The Death Knell

"I'm still a little unclear about the process. How did you defeat Eternity? I heard he was very strong before?"

Gin threw a few pieces of firewood into the fireplace. The nights in the mountains were a bit cold, and the Asgardians also liked fireplaces or bonfires according to their customs.

Amid sparks flying, she turned back to look at Deathstroke on the sofa, who was drinking leisurely.

"This is the result of many factors. Do you want to listen? In fact, what I told Master Gu Yi is the truth. It is not a battle at all, it can only be regarded as a joke. It's a pity that she doesn't believe it."

Su Ming put his arm around the woman's waist, hugged her and sat next to her, feeling the sense of security as her head rested on his shoulder:

"Since I brought Death with me to find eternity, he should have understood that I wanted to negotiate, not fight. After all, if we really want to fight, who would bring a middleman who is naturally on the opponent's side?"

"I thought death would be on Wade's side and yours."

Gin's head arched, and she stretched her hand towards the wine barrel in front of her. The firelight of the fireplace made her look rosy and very beautiful.

"How many years has she known Wade? Thirty years? Twenty years?" Su Ming shook his head, and he kissed the woman's head: "But she and Eternity are brother and sister, and the time they have coexisted is more than a trillion years at least. I can’t even give an accurate number. Now think about it, if a war really breaks out, which side will she be on?”

The contract between Death and Deathstroke was just a contract in which she promised to help get the Ancient One back, but it did not say that she would help Deathstroke fight.

And don’t forget that behind the death knell is another ‘death’ holding a parasol. The concepts of death in two different universes are destined not to be friends.

"So, eternity gave death some face in the end?" Gin poured himself a horn cup full of wine and took a few gulps.

"As I said before, there are many factors. One is Death's face and the rules of the universe. The second is that I have shown the strength to hurt him and is not controlled by his authority. The third is Gu Yi's The fact that his soul is dispensable to him does not affect his strength. The fourth reason is that I promised to support him in becoming the new Life Tribunal."

Su Ming raised a hand and pointed her fingers to explain some unknown things to Gin. Maybe she could only see the first two layers, but if she thought about the next two layers carefully, she should be able to understand them.

"Wait, when did you say anything in support of him ascending to the Life Tribunal?"

Gin's head left his shoulder and her face turned towards him.

"Because although I laughed at him, I didn't express any objection to this matter, right? I said from the beginning that I wanted to negotiate terms."

Su Ming, who was smiling, clinked glasses with her, took a sip of wine, looked at the fire and said:

"Now there is only my 40k material world left in the multi-dimensional world. If I oppose Eternal's ascendance and have been stumbling for him in the dark, such as provoking a war between dimensional demons every three days, then Eternal will definitely succeed to the court. It’s not going well, and he obviously understands this, otherwise why do you think he would know about Nightmare and Sithorn, just waiting for me here.”

"So this is the 'deal' you want to talk about." Gin understood. She wiped the drink from her mouth and opened her eyes wide.

"Yes, I knew from the beginning that eternity, which has 'time sequence' in its own concept, is the most suitable embodiment of the successor court, and he created the Unpeng Seven Gods to prepare for this. At least he is better than It’s much more appropriate to start with Adam Warlock.”

Su Ming put down his wine glass and said calmly, then shook his head:

"But the smartest person is Ao Shutu. Just through some of the rescue processes I described, she judged that I supported the eternal ascendancy, and immediately expressed that she was not interested in that position, effectively avoiding a fire in the backyard of her home. Possibility is worthy of being the oldest god on earth and the most powerful person in the first generation of god war."

"So you made eternity laugh while the two parties reached a deal with each other." Gin sighed, drank the wine in one gulp, and topped it up again: "You and him are good friends now? Why? Is it always so circuitous to deal with these cosmic entities?"

"Friends don't really count, they are just stakeholders. As for guessing riddles, you can think of this as a test of each other's IQ, haha."

Su Ming answered her naturally and touched her long platinum hair:

"If we don't even have this tacit understanding, wouldn't future cooperation be even more nonsense? Besides, I tickled him, which didn't hurt him and made him very happy, right? My invitation to him to attend Wade's wedding was a sign of Well, he accepted it, which shows his intention.”

The Valkyrie nodded, and that would be true if she said so: "And you also concealed the fact that death was so close at hand."

"Please, Death is a woman who likes Wade. How smart do you really expect such a woman to go to bed with Wade?" Su Ming rolled his eyes. He was amused and kissed Cute again. Gin, it’s rare to see her looking confused, so she has a contrasting and cute feeling.

That's about it. Some things are really difficult to understand just by looking at the results. However, if you look at the death of the Life Tribunal and the vacancy of a certain position in this matter, it will be much clearer.

Gin's way of thinking is closer to that of a warrior, but it's just that he hasn't turned around.

Su Ming now has 40k Earth and six parallel worlds attached to it. These are the material universe, and the material universe requires a large number of operating rules, which is the maintenance of concepts.

For example, think of today's 40k multiverse as Deathstroke's manor, and those parallel worlds are the houses in the yard. Eternity is the housekeeper sent by the property, Infinity is the maid, Death is the gardener, Annihilation is the security guard, and Galactus is the chef and cleaner. They are all managed by the property manager's life court.

In the past, the butler had itchy hands and took something belonging to the manor. As the current owner of the manor, Deathstroke made a joke with him and scared him. If he handed it over, everything would be fine.

As for replacing Eternity, it's not that Su Ming can't do it, but that he doesn't want to do it.

Replacing a familiar character who you know everything about? Let the property management arrange for an unknown housekeeper to come over?

That meant that Su Ming had to find out again the weaknesses of the new replacement, find out if he was secretly working for bad people, and make a lot of new plans, which really caused trouble for himself.

So Su Ming's choice is another route, which is to win over Eternal as the housekeeper. Now that the property manager has passed away, whether he can support the housekeeper he is familiar with to run for that position is another matter. After all, it depends on the chairman of the property company Toaa. Opinion.

But as the owner of the only manor in the entire village, Deathstroke also had to express his stance, and he only needed to express his stance. In his opinion, the housekeeper also served as the property manager, which was fine.

Anyway, no matter who takes up the post of property manager, they will still have to serve the manor, so of course it is better to choose a familiar role.

Staying for eternity is the best choice after rational judgment. As for the death knell to take down the entire city in the future, whether to change the property company will be discussed later.

Throwing down the horn cup, Gin changed the topic. She leaned into the man's ear and whispered: "Let's not mention that. Speaking of which, I bought a new set of pajamas and put them in the bedroom. Do you want to see me wear them?"

"I really want to, but I'm afraid I can't do it today, my dear." Su Ming stood up and pointed out the window of the villa, which was a very spacious backyard: "Because another group of protagonists tomorrow has arrived."

As soon as he finished speaking, along with the transmitted blue light, a spaceship with beautiful lines landed in the backyard, spraying tail flames.

This is the Waverider and the Legends of Tomorrow team. Su Ming told Sarah before that she and Miss Sharp’s wedding can be held together with Deadpool. There is a good venue and emcee here, and the food and drinks are all provided by The knell comes out.

White Canary, who had few friends and originally planned to hold her wedding on a boat, could resist this temptation?

Seeing the hatch of the spaceship open, Sarah and her group stepped off the spacecraft, looking around curiously. Su Ming walked over with Gin and opened his warm arms:

"Welcome to the Marvel Multiverse, my 40k Earth."

"Oh, thank you, your home is beautiful." Sarah smiled and opened her arms, wanting to respond to the host's warm welcome.

However, she did not hug Su Ming, because the man passed her by, and the person she hugged was another death knell behind White Canary.

Cindy winked at Sarah as if her prank had succeeded, smiled, patted Su Ming on the back, and repeated Sarah's words loudly:

"Thank you for the welcome. Your home is beautiful."
