2130 Pick and Roll, the Lethal Weapon That Was Almost Split Into Four Parts

Ebony Maw wasn't doing well either.

He was truly loyal to Thanos.

Compared with Cull Oblivion, who had more animal instincts than intelligence, and Corvus Glaive, who had excellent command skills but was more independent, he was the one who protected Thanos's interests the most.

Thus, after Thanos's fleet was attacked, not only did he return immediately, he even summoned back the remaining three superpowered aliens.

Otherwise, the alien team would only be thinking of ways to remain in battle to prove that they weren't escaping the fighting; they wouldn't get on Thanos's warship.

Thanos wasn't a reasonable leader. The three of them were actually afraid that they would be treated as deserters and killed.

There had been many such individuals before, all of whom were made an example of as a warning to Thanos's subordinates.

Only the four generals had the chance to speak.

Only when the other soldiers proved their courage and were valuable enough could they avoid being killed.

What a pity, it wasn't Thanos who killed them, but Big Dipper.

It took Big Dipper less than 0.01 seconds to sweep clean with his blade this bit of effort from Ebony Maw.

Ebony Maw sensed danger.

No matter how spacious this hall was, it couldn't compare with the unobstructed sky.

In a situation where Thanos was under siege, Ebony Maw knew that he himself couldn't die.

Once he died, these four powerful individuals would no longer have any qualms about attacking Thanos.

What gave him a bigger headache was the Earthling pleb behind him.

Although this annoying guy wasn't very strong, he was good at shooting.

Luke's special energy pistol was powerful and had an extraordinary capacity. Ebony Maw was forced to dodge one energy bullet after another.

It was impossible to block them head-on. Ebony Maw's telekinesis and the protective layer on his outfit could withstand a few dozen shots, but definitely not hundreds.

Using telekinesis to resist such high-energy particles, in particular, consumed too much mental strength. The mental strength to block one shot would have been enough for Ebony Maw to move at high speed for a few minutes.

High output bursts also had a huge impact on his mental strength.

What was even more annoying was that the suits which this bunch of people were wearing could interfere with the energy field and effectively prevent telekinesis from affecting them.

Ebony Maw couldn't directly send Luke and the others flying, and could only throw around debris to indirectly stop them.

It wasn't until he pressed the alarm and heard the report that several combat units were on their way that he finally relaxed.

Once these troops arrived, he would have even more things to control, and could even directly control the soldiers to open fire.

At that time, he would use firepower to suppress the enemy.

Ebony Maw swore that after taking care of the others, he would definitely have the soldiers fire at the mouthy Earthling behind him for at least ten minutes.

A psycho with such a foul mouth should be turned to dust and thrown into the ocean of stars so that he couldn't harass anyone with dirty words for the rest of his life.

At that moment, Wade, who was in hot pursuit, suddenly put on a burst of speed and darted away at an angle toward Thanos's back.

Ebony Maw's expression changed. He raised his hand and threw some debris at Wade from the side.

Suddenly, something moved out of the corner of his eye.

Ebony Maw's heart jumped. It was an ambush!

When he looked, he couldn't see anyone, but he could sense a transparent and twisted shadow tearing through the air.

Ebony Maw waved his hands, and a storm of remains shot out in front of him to block the transparent shadow. At the same time, he used his telekinesis to lift himself up and retreat.

He had barely done this, when he was stunned.

A pile of debris suddenly opened up in the middle. As soon as he started to retreat, he felt nothing under his feet, and the telekinesis he was using on himself practically disappeared.

This was also someone with telekinesis! The subconscious thought flashed through Ebony's mind.

During this very brief daze, which lasted less time than it took to blink, he lost his chance to escape.

The transparent shadow lunged forward and grabbed his neck.

Crack! Puchi!

There was the sound of breaking bones and tearing flesh as Brother Squidward's head was crushed by Knight.

There was still surprise and vigilance in his eyes, and all he could see was the black figure that had reappeared.

It's you, Dark Knight. The nickname that Ebony Maw had once mocked flashed through his mind before his consciousness gradually faded.

In the last moment before his death, he didn't see his leader, whom he had followed for years, but a strong enemy.

I lost! Ebony Maw murmured inwardly as he fell into eternal darkness.

…

On the other side, Thanos sensed Ebony Maw's death, but he didn't have time to be sad about it.

Knight and Wade suddenly switched positions and executed a clean 'pick and roll' strategy.

Ebony Maw had been taken down by Knight, who was also familiar with telekinesis. He neutralized the telekinesis, and Ebony Maw was killed without any resistance.

Thanos, on the other hand, looked suspiciously at the lunatic who lunged at him through the air.

Then, he felt that it was better to play it safe.

So, he raised his right hand, and a purple light beam hit Wade.

Boom!

The purple light beam hit Wade's head, and then… Wade's head cut through it as he continued flying at Thanos.

Sensing that something was wrong, Thanos swung the double-headed blade at Wade.

Wade cursed and instantly drew out the two blades on his back to cover his head.

Clash!

The two special swords in his hands, which were a blend of the Muto shell and vibranium, withstood the test and weren't broken by Thanos's giant blade.

So, they were pushed back by Thanos's blade and hacked into Wade's shoulder.

If Wade hadn't turned his head at the last moment thanks to his combat sense, his head would've been split into at least four parts.

However, his condition wasn't any better at that moment.

Thanos's fierce slash broke through the armor and almost cut off his right shoulder.

Wade was knocked to his knees by the enormous force from the blade, and it was hard for him to exert any strength.

What was even more terrifying was that Thanos raised his elephant-like foot and was about to stomp on Wade's face.

Big Dipper flashed over and slashed at Thanos's neck and left arm.

Either cut his head off or break his arm! This was Luke's strategy.

If he lost an arm, his combat ability would drop by at least 70%; naturally, nothing needed to be said if his head was cut off.

Whether it was the Infinity Stones with various abilities or Thanos's best double-headed blade, they were all the reasons why he had been able to resist for so long.

After his arm was broken, his head could easily be cut off.

Thanos had no choice but to pull the giant blade out of Wade's shoulder and block Big Dipper's attack.

Behind him, Selina's eyes flickered. Here was her chance.

Her arms suddenly stretched out ten meters to lock under Thanos's armpits.

Then she pulled herself forward toward Thanos.

An enraged expression appeared on Thanos's face. A purple light flashed on his right hand as he punched at Selina's arm that was wrapped around his left shoulder.
