Chapter 88
"Stop! You have severely violated the laws of Xandar, and you are under arrest!"
On the flying vehicles, a large number of weapons began to charge, but more of them were aimed directly at Lockdown. Sweat beaded on every pilot's face, their expressions tense.
This big guy's combat power was too strong; it looked like he could just leap and blow them all apart.
They also knew what Lockdown's presence here meant: a terrifying shadow that loomed over them, almost suffocating them.
"Hmph, boring..."
Lockdown quickly scanned his surroundings. After a comprehensive analysis, he confirmed that if he resisted, he would be blasted to smithereens on the spot, so he immediately let out a cold snort.
Quill raised his hands, shouting, "Wait, this is a misunderstanding!!"
Lockdown had retracted the Blaster Cannon from his face and looked indifferently at the Xandar forces.
He was captured, under Quill's dumbfounded gaze, actually getting captured so docilely!
"How can you be so cooperative? Then why wouldn't you listen to me?!" Quill was also restrained, somewhat distraught.
Lockdown gave Quill an arrogant look, as if he were looking at an idiot. "I am a bounty hunter. All my actions are for money and missions, not to be a front-line warrior! What's inside your head?"

Chapter 113
Xandar's high-ranking officials gathered, their faces filled with worry.
"It can be confirmed now. The one who calls himself Lockdown is from Cybertron, and he is a subordinate of that individual."
"My suggestion is to release him. If we imprison him, we will face the wrath of Cybertron, which will ignite a new interstellar war – a war we are absolutely destined to lose!"
"Release him? Are you mad? That guy openly fired, causing global panic. Such an act alone is enough to sentence him to life imprisonment! If we just let him go, Xandar's prestige and reputation will be completely lost!"
"Hehehe, losing a bit of face is better than being annihilated. If I were you, I would never drag all of Xandar into a losing war for a mere shred of dignity. Just Ronan alone has already exhausted us. If you add Cybertron to the mix, even if that individual doesn't make a move, we would still be no match."
Someone said with a fake smile.
The entire conference room erupted into an uproar. Many high-ranking officials had ashen faces, unable to settle their dispute.
Boom!
A loud bang.
Immediately followed by piercing alarm bells.
"What happened?" someone asked gravely.
"Someone's breaking into the prison!"
A soldier rushed in, drenched in sweat.
The high-ranking officials exchanged glances, but strangely, no one spoke. As they looked at each other, they could all sense a glint in each other's eyes.
Hehehe, a prison break? How could such a thing happen? It must be fake, definitely fake. It wouldn't be too late to figure out how to pursue them after they've escaped.
"Their target is The Orb, but The Orb is still in our hands..."
A general suddenly spoke, pointing at the silver sphere in the center of the table.
Some people frowned, their faces showing confusion: "What exactly is this The Orb, that it's worth Overlords like Martin and Thanos sending their subordinates to snatch it?"
A few who vaguely knew some inside information looked at The Orb, their faces revealing complex expressions: longing, greed, and even fear.
Infinity Stones, the treasures of the entire Universe. As long as there's a chance, no one would give up such a treasure.
Boom, boom, boom!
Repeated deafening roars rang out, accompanied by towering flames. Clearly, the escaped prisoners were going a bit too far.
A group of several people emerged from the prison, making their escape.
"I'm going to find The Orb."
A Blaster Cannon extended from Lockdown's head, and he began a furious bombardment, clearing a path with this violent method, every object within his sight subjected to his fiery purge.
"Still looking for The Orb?! What in the world is that thing that so many of you are willing to risk your lives for?!"
Rocket Raccoon, perched on Groot's back, shrieked in alarm: "I rescued you to make money, to demand my hiring fee!! Not to watch you die!"
"I am Groot." Groot nodded repeatedly.
Lockdown acted as if he hadn't heard, slaying his way out. The scene was bloody. He stepped onto a Spaceship, dragged the soldiers inside out, and killed them.
Quill and the others could only steel themselves and rush in.
Gamora swiftly sat down in a seat, her voice low: "The power within The Orb cannot fall into the hands of Destroyers like Thanos or Martin. That would be a catastrophe for the entire Universe."
Quill sneered: "You've gone mad, female assassin, to compare the likes of Thanos with my master."
"Hahahahaha." Drax laughed, clutching his stomach, looking exactly like a fool.
Gamora fell silent for a moment, then said coldly: "I'm not sure what Martin truly wants, but I have a faint feeling his ambition is even greater than Thanos's!"
"Of course it's greater. Do the likes of Thanos even deserve to be compared with my Creator?"
Lockdown piloted the Spaceship, flying at an exaggerated speed, directly towards the capital city of Xandar. Amidst everyone's screams, with a tremendous crash, he directly slammed into it.
Boom!
Lockdown stepped out of the Spaceship's door and was immediately met with heavy gunfire from numerous soldiers. The frequent attacks striking Lockdown were already subtly putting immense pressure on his Chassis, and his internal Energy reserves were being depleted at an alarming rate.
"Boring."
Lockdown blasted out a single shot, blowing all these guys away, and burst into Xandar's core conference hall like a God of War.
"Hand over The Orb to me, or death awaits you! You must understand that offending The Creator will bring you permanent annihilation!"
Lockdown's voice was indifferent as he slew his way in, repeatedly blasting. Numerous soldiers died gruesome deaths on the spot, unable to halt the fearsome hunter for even half a step.
His massive figure enveloped all of Xandar's high-ranking officials. Lockdown looked down, his killing intent permeating the air.
"Take The Orb and get out of here, get off Xandar!"
The leader of the Nova Corps directly picked up The Orb from the table and, in his disheveled state, threw it to Lockdown.
If not, everyone would die here! If a mere Lockdown was this difficult to deal with, could Xandar possibly withstand the arrival of Cybertron's entire Endless Legion?
"Excellent. At least there's one person who isn't completely foolish."
The Blaster Cannon on Lockdown's face retracted, and he reached out to grab The Orb.
Gamora immediately rushed forward, intending to intercept, but Lockdown merely flung her away with a sweep of his arm, sending her crashing and embedding her into the wall with a 'boom'.
The Orb successfully landed in Lockdown's hand.
Lockdown lowered his head and gazed at it for a moment, then directly twisted The Orb open, revealing the Power Stone within. This dazzling power was mesmerizing, making one feel as if they might drown in it.
Good, very good.
This was the Power Stone. As long as this gem was handed over to The Creator, The Creator would possess four Infinity Stones, and no one in the entire Universe would be the Master's opponent.
Lockdown was extremely satisfied.
But just then.
Numerous interstellar fleets suddenly appeared in space, then frantically swarmed towards Xandar.
"Ronan! It's Accuser Ronan! That Demon actually came!"
The Kree fleet led by Ronan immediately began a furious barrage of fire. Ronan himself directly descended into the capital city, wielding a long-handled War Hammer. With every swing, numerous soldiers were torn to shreds.
"I feel the power of the Infinity Stone. That must be mine."
Flames of desire burned in Ronan's eyes as he stepped forward, heading directly for the location of the Power Stone.
"Ronan!!"
Drax's eyes turned red, and he roared as he charged at Ronan. But Ronan didn't even spare him a glance, kicking Drax away before lunging directly at Lockdown!
"Robot, give me what's in your hand! I can spare your life!"
Powerful energy erupted from Ronan's body. He stared menacingly at Lockdown's claw.

Chapter 114
Staring at the Power Stone, Ronan's eyes turned crimson.
This was... the taste of power, and it was within reach!
Why was he wanted by the Kree Empire? Why did he serve Thanos like a dog? Ultimately, it was because he lacked power great enough to ignore everything!
"Is this an Infinity Stone? With this, even Thanos will kneel before me!"
Ronan strode forward with imposing steps, charging ahead and swinging the heavy War Hammer in his hand.
"You seek death!"
Lockdown closed The Orb, extended the Blaster Cannon from his face, and fired another shot.
Boom!
Ronan directly struck the cannon blast with a fierce blow from his War Hammer, sending it flying and causing numerous Xandar soldiers nearby to be caught in the explosion, screaming repeatedly.
"Robot, I, Ronan, sentence you to death!"
Ronan's face was twisted with a fanaticism as he raised his War Hammer high and smashed it violently towards Lockdown.
Bang!
This powerful strike instantly deeply caved into Lockdown's chest.
Lockdown's formidable Chassis now bore a terrible indentation in its chest from Ronan's full-force strike, and Lockdown himself was sent flying backward.
"Be careful! That hammer of his is the Kree Empire's strongest single-person Divine Artifact! Don't get hit by it!" Gamora cried out, drawing her sword.
"Thanks for the timely reminder."
Lockdown cursed under his breath, his voice low, and rose somewhat unsteadily from the rubble. He then began to sprint rapidly, charging like a mountain from the side towards Ronan.
Bang!
Ronan abruptly raised an arm, holding his War Hammer, and directly blocked the fearsome might of Lockdown head-on. In an instant, massive dust billowed, and an incredibly terrifying roar erupted as the two crashed together. A visible, dreadful shockwave suddenly burst forth, tearing through large sections of debris and rubble, creating an astonishing spectacle.
Lockdown's full-force collision, with its inertia combined with instantaneous explosive power, a force of millions of tons, was astonishingly... blocked head-on by Ronan!
"Foolish Robot, don't you know that as long as I have this 'Universal Weapon' in hand, I can never be harmed by the likes of you? Have you truly never heard of the terror of the Kree Empire's ultimate creation?"
Ronan revealed a cruel smile, seizing one of Lockdown's arms. Immediately, streams of light surged from the War Hammer, bestowing immense power upon Ronan. He continuously applied force, prying open Lockdown's arm, ready to take The Orb.
His long-handled War Hammer, named "Universal Weapon," was the Kree Empire's pinnacle of technological creation!
It could manipulate cosmic Energy, achieve matter decomposition, matter recombination, and object transformation according to Ronan's Willpower, absorb Energy to fire shockwaves, control gravity to create force fields, create a "Temporal Displacement Field," and perform "Hyperspace Teleportation"!
This War Hammer alone possessed the triple power characteristics of time, space, and Energy, truly a Divine Artifact!
