A heat ray struck a meteor, instantly vaporizing it.
"Perhaps, we should go back..." Quill watched the heat ray narrowly miss the top of their ship.
He had seen it melt a massive asteroid the moment it made contact.
Quill couldn't help but swallow, his mouth suddenly feeling dry.
The Guardians of the Galaxy's ship had stopped at the very edge of the combat zone.
The multicolored energy cannons they had just witnessed had already made them consider retreating.
And now, this beam of destructive energy had shattered the last line of defense in their hearts.
Just as Lin Feng had said, they were mere cannon fodder in this battle for treasures!
At this moment, Quill was immensely grateful he hadn't ventured closer to the combat area.
A single blast of that beam would have ended Star-Lord's interstellar journey.
Rocket nodded blankly, for the first time not refuting Quill's opinion.
"Yes, go back, it's good to go back!"
Rocket instinctively pressed the return button.
From now on, it was best to stay away from Lin Feng.
Rocket had a faint impression of that beam.
Looking at how it hit the meteor, wasn't it somewhat similar to how it struck Ronan back then...
"Wait, Rocket!"
It was Gamora who shouted again!
Damn it, the return button would send them back to the starting point of the jump!
How could Rocket forget that?
"Return confirmed, initiating jump sequence."
The screen displayed over 1800 jump counts again.
*Bang!*
Quill's hand was a step too slow. The ship instantly began its jump.
"I... damn... you..."
Quill's cry of anguish rang out, disappearing with the ship from the Xandar system.
And Yondu... experienced another 1800 super jumps.
The automatic following pilot hadn't been turned off...
Hela, riding her white wolf, watched the two ships, one large and one small, jump away with a familiar feeling.
Never mind, now was not the time to dwell on that.
Having fought alongside Odin for so many years, she knew that one needed not only martial prowess but also wisdom.
Hela had wisely positioned herself far away before the battle began.
She had no intention of engaging in a one-on-one duel.
As long as she could obtain the Cosmic Cube, she would have no qualms about backstabbing anyone.
She soothed the agitated white wolf beneath her.
The little creature sensed a deadly threat.
If Hela hadn't been holding on to it, it might have already fled with its tail between its legs.
"Little one, just a little longer, the outcome should be decided soon."
...
Meanwhile, Lin Feng had cleared the combat zone after several spiraling heat rays.
Over a hundred different factions were reduced to a mere handful under the terrifying harvest of the heat rays!
The few remaining factions hadn't survived due to their own strength.
They had only managed to escape because, by sheer luck, Lin Feng's rotation hadn't swept over them.
The sounds of gunfire abruptly fell silent.
No one dared to make a move.
Lin Feng's ability to clear the area in seconds was too terrifying.
These villains had wreaked havoc in the universe for years.
Honestly, this was the first time they had witnessed such a mind-shattering level of power.
And for a qualified villain, situational awareness was crucial.
They instantly understood that the human before them was beyond their ability to handle.
Ten thousand energy cannons couldn't even damage a single strand of his hair, yet with a glare, he vaporized a hundred ships.
It was impossible to win. At this point, why even think about treasures? They should focus on escaping!
No one knew who it was, but someone quietly began to retreat.
Then, everyone else reacted.
The few remaining factions silently withdrew a considerable distance, simultaneously initiated their jumps, and vanished with a series of bangs.
Damn, it was too terrifying!
Lin Feng's face was now seared into their minds.
Their only thought was to flee the moment they encountered Lin Feng in the future...
It was almost comical how the star system, which had been engaged in a fierce battle moments before, was now eerily silent.
There was no choice.
Since Lin Feng had decided to act, he intended to cripple them with a single blow.
Otherwise, the continuous energy cannon fire, though not high in damage, was like a blinding fireworks display right in front of his eyes.
Xixing watched in stunned silence at the result of Lin Feng's actions.
She had imagined Lin Feng to be powerful, capable of moving freely amidst thousands of cannonballs.
But her imagination had been too limited. He not only moved freely but had also crippled almost everyone with a single strike.
The black cat, without making a sound, lay beneath Lin Feng, its eyes filled with terror.
Lin Feng's hand still held its scruff.
Its truck-sized body trembled uncontrollably from fear, lest Lin Feng, on a whim, also unleash his eye-beam on it.
Lin Feng ignored the black cat. Under his bio-force field, escape was an impossible fantasy.
His gaze fell upon the three members of the Celestial class.
Lin Feng had focused his heat rays on them, sweeping over them twice.
However, only one of them was destroyed.
It wasn't that Lin Feng's heat rays lacked power.
It was that just before the heat rays arrived, the earth-colored armored Celestial member automatically stepped in front of the other two.
The three of them concentrated their energy onto the earth-yellow Celestial member in an attempt to block the heat rays.
The powerful Celestial class indeed succeeded.
But the cost was that the earth-yellow Celestial member was reduced to fragments.
As they met Lin Feng's gaze, the remaining two Celestial members shivered. One of them instinctively took a step back.
They hadn't expected Lin Feng to unleash such a powerful attack.
It was completely beyond their comprehension.
Heh, scared now? Too late!
Lin Feng's eyes once again blazed with a fiery light.
A destructive aura, even more potent than the previous heat rays, enveloped the two Celestial members.
Lin Feng's heat rays were adjustable.
If he unleashed their full power, he could melt a universe in an instant.
The black cat, being like a pet, could be spared.
But the Celestial class, like large metal cylinders, had dared to attack him, so their lives would be forfeit.
The Celestial members finally abandoned the idea of snatching the Cosmic Cube and immediately attempted to teleport away, but it was too late.
Before one foot could even enter the teleportation space, the attack arrived.
Without a doubt, a more powerful heat ray instantly vaporized the two Celestial members.
To Lin Feng, they were still too weak.
Now, the only ones who could truly pique Lin Feng's interest and make him go all out would likely be the powerful figures from the comic book version.
