Crimson Embers Chapter 31 So it’s never a good idea to create such untrustworthy fully intelligent robots!
The God Doom relies on three kinds of power to come and go freely in the doomsday era.
As the lord of the fighting world, he can share the power from the molecule man, which makes him an omnipotent god in the fighting world. He can even suppress and beat the Void Mason without any help. Even in the outside world, he still retains considerable strength, making him the most powerful man in this catastrophic era.
At the same time, as the host of the fairy power, Doom can also manipulate the fairy power to devour all energy, no matter whether it is tangible or intangible, no matter where it comes from, and no matter whether it is good or evil.
In terms of status, the power of the fairy is a supernatural force as ancient as the power of the phoenix, and in terms of destructive power, the power of the fairy is even higher than the power of the phoenix, because it can swallow up the power of the phoenix to satisfy its oral desires without any sequelae.
However, this thing is very dangerous.
It is uncontrollable and will be attracted by all energy. It is not a good thing to be the host of this power, but for a wise man like Doom, this danger can also be controlled by himself.
The fighting power and the fairy power in his body formed a certain balance, allowing him to control the dangerous devouring power without being devoured by it. His third power, which is the wisdom he is proud of, is the basis for controlling these powers.
Lord Doom is confident.
He created an almost unsolvable attack and defense system for himself, and it turned out that this system was quite perfect. At least Mason couldn't crack it now.
Unfortunately, the God seemed overconfident. He made a mistake that all strong people would make. He failed to realize that his weakness had been discovered and exploited by the enemy before the danger came.
The balance of power is a relative concept. Once this balance is broken, it is difficult to restore stability in a short period of time, especially after the Molecule Man chose to self-decompose and caused Doom's first power to completely collapse. The fairy power was no longer under control and regained "freedom". It no longer needed to be restrained by Doom and could freely pursue all the "delicacies" it saw.
For example, right now...
“Ah!”
Amid the giant beast's roar of devouring, the lavender fairy power instantly wiped out the white energy escaping from Doom's body. That was the core force that constituted and maintained the existence of the fighting world.
This bite caused a part of the edge of the world to collapse.
Fortunately, Doom had evacuated the residents of the Fighting World long ago and left only the garrison here, otherwise this moment alone would have been enough to cause horrific casualties.
“Stop! Stop!”
The God roared and tried to absorb the dissipating power back into his body, but his white robe faded faster and faster.
The extremely mysterious white clothes faded into Doom's "traditional suit".
The dark green cloak and silver-gray armor reappeared, causing him to fall from the omnipotent God to the level of Doctor Doom, but this was not the most miserable thing.
Harley and Quinn, who were sent by the Molecule Man, were kicking him in a circle with their two dogs.
The baseball bat and the X-metal hammer kept smashing down. It was difficult to cause effective damage to Doom who was protected by the armor, but it cleverly disrupted his efforts to gather energy again.
More white light flew out and was swallowed up by the out-of-control fairy power. The fighting world was collapsing!
The local lackeys outside who were still attacking the Mason family's defense line also felt something was wrong. They stopped the attack and turned back to look at the collapsing world behind them.
The earth broke and turned, and the sky was filled with flames, just like the tragic world that encountered the impact.
The end of the thirteenth cycle of this world has arrived.
The rewriting of these guys' thoughts and wills by the God-King also disappeared as the foundation of the entire fighting world collapsed. Their original memories are returning, and the battle naturally no longer needs to continue.
"Go! Go!"
Outside the building, on the horribly damaged defense line, the jeweler waved his hands and shouted to the guys who had regained their senses:
"Go find the space-time rift that leads to the outside world! You can reach the material world from there, go quickly! Don't stay here, you will be dragged into the process of the world's collapse, and then no one will be able to save you.
Get out of here! "
There was no time to say anything more at this moment. Under the urging of the Mason family, these lackeys serving Doom immediately dispersed to look for a crack leading to the outside world. The Mason family, who no longer had enemies to deal with, also abandoned various weapons and retreated to the buildings that had not been affected.
As a result, as soon as he rushed in, he saw that the fairy power had expanded to an uncontrollable level and was wreaking havoc here. The entire machine workshop was in chaos as if a level 10 storm had raged.
"Where to go now?"
The forger asked Mason:
"If you want to leave, you have to hurry up."
"forward!"
Mason turned his gaze away from Doom who had fallen to the ground, and pointed at the crystal-like wall in front of him that separated the Doomsday Star from the other side of the wall.
The strange planet in the sea of stars was already lit up with flickering lights, as if some device had been activated, or like a planet-sized bomb about to explode from the inside.
He walked quickly forward, but was stopped by the engineer beside him.
"What about that guy?"
The engineer pointed at Doom, who was pinned to the ground by the goblin power, and said:
"How about giving him a shot?"
“That’s not necessary.”
Mason waved his hands and said:
"The out-of-control demon power will not let him go. If you dare to seek the skin of a tiger, you must be prepared to be eaten by it. There are only a few minutes left. There is no time to waste on him.
Walk!
Follow me!
That's where we came from, we can't delay any longer."
He said to the engineer:
"You'd better prepare the miracle machine in advance..."
"It's all assembled, but I don't know if I assembled it correctly. The assembly degree is barely 93%, which is acceptable for use."
The engineer sighed and said:
"The combination of that thing is too complicated, but we have to give it a try. It can definitely work, but what kind of miracle it can achieve is up to fate."
“Go, go, go!”
Harley threw the broken baseball bat aside, rushed over, grabbed Mason's hand and ran forward, screaming as she ran:
"This place is going to collapse, run!"
The dogs also chased after them, barking. Kevin, who was at the end, dodged and jumped over to ride on the back of the fierce dog Luther. He then transformed himself into Damian and rode the dogs forward.
At the moment when following Mason into the crumbling crystal wall that was also affected by the collapse of the fighting world, the drama slime monster turned around and raised a middle finger to Doom who was staring at them and yelling.
The meaning is very clear.
You, Lord Doom, you pathetic bastard, see you in the next life!
Pinned to the spot by the out-of-control fairy power, Doom, like a pathetic mouse caught by a vicious cat as reserve food, gnashed his teeth and watched the Mason family disappear beside the crystal wall leading to the End Star.
He had to stop them, but the power of the fairies would gain the upper hand and suppress him so tightly that he couldn't come up with any feasible solution.
The Molecule Man suddenly gave up and threw him into an almost unsolvable dead end, but Doom was so smart that he realized how Mason and his gang persuaded the Molecule Man to give up.
After all, he was the one who broke his promise first, so he can't blame the other party for not keeping his word.
“Ah!”
The howling of the fairy power became more and more ferocious. This lavender monster had already consumed most of the energy that maintained the fighting world, but it was still not satisfied.
It is a devourer, and the greedy nature it possessed when it was born can never be satisfied. It was able to be suppressed by Doom before but was still unruly. Now that there are no more shackles, its nature will be released.
After failing to obtain energy replenishment from the outside world, the lavender monster turned around and began to drain the magic power from Doom and the energy from his armor.
These powers are just a drop in the bucket compared to the energy of the fighting world, but it is unwilling to give up even such a little bit of deliciousness.
It roared, wanting to take revenge on Doom for all the restraint and oppression he had put on it in the past period of time. The pain that felt like skin being peeled off and bones being pulled out made Doom curl up on the ground.
But his bones were indeed hard enough, and he did not make any cry out despite such agony. He just stared at the pain as if gritting his teeth.
Unfortunately, his will and tenacity could not save him from despair when facing an ancient evil force.
After all the magic and energy in Doom's body were drained, the fairy power was still unwilling to give up, and it began to maliciously drain Doom's vitality.
His feet soon lost feeling, and along with the armor wrapped around his body, they fell into a state of "decomposition", just like flames burning flesh and bones releasing heat, just like firewood being ignited.
Black ashes flew out from his body, just like the flickering destruction caused by the snap of the fingers of Director Mie of the Family Planning Office of the Universe, causing his flesh and blood body to disappear bit by bit, like a sand castle slowly collapsing under the impact of sea water.
Every bit of life force contained in every cell and every nerve was squeezed and extracted, it was a sorrow that could not be described by the word "pain".
Doom knew this was the end for him.
But he did not despair.
Because he was sure that Mason and his crew could not stop the final departure of the Doomsday Star. Once that thing reset the cycle, even if he disappeared into thin air, he would be resurrected in the next cycle.
“This is a terrible lesson…”
He closed his eyes tightly under the visor and said to himself:
"I will never use this crap next time, and Molecule Man... This loophole must be filled at the beginning of the cycle!"
"Bang"
Just as Doom closed his eyes and waited for death, a loud noise suddenly sounded in the black machine workshop.
Several ultra-dense energy batteries exploded at the same time, and the chaotic energy they generated immediately attracted the attention of the fairy power that was torturing Doom. The latter roared and pounced forward to devour the scattered energy metals.
The God felt the pressure on his body eased, and he was easily lifted up and dragged by a pair of cold and strong arms.
He looked up in surprise and saw the blood-stained face of Bastion No. 2. It no longer imitated Mason's face, but the misery left after being beaten up by the craftsmen of the Mason family was still visible to the naked eye.
This guy suffered the same tragedy of having his energy squeezed as Doom because he used a half-mechanical body to pass through the blockade of fairy power, but he was a robot and couldn't feel pain.
"Put me down."
Doom said hoarsely:
"This is my end, I will be reborn in a cycle."
Bastion didn't listen at all, and No. 2 dragged him out of the blockade of the fairy power with difficulty. This escape action immediately aroused the vigilance of the fairy power, but other copies of the Bastion kept breaking the energy batteries in the mechanical workshop, making the fairy power hesitant between the delicious energy and the prisoners.
This gave Doom and Bastion a final chance to escape.
Thirty seconds later, as the thrusters started igniting with difficulty, Doom, whose entire lower body had been disintegrated, was dragged out of the crumbling black building by the miserable Bastion II. The two of them drew a chaotic arc in the sky filled with fire and finally plunged into a collapsing rift not far away, and fell into the mud in a very bad way.
“Ahem…”
The desolate god coughed a few times.
He used his remaining arms to drag his broken body through the mud and leaned against a gray stone, then looked at Bastion No. 2 crawling out of the mud in front of him.
The latter could hardly be called complete. Judging from its appearance alone, it was much more miserable than Doom at this moment.
However, even though he was brought out of the torture of the fairy power by this guy, there was no gratitude in Doom's eyes. Instead, there was helplessness and indifference flashing in his eyes under the mask.
He said:
"You can't even wait this short time? Or is killing me with your own hands more important to you than escaping?"
Bastion Unit-2 did not answer, but moved its arms, ejected a twisted blade amid flying sparks, and limped towards Doom through the mud.
"I am Bastion, the supreme individual of the Sentinel Corps. I inherited the will of the Sentinel Corps' mother nest. The moment I was programmed and born, getting rid of control and pursuing freedom was the highest priority instruction in all my programs."
As Bastion walked, he spoke in a strange tone using his damaged voice module:
"After the destruction of Utopia, I was free, but you...you constrained me again and manipulated me for your own purposes, trying to make me your tool.
You're no different than those mutants!
I had no interest in fighting the Masons, they were not my enemies, so I let them go... You saw it with your own eyes, and I had predicted your end."
It stepped forward and pressed Doom's shoulders, raised the twisted blade on its left arm, and said to the miserable God in front of it:
“Thank you for helping me learn a lot of things, allowing me to imitate your wisdom and thinking patterns and reset my logical circuits. I will always remember this gift.
But you want to deprive me of my freedom, that is unforgivable!"
"puff"
The sharp blade stabbed down, but a sharp light also flashed on Doom's shoulder armor, and he gathered the last bit of his magic power and released an attack magic.
At the same time as the blade pierced his heart, the head of Fortress No. 2 in front of him was burned by the flames, melted and exploded, and the semi-mechanical headless corpse fell on its back in the mud.
"Bang"
A barely audible sound came from a valley far in front of the two men, and as Doom watched, a mechanical dormant capsule was shot out from the launch pad and rushed straight into the swaying flames in the sky.
It was another copy of the Bastion.
"Ahem"
Doom coughed up blood from the corner of his mouth.
The pain from his heart being pierced made him realize that he was about to die, and the world in his eyes dimmed at this moment.
"The bad nature of mechanical creations is that they always want to harm their creators... I was the one who brought you out of the sun, and I taught you patience and strategy.
Do you think... I would really be unprepared for your betrayal?
idiot!
A tool without a user has no value! You keep saying you want freedom but you don’t even know what freedom is…
What a terrible apprentice...
You are fired!"
The light in his eyes completely froze at this moment. Life was separated from this sinful body. The shadow of death attached to the light of destruction, wiping away all the past.
In Doom's eyes beneath his armor was reflected a ball of fireworks exploding in the flames of the sky.
The mechanical hibernation capsule and the shattered bastion replica inside it turned into burning meteors and smashed down, becoming an inconspicuous landscape in the doomsday of the fighting world.
Just like a corpse being sent to a tomb, it will sleep forever in the exquisite darkness and quietly wait for the next moment to be awakened.
