Volume 6: Secret Invasion Chapter 21 Your tragedy is the fault of this world! So, let's create a universe without sadness
Hei Qiyi was not surprised when Mason said he wanted to negotiate.
But Mason's next words struck Heiqi's soul straight. He put down his teacup and said:
"Do you still want to save your Christine?"
"Um?"
The pair of eyes, which were full of dark circles, looked up at Mason, with murderous intent surging in them, obviously because the young man mentioned the strange black taboo.
Some things can be written in a diary and can be read by others, but cannot be spoken about.
Especially when using it as a bargaining chip.
"If you want to use this as a conversation starter, it sucks."
Hei Qiyi put down the teacup and said in a low voice:
"But if your purpose is to provoke me, then congratulations, your attempt was very successful. Let me say a few more words, Mason Cooper. I suddenly feel that maybe we don't have to wait until six days to summon the evil god."
He snapped his fingers, and his domain changed instantly, bringing everyone to the depths of this secret place.
A permanent summoning ritual is flickering an evil light in the darkness.
As Mason watched, Black Qiy reached out his hand into the space and grabbed Harley, who was attracting the attention of the mages of the Sanctuary of the Holy, and was brought here out of thin air. She was then placed above the summoning ceremony while dancing.
Perhaps all Hei Qi needed to do was to think about it, and Mason's little cutie would be thrown into the ritual formation that had already been preheated and started as a sacrifice.
"You seem to lack understanding and empathy for my situation, Mason."
Black Strange was suspended in the air with his cloak swaying. He looked down at Mason and said:
"Perhaps I should let you experience what I once felt, like a hole in your heart, a void that can never be filled, a loss that drives you crazy, and every day for the rest of your life you see her face when she died ..."
"Sweetheart! Run!"
Harley, who was caught here, was still struggling in the air.
She swung the baseball bat wildly, trying to hit the invisible energy that bound her, but the increasingly hot sacrificial ceremony below, those lines flowing like magma, seemed to open a door to hell before her eyes.
Her drooping hair seemed almost singed.
There was still no expression of fear on Harry's face. She was just worried that if she died here, what would happen to Mr. K if no one took care of him in the future?
"She has you in her heart, and even the threat of death cannot shake her desire to protect you. It's really touching."
Hei Qiyi said sarcastically:
"The purer it is, the more painful it is to lose. Harley Quinn's life is on the line. I look forward to your next words even more."
"Absolutely on time!"
Mason stared at him and said seriously:
"I have read your diary repeatedly and carefully considered that you are only a certain point in time away from rescuing Christine."
"Wow!"
Harley exclaimed as she descended a bit in the air, getting closer and closer to the burning ceremony, which meant that Black Strange was not very satisfied with Mason's answer.
He said:
"Tell me something I don't know, thank you. You are wasting the little cutie's remaining time. If you really have nothing to say, why not say goodbye to her.
I can give you a few minutes.”
"The absolute time point is the support of the time network. When a timeline is determined, it is also determined. Any mistake will cause the collapse of the entire timeline, which will in turn affect the complex time network and cause a chain reaction."
Mason's tone remained unchanged, and he spoke calmly.
Behind him, Harley's position continued to fall, and the sacrifice ritual was activated. A strange phantom sound rang out from the lightless sea at the other end of the ritual, lingering in everyone's mind as if a thousand people were speaking at the same time.
The hunter held the Lake Lady's sword tightly, shining with golden light to protect her and the two people beside her. Zha Kang also cast a spell to release mental protection to ensure that they would not be affected by the words of the evil god.
Harley, who was closest to the ceremony, also had a puzzled expression on her face. She was the one with the least reaction among all the people, and even thought that the depraved sound coming from the ceremony was a little nice...
This is normal.
She is crazy.
Madmen are naturally immune to most mental magic and chaos effects.
"That's what I wrote in my diary..."
Hei Qiyi sneered and said:
"I don't need you to remind me that the study of absolute time has reached an irreversible stagnation and conflict, Mason, so stop stalling.
Shuma Golas has emerged from the Sunless Sea and is approaching the real plane. Your girlfriend is the best bait to lure it into the trap.
I suggest you think about her.”
"A big black squid jumped out."
Harley's exclamation made Zhakang and Ciri look back at the same time, and they saw dark tentacles emerging from the ritual formation.
It was like a monster from the deep sea emerging from the burning magma, and the words of corruption that attacked the soul were suddenly strengthened by more than ten times when the evil god's real body was about to emerge?
The spell of the Sword of the Lady of the Lake shone like a light bulb with poor contact, and the hat on Zha Kang's forehead also made a low whistle, reminding Mason to speed up.
"I have to say this first to get to what I want to say."
Mason's fists were clenched.
It would be an absolute slander to say that he didn't care about Harley's life, but he knew very well that only by being calm enough could he reach some deep cooperation agreement with Black Strange.
He was not deliberately provoking this dangerous guy, but he got to the heart of the matter from the beginning .
He looked up and said to Hei Qiyi:
"In the existing universe, countless absolute time points support the sacred timeline that runs through countless parallel worlds! It is the embodiment of the concept of 'time' in the entire universe system. You broke through the absolute time point in your world and caused the world to collapse. It's not because you did anything wrong, Strange.
It's just that your power is not enough. You can't shake the sacred timeline, so there is no way to truly reverse the future. It just trembles slightly because of your actions, and teaches you a lesson you will never forget.
You are too far away from the level that can distort the sacred timeline, and you know this, so you hide here and continue to study to make yourself stronger.
Isn't devouring the evil god also for the purpose of moving towards a higher level of life?
But you were wrong from the beginning!"
"Snap"
Harley, who was hovering above the rear formation as a sacrifice, swung the shining Isu baseball bat to knock away a tentacle that was reaching out to her, but soon more tentacles pounced on her.
It was like a hungry monster that finally found delicious bait and would not go back until it had a hearty meal.
"I can still hold on! Keep going, sweetheart! Leave me alone."
Harry has absolute confidence in Mr. K.
She shouted and swung her weapon, repelling the tentacles one by one. The wasteland venom symbiotically living in her body also transformed into more biological blades to chop at the increasing number of large and small evil tentacles below.
This is a serious evil thing.
Harley has no divinity and cannot resist the erosion of this thing at the existential level. If Black Strange really intends to use her as bait, then the moment the evil god Shuma Golas appears, the little cutie will be twisted into a monster.
She is still full of energy now. It must be that Hei Qiyi cast some kind of resistance magic on her.
This was enough to make Mason feel relieved.
He stared at the expressionless Dark Doctor Strange floating above him. He knew that the game between him and him had reached the most critical moment, so he paused, organized his tone, and said:
“This cosmic system is too old.
The sacred timeline it derived extends from the beginning of the era to the current era of destruction. It is impossible to overturn this timeline with your own strength, even if it is just the small node where Christine is bound to die.
You shouldn't try to fight it, Strange.
It's like Sisyphus pushing the stone, because you yourself are also part of the divine timeline, you can't fight against yourself, which will form a terrible time paradox.
You cannot explain yourself in a paradox, and the result can only be the collapse of your existence.
Christine was a victim of the Sorcerer Supreme's fate. She died because of you, which may explain why you would rather give up the whole world to bring her back.
Not just out of love, but also out of regret and self-loathing.
A friend of mine who's a big time expert once described it to me as "like throwing shit into a fan."
“A very vivid description…although a little disgusting.”
Hei Qiyi's dark-rimmed eyes stared at Mason and he said:
"Now that I've explained the reasons, I expect you to give me some advice instead of just finding fault with me. Let me remind you again that Shuma is very interested in your girlfriend because of her overly active performance.
In 30 seconds at most, it will risk being caught by me and float up to the material world. It has always been greedy and can't resist its suicidal curiosity."
"My solution is to give up this universe. There is no chance."
Mason cried:
“You don’t need to experience an impact event to sense that this cosmic era has entered its final stage of destruction. The tremors coming from the depths of the universe are its dying convulsions.
All the evil and bad things originated from this. Among all the doomsday thoughts, only my companions and I are a clear stream.
We are not committed to continuing the last life of this old universe. We want to take everyone across the singularity of destruction and enter the time when the next era begins.
And this is your last chance, Strange!
Even if you shake the sacred timeline and bring back Christine, you can only welcome the end of the era with her, but if you follow us, if we can step into the beginning of the next era.
In that singularity where everything began!
Strange, in the singularity where this sacred timeline has just collapsed and the next sacred timeline has not yet begun, at a moment when the concept of absolute time point does not exist!
You don't even need to pay more, just go back in time to bring Christine back to you! Then take her to the starting point of the next sacred timeline, let her enter the next era as alive, and make her existence immortal like you...
There is no time paradox!
There is no self-contradiction!
There is no need for a logically consistent explanation of existence.
In a singularity where even the concept of "time" does not exist, time itself is a building block toy that you can play with as you please, and you can completely build a perfect Christine for yourself.
But the prerequisite is that we have to enter that singularity, we have to defeat whoever is standing in our way, and most importantly, put my girlfriend down the fucking place!
I've given you a solution!
Your wife is dead but other people's lovers are still here, do something good for Dr. Christine , you bastard!"
Under Mason's almost shouting rebuke, Black Qiyi threw the screaming Harley out from the pack of wolves surrounded by the evil god's tentacles and landed accurately in Mason's arms with open arms.
She wasn't too frightened, but just felt really excited, and even had a smile on her face.
But the next moment, Mason hugged her tightly, and the strength of his arms entangled even made Harley feel suffocated, making her realize the fear in the little sweetheart's heart.
Just now, Mason almost lost her forever.
"Hey, it's okay, I'm back."
Harry patted Mr. K's back gently, comforting him as a victim. This scene was seen by Ciri who was standing next to him, making the old lady feel helpless.
She probably realized how she was inferior to Harry...
Although Mason has always maintained a fairly independent personality and style, in fact, he may also be a deeply hidden "anxious person". He also needs the unreserved love and companionship of Harley to soothe the anxiety hidden deep in his heart.
Tsk, Mason's emotional demands are really demanding.
He, Catwoman and Barbara are indeed not very suitable, only Harley Quinn, the Robin girl, is a natural match for him.
"You gave me a way. Although the probability of success is very small, it is at least a little comfort for a person in desperate situation. However, now, I still need you to do one last thing for me."
Hei Qiyi's hands crossed in front of him and turned into a dark ring of Raggador. He also grew eight more arms in the illusion forbidden spell in the shape of Akken. At the same time, he cast more than a dozen amplification and protective spells on the four people in front of him.
At this time, his dark territory was already shaking.
The big-eyed evil god that crawled out of the summoning ceremony was roaring and wanted to destroy this place. By the way, he pinned his old opponent to the ground and beat him up to avenge the bastard's "evil deed" of eating his tentacles several years ago.
In front of the evil god, all kinds of gorgeous or evil magic on Mason and the other three were dancing coolly. With the blessing of these magic amplifications, Mason felt that he could have a boxing match with Superman with his fists even without drinking the Superman potion.
And until this moment, he finally realized why Hei Qiyi wanted to imprison Zha Kang...
This guy needs help!
He alone is no match for the evil god Shuma Golas, and he needs some collaborators who will not hold him back, because both he and Ciri, who were lured here by Zhakang's imprisonment, are willing fish.
From then on, the five people finally formed an "evil god fighting team."
"You really are a great fisherman!"
Mason unscrewed the cap of the improved Superman drug and complained to the black strange who was transformed into the appearance of an evil god beside him:
"But I'm curious, if we don't fall for it, if we don't come to rescue Zha Kang, how are you going to deal with this evil god you brought here?"
"Oh, look at your bad questions and poor wisdom."
Hei Qiyi's twisted face with seven eyes on its forehead showed a terrifying smile, and he said in a deep voice:
"You might as well guess why I hid my domain in the Holy of Holies of this world? Kamar-Taj here is not as powerful as my hometown, but the good news is that they also have some power, although not much.
He may not be qualified to be a teammate, but he is more than qualified to be a cannon fodder.
I have a chance of swallowing Shuma Golas, it's just a matter of casualties. You see, Mason, I said at the beginning that whether the outside world is dead or alive has nothing to do with me.
I gave all my warmth to Christine and had no warmth left for anyone else."
"But we can't work for you for nothing!"
Zha Kang realized that Hei Qiyi had changed from an "enemy" to a "temporary companion", so he boldly complained:
"You have to pay for work, old sport."
"How about I take out all the magic you stole from me? It only requires a small craniotomy..."
Hei Qiyi glanced at Zha Kang, and the latter immediately backed down.
"As for you, my friend."
As Shuma Golas, the evil god from the Lightless Sea, completely jumped into the realm of darkness, and in the background of the terrifying phantom of waving thousands of tentacles in this dark land, Hei Qiyi looked at the hunter Ciri again, looked her up and down, and said:
“You sold your soul to the devil. This is not a good deal. You are hopeless, just like me back then. But you see, as a senior who has embarked on the path of evil, I may be able to give you a crooked way to go.
How about it?
Is this price appropriate, everyone? "
