Chapter 219 Keeping pace
We have said many times that magic has a price.
But what we didn’t go into detail is that these so-called costs can come in all kinds of gruesome forms.
The original X-Men base is now in ruins.
The calmness at this moment is almost unbelievable. Not long ago, a terrifying and abnormal energy erupted here. It was a powerful force that could completely disintegrate everything around it. It was a legendary power that ordinary people could not access at all.
On the top of the hill made of stone bricks and rubble, Zhang Yi was sitting there quietly, smoking a cigarette.
In the wasteland world, tobacco is a rare thing. These small things that can bring people huge wealth have always been firmly grasped by major forces.
Most of the conflicts between gangsters are related to these things. If you can get one in this world, that is enough to prove your identity.
Looking indifferently at the countless mercenary corpses under the ruins, Zhang Yi's expression was extremely dull.
These people are the first ones to come here, but they definitely cannot be the last ones. In this world, there are too many people with their heads in their belts and no regard for life or death.
The power that the Shadow King erupted before his death was very powerful. At the same time, this also meant that this power would be noticed by others. Zhang Yi didn't know how many people were coming here at this time, but What he knew was that it was time for him to leave here.
Picking up a wine bottle, this thing, like the cigarettes, was 'sent' by the mercenaries. It seems that these people are not ordinary mercenaries. They are obviously the vanguard of some gangs, otherwise they would not be so rich. .
As soon as he raised his head, Zhang Yi put the wine bottle to his mouth. The next moment, the sweet wine flowed into Zhang Yi's mouth.
"Bah, bah, bah!"
Before Zhang Yi could taste it, he immediately spat out the sand in his mouth.
Looking at the fragrant wine coming from the jug, Zhang Yi pursed his lips and finally threw the jug aside.
“To be honest, the price is a bit outrageous.”
[Indeed, especially for a foodie]
Zhang Yi rolled his eyes and did not respond to Miss Time.
Any food that enters the mouth will turn into sand or something, which is indeed a bit vicious.
This was the first time he had come into contact with the so-called 'price' in magic. Before that, Zhang Yi, who held an entire universe of energy, hardly needed to care about the price. All the magic he released was converted from energy. ,Conservation of energy.
But this time it was different. The Shadow King's dying counterattack was more violent than Zhang Yi had imagined.
It has to be said that the King of Shadows really taught Zhang Yi a good lesson this time, and let him know how powerful the potential of abstract magic and necromancy magic can be when combined into one.
If someone had told Zhang Yi before that there would be someone in this world who could exert or simulate the Phoenix Power, then Zhang Ye would have scorned it, or at least half-believed it.
But this time, Zhang Yi saw with his own eyes the incomparable phoenix power of Jean Gray transformed by the King of Shadows. If Zhang Yi said he was not surprised, it was definitely a lie.
Although this Phoenix Power was an abstract simulation and completely incomparable to the real Phoenix Power, the terrifying power still left a deep impression on Zhang Yi.
After losing the cosmic energy as a backup energy source, all the magic released by Zhang Yi was carried by himself, and in this case, the so-called price naturally came to the door.
But fortunately, these are still at a level that Zhang Yi can accept. Moreover, if he hadn't swallowed part of Kraken's power before, I'm afraid it would be quite dangerous this time.
After extinguishing the cigarette in his hand, Zhang Yi stood up slowly. Looking at the ruins at his feet, Zhang Yi patted the dust on his body and prepared to leave.
Devouring the legendary King of Shadows gave Zhang Yi a great harvest. Not only were he not exposed to abstract magic and necromancy magic before, but now Zhang Yi could barely control his spiritual power.
Perhaps after long-term practice, Zhang Yi could barely reach Professor X's level.
But these are not important to Zhang Yi now. His mind is now filled with the judgment declaration just issued by the Red Skull.
Yes, Zhang Yi also received the message.
This is also thanks to the mercenaries who came to die. The satellite communication equipment in their hands saved Zhang Yi a lot of trouble, and at the same time provided Zhang Yi with very important intelligence.
Although this kind of portable satellite communication would make the picture blurry, when Zhang Yi saw the prisoner's neatly stacked uniforms, Zhang Yi quickly recalled the other person's identity - the Red Hood.
Red Hood, whose real name is Jason Todd, is the second-generation Robin of the Bat family, also known as the ‘Two Barrels’.
Zhang Ye didn't know much about his story, but he still knew a few major events that he was famous for. But now, what Zhang Ye wanted to know most was how he came to this universe. of.
Jason Todd was once killed by the Joker when he was serving as Robin. After his resurrection, he could not accept that Batman did not avenge him, so he rebuilt the suit, called himself the Red Hood, and began to kill to stop him. The path of the anti-hero to kill.
Now that Jason has put on the Red Hood uniform, it can be deduced that the universe where the other party originally lived should have been a relatively comprehensive large universe, at least something like the Teen Titans should have been formed.
And this is what Zhang Yi is most confused about. He can't guess what state the other party's universe is in. It stands to reason that such a completely abnormal 'travel' often hides huge secrets behind it. Perhaps, these are also two The universe is similar.
After experiencing many experiences of traveling through the universe, Zhang Yi actually summed up some experiences. For example, those universes that are heading for destruction often develop in directions that cannot be spied on.
Eventually, that timeline and that universe will plunge into the world beyond nothingness and disappear into the darkness that no one knows about.
And a universe with human intervention like Flashpoint will break the original operating route, which will even cause the reality of several surrounding parallel universes to collapse, just like what Barry Allen caused before.
Comparing these two results, it is not difficult to see that if the timeline is compared to a person, then the former is equivalent to the end of life, and the latter is murder.
Zhang Yi is not sure what direction the wasteland universe will develop, but he can speculate that the wasteland universe should belong to the former.
The wasteland universe should be a universe that is about to 'die' after being separated from the tree of the multiverse timeline and heading towards nothingness.
Under such circumstances, Zhang Yi could not imagine what the DC universe would look like, heading toward darkness side by side with the Marvel Wasteland Universe.
Having a fever is really uncomfortable. The weather has been changing these days. Please keep warm and take care of yourself!
