Mrs. Xanadu has a deep "evil relationship" with Stranger.
As early as the time of King Arthur, the Stranger had directly tricked her once.
At that time, the 15-year-old forest maiden Xianimiao was the lover of Merlin, who was in his 80s and looked like Gandalf.
In order to protect Camelot (King Arthur's kingdom), Merlin summoned his half-brother, the demon prince Etrigan, from hell to the human world, and forcibly fused with King Arthur's knight Jason Blood.
Merlin wants to create a "super magic weapon" that can be controlled and has the power of the Demon King.
Use this weapon to deal with Nimue's second sister Morgana.
The Stranger was guided by the Voice of Heaven and hoped to "liberate" Jason Blood and Etrigan, the future superheroes of the 21st century.
He found Nimue, stirred up trouble, and asked her to trick Merlin to death (not completely).
As a price, the female fairy Nimue lost her magic power.
Later, they met in the capital of the Yuan Dynasty and in Paris, France during the Louis XVI period.
While in France, Mrs. Xanadu missed her old relationship and used a magic cloak to sneak into the castle and prepare to rescue the "Beheaded Queen". However, she was interrupted by a stranger who did not want "history" to be changed, and she was arrested and imprisoned.
It was also that time when Xanadu was on the verge of despair and summoned his second sister to die. He relied on tarot cards to win the biggest and hardest support in his life, gain immortality and restore his magic power.
It wasn't until today that Mrs. Shangdu discovered that he had deliberately tricked her during the Yuan Dynasty.
"I'm sorry, I have to follow the instructions of the voice of heaven and protect my destiny from being changed." There was a faint apology in Stranger's eyes, but his tone was as solid as a rock, without any regret.
"You are a magician, but you just lack magic power. If you are given a magic pot, you will definitely regard it as your own magic weapon."
Compared with the "Destined Spell" which is related to the path of the mage, the "Destined Magic Device" is slightly more arbitrary.
It's not even a necessity for mages.
It mainly depends on the personal needs of the lawyer.
The reason for the emergence of the natal magic weapon is that some extremely talented mages, whose realm is close to that of divine wizards, have mastered magical power that is so powerful that the human body cannot withstand that kind of power.
Therefore, they transfer their power to a magical artifact and can give up their physical body if necessary.
The most typical one is the god-king Naboo.
His helmet is his natal magical artifact. His magic, thinking, spirit, divinity, vitality, vitality and other life elements are all integrated into the helmet.
It can be said that he is a helmet now, and it is not wrong to call him a "helmet guy".
Naboo is the God-King of Order. Since he is the God-King, there are naturally other gods of order.
Like Naboo, they are all humans who became gods, giving up their physical bodies and placing their magic power on gloves, cloaks, armor, gold shorts, and boots forged from n metal.
All these artifacts plus Naboo's helmet can be combined into an invincible "God of Order Set", which is Naboo's strongest state.
In addition to Naboo, Harley also knew that Sage Aoqi, "the most promising person in our generation to ascend to the throne of God", owned a "Secret Seal of Seven". He had asked her for n metal, so she could know it.
Zha Kang’s zippo lighter is also a natal magic weapon.
However, Harley felt that Zha Kang probably wouldn't be able to use it because he had too little magic power.
Less magic power puts less stress on the body.
But without enough magic power, it is impossible to integrate the laws into the sea of laws of the universe, which means that it is impossible to become a god.
That's too far.
The stranger's judgment back then was very accurate. The above mentioned lady was in the state of being a "magician without any magic power". If she bought the emerald magic pot, she would definitely turn it into her own natal magic weapon.
"With Kublai Khan's favor towards you, as long as you see the magic pot before I start taking action, once you ask for it, the Great Khan will reward it to you without hesitation.
Once you get the magic pot, you will definitely turn it into a natal magic device that contains your soul and magic power.
Then, the Magic Pot could not be brought to the West by Marco Polo.
When railway engineer Alan Scott encountered a train accident in the 1930s, he was unable to pick up the fragments of the Heart of the Star that he had transformed into a lantern.
Without the green light, Alan would die in a car accident like hundreds of ordinary people on the train.
Without Alan, there would be no heroic age today, and there would be no heroes who have stood up in countless crises (ps).
This is why the Voice of Heaven guided me to prevent you from destroying the ‘Destiny’.”
The stranger said these words seriously. Not to mention Madam Xanadu's disbelief, even Alan Scott himself looked suspicious.
"Stranger, you think too highly of me. I'm not as great as you say." Old Green Lantern said sarcastically: "I believe that even without me, the heroes will still stick to their ideals and take a crucial step.
.”
"This is the arrangement of the Voice of Heaven. The Voice of Heaven never lies." Stranger looked at him and said sincerely: "Alan, you underestimate yourself. I have been on Earth 2 for a long time, and I know how much you treat your descendants.
Heroic influence.
Old Superman personally admitted that it was you who inspired him and made him what he is now."
Old Green Lantern's face turned red and he waved his hands repeatedly, "That's too much praise. I did what I should do and I don't deserve to be so boastful."
Harley looked at Old Green Lantern and then at Stranger, feeling a little more in awe of the voice of heaven.
Because she knew the stranger didn't lie.
When she seized the power of Black Manhattan, she had an in-depth conversation with Dr. Manhattan.
Dr. Manhattan tells the story of why and how he merged the 'D Master Universe' and the 'Watchmen Universe'.
The reason is Superman. Superman represents infinite hope and can completely solve the "self-destruction crisis" of the Watcher Earth, including but not limited to the nuclear bomb crisis.
Before merging the universes, Dr. Manhattan also tested Superman's influence on the D-universe: Dr. Manhattan took away the Green Lantern in the 1930s, causing Alan Scott to die in a train crash and losing the guidance of the old Green Lantern. The Kryptonians have not changed.
He becomes Superman, and the future D universe is easily destroyed by him; if he does not take away the lantern, Alan becomes the Green Lantern, and the Kryptonian becomes Superman, leading all the heroes in the future to resist his crisis of destroying the D universe.
Doctor Manhattan is mainly testing Superman's influence on the D universe.
Finally, he came to the conclusion that "Superman is the key element of the universe".
But his testing process also revealed a truth: Alan Scott has a great influence on Superman and future heroes.
Combining the Stranger's remarks at this time, Harley can draw two conclusions: 1. God is very awesome, and the little black hands have reached thousands of years away; 2. Earth 0 comes from Earth 2, the D universe fused by Dr. Manhattan,
Probably Earth 2!
The fusion of the universe is not what she thought a few years ago. The two material universes are like two lumps of mud kneaded into one big lump.
The original main universe was Earth 2. Dr. Manhattan first verified his ideas on Earth 2, then merged the information from Earth 2 and the information from the Watcher universe into a river of time, and finally integrated the river of time into the Wantian Instrument.
The material universe Earth 0!
As for Xanadu, Stranger and others
Eighty percent of them are the same as the old Flash and the old Green Lantern. They are immigrants from Earth 2, and their memories are slightly modified along with reality.
"Stranger, did you and Shangdu experience those 'ancient' past events on Earth 2?" Harley asked.
Stranger said meaningfully: "I have always been in the main universe! It is not me who has changed."
Harley frowned and said, "Did Dr. Manhattan say to Earth 2, 'Go away, I want your seat,' and then kicked Earth 2 away.
The house flew away, but you inside stayed where you were.
When Dr. Manhattan rolled out Earth 0 with his hands, placed it in the center of the Ten Thousand Celestial Instruments, and then covered you in it?"
"What weird words are you talking about?" Madam Xanadu frowned.
Harley waved her hands and just stared at the stranger.
Xanadu's realm is still a bit low, and his understanding of the secrets of the multiverse is limited.
The stranger frowned and thought for a while, then said: "Although what you said is wrong, you can still understand it this way.
The fusion of the universe is never a single event. It seems that only Earth 0 is affected, but in fact the entire Wantianyi has changed at that moment.
Crisis on Infinite Earths will not happen 'by chance' at this time for no reason."
"I don't want to hear about the fusion of the universe!" Xanadu took another step forward, grabbed the stranger's windbreaker, and asked loudly: "You want Marco Polo to get the magic pot.
And the reason he got it was because he saved the imperial concubine when she was raped by an assassin.
The Great Khan asked Marco Polo to go to the treasury to select treasures as a reward, and he chose the magic pot.
Let me ask you, was it you who arranged the scene where the imperial concubine was raped in her own palace (ps)?"
"Uh, what kind of bad script is this? It's so unreasonable for a noble concubine to be assassinated by an assassin in the palace." Harry was speechless.
"Those assassins, like you, are all masters of martial arts. They came from the most terrifying killer organization in the world at that time, the Ghost of the Forest." Xanadu explained, and then stared at the stranger with cold eyes, "The Imperial Concubine is my wife.
China’s best friend!”
The stranger shook his head, "The assassin was not arranged by me."
"Really?" Xanadu's expression softened a little.
"I swear." The stranger said seriously.
Mrs. Xanadu let him go and stood there in a daze.
Harry was speechless as he watched. With his mind like this, no wonder he was tricked by the same person three times in a row.
"He didn't arrange the Three Palace Demons, but he brought Rachel there." She couldn't help but remind her.
"What?" She didn't even react and looked at her strangely, "What does this have to do with the Three Palace Demons?"
Harry's head hurt a little, and this guy couldn't help him up.
"Okay everyone, we've wasted enough time." Dr. Destiny clapped his hands, "Now that the antimatter electromagnetic storm is sweeping the world, we have to wake up the ghost quickly."
"If I can help, I'm willing to help." Old Green Lantern said with enthusiasm.
"Even if I can help, I won't help the ghost." Harley sneered.
"Then what are you here for?" Dr. Fate frowned.
"Watch the fun." Halli stood at the mouth of the well with her arms folded, smiling and looking relaxed.
"The world is waiting for us to save it." Old Green Lantern frowned.
"I don't care, and I can't care."
"Harley, you are not that kind of person. You are brave and fearless, not afraid of sacrifice, patriotic and caring for the people. You are a great hero." Old Green Lantern said sincerely.
"I used to be a hard-working hero who could sacrifice my life and shed my blood for the sake of my own world.
But what will be the result if I destroy the shadow demon, smoke the antimatter cloud, and fight against the monitor?"
Harley laughed at herself: "Whether I work hard or not, or how much I sacrifice, it doesn't matter, it won't affect the result.
My purpose from the beginning was to avoid restarting, but Earth 0 still cannot escape the restart ending; you try hard, but your Earth 2 still disappears; Uncle Sam also tries hard, but his Earth 10 still disappears.
In this case, what are we still trying to do?
Just lie down and let the big guys play their own games."
"If we work hard, we can at least change our own destiny." Old Green Lantern said seriously.
Harley sneered, "You have a Wildcat in the Justice Society, an ordinary girl, a new member who just joined. She didn't kill a single Shadow Demon or caused any harm to the Anti-Monitor.
But she survived and kept her original life in this world.
Old Superman has been fearlessly fighting on the front line from the beginning.
His efforts and achievements rank second among all heroes, second only to me, but his life leaves no trace.
You told me, this is called ‘trying to change your destiny’?”
－－－－－－Digression－－－－－
(ps: Mrs. Xanadu was originally a forest nymph, carefree, and she even found an old mage as her lover, and lived a very fulfilling life.
The first time Stranger found her, his target was Merlin, but he couldn't deal with Merlin, so he started a fight and encouraged Shangdu to do it.
Xanadu went to kill Merlin, but he also suffered backlash and lost all his magic power.
Later, Xanadu went to the Celestial Dynasty and became a female minister under Kublai Khan. She probably held an official position such as Qin Tianjian. She was famous and wealthy. She also had a good personal relationship with the imperial concubine, and her life was full of joy again.
Until the stranger arrives.
The stranger's goal this time is Kublai Khan's emerald magic pot.
If he doesn't come, the magic pot will definitely fall into Xanadu's hands.
He brought Marco Polo over, borrowed Marco Polo to get the magic pot, and brought the magic pot to the west.
As for Xanadu, as expected, he was once again tricked by strangers.
The stranger's method of obtaining the magic pot was very dark. What did dozens of assassins do to the imperial concubine? How could Kublai Khan endure it?
Stranger became a wanted criminal, and then Stranger found Xanadu and made her an accomplice.
Later, during the French Revolution, this plot was mentioned before. I won’t go into details. Xanadu finally got clever and deceived the second sister of Death into the chance of eternal life.
And in London and New York
In short, Xanadu is like a leek that has been cut several times by strangers.
It happened that Shang Du fell in love with Stranger from the first moment she saw him.
Of course, Xanadu is also a sentimental guy and has loved many people, men and women)
