Chapter 277 | The God of the Universe, the Finger Snap of Salvation.

Click! Click!

The mechanical glove made gear-like noises as if there were countless precise and tiny parts operating.

Nanomaterials automatically adjusted their size and firmly covered Luke's palm.

Before he could continue to feel it, this "Infinity Gauntlet" made by Iron Man, with six stones embedded in it, burst into dazzling light.

Zi zi! Zi zi zi!

All kinds of light blended together, like tiny electric snakes, wrapping Luke's right arm.

"Hiss! It's a little exciting!"

Luke took in a sharp breath. Like an electric shock, his body overflowed with a tingling sensation.

Of course, this was for Superman.

For others, it was probably equivalent to a strong high-voltage current through the body, directly burning them into charcoal.

A steady stream of cosmic energy was eroding Luke's skin.

Like a blazing flame with extremely high temperature that could melt flesh and burn bones.

Even Superman's suit, which could withstand cannons and remain unharmed, was damaged.

His right arm was exposed without any concealment. The firm muscles bulged like a hill, and thick veins appeared.

Repeating this process of healing and incineration, the scene looked a bit frightening.

"Luke, how are you ...? Are you ok?"

The superheroes gathered in the hall held their breaths and looked at Superman with nervous and expectant eyes. Among them, Captain America had concerns in his eyes and asked first.

He took two steps back and held the vibranium shield across his chest to prevent accidents.

The same was true for other Avengers, either wearing their uniforms or armors and hiding behind them.

Dr. Banner told them that the Infinity Stones were emitting an extremely violent stream of gamma rays.

Ordinary people couldn't bear terrifying the force at all, let alone put it on and snap their fingers completely.

Among everyone here, only Thor and Carol were qualified candidates to control that cosmic energy.

If Captain America or Iron Man were asked to complete this task, they would only be able to do either the former or the latter.

They had extraordinary courage and a sense of selflessness.

But the price!

Death!

After the Avengers discussed it, it was considered completely unnecessary.

Everyone had a more suitable candidate!

That's Superman!

"I'm ok. However, your reaction makes me feel like it's an extremely dangerous time bomb."

Luke's face showed no pain but rather relaxed.

The Allfather-level Superman's body against the six Infinity Stones wasn't an arduous task for him.

Rumble!

With his right hand clenched tightly, the infinite glove made of nanomaterials rippled with waves of air, visible to the naked eye.

The terrifying atmosphere was rising, turning into physical pressure, making some of the superheroes standing aside feel that even breathing was difficult.

Standing in the middle of the room, the upright body seemed to become even taller, emitting a real and unparalleled sense of oppression.

"In fact, you're in a way a portable gamma bomb."

Dr. Banner held a small energy detection instrument similar to a handheld in his left hand, and the readings on it soared wildly, directly breaking through the peak.

"If this cosmic energy erupts, it will probably erase the North American continent from the map."

A cold sweat broke out on Banner's forehead. He was afraid that Luke would lose control and blow himself and the superheroes in S.H.I.E.L.D headquarters into ash.

"Don't be so nervous, relax."

Luke smiled and slowly raised his right hand.

"What do I do next? Should I just snap my fingers? Or, make a wish first? Say a few lines, such as -- I am Superman?"

The superheroes looked at each other and didn't know how to answer.

This addressed a blind spot in their knowledge.

"We have never worn an Infinity Gauntlet before."

Rocket poked his head out from behind Thor's shoulder and spat out quietly.

In fact, he hadn't even touched the other five stones, except for the Power Stone placed in the orb.

The other superheroes were similar, and they didn't know much about the Infinity Stones.

"Dr. Banner, do you have any good suggestions?"

Captain America looked at Banner, who had studied gamma rays. He was an expert in this field.

"I don't even understand why it had to be a snap that could activate the Infinity Gauntlet's mechanism!"

Banner shook his head and replied helplessly.

As a scientist, he simply couldn't understand the strange setting that one snap could erase half of life in the universe.

If Thanos was a disabled man who had lost his hands, would that mean that even if the opponent was given the Infinity Stones, he might not be able to use them?

In this way, wasn't the existence of the Infinity Gauntlet and Infinity Stones equivalent to discriminating against disabled people with unsound hands!

Such cruelty!

"How about I try each method once?"

Luke joked.

"Ah... let's be more cautious."

Iron Man quickly stopped Superman's behavior. This was related to half of the life of the earth and the whole universe.

Luke smiled faintly. He was just easing the atmosphere, and he didn't intend actually to do that.

A moment later, Superman closed his eyes.

With the wonderful power given by the six Infinity Stones, his extremely powerful perception was instantly magnified countless times.

Zi zi! Zi zi zi!

Light streams were surging, and energy pulsating!

On that glove, the various stones vibrated.

The first thing that lit up was the blue Space Stone.

Then, it was the Time Stone shining with green light.

Then, the purple Power Stone, the red Reality Stone, and the yellow Mind Stone lit up, one by one.

Finally, it is the orange Soul Stone.

Boom!

A silent bang!

Luke seemed to be connected with the whole universe.

The vast and endless river of bright stars rotated quietly beneath his feet.

Everything was so small and fragile!

'This is the Infinity Stones...'

In an instant, Luke felt that his body was infinitely higher.

Like the gods of the universe, overlooking the vast universe without boundaries.

He seemed to touch the edge of this box, silently peeking at other floating clusters of light, like air bubbles.

That's a large number of multiverses that are difficult to count!

'Earth-1024 ...'

Luke pondered the number he set for his universe. His sight extended infinitely, almost penetrating the box and reaching the outer realm.

'Too many! It's too hard to find!'

It was like finding a water drop belonging to Luke from the vast ocean, which was time-consuming and troublesome.

He felt the increasingly terrifying cosmic energy in his body, so he had no choice but to give up.

'It's time to get down to business. '

Luke slowly raised his right hand. The six-colored light erupted violently.

The infinite glove made of nanomaterials was almost on the verge of collapse. Clear cracks appeared and bloomed.

The terrifying energy of the universe was condensed and unleashed at this moment!

Snap!

With a snap.

The superheroes' perception seemed to blur for a moment and then was quickly brought back to reality.

"A success?"

Hawkeye, who recently returned to the team, asked in a trembling voice.

Compared with the tragic experience of Ant-Man, he was even worse.

He originally retired, enjoying warm and happy family life. At the same time, he was teaching his daughter archery. When he turned his head, his whole family had been turned into dust.

He was dumbfounded!

When Hawkeye came to his senses and came to S.H.I.E.L.D's base, Superman had destroyed Thanos and brought back the Infinity Stones.

After hearing that there was still a chance to undo all this, his mood was like a roller coaster ride, up and down, and finally up again.

Buzz! Buzz!

The cell phone that Scott, the second-generation Ant-Man, had placed on the table, vibrated.

"Friday, remove the defense procedures!"

Seeing Luke had finished snapping his finger, and there was no shocking explosion or terrible scenes, Iron Man lifted the maximum alert status of the base.

The thick alloy doors slowly pulled up, and a beam of sunlight shone in, scattering it into a dazzling golden glow.

Vaguely, they could still hear insects and birds chirping.
