Chapter 442 57 The World Does Not Want to Be Destroyed, the Answer Lies in the Stars
Chapter 442 57. The world does not want to be destroyed, the answer lies in the stars
Swamp Thing is controlled by the newly awakened Franklin Richards, and even with the power of All Green, it can't break free for a while.
But this is not to say who is stronger or weaker between the two. After all, Franklin has only just awakened. The main reason is that under Mason's "precise guidance", this new mutant who can distort reality has grasped the Swamp Monster's biggest "weakness" ".
He "stripped" Alec Holland's consciousness from the existence of Swamp Thing. Without the guidance of this dead man's consciousness, the immortal supernatural creature Swamp Thing would not be able to take shape.
It is a strange thing that can only be formed by supernatural power and human consciousness.
But this alone is not enough to defeat the existence of Swamp Monster.
"You can try the power of restraining the green of all things again."
Mason helped Franklin, who was in a very embarrassed state after being beaten, to come forward and said softly to his little compatriot:
"You should be able to feel it. It is a kind of plant energy floating in nature. When Holland's consciousness is stripped away, it will quickly dissipate and transfer to a gifted host if it cannot find a host.
But I don’t want to see the next Chaos Agent of All Green appear, at least it can’t appear in the enemy’s camp. "
"Of course I can!"
Franklin was very tired. He had just completed his mutant awakening and now he really wanted to sleep well for ten days and ten nights, but like a naughty kid who got a new toy, he was clumsy in sensing the invisible power of the swamp monster under Mason's guidance. , and then "kneaded" it out like kneading plasticine.
The super-Omega-level mutant ability is very buggy. Even if it is just awakened, it can easily grab the power of nature and create a green orb-like entity.
The little ant king of the wasteland wanted to keep it to himself, but then he realized what he was doing.
He curled his lips and handed the "trophy" to Captain Mason beside him.
"That's good."
Seeing that his little compatriot was so sensible, Mason nodded with satisfaction, reached out to take the fragment of green power, and then reached out to pat Franklin on the shoulder to show encouragement. He said:
"Continue to maintain the strength of this restraint. I need to talk to Holland who is awake."
He stepped forward and erased the scars on his body during the water transition, but the irreparable damage to his clothes made Mason look more embarrassed than ever before.
Harley rode over on the quiet hell motorcycle. She felt distressed and helped Mason take off his torn windbreaker and let the Isu cape cover his body. She couldn't bear to see her little sweetheart in such a mess.
With the support of Harley, Mason walked to the human consciousness that was stripped away by Franklin.
The man's feet were covered with vines, thorns and strange seeds that had lost their main body and could not be formed. Groups of strange flowers in the swamp also bloomed under his feet.
But the condensed consciousness in the translucent spirit body looks like an ordinary man, looking very tired.
"Hello, Dr. Holland."
Mason nodded to him. The man's consciousness was still a little dazed for a while. When he heard Mason calling his former name, he suddenly woke up.
He looked at Mason, and then warned in an erratic voice:
"They bewitched the swamp monster, no, they called, manipulated and used the survival instinct of the green of all things. It was led into the darkness if it was unwilling to be destroyed.
You guys have to hurry up!
Several other powers belonging to the root of the world are also being sought and utilized by them.
I can feel.
The Red of All has its agents drained of Superman's life force, and the Black of Decay has found its agents, all under the secret guidance of villains from the stars.
The Withering Ash, Splinter Fungi, and Metal Spirits are still hiding, but not for long.
You must hurry!
Once the six original powers fall into their control, the entire material cycle of the world will become your enemy in an instant. "
"Very valuable information."
Mason nodded, glanced at Poison Ivy next to him, and said:
"Ivy, you have absorbed part of the power of the Green of All Things, can you feel what happened to it?"
"It's very chaotic and irritable. I can only sense that it is bewitched. It instinctively wants to exist and does not want to be destroyed, and those bastards have led it down a dark path."
Poison Ivy suppressed her headache and the call from nature, and said to Mason intermittently:
"You may have to ask Holland for the specific details. He is the first person to experience it."
"However, I don't know much."
The man's consciousness suspended above the remains of the swamp monster sighed and said:
"It felt the end of the world when the impact event occurred. From that time on, the Swamp Monster, who was given responsibilities by the Forest Council, moved around the world under the guidance of the Green of All Things. It. No, my actions were for Find ways to fight the apocalypse.
But I haven't been able to find it.
Then the minions of the Society of Stars appeared in this world.
They promised me hope for the world's survival, they showed me samples of the Green Power of all things from other worlds, and they claimed they could protect this world.
Therefore, the green of all things that do not want to perish gathered in me.
I may still have the consciousness to fight against the promised dark future. To be honest, I trust the heroes of this world more than these outsiders with ulterior motives.
But unfortunately, the greenness of all things is only a symbolic power. It has no wisdom but strength in itself. "
The man who was once an excellent botanist died in an experimental accident. The body fell into the swamp and was found by the Forest Council. The man who was injected with the power of the green of all things and turned into a swamp monster made a move of rubbing his forehead.
He said in a tired tone:
"This is the whole story. The still clear memory in my mind can only remember this, and I am no longer clear about some of the details after the green power of all things gathered.
But I am certain that the 'ritual' I just performed is the way in which the Green of All Things transforms the existing world.
It intends to reshape the entire world's life forms according to the plan of the Star Council."
"Can it be done?"
Damian asked with wide eyes.
Zha Kang beside him lit a cigarette and said quietly:
“The green of all things represents the power of nature. The entire world is governed by it as long as there is natural ecology. In theory, all plants born on this planet are manifestations of its power.
So little cutie, do you think it can reshape the world?
This group of stars is really clever. They can actually find these root powers and weaken us from the existential level of the world. They really underestimated them. "
"It's actually not as scary as you think."
Poison Ivy looked back at the destroyed swamp ritual scene, she shook her head and said:
"The green of all things on Swamp Monster is not complete, there are other scattered fragments in other places, and I have a power called the 'May Queen'.
Therefore, even if his ritual is completed, it will not transform the world in an instant, but it will definitely interfere with the operation of the world and cause terrible chaos.
Afterwards, the Association of Stars will be able to profit easily and simply. "
"They think beautifully!"
Mason said expressionlessly, then looked at Alec Holland who was stripped of the ceremony, and asked:
"Will our taking away the green power of all things from you affect your resurrection? Doctor, you have also seen the current situation. We need you to participate in this battle for the world that has begun."
"I'd love to help you."
Dr. Holland nodded sincerely.
But then, he shook his head with regret and said:
"However, Swamp Thing must die, partly because I have already been tempted by the Council of Stars once. Although I don't quite remember how they achieved it, I don't think I can resist the second temptation.
I am the agent chosen by the Green of All Things. Once I defect at a critical moment, it will have a terrible impact on you.
On the other hand it’s for personal reasons.”
This doctor of botany, who died more than ten years ago and still lives as a supernatural creature, paused, sighed and said:
"I am not the first swamp monster. From the birth of the world to the present, there have been many swamp monsters given power by the Forest Council. However, each of them chose to commit suicide after getting tired of eternal life.
I don't want to accept that fate. In fact, I don't think it is a blessing to continue to live in this posture.
The way the Timber Council created Swamp Thing was too scary, like an evil ritual and I don't want it to continue anymore, I hope you can let me rest in peace here.
I am already dead.
I hope to say goodbye to the world I love as a human being. "
"The Timber Council will not give up, Dr. Holland."
Poison Ivy shook her head and said:
“Even if you reject this gift, they will still search for humans who have died from the forces of nature around the world and resurrect them as swamp monsters.
They view you as a guardian of the forces of nature, as is their tradition. "
"It used to be! But now the emotionless Forest Council has a better choice!"
Dr. Holland said firmly:
"All they need is a consciousness with wisdom to control the power of forests and swamps to protect the majesty of the green of all things. They actually don't care where the wisdom to control power comes from. Therefore, theoretically speaking, herbaceous plants are born with wisdom. More suitable for this responsibility than dead humans.”
The doctor had reached this point, and everyone understood what he meant.
Everyone's eyes fell on the tree man Groot.
This plant-like life has both the labels of "plant" and "intelligent creature". Just from the perspective of Swamp Monster's existence, it is indeed more suitable to take over Swamp Monster's power than the unlucky humans who accidentally died of natural forces.
Dr. Holland himself said that controlling the power of forest trees with human consciousness is not a happy experience. Years of supernatural life have made him feel painful and tired.
Every swamp monster before him chose to commit suicide, which is really not a suitable power for humans.
"My name is Groot"
The eyes and mouth made by Groot on the bark showed a puzzled and surprised expression, and he answered with his own mantra, while Rocket Raccoon, the "special Groot language translation expert" sitting on his shoulder Translated to:
"What Groot means is that he doesn't know if he can be recognized by the Forest Council? After all, that organization sounds terrible.
But if Dr. Holland is really in so much pain, it would be willing to help. "
“Can so much information be translated in just one sentence?”
Miss Tiexin, who was wiping off the dirt on her face next to her, complained in a surprised voice, but Poison Ivy explained in a low voice that Groot's voice was just an embellishment, and that its communication with other people actually relied on consciousness.
But only people recognized by special beings like Groot, or people who have systematically learned this special language, can understand the consciousness it conveys when it speaks.
In short, this is a rather strange life in every sense of the word.
"Then give it a try."
Seeing Groot's willingness to help, the separated Dr. Holland's consciousness smiled.
He manipulated the power of Swamp Monster to create a staircase tunnel leading underground in the messy swamp in front of him, and motioned Groot to enter it to receive the recognition and blessing of the Forest Council.
Although Groot himself was not confident, the expression on the face of Holland, a former doctor of botany, was very determined. Based on his research and experience on plants, he believed that this plan was absolutely feasible.
Groot was not afraid.
It could feel the friendly atmosphere of natural plants coming out of the staircase tunnel, so it waved its hand made of vines to say goodbye to its good friend Rocket and other friends, and then slowly walked into it with the stiff movements unique to "vegetative people" .
All that remains is to wait.
However, while waiting, Dr. Holland has one last wish that needs to be entrusted to others to help fulfill.
He made a very special request, gathering all the adult males in the group and keeping the women and children away from their conversation.
Well, actually not many.
Only Zha Kang and Mason met his conditions.
"Constantine, you should know that I have a close female friend."
As soon as Dr. Holland started, Zha Kang, who was holding a cigarette butt in his mouth, curled his lips and exposed his lie. He said straightforwardly:
"That's your lover. Well, let me put it another way. You maintain an open relationship. I heard you say that before when I came to your swamp to hide from the devil to collect debts.
The woman's name is Abby Arcane, who was once your experimental assistant. Both her husband and your wife died in your experimental accident, and she did not dislike you after you became a swamp monster.
Not only does it help you hide, but it also develops a thrilling spiritual love relationship with you, which makes you both talk about marriage for a while. "
"Well, that's what it is."
The doctor sighed, looked at the gloomy sky above the swamp, and said softly:
"I owe her a lot. I know she is lonely. I once wanted to rely on the power of Swamp Monster's immortality to accompany her. However, now that I have decided to die, she will be alone in this world that will perish at any time.
That's what I don't want to see. "
"Um?"
At this point in the conversation, the perceptive Mason had realized something was wrong.
He took a step back uneasily, and then heard Dr. Holland express his request very directly. As a conscious body, he looked at the two people in front of him and pleaded:
"Before my consciousness dies, I need to use the body of one of the two to say goodbye to Abby and give her a child.
That will be the best outcome of our relationship, and the descendants born from pure love will accompany Abby in my place. "
"Ahem."
Mason immediately raised his hand and said:
"This is too exciting, I quit, but I can help as an alchemist, I mean, medicine or something."
"Well, I don't refuse."
Zha Kang blew out a smoke ring and said coquettishly:
"After all, Ms. Abby is also an iceberg beauty who still has charm, but the problem is that now I have to change my ways and become my true destiny. Holland, you are my friend, but you have to help me convince her. My ex-girlfriend Xiao Zha.
If she agrees, I will definitely help. "
"Well, Constantine, this process may not be as exciting as you think."
Dr. Holland showed a wonderful smile and said:
"After all, I control your body, and I will also use the power of plant hormones and the green of all things to temporarily change your DNA. You will become seriously ill as a result."
"no problem, no problem."
The handsome man Zha Kang waved his hands and said:
"You can borrow my body, and I can leave my body and follow you. It's okay if you're addicted to it. I'll call Xiao Zha over, and you can convince her yourself."
After saying that, Zha Kang whistled to find Zha, while Dr. Holland turned to look at Mason. The spirit said to Mason in a very serious tone:
“The world doesn’t want to die, Mason Cooper.
The restlessness of the green of all things is just one way for the power of origin to fight against destruction. If you can convince them, let them see another possibility that you can bring.
They will help you.
The whole world will help you. "
"I understand what you mean."
Mason also lit a cigarette. As the smoke rose, he assured Dr. Holland, who had decided to die in order to avoid being bewitched again:
"This world will not be so easily broken by them. We have been preparing for this for a long time. I believe that the arrogant stars and their evil friends will reap a defeat here!
I promise! "
"Um."
Dr. Holland, or Swamp Thing, nodded.
He finally looked at the green power fragment of all things in Mason's hand and said softly:
"Give it to Ivy. She will become the real 'May Queen'. Finally, be careful, Mason, there are helpers in this world.
The betrayers have gathered and are led by an evil wisdom."
