Chapter 9 Entering the Cult of My God
Standing atop the Statue of Liberty, Aang looked down at the ruins, stretching from the harbor of New York to the Hudson River estuary, where broken concrete and tumbling earth mingled into a wasteland dotted with broken rocks, messy steel, and corpses. Everything that was once on the land is gone, the army, the agents, the bunkers and the building......
Buried beneath billions of tons of dirt, they were swept up in millstones made of concrete and rock, shattering bones and flesh seeping out of the dirt, staining the ground a dark red.
In the palm of his hand, Chen Ang wiped out the elite of nearly four layers of S.H.I.E.L.D.!
There are many excellent agents and soldiers, who fight with the hope of victory, but the only thing they gain is death.
Standing above freedom, trampling on honor and faith, Chen Ang surrounded him with death and despair, and suffocating grief permeated the battlefield. Although there is only one combat object, this conflict has gone beyond the scope of 'crime' or even 'attack', but is a war.
The war of one man and one nation.
On the opposite side, around the battlefield, the citizens of New York, who had seen the war, felt a surging shock hit them, and the Pentagon, which was monitored by satellites and electronic devices, was also dead silent. When the mud pillar rose into the sky, the whole of New York saw it, and when it hit the ground, the whole city felt it.
A big rock hand lifted the huge concrete slab buried in his head, the stone man used his body to protect Sue and climbed back to the ground, Mr. Fantastic came out from the other side, and the thunderbolt flew back, looking at this tragic battlefield, he suddenly lost his voice.
"Oh God!" Sue covered her mouth.
"Call me?" Chen Ang floated up to them.
"What did we do? What did you do again? Mr. Fantastic Reid looked around in horror, and he asked with a trembling voice, "What do you see?" Is this what you want? ”
"Yes!" Chen Ang replied calmly: "Maybe you think I'm a butcher, but from my point of view. None of this is something hard to accept. Does life deserve respect? Of course, it is worthy of respect, but for me, life does not mean physical survival, but another more essential expression. ”
"Death is just a cycle of life, and it does not need the slightest cover-up, hypocrisy and darkness. They're just embarking on a journey of life. ”
"But you killed them!" Reed was furious, "You killed thousands of people who had lovers. Soldiers with children, you personally destroyed the happiness of thousands of families. ”
"It's a pity, but does it mean anything special to me?" Chen Ang asked with his head sideways, and he manipulated gravity to push away the mound of dirt beside him, revealing a young face. "In nature, trees grow and die, do you feel annoyed that you pick a flower early? It will grow again the next season. Life is the same! ”
The young corpse buried in the dirt suddenly coughed violently, and he struggled to get out of the ground, staring blankly at everything in front of him. When he saw Chen Aang's iconic mask, he raised the automatic rifle in his hand in surprise.
"Does time make sense?" Chen Ang shook his head and said.
"Nope!" The wound on the resurrected soldier's face quickly disappeared, and he became younger, and he looked at the rifle in his hand in surprise, as if he couldn't understand why he was wearing a military uniform.
"Is death worth fearing?"
"It's not worth it!" The soldier's height suddenly shrank, he looked as immature as a high school student, his eyes were peculiar to young people's unruliness, and some swear tattoos appeared on his arms.
"If the reality of the world is presented to you. You will find that life is like a small segment of a timeline. One point above is gone, and it means nothing to the whole life! Chen Ang looked into Reed's eyes and suddenly asked, "Since you feel guilty, uneasy, and remorseful because of this, then I will give you a chance." ”
A pop-up appeared in front of Reed.
Whether to read the archive
"Select 'Yes'. Then it's all back to the way it was before. Everything will go back to where it was three days ago, and so will your memories. Chen Ang pointed to his head and said, "'yes' or 'no'." ”
Reed had seen the young soldier go back to his childhood, he was wearing a huge military uniform, his little face was full of dazedness, and he looked like he was only seven or eight years old. And then five or six, three or four, and finally a baby -- and disappeared where it was. He stood in front of the pop-up window at a loss, and the world suddenly had a huge sense of unreality.
This huge sense of alienation seemed to drain him, even the voice of his girlfriend around him was not real, he was in a trance, confused, and always felt that a voice in his heart said to him: "Eleventh time!" ”
"Reed!" The voice of his girlfriend in his ears seemed to come from outside the sky, distorted.
I don't know where to bring an extreme impulse, he slapped the 'no' option hard, and his expression was hideous and terrifying, even scaring Sue.
"Reed! Reed, sober up and don't look into that demon's eyes. Sue held Reed's head.
"You've chosen eleven times, has it finally changed this time?" Chen Ang nodded.
"What eleven times?" Reed pushed Sue's support away, "You mean the timeline has been adjusted eleven times?" Are you saying that I once went back in time and stood here again to make the same choice? Over and over? Until now! You can't fool me, you can't fool me, it's not scientific! Reed growled.
"It is impossible for people to go back in time!" Reed's face was gloomy and terrifying, and he said categorically.
"No, this world is different." Chen Ang wore a mask, and his tone was unusually calm.
Reed's face was hideously terrifying, and he was completely destroyed. Su hugged him tightly and kept reminding: "Don't look at his eyes, don't look at his eyes, everything is just an illusion!" Don't fall into his trap! ”
"Did you see that option window?" Reed asked her in surprise.
"What options window?" Su was stunned for a moment, and when she came to her senses, she put her forehead against Reed's head and said softly, "Don't believe what you see, don't believe your memory, don't believe the words of that demon!" Trust me! ”
After a long while, Reed calmed down, he kissed Sue tenderly, and whispered, "I believe in you!" Sue excitedly hugged Reid in her arms and sobbed, "You finally defeated him." Do you know what, I'm so scared! That man was playing with us like a demon, and you were like a demon just now. ”
Reed hugged Sue, but whispered in his heart, "I'm sorry, Sue." It wasn't him who failed, it was me, and I was defeated by him. I have to find the truth of the matter, or I will fail for the rest of my life. ”
"He is not destroying, nor is he fighting us. He is choosing time, he is creating the world, he knows his influence on the outcome and direction of this world, he is controlling the world, for our past, present, and future, in his eyes it is just a world line, a process and result that can be controlled. ”
"I'm sorry Sue, I don't allow our world to be like a game that can be read at will, playing with it in his hands! Nor is it permissible for him to deny the meaning of our existence and the dignity of life. Even if he does, he wants to think like this, and I will fight to the end! For the sake of our free existence......"
"I will fall into the darkness, seek, yearn for the light!"
Reed let go of his hand and slashed at the back of her neck.
Sue rolled her eyes and fainted into Reed's arms, "Reed, what are you doing?" Thunderbolt was shocked. Reed put Sue into his hands and sneered, "Go back!" You ants! ”
"Reed!" The stone man was crazy and wanted to rush forward, but he was restrained in place by the huge gravity. Reed walked behind Chen Ang step by step, silently looking at his former companion, the blue Fantastic Four uniform gradually stained with darkness, and the deep black fabric spread down his shoulders, dragging a long cloak behind him.
The former Mr. Fantastic Reed, wrapped in a gloomy black robe, stood behind Chen Ang and looked at his companion indifferently.
"God-king! S.H.I.E.L.D. has another aftermath! Reed explained to Aang, "In order to deal with you, they brought in Pym, the former founder of S.H.I.E.L.D., and Tony. Together, Stark is working on a new weapon against Skynet. Now that the whole of New York is aware of the action, there will be a lot of superheroes coming. ”
"If you can join my Doomsday God Sect, you are really a talent!" Chen Ang approvingly.
"As for your ......," Chen Ang looked back at the remaining three superheroes, "that is, he refuses to join the religion and refuses to die, which makes me very embarrassed!" (To be continued......)
