“Emergency alert, emergency alert! Several criminals are attempting to escape. Prison guards, proceed immediately to Block B to stop them by any means necessary!”

“Emergency alert, the central control system of the prison has been breached. Prison guards, proceed immediately to Sector A in the central area for reinforcements…”

Chaos reigned throughout the Kyln prison as guards, guided by smart alerts, rushed around like ants in a boiling pot, unable to discern the movements and whereabouts of the enemy.

In desperation, the guards called for reinforcements from the Nova Corps. “This is the Kyln Advanced Maximum Security Prison. We urgently need reinforcements from the Nova Corps! Please respond as soon as you hear this!”

At this moment, an orange-and-blue Interstellar fighter jet, shimmering with a silvery sheen, ignited its engines in the prison’s parking area and sped away from Kyln prison, fleeing along the outer asteroid belt at breakneck speed.

Tony removed his Iron Man mask and looked at Quill and the others seated nearby and asked with a puzzled look on his face. “Godfather, why are there so many people with you? Didn’t you go there to find Star-Lord?”

“It’s a long story,” Kyle said softly. The radiant glow on his left arm suddenly dimmed. When he opened his palm again, the purple gem that had been in his hand had completely disappeared.

At the same time…

An Item Card entered the Card Space and quickly ascended, emitting dazzling crystal light.

[Power Stone]: An Infinity Stone that embodies the essence of power. A rare colorless Item Card.

This gem possesses endless power, infinitely enhancing the user’s physique and strength. It instantly replicates all physical properties, granting the user near-invulnerable physical attack and defense capabilities!

It can absorb and release the energy attacks of enemies, unleashing massive purple energy shockwaves that can completely destroy any spacecraft and even pulverize small asteroids!

Warning: The user needs immense strength to control and harness it, or else they will face destruction, lost in the overwhelming power.

Current status: Summonable as a physical entity.

Power Stone…

This was the second Infinity Stone Kyle had obtained after encountering the Space Stone. In terms of practicality and power, this gem, to some extent, absolutely surpassed the Space Stone.

Of course, it also required much higher physical requirements from the user.

Despite possessing the genes of an Asgardian and fusion energy, Kyle wasn’t arrogant enough to attempt to control the Power Stone solely through his body.

After all, even someone like Thanos only embarked on a frenzy to plunder the Infinity Stones from across the universe only after creating the Infinite Gauntlet that was used specifically to control the stones.

“Perhaps I should create an equipment item similar to the Infinite Gauntlet, capable of harnessing the powers of Infinity Stones,” Kyle thought to himself before quickly dismissing the idea and returning to the present reality. He briefly explained the origins and uses of the Infinity Stones to the others.

“With the Infinite Gauntlet, once all six stones are collected, with a snap of his fingers, over half the life in the universe will turn to ashes…”

When Kyle said this, everyone except Gemora visibly paled.

“Destroying over half of life, that’s insane. Surely no one would do such a thing?” Quill tried to reassure them with a forced casual tone.

“Yeah,” Rocket nodded in agreement.

“No, you’re wrong.”

Gemora’s face was extremely grim as she spoke bitterly. “My father, Thanos, that’s exactly what he’s after. Ten years ago, I knew he was searching for the dwarves, trying to create the Infinite Gauntlet and build his power, scouring the universe for the whereabouts of the Infinity Stones.”

“This… is too insane.” The group fell silent, digesting this shocking revelation.

As if to remind them, Gemora continued, “Since the Power Stone is in The Orb, Thanos won’t spare anyone associated with it. And Ronan is obsessed with the legend and power of the stones.”

“Ronan, huh! If he comes looking for me, I’ll be ready!” Drax, lying on the chair, clenched his fists tightly, speaking coldly.

“Since we’ve come this far, let’s just take the other gem as well. Let’s see how Thanos manages to gather six gems. After all, we have Mr. Kyle here, the ultimate powerhouse.”

Quill patted Kyle’s shoulder familiarly, almost pulling out a notebook to ask for an autograph.

“I won’t dare say I can surpass Thanos, but as for Ronan, I haven’t even considered him as an opponent,” Kyle’s calm words somehow instilled a sense of security in everyone.

“Hey, hey, mister, you’ve been staring at me since I got here,” Quill suddenly exclaimed, pointing at Tony, who was still wearing the Iron Man suit.

The others looked at Tony. Indeed, Tony had been staring intently at Quill, his gaze unwavering, filled with urgency and anticipation.

“To be honest, although I’ve slept with many species of women, I’m not into guys,” Quill shrugged, sheepishly scratching the back of his neck.

“You must be Star-Lord, right? I only like beautiful human women, jerk!” Tony retorted, unapologetic.

Kyle chuckled and spoke frankly, “Quill, let me be honest with you. We came to the Kyln prison specifically for you.”

“For me? Why?” Quill asked, bewildered.

Tony stepped forward, raising his left Iron Man arm, which projected a beam of light, displaying Howard’s photo and file in a holographic projection. “I’m looking for him. The intermediary said that a few years ago, you saw him on a certain planet.”

“Howard Stark?” Quill stared at the projection, stroking his chin in thought. Then, as if recalling something, he said, “I remember. Yeah, in the slums of Nanc Star, there was a human old man named Howard. He was famous locally as a repair master, and I repaired some tech equipment there.”

“That’s him!”

Tony and Kyle exchanged excited glances.

“Have you seen these two?” Kyle gestured to Tony, who immediately displayed Lucy and Logan’s photos and files. After examining them for a while, Quill shook his head. “No, I haven’t seen them. If I had seen such beautiful human women, I definitely wouldn’t forget.”

Kyle furrowed his brow. This meant that Howard and Lucy had either separated or something unexpected had happened to them.

Hopefully, they’re alright, otherwise…

Kyle’s eyes sharpened, emanating a chilling aura, causing Quill and the others to involuntarily step back.

“Godfather, they must be okay,” Tony reassured, placing a hand on Kyle’s shoulder.

“Let’s hope so.”

Kyle composed himself and turned to Quill. “Now, take us to Nanc Star to find Howard…”

Before he could finish his sentence, the aircraft suddenly shook violently, and J.A.R.V.I.S issued a warning, “There are Nova Corps fighters chasing us from behind.”

“Then let’s rendezvous with the Hawk fighter where Lorna is,” Kyle decisively ordered.

J.A.R.V.I.S spoke again, “Vis just contacted me. They’re under heavy attack by unidentified spacecraft ahead, preliminarily identified as Ronan’s forces.”

The faces of everyone turned pale at the news. It seemed like they were caught between a rock and a hard place.
