American comics: A salted fish becomes a saint by hanging up

The illusion gradually disappeared, and the palace returned to peace. The man nodded, a hint of relief in his eyes, "You passed the test, and the Time Stone now belongs to you."

Lin Nan walked forward and gently touched the red gem, and a powerful energy instantly surged into his body. He felt his strength growing, as if the entire universe's time was under his control.

"Thank you," Lin Nan said to the man, his eyes full of gratitude.

The man smiled slightly, turned around and walked into the darkness, disappearing without a trace. Lin Nan knew that his mission was not over yet, and there was still a time gem waiting for him to find.

The clue to the third time gem points to a frozen snowfield. Lin Nan walks in the biting cold wind and feels his strength gradually running out, but he does not give up. He knows that only by finding all the time gems can he gain the power to defeat Thanos.

After trekking through the snowy plains for several days, Lin Nan finally found a hidden cave in an iceberg. He walked into the cave and felt a strong energy fluctuation. Deep in the cave was a green gem suspended, emitting a soft light.

"I'm Lin Nan, this is Lisa, and that's Carlos." Lin Nan introduced briefly, "We are from another timeline, and we are looking for allies to fight Thanos together."

Ryan nodded, with a hint of appreciation in his eyes, "I see, Thanos' army is destroying timeline after timeline, and we are also looking for more allies. Your appearance is good news for us."

"We need more information." Lin Nan said, "What is Thanos' next plan?"

Ryan frowned, "From what we know, Thanos is looking for an ancient artifact that, if he gets his hands on it, will have the power to destroy the entire universe. We must stop him."

Lin Nan took a deep breath, "Then we must act as soon as possible. Ryan, can you take us to see your leader? We need to unite more people."

"Of course." Ryan nodded, "Please follow me."

Ryan led Lin Nan and the other two through the ruins and came to a hidden underground base. This was Kamar-Taj's temporary command center, surrounded by defensive formations and runes to prevent sudden attacks from the enemy.

"Chief, we have found a new ally." Ryan said to a middle-aged man. The man was wearing a black robe and his face was full of traces of time, but his eyes still sparkled with wisdom.

"Welcome, Lin Nan, Lisa, Carlos." The middle-aged man said with a smile, "I am August, the leader of Kamar-Taj, and I am glad to meet you."

"Leader, we need your help," Lin Nan said bluntly, "We must stop Thanos from obtaining that ancient artifact."

August nodded, "We are already preparing for action, but we need more intelligence and power. Lin Nan, I heard that you have the power of the Time Stone, which is a huge advantage for us."

"Yes, the Time Stone can help us turn the tide of the war." Lin Nan said, "But we need a careful plan."

August pondered for a moment, took out a map, pointed to a place marked with a red dot and said, "This is the intelligence we have received. Thanos' army is gathering here, preparing to seize the artifact. We must arrive before them and destroy their plan."

"We need more people," Carlos said. "This operation is very dangerous. We can't do it alone."

August nodded, "I will gather all those who can fight and prepare to set out before midnight."

Lin Nan and the other two discussed a detailed action plan with August and determined their respective tasks and responsibilities. Lin Nan was responsible for using the power of the Time Stone to disrupt and stop the enemy's attack; Lisa and Carlos were responsible for cover and raids; Ryan and other soldiers were responsible for frontal attacks to gain time and space.

At midnight, the soldiers of Kamar-Taj were ready to go. Lin Nan, Lisa and Carlos stood at the front of the team, their eyes full of determination and resolve.

"We will definitely succeed." Lin Nan whispered, holding the Time Stone tightly in his hand.

"For victory." Lisa and Carlos said at the same time, with a gleam of determination in their eyes.

They set off, passing through ruins and jungles, approaching the target location silently. Lin Nan felt the pulse of time and knew that the enemy's army was not far away.

"Everyone be careful, the enemy is just ahead." Lin Nan reminded in a low voice.

They slowly approached and saw that Thanos' army was surrounding an ancient temple, surrounded by sentinels and defensive formations. Lin Nan took a deep breath, knowing that this would be a tough battle.

"Ryan, lead the soldiers to attack from the front and attract their attention." Lin Nan commanded, "Lisa, Carlos, follow me to attack from the side and find the artifact."

Ryan nodded, "Understood, we will definitely do our best."

The battle was about to break out, Ryan led the soldiers to launch a fierce attack, attracting the enemy's attention. Lin Nan, Lisa and Carlos took the opportunity to go around to the side and sneak into the temple.

The interior of the temple was full of traps and defensive formations, but Lin Nan used the power of the time gem to easily break these obstacles. They went deeper and finally found the ancient artifact in the deepest part of the temple - a crystal ball shining with a strange light.

"That's it!" Lisa said in surprise and reached out to take the crystal ball.

But at this moment, a powerful energy wave hit, and Lin Nan felt an invisible force pushing them back. Thanos appeared in the temple, with a dangerous light flashing in his eyes.

"Do you think you can stop me?" Thanos sneered, holding another gem in his hand.

On the other side, Lin Nan, who followed her back to Kamar-Taj, also fought with her.

Lin Nan's heart was filled with anger and despair, he knew that the current battle would determine the fate of the entire timeline. He tightly grasped the Time Stone, injected all his strength, and prepared to fight Thanos for the final battle.

"Lin Nan, be careful!" Lisa shouted. She saw the gem in Thanos' hand flashing dangerously, and was about to deliver a fatal blow.

Lin Nan quickly cast a time magic spell, and the time around him slowed down instantly. He took this opportunity to rush towards Thanos, and the time gem in his hand emitted a dazzling light. The two powerful energies collided in the air, causing a violent vibration, and the entire temple was shaking.

Thanos sneered and looked at Lin Nan with contempt, "Do you think you can defeat me with this little power?"

"For the sake of all timelines, I must stop you!" Lin Nan gritted his teeth and used all his strength to exert the power of the Time Gem.
