Chapter 849: Tool-Using Celestial Host (First update!)

"Not a savior."

"But an accomplice?"

Thanos's sudden remark made Hawkeye, who was sitting to the side with a calm expression, instantly jolt, his face turning exceptionally solemn.

"What do you mean?"

"Time... no, all of this was designed by the Celestial Host."

Thanos turned his head to meet Hawkeye's sharp gaze: "Whether it's the Eternals or the Deviants, they were all created by the Celestial Host. At first, I only thought Titan had a Celestial seed, just the Celestial Host recycling waste, but after seeing you, I suddenly realized that all of this was designed by the Celestial Host, whether it was the ancestors of Titan or my resistance."

Hawkeye remained expressionless.

"Explain in detail."

"Because you were also designed by the Celestial Host."

"..."

Hearing this from Thanos, Hawkeye raised an eyebrow, his thoughts spinning wildly, and then he frowned slightly: "The Celestial Host designed me? How? Did they design me to slaughter every life-bearing planet in the universe where they had planted seeds?"

This was a cold joke.

But!

Thanos's expression was serious to the extreme.

"Yes, it was designed for you to slaughter the life-bearing planets where they had planted seeds throughout the universe."

"..."

Listening to this and looking at Thanos's expression, Hawkeye fell into a silence.

The next second.

Thanos dropped another bombshell: "The time of this universe is already dead, or rather, it has been replaced by the Celestial Host."

Hearing this, Hawkeye instantly snapped back to reality and looked at Thanos.

Thanos met Hawkeye's gaze and said only one sentence.

"The Eternity of Time only created three Celestials."

"... Hiss!"

Hawkeye was silent for a moment, then understood the implication of Thanos's words.

Just as Thanos said.

The Eternity of Time created a total of three Celestials to manage the order of time on its behalf.

Arishem, responsible for judgment.

The Exterminator, responsible for execution.

The Searcher, responsible for searching.

Let's put it this way.

Time has no self-awareness, nor should it have self-awareness; time without self-awareness is good time.

But Eternity has a self, so to avoid self-interference with the instinct of time, it created three Celestials without self-awareness to watch over and manage the order of time.

Hawkeye hadn't thought about it in detail at first.

But under the weight of Thanos's words, he couldn't help but think it over and discovered the anomaly.

What is the definition of life's self-awareness?

Reproduction!

But are members of the Celestial Host life? Theoretically, yes, but practically, they are tools created by the Eternity of Time.

Tools should not have consciousness, and if a creator suddenly discovers that the tools they created have gained consciousness, what would be their first reaction?

Joy?

Non-existent.

Destruction is the creator's first reaction.

Just like humans pursuing intelligent robots; no matter how flowery the words are, if a robot truly awakens self-awareness, the human's first reaction is destruction.

Humans are like this.

The Celestial Host is the same; the Deviants were the tools the Celestial Host created at the beginning, but when the Deviants suddenly developed self-awareness, didn't the Celestial Host immediately create the Eternals to be responsible for destroying these Deviants?

By the same logic!

The Eternity of Time should be like this too.

The Celestial Host, which shouldn't have had self-awareness, gained it, so the Eternity of Time's first reaction should have been destruction, not sitting idly by while the Celestial Host used various life-bearing planets to gestate new Celestials.

Therefore...

"Eternity..."

"Has been banished."

Thanos dropped another bombshell, looking at Hawkeye: "Not just Eternity, even Death is no longer in this universe."

Hawkeye's pupils contracted: "That's impossible, Mephisto..."

He was just about to say that Mephisto had seen Death, after all, when Mephisto was still around, he couldn't go three sentences without mentioning Eternity and Death.

But!

Hawkeye suddenly remembered something, couldn't help but laugh, and then shook his head.

As everyone knows.

Demons are the best at lying, and Mephisto, as the lord of demons, you can't even trust the punctuation marks in his words.

Whether it was Eternity or Time, Hawkeye had just thought through it, and these two creation gods had only ever existed in Mephisto's words.

Seeing Hawkeye's sudden laugh, Thanos also revealed a smile, his voice low.

"This universe, except for three places, has already submitted to the Celestial Host. Whether it's Yahweh or Mephisto, they are all people of the Celestial Host."

"Hiss!"

Hearing the secret revealed by Thanos, Hawkeye gasped again and looked at Thanos.

"And those three places?"

"Olympus."

"Zeus has completely transcended the timeline within his own universe, so the multiverse is unified. Even this Celestial Host trying to replace time cannot move Zeus. Zeus also has no intention of interfering in cosmic affairs, and Zeus indulges in pleasure, so he does not leave the Indigris star sector."
