Chapter 13: The Pope of the Machine (IV.)

Everything is back to normal after the Ancient One returns to Kamataki, as if nothing had happened, or really nothing had happened to these minor characters.

"Master..."Mordo seemed to have something to tell the Ancient One.

"Quiet!" Mordo is a fundamentalist, and with the arrival of the Outer Gods, reality will be in chaos, and his moral standards will inevitably make him unacceptable to the status quo, so he may make a choice to anger the Outer Gods, and now he has become a problem.

"Master... Ah~~~" After Mo Du spoke again, Gu Yi waved his hand and knocked him away, so Mo Du turned into a star in the sky, of course, Gu Yi did not make a dead hand, just let him suffer some hardships, and then said under the gaze of all the mages: "Give me a little quiet, if you also want to become a star, I can fulfill you." And call me Casillas."

The Ancient One, who swept through the gods and suppressed hell, is back. Now she's in some trouble.

.............

Tony's seaside villa.

"Uh~ What happened just now?" Tony, unconscious, woke up, and he had forgotten all about what had just happened.

"It's nothing, it's just that my coffee is stronger, and you're drunk." Hikaru Oda doesn't have any AC counts at all about the lethality of his coffee, and now he has a new set of tools for hand-grinding coffee. He believes that with the new tools, the coffee will taste good.

"Drunk coffee? Do you have this disease? It's like a hangover. ”

"Let's have another drink of soul wine, it's like a hangover."

"Thanks, one more drink." Tony, who was in a daze, didn't realize what was waiting for him at all, and Jarvis was turned off by Hikaru Oda, and he couldn't be warned even if he wanted to.

"Hmm~ Can you just put the coffee next to me, I..."

"I'm not used to taking things from other people, right, cut~ This is why I have a good temper, and I don't know how you died after changing to Oba Donkey." Hikaru Oda is always very tolerant of people who want to drink his coffee, and as long as we have this cup of coffee, we are friends.

'Damn forget that there's a god around you, damn the coffee is too strong, it's worse than drinking vodka. Also Who is Oba the Donkey? Tony was still not used to accommodating others, but the meaning revealed in Hikaru Oda's words alerted him: "It's time to restrain yourself." ’

Thinking of this, Tony picked up the coffee on the side, and as soon as he picked it up, a unique aroma of coffee entered his head, and his brain was suddenly refreshed: "It's so fragrant, just smelling it is a pleasure." ”

"Oh roar~~ Thank you for the compliment, drink it." Hikaru Oda was very happy with Tony's compliment, and he decided not to experiment with him in the future.

"Goo Dong ~ Dong Dong!" Tony is also not a particular person, and after a few words of praise, he took two sips of dry coffee, and then fell to the ground again before he even had time to say a word.

Hikaru Oda, who was on the side, would hold a voice recorder and say: "The 996th coffee trial is over, Tony dies again, the coffee smells more fragrant, but the taste does not change, Cthulhu tentacles fail to grind coffee, and the experiment is temporarily suspended." ”

The world resets again, and Tony wakes up again

"Uh~ What happened just now?" Tony, unconscious, woke up, and he had forgotten all about what had just happened.

Hikaru Oda didn't say anything, just handed over an elixir.

This time Tony took it directly, and in the dark he had a feeling that something terrible would happen if he didn't pick it up, and he looked at the round ball in his hand and asked Oda Hikaru, "Hikari, what is this?" ”

"It's nothing, you drank my coffee, and my coffee is stronger, after all, it is drunk by God, and your body pineapple pineapple is da. This is the medicine that will cure you. "He's not going to admit that it's his coffee that makes you undrinkable.

"Well, pineapple pineapple is not grammatical, but don't say it." As soon as he tilted his neck, Tony swallowed the medicine, and suddenly felt refreshed... Nothing has changed, I am still languishing, and my body... There is no change, my head still hurts, and my whole body is still uncomfortable.

............

By the time Tony recovered again, it had been 3 days, and the effect of the pill had gradually been revealed, and his state had been locked into a human being, and nothing could change his genes, his soul. And it also gives him the ability to heal himself, the advantage is that he doesn't have to rest, and he won't get tired even if he works continuously.

As the first class was about to start this afternoon, Tony, who was in a state of apprehension, walked slowly into the basement.

All the high-tech equipment in the basement was cleared, and only the rows of freezers where the corpses were stored worked silently.

"Tony, you've had a good rest these days, I ask you, what do you think of the book I handed you." During Tony's three days off, Hikaru Oda handed him a basic magic book for him to study on his own.

Tony thought about it and decided to say directly: "To be honest, it doesn't take the same way, the casting requires materials, the casting conditions are harsh, the effect is not strong, and the most critical casting is the success rate ......"

"Stop, stop." Hikaru Oda hurriedly interrupted Tony's words, the Cthulhu spells are notoriously unreliable, but there are always exceptions to everything, such as: "It's good that you have learned that ordinary spells are unreliable, and what I want to teach you next is the spell of the God of All Machines." ”

"The God of Machines? What is it? The god of machines? Tony asked tentatively.

"Yes and no, have you ever been in a situation where something you were working on, but it didn't work even though there were no problems after you did it?"

Tony thought about it for a moment and realized that there really was: "Yes, there have been such cases. ”

"This is the soul of the machine represented by the god of all machines, the soul of the machine, and when the machine is born, the organic soul is born, and the machine soul is the root of the machine's action.

Another example is that sometimes even if the machine itself is crippled or has limited power, but at the call of the owner, sometimes they can move beyond their own limits, which is the spirit of the machine at work. ”

Oda Hikaru swore that he was talking about the soul of the machine, but in fact, this god of ten thousand machines was just rubbed out by him, and the god of ten thousand machines did not exist before this second.

However, he was confronted with Tony Stark, and he dared to question anyone (God) about knowledge: "To be honest, I very much doubt that you are fooling me, you just look like I fooled those shareholders, can you show me what this god of all machines looks like?" ”

", what does he think of the God of Ten Thousand Machines that I just made up, light, think about what that God of Ten Thousand Machines looks like, take out your professional qualities as a cartoonist, and set up people...... Pregnant! Although he thought a lot, but it was actually only for a moment, Oda tried to keep himself from laughing with a bare face, and then said, "Okay, open your eyes and try to see your gods!" ”

There is only one god that one person believes in and knows, and it is a god created specifically for this person, and suddenly this god feels so miserable.

There was a sudden change of scenery, and when Tony reacted, he had reached the edge of a steel planet, and Tony was standing in the void: "That's the case again, I can't say it in advance next time, I also want to see the gorgeous and magnificent scene, humans are visual animals!" ”

But complaining is complaining, Tony is not idle, his mouth is complaining while his eyes are observing the steel planet in front of him: "I take back what I just said, this guy is definitely the most magnificent scenery that belongs to me!" ’

Just watching the countless pieces of information begin to flow into Tony's brain, he couldn't help but marvel: "The diameter is 2 million kilometers, which is completely beyond the volume of the sun." Completely made of gears and levers! Is this a differential machine? No, this is an analysis machine. Nor is it a design that goes beyond those......"

"My Pope, don't look at the knowledge, it's beyond your limits." A gentle voice appeared in Tony's heart, and he always felt that this voice was very kind... It's Daddy's voice.

"Are you the god of all machines? Why do you call me Pope? ”

"I have been silently observing the development of man since I was born, and I am both the simplest and most complex machine, and it is not an exaggeration to call me the god of all machines.

As for why I called you Pope, it was because you were the first to contact me, so I gave you the highest status of Pope under me in the Mechanicus Cult, although you were the only one. The machine god was very honest about this embarrassing reality.

Tony didn't care about the title, though, what he wanted to know was, "What is the Cult of the Mechanicus?"

"I was originally just a combination of the concept of machine and machine soul, and suddenly one day someone gave me the name God of All Machines and started worshipping me, and so the Cult of the Machine God was born, but they couldn't reach me at all, so I didn't have my first believer until now."

"Wait, I see, the guy who really believes in you has deviated from science so he is just a pseudo-believer so he can't contact you, and the guy who doesn't believe in you doesn't deviate from science but can't see you because he doesn't believe in you... Suddenly I feel like you're miserable. "What happened to the Mekvan, even Tony felt so miserable.
