Hiding the artifact behind his back without leaving a trace, the Mourner openly used his body to cover his hands in front of Selina, and secretly tore a crack leading to the pocket universe behind his back, and took away the statue she placed in the lobby as a decoration.
"That thing is what I used to imprison the Conductor and Nebulos. If there is life in your universe, it might not be too late to take it out now."
Selina gave the mourners no face at all. She just threw the silver spoon aside and let it float away, then took a few quick steps to sit behind the front desk.
"Um... the Nebros you mentioned... could it be the Ruler of Planets Perilous?"
The mourner, who was trying to disguise his behavior by pretending to look around, was stunned for a moment, then revealed a look of horror.
"If there is another extradimensional demon in the world who likes to shine the Staff of Polar Power everywhere, it is definitely this one."
As soon as these words were spoken, the Mourner instantly tore open the rift and began to search in the pocket universe.
Unfortunately, she was still a step too late...
"No! My cats! My cat paradise! Aaaaaah! It's all ruined!"
Holding less than half of the planet's wreckage in his hands, the mourner turned gray.
"You specifically found a universe where all creatures are cats, and picked out the Earth there to keep as your own? Ugh, gross!"
Selina, who also possessed the almighty power, only took a look at the broken ball and instantly understood what had happened in the other party's pocket universe during this period of time. However, she never expected that the cat paradise he mentioned was actually a world where people and cats were swapped! The cats in that universe were people, and people became cats! Not only that, she even found things on that earth, such as the cat version of the Fantastic Four, the cat version of the X-Men, the cat version of the Avengers, and so on, which made people's eyes black!
Even the heroic civil war that took place in that universe was only because the cat government there stipulated that only registered super cats were eligible to enjoy the benefits of Mu Tian Liao...
"Um... that... am I not getting the point, or what? Why is it that keeping a cat... is disgusting?"
Fortunately, the young man who had been standing in the lobby and daydreaming for a long time suddenly spoke at this moment and successfully helped the mourners out of the predicament.
"You are not from American comics, get out."
It's a pity that Selena didn't intend to give him face.
"Fujimaru... Ritsuka, right? A single room is 8000 yen a night. If you don't have one, you can sleep on the street. We don't support work compensation here."
(PS: I secretly took out a third roll and placed it in the bowl, trying to trap the ticket.)
(PS2: I think that this will make the third volume even more interesting.)
Chapter 126 Crisis on Infinite Earths
"What? 8000 yen!"
Hearing Serena's sudden offer, Fujimaru Ritsuka was shocked. He was just curious about why a hotel gate suddenly appeared in Chaldea, so he wanted to go in and take a look. Unexpectedly, he found that he couldn't go back! There was also a guy who was obviously an alien, with a group of old men, staring silently at another red-haired woman who looked difficult to mess with. He thought that as long as he was a little transparent, nothing would happen. But he didn't expect that after the super explosive store owner appeared in a very cool way, he suddenly turned his spearhead towards himself as a transparent man!
"What? You think it's too much? Do you know the price I gave them is $280?"
After these words came out, Fujimaru Ritsuka, who wanted to say something else, was stunned for a moment. If he calculated correctly, then 280 US dollars should be equivalent to 4 yen?
"To be precise, it should be 39244.8 yen. Of course, this is calculated according to the exchange rate in our world."
Natasha heaved a sigh of relief when she saw the real boss finally come back. When she was browsing the history of the multiverse, she had seen the white-skinned alien next to her. The other party's name was Gol, and he was a famous god-killer in the entire universe. She was afraid that Tony would suddenly get nervous and run over to instigate him, and then the two groups would fight in the hotel. She should be fine with the Infinity Stones, but Steve Rogers and Tony Stark, who are mortals, might be in danger. After all, he was a ruthless man who could fight three people alone and pin Thor to the ground. Although the three who fought with him were all Thor...
"Kid, I have never seen you in the history of the multiverse. So... where did you get here from?"
The six gems in Natasha's hand lit up one by one. The Black Widow, who was about to send the young man back who had obviously gotten into this place by mistake, was obviously confused by the scene when she found that she could not find the world where the other party lived.
"Isn't this simple? They smuggled in from a remote place. The worlds outside are almost in chaos, so it's normal for a few people who have never been seen in the multiverse to appear."
After hearing Natasha's words, Fujimaru Ritsuka looked alert and said nothing. Instead, Serena spoke up and exposed the other party's background, and extended her hand to the lucky person who got her system.
"Give me the antidote, and your mission will be accomplished."
However, in response to Selina's request, Iron Man and Captain America from the Black Widow Universe looked at each other but did not take any action.
“We’ve always had a question.”
Seeing that Natasha had no intention of taking out the potion, Steve Rogers asked directly.
"Then you'd better not have any doubts. The truth is a very cruel thing for ordinary people."
It's a pity that Selena had no intention of giving the other party face.
"But we feel that humans have the right to know these truths. Natasha showed us an entire multiverse, the future of different earths on countless timelines. But in the end, no one can survive. Whether it is the holy war launched by mutants, the Inhumans against various governments, or the tyrants who want to collect infinite gems coming to Earth. Every time we fail, a new timeline will be split. This makes us very confused, because no one dares to guarantee that they can always win. But suddenly, the group of infected people appeared..."
At this point, Steve paused, and Stark on the side continued with understanding.
"The magician told me that after Natasha possessed the most powerful weapon in the universe, all the failed timelines of mankind disappeared, but only one remained. I asked him why, but he didn't say anything, just raised a finger to me."
As he spoke, Tony raised one of his fingers.
"So I want to know, is this the time we lose?"
Stark still remembers that when he kept asking Strange, he was obviously at a loss. According to him, even the observers on the moon had never seen such a situation where the future was locked. If he really wanted to figure it out, the only way was to ask the Living Tribunal...
"Don't you already know the answer? Yes, you guys lost miserably. Some of you even traveled back in time to reverse the future."
Hearing this, Steve Rogers' face turned green instantly.
"And there's one more thing. You guys got here about 20 years too early. So... I'm sorry, but the Living Tribunal is now dead."
As she spoke, Selina waved her hand and projected an image from the Blue Zone of the Moon in Universe 616. What caught everyone's eyes was the cracked, skinny and withered corpse of the Life Tribunal...
"Oh, God!"
Seeing this, the superheroes lost control of their expressions instantly. Even Gel, who was standing by and watching the show, frowned the moment the corpse of the Living Tribunal appeared. Only Fujimaru Ritsuka was standing by with a confused look on his face, his hair disheveled in the wind. After all... he didn't understand a single word of what everyone was saying.
"In fact, I thought you would know what was going to happen when you saw her."
Selina didn't take the shock of the superheroes to heart. The words that the mourner had said to her before were really informative. She suspected that there might be someone more outrageous than Kang the Conqueror among the time travelers. Otherwise, the other party wouldn't have said that she came here to witness the demise of the entire omnipotent universe...
"A group of very strange people appeared in our world. They claimed to be led by a great conqueror. But if I'm not mistaken, that shouldn't be the Nathaniel Richards I remember."
Gel, who had been silent for a long time, also spoke at this time.
"Of course not. That's not Kang the Conqueror from the original history. The very strange group of people you saw are actually travelers from outside the multiverse."
Selina snapped her fingers.
Then, the hotel lobby in everyone's sight disappeared without a trace in an instant.
Instead, there is a strange array composed of countless Earths, and this... is the truest appearance of the space-time continuum!
(PS: We are about to enter the real secret war main storyline!)
(PS2: Then he stretched out a hand, put it in the bowl and started waiting for the tickets...)
Chapter 127 Kang the Conqueror: Origins
The development of human civilization is always accompanied by wars. War seems to have become an essential part of human evolution. From cold weapons to hot weapons, and from hot weapons to war machines, it has only been two world wars. In these two short centuries, human attack methods have become stronger and stronger, and firearms have changed from queuing and firing one round per minute to double-mounted artillery that can fire dozens of kilograms of metal in one minute.
"Are you ready, Dr. Zora?"
July 1942, the day before the Battle of Stalingrad...
"My equipment requires the finest adjustment. Please forgive me if I appear to be overly cautious."
The Red Skull, dressed in Nazi uniform, was standing next to Arnim Zola, watching his short colleague conducting a horrific experiment that was beyond the scope of human understanding in the current era...
"Can you confirm that those conductors can withstand the long-term conduction of peak energy?"
The light blue object mounted in the center of the instrument is called the Cosmic Cube.
"Faced with this creation of God, I can't be sure of anything. I'm afraid it may not work at all... The energy transmission begins, 20%, 40%, 60%, 70%, the energy transmission is very stable..."
It is said that in order to create this thing, one must open a crack connecting to a certain extraordinary realm.
"I didn't do this to save my life, Doc."
Humans may not understand what this extraordinary realm means, but it doesn't really matter...
"boom!"
As violent blue energy gushed out, a large-scale explosion occurred in this small laboratory. A space storm swept through the entire room, and even gravity was temporarily unbalanced.
Feeling the slight vibration go away, the man in some strange armor realized that the transmission from the asymmetric linear folding device was finally completed. Slowly opening his eyes, his sight quickly broke through the smoke and noticed the two people crawling on the ground and coughing. Exceptionally cutting-edge technology, extremely retro equipment, German military uniforms from World War II...
"Have I arrived in the world of Wolfenstein?"
He thought so...
"What happened, sir!"
The gate was breached by soldiers, and soldiers wearing armbands and holding submachine guns poured in. The man noticed at a glance that the armband on the other party's arm was not the swastika in history, which meant that this was not the world of Wolfenstein, and this style...
"Hydra? Since when did Hydra have believers?"
Some low electronic music echoed in the room. The man who suddenly appeared here was very surprised. He always felt that the armbands of the people in front of him seemed familiar, but he just couldn't remember where he had seen them.
"and many more!"
Dr. Zola and Schmidt climbed up from the ground. Schmidt waved his hand to stop the approaching soldiers. He stared at the man in front of him with fiery eyes, which made him feel a little flustered. Could it be that he...had met some pervert?
"You guys go back first. I want to have a good chat with this gentleman who suddenly appeared."
After sending the soldiers away, Schmidt walked through the dilapidated laboratory. He picked up a piece of machine debris and turned to look at Zora who was standing beside him with a confused look on his face.
"Dr. Zora, it seems that we have not guessed the true purpose of the cube. It is not an infinite energy source at all, but a space teleporter! When we inject energy into it, it is equivalent to opening the door to the teleportation space..."
"So... I ended up in some Marvel universe, right?"
Looking at the two people in front of him who were stunned at the same time, the man barely recalled the identity of the arrogant officer in front of him and the short doctor. That was the founder of Hydra, Red Skull, and the famous Dr. Arnim Zola.
"Tell me about the current situation, what year it is, and what you are doing."
"Yes, my master."
The Red Skull, who was brainwashed by his mental power, talked nonstop, while the man picked up the Cosmic Cube that fell to the side and played with it in his hand. He was a little surprised at the time of his arrival, and then he was speechless about the Asymmetric Linear Folder. If I guessed correctly, as long as there is an existence that can interfere with space, the Asymmetric Linear Folder can operate normally. This also explains why Deadpool always appears in some strange places when he uses this thing to travel through the multiverse.
This time, he traveled through time without even specifying a location, and it brought him into the Marvel Universe. If he had specified that he wanted to enter the Marvel Universe, wouldn't he have appeared in countless different universes?
For example, in the Marvel Zombie Universe, when zombie heroes enter other universes, the asymmetric linear folding device may throw them in. For example, when Reed is looking for a solution to the civil war in various parallel universes, the asymmetric linear folding device will throw him in. More recently, during the Secret Wars, the Transcendent Protoss conducted a collision experiment of the entire multiverse. Or, during the Infinity End, when Thanos met the Marvel Supreme God...
As long as there is a huge interference force, the transmission of the asymmetric linear folder will become unstable, and it may even be forcibly pulled to another parallel universe.
Just like now, his teleportation was interfered by the Cosmic Cube built by Hydra in a certain Marvel universe, causing him to land directly in the headquarters of Hydra. According to this idea, if he wants to return to this world using the asymmetric linear folding device, he may land at three different time points. One is when A-Tech began to study the Cosmic Cube, one is when the Cosmic Cube gained self-awareness, and one is when Thanos got the Cosmic Cube... Moreover, Asgard's Rainbow Bridge might also interfere with him, after all, it is a teleportation device that can cross tens of thousands of galaxies.
"The saying 'it's tasteless to eat, but a pity to throw away' probably refers to this kind of thing."
Looking at the asymmetric linear folding device in his hand, the man shook his head. The analysis of the folding device has been completed. He has successfully learned how to set up the space anchor and then shuttle back and forth between two different worlds...
"So, what should we call you?"
The mind control from Professor X is indeed very useful. In just a moment, he successfully made the Red Skull and Dr. Zola become his loyal fans.
