Chapter 144 Choice
Coven gently tapped Ikaris's eyebrows and withdrew his hand.
Before anyone could ask, he announced the answer in advance: "I used magic to hypnotize his consciousness. Now he will only tell the truth. If you have anything you want to ask, just ask him."
"Ikaris!"
Gilgamesh took a step forward, stared at Ikaris with complex eyes and asked in a deep voice: "How did Ajak die?!"
"After the first earthquake sent by God, I discovered the awakened mutant race."
Ikaris replied dully like a puppet: "A few days ago, I asked Ajak about the specific time of the God's descent, but Ajak made the decision to prevent the God's descent."
"So I tricked her into the mutant tribe's activity area and pushed her in front of the mutant tribe."
A sobbing sound came from Circe's mouth.
Gilgamesh gritted his teeth and gasped heavily. He raised his right hand and then lowered it. He tried his best not to make a move.
Others were completely stunned.
At this moment, a stream of light flashed, and Makary appeared in front of everyone holding Zhu Ke.
This caused everyone to shift their attention and cast their sights on Zhu Ke.
And when Zhu Ke was carefully put down by Makari, he clutched his chest and shook his head slightly with a painful expression on his face: "The plan failed!"
"I-we can do it again!"
The fat black man tried to suggest: "Zhu Ke, are your injuries serious?! Can you hold on a little longer and let us focus our energy on you again!"
"No way."
Zhu Ke sighed slightly: "I failed before. I could only put Thiam to sleep for a short time. Once I interrupt my ability... you see..."
As he spoke, Zhuke looked at the volcano in the distance.
Everyone turned around and saw that the volcano at this time had restarted the surge of magma, and the dark smoke column shot straight into the sky.
"Let's see..." Zhu Ke said with some despair: "Once I stop using my ability, he will wake up soon. No matter how many times I try again, the result will be the same."
"Then what should we do now?!" Ginger shouted irritably: "Can we just watch the god Thiam descend? I haven't even said goodbye to all the humans I know!"
At this time Circe walked up to Ikaris.
She hesitated with tears in her eyes, and then asked: "Why... why did you choose to let Thiam come... Ikaris, for thousands of years, haven't you had any feelings for the earth and humans?"
"That is the fate of mankind."
Ikaris revealed his heart blankly: "I care about you more than humans."
While Circe was stunned, Ikaris continued to say without emotion: "Once you choose to betray, Alithem will definitely destroy you, you will no longer have a future, and I will completely lose you. .”
These words made Circe almost cry.
She raised her hand to cover her mouth and looked at Ikaris in disbelief.
Next to him, Ke Wen felt that Circe's mind was almost confused at this time, so he induced her to speak: "Now is not the time to talk about love. You should focus on the coming divine arrival."
Circe swallowed a few more breaths silently, and then she shook her head in despair and said, "But I, we have nothing to do..."
"No!" Ke Wen interrupted: "There is another way."
"What?!"
The fat black man asked immediately. Now when it comes to love for human beings, he ranks high.
Facing the inquiry, Kewen glanced at the other party and then turned his attention back to Circe.
He raised his hand and pointed at Circe's hands and said, "Don't you know how to transform matter?"
The whole audience was shocked.
Then, the fat black man was the first to scream: "I don't want to say whether Circe can do it! You actually want to kill Thiam?!"
Kowen took a step back and made a gesture of disengagement.
Then he said softly: "This is the last resort. You should consider it yourself."
After saying that, Kewen secretly released the magic without anyone noticing.
He shrouded Circe's body with emotional magic, adding enough tension and impulsive emotions to the other party.
Circe knew nothing of this.
She turned her head to look at the volcano that had completely begun to erupt, and then looked at the monstrous tsunami rising from the sea.
Gritting her teeth, Sirsi said with difficulty: "I will follow Ajak's will! No matter what, I cannot watch the planet and humanity under my feet perish because of our inaction!"
She looked around everyone, wanting to ask everyone's opinion one last time.
Gilgamesh looked at Shena beside him, and then nodded to Circe.
The fat black man was anxious, but he was anxious about why he was still dragging his feet.
Makary and Zhuke also agreed with Circe's idea.
Ginger was wavering, but when he found that everyone basically agreed, he had to sigh and give up the vote.
Spike was the only one excited.
She stepped forward and shouted: "Why! Why don't you listen to Ikaris!"
"Spike."
Zhuke used his ability to read Spike's thoughts, so he said solemnly: "Now is not the time for romance. You can't make random decisions just because you have love for Ikaris!"
"I don't!"
Spike was panicked. She glanced at Circe quickly, and then shouted to Zhu Ke: "I just want to complete my mission! I want to go back to my hometown! Get rid of this body that will always be a child!"
She shed tears of grievance: "Why! Why can you all experience love and family affection! Why can only I, forever, remain like this child!"
Hearing this, Zhu Ke did not expose Spike's excuse.
He turned to look at Circe and said in a solemn voice: "Now that everyone has the same idea, let's act as soon as possible! Time is running out..."
boom--
Before Zhu Ke could finish his words, the island beneath everyone's feet suddenly began to shake violently.
Mountains collapsed and trees collapsed.
Orange magma spurted out from the cracks in the ground.
Tsunamis at sea have also become more violent.
The next moment, several golden peaks suddenly broke through the sea and rose up.
When everyone took a closer look, they turned out to be extremely huge metal fingers.
Farther away, a huge metal head of unknown dimensions gradually rose up from the sea level.
Obviously, there is not much time left before the gods descend and the planet under their feet is destroyed.
This made Ke Wen frown slightly.
He looked down at his feet, then raised his right foot and stamped it hard.
boom--
Rocks and soil exploded into the sky, and spread into the sea with Ke Wen's wave of his hand.
There was no rock and soil under everyone's feet, and everyone was standing on a layer of metal material with textured patterns.
"quick!"
The fat black man came back to his senses and quickly reminded everyone loudly: "Everyone turn on the bracelets again! This time, focus the energy on Circe's body!!"
Hearing this, most people immediately activated their bracelets.
Only Spike still stared at Ikaris in despair.
"gentlemen?"
Pietro came to Coven and whispered worriedly: "Is it still under control now?"
"Peace of mind."
While looking at the head of 'Tiam' that was gradually rising, Coven whispered: "The matter has become a foregone conclusion."
Just as Pietro was about to nod, Circe, who was floating in the air, suddenly fell down.
Bang!
The energy in Circe's body was extremely surging. He half-knelt on the outer wall of 'Thiam's' gauntlet, and gritted his teeth and pressed his hands down.
Crunch——
With Circe's hands as the center, a circle of gray matter quickly spread around.
With the ability to transform matter, Thiam's metal body is being transformed rapidly.
The golden color was constantly replaced by gray stone, and the scope of transformation quickly rushed out of the island and spread rapidly along Thiam's body.
A few minutes later, Circe collapsed to the side as if she had lost all her strength.
The other Eternals slowly fell from the sky.
Looking at the exposed part of Thiam's body, it has been completely transformed into gray rock by Circe.
Coven sensed that there was no movement of mind or energy in Thiam's body.
Thiam is dead.
After noticing this, Coven pointed his finger at Ikaris, who had been making a puppet.
He removed his mind control from Ikaris.
This made Ikaris suddenly take a deep breath.
After regaining consciousness, Ikaris also instantly noticed the surrounding scene.
He stared at the petrified Thiam, stunned.
In pain and despair, Ikaris fell to his knees helplessly.
Seeing this, the others slowly gathered around.
But no one spoke, no one knew how to face Ikaris, and no one knew what to say.
Kewen doesn’t need to worry.
He was in a good mood at this time, because the crisis of the destruction of the earth was over.
So he broke the silence, nodded to the Eternals and said, "Thank you for making this difficult choice, then..."
He raised his hand and waved towards the distance.
Ajak's body suddenly flew over and slowly landed in front of him.
Then, Ke Wen flipped his right hand and took out the time stone from the 'Rubik's Cube Space'.
He used magic to activate the power of the gem and enveloped Ajak's body in the realm of time travel.
After two breaths, Ajak suddenly opened his eyes.
The grayish color on his skin quickly receded, and his entire body regained its rosy and vibrant color.
"Ah, Ajak?!"
Ginger exclaimed, and others were also shocked.
Hearing the call, Ajak half-sited up in confusion.
She looked around and said hesitantly: "Where is...? Am I dreaming? Am I not facing the siege of mutants?"
"It was sir who resurrected you!"
The crisis disappeared, which made Pietro feel very relaxed. He said ostentatiously: "You were killed by your companion Ikaris before. Do you remember?"
Ajak was stunned.
Then, her memory of being pushed off the cliff by Ikaris finally emerged...
------Digression-----
I caught a cold and had a fever, and my head felt dizzy. After I finished writing, I didn’t even know what I had written...
