Chapter 214: Ego's Treasure House
"Everyone, please follow me." Under Ego's command, Mantis timidly gestured to everyone to follow her.
Seeing this, Levi also waved his hand with satisfaction, motioning everyone to follow.
"Don't mind such trivial matters, kid, you will soon have a new perspective on life!" Ego said to Star-Lord, who was still unhappy with Levi and his group.
"Oh, yes, I'm looking forward to it!" Star-Lord replied, but he was quite unhappy in his heart.
...
"Are you the only two people on this planet?" Carol, who had been silent on the road, suddenly asked Mantis.
"Yes, this planet is Ego itself. Just like dogs don't invite fleas to live on their backs, Ego doesn't allow other people, or even any life, to live on him, so there has always been no one or even life on this planet except me." Mantis answered in detail, without hiding Ego's identity.
But this metaphor is really...
Carol didn't even know what expression to use to face this silly little guy.
So he could only look at Levi.
"I know what you want to do. Go now. The sooner you go, the sooner you come back." Levi spread his hands.
Carol nodded, and with a flash, he disappeared instantly.
"Where did your friend go?" Seeing this, Mantis was frightened and said, "Don't wander around on the planet. If you are found, Ego will be angry."
"Don't worry, she just went to take a look and will be back soon. By the way, Mantis, is the place you are taking us to now Ego's treasure house?" Levi asked with a smile.
"Yes." Mantis nodded and answered, not knowing why Levi asked.
After getting the answer he wanted, Levi looked at Tony and smiled.
"What do you want to do?" Mantis had a bad premonition, and shook his little hand, trying to touch Levi.
But before he touched Levi, he was blocked by a magic light shield.
"Look, Mantis, I know your ability. If I find out that you have touched me or my team members without permission, something unfortunate will happen. Believe me!" Levi warned with a smile on his face.
Although he intends to recruit Mantis into the alliance.
But at least for now, their camps are still "hostile".
In the original plot, Mantis was influenced by Drax, a pure fool.
But there is no such fool in their team - well, maybe there is, but not necessarily. Levi looked at Jessica calmly, who was laughing with him and Tony for some reason.
But in any case, before Ego is officially solved, Mantis is an uncertain existence.
It's better to be careful.
After all, her ability is also quite amazing to some extent.
"Okay..." Facing Levi's threat, Mantis put away her hand like a bullied little wife, and continued to move forward cautiously.
"There should be a lot of treasures in Ego's treasury, right? After all, I heard that he has lived for millions of years, so he must have collected some good things." Levi continued to ask.
"Yes, the wealth inside is very huge, but Ego is not very interested in those things, so he basically threw them in casually after bringing them back, so we haven't made a specific statistics." Mantis tilted his head and said.
Hearing her words, Levi, Tony, and Yelena, who knew what they wanted to do, almost wanted to whistle excitedly.
They couldn't imagine how much wealth had accumulated over millions of years.
Thinking of this, Levi couldn't help but think of the Guardians of the Galaxy who entered the treasure mountain in the original time and space.
Well, let him make up for this regret.
"Wait here for a while, I'll go get you the money." Coming to a side hall outside Ego's treasury, Mantis asked everyone to rest here and said that he would go back to get the money.
Although she was alone.
But 10 million New Zealand dollars can be a lot, or it can be a little.
Just like when the Collector was about to pay Star-Lord and his friends in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 1, the huge reward of 4 billion was just to take some small metal ingots from the drawer.
Those small metal ingots are the largest denomination currency in New Zealand.
One is 100 million - and the Collector's drawer is almost full.
This is interstellar trading, the denomination can be small or large.
"I don't think it's so troublesome, why don't we take it ourselves!" Levi smiled slightly maliciously when he heard it.
At this time, even if Mantis was slow and ignorant of the ways of the world, she understood what Levi and his friends wanted to do.
"No, then you can't do this, Ego will be angry, you don't want to face the anger of a god!" Mantis said timidly, but the fear she showed was not directed at Levi and his friends, but at Ego.
If Ego got angry, she didn't know how much energy she would have to spend to appease him.
She was kept by Ego until now because of her ability to appease emotions.
But if you want to appease the emotions of a planet, you can imagine how big a project it is.
"God? Ego is not worthy of it. He is just a thing that is suspected to be the remnant of the brain tissue of a god." Hearing Mantis call Ego a god, Levi disagreed.
If Ego is a god, then what are gods like Tiamat and Arisom?
Compared to them, Ego is nothing.
And according to Ego's initial form in the movie, and in connection with the void, which is actually suspected to be the head of a god.
Levi has reason to believe that Ego is likely to be something like the brain tissue of a dead god, which has been revitalized and born with consciousness.
"If Ego knew you said that about him, he would go crazy!" Hearing Levi blaspheming Ego's origin, even the always calm Mantis couldn't help swallowing his saliva.
"Okay, little mantis (Mantis is mantis in English), now is not the time, take us to the treasure house, we have to move as much as possible before that brain monster reacts!" Tony said impatiently at this time.
Tony has been a rich man since he was a child, and this is the first time he feels his desire for wealth.
Suddenly I feel that this feeling is not bad.
"Okay, come with me, but I don't think you can take too much away." Mantis said. After all, there are indeed a lot of things in the Ego treasury.
But when she led Levi and his party into the treasury and saw Levi and his party taking out space bags one by one, and the space bags were filled with space bags, she suddenly realized that she was still a little hasty.
These people came fully prepared.
