The Collection of The End

——dc, darkness——

Cable stepped out of the "Explosion Tunnel" and looked at the old Marion Jones huddled next to the transmitter in the underground safe house.

This "Green Martian" has a wrinkled face, his skin is almost completely bleached green, and his elder uniform is in tatters, but he still looks in the direction of the cable with a look of expectancy.

For him, the "alien" Cable is the only life-saving straw for his tribe. Although his reason tells him that it is a fantasy for the other party to save his tribe through "time travel", his sensibility forces him to do this. Convinced.

"Next, you may see some unexpected changes," Cable said in a slightly broken Martian language through a translator: "Please treat it as a normal situation that should be the way it is."

"Five hundred years..." Marion murmured in a hoarse voice: "I have thought about all the possibilities..."

Diansuo said nothing more and closed his eyes slightly, preparing to endure the next "time and space shock".

Before time travel technology was actually deduced through the mass-energy conversion equation, almost everyone who thought it was feasible felt that "changing history" was very easy. Just go to the key nodes of certain events and push it, and you could be like The switch also caused history to develop in another direction. The next focus of debate was issues based on assumptions such as the "grandfather paradox", "historical inertia" and "parallel world bifurcation". Until Kang the Conqueror integrated He combined all the timelines into one "sacred timeline" and used it to become the ruler of the galaxy. Only those guys who were too busy discussing theories but didn't dare to practice realized what they had missed.

Different choices will indeed produce different parallel worlds, but it is not a trivial matter like whether you go out with your left foot or your right foot first in the morning. It must have an impact on an event that is large enough in history and reaches the level of "time and space anchor". The corresponding parallel world, and at that level of events, the "space-time oscillation" produced is simply beyond the reach of ordinary people.

The so-called "space-time oscillation" refers to the backlash suffered after disturbing the "time dimension". The greater the impact, the stronger the power.

For example, most of those who experiment with the "grandfather paradox" will find that they have not changed anything except a grandfather after returning to the original time. Not only that, they will also be subject to "grandfather substitution." "The "space-time shock" caused by this change may even cause the weaker ones to die on the spot.

In the final analysis, before the advent of time travel technology, those various literary and film and television works that believed that the concept of "time" was weak and could be interfered with by anyone should bear the main responsibility.

Precisely because of the existence of "time and space oscillations", those resistance organizations that forced Kang the Conqueror to time travel to eliminate them, and that everyone still remembers or no longer exist at all, have made real contributions.

Although Cable chased Kang the Conqueror to this point in time and did not have to pay any price, his actions to save the Martians at this moment can only be paid for by himself.

Which of the "three disasters" will it be: "fire, wind, and thunder"?

"..."

"..."

"Mr. Cable?" Marion looked at him doubtfully.

Did it fail? Cable, who had not waited for the time and space shock, frowned, then strode towards the safety door of the underground safe house, opened it and walked out.

"Wait--" Marion hurriedly followed.

Buzz——

Outside the door was no longer the desolate and dead ruins in his impression, but a prosperous and lively Martian city. The buildings with triangles and rhombuses as the main structures were splendid. Blue and gold large and small crystals flashed fluorescently. People walking on the wide streets Martians, whether green or white, are all friendly and welcoming.

"This... this..." Marion's body was shaking and her words were incoherent.

"Father!" Jon, dressed as a standard Martian Manhunter but with many additional mechanical devices, came forward: "You don't have to come here every year to commemorate it. Haven't we already decided to advance and retreat with Titan?"

"Where is your brother...Malafax?" Marion looked at him in disbelief.

"Have you forgotten? He was sentenced to four hundred and ninety-nine years in prison," Jon shrugged: "When today's celebration is over, go pick him up. I hope he really changes his ways."

"Um, um... Master Cable..." Marion turned to look for Cable, only to find that except for her son, the memorial hall that should be the underground safe house was empty.

"Lord Cable? You have forgotten that he will not come to Mars on this day, lest we think he is seeking revenge."

"Oh, is it so……"

——? ? ? ——

"Where...is this?"

After stepping out of the safe house, Cable found himself inexplicably in a strange place. It was neither the original ruins of the Pyramid of Mars nor what it had expected after its restoration of prosperity, but a world of only gray and white.

He was on the top floor of a tall obsidian castle. The sky was a gray-white vortex, surrounded by a gray forest and river. A little closer, you could see a winding tree with ragged members. The team was slowly entering the castle from the main entrance.

"I...dead?" After a brief hesitation, Diansuo murmured to himself: "This is impossible. The 'Cosmic Spirit Ball' is enough to absorb the damage caused by the 'Space-Time Shock', and it is just an alien weapon that has no record in history. They are just a group of stars. Even though they have strong physical fitness and high technological level... they also have powerful psychic abilities... and..."

His voice became quieter and quieter as he spoke, until it was almost inaudible.

So, the reason why he did not directly suffer "space-time shock" is because he went too far. Even the cosmic spirit ball had no time to convert energy for rescue, and he died the moment he returned to the original time node?

"No, those Martians don't matter," a soft and deep female voice sounded from behind the cable: "You will appear here just because I want to see you."

"Huh?" Cable turned around and saw a human girl with one eye closed, an Eye of Horus pattern painted on her face, a golden cross encore pendant, and wearing a black hooded robe.

"I have always disliked the way those Martians died," the girl in black robe continued: "Being convinced that I was really burned to death because I imagined myself on fire, it sounds like I deliberately wanted to kill them. .】"

"...I see." Although Cable didn't know who she was and didn't understand what she was saying at all, his intuition told him that he just needed to nod now.

"You saved them, I want to give you a reward," the black-robed girl paused, looking up and down at the cable with her unclosed eyes: "Do you want 'won't die' or 'can be resurrected'?"

"this……"

"No--!

"

Before Dian Cable could think of how to answer, he was interrupted by a scream. He turned around and looked around, and was not very surprised to see Deadpool kneeling on the ground with open hands and shouting toward the sky. At the same time, "Snowflakes are falling" The strange background sound of "Gone with the wind, rustling in the north wind".

"How could you betray me! Thanos!"

"...I am Cable."
