, as if offering the final mourning for this dead civilization.
"Time to go," he said finally.
Wanda and Kara nodded, and the three of them turned and walked towards the Golden Crow.
Behind him, the ruins of Titan were gradually swallowed by darkness.
Just like countless forgotten civilizations in the universe, they will eventually be lost in the long river of time.
Soon, the three of them boarded the spaceship and sat on the recliners made of nanomaterials.
The spacecraft slowly took off and disappeared on Titan.
PS: I will post two chapters first. I am still typing, and there will be two more chapters later. I wish you all a happy holiday and a long time to come.
Chapter 113 Kree Empire
Inside the spacecraft
Wanda stood at the porthole, took one last look at the ochre-colored planet that was gradually receding into the distance, and whispered, "The demise of a civilization is so quiet."
Kara leaned against the console, arms folded across her chest. "The universe never shows mercy to the weak. Destruction is the norm."
Xiao Han did not respond, but walked to the main console and ran his fingertips across the holographic star map.
His eyes locked onto a coordinate: Hala, the home planet of the Kree Empire.
"Golden Crow." He said.
"Set course to the Kree home planet."
"Command confirmed." Jinwu's mechanical voice echoed in the cabin.
"Target coordinates locked, activate the space warp engine."
The spacecraft's thrusters lit up with a faint blue light, and the space began to twist and compress, and then.
