Chapter 1411 Return of the Old Days (X)

Staring at the huge black sun, the center of the sun, like a black hole, is dark and bottomless, but there are countless mysterious patterns. The light radiating from the surroundings is also colorless, as if using black paint to outline a misty and light outline on the canvas of the world.

The dance of particles is like a rising flame, making it impossible to look away from the unpredictable law of motion. Xu Shangqi feels that his soul will be sucked into the endless mysterious patterns, so terrifying, magnificent and magnificent.

Xu Shangqi walked towards that direction unconsciously. He stretched out a hand, as if he wanted to touch the sun's rays, but he just hung there quietly, not responding to anything.

Xu Shangqi thought he would communicate with the gods in the depths of the stars, but when he really stood here, he found that they were incommunicable. They themselves represent knowledge and truth.

In the moment of staring at them, endless knowledge flowed into the brain. It was not some energy, some skills, or some enhancement. These truths that cannot be described by any cumbersome words or language are the real power they give to their followers.

Scene after scene flooded into Xu Shangqi's mind, the man lying on the hospital bed groaning in pain, the Avengers around him, the madness transmitted by the folded hands, the endless proliferation, killing, chaos, assimilation, invasion...

Then there was an extremely complex system. Starting from the center of the universe, countless monsters continued to spread out according to their seats. Everyone's image, name, personality, hobbies...

All the stories were retained in his memory in the form of pictures, and Xu Shangqi had never felt his memory space so clearly, as if everything was suddenly straightened out, and he could even turn over a certain memory at a certain point in time with great accuracy.

And the knowledge and truth he gained when he only stared at the black sun turned into a black notebook with a black sun pattern on the cover, quietly falling into the empty memory space. Xu Shangqi walked up to pick it up and began to read it.

Soon, he was immersed in this story called "Cancer Universe". I don't know how long it took. When he finally finished reading the whole story, he gently opened his eyes and left his memory space. He did not take away any of the power they prayed for, but took away the key to victory.

Xu Shangqi exhaled and found that Riley had opened his eyes. A few seconds later, Quill also woke up. They exchanged glances and understood what each other had gained.

"This is really amazing, isn't it?" Quill sneered and said, "The god of life called Endless Proliferation is actually one of them. It's a pity that we can't call him by his real name, but I think you should have understood what he has done to this universe."

Riley's eyes were full of anger. Obviously, this story made him extremely angry. He hammered the ground with his hand and roared, "Mar-Vell abandoned his honor, he chose to live in shame, and destroyed the universe!"

Suddenly, a shadow enveloped him. Jessica stood behind Riley, looking at the three of them curiously. She held the gun in her hand tightly and said uncertainly, "Did you succeed?"

Xu Shangqi sighed and said, "Don't worry, we are not crazy. The ancient who responded to our call does not seem to spread madness and chaos. He is the carrier of knowledge, truth and prophecy, so we got the truth from him."

"What truth?" Jessica was a little confused.

"The truth of this universe."

Quil patted the ground beside him and motioned Jessica to sit down. Jessica was still a little alert, but she didn't see any changes in Xu Shangqi and Riley. No tentacles grew on their bodies, and their eyes didn't become crazy.

She thought, well, even if they are crazy, so what? The worst thing is to kill me, and I have wanted to die for a long time.

With such an indifferent and self-destructive mentality, Jessica sat in front of the campfire and began to listen to the three people telling the story of this universe.

"Captain Marvel, Mar-Vell, a Kree hero who once helped the earth, fought for the peace of the universe all his life. He won the respect of the Avengers and many human heroes, so when he was seriously ill and dying, they all went to visit him and comfort him."

Xu Shangqi opened the conversation and cited some examples to describe Mar-Vell, outlining a great interstellar hero image for Jessica.

"But what the human heroes don't know is that Mar-Vell has already succumbed to the disease. He abandoned his past glory and just wanted to survive." Riley gritted his teeth and said, "When he felt painful and helpless, he looked at the stars and heard the call of the stars. In order to survive, he responded to the call."

"You too." Jessica was not infected by the grief and anger in Riley's tone. She just commented very objectively: "Everyone wants to survive. I don't think it's despicable to do anything to achieve this."

"Yes, of course he can sell his body and soul to survive. No one can blame him. He can choose to follow his god to the depths of the stars, completely integrate into the unconscious stupidity, and become an eternal and unconscious person."

"But he didn't do it." Quill sighed softly: "Mar-Vell may have just wanted to survive at first, but when he saw what was deep in the stars, he realized that he could gain powerful power, use this power to conquer and destroy, and gain power, so he went completely crazy."

Jessica pursed her lips. She had a desire to refute, but in the end she turned to a tentative question: "Won't you do this?"

"Never." Riley looked into Jessica's eyes. Jessica saw the heavy power in his eyes. Riley repeated again: "At any time, I will not sacrifice my friends to get any ill-gotten gains for myself, never, never."

Jessica was moved for a moment, but she was not used to such an emotional expression, so she just

"If it were me, I wouldn't choose to live this way." Xu Shangqi frowned and said, "The pain of death is very short. No matter how people imagine hell, it's all imagination. Once you die, you're dead. You can't feel anything."

"But long-term madness means endless mental abuse." Xu Shangqi pursed his lips and said, "This is not much better than being bedridden. If I can, I would rather die."

"I agree with this." Jessica nodded and said, "If the pain of living is too long, then death is a relief."

"We still have to work hard to live, but definitely not in this way." Quill took over and said, "Mar-Vell deceived everyone. The hero of the Avengers, he told them that he was going to die, and hoped that they would come to see him for the last time, and hoped to shake hands with them one by one. "

Jessica had a bad feeling, and sure enough, Quill said: "Mar-Vell infected all superheroes with madness from the depths of the stars for his evil conquest plan."

Jessica swallowed and said: "So this is the truth that they are all crazy, not some sudden infectious disease?"

The three nodded and shook their heads together. Jessica took a deep breath, and her hand holding the gun barrel became tighter and tighter, but soon relaxed. She looked at the three and asked: "Then the last question, who brought this madness?"

"'The Thousands of Horns'."

Riley spit out a name, but it was not what Jessica thought. So serious and solemn, Jessica thought it was not the truth, so she continued to stare at Riley's face, and sure enough, Riley continued to speak:

"But this is actually just a pseudonym, or in other words, Mar-Vell failed to touch the whole truth, and the Outer God did not tell him the truth. The real name of the Ten Thousand Horns should be 'The Obscene Twins - Lloygel and Zar'."

Riley's tone was strange when he called out that name. Before Jessica asked, Riley explained again: "I can't say their real names directly, which will attract their attention. I diluted the pronunciation in Latin and then translated it into English. It doesn't matter. You just remember the pronunciation."

"The question is how did you know it?" Jessica asked in confusion: "Did the god you just contacted tell you?"

"I guess so, and we know more. "Xu Shangqi took out a piece of firewood and drew a strange pattern with the help of the damp water vapor on the ground of the sewer.

Xu Shangqi's hands were very steady. His engineering education background in his previous life made him handy in drawing. The picture was very chaotic. It seemed to be just a series of arcs, but it was somewhat vivid. Jessica saw two ugly creatures in it.

"In that endless knowledge, I saw part of their appearance and heard their names and origins."

"Lloydger and Zar are a pair of brothers of the Old Ones. They are an ugly, bloated, and constantly proliferating mass of meat. Countless tentacles grow in the gaps between the meat, just like what I drew."

"The difference between them is that Lloydger has a pair of wings, while Zar does not. There is a pair of extended tentacles between the two, connecting them so that they can communicate with each other. ”

“The twins live in the ancient city of Arauzha where Arcturus was buried. A group of their tribe, the ‘Jojo people’, offer sacrifices to them from time to time in exchange for the ominous wind that sweeps across the planet.”

Xu Shangqi sighed, looked at his paintings, and said, “Perhaps the two of them are not the key issue. The key is that their mother is called ‘the goddess of dark fertility’, ‘the supreme mother goddess’, and ‘the black goat of the forest who breeds thousands of descendants’, Shab Nicholas.”

“Oh my God, I have a headache!” Jessica covered her head and said, “Another name that makes me tongue-tied. Do these gods intend to use their own names to test the loyalty of believers? If you don’t pronounce it correctly, it’s not considered pious?”

“I think our main enemy is still the twins. "Quail also took out a finger and gently tapped Xu Shangqi's painting, and said: "The Black Sun did not say much about the mother of the twins. It only said that she has a very strong reproductive ability and is very ancient. She often sleeps deep in the stars. Except for sending out the black goat's kid to accept offerings during sacrifices, she rarely calls out."

"But Lloygel and Zar are much more aggressive." Quill drew a circle on the picture and said, "They often urge their believers to offer sacrifices and use the ominous wind to trap the unfortunate as food. I'm afraid that Ma-Vell responded to the call of the ominous wind in his dream and brought the terrible madness into the real world."

Jessica blinked, but became interested in another term in his words, so she said, "Black sun? What is that? Is it the name of the ancient who communicated with you? This is quite easy to remember."

"No, it's just a title, or a description." Riley shook his head and said, "It's just that we saw a black sun, and we don't know whether it is His body or incarnation, nor His name, but those too Yang particles bring us endless knowledge. "

Jessica showed an interested look, she rubbed her hands nervously and said: "It sounds good, knowledge and truth are always better than any ominous wind, then I, can I... I mean... can I summon him?"

The three looked at each other, and they were really undecided. Quill touched his chin and said: "I didn't feel the intention of this ancient to develop a clan. He didn't seem to want to spread faith, didn't need sacrifices, and didn't even talk to us."

"He just hangs over the city of Carcosa, constantly spreading knowledge, just like a real sun. Whether you pray to him or not, he will always be bright. "

"Then can I go and see him?" Jessica's interest became stronger.

Riley showed an embarrassment, Jessica patted him on the back and said, "No, man, I'm not trying to steal him, are you jealous?"

"No, I mean, we don't know how to let you see him, he didn't leave a number... Does he have one?"

The three of them looked at each other again, and then as if they thought of something at the same time, Riley smiled and said.

"It seems that there is one."
