Chapter 1403: The Old Days Return (20)

~10 min read 1,813 words

Four giant divine phantoms hovered in the gray mist, silently exchanging information in a soundless language. Soon, the giant Spider God spoke first.

"Collect..."

And the black sun followed closely behind.

"Analyze..."

Then the God of Stories.

"Write..."

Finally, the God of Scarlet.

"Realize..."

The entire space fell into a long silence, but they were not without speech; all information was exchanged in an instant. When the gray mist covered the ground of the floating island and dissipated again, four small figures appeared in the center of the floating island.

Laili, who seemed to be still immersed in other dreams, rubbed his eyes hard, and then was startled by the giant spider phantom in front of him. Laili jumped a distance back, making a defensive posture, and then asked in surprise: "Spider-Totem?"

"Am I dreaming?" The girl beside Laili shook her head hard, but a pair of giant scarlet eyes in mid-air cast a gaze at her. Jessica was almost instantly attracted.

Xu Shangqi stared quietly at the black sun. For some reason, he always seemed to be able to see more information from those fine patterns than others, and he was the only one of the four who had felt the call in advance, so he wasn't surprised that he would appear here.

Quill frowned. He looked around and found that besides the black sun from before, there were three more gods. He thought, perhaps this is part of the secret behind the stars? What is the name of this ancient and mysterious pantheon? What are the names of these gods?

Quill asked inadvertently, and the old man who was writing something in a giant book in front of him smiled at him and said: "Don't worry, child, you can call me the God of Stories. Perhaps you don't know yet that you have been written into a wonderful story, right?"

Quill seemed somewhat lost, but the quill pen moved quickly again. The old man said: "Everything in this world will appear in some story. When I rewrite the story, I can rewrite them."

"If you sign a contract with me, you will be able to see a part of the content on my storybook—past stories, present stories, future stories, the entire Earth, the entire interstellar, the entire universe..."

Quill didn't know if he had an illusion, but he always felt that this sentence wasn't directed at him, but at the giant spider opposite this God of Stories.

Jessica, standing by Laili's side, felt the incomparably powerful strength of the God of Scarlet, and at the same time, she heard a slightly young female voice say: "Your talent is very powerful, but I can make you more powerful. Your talent will be combined with chaos power, which will enable you to use various chaos magic."

"I need this," Jessica didn't hesitate at all. She stepped forward and said: "We are trapped by the lack of large-scale weapons of mass destruction. If you can give me magic, that would be great. But what do you need me to offer?"

"I need you to help me find a person, his name is... oh, fine, I'll say it again. If you become my believer, you will be completely free from the madness spread by other gods, but you must also bring me information about the god who spreads madness. It will become... someone's hunting target."

And facing the Spider God, Laili scratched his face, spread his hands, and continued to explain: "The situation is like this. I'm afraid I can't believe in you. On one hand, I'm not a pious person, never count on gods, and like to solve problems myself. On the other hand, I'm not sure if my teacher and elder, that is, the other god, allows me to believe in you. Why don't you go talk to him?"

The giant spider outlined words in mid-air with silk. Laili followed the silk with his eyes. After reading the words, he said: "Fine, if you have a relationship with the Spider-Totem, then I am indeed your natural believer, but don't expect me to pray morning and night..."

The silk showed a line of text.

"I can send any Spider-Man to your side at any time, in any place, and I can also let you go to the side of any Spider-Man."

Laili's breathing frequency changed immediately. He pursed his lips and said: "Even if the nature of the universe is special and might be in a blockade?"

"This is the privilege of Spider-Man."

Laili was somewhat shaken. If this god had told him he could give him power or energy, he might not necessarily be moved. Laili currently lacked some hard means.

Hard means not only include large-scale weapons, but in fact, the hardest means is, I can decide when someone comes, and I can also decide when I leave.

And the next paragraph of text from the Spider God added the last stick of firewood to the fire in Laili's heart.

"I have strengthened the Spider-Sense, forming a 'Brain-Net!' composed of the thoughts of countless Spider-Men. You can now communicate in your hearts anytime, anywhere, regardless of time, space, race, or even way of thinking."

"I have a chat room in my brain now?"

"Yes, if we establish a stable connection, you can join at any time."

Laili hesitated slightly, but still nodded. The next second, he felt a channel open in his spirit, and the next second, a massive amount of noise almost blew up his brain. Even Spider-Man himself couldn't receive so much information from Spider-Men chatting in a short time.

Laili's brain became lively in an instant. He tried to send a message, but found that it was different from the chat room on a computer. The information that a computer screen could display was limited, and expired information would be brushed away. If the chat was too fast, that sentence would likely be topped very quickly, and no one would notice.

But the capacity limit of the Spider-Man thought network was astonishing. Even if thousands of new messages were brushed below, the self-introduction Laili sent remained in everyone's field of vision, and countless Spider-Men received it.

This is great, Laili thought. They could finally chat with their companions without scruples, without worrying about disturbing others, and without worrying about internet fees.

So he sent a message with a slightly excited mood, or rather, it wasn't a sentence, but a segment of his memory. This network could directly upload memory fragments and share the things he had experienced with others without loss.

There was no medium better than brain-to-brain connection for receiving others' information. When Laili sent up this ups-and-downs story of his, the originally noisy chat room was immersed for a second—and then erupted into a more intense discussion.

Most Spider-Men were sighing, but several private messages were sent over. Laili felt it was very magical, because he could immediately distinguish who the other party was.

Peter from the central universe said: "Let the Spider-Totem send you to the lab of Stark Tower. There is data on robot manufacturing you need in the solar system intelligent cruise project. I'll unlock the permission for you."

Spider-Man Noir said: "I'm quelling the chaos on the Sulfur Dwarf mother planet in the central universe. There are about two cubic meters of high-quality molten steel here. You can take it to make robot skeletons."

Gwen Spider-Man said: "Hey? I'm in my own universe now. Spider-Silk was just beaten up by me. They have calmed down a lot recently. Call me if you need help."

Scarlet Spider Kaine said: "Where to kill? How many to kill?"

More private messages poured in. Spider-Men were chattering about the solution to Laili's universe. Manufacturing robots was the consensus of everyone, but what kind to manufacture, how many to manufacture, and where to deploy them were the keys to the discussion.

Laili felt these messages were all very useful, but if he were to say these thoughts with his mouth, he would probably have to talk for months. Spider-Man finally experienced what it meant to have a mouth that couldn't keep up with the brain.

And at this time, Peter from the central universe sent another message. Laili looked closely and found that it was a paper titled "Investigation and Research on World Barrier Portals and Channels and Speculation on Universality."

The exchange ended very quickly. When they woke up, they were still in a deserted underground cold storage because there was no energy. This was their new temporary stronghold, with plenty of long-shelf-life food that hadn't rotted yet and a door that was considered sturdy.

After the four woke up, they looked at each other and let out an "uh" at the same time. Looking at each other's expressions, they all understood that they had met more friends from the depths of the stars, and in this new dream, everyone had found a seemingly effective way to break the situation.

"There is now a book in my brain, and there are many stories in the book. You can treat them as intelligence. All stories that happened in this universe, whether past, present, or future, have a chance to appear in this book. That is to say, we don't have to go deep into the enemy camp to spy on intelligence," Quill said.

Jessica also stood up and said: "I can use chaos magic. At least when facing monsters like mountains and seas, we are no longer helpless."

Laili stood up, began to pace in the room, and said: "The Avengers have planned to invade other universes, and our plan is to guide them before they start, and let them go to the destination we arranged."

"There are two problems here. One is how to guide them, and the other is how to let them go to the predetermined destination."

"Regarding the second point, the paper Peter just sent me mentioned that there are many magical things in the universe that can make an individual or group travel freely between universes, such as the subway in the central universe that leads to other universes."

"And he pointed out an unverified guess in the paper that the first star in the universe, the holy relic of the Shi'ar Empire, the M'kraan Crystal, might be a portal to other universes, and this might become the key to luring the monsters."

"You mean..." Quill narrowed his eyes.

"They have plans to invade other universes, but haven't taken action. Besides looking for targets, they should also be looking for suitable transmission channels. After all, they don't just plan to transport people, but also gods. There aren't many channels that meet the conditions."

"Tell them how easy the M'kraan Crystal is to use, let them find the crystal, crack the crystal, activate the crystal, and then... the carnival begins." ===== CHAPTER 1404 =====
