Chapter 423: Revenge or Death (2-in-1)
How to describe this face,
Perhaps older people should know that there was once an Internet celebrity named Brother Sharp, and this face is a bit like a weathered version of Brother Sharp, and every wrinkle seems to tell a sad past.
There was a touch of surprise in Ryan's eyes, this surprise was not because of the face in front of him, but because he was lamenting the subtlety of the ancient one's manipulation of the magic land, and directly separated the frozen flesh from the helmet.
Although the gap between himself and the ancient one in terms of pure strength is rapidly shortening, in this subtle manipulation of energy, the ancient one, who has been cultivating for more than a thousand years, has directly exploded a player like himself.
This is a bit like the difference between a professional player and an ordinary player, in fact, it is really difficult to find out what is too much difference in operation, but in terms of consciousness and execution, it is a world of difference.
"Do you know?" Ancient One asked.
Ryan squatted and looked at it for a while, his gaze began to move down from the man's face, to be honest, he didn't have any impression of this face, in fact, except for those female heroes,
He identifies any male hero not by their face, but by their costumes and shapes, or by their iconic weapons and lines.
But the person in front of him obviously couldn't open his mouth, and the clothes looked a little strange......
"Huh..."
Ryan's eyes narrowed, and then he stared at the armor on this person's body for a while, and his mind began to make up the appearance of this armor glowing with purple brilliance, and suddenly he had an answer in his heart,
Although this answer made him scratch his head, he still nodded and replied:
"Yes."
Isn't this person the Cassadine after running out of 'electricity'?
The armor on this person's body, without the purple glow, actually looks very ordinary, so ordinary that it is difficult for you to associate this rotten street armor style with Cassadine's usual sassy dress.
"What are you going to do?" The Ancient One asked,
This is said very horizontally,
One is to express the trust that this matter is left to you to deal with;
The second is to express the attitude that this matter is your business, don't think about it on me again.
Professional to do professional things, since the ancient one knows the truth of black and white, he naturally understands the truth that the bell must be tied to the bell, and to deal with the catastrophe caused by Ryan, it is natural that Ryan himself should go out.
On the one hand, this is Ryan's mission, and on the other hand, it is also a whetstone to polish Ryan.
If in the process, the knife was crippled by the whetstone, then it can only prove that there is a problem with the knife, of course, at least for now, Gu Yi feels that his vision is not bad.
Ryan stood up again, rubbing his hands together in the cold wind, which didn't have much effect, but in this environment, you instinctively felt like you were going to do something that matched it.
"Let it go."
After thinking about it for a while, Ryan said.
"Okay."
The Ancient One didn't say anything, neither shouting to punish the thief who dared to steal the Time Gem, nor did he stand in his own shoes to persuade Ryan to think twice,
Directly waved his hand to make a magic mark, and wisps of golden luster were pulled out of Cassadine's body, which was regarded as directly unlocking the shackles that 'locked' Cassadine.
After losing the suppression of the ancient one, Cassadine first shivered, as if he was suddenly awakened by the urge to urinate in the process of sleeping, and then his two eyes slowly opened, and his eyes were full of tiredness and vicissitudes.
It's just that in the next moment, as if he was aware of his current situation, these vicissitudes and tiredness were directly replaced by a touch of ruthlessness, he raised his right hand, and a purple magic was condensed into the shape of a short blade in an instant.
Ryan, who was the closest, immediately felt a very strong killing intent lock on him, but Ryan didn't choose to resist, or immediately hurry up to open the distance.
He just turned his head and said to the ancient one:
"Let's lock it up first."
"Buzz!"
Gu Yi's eyes froze, and before he had time to dissipate, the golden luster appeared again, and he rushed directly towards Cassadine.
Cassadine glared at Ryan fiercely, and then a purple light flashed, and his figure disappeared from the spot in an instant, but when he appeared on the other side, a golden luster suddenly filled the air around him,
It was as if he had been waiting here for a long time, and his appearance landed right in the center of this luster.
"Bang!"
Cassadine, who had just been ready to bravely enter the Death Island, smashed directly into the snow, splashing layers of snow waves, like a basin of water directly poured on his head, which immediately made his momentum wilt.
Ryan gave the Ancient One a grateful look,
No matter what the reason, it is indeed a very touching thing for a big guy to be willing to listen to your command at this time and temporarily play the role of the little brother.
Ryan walked towards Cassadine on the other side, and when he was about to ask something, he found that Cassadine's eyes were closed, as if the whole person had fallen into a state of nightmare.
"Ahem."
Ryan cleared his throat of discomfort,
Just wanted to say something,
Another golden light flashed in front of him, and Cassadine, who was still a little muddy before, performed the whole process of a vegetative resurrection again, but compared to the last time,
After sobering up this time, Cassadine was obviously 'sober' a lot, no longer shouting and killing directly, and didn't think about how to escape.
Because
The Ancient One only unlocked his head, and the rest of his body was actually still in a frozen state, if the head could still be used for fighting, maybe he would have a chance to try it, but obviously, he couldn't, so he could only let Ryan straighten him like a good baby.
After pushing Cassadine to a rock and straightening it, Ryan suddenly felt a much more comfortable perspective, this problem, maybe it was cultivated when playing with the phone, when he saw the screen horizontally, he always had the urge to put it upright.
"Can you talk properly now?"
Ryan asked.
Cassadine looked at Ryan lightly, and then, putting his gaze on the ancient one, his eyes revealing a clear solemnity, and then, turning his head, looking up at the sky at a forty-five degree angle.
apparently
He attaches great importance to the ancient one,
But for the person in front of him,
Hehe.
"Bang!"
The next moment, Cassadine, who had just posed himself, kicked out and smashed a gap in the snow-covered ground.
Ryan's face was once again in Cassadine's field of vision, and this time, because of his posture, he could only have such a face in his field of vision.
"Now, can you talk properly?"
"Heh..."
"If you can laugh, you can speak." Ryan didn't care about Cassadine's sneer, but asked directly, "How do you know that the Time Gem is here?" ”
Ryan naturally knows the answer to this question, but he does a full set of acts, although he knows the whole development process, he also has to abide by the process of asking questions.
Most people ask questions from the beginning, and there are probably not many people who ask questions in the middle.
"You should know ......" Cassadine's mouth showed a hint of sarcasm, he actually knew Ryan, because that Alice reported to him very carefully, explaining all the details.
And this, in fact, is Ryan's own explanation, after all, if you want to lure a big fish to the bait, it is naturally impossible to throw down any ordinary bait at will, but you need to come up with real materials to be attractive enough.
It's just that Cassadine's words didn't have a chance to be finished,
"Bang!"
Another punch slammed straight down, interrupting Cassadine's speech and sending him deeper into the ground.
"If I knew, I'd ask you?"
Ryan carried Cassadine out of the deep snowdrift with one hand, and then punched Cassadine out of the air, about a dozen or two meters against the wind in the cold wind, and then narrowly landed on the edge of the cliff.
Ryan crouched down in front of Cassadine, took the trouble to straighten Cassadine, and then asked:
"Now, I ask, you answer."
"What do you want to know?"
Cassadine looked at Ryan, the madness in his eyes gradually dissipating, and instead there was more of a smart glow, like a man who had just woken up from a hangover.
Perhaps because of his long-term activities in the Void, his whole person was inevitably affected by the surrounding environment, and violence became the main way to solve problems, and the words communication, exchange, or cooperation had not appeared in his mind for a long time.
But Ryan proved a truth by himself, when there is a person in front of you who is asleep, as long as you beat him hard, although it can't make him completely awake, but he will definitely not be able to continue to sleep wantonly.
"I wonder why you're here?" Ryan gestured to the ground beneath his feet, "You know where this is, right?" ”
"According to you, called, Earth?"
"Yes, I'm curious, why are you here, shouldn't you go after the masked prophet after you left Asgard?"
"If I could find him, I wouldn't have wasted my time here at all!" Cassadine gritted his teeth, apparently as if his emotions were easily stirred up whenever it came to the prophet.
"In other words, you lost it?" Ryan grabbed a handful of snow and sensed the temperature in Ryan's hand, the snow quickly melted into water, and then slid down Ryan's palm.
"It's like grabbing snow with your bare hands, a void?"
"Huh." The corners of Cassadine's mouth grinned, and although his body couldn't move, there was no particularly obvious fear on his body, as if there was something left unused.
"Laugh?" Ryan's men clenched subconsciously, "You should know that he is also my enemy, although the enemy of my enemy is not necessarily a friend, but at the very least, I will not be a stumbling block on your way to revenge." ”
Cooperating with Cassadine, this idea Ryan didn't think about it, but when he was in Asgard before, the kind of friend and foe he showed directly made Ryan dispel this idea.
It's like a teammate who will blow himself up at any time, this kind of person, Ryan doesn't dare to want, after all, god-like opponents are not terrible, but what is terrible is pig-like teammates.
"I can tell you something, but what can I get?" Cassadine was silent for a moment before saying.
"Do you think your current situation is still qualified to negotiate conditions?"
"What do you think?" Cassadine's eyes narrowed, "Do you think you can really eat me?" ”
After all, he is also a person who has experienced the Valoran Tribulation, although his strength is temporarily suppressed by the universe now, but if you want to say that he dared to come and grab the Infinity Stones without one or two preparations, it is really impossible.
"Let's talk about cooperation."
Ryan let go of his clenched fist, and then took two steps back, if he really couldn't think of it later, he would have enough time to react to deal with it.
"You tell me the news about Marzaha, I'll let you go, this time gem, you also saw it, obviously, your current strength can't be taken away, but as long as you don't make things happen on Earth, in fact, we can really live in peace like this."
"Deal." Cassadine looked behind Ryan and said,
In fact, the reason why he agreed was because of the strength of the ancient one, after all, if he couldn't take it himself, he didn't think that the prophet would have a chance to snatch the gem from that strong man.
"I've been tracking Marzahar's whereabouts, and since he left Asgard, he's been using the same tricks he used to try to evade me."
"And then?"
"Then, on a planet I don't know what it's called, I chased him once, and that was the time that let me know that his next purpose was to collect something called the Infinity Stones."
To put it simply,
But enough information was revealed.
at least
It proves that Marzaha's strategy has changed, and before he went to grab the Cosmic Rubik's Cube was simply to be able to summon his friends in the same village, but now, he is focusing on other gems.
high probability,
It was he who didn't know where he learned about the effect of the Cosmic Rubik's Cube, and that effect, to be honest, even if a person like Ryan who was not a careerist knew about it, he couldn't hold back his heartbeat.
Ryan bit his lip,
Following Cassadine's words,
"In other words, you don't actually know why he wants the Infinity Stones, and you came to grab the Time Gems just so that he can take the initiative to come to you when the time comes?"
Cassadine didn't speak, but apparently acquiesced to Ryan's guess.
"So how do you have the confidence to guarantee that you will be able to beat him by then?"
This question, in fact, Ryan was a little confused when he read the background story before, judging from the background introduction of the two people, no matter how you look at it, Cassadine is not Marzaha's opponent.
But the one in front of him is still chasing the ground, and he doesn't know how much energy he has to do.
"Do I need to know?"
Cassadine glanced at Ryan lightly,
Road:
"My life is meaningless, either I succeed in revenge and commit suicide, or I die!"
