MTL - The Track of Dawn In the World of Marvel-Chapter 652 19 If you can only choose between love and the future
Chapter 652 19. If you can only choose one between love and the future.
It has been a long time since Mason got the black apple, but he has never used this device that can theoretically answer all difficult problems.
Mason was useless when the fusion of the planes was in trouble, and he was useless when Mephisto's tricks almost made all actions fall short. Even when the decisive battle is coming, he still didn't intend to use it.
But what the master said just now reminded him.
When he first witnessed the impact on the world in the world of pirates and Gotham, Mason had an insight into his own fate when he woke up in this dark age. Now, as long as you kill Mephisto and the Stars, you can complete the "main mission" of your journey.
In a stand-alone game, this is already entering the final stage of the plot. It is a pity to hold such an important item and keep it for use.
After all, he is not a **** party after all trophy achievements, right?
Of course, there is a very realistic reason why Mason has not used the black apple. Not only the information label of this thing shows that using it is risky, but also Heiqi’s "on-site teaching" told him that using the black apple to get answers is indeed a useful thing. risky thing.
Hei Qiqi asked a question related to the future, but was backlashed by taboo knowledge to the point where he could hardly maintain the ring and let all the faces of the ancient gods be released.
With Mason's little strength back then, he would probably have to surrender most of his life in the face of such backlash.
But not now.
He has achieved fruitful and vigorous growth in all aspects. After uniting his "Mason Family" to overthrow the Mason of nothingness, he received a gift of power and his ability manipulation has also increased to a considerable level.
He thought he should give it a try.
Of course, for the sake of safety, Mason will not directly ask about an ending about everything like Black Strange, that would be too crazy and meaningless.
The captain firmly believes that he can win.
Madeleine's Phoenix Judgment did not erase his future, which already shows that he will win. As for how much he wins, that is not a matter for Mason to consider.
"So, let's just be realistic."
Mason exhaled a puff of smoke ring, reached out to touch the black apple in front of him, but before touching it, the door of the small conference room was suddenly pushed open.
The alchemist Mason, who was wearing a wizard hat, peeped inside and took a look inside. He was holding an antique medicine box in his arms, and he was obviously here to deliver something.
Then he saw Mason holding the penguin umbrella and preparing to touch the black apple.
"Hey! Are you dying?"
The alchemist exclaimed, stepped forward and pushed Mason's hand away, and said:
"Is this something you can use casually? And you don't have an urgent answer in your heart, do you?"
“I think it’s a little disrespectful to save this obvious ‘passthrough item’ until the end”
Mason pouted and said:
"So it's okay to try, why not increase your odds?"
"Should it be used for important things?"
The alchemist thought about it and felt that there was nothing wrong with this statement. He then took out his pipe and put it in his mouth, and said to Mason:
"I mean, ask something fun or something exciting, like who the **** sent us here?"
"You want me to die, don't you?"
The captain complained:
"As long as I dare to ask this kind of question that is related to the outside world, not to mention whether Black Apple can give an answer, I am afraid that I will die suddenly on the spot.
I'm going to ask how it can destroy the old devil's **** 'Mephisto Network', he told me before that Mephisto's minds of countless planes are connected together, which represents this 'detachment' Actions aren't really meant for a single Mephisto.
This is the common plan of all of them.
Even if we kill the old devil who dominates the Constellation Society, sooner or later other devils will take over the banner. Isn't this equivalent to doing it for nothing? "
"You ask me this question, why are you asking it?"
The alchemist complained:
"Isn't the easiest way to wait for the old devil to escape?
Mephisto's space-time aliens in all worlds are integrated into one, and when he becomes a complete existence, he will be removed, so that all Mephistos will die. "
"You are talking nonsense!"
The subject snorted and said:
"I can't think of raising a big dad when I still have an advantage. I understand the concept of detachment. Although Hei Qiyi didn't take that step, he already has the qualifications. He just didn't want to take that step out of pure love. step.
He is so powerful. After Mephisto is freed, the price I will pay to kill him will definitely be calculated by ten times. "
"Uh, it makes sense."
The alchemist nodded, exhaled the smoke ring again, blinked and said to Mason:
"But I suggest you change the question, do you know what I mean? Change it to a question that is more valuable and important to you, such as Ciri's perfect resurrection
We don't actually need to kill all Mephistos, that's just optional.
Our purpose has always been clear, which is to overthrow the Constellation Society, and now that the impact has reached the fifth round, even if other Mephistos intend to inherit the legacy of the old devil, they are powerless.
That's the trouble of the next era, Mason, didn't you say that you are only responsible for reversing the dark age, and you are too lazy to participate in the next era?
Believe in the wisdom of future generations, the most important thing is to save your little lover's life now. "
"You are asking me to choose between the future and love, alas, a difficult problem through the ages."
Mason shook his head, sighed and said:
"But I only have one chance to ask, and I have to give up the other, which is really difficult."
It was difficult to say it, but in fact Mason reached out and placed his hand on the extremely smooth surface of the black apple without much hesitation.
The moment his fingers touched this thing, a chill from the bottom of his heart rushed all the way to Mason's heart following the touch of his fingertips, making him tremble as if he drank a drink with ice in one gulp in the cold winter months.
That's cold for which there is no immunity.
Even the mind is being frozen, and that power is continuously strengthening as the contact time prolongs, as if forcing Mason to ask the question in his heart.
If he hesitates any longer, the captain has no doubt that his soul will be frozen by this.
It’s no wonder that Hei Qiyi felt so uncomfortable when he used the Black Apple. Mason believed that this power originating from the mysterious wall of origin could not be exempted from resistance by relying on pure strength.
It is directly in effect at the existential level.
"Ask! Come on, your waters are destabilized, they're crystallizing, hell."
A small camera was set up next to it to film this important moment as a valuable research material for the cosmic artifact, the alchemist urged:
"It's hurting you, forcing you to ask questions, don't fight the power, make your choices."
"唰"
A black light lit up and intertwined with Mason's five fingers spread out on the surface of the black apple. The five fingers had been completely frozen from the molecular level into a crystal clear posture, and they were still emitting a dense cold air, like some kind of Brutal ice sculptures.
However, the bright light seems to indicate that Mason has completed the standard use process of this cosmic artifact and entered the final stage of obtaining answers.
The ice on his finger was melting, which made the alchemist quite curious. He guessed that this should be the power recovery of this unique cosmic artifact after completing this "mission".
It's like the tool that was made is finally used to make it "happy" and get the "satisfaction" it deserves.
After a few seconds, the black streamer wrapped around Mason's finger dimmed, causing the black apple to return to the state of no waves in the ancient well again. When the captain opened his eyes, there seemed to be the answer given in the pupils of his eyeballs. Those complicated words and graphics danced before his eyes, giving him a standard answer.
"This thing is really tricky!"
Mason let go of his hand and gave his own evaluation.
He took out his notebook to write and draw, without raising his head, he said to the alchemist who was eagerly waiting for the answer:
"I probably figured out how it works. Did you see how I was frozen just now? The backlash force when accepting taboo knowledge is constantly released with the complexity and obscurity of the questions you want to ask Yes, the more complicated the questions you ask and involve the truth of the universe, the greater the backlash you will suffer.
For example, Hei Qiyi asked about the real future before, which directly caused him to almost suffer the backlash damage of the upper limit of life. If I follow your suggestion to ask who sent us here, my existence will be erased on the spot .
It's not that it's trying to hurt me.
It's that I can't bear the real answer of that level at all, symbolic! This thing is also based on symbolic effect, but this actually answers your question from the side.
The guys who sent us here are quite powerful, at least at the level of the gods of the universe. But don't worry, this thing doesn't give you an answer immediately when a question floats in your mind, there is a confirmation process.
From this point of view, it is quite smart.
After all, it is a thing that can only be used once in a lifetime, and it is good to have a sense of ritual. "
"Who asked you this!"
The alchemist scratched his head and complained:
"What I want to hear is which one you choose between the future and love, you bastard! What I want to hear is gossip, okay? Who the **** cares about the working principle and manual of the black apple!
Is that something that ordinary people can use? Hurry up hurry up! Say, do you choose to be a cold-blooded **** who abandons love in the name of the future, or a brainless lover who is willing to abandon the future for love? "
"Trust me, you will use this knowledge."
Mason gave the alchemist a meaningful look, then coughed twice and said:
"Of course I made a choice, I asked it how to eliminate the Mephisto network, and this **** gave me a'standard answer', you know what I mean?
Standard answer does not mean it is the correct answer or the most efficient answer.
It told me that all Mephistos are creatures of hell. When they became lords of **** and possessed the divinity of hell, their existence was already bound to the **** of their respective planes.
And the most wonderful thing is that the effective principle of the "comprehensive concept" of **** is quite complicated. To put it simply, its concept takes effect on all planes where **** legends exist, so it can be regarded as a gap between each dimension of hell. have connection.
Black Apple suggested that I completely destroy the dimension of **** where Mephisto is located. At the moment when the symbolism it carries is shattered, Mephisto’s eternal life based on **** and will not die will usher in the final end.
The dimensional fragmentation of Lord Fate will directly affect the other planes where Mephisto is located.
Such a shock of spiritual and existential force would not kill them, but would completely collapse their shared Mephisto network.
In this way, the efforts made by Lord Fate to transcend can no longer be inherited by other old devils, and they will re-transform from a whole into an independent individual. "
"That's it?"
The alchemist widened his eyes and said:
"Isn't it good to find a plan to kill them? This is only a plan to weaken them."
"No, no, no, the essence of the standard answer is here."
Mason shook his head and explained:
"Don't forget the environment we are in. When the fusion process of the New Utopia Project is pushed to the end, all parallel planes will merge into a complete universe!
In this independent and complete universe, the concept of **** from each plane will be fused together to form a 'unique hell'.
Since even **** is the only one, there must and can only be one individual who dominates the dimension of **** they are in among the remaining Mephistos.
This is not based on their will but based on the laws of the universe. Whether they want to or not, they must kill each other until the last Mephisto is left.
Although the result is the same, the concept of 'transcendence' is completely opposite to the unity of all bodies.
The plan given by Black Apple is that we kill the strongest Lord of Fate, and then hand everything over to the real and cruel fate, those **** will all die!
And they will die at the hands of others.
Tsk, I have to say, this plan is quite interesting as a ‘punishment’. It seems the Black Apple read my distaste for the old devil and gave me the most diabolical of all possible options.
Blowing up Mephisto's **** dimension sounds difficult, but it is not difficult to achieve this condition with the help of Devouring Stars, just make up for it after the war.
How hard can this be? "
"Well, so you finally chose the future between love and the future?"
The alchemist looked at Mason contentedly and contemptuously, and he complained:
"Fortunately, I thought you were a pure love party, but I didn't expect you to be a creature of interest, bah, Mason, you really let me down."
"Don't rush to be disappointed."
The captain shook his head, stroked the black apple in his hand that no longer responded to him, his "quota" had been used up, and this cosmic artifact would no longer be open to him.
Mason said to the alchemist:
"The reason why I chose the future rather than my poor love is not because I don't care about Ciri's life or death, but because I choose to believe in the wisdom and methods of my family members.
I believe that even if there is no black apple, you can finally give me a perfect plan and use your wisdom to help me, a poor man, solve my problem.
This is the plan I chose for Ciri, not relying on external objects, but relying on the unity and potential of the entire Mason family. "
Speaking of which, Mason put his hand on the beautiful medicine box that the alchemist brought this time, he patted it, winked at the alchemist, and said:
"Look, you didn't disappoint me either, did you?"
"Okay, okay, I admit that what you said makes sense and I am quite touched, but the truth is, don't be too busy to be happy."
The alchemist snorted rather arrogantly, then sighed and said:
"I did create the resurrection potion you hoped to get, but to be honest, I don't know how effective this thing will be. After all, the situation of Ciri and the other two instructors is very complicated.
Mephisto's power erosion alone is a problem that is difficult to solve perfectly, and our time is a bit short, I can only do my best within the limited time.
may disappoint you, but I've"
"So I said I will trust your wisdom without reservation!"
Mason interrupted the alchemist's "disclaimer". Under the stunned gaze of the alchemist, Mason stuffed the penguin umbrella into his hand, grabbed his left hand and placed it on the black apple.
He winked at the alchemist and said:
"Let's get started, what are you waiting for? My love is saved by your wisdom, come on, ask it your own questions, Mason McJack Cooper."
