Marvel: I Awake the Little Cosmos-Chapter 605 - 574: Scaring Ourselves

Tiam!

A Celestial, though born of the Celestial God Team, unlike other Celestials, can truly be described as untainted by the mud.

This is a Celestial who has transcended lowly interests.

In terms of actions, not intentions, no matter what, at the pivotal moment when Tiam was supposed to emerge, and could have completely emerged, Tiam resolutely assisted Sesi of the Eternal Race in sealing himself.

By self-sealing, he prevented Earth from shattering into countless fragments.

Although this is not Hawk’s original Cosmos, much less the Mutant Cosmos where he communicated with, and turned Tiam into his own God of Order.

But the cosmos is universal, at least in the Marvel Multiverse, the narrative about Tiam is universal.

So——

At the time, when Hawk was leaving the 616 Cosmos, worried that his intervention might lead to some uncontrollable change, he informed The Avengers that their next destruction crisis originated from a lifeform incubating beneath Skull Island.

Clearly.

Tony Stark and others went to Skull Island, but it was precisely because of going to Skull Island that they found a place to settle in this fragmented world.

As for why the Scarlet Witch and Black Hawke, who were created by Creator Celestial Sella, as well as the Eternal Race now under Black Hawke’s command, dared not go to Skull Island to attack Tony and others, the reason is quite simple.

They are products.

Whether it’s the Scarlet Witch here, or Black Hawke, or the Eternal Race people here, they are all products created by the Celestial God Team.

The Celestial God Team is the master of these products.

Tiam as well.

Even if Tiam has not yet emerged, a master is a master; once these products created by the Celestial God Team come to Skull Island, it can be described in one phrase.

Court death.

Right now, because Tiam has not yet emerged, Tiam can’t do anything to them, but if they go to Skull Island, they would be on Tiam’s turf. By then, under Tiam’s pressure, they would have no choice but to explode themselves.

Certainly.

Creator Celestial Sella would definitely not sit idle and watch this happen, but he has no better solution.

After all, Tiam is determined to be the rebel of the Celestial God Team, and there is a setting in the Celestial God Team’s program that they cannot attack their kind.

Therefore, even the Creator hiding behind the scenes, Sella, can only strictly order his products not to approach Skull Island.

But if they don’t step in, can repeatedly defeated Hydra destroy The Avengers, who have now relocated their base to Skull Island?

Ha ha.

That’s a joke.

If it were Hydra during Alexander Pierce’s time, maybe they would still have that power. After all, under Alexander Pierce, Hydra was the closest it’s ever been to almost overturning the world. If the Hydra Agent in the elevator back then had been a bit more capable, Hydra’s algorithm would have already gone airborne.

But Alexander Pierce is dead now.

So——

"Friday detected last month, Hydra even attempted to use a nuclear bomb to obliterate us."

"Unfortunately, it failed."

"Because of Skull Island’s geographic environment, a nuclear bomb couldn’t accurately target Skull Island, and they couldn’t bypass the now Tony-modified ring of storms surrounding the island."

Natasha told Hawk about the current situation on Skull Island, smirking when she mentioned Hydra’s attempt to use a nuclear bomb to eliminate them.

After listening, Hawk also laughed a bit, then thought of the topic he discussed with Andy on the way here: "By the way, Andy said that your coming here might be related to a prophecy spreading within the Resistance Army?"

Upon hearing this, Natasha nodded.

"Yes."

"I didn’t expect you to believe in prophecies."

"Because I was the one who made up this prophecy."

"..."

Hawk had contemplated many answers, even speculated on what this so-called prophecy might be.

But he never expected to hear this answer from Natasha.

Made up.

However, just as Hawk found himself speechless, a thought crossed his mind, and he understood Natasha’s intention.

"You want the Resistance Army not to lose hope?"

"Exactly."

Natasha said: "Nowadays, except for the East and parts of the Federation, Hydra’s clutches have almost covered the entire world. These Resistance Army soldiers are in difficult situations, so they need a belief, just like the Captain America who stood as that belief back then."

Hawk nodded.

No matter who the true hero was in World War II in reality, here, the hero of World War II is Captain America.

The sudden appearance of Captain America reversed the situation with a loud shout and slashed off one of Hydra’s heads.

The saying ’a single skill that conquers all’ applies.

Having tasted success once, of course, the tried and true method would be used again instead of opting for a new, untested one.

It’s just...

Hawk looked at Natasha with curiosity: "I heard the Federation government chose to surrender after you left."

Natasha shook her head again.

Hawk raised an eyebrow: "Wrong again?"

Okay.

Andy is only someone who moved here after the extinction event and built a small-scale resistance army with the local survivors.

Moreover, when Hawk learned from Andy that he didn’t know him, he couldn’t fully trust Andy’s words, only maintaining a somewhat skeptical perspective.

So Hawk was already somewhat prepared when he saw Natasha shaking her head again.

After shaking her head, Natasha looked at Hawk.

"It wasn’t that they surrendered after we left; it was because of their inside and outside collusion that we had to flee New York City so disgracefully under Dr. Bruce Banner’s sacrifice," she said.

"The federal government... surrendered?"

Listening to the truth spoken by Natasha, Hawk opened his mouth and then shook his head speechlessly.

"Why am I not surprised at all by this?"

"Because there are still many HYDRA in the federal government."

Natasha said, "We once thought HYDRA’s people were just the remnants of the last defeat. To our surprise, those that had previously been persecuted were the true HYDRA elements we had always been searching for but had never found."

Hawk wasn’t surprised at all.

"Squid don’t have bones, and there are many ways to cook them, isn’t strange."

"Indeed."

Listening to these words of comfort, Natasha smiled and then turned her gaze to Black Hawke, mentioning: "By the way, Hawk, this resurrected Black Hawke by the Scarlet Witch seems to be plotting something."

Though under the Scarlet Witch, they have no way of infiltrating the current HYDRA.

Yet, they are not completely without information sources.

Friday, the AI that Tony Stark created following Jarvis, was released onto the internet by Tony in the last moments of New York City’s fall.

Let’s put it this way.

Friday now is akin to Ultron.

However, it’s a gender-swapped Ultron with a kind personality, and precisely because of this, Natasha and the others can learn some internal matters of HYDRA from Friday.

Although most of this information is not very important, when summarized, these minor details can be significant in the eyes of professional intelligence analysts.

Indeed.

Tony and the others have reached a conclusion.

This Black Hawke is plotting something big.

"He seems to be searching for all the extraordinary beings in this world."

"Is that so?"

Hawk, upon hearing this information from Natasha, felt a stir in his heart, and as his thoughts shifted, he chuckled lightly: "He’s trying to create a soul for himself."

Natasha looked at the speaking Hawk without a word.

Hawk raised his eyes to Natasha, stating his reason for being here.

"This Black Hawke you mentioned was created by someone in the Celestial God Team called Creator Serra."

"Including the Scarlet Witch here."

"They once had a showdown with me in another universe, and lost, so they came here to lay a trap for me."

"They’re trying to use this Black Hawke to replace me from my timeline."

"But they have no way of creating a real me."

"Because I am unique."

"Hence, they intercepted a timeline of my Wanda left here to create a Scarlet Witch, and then created a seeming version of me from that Scarlet Witch’s timeline."

"Yet, this version of me has no soul."

"Thus, they must grant him a soul; only then can they truly deceive everyone."

"But ordinary souls cannot achieve this, and also, they wouldn’t dare make big moves, as that would alert me."

"So their focus has to be on your planet, and the only suitable candidates are the extraordinary beings living on Earth."

"Although their souls are still a far cry from mine."

"But quantitative changes can lead to qualitative transformations, especially when all he wants is a soul that meets the threshold of truly deceiving everyone."

"So..."

After recounting the cause and effect of Black Hawke’s origin with Natasha, Hawk paused and couldn’t help but shake his head and laugh: "I thought before I arrived, they were secretly plotting something extraordinary, really able to trap me fatally—turns out it’s just this. Had I known, I wouldn’t have needed to specifically transit through Hell."

Well, this is better.

Directly threw two favors to Death.

Hawk was a bit speechless.

While Natasha, after listening to Hawk’s words, focused on Hawk’s concluding words.

Her eyes lit up, filled with expectancy as she looked at Hawk.

"So, this Black Hawke is not your match?"

"Of course."

"That’s great, quickly."

Natasha was very anxious.

But Hawk shifted the tone of his words: "But I am not a match for this Scarlet Witch; I think I might need a helper."

Natasha: "..."
