Chapter 147 The Stalker
They sampled the alien food here, and everyone ate it with great courage. Fortunately, the taste wasn't strange. After all, the Xandarians were similar to Earthlings, and their tastes weren't particularly odd.
Then came a shopping trip, and Star-Lord actually followed them the whole time, or rather, followed Gamora.
Is Gamora very attractive?
Link wasn't quite sure what the other person's mind was working, but they bought some alien items and then returned to the Avenger.
The journey will continue, after all, this time it's about exploring other planets in the universe, and it's impossible to go straight back to Earth. With the star map and data given by the Xandarians, which are more complete than those given by the Asgardians.
After all, Asgard is relatively closed off, and people from other planets don't usually come there, while Xandar is more open, and everyone can come as long as they don't break the law.
Star-Lord had no choice but to leave; Link and the others had no intention of taking him with them.
……
Thanos's face remained expressionless, but Ebony Maw sensed his anger. "Master, shall we send a fleet to intercept them?"
"No~" Thanos uttered a single word, then said, "There is now a powerful being among Earthlings who possesses four Infinity Stones. He is not someone we can deal with."
"I need to find a way to deal with him. Now that Nebula has been captured and Gamora has betrayed us, he should be well aware of our strength."
Thanos raised his left hand, on which he wore the Infinity Gauntlet, but it was a fake he had designed, completely incapable of bearing the power of the Infinity Stones. The dwarves needed to craft a real one.
Link can hide this from the Avengers, but anyone in the universe who knows about the Infinity Stones knows how powerful he is. He can now withstand the power of four Infinity Stones, so his body is no ordinary being.
Moreover, to some powerful beings in the universe, he is as dazzling as a light in the darkness, making him difficult to hide.
Ebony Maw remained silent, knowing that Thanos had no way to deal with him for the time being, so he couldn't make a move.
Thanos is holding back for now; they won't take any action until they figure out a way to deal with Link.
Link and his crew took a stroll through the universe, visited several relatively peaceful planets, and then returned to Earth.
This time, the Avengers didn't stay away for long, less than a year. After returning to Earth, they gathered together to introduce Gamora, who would then explain some of Thanos's situation.
Including Thanos's armed forces, she was then placed at the ground headquarters. Gamora still needs to be tested for the time being, but her green skin is also a problem, and she needs to be disguised when she goes out.
Natasha was in charge of showing her around and letting her learn about the Earth.
T'Challa returned to Wakanda and reported on his experiences during the trip.
Sam and Bruce also returned to Earth, and their fighting styles were not suitable for Space Headquarters.
Link returned home to find Jessica already waiting for him. The two kissed for a long time before sitting down to talk. Link did most of the talking, discussing things in the universe, which he found very interesting. He even showed Jessica some recorded footage.
However, Link soon received a call from Frank. Neither Frank nor McCall went back to the apartment; instead, they remained at the Osborne Building.
"What's wrong?" Link came to their lounge, which was specially prepared for the two of them. It had a bedroom, a bathroom, and a living room, and was very well prepared.
Sometimes Link and Jessica attend events, and the two of them accompany them, one as a driver and the other as a bodyguard, so their schedules are not fixed.
They would rest here whenever they came home late at night.
The fact that the two of them didn't leave but stayed here means they must have discovered something wrong.
Frank said, "Someone is following Jessica."
McCall nodded and said, "It's a middle-aged white woman between forty and fifty years old."
"However, her tracking was very crude, suggesting she had not received professional training and lacked transportation. Every morning, she would appear in the underground parking lot of the building where the charity foundation was located."
"Her gaze was basically fixed on Jessica the whole time."
After listening, Link thought for a moment and asked, "You didn't make contact with them?"
"No!" Frank shook his head, then explained, "The other party was not armed and had been silently observing at the same time and place every day, just watching."
"So for the time being, we judged that there was no danger, so we did not take any action."
"This has been going on for over a month. Thankfully you're back. It's up to you to decide."
Link said directly, "Great, we'll go with you tomorrow. Once we get to the parking lot, you go up with Jessica as usual, and I'll stay in the car."
"I'll follow that woman and see where she goes."
"Understood." The two nodded. This matter was now easier to handle. They had considered following him, but it wasn't appropriate.
Because Jessica always travels with the same people: a driver and a bodyguard. But when she was at the foundation, she was accompanied by a secretary and several assistants.
The secretary was in charge of Jessica's schedule, while the assistant helped her manage the foundation's operations.
……
The next day, Link and Jessica went directly to the underground parking lot of the Osborne Building. They got into the car, with Frank in the passenger seat and McCall driving as usual.
After the car arrived at the foundation building and entered the underground parking lot, Frank said, "She's still on the left!"
Link glanced at it and then said, "Get out of the car and take the elevator as usual."
Jessica already knew what was going on, but she wasn't worried at all. After giving Link a kiss, she got out of the car, and the three of them walked towards the elevator as usual.
Link opened the car door at this moment and quietly got out, his target still in his sight.
If I'm not mistaken, this woman should be Tracy's mother.
When Link was with Jessica, he knew he would have to face her sooner or later. Now, thanks to his strong learning ability and the vast amount of knowledge he had acquired, he should be able to cure her.
After all, she's Jessica's mother; Link can't just kill her outright. They need to talk.
Elisa Jones still couldn't control her emotions. She had once gone out to look for Jessica when Jessica was in college and had a boyfriend.
However, this man was not a good person; he wanted to take advantage of Jessica, but Alyssa Jones discovered it.
