Chapter 568 - Chapter 568: Forces Against the Zerg

Under the threat of the Annihilation Zerg from the Negative Space, civilizations across the universe have now put aside their disputes and formed a united front against the Zerg.

However, even so, in the eyes of most people, if this battle continues to develop this way, there is still no possibility of victory.

The Annihilation Zerg of the Negative Space are counted in the countless trillions. After all, they are monsters that devoured an entire universe, leaving the resources of the entire Negative Space completely depleted, and their numbers exceed the current intelligent races of the entire universe by millions of times. Moreover, they have been tempered through countless wars.

Don't let the Scarlet Witch's ease in dealing with those bugs—like slicing through melons and vegetables—fool you. In reality, each of these bugs is a super-creature capable of surviving in space. Even the weakest bug is positioned similarly to the Parademons of Apokolips, while some powerful bugs are no less formidable than cosmic-level Superheroes.

Especially at the beginning of the war, the Zerg captured Galactus. Relying on the primordial cosmic energy converted by Galactus, they significantly accelerated the Zerg's evolution speed and individual combat capabilities.

Although Galactus constantly claims he's hungry and out of energy, the energy within him is actually extremely abundant; it's just that most of it is condensed into energy planets, and there isn't much available for him to allocate.

As one of the six cosmic fundamental gods, Galactus naturally wouldn't violate his duties. He wouldn't extract the energy from within himself intended for creating planets or even restarting the universe.

But the Annihilation Zerg don't care about all that. Regardless of what that energy is for, they just extract it!

Primordial cosmic energy is inherently the most suitable energy for enhancement, and the Zerg's adaptability and evolutionary potential are top-notch. Furthermore, the bugs aren't afraid of death. Through successive experiments, they quickly created a batch of Super Zerg that many Superheroes in this universe couldn't withstand. The front lines were pushed back repeatedly, nearly reaching the capital planet of the Shiar Empire.

At this time, most of the Superheroes on Earth also came to SWORD, preparing to listen to Tony Stark's explanation.

After all, you can't just say a cosmic war broke out and expect everyone to believe it. What if you're setting us up? Besides, what does a cosmic war have to do with us?

Fortunately, Tony Stark was already prepared—or rather, Galactus's daughter, Galacta, was prepared.

Despite Galacta's appearance as a little girl, her official Marvel stats are maxed out in all six categories, all at the highest Level 7!

Needless to say about the others, Level 7 Intelligence is officially explained as being omniscient!

Of course, omniscience only means a vast store of knowledge; whether one can come up with new inventions depends on inspiration. But this already shows that Galacta's technological level is absolutely extremely high, at the forefront of the universe.

During this time, Galacta—this little girl of unknown thousands or tens of thousands of years—commanded the two "uncles," Tony Stark and Mr. Fantastic Richard, to significantly modify SWORD's Helicarriers and create some ultra-long-range observation satellites that could see almost anywhere in the entire universe.

Theoretically, the stars people observe are light transmitted from unknown light-years away, so they are images from many years ago.

However, the Marvel World has countless black technologies. These ultra-long-range observation satellites obviously couldn't just see scenes from years ago; they could see the entire Zerg battlefield in real-time.

Thus, when all the Superheroes entered, they could see the fierce battle taking place on the large screen behind Tony Stark. The desolate starry sky, the endless sea of bugs, the massive cosmic battleships, and the constant slaughter captured every Superhero's gaze.

There was also a small cosmic star map marking the entire universe, the Zerg, major civilizations, and Earth's location. There was even a simulation timetable showing how much time it would take for the Zerg to reach Earth.

It must be said that this scene was indeed quite striking. The Superheroes who were originally dismissive of Tony Stark's actions immediately felt a sense of urgency upon seeing all this.

To show sincerity, Tony Stark even brought out the blueprints for the entire long-range observation satellite and allowed the tech-oriented Superheroes to inspect them at will.

After people like Beast Hank, Doctor Doom, and Magneto inspected it, they were finally convinced that Tony Stark's observation satellite wasn't a hollow shell or some illusion. What they saw was indeed the current state of the universe. Those Superheroes finally changed their mindset, no longer thinking it was a scam or none of their business.

"However," Cyclops, the leader of the X-Men this time, frowned and spoke, "What can we do in this war? I don't think that with our combat power alone, we can be of much help in this war."

At this moment, Galacta jumped out: "Although the technology here on Earth isn't high and the average strength isn't that great, you really do have an excessive number of Superheroes. There are several powerhouses who can reach the current limits of the universe."

"A normal battle is actually meaningless. In terms of numbers, military force, technology, and other aspects, the Annihilation Zerg are simply not an opponent that this universe can defeat through normal means."

"So, to win this battle, there are only a few ways. Either a universe-level deity—namely my father—intervenes. Or we directly employ decapitation tactics to eliminate the current Zerg leaders and high-ranking officials. Or we search for some super-artifacts that can instantly modify cosmic laws and annihilate the Zerg."

"And none of these can be achieved just by having advanced technology or a large army."

In fact, the Three Major Empires are also working hard to find the locations of the Zerg high-ranking leaders or to find other cosmic artifacts. For example, the Shiar Empire found news of the M'Kraan Crystal, but it was just news.

Moreover, the M'Kraan Crystal in Marvel, although called a universal wish-granting machine, is actually similar to that broken cup in the Type-Moon World. Out of ten wishes, eight or nine won't succeed, and even if they do, there are often a bunch of strange and messy problems. It can only be used as a last resort.

However, no one is thinking about saving Galactus—it can't be helped; unlike Earthlings, cosmic civilizations like the Three Major Empires almost all have blood feuds with Galactus.

The Skrulls' home planet was swallowed whole, and many other planets of cosmic civilizations were devoured by Galactus. If the three major civilizations actually found Galactus, the possibility of them throwing an antimatter bomb would likely be higher.
