Postscript: Ding, Mr. Master, you have a new order. Chapter 1 Although I am a counterfeit dealer, I still have to say that counterfeit goods are harmful to people!
What was the Big Bang like? What were the successive eras like?
According to the original theory of the Fusion Plan and the further development of the Fox Nest researchers, it is said that when the New Utopia Plan enters the final step, all the currently existing parallel worlds and planes will be merged into a "cosmic egg", and then it will be used as the source to repeat the Big Bang and complete the reshaping of the stars at the cosmic level.
Mason didn't know much about this, but according to his original idea, perhaps after the final fusion occurred, the entire new system would undergo a "compression" at the space-time level, and then become the source of the Big Bang.
It turns out that his ideas are a bit complicated.
There is no process of material compression. At the moment of the final impact, the cosmic egg of the unity of all realms has formed a "source point". Although the cosmic egg is a huge system in various senses, in terms of the coordinates of a higher-level and more grand system, it is indeed a "point".
A point where mass can be released.
The moment the white cosmic frequency originating from the cosmic tuning fork completes the process of merging all parallel worlds together, the change of eras enters the next stage.
It started to expand again.
The once complex and fragile vesicle-like parallel world was replaced by a unique cosmic system with complex overlapping dimensions, allowing this universe, which was a "sickly child" at its birth, to finally enter the marginal expansion that a normal universe should have. It was like a "great development", with white light extending .
That means the edge of the universe is constantly extending outward.
It's like lighting a fire in endless darkness. The fire itself doesn't explode or fill the darkness, but the light it emits can illuminate far away.
The process was so grand that even Lord Mason, who was watching, couldn't help but sigh in admiration.
However, considering the process of him jumping out of the universe and entering other areas, he should not have seen this process but should have entered the "superior universe" or the real "parallel universe".
Therefore, the only explanation is that something went wrong in the process of him jumping away from his home universe. He was unable to reach where his "brothers" were in one step, but was trapped in a strange area where he could watch the expansion of the universe.
That's right.
There's something wrong with that key.
Mason sighed for the thirty-seventh time, withdrew his gaze from the rapidly expanding light of the cosmic egg in the distance, and scanned the area where he was. There were no stars or galaxies here, no light, and no corresponding darkness.
It's empty here, there's nothing.
The Universe's Master Power Armor that the engineers had recreated in the Family's workshop was in good working order, allowing Mason to avoid getting hurt in this strange area. However, the power armor, which was powered by the mysterious origin substance Element X and therefore did not have to worry about energy consumption, had its energy consumption rise rapidly after entering here.
It can no longer draw energy from the physical universe, so Mason is now in a state of "eating up all the resources".
The power armor that sustains his life will run out of energy in 8 hours, and then he will have to face the "void" with his body.
"This should be the void, right? I heard from Watu that the gap between universes is called the void. It is the embodiment of primordial chaos. It is said that the secret of the origin of the universe is hidden in the void."
Mason shut down all unnecessary functions of the power armor, leaving only the observation system for sending out distress signals and the life-support system with the lowest energy consumption, allowing himself to sit in this empty area and perform strange Brownian motions like an astronaut walking in space.
He realized something was wrong when he felt a strange sense of weightlessness after pushing open the door and taking a step forward, but it was too late to retreat then, and he couldn't retreat to a cosmic system where an era had already begun to change.
The 'Man in the Light' had warned him before that he was an outsider and would interfere with the establishment of the new universe system and prevent it from entering a self-consistent stage.
Mason had no choice but to fall into the void, but although it was hard to accept, it was expected.
"I shouldn't have put any hope on my luck. When the jeweler told me that there was a very small chance that this thing would fail, I should have realized that something would go wrong."
The captain sighed in his power armor. He tried to calm down and looked back at the cosmic egg behind him that was still "encircling the land" in the void quadrant.
That place was neither far nor near from where he was. At its current speed of expansion, it would probably take several days to reach Mason and then incorporate him back into the territory of the new universe.
By then I would have been dead.
There is nothing in this void. It is like a strange devouring field that continuously consumes the energy in the power armor. Although he will not starve to death, it will definitely not be a comfortable outcome if all the energy in his body is drained out.
He glanced at the unresponsive communication system on the power armor's operating screen, and after taking a deep breath, Mason made a decision.
"We have to find a way to save ourselves!"
He whispered, and began to think of ways to ask for help from the outside world.
If the void is the gap between universes, then the probability of meeting a passerby here is probably much smaller than encountering a ship on a deserted island in the Pacific Ocean. If I draw a Mickey Mouse pattern here, will the most powerful legal department immediately come to sue me in a vehicle that can travel through the void?
Hmm... Let's consider this as the last resort when all other measures fail.
After entertaining his slightly nervous mind with this nonsensical joke, Mason really began to think that he was probably the first life form in the universe to step into the void, so he could give up the idea of asking for help from people he knew well.
At the moment, the most promising way is to ask for help from the guys who sent me into a specific cosmic system, but the key has been used, and I seem to have no way to contact those guys...wait!
Mason blinked suddenly.
Who said no?
There is actually a method that can achieve real-time communication with them. I have complained about the damn item description countless times before. It has been confirmed that the thing is real-time feedback and there is a guy on duty on the other end for a long time.
so……
The captain's eyes immediately lit up.
He looked around at the empty space in all directions, and after hesitating for a second, he made a decision immediately.
"One third of the power armor's energy is converted into the search module! Use me as the source to detect any possible physical matter in the eight void quadrants."
He gave orders to the power armor.
This immediately drew a warning from the power armor's AI. Operating in this mode would cause a power armor that could last for eight hours to run out of energy within 30 minutes.
In the current situation, it is simply courting death.
"Disable warning, continue to operate, don't worry about energy consumption."
Faced with warnings, the captain chose to act on his own.
The next moment, with him as the source, the detection module was fully turned on, and hundreds of kilometers around were included in the detection system. The spherical drones were also all released, flying in all directions at the fastest speed to search for any contactable materials.
These spherical combat drones share energy with the power armor, and after they are all started, the energy consumption of the power armor soars again.
A 27-minute countdown appeared on the projection in front of Mason, but he didn't pay any attention to it. He just checked the message sent back by the drone, and the result was disappointing.
This void is indeed named correctly, it is really very, very empty...
There was no detectable substance, but Mason did not lose hope. He turned on the micro mother box installed on the power armor and began to make random jumps in the void with the drone system.
This naturally increased energy consumption again. After three jumps, the disability warning countdown in front of him had reached a precarious 7 minutes.
The captain turned a deaf ear to the shrill warning sound coming from inside the power armor. After confirming that there were no touchable objects in the area after three jumps, he made up his mind and started the fourth jump again.
The light of the mother box wrapped around the power armor and made it disappear, then it reappeared somewhere in the boundless void. This time, as soon as it jumped out, the disability warning in front of it turned into a 20-second countdown.
Mason sighed, opened his bag, and pressed the Star Emperor's Heart processor into the connection port on the front of the power armor with a click. The abundant energy filled the power armor in the next moment.
The disability warning also disappeared instantly, and the full power armor system module was activated.
This seems to have solved the energy problem, but in fact it is just a temporary solution. The previous use of the Universe Emperor's power armor to connect to the Star Emperor's Heart has proved that this thing will quickly pollute the power armor's database. With this level of consumption, perhaps Mason doesn't even need to wait another 30 minutes before his own protective power armor will be contaminated by the Universe Emperor's consciousness.
At that time... haha, the emperor will probably be merciful and give the captain a quick and clean death.
"The detection module has been overloaded to its maximum range! Now it's a life-and-death struggle, give it your all."
Mason made up his mind and stepped on the accelerator to the bottom on his way to death.
The detection module instantly entered triple overload, doubling the detection distance that had already reached two thousand kilometers, and then made a fifth jump. He was betting that he could find even one touchable substance before the power armor went out of control.
"Shua"
Mason appeared again in a still empty place, but this time the goddess of luck finally favored him.
The moment it jumped out, UAV No. 17 sent a special signal, indicating that it had detected a special substance in the void that conflicted with the void system.
This discovery made the captain's heart beat faster instantly. He immediately started the mother box transmission again with UAV No. 17 as the coordinates. The moment the transmission was started this time, Mason could even hear the clear and creepy sound of mechanical deformation coming from inside the power armor.
Unicron's erosion of power armor may have entered a new phase.
There is not much time left for myself!
“What…what is this?”
When he appeared at the location of UAV No. 17, Mason saw the special substance discovered by the UAV at a glance.
He looked at the little gadget in front of him and floating in the boundless void. It was like some kind of transparent sponge that was being decomposed by the void. Its shapeless appearance looked very much like a rapidly moving cell under a microscope.
It looked very strange at first glance, but now was not the time to be picky.
Mason reached out, opened the gauntlet of his power armor, touched the strange, weak "sponge" with his fingers, and held it in his hand.
During this short one-second process, he felt the void chaos pulling at his existence, as if countless forces were tearing at his skin. The pain from the needles made Mason grit his teeth.
The moment the hand armor closed, he concentrated his energy to ignore the increasingly clear deformation of the power armor and the stroboscopic signals of the control system in front of him as if it was invaded by a virus.
He silently recited the names of Harley, Quinn, and Ciri in his heart, letting his lovely wives give him the strength to persevere. Then he closed his eyes and waited patiently for a few seconds. A familiar information label bloomed before his eyes:
Lost Souls
Quality: Special Spirit
Status: Weak, Collapsed
Description: The alien soul that accidentally passed through the Wall of Origin for unknown reasons drifted hard in the boundless void, waiting for the favor of an unknown fate or being swallowed by the void unconsciously.
Item Description: F*ck! Where on earth did you send yourself, you idiot? Even the cosmic divination magic of the Raven can't find you. You really have entered a place that no one has ever been before. Hang on! Mason Cooper! The Naglfar has set off to travel through the void quadrant. Protect the Lost Soul in your hand. The distress message it emits can guide my ship in a certain direction! You are really a clever little ghost. I never thought that someone would fall into your bad situation and think of using such a crooked way to ask for help. Ha, I knew that setting this thing to real-time feedback would definitely be a... F*ck, I can't write anymore. Take care of yourself.
“Damn it! I actually felt warm because of the news from this bastard… Is this the legendary suspension bridge effect?”
When Mason saw the long string of words on the item description, all the worries and pressure in his heart were swept away in an instant.
He relaxed his nerves and body with great ease, turned the power armor that had begun to deform externally back into self-discipline, and in the expanded cockpit placed his left hand, which was still trembling due to the stimulation of the void, in front of his eyes.
The lost soul that was trembling in the void due to weakness and devouring seemed to feel safe in Mason. The originally weak sponge-like structure also searched quickly and gathered into an irregular soul stone in Mason's palm.
The captain placed it in front of his eyes, and through the structure of the soul stone he could vaguely see a black-haired young man about his age curled up in the darkness.
He understood immediately.
Own!
I think I was rescued from the void by those guys in the same way.
When he died in an accident from his real hometown, his soul passed through the mysterious "Wall of Origin" and fell into this void. Those bastards rescued him and put him back into Gotham City as Mason Cooper.
Ha, so this is their job?
The captain curled his lips. He had thought that these outsiders were so impressive, but after all they turned out to be a group of void salvagers. However, they were just okay.
Mason thought to himself.
If they didn't exist, my soul, which was accidentally lost in the void, would have no other way to go except to be devoured.
So, let’s just regard the brothers I have never met as a group of good people.
"Click"
A clear mechanical deformation sound rang in Mason's ears. When he opened his eyes, he saw that the X-alloy armor in front of the power armor cockpit had been reversed to form a blurry large mechanical face.
Although he couldn't see the specific expression on that face, Mason could already feel a sense of hatred and anger.
The mechanical rod in the control cabin also deformed and twisted into a huge mechanical hand, clamping the neck of Mason, who had nowhere to hide. The energy from the Heart of the Star Emperor filled it, making it impossible for him to complete the reconstruction of the water body.
Unicron, who had awakened in his power armor, let out a low, evil wail, as if he was going to strangle Mason to death in this dead silence of the void.
revenge!
He wants revenge!
The Soul Stone in Mason's left hand seemed to sense the danger, and in panic it tried to turn back into a sponge-like soul body and escape, but Mason clasped his fingers tightly.
He said in his heart:
“Don’t be afraid, I will protect you, brother… just like they protected me, don’t be afraid, they are coming soon, we can all survive… My story has just ended, but your new life has not yet begun.
Hang in there!
Don’t be afraid.”
"Ahem"
They say don't be afraid, but in fact the situation has become extremely bad.
Unicron completely controlled Mason's power armor, and the force He exerted made Mason's larynx crackle under the heavy load.
The captain's consciousness began to blur, he went into a suffocation spasm, and even white light and hallucinations appeared before his eyes.
He saw Quinn, who was pregnant, crying in front of her own tombstone accompanied by Harley and Ciri, and his own K team paid tribute to his death in mourning...
"Click"
The harsh sound of metal interrupted Mason's strange imagination. In his blurred vision, he saw a forked blade flashing with a dim light, cutting an X-shaped crack across the twisted metal face of Unicron, and then, with sparks flashing, fingers wrapped in a halo of moonlight tore open the closed power armor.
"Ha, Goddess of the Moon, I finally caught up. Can you still move? Little Mason, your pirate brother is here to save you. Remember to kowtow to me later to thank me for my kindness."
A figure whose face could not be seen clearly appeared in front of him.
He could only see this damn guy still talking nonsense in such a desperate situation. He was wearing a strange black pirate hat and was tearing open his sturdy main power armor of the universe with his bare hands. And in the boundless void behind him, a majestic warship wrapped in coldness and darkness was standing in it.
A strange black flag was fluttering in the air, and there seemed to be blurry figures walking back and forth on the deck. There was even a blue-haired girl fishing on the side of the ship?
Are you serious?
Fishing in the void?
and……
How come this is still a wooden boat! Is this how you cross the void?
That’s awesome, bro.
