The Death Knell

There was no need to check the passage behind him, that was where he came from. After those small mechanical balls flew into the other five passages, everyone gathered next to Doom, waiting for feedback from his terminal.

Doom knew what he should do. Although he was not the kind of person who had a dozen backup plans for everything, it was just because he was confident that one plan was enough. It did not mean that his thinking was not thorough.

Soon, the little robot surrounded by everyone gradually sent back a video signal, uh, or a magical image.

The first dimension that returned the picture was very wrong. There were some very cartoon-looking bugs in it. They had watery super-big eyes, and the colors were too bright.

They were singing and dancing in a huge room. There was also a long table covered with white tablecloth, with all kinds of cute cakes and snacks placed on it.

"Ah, I know this. It should be the insect version of Asan's musical dimension." Wade scratched his butt and looked at the male and female insects lining up in neat rows and dancing passionately. He also wanted to twist. It started to move: "What a cold midwinter, what a cold midwinter, faint..."

Su Ming rolled his eyes. This dimension was not the next step for them. It was more like a bug version of "High School Musical". It was a campus musical.

However, he didn't bother to correct his cousin. He just patted Doom on the shoulder and told him to switch to some pictures. This dimension was wrong, which meant that the detector had completed its mission.

Doom didn't feel any distress. Anyway, as long as you mastered the manufacturing principles, it was not difficult to make these gadgets. With the help of technological armor, it was easy to make hundreds of them in one night.

So he snapped his fingers, and the scene in front of everyone changed.

The dimension seen by the second detector was pitch black, the kind of black that was so pure that you couldn't even see your fingers.

"Is this right?" Susan looked at Deathstroke.

Su Ming shook his head. The next box they were looking for should have the same dimension as the first box.

Infinite Crossing actually has a main road. If you want to find the Taiyana people, you have to follow the main road to the end. Any dimension that is too different from the first box must be the wrong option.

Sure enough, while the two were communicating, the darkness in the picture changed, and some light came into everyone's eyes.

It turned out that the detector was held in the mouth of a giant beast. When it opened its mouth to yawn, the detector stuck in the teeth captured the blue sky and the endless sea.

"It's a water dimension, that's wrong." Deathstroke denied this.

Doom didn't waste any time and switched directly to the third image.

The third detector captured a hellish world where the sky and the ground were red. A volcano erupted in the distance, and thick black smoke filled the mountains.

An army that looked like a demon but was made entirely of metal machinery appeared in front of them. The opponent almost immediately discovered the detector and opened fire with laser weapons.

The next second is the communication interruption.

Deadpool sniffed his fingers and picked at the black mud between his nails: "It's definitely not this. This looks like the end of the world under the rule of the "Terminator"."

"Actually, it's a 'materialistic demon', not a terminator." Su Ming patted Wade's hand to tell him not to pick on the dirt around him, and at the same time explained the existence of this weird thing.

In fact, these discovered things should be classified as a type of demon. Simply put, after some technologies have developed to a certain level, they suddenly jump to the mysterious side and climb up the technology tree of soul energy.

Therefore, these robots have become an army of aliens that collect souls and become 'mechanical demons'. Similar to them, there are 'biochemical demons' and 'synthetic vampires'. These exterminators all live in the technological dimension and the future 'universe' The Truth Religion's soul power generation system, belief engine and other technologies are probably obtained from them.

The faith engine can really be regarded as a black technology. For example, it is to throw some people into a jar and let them chant sutras. The faith provided can be used as energy to propel the spacecraft for space navigation. This is probably the same as the psychic engine. A level of mysterious creation.

"Dum has heard a little bit about them." Doctor Doom's face was expressionless. He raised his hand and was about to snap his fingers: "I have heard that there is an extremely materialistic force in the gap between reality and dimensions. It is very dissatisfied with spellcasters. Be friendly, they will invade the magical dimension and hunt the sorcerers.”

Su Ming nodded. Doom's intelligence work was not bad. As a wizard, he actually came into contact with the concept of dimensions much earlier than other scientists.

He should be talking about the Materialist Empire, but that's not a big problem. Those robots just have a series of 'anti-sorcerer' abilities such as magic immunity, but Deathstroke has various plans to deal with the Materialist Empire, and they were laid out decades ago. .

"Those lunatics are just a small problem, let's move on to the next one now." Deathstroke calmly replied, now is not the time to worry about the future.

Doctor Doom switched to the next image.

In the new images, the crowd saw themselves.

Just like looking in the mirror, Wade scratched his scalp, and the Deadpool opposite him also scratched his scalp a second later.

Deadpool took off his pants, and Wade opposite him also took off his pants a second later.

Regardless of the speed, method, expression, and posture of the movements, except for a slight delay, they are almost exactly the same.

"Pooh!"

"Pooh!"

The person on the other side seems to be imitating him all the time, which makes me very angry.

"What is this?" Susan tilted her head, and the invisible woman opposite also did the same two seconds later: "Imitation show?"

"This is a ripple in the timeline where we are now. Because we 'disappeared' for a second when passing through the black hole, this second became a watershed. A mirror dimension of negative space was born in the infinite crossroads. Once If you go in, you will be completely trapped by the time paradox."

Deathstroke lowered his hand from his chest, and the green light gradually faded. He slowly shook his head, turned his gaze to the last passage, and explained to Susan.

Doom was more direct. He said: "The scientific explanation is the red shift phenomenon of black holes. The particles interfere and cause polarization. This will not be our way... In this way, There is only one last channel left.”

The Invisible Woman nodded to the doctor, saying that his explanation was easier to understand, and that the theory of time described by Deathstroke was a bit too complicated.

Okay, it’s obviously Doom’s words that are more difficult to understand, but even a lover can hear beauty in his ears, so what can we do?

"Don't act blindly. It's better to cut to the last sensor and take a look. If all five channels are wrong, I have a backup plan." Su Ming changed the topic and asked everyone not to act rashly. You must be careful and cautious in the infinite crossroads. As long as anything has the prefix 'infinite', it's a big deal in Marvel.

Su Ming had never even heard of these dimensions that he had seen before. If he really fell into them, it would be a big problem whether to fish for people or not.

"You are still as cautious as ever. Doom understands Master Ancient One's choice." Doctor Doom operated smoothly and praised Ancient One: "Maybe you are indeed the best candidate for the Supreme Mage."

Su Ming shook his head and turned his attention to the last image: "When you were learning magic in the Himalayas, you were taught by a cult. Although those monks were ascetic sects like Karma Taj's 'Anonymous', they were the most extreme The Blood Sacrifice Sect, and thanks to the fact that I was the Supreme Mage at that time, the control of black magic was relaxed. If Master Ancient One was still in office, you might not have a chance to learn and come down."

Doom let out a chuckle: "The nature of the power is not important, it is in the hands of what kind of person it is. And I only hope that my motherland will prosper. The choice of means is often the last thing that people like you and me care about. .”
