The Death Knell

Su Ming didn't know if Thanos had ever regretted it, maybe he had, but now he couldn't look back.

Whenever he wants to give up, death will appear, maybe give him a few kisses, maybe give him some teasing words, so that he will always be like a donkey staring at carrots, spinning around the millstone.

Over the years, he may have killed tens of billions of aliens across the universe and sent their souls to the courtyard of death, but he still failed to meet his girlfriend's requirements.

I can't give up anymore. I've invested too much. What if I'm just one step away from giving up?

Maybe tomorrow, maybe next time, the people he kills will be enough to gain her approval?

Thanos can only go to darkness in one way.

However, that is his business and Su Ming has nothing to do with it. Each person has his own way of living.

At least for now, he doesn't need to deal with Thanos. This purple sweet potato will still be useful in the future.

"Death didn't come with you?"

Su Ming looked around, but there were only ruins blown by the wind, not the skeleton in the black robe.

"She is in her own country and will always be by my side. But I did bring a friend with me this time, or in other words, someone pestered me to follow."

Thanos raised his hand to grab the air around him, pulled out a golden person out of thin air, and placed it on the ground:

"Adam Warlock, a bastard of human creation."

The man known as Adam Warlock doesn't look human at all, but he speaks English very fluently and is even familiar with Earth's etiquette.

After being caught, he didn't panic. He just smiled and said hello to the death knell:

"Supreme Mage."

"Adam."

Su Ming nodded in response. He had indeed known about the advent of Adam Warlock for a long time. He knew about it on the day he returned to Marvel.

.............................

Gin said at the time that aim almost blew everyone up into the sky, and he was talking about Adam.

Four mad scientists rebelled within Aim. They formed a small team called the 'Enclave', and used a space teleportation device discovered in ancient ruins on Earth that they had stolen from the Sovereign Theocracy decades ago. He created a 'cocoon' and used it day and night to conduct experiments on fusing alien genes with human genes.

Finally, after countless failures, they created a golden human being, a perfect life, innately capable of applying cosmic energy, and extremely powerful.

They named him Adam, which means the first 'new human being', and also implies that the four of them are the 'creator'.

After seeing the supernova explosion-like energy data inside the 'Cocoon', the four bald guys in the Enclave were overjoyed and felt that they could rule the world with Adam.

So they ordered the newly born Adam to destroy the United States first, just to practice their skills and kill the chickens to scare the monkeys.

If the task was done well, they would make Adam an Eve to keep him happy.

Then there is no more.

Although Adam is not omniscient and omnipotent, with the unique application of cosmic energy, he was connected to the earth's radio and various information networks the moment he was released from the cocoon, and learned all common sense.

He wasn't that easy to deceive, especially since those four people didn't leave any counterattack on him.

"Destroy the United States and help you rule the world? Create a woman as strong as me? Who will be happy then? Do you think I'm stupid?!"

So he sent a wave with one hand and beat four scientists into ashes. He also blew up the secret research base in the center of the ocean, punched a hole in Haiti, and triggered changes in the earth's crust and a tsunami.

He didn't have good control over his strength when he was born. His original intention was to beat them to death gently, but he ended up overdoing it.

When he saw how serious the matter was, Adam panicked when he emerged from the water. He ran away immediately like a child who had done something wrong.

He just entered the universe, wandering around in the sea of ​​​​stars, and accidentally discovered Thanos's spaceship. After becoming virtual, he walked through the hull and took a look, and he immediately found it very interesting.

I have never seen a purple-skinned alien, and this alien is also mentally ill.

At that time, Thanos was lying on the bed talking with the disemboweled corpse of a green-skinned female alien. He asked the dead corpse to answer his questions or touch his face.

Very weird.

So he decided to observe Thanos up close and hitch a ride. Anyway, he had no purpose. He was just trying to hide from the limelight in the universe.

While communicating with death through the dead body, a mysterious golden man suddenly appeared and insisted on following him. Of course Thanos was not happy about it.

However, he found that he couldn't kill Adam. This guy was physically immune, elusive, and could transform himself into an untouchable dimension. He really couldn't kill him.

Thanos asked Death if he could help him kill the man.

But Death asked him to take the little golden man with him to kill others. This would be more efficient, wouldn't it mean he could get married faster?

Think about the happy life after marriage...

Thinking of this, Thanos's eyes suddenly shone, and he took Adam with him from then on.

However, when he went to engage in massacres on alien planets, Adam usually stood aside and watched, never participating. From time to time, he would tell some earthly jokes and provide Thanos with some earthly common sense.

Because the way Adam used cosmic energy was too much like a spell caster when the two fought, Thanos mistakenly thought he was a sorcerer. Later, he was too lazy to change his mind, and Adam got the current title of 'Adam Warlock'.

People are unwilling to help him kill people, and Thanos can't force him, and he can't drive him away, so he can only acquiesce that Adam will always follow him.

After all these years, he had gotten used to having such a special friend.

No, even if he went back to his hometown to visit the grave, Adam still followed him, but when he saw the death knell, he seemed to have a guilty conscience and hid himself through invisibility.

Thanos directly captured Adam and asked him to explain the matter to Deathstroke face to face. It was not his Titan Thanos who was following the Earth duo just now, but this little golden man.

.....................

Although the Sorcerer Supreme knew that Adam had caused trouble, in fact, except for Namor, the King of the Sea, no one had any grudge against him.

Besides, there is no shortage of big holes like this at the bottom of the earth. There are many weird places under the sea.

So when the other party spoke to him, he just brushed it off lightly.

Adam seemed to relax a lot. It was obvious that he got the information from nowhere, and he also knew that the Supreme Mage was not easy to mess with. It would be great to be able to get along with him peacefully like this.

"Master, what are you looking for in Titan? Maybe I can help."

He was very enthusiastic. After all, he had seen Deathstroke robbing a tomb here before and guessed that the mage was looking for something.

Su Ming handed him a cigarette, regardless of whether the android could smoke it, he lit it first:

"I need some remote detection equipment. The white light event happened and I need to find the star mark."

"What is that?" Adam pinched his chin: "Sounds like some kind of special star?"

"It's a creature, stupid warlock." Thanos interrupted. He turned around from the tombstone and looked at Adam: "I have seen descriptions of this phenomenon in the ancient legends of the Titans. It turns out that the previous changes in the universe were' Leap'?"

Su Ming didn't nod or shake his head, he just looked at Thanos, waiting for him to continue.

Zishu was silent for a while. Seeing that Deathstroke had no intention of answering, he also lost interest in asking questions. Instead, he raised his hand and took out the projection device, released the panoramic map of Titan, and pointed out another coordinate on the sphere, about Thousands of kilometers away:

"There, the big observatory in the past should be able to help you find the answer. Once you find it, leave my planet as soon as possible and don't disturb my compatriots anymore. They will belong to me after they die."

Su Ming smiled and nodded. He put out the cigarette in his mouth and waved to Wanda's cloak behind him: "Very good. I wish you and Death will have a baby soon."

....................................

After flying far away, Wanda felt that the murderous aura in Deathstroke dissipated.

It was a special feeling that was difficult to describe. In the past, she had only experienced it from her father, that kind of suffocating and cold and ruthless aura.

"Are we going to the observatory?"

She didn't know what to say, so she could only ask questions in a low voice.

Su Ming took off his mask and rubbed his temples:

"Go? If you go, you will be fooled... Since you are acting with me, of course as the Supreme Mage, I will also teach you something. The first lesson in universe survival is - no matter what Thanos and Adam Warlock say, a Don’t believe a word of it.”
