Chapter 154 Long-term plan
Zhang Ye knew very well what consequences the unknown time travel would bring.
Just like the chrysalis trying to pull the multiverse into the abyss, anything unexplainable outside the sandbox will cause huge pollution after entering the sandbox.
This kind of pollution is not only aimed at the future timeline, but also the countless complicated information carried by outsiders will also put the world in an extremely dangerous state.
The impact on information is invisible and intangible. Similarly, this pollution is not unpredictable.
But what is interesting is that each branch of the universe has its own unique circulatory system. After being affected by information from other universes, the universe will activate a 'self-cleaning' mechanism, just like the human body's immune system. , to eliminate bad information and pollution.
But that kind of processing method can only be applied to the normal multiverse, and the current universe, which is gradually coming to an end and is about to close its coffin when it dies, has no ability to drive its own immune system.
In other words, the will of this universe has been dead for a long time, and the life currently remaining in the wasteland of this universe is just a group of cells living on corpses.
One day, maybe a year, maybe a hundred years, the corpse of the universe will eventually rot, and their future will also lead to a road full of long nights.
No one knows what is at the end of the road, just like a boat sailing on a planet full of oceans without any land. The will of that planet has long since died, and the only remaining wind and waves are just the reverberations of His death.
"Can this universe really be saved? Or, do they really deserve to be saved by us?"
At the top of the valley, Kara stared at the tragic situation below the mountain from a distance. This was not the first time she saw the darkness of the world, but every time, it made her heart sink a little deeper.
At the foot of the mountain is a robbed caravan. In order to support their families, the merchants who survived had no choice but to embark on the road of traveling merchants. They used their savings to buy some camels and carriages, and walked on the wasteland. Just hoping to make a small fortune in the next town.
Perhaps, only these businessmen can truly see through the misery and despair of this world. Guys like them who travel with large quantities of goods to sell them are undoubtedly gold that can go away to the gangsters.
These businessmen tie their heads to their belts. They never know which one will come first, tomorrow or the accident. They also don’t know whether wealth or sharp knives are waiting for them in the next town. But they know that if they don’t do this business, then The entire family will starve to death on the streets, or become slaves to others.
Sometimes in order to ensure as much safety as possible, businessmen will try to work together as a group. They will raise funds to recruit some capable mercenaries as security guards. For example, Eagle Eye was in this industry before.
But this is not a guarantee. It does not mean that the trip will be safe if someone protects it. The attacks of gang members are often more ferocious than they imagine.
Because for the gang members, if they cannot rob a big sum this time, then the entire gang will fall apart, and the relationship between the two is like a wolf and a sheep.
If the wolf succeeds, the sheep will die.
If the sheep succeeds, the wolf will die.
The laws of nature cannot be changed.
In the past, if she had discovered such a thing, Kara would have rushed forward without saying a word. She could not just watch those gangsters kill people and then leave, nor could she accept that she did nothing at this time.
She wanted to avenge the dead businessmen.
But now, she held back.
For the first time in her life, she stopped her body and began to move her brain. She wanted to think, she wanted to find a real solution to all this, instead of doing meaningless treatment of the symptoms rather than the root cause.
“It’s good that you learn to think about the meaning behind it all.”
Zhang Yi and Pietro stood behind Carla, looking at Carla's appearance, Zhang Yi nodded slightly and continued.
"Kara, I have never thought of myself as a hero. The title of 'hero' means so much that it cannot be explained clearly in one or two sentences. But I know a saying that times make heroes. When the moral order collapses, world, and the emergence of heroes will only make it worse."
Zhang Ye is not just talking nonsense. In the comics, after Hawkeye's death, Wolverine stretched out his sharp claws again because of the death of his wife and daughter. He decided to follow the inertia of his previous thinking and solve all this in a heroic way.
He took Banner's most promising baby Hulk out of the Gobi Desert. He rode a white horse and announced the return of Wolverine to all the criminals in the world. Dragging his old and tired body, he used self-healing that had long since failed. With factors and alloy claws, he even killed through the entire wasteland.
But the result?
Wolverine personally destroyed the Hulk Gang, leaving only a mess that ordinary people could not take over. Later, the Punisher Gang took over. They were more vicious than the Hulk Gang, and the casualty rate of ordinary people was even higher than that ruled by the Hulk Gang. It will be even higher.
There are endless villains to kill. If you kill a man-eating shark, there will always be new sharks coming following the smell of blood.
If you want to change all this, then you must not use the ‘old method’.
"I couldn't change the world I lived in in Pietro. At that time, I had no strength or ability. I couldn't even protect myself. My goal was just to fulfill my promise to Pietro.
But now, I want to try to do something, not only for the ordinary people living here, but also for ourselves. "
Even if it wasn't for slogan-like measures such as 'saving the common people', Zhang Yi still had other deeper anxieties.
The chrysalis that pollutes time and distorts reality has always shrouded Zhang Yi's mind like a nightmare.
Zhang Yi knew that his power was not strong enough. There were more secrets waiting for him to explore. Zhang Yi never thought that he would be able to master unprecedented power after tearing apart reality. He knew that for the unknown existence, I am still too small.
Regardless of the eternal night sky or the past of the time controller, these secrets are not something that I can touch now.
Zhang Yi couldn't mention these anxieties to anyone. He only knew that he should keep his feet on the ground.
After losing the energy supply of the ruined universe, Zhang Yi urgently needed a new universe to become his energy station, and here, the wasteland universe under Zhang Yi's feet would be a good starting point.
This time, Zhang Yi doesn't want to repeat the mistakes of the ruined universe. What he needs is an absolutely safe universe, a universe that won't collapse all the time.
And if you want to do this, there can only be one voice in such a universe.
"How should we act?" Kara blinked.
Hearing this, Zhang Yi said calmly.
"We need people."
