Chapter 103: The Devil and Cell

Dr. Lecky is a revenger and an ambitious man. He is naturally interested in JOKER. The most important thing is that he hopes to be free from the shackles of reincarnation and return to the human world. Therefore, Dr. Lecky and JOKER can be said to be in cahoots with each other.

The chaos in the City of the Dead takes time to resolve, but JOKER is very concerned about the demon. Not to mention him, Dr. Lecky is also very interested. When did such a powerful monster appear in the universe? It is enough to destroy dozens of civilizations. It is really strange.

"Although it is not clear what is going on, according to this situation, the gods will definitely take action." Piccolo said firmly, because he was a god before, but he was cancelled because of leaving his post without permission, but strictly speaking, he is still a "demigod". A god who has been established will not be easily revoked. At most, he will be dismissed.

General Blue asked curiously, "What level of master do you think that demon is?"

"A super master shouldn't cause large-scale deaths, right?" Chen Daquan was unsure. It was actually difficult for him to understand the so-called mimicry and super master levels. After all, he was so far behind. However, with this level displayed there, he was very motivated to practice.

JOKER shook his head. He felt that the level of these earth warriors was indeed a bit low. "Wrong, super warriors can cause such large-scale deaths. Let's put it this way. Before, Frieza was just a mimicry level and established such a large cosmic empire. He dominated one side and no one dared to provoke him. But I tell you clearly that a super master only needs one move to kill an emperor of Frieza's level."

Everyone was stunned. This comparison was too terrifying. Everyone knew Frieza's level, but they didn't know that the super state would be so powerful!

"The masters of mimicry are indeed powerful, but not to this level. Generally speaking, the military strength of different civilizations in the universe is definitely different. However, if there are not one or two masters of mimicry level among dozens of civilizations, it is really too weird." Shi Kaitian told the truth. Although he himself is not a high-level master, it is very reasonable. Everyone present had to nod in agreement.

"Super state?" Piccolo was very curious and glanced at JOKER, wanting to get an answer from him.

JOKER was silent for a while, and he thought of a very famous villain: Cell

"What do you think............" JOKER raised his head and glanced at all the friends present, and paused and said: "........ Why did this monster destroy so many civilizations?"

This question is very critical, and everyone was also stunned after hearing it. They really didn't care too much about this question. They just thought that he was a natural killer. Shouldn't villains be like this?

"I think I can give you all an answer." The big guy whose arms had been destroyed by self-destruction spoke to attract everyone's attention. He glanced at the other warriors, who nodded silently. Obviously, they all knew the general reason.

"You all died at his hands, right?" JOKER asked, and everyone just continued to nod silently.

"I think that demon is actually seeking evolution, and the only way for it to evolve is to absorb life to perfect itself!" The big guy looked a little painful. He thought about the situation when he died, closed his eyes and sighed.

"Sure enough!" JOKER's eyes lit up. The monster was indeed the same setting as Cell. Since it was not a half-demon and half-god weapon like Majin Buu, it must be a life form. In the Dragon Ball world, only Androids 17 and 18 and Cell would deliberately kill humans. The former was for fun, and the latter was to evolve into a perfect body.

Cell is the core villain in the manga "Dragon Ball" written by Akira Toriyama. He is a biochemical humanoid created and developed by Dr. Gero. He is the ultimate man-made human developed from cells.

Its formation mechanism is to collect cells of all masters (including aliens coming to Earth) through micro-robots in more than ten years, retain their superior cell memory through genetic technology, form an embryo, and then develop from the embryo into Cell.

Cell in the comics is a very interesting villain. Perhaps because of the cells of everyone, Cell wants to absorb No. 17 and No. 18 to become a real perfect body more than the first mission given by Dr. Gero to kill Son Goku.

In the comics, he keeps absorbing human life to achieve strength improvement. The Dragon Ball warriors tried every means to find him but failed. The number of humans on Earth decreased sharply for a period of time. At least he finally absorbed No. 17 by force, and was later given the opportunity by Vegeta to absorb No. 18 to become the final perfect body.

In terms of strength, after successfully transforming into a perfect form, Cell easily defeated Vegeta and Trunks, and his strength was comparable to that of Son Goku. However, many Dragon Ball fans boldly speculated that Son Goku at that time should have vaguely touched the threshold of Super Saiyan 2.

Cell's ending is an amazing villain ending. After being defeated by Son Goku who transformed into Super Saiyan 2, he attempted to self-destruct and die together, but was taken to King Kai's planet by Son Goku's teleportation. He self-destructed in vain, and of course, he also took the lives of Son Goku and King Kai.

When everything came to an abrupt end, Akira Toriyama showed his masterful plot control. Because of the Saiyan cells, Cell was resurrected from the brink of death and became a super Saiyan level 2 master with blue arcs all over his body. When this episode was published, it caused a sensation around the world like Mars hitting the Earth. At that time, many people didn't even want to work, they just wanted to see the rest of the story as soon as possible. Everyone knows what happened next.

The other earth warriors hadn't reacted yet, but Piccolo's face changed drastically, and he asked hurriedly: "You mean, that person completed his evolution by absorbing your life?"

"Right!"

"Yes!"

"Yeah, I was directly absorbed by him and ended up in this place."

Everyone present took a breath of cold air, this was too exaggerated, and the always arrogant Tianlong was a little unconvinced, and he felt a chill, he asked: "Is it really like this? You were all eaten by that demon?"

"Well, I saw my flesh and blood being sucked away bit by bit, and even now my mind is echoing the gurgling sound of my brain being absorbed." The man with dreadlocks looked indifferent, and everyone present shuddered, this was too exaggerated!

"What's the name of that monster?" JOKER asked.

"I don't know." The man with dreadlocks shook his head, he died very quickly, and he didn't have time to ask questions.

A thin warrior said, "I know. The great elder of our planet once asked this question when he was fighting him. The monster said his name was Lucifer."

"Lucifer?"

"What is this??"

Others had no idea what Lucifer was, but Hellboy JOKER frowned and muttered to himself, "Lucifer?"

"Huh? Lucifer? How could it be this name? When my planet was destroyed, the monster said his name was Mephisto!" Another warrior corrected, and everyone was even more confused, with a lot of questions.

"Mephisto? Lucifer?? What do these names mean?" Dr. Lecky asked puzzledly. He searched the knowledge in his mind, but couldn't find any information about these two names.

But at this time, Piccolo immediately noticed that Hellboy JOKER's expression changed, thinking that JOKER knew the origin of this monster?

JOKER was already horrified at this time. He was shocked enough when he heard Lucifer, but when he heard that this monster called him Mephisto before, JOKER suddenly remembered something terrible.

This meeting lasted for a long time. Everyone expressed their opinions on the demon and then dispersed. This group of people were all masters. Their staying was very beneficial to JOKER's consolidation. Moreover, the strength of the earth warriors was not much worse than theirs. Especially when Piccolo was there, it was basically crushing.

JOKER stayed alone in the hall thinking about some things. He was thinking about the game planning he had done in the past!

That's right, game planning!

"Piccolo?"

"Well, you are thinking about that Lucifer thing, right?" Piccolo came over from behind. He guessed that JOKER must know something. After all, JOKER's origin was mysterious. Even Piccolo didn't think Ye Xun was a JOKER. In his imagination, Ye Xun was just a lucky man chosen by a great will, far from being a real JOKER.

"My mind is a little confused now, I don't know what's going on with me." Joker's words startled Piccolo. Is it that complicated?

"Do you know that demon?"

"I don't know, but his name is really... weird..." Joker said truthfully.

Piccolo was puzzled: "I don't understand. I think you can explain it and try to organize it in the language I know."

"Okay, I'll tell you directly about the connection between these names. First of all, I must tell you that the names Faust and Mephisto are related!"

"What?" Piccolo was startled and a little surprised.

JOKER said: "At first, the reason why I named the Warrior Center Faust Center was because I got a set of Faust biological armor in the Devil Game. Later, I thought the name Faust was very good, so I just used this name."

"No, you didn't tell the truth." Piccolo smiled. He was sure that JOKER didn't tell the truth. "This is not a reason. The name Faust should be particular, otherwise you wouldn't choose this name."

"Hahahaha, worthy of Piccolo, you can't hide anything from you." JOKER laughed. It is almost impossible to hide from Piccolo, a role with intelligence and a master of nanny level.

JOKER sorted out his thoughts and said: "In fact, Faust is the name of a person. He is full of knowledge and has a long-standing reputation, but he feels confused and dissatisfied with his long-term living status and doesn't know where to go."

"It's normal. A successful person often thinks about higher-level things. Once he doesn't get the answer, he will become confused and helpless." Piccolo followed up.

"For me, Faust is a representative figure of the conflict between rationality and sensibility. His academic achievements did not allow him to gain inner satisfaction. There was a great conflict between rationality and sensibility. At this time Reason prevailed and suppressed his emotional needs. In a state of extreme confusion and distress, the first solution that Faust thought of was suicide. "

"Haha, the label of arrogant genius. I have already guessed the development of the subsequent plot. Genius undergoes extreme changes and finally falls into the world to find the truth. There are contradictions and conflicts, the battle between matter and consciousness, existence and thinking. These are called human dramas.”

JOKER's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but give Bick a thumbs up. It's amazing. Bick is really amazing. He sees many things very thoroughly, because the reason why the story of Faust is famous all over the world is during the Renaissance. , his story was adapted into an opera and has been passed down to this day.

"Yes, after Faust was about to commit suicide, the memory of his beautiful life as a boy was suddenly awakened by himself. In an instant, Faust's thoughts changed."

"conventional."

"Hahaha, human drama is so vulgar." JOKER knew that Piccolo, who was once a god, had read these stories countless times, and the ending could be guessed, but what Piccolo wanted to know was Mephi What does Sturt have to do with Lucifer?

"The Devil made a bet with God and tempted Faustus into signing an agreement with him: the Devil would fulfill all Faustus' demands during his lifetime, but would take Faustus' soul in exchange for his death."

At this point, JOKER's tone changed, "This devil's name is Mephistopheles!"

"Huh?!" Piccolo was a little surprised. If you put it this way, Mephisto fell for Faust in the play, so now the devil named his former name Mephisto because of Faust? From Germany?

"Isn't it a coincidence?"

"What's even more coincidental is that the so-called play of Mephistopheles and Faust has never appeared on earth. The story you told is simply fabricated out of thin air."

JOKER breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't know how to explain this story to Piccolo.

It reflects the truest expression of the spiritual state pursued by people after the Renaissance: I should enjoy myself in time while I am alive, and I will not care about the flood after I die.

"Faust was a man whose desire to enjoy earthly life could never be satisfied. He started a new pursuit. He affirmed that human beings should enjoy the beauty of this world, and at the same time affirmed the selflessness and purity of love. However, the reason why Faust is neither satisfied with study life nor enjoyment is caused by the conflict between spiritual needs and physical needs."

"In this way, it is very appropriate. I can understand why you chose Faust's name as the brand name of the Warrior Center. These two impulses of Faust can be said to be human nature, material and spiritual pursuits. Since these two needs cannot achieve a perfect balance, Faust feels extremely painful." Piccolo nodded, so it seems that the name Faust itself has a strong meaning. (To be continued)
