Up to this point, Richard still felt that this was like a dream. But four world-destroying rays hit Lucifer's body at the same time, and it was impossible for him to resist in his current state.
Richard watched with his own eyes as Lucifer's body was shattered under the attack of the four Ultraman's rays of light, his body was disintegrated, the darkness was purified, and his ferocious eyes and malice also dissipated in the light.
Richard saw that the atoms that made up the dark giant were obliterated until the existence named "Lucifer" was evaporated with a shock wave that seemed to sweep through the starry sky.
Although it felt like a dream, this time it was really over. Dark Lucifer was defeated. He defeated the ultimate enemy who had been controlling everything behind the scenes from beginning to end. This time his mission was truly over.
The last trace of Lucifer's ashes also dissipated. The three Ultraman except Noah looked at each other. In the end, they didn't say anything to each other. They just silently transformed into light again, each shooting in different directions.
It entered the universe and disappeared without a trace.
From beginning to end, they did not exchange a single word, as if verbal communication was redundant and unnecessary for individuals at their level.
Guarding this starry sky and this universe is their common responsibility and mission. Together they sensed the crisis facing this universe and came to solve the problem. Now that the problem has been solved, they all still have their respective missions calling.
In fact, when Richard brought Lucifer to this world and this time and space, he originally thought about the possibility of encountering the original Noah, but it seems that this did not happen.
He didn't know whether he had replaced Noah's position in this story, or whether Noah in this time and space was wandering in other parallel universes. If that was the case, it would not be surprising. After all, the great god Noah was originally the god of dragons.
A type with no end in sight, his miracles can be found in countless parallel worlds in later generations.
Anyway, none of this matters anymore.
The Noah's Wings behind Richard shone again, and the energy of time and space transformed into a milky white lightsaber that converged in his hand. He raised the sword and cut a rift in the space.
Noah's body turned into a ball of white light, and he rushed into the crack. The crack closed behind him, and in front of him was the endless flow of time and space, and the tunnel with no end in sight.
The problem that had been plaguing him was finally solved. The enemy was defeated, and he now felt freer than ever before. He didn't want to think about anything or do anything. He just wanted to go back to his warm home immediately, make a cup of coffee, and watch.
Ganata ran around the living room holding the snack bag, listening to Jessica continue to complain about how heavy her work tasks were...
But it seems that this will have to wait a little longer.
There is one last accident waiting for him.
After passing through the multidimensional barrier and returning to the Marvel multiverse, Richard was locking his own world along the original path when some force suddenly intercepted him.
Or to be more precise, it should be "friendly" to keep him.
The ball of light was released, and Noah, who was moving rapidly, stopped in the void in the gap between the multi-dimensional worlds.
He floated on the spot, raised his head, and what appeared in front of him was an extremely huge face, a golden face with human-like facial features.
Richard noticed that there were two other faces on the left and right sides of his face. His body was made of pure gold, so big that the boundary could not be seen, and it was even more exaggerated than the Eradicator who had come to the earth before.
Of course Richard knew such a famous and well-connected character.
This is a giant with the title of "Judgment of the Living", the ruler of all multiverses, the omnipotent universe-level supervisor and controller.
The court of life.
Richard crossed his arms, looked at the big face and said calmly: "I'm still curious when you plan to come to me."
Speaking of which, Ultraman should be regarded as an outlier in the Marvel Universe, as are Lucifer and Zaki. As the ruler of the almighty universe, it is a bit strange that the Life Tribunal has allowed them to run amok here.
The Life Tribunal spoke. Or to be more precise, he was only conveying meaning rather than using language. It was in a more direct form that Richard directly understood the idea he wanted to express.
"That is the meaning of the Supreme Being." The Life Tribunal said, "I just obeyed the arrangements of the Supreme Being. But all this time, I actually didn't understand his intention. Why did I let you go and why did you let you fight with each other in our world?
.”
Richard knew that the "supreme being" he was talking about must be the real ceiling of the Marvel Universe, and was jokingly called the "OAA" of the Marvel Writers Department.
But the OAA ordered the Life Tribunal not to interfere in their affairs? Why?
Richard felt suspicious. To conventional beings, beings like him and Lucifer were almost almighty and invincible gods, but to OAA, they were nothing more than grasshoppers that jumped high.
Did they have any reason to draw the OAA's attention?
"I haven't understood it for a long time, but that's just because I don't have enough realm to see what the supreme being sees." The Life Tribunal looked down at Noah and said lightly, "But seeing you now, I probably
I understand. I can finally see your trajectory clearly and see your significance under the great plan of existence."
"Appreciate further details."
The court of life looked directly at him.
"Because of your future, your mission, outsider." He said, "Everything about you was too hazy for me to see clearly before, but now it's OK. I can see your future, and you will
How will we defend the world we live in, stand up and maintain order, just like fighting for our own world."
He paused and continued: "I saw you become a defender, the controller of reality, the leader of countless multiverses, and the guardian of the omnipotent world."
This was unexpected. But Richard probably understood what he was talking about: "Uh... you mean..."
"Exactly where I am now." The Life Tribunal said calmly, "The 'Life Tribunal', the ultimate judge, is in charge of everything in the almighty world."
Richard was stunned.
OAA intends to appoint him to succeed the Tribunal of Life?
Darling, this is serious.
The position of the Life Tribunal not only means endless divine power, but also the administrator of the Marvel Omniverse. That is a realm that he has never imagined. With this level of divine power, facing the same level of road just now
As for Lucifer, he can produce 10,000 Lucifers in a matter of seconds.
If that's your future, that sounds good.
"I know." Richard smiled easily, "Then I will be ready. But before that, if there is nothing else, I have to go back."
"You're not surprised at all?"
"Surprised, of course surprised." Richard said, "But that's in the future, isn't it? So we'll wait until that day to decide."
The Life Tribunal was silent for a moment and asked: "You have had a long time and endless divine power for mortals. But after every battle, you will continue to return to your small life with ordinary humans.
.”
"Actually, it's not that ordinary." Richard shrugged, "Maybe you should change your perspective occasionally. The same goes for the gods of the universe and the multiverse. I don't think there is much difference between you all-powerful big shots.
. Divine power and realm have given you a higher vision, but they have also taken away other things. You are all immersed in your own world, and the only things you care about are vision, laws, maintaining order, etc., as if this is
It's all yours.
I’m not saying that I have any objections to this, but at least for me, that kind of life is too gloomy, without waves, without fun, without any excitement at all.”
The court of life was silent.
"Okay, that's what I want to say." Richard said, "So if there's nothing else, I'll leave first. Let's talk later."
Going back to the discussion, Richard is probably the first person to say this to the Tribunal of Life since the existence of the Almighty Universe. Not everyone can get the opportunity to meet such a big boss as the Tribunal.
After saying that, he left, leaving the Life Court behind, and found his own earth, which was also the coordinates of his home, in the endless multidimensional world.
There is no more dark giant, no entanglement, no inevitable battle waiting for him to fight.
He felt unprecedentedly free.
...
A few days later.
"Can you really do it?" Gwen stared at Richard with big emerald eyes, a look of disbelief on her face.
"Of course." Richard nodded affirmatively, "Just like I promised before. Now I can easily trace back to the coordinates of your world through you, and I can also open the barrier between the two worlds to let anyone
People come and go.
In other words, you can go home now if you want."
"Oh my god, can I go home?"
"Yes, anytime."
"I...I have to think about it." Gwen covered her mouth, "I have to...I'm sorry it was just too sudden..."
"Of course." Richard smiled, "Any time, as long as you are prepared."
"Thank you." Gwen sat back on her bed, holding her forehead, "All of this, my experience here, everything... This is just like a dream. Do you understand,
Mr. Li? It feels like it was a dream I had one night, and when I woke up, there was nothing left.
But I have thought more than once, maybe this dream is what I want? Maybe this is the life I want, a projection of my ideal... I don’t know.”
She looked a little overwhelmed.
"Well, of course I still have to go back. I have to go back and see what my life is like now, and dad... God, I don't know what he will do if I've been away for so long, right
To him, I must have been dead long ago..."
"Gwen." Richard patted her shoulder, "Calm down, don't get too excited. You may have misunderstood something, but I never said you would never come back after you go back."
Gwen was stunned: "Huh?"
"I said, I can open the passage between the two worlds at any time." Richard said, "This means that I can send you back at any time, and I can also bring you back at any time."
Gwen blinked her big eyes and seemed unable to react.
"It means," Richard smiled, "you don't want to take the opportunity to escape the 'movie night' every weekend at the manor, right? If so, then you may be disappointed."
"Oh my god, this is really...I don't know what to say."
Gwen gave him a big hug.
"Thank you, Mr. Li."
"This is what I promised a long time ago." Richard patted her back, "In fact, after thinking about it, I think the reason why you are here may have something to do with me."
"Huh?" Gwen was a little confused.
"After achieving the current state, I can see some of the direction of time and space more or less clearly, including the past and future of this world." Richard explained, "I can see the time and space in the multiverse and find disordered.asxs., many individuals.
The whole world has been affected... It's because of me and those beings who shouldn't be in this world.
Our appearance has slightly interfered with the connection between parallel universes, and the world has experienced a slight deflection. In fact, it is not just you. There are also many people in this world who should not be here, or some who should be there.
This thing has disappeared.”
Gwen looked a little confused. Apparently the topic was a little too obscure for her.
"But in terms of results, I think this is also a gift. At least we know each other, right?" Richard smiled, "More encounters, more friends."
Gwen understood here. She smiled and nodded vigorously: "Yes."
Indeed, no matter what the process was, she was much happier here than in her own world.
This is simply what her ideal life would look like.
So that afternoon, Gwen went back, returning to her own world, her relatives and friends after a long absence.
Of course it was only temporary. She said she just wanted to stay there for a while and she would come back.
After seeing Gwen off, Richard made himself a cup of coffee, quietly sat on the deck chair in the backyard of the manor and basked in the sun leisurely.
"Enjoying retirement, huh?"
A female voice came from beside him. Richard glanced sideways and saw a tall, long-legged girl standing next to him with her hands on her hips, a cold look on her face.
Okay, that's Dark Zaki.
Richard rolled his eyes.
"So now that Lucifer has been defeated, why are you still staying here?" Richard asked, "If you are planning to eat and drink here and wait to die..."
"Huh? Stop joking." Zaki snorted and puffed up his proud chest, "I said, one day I will defeat you with my own hands! I will absorb your light and become the true ultimate existence! In
I won’t leave until I achieve that goal!”
Richard was speechless.
It sounds like he never plans to leave.
Forget it, she risked her life to help a lot in the last battle anyway, so since she likes it, just let her go.
Moreover, the previous "Ego with Infinite Rebirth" project also needed Zaki's help. This research has made great progress, and Ego injected with the alien beast factor has been able to achieve self-healing to a certain extent. Now Richard
As Noah's light acts as an inhibitor, the side effects of the alien beast factor can basically be completely eliminated.
It won't be long before this continues, and a living planet named Ego, which can be infinitely regenerated and can never be eaten, should be freshly baked.
After sitting there for a while, the balcony door was opened. Ganata looked weird and walked out with her little hands covering her stomach, looking a little weird.
It's rare to see that she didn't hold a dozen snack bags in her hands this time.
Richard asked strangely: "Carrie, what's the matter?"
Could it be that this posture is caused by eating something bad and causing a stomach upset?
Oh, how is that possible?
Can swallowing a girl cause stomach upset?
Even if he didn't swallow a dark Lucifer alive, right?
"That...that...Richard..."
Ganata's face was red and her voice was as low as a mosquito.
Richard had never seen her react like this.
Could it be that he was injured in the previous battle?
No, it's not like...
Richard stood up and took her hand: "Calm down Carrie, tell me what's going on?"
Ganata took a deep breath, but did not dare to look directly into his eyes. She only lowered her head and whispered: "I, I, I... I seem to be pregnant..."
Richard: "??????"
At the first moment, he almost jumped out of fright.
But he soon calmed down.
No, calm down, calm down.
He remembered that Uncle Tun and Mei Tun were both parthenogenous protoss.
Tunmei was originally a cosmic tapeworm derived from Uncle Tun's belly, and then slowly grew up and became the cute look she is now.
Yes, this is definitely a normal physiological phenomenon of the Planet Devourer Protoss. It will appear when you reach a certain age, just like a human girl visiting relatives every month. There is nothing strange about it.
Of course it has nothing to do with Mr. Li...
Richard even found it a bit funny after he calmed down.
Really, he was so frightened as soon as Tunmei opened her mouth, and he didn't know what he was feeling guilty about. He obviously knew that he had done nothing bad...
As a result, Ganata continued to say: "These days, I suddenly feel very hungry, even hungrier than usual. So I checked myself.
And didn’t we merge before? I think it must have been that part of our energy and some parts related to the origin of life overlapped at that time, so it seems that some fragments of your light have been left in my cosmic energy. So.
.....so......"
Richard suddenly had an extremely ominous premonition.
Danger!
Ganata blushed extremely and tugged at the hem of her skirt in confusion.
"...so it seems like this is our baby..."
Richard: "???????????????"
Holy shit... is there such an operation?
In the conscience of heaven and earth, I, Mr. Li, really didn’t do anything!
He remained in a semi-petrified state and looked to his side, seeing Zaki looking at him with his hands on his hips and a gloating smile on his face, his eyes full of ridicule.
Richard suddenly had a premonition.
It seems that his future life... may not be as smooth as imagined.
