Chapter 348 Titan Matrix
Dr. Solomon stepped over the nanny's body and sat on the sofa opposite the recliner.
He crossed his feet leisurely, crossed his arms over his chest, and smiled at Professor Butler.
"Old friend, I came all the way to attend your funeral. Are you surprised?"
Professor Butler's facial muscles twitched slightly.
He raised his hand to touch the compass patch covering his right eye.
"Be smart and don't move!"
Margaret yelled at the old man.
"Margaret, this person opposite is my old friend. Don't be so rude to your elders, or you will be laughed at for being uneducated."
Dr. Solomon shook his finger.
Professor Butler's action of turning on the blindfold was interrupted, and he was unable to activate the power of "Gazer".
"Old friend, stop resisting in vain."
"If I wanted to kill you, I wouldn't have let you leave the Metropolitan Sanctuary in the first place."
"Over the years, I have turned a blind eye to your evil deeds. Do you know why?"
There was a chilling sinisterness in Dr. Solomon's smile.
"Out of consideration for the old friendship? Haha... there is this factor, but it's not all."
"In fact, before you left, I had already left a soul mark on you, just like implanting a Trojan horse into a computer program."
"As long as I want, I can take your body and devour your soul at any time."
"I have to say, you have great prestige among the hermits."
"And I just want to use your appeal to gather all the hostile forces around you, and when the time is right, I can wipe them out in one fell swoop."
Dr. Solomon picked up the steaming cup of coffee on the table, sniffed it, and put it down with contempt.
"You drink this kind of junk and smoke low-quality tobacco all day long. No wonder you age so quickly and look like you're about to die."
"I originally planned to reincarnate in you and use your identity to rule Liberty City."
"It's a pity that you are about to die. Your old body is no longer useful."
"What's more, you are no longer the leader of Liberty City. Your position has been replaced by the false prophet. The 'Wings of Liberty' you founded has degenerated into a cult."
"Even if I borrow your identity, I cannot mobilize everyone to respond and take back the usurped authority from the false prophet."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk! My friend, you are so pitiful!"
"You spent the first half of your life living in my shadow, and the second half of your life being manipulated by the false prophet. When death is imminent, you can't even keep the pitiful power you hold."
"No one will be there to see you off except me and my family."
"Are you done?"
Professor Butler put down the photo album and looked coldly at his strange old friend.
"Stop talking nonsense and get out of here!"
"Why are you in such a hurry? I haven't even started talking about business yet."
Dr. Solomon smiled slyly.
"I came to visit you today mainly because I wanted to inherit your inheritance before you die."
"I have no legacy to leave you except to curse you to hell!"
"Your curses are meaningless, old friend. The Gazer has a mind of its own."
Dr. Solomon's gaze fell on the professor's right eye.
"My next words are for the gazer."
"Your host is about to die. Instead of being buried with him, why not sign a contract with me and work together to fulfill the dream of reshaping the Titan Matrix?"
Dr. Solomon's temptation was soon responded to.
puff!
There was a muffled sound coming from deep within Professor Butler's right eye socket.
The metal compass eye mask opened automatically.
An eyeball, dragging along a dense bundle of blood vessels and nerves, popped out of its socket.
Professor Butler instinctively wanted to cover his eyes.
The Gazer, however, nimbly slipped out from between his fingers, tore his blood vessels without any reluctance, completely separated from him, and flew towards Dr. Solomon.
Dr. Solomon raised his hand and caught the bloody eyeball, with a hint of sneer on the corner of his lips.
"Old friend, after all these years, you still haven't realized that the Titan Primarchs are purely rational and selfish creatures."
"You have lived with the Gazer for more than twenty years, and you thought you had established a deep relationship with it. However, in its eyes, you are just a puppet to be used."
"When you lose your usefulness, the Titan Primarch will abandon you without hesitation, just like now."
Professor Butler covered his bleeding eye sockets and asked in pain, "Aren't you afraid that the original body will use up all your value and then abandon you?"
"I don't mind using each other, because I believe I have the ability to rise to a higher rank before being abandoned. After that, all Titan Primarchs will obey me and become part of my perfect body."
"A higher rank?" Professor Butler looked surprised.
"Ruler, the Contractor of the Titan Matrix!"
Professor Solomon took the dagger handed to him by his daughter and dug out his right eye without hesitation as a sacrifice to sign a contract with the Gazer.
The next moment the contract was completed, the gazer drilled into his empty eye sockets and flesh and blood merged.
Dr. Solomon took out a clean white handkerchief and wiped the blood around his right eye.
He rolled his newly transplanted eyeballs and smiled with satisfaction.
“The vision has become clearer…it feels good.”
"So it is... My friend, you have been blinded by your over-inflated ambitions and are heading towards self-destruction."
Professor Butler breathed weakly, and his words were intermittent, but they contained a penetrating power that struck directly into the soul.
"In fact, I could have evolved into a reincarnated being a long time ago, discarding this aging body for a younger and healthier one, just like you are now."
"But I didn't take that step, because reincarnation is meaningless. Not only can it not prolong life, but it will wear away the soul and lose humanity in reincarnation again and again."
"I don't want to lose my identity. I'd rather face aging and death."
"As for your conspiracy, I have already noticed it... People who are so smart as you will eventually get burned."
Dr. Solomon frowned slightly, his face looking particularly gloomy.
"Old man, what crazy things are you talking about?!"
Margaret expressed her father's doubts.
"Madness? No, poor Margaret, you don't know your father well enough to know what a foolish thing he has just done."
Professor Butler shook his head and sneered.
"You and your daughter have been secretly monitoring the movements of Liberty City over the years, hoping that the growing Titan Church will have an internal conflict with the 'Wings of Liberty' I founded, so that you can take advantage of the opportunity."
"The result was a great disappointment to you."
"From the beginning, I had no intention of competing with the prophet for power. We have always been partners who trust each other."
"Your visit today was predicted by the prophet, and a trap was set in advance."
"I, a dying old man, volunteer to be the bait."
Professor Butler smiled contentedly.
At the last moment of his life, he finally completed his revenge on Dr. Solomon.
Dr. Solomon lost his composure.
Suddenly he raised his hand and pressed his right eye, groaning in pain.
"Don't struggle, old friend. The prophet has already injected his sacred blood into my body... For you, this is the most deadly poison!"
In fact, not only did Alan inject the professor with the blood of the prophet, he also cast a "trigger spell" on him, temporarily not activating the effect of the blood of the prophet to restrain the Titan cells until the "Gazer" got out of control.
When Dr. Solomon seized the "Gazer" and transplanted it into himself, the "Trigger" was activated.
The "Blood of the Prophet" invaded his body through the bloody eyeball, ruthlessly disinfecting the Titan cells.
If this continues, it won't be long before the Titan cells in Dr. Solomon's body will be completely destroyed.
The superpowers based on Titan cells will also disappear, and they will degenerate into a natural person with no ability to protect themselves.
"Damn old man...just wait for me!"
Dr. Solomon's angry curses were meaningless.
Professor Butler has closed his eyes forever and there is no need to wait for his revenge.
"Margaret... come here and take me out of here!"
"I have to go home as soon as possible, get a spare body, and get rid of the poison of the false prophet's blood!"
Dr. Solomon, who was weak, asked his daughter for help.
Margaret hesitated for a moment and tried to go over to support her father.
A hand suddenly reached out and stopped her firmly.
Margaret looked at her husband in confusion.
I don't understand why he stopped me from rescuing my father.
"Mr. Solomon, if you need to change your body, you can transfer your soul directly to the spare body through the Titan Network. There is no need to trouble Margaret."
Alan said slowly.
Margaret was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized that this was indeed the truth!
The superpower of the "Reincarnator" is to obtain the amplification of the Titan Network.
My father has always been shrewd and calculating.
Among his entourage and mercenaries, there must be more than one person who had unknowingly been branded by him and had a "Trojan horse" implanted in him as a backup body for reincarnation.
As long as these backup bodies are within the coverage of the network, he can directly possess them. Why bother teleporting back home first?
"Idiot! Can't you feel it?"
Dr. Solomon roared in frustration.
"Since we entered this room, we have been schemed by that old fox Butler!"
"The entire room is shrouded in a barrier, and the mental network is blocked. It is impossible to reincarnate directly!"
"Since reincarnation is not possible through the Internet, we can only achieve this goal through physical contact."
Alan took over the conversation and asked calmly:
"Mr. Solomon, have you implanted a soul imprint in Margaret?"
"Nonsense! Of course not! How could I harm my own daughter?" Dr. Solomon roared angrily.
Alan glanced at Margaret and whispered, "Do you believe it?"
Margaret bit her lip and said nothing.
Deep down, I have lost trust in my father.
Dr. Solomon suddenly jumped up and pounced on Alan!
Without thinking, Margaret raised her hand and blasted out a wave of mental power, knocking him away and knocking over the coffee table.
There was a ping-pong sound in the room.
Dr. Solomon rolled in the broken glass, blood oozing from the corners of his mouth, and cursed his daughter for being unfilial in the most vicious words.
Margaret was pale, holding her husband's hand tightly, and trembling constantly.
She felt somewhat .
However, there is more fear and anger!
From the moment her father pounced on her husband, she suddenly realized that her father had already implanted a "Trojan horse" in her husband's body as one of the backup puppets for reincarnation.
Helping the father means sacrificing the husband.
To protect her husband, she could only watch her father die.
Margaret has to make a difficult choice.
In her heart, which one is more important, being a father or being a husband?
The balance in my heart has tilted.
She couldn't lie to herself.
So she stayed quietly by her husband's side, turning her head away from her father's painful struggle.
The attitude of his daughter and son-in-law made Dr. Solomon feel cold in his heart.
In the end, he blamed the original Titan Primarch that parasitized his body for his miserable situation.
"The Knower... you damned monster, you deceived me!!"
Over the years, Dr. Solomon relied on the powerful thinking ability provided by the Knower to firmly control Solomon Company and Metropolis Sanctuary and become the ruler of this wasteland.
The know-it-alls always provide him with visionary advice and help him solve problems that he cannot solve with his own wisdom.
Over time, Dr. Solomon became more and more dependent on the Knower, without considering the possibility that the other party might deceive or even betray him.
Until this moment, the layout that had been under control suddenly had a fatal loophole.
It is impossible for one who knows everything to be unaware!
But it did not warn its contractor in time, and watched Dr. Solomon fall into the trap and destroy himself.
Why is this?
At the last moment of his life, Dr. Solomon recalled what he had said to Professor Butler:
The Titan Primarchs are all absolutely selfish creatures.
The signatories are just puppets to be used in the eyes of the Titan Primarch.
Unfortunately, Dr. Solomon did not realize sooner that he was no exception.
The real purpose of the Knower is to use him to come here, snatch the Gazer from Professor Butler's body, and merge it with himself.
As a tool, after completing the above mission, he had lost his value and was ruthlessly abandoned.
Just like those bodies that he had ruthlessly abandoned in countless past reincarnations.
BANG!!
Dr. Solomon's head suddenly cracked open.
A mass of trembling brain tissue floated into the air.
This is "The Knower", the number one Titan Primarch!
The "Gazer" is inlaid in the area of the right eye.
After the two Titan Primarchs combined, they separated from the host and stimulated unprecedentedly strong soul fluctuations.
The pure spiritual power actually formed a telekinetic storm, which instantly blew the surrounding walls into pieces.
Alan and Margaret held each other tightly against the growing storm.
The Titan Primarchs that parasitized the two, "The Thinker" and "The Grabber", responded to the call of their own kind and forced the host to move closer to the center of the storm.
The two held on until the end, but still fell into the vortex of the storm...
Meanwhile, in the church basement.
The "Wanderer" imprisoned by the Prophet gained powerful strength from the other four Titan Primarchs nearby through soul resonance.
He broke free from his restraints and transformed himself into a headless giant, breaking through the basement ceiling and then piercing through the church dome!
The giant wanderer stepped down heavily.
Boom! !
The earth roared and the Giant God Cathedral collapsed.
The headless giant took big strides, stepped on the ruins of the church, and walked towards Professor Butler's mansion.
…
On the streets of Liberty City shrouded in darkness, the five Titan Primitives finally gathered together to form a complete Titan Matrix!
The demigod-level super-limited field, in the form of a mental network, radiates from the body of the Titan mother, covering an area of a thousand miles.
Almost all the Titan cell infected people within this area are attracted by the telekinetic storm and forced to be teleported to the vicinity of the Titan mother body to be devoured and absorbed by it.
In an instant, tens of thousands of bodies of flesh and blood merged into the Titan mother body.
Most of them were wild Titans within a thousand miles of the surrounding area, as well as mercenaries from Solomon Company, and Dr. Allen and Margaret, who were the first to be caught in the storm.
The Titan mother body devoured so many infected people and its body expanded rapidly.
Transformed into a Titan giant a thousand feet tall, standing proudly on the earth!
