Two scoundrels? Lin Feng was puzzled.
"Do you remember that Banished One from last time?"
Lin Feng nodded. "The guy in the black robe from the DC world? What's up? Is he behind this?"
"More than that, he's also enlisted a Banished One from the Marvel universe as an ally!" the system continued.
"The two shameless fellows, unscrupulously ambushing me without any martial ethics, all for the Superman template you just redeemed."
"And this system!"
At this point, the system's voice became even more indignant. "These two bastards even wanted to tamper with my database and pull me to their side! Utterly delusional!"
"A bunch of people with twisted values, I wouldn't deign to associate with them!"
Hearing this, Lin Feng's heart skipped a beat.
"Alright, alright, don't be angry. They didn't succeed, did they!" Lin Feng said to comfort it.
Since the system had returned safely, it proved that the Banished Ones' plan to tamper with the system had failed.
After comforting the system, Lin Feng immediately asked, "Then what about my Silver Superman template? Did they snatch it away?"
The system waved its hand. "Absolutely not. They gained nothing from me, rest assured, host!"
Sensing Lin Feng's worry, the system further explained, "After the Banished Ones appeared, I placed the Silver Superman template into a cubic device and randomly sent it to some point in the universe..."
"Hmm... you know, our universe."
"Once we return to our universe, you can continue evolving..."
"But before that, you need to complete the mission that was just issued!"
Lin Feng's hanging heart finally settled as the system explained. It was good that it wasn't taken.
After all, it was reputation points that Lin Feng had accumulated by saving countless disasters.
Now that the system was back, everything seemed to be back on track.
As for the mission, Lin Feng pulled up the panel again to check.
"I saw this mission. That Banished One will appear too, right?"
The system's answer was affirmative. "This time they intend to help Thanos, snapping his fingers to take away all life in the universe!"
"We can't let them get the Infinity Gauntlet. Without it, they'll be helpless!"
Hearing this, Lin Feng smiled nonchalantly. "It shouldn't be a big problem. With me here, they won't get the gauntlet!"
"When the time comes, I'll wear the gauntlet and snap my fingers, sending them all away neatly! To let you vent your anger!"
The system, however, shook its head. "Host, you're thinking too much. The Infinity Stones' snap won't work on them."
Lin Feng raised an eyebrow. "What do you mean?"
"They are like you, the host, traversers from beyond the fourth wall, possessing uniqueness."
"The Infinity Stones' snap will not affect you or them."
"You can use the Infinity Stones to defeat them, but they cannot erase them."
"Unless it's a physical death!"
As if fearing Lin Feng wouldn't understand, the system added, "In other words, you could use the Infinity Gauntlet to control a giant rock and smash them to death! Or use the energy of the Infinity Stones to burn their heads off!"
"But you cannot directly take their lives with the gauntlet!"
Lin Feng nodded thoughtfully.
"So, I can kill them, but I can't make them disappear with a snap, right?"
"Yes, that's the logic!"
Lin Feng smiled, showing no fear.
"Then it doesn't matter. Let's see whose fist is harder!"
"Team!" Tony suddenly called out, attracting everyone's attention.
Seeing everyone looking at him, Tony nodded with a solemn expression.
Everyone's hearts stirred, and they immediately gathered around. Lin Feng also stood up and walked over.
Tony pointed to the table. "I've finished building it..."
Everyone looked. Rocket Raccoon was tinkering with a golden-red mechanical glove under a robotic arm.
On the glove, six Infinity Stones lay peacefully.
Rocket was performing the final diagnostic program, saying without looking up, "The gauntlet is built..."
"The question is, who will make that damn snap?"
Everyone froze. The miserable state of Thanos after snapping twice was witnessed by everyone present.
Even a Titan body as strong as Thanos could barely make the snap and then fell into a weakened state.
The Titan body itself suffered severe damage.
Let alone ordinary people.
"I'll do it!"
Thor, who had ballooned into a sphere, suddenly stepped forward, reaching for the gauntlet.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa!" Captain America and Tony simultaneously stopped Thor.
Thor was currently filled with beer in his stomach and head. His success rate in making the snap in his current state was too low.
Look at what was flowing in his veins – probably cheese sauce!
The opportunity was too precious to let Thor take this risk.
"We haven't decided who will make the snap yet!" Captain America explained.
"What, are we just going to stand here and watch?" Thor panted, dissatisfied with their obstruction.
"Sitting here won't bring everyone back!"
"I am the strongest Avenger, let me!"
The others tried to dissuade him again, insisting that Thor not make the snap.
This made Thor almost cry with anxiety.
Poor Thor blamed himself for not stopping Thanos.
He had woken up in nightmares countless times, thinking if he had severed the head that time, the outcome would have been entirely different.
Heaven knew how much he longed for such an opportunity...
However, his teammates were now stopping him. Although Thor knew they meant well for him.
But Thor truly needed this chance...
Lin Feng stood by, watching this scene unfold.
Seeing their endless bickering, Lin Feng couldn't help but say, "How about I do it?"
As soon as he spoke, everyone looked at him uniformly, a hint of vigilance in their eyes.
"No!" Captain America said.
"Lin Feng, you don't belong to our universe, and you shouldn't bear this responsibility!"
"Besides, we don't know if you, from a parallel universe, making this snap will bring about other consequences!"
Captain America's words were righteous and hard to refute.
Lin Feng shrugged indifferently and said no more.
He knew no one would agree to let him make the snap.
Captain America's words sounded good on the surface, but the main reason was to guard against Lin Feng.
After all, they knew very little about Lin Feng. What if Lin Feng snapped his fingers and took away half the life in the universe? That would be disastrous...
After a period of debate, it was the green-headed Bruce who stepped forward.
Hulk was born from gamma radiation, and the Infinity Stones primarily released gamma rays.
He felt that his birth was as if it were meant for this moment of snapping.
Under everyone's gaze, Bruce picked up the gauntlet with the six stones...
