Chapter 1059 - 99: Epilogue (Part 3)

~5 min read 851 words

Time has become a meaningless measure between different spaces and times.

In the blank of a moment, Lille recalled his life:

Lille Lee, an ordinary person affected by industrial waste, awakened from years of weakness after a long coma with the ability to traverse different worlds.

This is the Marvel World, where such an origin is quite common.

Attributing this traversing ability to superpower could easily explain everything, but Lille actually had a not-so-obvious personality trait:

He had a unique "technology purism."

This technology purism was not the Cyberpunk World’s monk-like vigilance against prosthetics. On the contrary, Lille was adept at using technology. This purism referred to his wariness towards all technologies he didn’t understand. If he especially couldn’t comprehend it, he would rather not use it.

Since the "superpower" veil of cross-dimensional technology had been lifted and turned into something that could be controlled through technical means, from that moment, he constantly pondered whether this "ability" was a technology he didn’t understand?

Ultimately, during the battle with Dalio, when Dalio disrupted the final explosion, he captured an anomaly:

At that moment, Dalio seemed to have a mysterious connection with the world outside the singularity, even being directly felt within the anomaly field surrounding the singularity. At the explosion’s instant, Lille also felt a connection between him and the world outside the singularity.

He was certain that this connection was almost related to the "system"!

In the vast white world, Lille began to regain his senses. He instinctively raised his hand, suddenly realizing his hand had become flesh!

Lille astonishingly touched his cheek with his hand, but found that he hadn’t reverted to a flesh-and-blood body—

Because his cheek was still cold steel!

Upon closer inspection, he discovered his current body was a fusion of flesh and mechanics, in a very abrupt, almost illogical manner, yet simply intuitive in its combination!

Realizing this, Lille immediately noticed something else: he saw his entire body, which meant he had just been looking into a mirror!

Then the world changed, becoming endless green hills, with distant snow-capped mountains towering in the background.

The sunlight was perfect, clouds drifting lazily, and as the wind blew, the lush grass swayed gently...

The water flowed, and the flowers bloomed.

This was a breathtakingly beautiful landscape, yet not something solely imaginary, because Lille recognized the place immediately!

Latovia!

This was Latovia without all its artificial constructs!

Just as he thought of this, a huge castle suddenly appeared in front of him, a castle Lille also recognized:

It was the castle that belonged to the legitimate nobility of Latovia for generations!

Although it seemed to have undergone some adjustments and modifications, in overall style and shape, Lille couldn’t mistake it, it was that castle!

Inside, there was a throne, an empty throne.

Thinking of this...

As expected, Lille arrived before the throne.

And on the throne was a figure somewhat resembling him:

A green cloak, a face covered with a metal mask, a majestic figure...

And just sitting there exuding an aura of respect without anger.

Lille softly spoke the person’s name.

"Doctor Doom."

...

Latovia, castle, throne, green royal cape and cloak, body of metal and flesh fusion—within the Marvel World, Lille could think of only one person.

That person spoke: "Hmph, you’re slower than I thought. Since you’re here, ask your questions, and I will answer them."

Lille sat down, and beneath him, an identical "throne" materialized automatically—

Compared to Doctor Doom’s throne, this "throne" was more mechanical, with a massive data chair surrounded by countless cables connecting to the void.

Compared to Doctor Doom Lille’s throne, Doom’s throne had more of a royal style, yet was also lonelier.

Lille spoke: "So everything was orchestrated by you?"

"Fundamentally, not by me, but this world is indeed my creation." Doom gazed out the window, at a scenery he had seen for countless years, "I know where you come from. Let’s quickly explain that this is a fragment of the ’Battle Realm.’

It’s well-known that the Marvel Universe has countless parallel universes, and the Battle Realm is one of them, and an exceptionally special one.

In short, during a disaster, two Marvel Parallel Universes collided towards destruction. Amid such a disaster, Doctor Doom seized a dimension-transcending force, using shattered universe fragments to piece together a world, and that world is the Battle Realm —

And in the storyline related to the Battle Realm, it was broken again by other superheroes, reconstructed into another universe.

This aligns with what the Doom in front of us refers to as "fragments."

Simply put, this explains why Lille couldn’t find specific information about this universe, because this universe does not exist in any Marvel comic-related settings!

"I created the Battle Realm, and according to my will, resurrected those who should exist, also setting their thoughts, relationships, and existence in line with my intentions, and that is the Battle Realm.

But... I was defeated by them, a small group of those not completely deceased in the cosmic collision rebelled against my world and killed me, and the Battle Realm was reshaped into another universe—
