Chapter 699: U: Infinite Event (15)

Death would not use any curse. People who died from curses would indeed arrive at her place, but she wouldn't use death to curse someone. Her authority might be very large, but it didn't include directly killing a certain life.

If Death could kill at will, how could there still be living things in these universes?

Death only represented death, not slaughter, and even less did it represent curses. It was just that the consequences produced by these behaviors were death, but Death couldn't actively control them.

Was there really a curse of certain death in the universe?

In Death's view, there was. For example, in a certain universe, there existed toxins that could absolutely kill a certain type of creature. As long as one was poisoned by this, then it was certain death.

From the mystical side, there were indeed curses that could achieve the effect of killing the target 100%. There were many ways to release these curses. It was possible that they were achieved by the spellcasting of a mage or priest-like figure, or they could be attached to objects.

However, this type of curse also had special characteristics. For example, most of them were only effective within a single universe. Once changed to another universe, even the fundamental energy rules were different, and the curse naturally became ineffective.

However, what Death saw was that beside all the Spider-Men, everyone who had said the sentence "With great power comes great responsibility" to them had died.

Looking at these deaths alone, there were no problems. Death couldn't possibly look at what everyone said before they died, so when accepting these people, she didn't notice the problem.

But putting their deaths together, one would find that it really looked like a curse. If one said a certain sentence, they would die. If this was truly a curse, then the one who cast this curse must be a very powerful existence.

However, Death searched through the multiverse and didn't find any clues about a curse. For an existence that could look at and travel through timelines at will, this was almost impossible.

If a curse really existed, then there must be a mastermind behind the curse. And if they wanted to make this curse act on Spider-Man, then they must have had interactions with Spider-Man and the people around him.

Death only needed one look to see all the causal relationships. Yet among all the relationships, she didn't find any clues related to a curse.

If it wasn't a curse, then what else could it be?

Death didn't find the connection between this sentence and death. This was incredible, because she was Death herself, yet she couldn't find the connection between a sentence and him.

But the matter had already happened. Schiller had already died because he said this sentence. So, if she wanted to let Schiller not die now, she couldn't let him say this sentence.

As introduced before, the so-called multiverse was actually composed of infinite single universes. So why was it said to be infinite?

In the setting of Marvel comics, every choice led to a possibility, and every possibility was a universe.

Simply put, when you choose whether or not to drink milk for breakfast this morning, if you choose to drink milk, then this is a single universe. If you choose not to drink milk, that is another single universe.

Even when you have an idea, that is a universe. Having a dream is also a single universe.

Therefore, in the multiverse, there were infinite possibilities. Outside the single universe, there was no empty space; all places were infinite possible universes.

So, in this possibility now, Schiller had already said this sentence and died. Death wanted to reverse all of this, so she had to return to the time point before Schiller had said this sentence.

Then, let Schiller not say this sentence, creating a new possibility, and then use this new possibility to overwrite the current universe. Thus, Schiller wouldn't die.

For Death, this wasn't difficult to operate at all. She first returned to the time point when Schiller first said this sentence, then created some accidents to divert Schiller's attention.

Schiller, who left the hospital, had no time to say "With great power comes great responsibility" to Peter, so naturally, he hadn't said this sentence.

However, just when Death was about to use the newly generated possible universe to cover the existing universe, she discovered that Schiller in this new universe had disappeared.

That's right, he just disappeared out of thin air. And Death couldn't find where Schiller had gone either.

Death was baffled. Then she thought that in the multiverse, there were many special existences. They had one and only one, also known as "Unique."

If Schiller was "Unique," then the situation of his sudden disappearance could be explained. Because they were "Unique," regardless of how many single universes there were, regardless of how many possibilities there were, they themselves could only exist as one.

Wanting to create another individual of a "Unique" out of thin air wasn't impossible, but Death wasn't a creator god; she was just a conceptual god. She didn't preside over this part, so she didn't have such authority.

However, this didn't make Death feel frustrated. Proceeding to this step, whether Schiller died or not was no longer important; the main thing was wanting to win.

Then, if she couldn't create a possible universe where Schiller hadn't said that sentence, she would create a universe where Schiller didn't exist, and then cover the existing universe. If Schiller didn't exist, then Schiller wouldn't die.

However, Death couldn't create a new universe out of thin air. She had to return to a certain time node of the original universe and create a new "possible" universe by influencing certain things and people.

Then, if she wanted this universe to not have Schiller, Schiller couldn't have traveled to Marvel from the beginning.

That is to say, only when the system hadn't sent Schiller to Marvel in this universe could this universe possibly not have Schiller.

However, if Schiller hadn't come to Marvel at the beginning but stayed in the DC world, what would happen?

Through her previous contact with Dream, Schiller knew that on the night he traveled, it was actually Destiny of the DC world holding the Book of Souls in his hand, wanting to write Schiller's name in the book.

If Schiller hadn't traveled to Marvel from beginning to end and had stayed in the DC world that night, then Destiny of the DC world wouldn't have been unable to successfully write Schiller's name into the Book of Souls because Schiller had passed through the Source Wall and disappeared from the original universe.

That is to say, if Death of the Marvel world created this possibility where Schiller hadn't traveled over, then Schiller's name should be written in the Book of Souls now.

When Death put the act of creating this possibility into practice, inside the Source Wall, Destiny, who was working, suddenly discovered that the Book of Souls in his hand had some movement.

He picked up the book and opened it, then revealed a "seen a ghost" expression.

Only to see, on a certain page of that book, a name was being slowly written.

Destiny closed the Book of Souls with a "pop," opened it again after a while, and discovered that the name had already had several letters written.

Destiny stared at the suddenly appearing name. He discovered, isn't this Schiller?

When I wanted to write the name at the beginning, you wouldn't let me write it. Now you actually want to write it yourself? If I let you succeed, how am I supposed to do my job?

So, Destiny decisively refused. He waved his hand and directly erased Schiller's name.

But just after he finished erasing it, some power from nowhere started writing on it again. Destiny erased it again, and this power wrote it again.

Destiny wasn't without a temper either. A trace of light shone on his hand, and the name Schiller Rodriguez was directly blacklisted by him.

Destiny rejected Schiller, which meant Schiller was no longer within Destiny. However, the entire DC universe was contained within Destiny, which meant Schiller could only go outside of DC.

However, the operation Marvel Death was currently performing was not letting Schiller appear outside of DC, but letting him return to the state of never having traveled.

A person cannot be both not within Destiny and not outside of Destiny. This was a paradox.

To solve this paradox, there was only one method, and that was that Schiller was within the DC world, but he was dead.

The authorities of the various members of the Endless family didn't overlap. As long as Schiller was taken away by DC's Death, it could be explained.

The current situation was that Marvel's Death wanted to knead a new possibility, but Destiny on the DC side wasn't cooperating. The two started to wrestle, but perhaps because their levels were relatively similar, the struggle between the two sides had no result.

Two world lines conflicted, producing a paradox. You squeeze me, I squeeze you, and finally, a third world line was squeezed out, which was letting DC's Death go and take Schiller away.

However, this third world line required DC's Death's consent.

When this request was sent to DC's Death, she didn't even think about it and very simply refused.

But don't forget, in the DC world, the young Schiller plucked a feather from Lucifer, causing him to have some connection with Lucifer. And now, that feather was still in Schiller's soul.

DC's Death could indeed take Schiller's soul away, but the problem was, she couldn't take the feather in Schiller's soul away.

Lucifer was higher than DC's Death. Death couldn't manage him, so naturally, she couldn't take the power belonging to him to her own realm.

Just like you can deduct the salary of the boss's driver, but you can't deduct the boss's salary. Lucifer was DC's Death's boss.

Now, the first world line, the second world line, and the third world line were all impassable. In order not to produce a paradox, these three world lines started to squeeze each other.

Finally, after squeezing back and forth, this request was still submitted to Lucifer of the DC world by DC's Death.

In a hotel room in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles, Lucifer slightly opened his eyes and looked at Chloe, who was still sleeping. The policewoman's long hair slid down from the pillow like silk.

Lucifer turned over, intending to sleep a while longer, but at this moment, he heard a faint "buzzing" sound.

He sat up, gently pushed Chloe, and said, "Hey, darling, is that the walkie-talkie from your police station? How come it seems to be ringing?"

"Walkie-talkie? How could a walkie-talkie ring?" Chloe answered very sleepily, "This is very far from our police station. The signal can't reach here."

Lucifer frowned with some confusion, but he didn't think too much, lay back down, and pulled the quilt up again. Just after lying down for a while, the "buzzing" sound came again.

Lucifer sat up angrily, then walked to the side of the nightstand and picked up Chloe's walkie-talkie. But when he held this walkie-talkie in his hand, he discovered that it was indeed not the walkie-talkie that was ringing.

He searched for a long time and pressed the hotel's call button, but the service personnel who came later said he hadn't heard this kind of sound.

Refusing the service personnel's offer to help him call a doctor, Lucifer went to the bathroom and washed his face, wanting to calm down.

But at this time, the "buzzing" sound became stronger and stronger. Lucifer finally couldn't hold it anymore. He directly used his special ability and looked toward the truth and origin of this world.

Then he discovered that this kind of "buzzing" sound was someone calling him, and it was also making a request to him.

"Neither within Destiny nor outside of Destiny, and also cannot die? Schiller, are you looking for trouble for no reason????"

After speaking, Lucifer hung up this call. In his view, it must be Schiller who had caused some trouble again, and only after he couldn't solve it did he find him here. He wouldn't satisfy this kind of strange request.

After washing his face, Lucifer felt he was still a bit sleepy, so he lay back on the bed, hugged Chloe, and prepared to sleep.

But just when he was about to fall asleep, that's right, the phone rang again.

Lucifer sat up violently and roared at the air: "Schiller!

Are you sick?!

Stop calling me!

!"

After speaking, he lay down angrily, wrapped his body tightly with the quilt, frowned, and intended to continue sleeping.

And just when he was about to fall asleep again, that's right, the phone rang again.

Marvel Death, who was constantly trying to create this possibility, didn't know who DC's Lucifer was, and she didn't know that this behavior of hers would submit the request to Lucifer. So, after the first time didn't succeed, she started repeated experiments.

The result was that Lucifer received an average of more than 200 harassment calls every day for the next week. Finally, Lucifer couldn't endure it anymore.

On the other side, in a mysterious hall somewhere in the Marvel world, Eternity, who had just finished a meeting with the Ancient Ones, called over the most special one among the group of Ancient Ones.

This Ancient One was different from all other Ancient Ones. Her body had been modified and turned into a shining holy spirit, and she was also the strongest among all the Ancient Ones. Eternity called her into his room and said, "How come I feel that someone is drawing chaos energy again recently? You go check it out and see what's going on. We can't..."

Just at this moment, above the mysterious hall that was higher than all universes, and above all similar existences, the sound of "bang bang bang" rang out.

After a loud noise like angry knocking on the door, a voice full of anger resounded over the Marvel universe:

"Schiller!

If you have the ability to make harassment calls!

If you have the ability, open the door!
