"I know you are in a hurry, but don't worry. There is no sign of CAAT yet. I am being followed by anti-everything agents. Why don't I go to the sewers and smoke a cigarette?"
Cigarette butts were shining in the dark underground space. Su Ming planned to get more information from Faris' mouth:
"But since you're here, it's good news. Tell me, in the history you know, how did I defeat anti-everything?"
It is not impossible to shoot an arrow first and then draw a target. This is also the simplest way to use the timeline. Taking it one step further is a powerful means of manipulating the law of cause and effect.
Of course, the plan is one thing, and the performance of the person executing the plan is another matter. Even if it is the same plan, Deathstroke's execution and Batman's execution are definitely two completely different aspects.
The creature like a pitcher plant squirmed for a while. It didn't have a head, so it had no expression. However, the color of its body seemed to change with its emotions, and now it turned into a light cyan.
"Sorry, I only know the outcome of the matter, but not the specific process, because what happened to you is too mysterious, and it seems to be shrouded in darkness to me."
It turns out that it was Su Ming's mystical style that hindered him. Aliens in the future still don't know what he did.
"Okay, it sounds like my style, haha." Deathstroke nodded. Since there is no way to get information on a certain timeline in the future, it doesn't matter: "So you only know that when I deal with TOBA and anti-everything
, was attacked by CAAT, and then I died, right?"
"Well, strictly speaking, he is missing, Mr. Deathstroke." Nepenthes raised a tentacle and gestured in the air: "But if it has been missing for 150 million years, it is a high probability."
As it spoke, its palm-like tentacle blades turned over, which meant that the car or ship had capsized.
"Hey!"
The symbiote doesn't see it that way. With its own help, even if the host lives in the void for 150 million years, it won't be a big problem.
How dare this alien look down on its host? It strongly recommends eating this pitcher plant now. Even if the host does not have an organ like a brain, it can be used to grind its teeth.
"If I really want to be trapped in the void alone for 150 million years, I'm afraid I will go crazy, or lose my humanity and turn into something else." Su Ming comforted his symbiote and rubbed the bean sprouts with his hands.
Head: "So what Farris said is right. Even if I'm missing for such a long time, even if I'm still alive, there's a high probability that I'm not myself."
Only when people live in society can they retain their humanity, but if they live in a void of absolute silence and loneliness, all senses will gradually degrade, just like a fish living in an underground river without eyes.
"Huh." The symbiote said that the host was not a person. It and the cloak would definitely be around, so what the alien said was not credible at all.
Although the host has received information from the comics in its previous life, this Faris should be a friendly alien, but who can guarantee that it is not controlled by something in reality? Or that it has its own agenda?
Even if it is a reinforcement or a messenger sent by TOAA, don't forget that TOAA and humans are not of the same mind.
While cooperating and taking advantage, we must also be vigilant and keep our distance.
"I know."
The communication between Deathstroke and the symbiote was silent, and the pitcher plant alien in front of him didn't notice it at all. It was still ashamed of not providing effective information.
However, the male human quickly spoke up and found a place for it to get off. He only heard him say:
"Actually, the information you brought is enough. I can deduce something, that is, I found a way to restrain the counter-attack and forced TOBA to exit the field personally. But while the two sides were competing, CAAT made a sneak attack.
Me, so it follows that as long as I don’t get entangled with the Anti-All, or don’t give TOBA a chance to end, then I will most likely be able to avoid this happening.”
"It makes sense. Your analysis is correct, but this is just a hypothesis. Maybe CAAT is already staring at you now." Faris's body changed color again, turning into lavender: "So I suggest you stay here for the time being.
If we retreat and stagger this timeline, maybe TOBA will confront CAAT first."
"Not likely, my future friend."
Deathstroke shook his head, took a puff of cigarette, and looked at the black pool water that gradually calmed down in front of him:
"TOBA is a weapon without a 'heart', but that doesn't mean it has no brain. Its purpose is to become the only 'last one' that exists. The erasure work carried out by CAAT at this time is beneficial to it. It is completely
You can wait quietly until the crown completes most of the things for it."
Speaking of which, TOBA's motivation is a bit like that of Prolaya, both of which are chasing all things to return to the void, but it's just stronger.
"Alas." The alien sighed, and its body wilted a little, like a pear that had been frozen and then thawed.
It knows that Deathstroke is right, but this fact is a bit too cruel.
"Okay, don't be downcast, am I not dead yet? And as the Supreme Mage, what I am best at is finding opportunities in the timeline." Su Ming smiled and raised his hand to pat the belly of the pitcher plant.
Then he pinched the cigarette butt and put it away: "Your message has been delivered, can you still return to the Ninth Sky now?"
"No, I used the equipment on the Observer, which also caused the spacecraft to overload and collide with an asteroid. This time travel is a one-way ticket, because I want to enter the world of gods. With the world of our time,
Technology is very difficult, and I’m lucky enough to get here.”
The alien who claimed to be human had two tentacles spread out, and he admitted in a very honest manner that he was just here to deliver the message desperately, and he never thought about going back:
"Anyway, my mission is accomplished. If I can change the tragic future and prevent the Ninth Firmament from appearing, then my efforts will have been in vain."
"You are such a good person." Su Ming touched his chin, and he was very moved: "If you can return to the Ninth Sky, I would like to go over with you and take a look. Maybe some operations can be performed there.
, it’s like jumping out of the chessboard to lay out the plan, but now it seems there is no chance.”
Deathstroke once read a story, which seemed to be about a chess master who wanted to compete with a foreign master. The latter knew that he could not win on the chessboard, so he poisoned his opponent outside the chessboard, and thus won.
For opponents that are difficult to defeat on the chessboard, it is okay to use external moves. Su Mingke does not reject dark methods at all, but unfortunately this path seems to be unavailable today.
