Chapter 145 Primordial Eternals and Return to Reality
"Do you mean...destiny?" Salomon encountered this word again. Whenever he said this word, he always felt like a cut was cut on the roof of his mouth, as if the smell of blood was blocking his throat.
.The last time I encountered this word was in The Coming of Thunder , when the Sorcerer Supreme used the Eye of Agamotto to spy on all the possibilities, and all Jane Foster would fall in love with Thor. This situation is very
It's weird, but the word "fate" is indeed the most accurate explanation.
Randolph continued to explain. "You were born with external intervention," he said, "so a line in your destiny is already predetermined. You can imagine it as countless rays emanating from the endpoints of a line segment. You also
There are other possibilities, but on this straight line, your fate is destined. This is definitely not something that humans can understand, because humans rely on logic to accept external information, but in time, the causal relationship is
Inverted, the future determines the past, and the past is the future.”
Randolph's words made Salomon a little confused, but he still roughly understood what Randolph meant - because he in the future can pass through that door, so for him in the future, he now is the future.
His future. In order to achieve the cycle of time, one of all possibilities for Salomon's future has been determined.
"You can do it." Randolph interrupted Salomon's thinking, "because you have already done it. After that, you can truly control your destiny. Before that, keep your thirst for knowledge and curiosity.
, that is your only way to pass through the ultimate gate."
Randolph ended the conversation before Tituba came back. He said goodbye to Salomon because he had to go to town to do some errands. "You can find some books on the shelf to read." Randolph said, "That's what I did for
The knowledge in books written without reading the same newspapers every day will be of great use to you."
After saying that, he went out on his own. "Sir." Tituba seemed a little shy, "Do you need anything else?"
"Any more sugar?" Salomon asked. "I always think I need more sugar in my tea. And do you know what Mr. Carter is going to do? And Abigail, do you know where she is?"
?"
"I don't know." Tituba shook her head, "I haven't seen Miss Abigail for a day, and I don't know what the master is going to do."
"Okay." The Mystic Mage narrowed his eyes, "Can you please remind me after Coulson and Natasha wake up? I think they must have a lot of questions to ask."
"certainly."
The mystic spent the whole morning on Randolph Carter's bookshelf. He found the spell Nyarlathotep used last night from a handwritten book on the bookshelf. The spell was called "
"Cloak of Fire" uses power derived from Cthurgia, a huge mass of burning material that lives near Fomalhaut. It is one of the Old Ones. According to rumors, this old
The Sun Dominators seem to have a bad relationship with Nyarlathotep, but no one can be sure of the accuracy of these messages. After all, those who care about these gossips cannot withstand the high temperature of Cthugha.
After lunch time, Randolph did not come back, but Colson and Natasha woke up from their slumber. They were indeed full of doubts. Colson had already become confused after witnessing Nyarlathotep's monster incarnation.
Having forgotten part of what happened last night, Natasha said that she had lost her memory after the attack, and Salomon had no choice but to tell them the part of the truth that he could reveal.
However, even he himself had many unanswered questions, and there was not much information he could tell them. After they had a not-so-good lunch, Coulson and Natasha wanted to borrow Lun's book.
Dolf's books, but Salomon stopped them - their souls had just been exchanged, Coulson had witnessed the horrific scene with his own eyes, and his sanity was already hovering on the edge of madness. Now read those books.
Books just drive them completely crazy.
Coulson also brought the dog over. Without Jones, the stray dog, Salomon might have been helpless against the Avatar of Naija last night. He fulfilled his promise and helped wash the stray dog in the garden.
Bath Jones gently bit Salomon's palm, seemingly very satisfied with the mystic's service.
In the evening, Randolph came back. He called the strangers to board his carriage parked outside the mansion. He was going to take the strangers to the stone tower in the wilderness east of Salem Village. After Salomon boarded the carriage, he
He saw Abigail wrapped in a blanket. Her face was pale and she seemed to be immersed in a nightmare from which she could not wake up.
"The effect of this reality is about to disappear," Randolph said. "She has begun to gradually recall what happened in 1692. We need to move faster. This is the last reset."
Randolph and Salomon did not explain to the agents what "reset" meant. The mystic quickly pulled them into the carriage. Randolph drove the carriage through the fanatical residents and walked towards the village to the east. That place
The stone tower was used before by Randolph and later found by Colson. It was a cylindrical gray stone tower built by the Indians. It is said that these stone towers were observatories used by the Indians to observe the position of the sun and stars. Later, with the colonization
After the invaders invaded, the Indians were forced to abandon this place, and the abandoned stone tower was used as a ceremony venue.
Agent Coulson did find people to build the altar. In order to make his words credible, Nyarlathotep told the mystic mage this information. Later, after Coulson woke up, he also proved that the altar had been
The fact that the construction was completed. It was not until night fell, the black shadow spread from the eastern land to the west, and all the sunlight was swallowed up, that Randolph Carter led the strangers to the vicinity of the stone tower.
The Mystic left Coulson and Natasha under the stone tower, and told them not to go up the stone tower no matter what happened. He and Randolph stepped on the stairs, holding Abigail wrapped in a blanket.
According to Randolph, this ceremony is a special case, because Abigail is both the target and the sacrifice. If Salomon wants to summon Yog-Sothoth, it is best to prepare in advance.
A satisfying sacrifice for the unity of all things.
Salomon watched as Randolph performed the ritual. He put his hand on his head and used his thumb and forefinger to construct an equilateral triangle. He then flipped the triangle in his right hand, creating a parallelogram, and then flipped the triangle in his left hand, creating a downward downwards.
An equilateral triangle. Randolph placed this equilateral triangle on his forehead. While doing these actions, he recited the "Yog-Sothoth Magic" incantation.
"Hear my call! Lord of the Endless Void! Star Shifter! Solid Foundation! Controller of Earthquakes! Conqueror of Terror! Creator of Pain! Destroyer! Victor of Glory! Son of Void and Chaos! Guardian of the Abyss
!Original God of Darkness! Lord of Dimensions! Enigmatic Wise One! Guardian of Secrets! Lord of Labyrinth! Master of Angle! God of Nighthawks! The Last Tip! Lord of Doors! Pathfinder! Almighty Immortality of the Beginning
Lord! Umer At Tavel! Iak-Sathath!! Yog-Sothoth NAFL'FTHAGN!!! Your servants call to you!"
Immediately afterwards, a strange sound appeared, like the whistle of a train and noisy conversations. The Mystic could clearly hear someone mentioning St. Louis Union Station. Then, along with this noise, the originally dark starry sky became brighter.
It seemed as if everyone had spent a night in an instant. At Salomon's feet, a stubborn weed poked its head out from the gap between the stone bricks. It shrank back into the accumulated dust and turned into a tree again.
Grass seeds.
Time became intermittent, and the sky became bright and dark. Being in this turbulent flow, Salomon could only rely on the changes in the outside world to judge. He saw many strange creatures that seemed to jump out of time, but then disappeared again.
He disappeared, and everything around the stone tower became chaotic. The mystic even saw a Ford car driving past his eyes. It seemed that he could reach the little boy sitting in the child seat in the back seat just by stretching out his hand.
Ice cream in hand.
Finally, these phenomena became blurred, and Salomon seemed to be observing the world through a layer of frosted glass. After Randolph's spell ended, a faint light appeared on the sky, whether it was breakfast or dusk, although this light was not
It was not strong, but it shone directly into the eyes, making it difficult to open one's eyes. The mystic mage saw a human silhouette in the blur, which was at least taller than ordinary people.
Salomon knew what it was, and Randolph Carter had taught him how to do it. The incarnation of Yog-Sothoth did not take Abigail Williams away when it first arrived;
A barking dog—Jones—was dragged out of the void. This scene was somewhat comical, with the great omniscient and omnipotent God grabbing a struggling dog.
Finally, Jones stopped wailing and lowered his head in grievance. No matter how stupid Salomon was at this time, he knew that Jones, the stray dog, was definitely not an ordinary dog. This was a dog that could hurt the incarnation of Naija.
"This is just Nyarlathotep's prank, don't worry about it," the Ancient Eternal said.
The mystic mage lowered his head, not looking directly at the incarnation of Yog-Sothoth. However, a force forced him to raise his head and look at Tavel At Umr.
"The debt you owe has been paid off." The voice came into Salomon's ears from the thick light gray fabric wrapping Tawer Yat Umr's face, "but you still have questions."
"Yes, my dear Ancient One," Salomon said, "there are many."
"I know your doubts, but you can't get the answer here." The tall ancient immortal pointed his finger at the mystic's chest, and a silver key was hung on the mystic's neck along with a small chain.
, "This is the starting point and the end. You long to walk in the starry sky and understand the mystery of each star; you long to delve into the secrets behind each spell and keep them in your mind; you long to descend to the Satanic Throne of Hell.
, looking at this planet from the endless abyss; you are eager to walk along the long river of time and space and talk to the most knowledgeable people in the world. This is your path, your destiny, when you get this key
, your destiny is divided."
——————————————
Coulson stood up covering his head. The stone tower behind him had become a pile of ruins. What appeared in front of him was a long gray concrete road, and Salomon was standing on the side of the road with his back to him. Coulson
Erson shook Natasha awake.
"Where are we?" he asked the mystic.
"Welcome to 2011." Salomon turned around, the silver key on his chest shining in the morning light, "We are back."
