Chapter 377: Avengers 2: Civil War (Part I)
In the empty and dark universe, the light of the stars is like a twinkling lighthouse above the harbor, and in front of a hot orange-red ball of light, a few small black dots fly past the particles of the sun, cutting through the storm around the star, bringing wavy ripples.
The star has a visible energy field around it, like a surging ocean tide, and as the ripples ripple away, the small black dots slowly move away from the planet, and as they get closer, they can be seen as several octopus-like spaceships.
The front half of the ship is an oval cargo compartment, while the back half is divided into several more slender tentacles, where the main control room is located, and in the control room of the ship, several crew members with monster heads are complaining.
"I don't know what the Governor thinks, the security case on the surface still has to be solved by the stellar mining team, he has lifted the agreement to fire on the surface, and we may have to shoot at the city with the muzzle of the cannon later, in case the capital planet knows, we may be executed!"
Another monster taller than him patted him on the shoulder and said, "You also know that there are not enough parasitic spare bodies lately, you see, this body of yours has almost rotted, only the Governor has the right to allocate the quota of the body, we will work hard for him, maybe we will be able to get a new body next month." ”
"I've heard that the high-level agent has lowered the threshold for spare parasites, maybe, there will be a steady stream of bodies available for us to use soon, forget it, let's go back as soon as possible, lest something really go wrong in the city on the surface."
At this moment, a sharp alarm sounded, and the gathered monster leaders looked left and right, and one of them walked quickly to the wall, picked up the communicator hanging on the wall and asked, "What's the matter?" Why did the cargo ship call the police? Oh shit! What is that? ”
As soon as he looked out of the observation window of the spaceship, he saw an incomparably large strange spaceship, floating quietly in front of them, like a giant shark that chooses to devour people.
The monster head was stunned with the communicator in his hand, and at this time, the governor's somewhat angry voice came from the ship's radio system: "Quickly organize a fire counterattack!" What about your professionalism?! ”
The monster head holding the communicator was a little shaky, but he still put down the things in his hand as soon as possible, and then turned around and walked back to the control room, the pilot of the spaceship was already busy in front of the operation panel, and the monster head who walked in glanced left and right, and said, "Quickly open the defensive shield!" Their muzzles are already recharged, and I'm afraid they'll be ...... soon"
Suddenly, a silent and intense light engulfed the entire control room, and almost instantly, all the tentacles of the octopus spaceship, including the Brudes inside, all disappeared between the astonishing heat and particle collision.
In the governor's office, Stark looked at the panel on his arm, and Jarvis's voice rang in his ears:
"The firing is complete, and a total of two spaceships and four secondary guns have been used in this attack, and the opponent's spacecraft has been completely annihilated."
"The firing ship has returned to its position, the muzzle is cooling, and the next firing time is expected, ...... in 3 minutes and 31 seconds"
Stark looked at the blue-faced governor across from him and said, "You know what? The hardest thing just now is to control the low power output of our secondary guns so as not to break you too much. ”
The tentacles on the governor's face trembled a little, but he still said very strongly, "Do you humans really want to go to war with Bruder?!" ”
"I've just contacted our capital planet, they're sending troops here, you're going to face Brude's endless fleet army!!"
"But you won't see that day anymore." As he spoke, Stark floated up, flew into the air, opened the muzzle of the cannon on his handarmour, and a "whoosh" ray hit the governor.
The Governor with the monster's head dodged in panic, quickly rounded the table, ran to the wall on the other side, smashed open the storage cabinet on the wall, and removed the weapon inside.
It was a hand cannon with a large-diameter muzzle, which the Governor hastily armed to his arm, and then opened fire on Iron Man's suit, the energy converging on the muzzle, making a slight humming sound, followed by a violent explosion.
The entire office was blown up by the cannonball's shells, but Stark maneuvered his suit to nimbly avoid the aftermath of the explosion and chased after the governor who tried to escape.
The ballistic missile was constantly chasing the figure of the monster's head, and no matter how he dodged, there was always a missile that could catch up with him and detonate around him, knocking him over.
Standing on the edge of the tall building and looking down, the rain had soaked the streets, the humid air had penetrated into his lungs, the Governor had never lived in such a humid environment, and he felt the hazy mist obscure his eyes, and his thoughts began to become confused.
In the flickering light of neon, the familiar smiling mask appeared again on the screen of the building opposite, as if he could see it, and he said, "The one who is being chased is like a lost dog, huh?" Did you think of this day when you chased the panicked humans who fled? ”
He took a few steps back, revealing a scene behind him, a control room that was somewhat familiar to the Governor, with a lot of control panels and monitoring equipment, and the man in the clown mask let out a series of laughs before saying:
"You think my first stop here was the TV station? But that's just what I told you, and you actually believed it. ”
"I introduced myself there and told you guys that I had just come here, but actually, I had just come from another place......"
"Where is this?" The man put his hand behind his ear and made a listening gesture, and the Governor whispered, "Weather Control Tower...... You lunatic! You really made this hell weather! ”
The people on the screen should not be able to hear the Governor, but he seemed to anticipate what the Governor would say, and he said, "That's right, it's where you control the weather!" ”
"You've developed this planet so much that you can control the water cycle on the surface, and I did me a small favor by subduing the staff here......"
"Look up at the sky, and look at those beautiful crystal raindrops, like salt grains sprinkled in a salt shaker?"
"Do you smell that haunting aroma of wine? That's from the other side, the deepest chaos and madness......"
His tone began to soften, as if he were reciting a romantic poem or an elegy for requiem, and the clown-masked man straightened up and took a few steps back, revealing another black figure on the screen.
He turned and walked back, stood face to face with the man with bat ears, and asked him, "When good and evil, order and chaos begin to reverse, when a madman is doing something righteous with his crazy brain, how can you tell who is evil?" ”
"Behold, the monsters that go about in the dark streets, they are shameless worms, stealing human bodies, parasiting them, killing them, controlling them......
"But the ordinary people you swore to protect, their mindset that was obeyed by order, are these worms......"
"Did you see that? They infiltrate human bodies, manipulate their thoughts and actions, and make them commit heinous and despicable acts, and I, the poor madman you call it, ......"
"I'm their savior, I'm driving those ugly and vile bugs out of their bodies, see? Like this......"
The fire shone through the raindrop-stained windows, another building was set on fire, and a man with a monster's head cracked his mouth and seemed to be about to burst out laughing.
Looking at this crazy scene in front of them, the aborigines here did not feel frightened, they slowly gathered around, watching the rising fire, the pleasure of destroying the order, taking root in everyone's hearts, the illusion of freedom, made them feel happy.
In a trance, Eddie saw that all this was his delusion, those so-called monster heads, in fact, did not have a terrifying monster face, they were just a group of ordinary people, but the pleasure generated in the sin made their faces twist and turn into monsters.
He shook his head vigorously, but Venom said in a hoarse voice, "Because evil always happens in order, let everything return to disorder and chaos, do you think you are doing justice?" No, you're just venting your madness......"
"Are you going to save them? Put it all back in order, just like you've done countless times...... Are these people really worth saving? ”
Through Eddie Bullock's eyes, he could see the waves of the sea, and unlike the breathtaking light of the stars, the black ocean was quiet and distant, but there was no end in sight.
Like a sea breeze, it swept across the surface of the sea to the distant shore, where another soul stood on the beach.
His gaze seemed to pass through the distant space, through the barriers of the world, and saw the group of monsters with their heads and bodies like ordinary people, but he saw a deeper philosophical meaning in them, and also heard those crazy words.
"Humans are parasitic monsters by the mind, and they can't completely control their bodies, what do you want to save, is it their body or soul, which one is worth saving? Which is the justice that is worth serving? ”
Eddie saw the man in the clown mask slowly walk to a broken window, and the rain was blown into the window, creating a hazy mist around him, and when the light shone on it, the hazy light of his voice spread out together.
"The human body can be healed, but their thinking is difficult to change, their situation can be changed, but there is no chance for nature to be rewritten......"
"In the process of the universe falling into chaos, creating a shelter to protect the flesh will not change anything......"
Eddie heard a series of laughs again, but it gradually turned from madness to, and he saw the man with his arms outstretched in front of the window, and behind him was the blazing night sky.
Suddenly, he fell silent, then grinned and pulled a button out of his pocket and said, "What did I just say?" My first stop on this planet was a weather control tower? …… No, no, no, I'm sorry I lied to you, but I did it as a last resort......"
As he spoke, he looked at the camera again, he raised the button in his hand, and said, "Guess where I planted a big bomb?" ”
At this time, on the roof of the high building in the governor's office, Stark, who also heard this sentence, ran away.
But he was still a step too late, and the aftermath of the violent explosion directly shook him out, and after stabilizing his body in mid-air, Stark, pressed his hand on the visor and said, "This damn madman! I've long said he's a little out of sorts! ”
Just then, Jarvis's voice came: "Warning! High energy readings are detected, positioning is neutral...... 1,328 meters underground, it is rising rapidly, take shelter immediately! Dodge now! ”
"900 meters...... 500 m ...... 300 meters ......"
Stark directly pulled the mecha up to a height of several thousand meters, and in his field of vision, a huge tentacle broke through the ground, followed by an endless sea of tentacles, and soon, a behemoth crawled up from the ground.
Stark narrowed his eyes and said, "Hive ......"
