28. The return gift of the Swallowing Star --- for the Shuisheng brothers [6/10]
Iago's screams rang out as the crunching sound resounded through the stardom, and the divine power of the planet's life escaped to try to save itself from the mouth of this terrifying being, but its tentacles of divine power slapped against the teeth of the star-swallowing star, only making the cosmic god's enjoyment of the food more vibrant.
Just like eating sashimi, the thin slices of meat from live fish like cicada wings, each one contains the most simple breath of life, and the fresh taste is always memorable.
Of course, not everyone can watch this horrific scene without changing their faces, little Groot, who was sitting on Cyber's shoulder, covered his eyes in horror, obviously, he knew what Swallowing Star was doing, his body was trembling, obviously frightened by this scene.
And the other people on the starship couldn't help but turn their heads, even the rocket raccoon who hated Igo to the extreme, also had a relative, such a death, absolutely no one could bear it, the raccoon could swear that if one day, he also fell into such a situation, he would rather be hacked to death with an axe than endure such an extremely terrible crazy experience.
And after Igo broke away from the Igo Star and ran towards his death, the speed of the Igo Star disintegration and collapse became faster, after the collapse of the earth's core that had a strong attraction and bound the ground, the entire planet pierced by Cyber was in a blind rotation, like a hard-boiled egg, under the rotation, the shell was peeled off layer by layer, revealing the core existence inside.
"It's over!"
Thanos's mechanical adoptive nebula looked at the planet that was rapidly shrinking in size and constantly collapsing, and she walked into the cabin without looking back, there was nothing to see, this planet would eventually disintegrate into a belt of rubble of trance galaxies all over the edge of the galaxy, and become a ghost gate to harvest the lives of starships that accidentally broke into this area, and it was destined to become another dangerous place among the infinite stars.
Igo, a rare planetary life, also put an end to its existence that has spread for millions of years in this way.
Cyber watched as Igo's Star annihilated itself in the flickering flames, and after Igo's last scream, the entire Dark Nebula fell silent, shook his head, turned and flew towards his ship, intending to leave, when another voice sounded behind him.
"Cyber Hawk!"
Silver Surfer Norlin Ryder's body stepped on his distinctive silver skateboard and appeared like light behind Cyber, and he said in a deep voice:
"Master, please go and talk to Phoenix in his throne!"
"Huh?"
Cyber's figure stopped in place, he looked back at Silver Surfer, some of the thoughts of swallowing stars, the scene just now still lingered in his mind, if Swallowing stars suddenly changed his appetite and began to be interested in flesh and blood life, even if there was a phoenix, it would be difficult for him to get out of that power.
"Go ahead! It's fine. ”
Phoenix's voice rang out in Cyber's ears: "After satisfying the body's craving for food, Swallowing Star will become quiet and wise, he can become a cosmic god, not only by the power of madness, in this case, he can communicate... And unusually generous. ”
"Hmm. ”
Cyber nodded, he looked at the Silver Shadow in front of him, and whispered, "Then lead the way!"
"Please follow me, distinguished guests!"
Norin leaned over slightly, manipulating the silver skateboard and rushing towards the Star Swallowing Throne suspended between the stars, the ship about the size of a planet, Cyber followed behind him, the dark blue flames formed a bright starry sky wings behind him, and a slight flap was enough for him to move forward at super speed, and it was easy to keep up with the pace of the Silver Surfer.
And after passing through the thick mountain halo, Cyber stood on the deck of the ship.
To his surprise, there was no enclosed structure at all, and if I had to describe it, it was like a heavy oval platform suspended in the light, and at the top of the platform was an obsidian throne made of a cooled stellar core, on which a tall giant reclined and supported his chin with his left hand, looking with interest at Cyber, the strange visitor.
He was wearing armor, but he didn't know if it was the color of the armor or the color of his skin, in short, the human form of the Star Swallower was a purple creature with a strange double L-shaped high hat, and his cheeks looked like a human figure, but frankly, after seeing the infinite magic of the universe, Cyber would not simply think that this was the original form of the Star Swallower.
According to Phoenix's description, this is just the embodiment of the consciousness of Swallowing Stars, his true body, should still be sleeping under this throne, no one will want Swallowing Stars to really wake up, because that means a catastrophe that sweeps across the universe, so any reasonable person will not be willing to anger Swallowing Stars, he is really, too dangerous.
"Phoenix, the last time we met, it was on the edge of this multiverse, and at that time, you chose the host, which seemed to be a female low-dimensional creature..."
Swallowing Star spoke, and the deep voice rolled into a storm around his mouth, but it did not affect Cyber who was standing there, and Swallowing Star chose to catch up with Phoenix, which did not exceed Cyber's expectations, and he would not think that this was a contempt for himself.
In the final analysis, in front of this kind of character, even Cyber himself has to admit that he doesn't seem to be qualified to be on an equal footing with Swallowing Star, and if he really has that idea, he is really out of his mind.
"You still remember the events of hundreds of years ago so clearly!"
Phoenix made no secret of her disdain, and she sneered, "It seems that you really have a boring life. ”
"Boring? no, no, no"
Swallowing Star waved his hand, and the space around the ship was disturbed by this unconscious movement, but it soon calmed down, and the cosmic deity said very seriously:
"Finding food, replenishing strength, waiting for the final moment is a mission that I carry on my shoulders, and I don't find it boring. ”
"But you, Phoenix, are you still on your impossible journey? You see, even you and I, we still can't get rid of the shackles of our own fate, like drowning people caught in it, and can only move slowly according to what has been arranged..."
"So you haven't seen you for hundreds of years, and you have learned a new philosophy of life from eating?"
The phoenix interrupted the poetic description of Swallowing Star with sharp teeth, and she said directly:
"My journey has opened up a new possibility, and I don't hesitate to try it, and speaking of which, is that what you called me here to say? If so, it confirms what I just said, you are really boring!"
"Huh"
Swallowing Star was not ashamed, he smiled in a low voice: "Say whatever you want, anyway, the meaning and existence of you and me are the same, you yourself know in your heart, I am not wrong, as for this meeting, I am more curious about your new host." ”
As he spoke, his eyes and attention were focused on Cyber, and at this moment, the terrifying pressure was exerted on Cyber's shoulders in vain, giving him a tendency to half-kneel on the ground, but he was quickly forcibly suppressed by himself.
"I smell something familiar in you, Seber Hawke!"
Swallowing Star whispered:
"The place you came from used to be one of the best meals I had planned, but unfortunately I slept too deeply, and was sent here by two rats in a cunning way, but that's nothing, since you missed it, just wait for the next chance, if my occasional roaming approach to your world, then you have to find a way to stop me from eating it... With your current strength, though, it may be difficult for you to do that. ”
"If that happens, I'll give it a try. ”
Sebo replied without humility or arrogance, "Maybe I will be blessed with luck? ”
"Hehe, funny little one. ”
Swallowing Star rubbed his chin with his fingers, he pursed his lips, as if to savor the taste just now, and after a moment, he said:
"You have brought me a good appetite that I haven't had for thousands of years, I can't wait to taste the dessert after the meal again, this little life named Igo has used his wisdom to create a lot of spare bodies for him, many of which have been transformed, I suddenly found that I like this slightly sweet taste, just like the refreshing spring water in the summer in my memory..."
As he spoke, Swallowing Star fell silent, and even the air around him became gloomy, and after more than ten seconds, he waved his hand violently, and the space around Cyber changed in vain, and the whole person had returned to the dark and cold stars, and the ship in front of him like a planet suddenly disappeared.
Apparently, he had gone elsewhere to find the planet that Igo had transformed.
"Alas, lonely souls bound to ancient hatreds and memories..."
The phoenix's voice sounded in Cyber's heart, as if he was lamenting the unknown past of the Star Swallower, and after this emotion, the Phoenix's will also quietly converged, leaving only Cyber standing there, he looked in the direction of the Star Swallowing Star's disappearance, where the entangled and distorted space hovered in place in a hideous turbulent posture, and it would probably take decades to subside.
The silver light lit up in front of his eyes, Silver Surfer stepped on his skateboard, he took a deep look at Cyber, and then threw something out of his hand, Cyber subconsciously took it in his hand, and then found that it was a crystal clear, smooth core with countless facets like diamonds, and between the shaking of his fingers, it bloomed with thousands of lights.
"The host said that in your low-dimensional civilization, you have to tip when you go to a restaurant to finish a delicious meal... That's a tip from your host, Seber Hawke. ”
Silver Surfer's body rose in the air, and he should have turned away immediately, but he hesitated here for a moment, and finally, when he turned to leave, a deep voice came into Cyber's ear:
"I've seen at the edge of the galaxy how desperately the mage fights, she's supposed to be a great person... Protect your world and don't let her down. ”
Cyber nodded, watching Silver Surfer flash into the chaotic spatial turbulence, he looked down at the strange diamond in his hand, and a smile appeared on his lips.
"Of course it won't disappoint..."
"Buzz"
His figure tore through the space and appeared in the splendid golden ship, and Seb sat on the throne, looking back at the empty stars one last time, and then he whispered:
"Let's go, then. ”
"Go to the black market!"
It was a long journey from the edge of the galaxy to the black market, and because he was not in a hurry, Cyber did not use the extreme means of multiple space jumps in a row, and the return journey became slower than when he came, except for the rocket raccoon who was playing with the little tree man, everyone else was thinking about their choices in this journey, and some people had already made their choices.
"Ding"
The closed chamber door opened, and Nebula, with a hint of trepidation, stepped onto the disc of Cyber's Golden Throne, and the moment she stepped into it, the Evil Lord who was guarding her left and right swung her weapon and stopped her in the path to the throne.
"Let her come here!"
Cyber's voice came, and the two sculpture-like evil lords withdrew their huge battle axes, Nebula stepped forward, she looked at Cyber, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke:
"I heard Gamora say that you would protect her, away from the clutches of Thanos?"
"Yes, it does. ”
Cyber snorted: "Your sister did what she promised me, and although the result was a bit bad, she did at least do her best, so why should I break my word?"
"I... I'm joining your legion too!"
Nebula gritted his teeth and said, "I can give my loyalty, more than Gamora!"
"Oh?"
Cyber looked at Nebula with a scrutinizing gaze, and after a moment, he asked in a deep voice, "And you... What do you want from me?"
Hearing this question, Nebula raised her head, and her face, which had been transformed into a mechanical prosthetic, showed a hint of hideousness and longing:
"I want to... I want to change from this monster body to a normal person!"
"I also want to get out of the terrifying shadow of Thanos!"
"I also want to multiply the pain he brought to me with my own hands, multiply it tenfold, and give it back to him!"
"Wow!"
Cyber let out a sigh of emotion: "What greed... But you see, Nebula, your loyalty means nothing to me, Gamora was able to join the Legion because she proved her worth, and you need to prove yourself as well..."
"Obsidian Five Generals!"
Nebula whispered, "The five most powerful generals under Thanos! I will bring back the head of one of them! I will prove that I am better than Gamora!"
"Sounds like some outdated combination... But if you insist on doing so, I'm looking forward to the loyalty you bring back to me..."
Cyber crossed his fingers, scrutinizing the defector in front of him like a proud king, and finally, with a swipe of his left hand forward, a dark chasm appeared beside the nebula:
"I'll fulfill your first request... If you prove yourself, I'll give you the chance to fulfill the remaining two requirements... Go, go to hell, and there, you will get what you want, the perfect body!"
