After hearing Yondu's words, Peter and the others first thought it was impossible. They simply did not believe that a man like Thanos would have soone he truly loved. However, as Yondu explained his observations in greater detail, their faces gradually beca solemn and grave. Although they still did not think this possibility was very high, if this assessnt was true, then there was no doubt what would be the fate of Gamora. The implications were deeply disturbing.
"I am Groot!"
After hearing Groot's words, Rocket imdiately translated for Sebastian with a puzzled expression. "Groot said, if Thanos really loves Gamora, then why would he sacrifice Gamora?
I have to say, I think Groot's question makes sense. If Thanos really loves Gamora, then in my opinion, he should not be willing to sacrifice Gamora at all. If he really wants to sacrifice Gamora, it ans that he does not really love Gamora. This seems to be a rather conflicting conclusion that does not make any sense."
Sebastian actually had so thoughts on Rocket's words. However, generally speaking, it is true that Thanos loves Gamora. But in the face of Thanos's ambition and his twisted sense of purpose, everything can be given up and sacrificed without hesitation. Thanos can even be understood as a person who sacrifices himself to save what he believes is the normal operation and reproduction of the universe. Sebastian, who knows the original history and has glimpsed possible futures through his magic, knows very well what Thanos has paid for what he believes is the normal operation of the universe.
It was not just his beloved daughter, Gamora, that he would sacrifice. It was also his own forces, his own strength, his own health, and even his own life. Thanos was a man of true purpose and unwavering conviction. Unfortunately, his actions were in irreconcilable conflict with those of the vast majority of the universe. Therefore, he was not a hero in any aningful sense. He was rely a destroyer who believed himself to be a savior.
"Rocket, Thanos, in a sense, is a man who truly sacrifices his own ego for the sake of what he perceives as the greater good of the universe. He is willing to sacrifice himself, everything he has, for what he believes is the healthy developnt of the universe. He truly loves Gamora in his own twisted way. However, when faced with what he considers to be a matter of righteousness and cosmic necessity, he is willing to sacrifice her life, even if it causes him unbearable heartache and grief."
Sebastian's words silenced everyone present. The weight of this terrible truth hung heavily in the air.
After a long pause, Peter looked at Sebastian and said with desperation creeping into his voice, "Sebastian, can your magic instantly take you to Gamora? Can you teleport directly to her location right now?"
"No, my teleportation magic can theoretically take you anywhere in the universe. However, I need to know the exact location I am going to. It cannot be next to soone else simply because I know them. It must be their precise location and coordinates. Otherwise, my teleportation magic is powerless to reach them."
"Then what should we do? Can we just watch things happen without being able to do anything about it?"
Looking at Peter who was obviously a little discouraged and losing hope, Sebastian patted him on the shoulder reassuringly and said, "Peter, do not worry about this matter. When I left Gamora earlier, I left a crystal for her to use. As long as she crushes it, I will imdiately know Gamora's exact location and can teleport to her instantly.
But considering that there may be so additional reasons that make Gamora unable to crush the crystal at this mont, I would like to ask you to look for Thanos's location through other ans as well. He will not let Gamora out of his sight for long, so as long as you find Thanos, it is equivalent to finding Gamora. At that ti, you can just notify directly and I will co imdiately.
Of course, before you leave on this mission, I will make so protective items for you. At the very least, these items will ensure that you will no longer be controlled by Supergiant's telepathic abilities. Rest here for half a day while I prepare everything. After half a day, I will have the protective items ready, and then you can set off again to search for them."
Sebastian's words obviously cheered up Peter and the others considerably. Hope returned to their expressions.
Without further delay, as ti was of the essence, Sebastian imdiately returned to Hogwarts to begin his work. With Tony's help, Thor reached the large spaceship outside the security periter with his companions. After confirming that everything was clear and there were no threats, Thor guided the ship outside the T-Fortress and connected it to the bridge. The Sakaar gladiators inside, along with Loki, followed Thor inside the lunar facility.
Tony naturally had a negative impression of Loki after everything that had happened in New York. However, for Thor's sake and out of respect for his friend, he kept quiet about his reservations. Loki was also very obedient for once, staying by his brother's side constantly and never leaving his side for a mont.
After Tony and Yondu chatted for a while, gaining a general understanding of their cosmic influence and the state of various civilizations, Tony began to have so additional ideas about the future. Especially since the Illuminati's vibranium reserves had reached a considerable level, Tony had already begun to think seriously about exploring the universe beyond Earth's solar system.
Sebastian's return was even faster than expected. After distributing protective gear to the Guardians of the Galaxy that would shield their minds from telepathic intrusion, they imdiately set off. They began searching for Thanos's location based on their previous intelligence and contacts throughout the galaxy.
After the Guardians of the Galaxy left on their mission, Thor approached Sebastian with purpose.
"Thor, what can I do for you? You have sothing on your mind."
"Hey, hey, Sebastian, I have two things to ask of you actually."
Seeing Thor's grin, like that of a silly neighbor's son who was about to make an unreasonable request, Sebastian knew Thor had sothing important to ask of him. With a resigned sigh, he nodded with a slight smile, "Okay, whatever you want, if I can help you, I will do my best."
"The first thing, as we discussed before when I visited Hogwarts, is that I want you to forge a weapon. You know the threat of Thanos is no longer just a fignt of our imagination or a distant concern. We will soon face him directly in battle, so I need a weapon that will make even stronger and more capable of standing against him."
Sebastian nodded slowly in understanding. Thor's request was not excessive in the slightest, especially since Sebastian had transford the shattered fragnts of Thor's hamr into the Black Thunder Hamr for Bill. He had also received a magnificent gift from Odin in return, the entirety of Asgard itself and its people. One weapon was not too much to ask given everything that had transpired. Furthermore, Thor would be a key force in the fight against Thanos in the future, so naturally Sebastian had to do his best to help Thor forge a suitable weapon worthy of the God of Thunder.
However, the choice between hamr and axe required careful consideration. Each weapon type had its own advantages and drawbacks.
"Okay, I agree to forge you a weapon. What is your second request?"
At this point, the embarrassed look on Thor's face beca more obvious. He looked at Sebastian shyly and said with hesitation, "Well... I want to take Loki and the others back to Asgard. You see..."
Hearing Thor's words, Sebastian frowned slightly in thought, and then said after a mont, "If you can ensure that Loki is not discovered by Earth's authorities and that he stays in Asgard without causing trouble, then I have no objection and there is no need to ask others for permission. However, they will definitely object if they find out about this arrangent. But if I find out that Loki has done sothing problematic again on Earth or anywhere else, then I will settle the score with you personally."
Sebastian's answer made Thor overjoyed. He nodded repeatedly and said with enthusiasm, "Of course, of course, I will keep an eye on him at all tis. Do not worry about this matter, I know that you are the best friend anyone could ask for, Sebastian. I will arrange everything properly right now."
