Ronan's flagship.
"We're being tracked," a Kree science officer reported to Ronan on the bridge, who called up the ship's radar image.
Ronan glanced at the scanned image: "We don't have time to play games with them, go into the meteorite belt and get rid of them."
"Yes!"
……
The flagship of the Heavenly Sword Bureau.
"They found us." Monica looked at the course of Ronan's fleet on the screen, "They changed course, and the front is..."
"Warning!" The AI on the flagship issued an alarm.
"This is the meteorite belt!" A crew member reported loudly, "We can't pass here safely!"
"Then why can Ronan!" Monica scolded very dissatisfied, "His flagship is no smaller than ours!"
"I'm afraid it's because the Cree know far more about this place than we do, and they may have figured out a relatively safe route." Carol said while looking at the flying meteorite.
"What should we do now? We found them with great difficulty. If we give up now, it will be difficult to find them again. This is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack. Well, it's even harder than that..." Monica gritted her teeth and said.
"If you want to cross the meteorite belt without a route, all you need is a small ship and the best pilot in the universe." Star Lord appeared on the screen, "Fortunately, now we have a choice .
"The Dawn is small enough, and I am the best pilot in the universe. Now I will take over and continue to chase. You leave for now, and I will send you the coordinates after you leave here."
Watching the Aurora disappear into radar detection range with the Guardians of the Galaxy on board, Reed nodded to the Fantastic Four behind him, turned and left the bridge.
"Where are you going?" Monica asked suspiciously.
"Now I can only wait here, and waiting most of the time doesn't make much sense, so I plan to do some other investigations." Reed replied.
"Other investigations?" Monica didn't understand.
……
"I don't quite understand either."
On the desolate planet, Johnny followed Reed off the spaceship, "I mean, this is indeed the place where Ronan has been, but there is nothing here, isn't it? If they really found something here, then Don't you just keep running around like a headless chicken, if even Ronan, who knows what he's looking for, can't find anything here, what can we find here?"
Reed didn't answer.
He took his computer and scanner to seriously investigate the planet's soil and atmosphere.
"I don't think now is a good time to do cosmic environmental investigations," Johnny grumbled.
"Okay, let's go back." Reid seemed to have completed the investigation, he put away the device and started walking back.
Back in his spaceship, he imported the data into the database on the spaceship, and then started a program.
"So, what were you asking just now?" It was only then that he answered Johnny's question for the first time.
Johnny squeezed out a smile with a little embarrassment: "I mean, what can we get here now? It has been proven by Ronan that this is not the place he wants, isn't it?"
"Indeed." Reed nodded, "Ronan proved that this is not the destination he wanted, but if he came here, he must have his own reasons, considering that the state of this planet cannot provide them with Any supplies, so his purpose of coming here must be because it has some connection with his ultimate purpose."
"However, he proved that this connection is wrong and does not exist." Johnny said, "This is a worthless failure."
"Every failure is valuable." Reid shook his head, "When you study any person, his failures are far more valuable than his successes, especially when you try to understand why they failed At that time, all these are priceless.
"It's like now that Ronan came to this planet because he thought there might be something valuable here, so his thought itself is a kind of value for us, I don't need it. Is there really something here?" What, I just need to know why he thinks it makes sense here, that's why I came here."
"So... what do you understand?" Johnny was still a little confused, "What does he think is meaningful here?"
At this point, the program running on the computer has the result.
Reed quickly turned his head to look over.
"Look, that's what it means." He gave the screen to Johnny.
"This is... what?" Johnny looked at the various "symbols" that obviously had completely different styles on his face, "I can recognize them, some of which seem to be Kree characters? I remember learning a little bit before... ..."
"No matter what Ronan is looking for, he must be looking for something that may or actually exists. Then, you think, a thing that Ronan thinks is valuable, but currently has no owner, actually exists, a clue to this thing , where will it be?" Reed said.
"It sounds like a legend, something like King Arthur's Sword in the Stone, or the Gun of Longinus..." Johnny thought for a while, then said, "It's something in myths and legends."
"Yes." Reed said, "This is the crux of the problem. Every legendary item has a factor that is bound to its own story, such as King Arthur's Sword in the Stone. Then, the elements about him are, The lake, the sword in the stone, only those who are qualified can draw it.
"This is the key issue. Even if the words "Sword in the Stone" are not mentioned, as long as these elements are mentioned, people will involuntarily think of this divine sword. Therefore, even if you find the wrong lake, if you are looking for Lake, then, may also lead others to think that you're looking for the Sword in the Stone."
"So... do you think some characteristics of this planet can let us figure out what Ronan is looking for?" Johnny asked cautiously.
"I don't think so, it must be so." Reed said, "Ronan must have come here because there is a certain characteristic that fits the story he is after, and now I have entered all possible characteristics of this planet. My database, and then cross-contrast them with all the legends of intelligent races in the universe that I know, and filter out those that meet the conditions."
"It sounds like looking for a needle in a haystack? And, are you sure you know all the cosmic folklore?" Johnny was a little bit unconvinced.
"I also have this worry, so I asked Xandar to send a copy of all the folklore records they have recorded." Reed nodded deeply, "I combined the two for comparison, so that even if there is something Omission, there is a high probability that it will not be what Ronan is looking for."
"So... have you found it now?" Johnny decided not to continue discussing whether the plan was feasible but to ask the result directly.
Reid frowned and glanced at the result he just got.
"In fact, I got 13454 cosmic folktales that might fit..."
"Well..." Johnny felt that he had foreseen all this, "It doesn't sound like there is any real progress."
"No substantial progress?" Reed disagreed at all. "This is a breakthrough! The probability of us finding the earth and returning home has changed from infinitesimal to 450 in [-]!"
