Chapter 80: The Son of the Stars

"Wait, what kind of thing are you talking about cosmic fire?" Li Jie searched his stomach and searched for any information related to the Marvel universe in his mind, but he didn't know that there was such a thing as cosmic fire.

Although Eason Chan has only watched some Marvel movies, if there is really a cosmic fire, something that sounds very lofty, then Marvel movies should probably also be involved, why not?

But it's also, after all, movies are movies, reality is reality, so many incredible things have happened in this universe, and it wouldn't be a big deal to have more incredible things.

"The cosmic fire is the origin of this world. Faced with Li Jie's completely unclear appearance, Master Gu Yi began to explain slowly: "I believe you have heard some of the sayings in Chinese Taoism. Tao begets one, one begets two, two begets three, and three begets all things. ”

In other mythological stories, there are similar sayings. Heaven and earth are in harmony, the universe is beginning to open, and everything is in chaos. Or to use science now, everything in the universe began with a Big Bang. Because of this big bang, there are all living beings and all things, and there is this wonderful universe. Gu Yi seemed to be going to speak slowly, because it even grabbed a bottle of drink from the void and handed it to Li Jie.

"It's a long story, so why don't you sit down and listen to me while you have a drink. ”

Li Jie looked at the drink suspiciously, and asked the ancient mage, "This isn't a magic enhancement potion, is it?"

Although he is one of the bosses of Dawning 101, at least one of the bosses behind the scenes, Li Jie does not want to start becoming a customer of Dawning 101 when he is 20 years old, at least after the age of 60.

In the face of Li Jie's inquiry, Ancient One Master smiled: "Don't worry, I won't give precious resources to useless people." ”

"Huh?" I already wonder what the Ancient One mage means by that, and he looks down on himself for not having a talent for magic?

"Don't worry, it's just ordinary juice. Oh, by the way, where did I just go? Oh, the Big Bang and the Cosmic Fire. Actually, the cosmic fire hypothesis was not proposed by me, but by a few of the best people in the Brotherhood of the Aegis. ”

Hearing Master Gu Yi say this, Li Jie quickly asked, "So the person who came up with this idea is Newton?"

"It should be said that it was not just Newton. The Aegis Brotherhood, which is the most elite group of people in the world. They contain the most brilliant scientists, artists, magicians, prophets, and more. The Ancient One Master paced back and forth.

Newton is just one of the more famous ones, but also Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, Galileo, Zhang Heng and so on. They are the best people in the world. I can tell you everything I know. Because I think it's almost time. ”

Master Ancient One had never spoken to him so seriously, and Li Jie believed that every word Master Gu Yi said next was very crucial.

"The Aegis Brotherhood began more than 2,000 years BC. Imhotep is the founder, and he is the only legendary figure in Egypt who has been made a god by man. Because of the first xeno-invasion, although the elite of the human race led by Imhotep defeated the invading xenomorphs, Imhotep had an idea to gather the best people in the world and make sacrifices for the survival of the earth when necessary. "These etiquettes that the Ancient One Master said have actually been heard on Tony Stark's side. The Ancient One Mage spoke, and he really didn't have the courage to interrupt the Ancient One Mage.

He can't always tell stories to those live broadcast anchors, and then keep sending barrages and saying: "I've heard this story, I've heard it, I've changed it to another one." "Those water friends are the same.

Gu Yi babbled on and told Li Jie some stories about the origin of the Brotherhood of the Holy Shield, and these stories were all stories that Li Jie had heard.

And when Master Gu Yi began to tell the story of China's Zhang Heng, it was from here that Li Jie did not know.

"The Aegis Brotherhood, which has been in operation for many years. It was quiet until the Western Han Dynasty in China, when Zhang Heng, who we are familiar with inventing the geokinetic instrument, became the leader of the Holy Shield Brotherhood, and there was a small deviation. ”

Li Jie frowned slightly and asked, "What kind of deviation?"

"A female god has come to Earth. ”

Regarding Gu Yi's answer, Li Jie didn't understand very well. He asked, "Was it strange that the gods came down at that time?" and "yes, is it really strange?"

"I don't understand, I know what you're thinking right now, the god I'm talking about is completely different from the one you have at home. The Ancient One shook his head.

"The gods I am talking about are not the gods as you understand them. As I said, everything in the world has the origin of the cosmic fire. It's all the beginning, and if you have to explain it in terms of the earth's scientific system, it's not necessarily accurate, but you can understand it as a singularity. It is the beginning of all things. ”

"There was no universe before it, and the current universe was formed after the explosion of the cosmic fire. The first beings to appear in the universe were called gods. But unlike the gods you see now, these gods are called the Old Gods, and they are stupid, and though they are great and powerful, they are not as intelligent as infants. He is ugly and only cries. ”

The ancient gods mentioned by the ancient master subverted Li Jie's imagination of gods.

"The Old Gods wander the universe and wander without a purpose. And after an unknown number of years, a new group of creatures was born from the bodies of the ancient gods, and they are called the gods. They are the ones who first established the order of the universe, and all life in the universe originated from the gods. They extract their own DNA, replicate it into various forms of life, and spread it throughout the universe. It can be said that the life of all intelligent beings originates from the gods. All people, including you and me, are descendants of God. ”

The more Li Jie listened, the more confused he became: "Wait, if you say that everyone is the descendant of the gods, then what are Thor?"

Ancient One Master glanced at Li Jie: "Yes, that's what I'm going to say. In reality, the gods are not endlessly able to survive. The gods still have an end to their lives, but their lives are close to infinite compared to the units of time that we can know and understand. ”

"The gods will eventually die, and the second generation of gods will be born in the body of the gods who have died, which is what we can understand now, including Odin, including the Jade Emperor, or the Buddha, those gods you can imagine. They are all second-generation Protoss. ”

"Of course, everything I'm talking about now stems from the hypothesis that the Brotherhood of the Aegis has evolved over millennia of speculation. One of the most crucial is Newton's hypothesis, which combines almost all the important knowledge within the Brotherhood of the Aegis to create a new system. Great science, silent mathematics, silent truth, hidden art, and mystical alchemy. ”

"Newton created a new system, and the grand formula deduced an incredible result. Our world will eventually be destroyed by the gods. Newton didn't believe in all this, or didn't want it to happen, and he came to Kamataki to look for me, to find the way to the door to the multiverse. ”

The corners of Li Jie's mouth twitched: "You told him?"

"Yes, I told him. And he also became a very great mage. Gu always said: "Because he told me that our world should not end like this." I believed him, and he found some clues in various texts about the legendary godkiller. ”

The name Godslayer was heard by Li Jie, and it was a name that appeared many times in Newton's manuscripts. Lee Kit asked, "So what is that? Where did Newton hear about these things?"

Gu Yi sat down next to Li Jie and patted him on the shoulder: "Don't worry, listen to me slowly." Going back to what I said earlier, the Aegis brothers will deviate a little. That's because a female god came to Earth. The goddess needs to requisition the earth, and she originally needed to destroy all intelligent beings on the whole earth. At that time, Zhang Heng represented human beings and negotiated with the gods. ”

Everyone thought that Zhang Heng, who was holding a divine spear, was using force, or deterrence, to persuade the goddess to leave the earth. But this is not the case, and only a very small number of people know the truth at that time. In fact, Zhang Heng compromised, and he promised the gods a condition in exchange for 1 million years of survival time on the earth. ”

"What conditions are worth waiting for the gods for a million years, and why would the goddesses want to destroy all the intelligent creatures on the earth?" Li Jie listened to more and more, the more puzzled he became, and he felt as if his brain had been soaked in water, and now it was a little short-circuited.

Gu Yi pointed to the sun in the sky: "The sun, the orange sun, the light of human life. But no one knows what's hidden in there. ”

"So what the hell is it?" Li Jie was already dissatisfied with the way the Ancient One Master spoke in circles.

"A son of the stars, he is the hope of all the gods. "The Ancient One mage said shocking words.

PS: Most of the content setting in this chapter is taken from the official Marvel comic "The Legend of the Holy Shield". But as before, I've made some appropriate modifications. Otherwise, some of the plots and stories of my book may not be complete.

For example, regarding the birth of gods such as Torodin and Heavenly Court, I have made some modest changes. The above is hereby explained.
