"I'm too arrogant." The doctor laughed. It wasn't the kind, elder-like laugh he'd had before, nor was it meant to lighten the mood with a joking smile. It sounded cheerful, but rather bitter, filled with melancholy. "I've used you to change so many things that were destined to be impossible. My mastery of human nature has made everything I do so easy that I didn't even notice my growing arrogance."
"Stop, stop. Why do I feel like you're beating around the bush to point at me and the Cellman?" Tony Stark raised his hand, palm straight, in a gesture of prohibition, his head turned away, eyes closed, a look of disbelief. "When it comes to arrogance, there's no one in the group more serious than us two, right?"
"But you've already been reflecting on it, haven't you? As for the Cell Man... when he talked to me before, I felt that he had reflected on it a bit too much. I still went to him in the past, and I wasn't so timid, but I couldn't help but look at him."
"But it's not fair for me to say these things. My past has been forgotten, so I'm not qualified to comment."
The doctor was silent for a moment, his loose clothes hiding all his expressions well, until the ghost stepped lightly on his head and patted his head gently.
This scene seemed familiar to me a long time ago.
The Doctor had long known that ghosts were very sensitive to changes in mood. The other party was trying to comfort him. He dispelled a little of his frustration, and a smile slowly formed on the face beneath the black mask.
Sometimes the doctor himself doesn't even notice what kind of situation he is in. He can point out other people's problems or comfort them, but he is always negligent when it comes to his own situation.
He reached up and touched the ghost sitting above him, then continued, "I hope you'll listen to my full complaint."
"Go on," Tony Stark shrugged. "I've already complained enough to you. If you don't come back with more complaints, I'll start to wonder if I have too many people to deal with."
"Then I will continue."
The doctor was just about to nod when he seemed to have thought of something. He reached out to steady the ghost above his head, and then slowly completed the nod.
"The starry sky of the Terra continent is unique. Even with the technological development of our world, no one has explored the starry sky. We know nothing about it."
"This synopsis might be a bit too long, so let me highlight the key points. There was a... I don't know what to call her, but after thinking about it, I decided to go back to the most basic terms. Anyway, there was a woman."
"She wanted to see space, even though her friends tried to dissuade her by analyzing the pros and cons, even though it was a one-way trip, even though there might not be what she expected there, these did not stop her from taking a gamble."
"...I tried to dissuade Saria before she went up. I told her that she could go up sooner or later. Rhodes Island is no longer the simple medical company it once was. She just needs to wait a little longer. There's no need to take risks with something that can be safely achieved in the future."
"She asked me how long I would have to wait. She said I had done a great feat by developing a cure for oripathy, but could this cure be waited for? She told me that some things have to be done by someone, just like what I had done."
"At this moment, I deeply realized how blessed it was to have you as my backup, but she didn't. So she only had two choices: either give up on this thing that she had spent countless time and money on, and regret silently every time she looked back at the starry sky, waiting for a result that might not even come true, or go and see it, and it doesn't matter if she never comes back."
"I remained silent. Of course, I could have stopped her with force, but what was the point? The light in her eyes was so bright. I was protecting the flame and moving forward, so I couldn't extinguish someone else's."
"So I gave up. In fact, what I said can't even describe one ten-thousandth of the wonderfulness of that incident. Some things can only be understood by experiencing and seeing them firsthand."
The doctor remembered himself standing below, looking up at the starry sky, and softly said good night.
"this is all."
When he said the last sentence, he closed his eyes and stood there quietly. Tony Stark patted the man's shoulder, organized his words several times, and gave up.
Just when everyone fell silent, there was a shocking noise coming from the moon, and Tony Stark immediately looked over there in surprise.
He waved his hands, and the blue transparent screen displayed the heartbeats of all the members of the chat group. He stared at it nervously in case of any unexpected situation.
537 is about to face
The people on the moon came up with a plan that was almost crazy compared to their world.
They planned to find a piece of soft land and dig directly down to the center of the earth.
This wonderful plan was thought up by the Valkyrie on the spur of the moment, because they had been mining for a long time and had not found a way down.
However, this plan was indeed influenced by Wilson. She had heard him muttering some random things and wrote them down. The reason why Wilson had such a rebellious idea naturally came from Steve.
In short, a series of events led to this interesting coincidence, and they actually dug down along the soft ground.
At first, the Valkyrie was planning to use a manuscript, but Little Red Riding Hood just swiped a card, and they were wrapped in something black and descended like a drill.
Little Red Riding Hood stopped before it fell a few steps. The black cage turned into a piece of card hanging in the air. Before Little Red Riding Hood could reach out to take it, it turned into ashes inch by inch.
They stood on the soft soil, and before they could stand straight, cracks appeared in the ground. The place where they were standing began to sink and then split.
What followed was a natural decline - how could it be possible?
A book was read by Vic Barton before it fell. She might have anticipated this fall, or she might have just taken precautions.
In short, six huge, black, furry bees flew out and hooked each one with their claws. I don’t know if it was a coincidence or what, but it was just right.
Worse things were just beginning. Light emerged from the cracks, and the surface alone was so bright that it made people dizzy. Ori climbed up without thinking, stepping on the little bees, and swung a whip made of light to pull everyone to go faster.
Even though Ori trusts Tony Stark very much, he is not willing to make himself lazy because of such trust and end up in a more dangerous situation.
Although the group members in the chat group will help the weak, they will also act as their mentors, guiding them in the direction of progress instead of letting them become irresponsible lazy people.
Even a lazy skeleton will have such a special day, standing in front of all monsters in inappropriate slippers, forming the last indestructible line of defense, until the moisture in the bone marrow is squeezed out and turned into sweat, and then the sweat is dried up.
As he was climbing up, he heard strange noises and white shadows crawled out of the gap again. Those troublesome creatures immediately floated up and chased after him.
They didn't run fast enough, and the flat, short limbs stuck to the Valkyrie's legs. The Valkyrie immediately shook her legs in disgust. The thing kept being stretched thinner and thinner, and it looked like it would break if blown, but it was still firmly stuck, like noodles that could not be thrown away, and it fluttered like a piece of paper in the wind.
The Valkyrie lifted up her other leg, grabbed the bee's leg with one hand, and with the other hand, she held her spear and stabbed it hard at the thing. When the thing was stabbed in, it was like ripples on the water surface, and slowly dissipated.
The Valkyrie breathed a sigh of relief. The unbearable feeling of being stuck to her body was finally shaken off along with the disappearance of the thing.
But that was just the beginning. Transparent tentacles, almost white, stretched out from the gaps and chased them. At the same time, they also keenly realized that they seemed to be being stared at by something.
A creepy gaze swept over them, as if their hearts were being tightened and they could hardly breathe.
The two Cuphead brothers were so scared that their teeth were chattering, especially Cuphead. For the first time, he experienced what it felt like to have fear that penetrated deep into the body, as if everything he had encountered before was not worth mentioning.
"...Something has woken up." Vic Barton grabbed the whip made of Ori's light and used some strength to climb onto the back of the little bee. He sat cross-legged on it and took out a book.
The jet-black bees, much larger than ordinary bees, bore her weight well.
"Turn off the sound reception." Vic Barton said this to everyone before reading.
The Valkyrie reacted the fastest. She had worked with the other party before, so she naturally knew the reason. The others were stunned for a moment, but their reactions were not slow either. After all, each of them had learned the ropes through countless battles.
As Vic Barton's deep voice appeared, the effect of "Bedtime Story" slowly unfolded. Although she was not sure whether these unknown creatures could fall asleep, considering that Tony Stark had said before that this creature was always asleep in some cases, since there was the concept of sleep, it might have some effect.
What's more, with the help of Wilson and the Queen of Shadow Peak, her books naturally underwent some changes. Except for the fact that "Bedtime Story" still had no effect on her, the books were enhanced to an unknown extent.
The movements of those phantoms gradually slowed down, and finally stopped and began to fall down. The tentacles that were originally spreading recklessly also stopped.
Ori had already attached himself to the wall with the help of the little bee, jumping left and right. As soon as he reached the ground, he fell down exhausted.
"We still have to go down." Vic Barton looked down and came to this conclusion.
"Are you kidding me?" Cuphead complained, his hair flaming. "I just ran out from under there!"
"This is a bit too aggressive." Little Red Riding Hood's eyes were fixed firmly on the ground from under her hood, her brows were furrowed. Her experience on the full moon night made her always have a bad impression of the moon.
"No." Ori stood up firmly, his tail flicking twice. "Everything that just happened proves that we're on the right path. We're going to solve this problem eventually, and that means we have to delve into the Moon's core. We can't just run away at this point."
"Detaching a battlefield is never on my list," the Valkyrie grinned. "I can't wait to sing a song for the battle."
"Let's go down now." The Valkyrie looked down, eager to try.
Ori wasn't anxious, but simply looked at Little Red Riding Hood. "We need to hide ourselves. Your abilities are far more extensive than we can handle. Can you make it so we can hide together?"
"Well, I haven't tried using cards other than attack cards on others. When I was doing missions with others before, they never asked for my help, and I didn't think about it. But now that you mention it, it did occur to me."
"Doesn't that just now count?" Cuphead couldn't help but yell.
"Not really. That's like changing the environment, like creating ice on the water. Others can naturally do the same as me."
"But anyway, I can try."
538
A beautiful red cloak covered everyone. The slightly rough red cloth was cut just right, making the close-fitting space suit look particularly beautiful. Cuphead even pulled the corner and turned around twice as if to show off.
If the situation wasn't urgent, he might have had time to make a face, pretend to be a vampire, and try to scare his good brother Mug.
They began to walk slowly down the cave, sticking to the wall and using various methods to slowly descend.
The light below was still as glaring, but the built-in screen quickly adjusted the visual scene it received, filtering it out to a much softer tone.
The dead silence that came from the soul began to gradually appear as they went deeper.
There was nothing underneath, it wasn't something they had dug out, it was just an empty space.
It's like an upright triangle, getting bigger as you go down, and all kinds of strange things are floating here.
At the beginning, it was still that white, transparent, funny-looking little man, like a thin layer of paper, or like flowing light.
Going down were long, slender shadows, stacked one on top of the other, their bodies intertwined and fused together as they lacked substance, densely packed together, and everywhere one could see thin limbs emerging from the belly or limbs of another tiny figure.
White, wriggling things that could barely be classified as tentacles flowed here. In fact, it looked more like a river, or a pool of unknown fluid. It wasn't so ugly, but it made people dare not take a second look.
Everyone quickened their pace, and Little Red Riding Hood unconsciously tugged at the corner of her cloak.
Further down, the shadow took on a human form, lying there, looking like a transparent person, with a face that was polished clean, floating quietly in the air, with water-like ripples on his body, and when the wind blew slightly, parts of his body would sway and holes would appear.
Further down, there were finally faces, flawless faces, with white shadowy wings vaguely shrouding them. They were like angels in myths and legends, lying quietly.
The Valkyrie couldn't help herself, so she took a closer look, then quickly backed away, rubbing her arms.
That face was made up of countless miniature faces, countless lifelike, breathing faces huddled together. It looked beautiful from a distance, but when you got a little closer, it was creepy.
Seeing people being scared back, Cuphead became curious and tiptoed over to take another look. Then he quickly rolled and crawled back into the team, wishing he could shrink himself.
Ori helplessly patted the other party with his tail and continued to move downwards.
Fortunately, the things were not piled densely, so they didn't have to peel them off one by one.
When they went deeper, they saw a ball of pure light, flowing like water, burning like fire, dissipating and gathering like clouds and smoke, and then there was nothing.
Then, his eyes suddenly opened.
In fact, the light did not change anything, but everyone sensed it, or saw it from a strange perspective, as the eyes opened and suddenly exploded in this strange and peaceful place.
This thing is clearly awake! The effect of the bedtime story has long since worn off, or perhaps it simply didn't have much of an effect! This is just a trap to lure them in!
The anger almost burned every one of them. The air in this place immediately became sticky, as if there was white light flowing in it. Any movement would be like being stuck in a swamp, making it impossible to move.
If they hadn't worn this, the consequences might not have been this bad.
Vic Barton subconsciously wanted to take out the book, but his movements were slowed down infinitely, and the angels had already flown over.
It’s more like floating or swimming than flying, and their wings are like some kind of flowing decoration. They feel like fish in water in this light-filled place.
The Valkyrie was terrified by such enemies. She pierced two of them with her spear, but such an action was a drop in the bucket considering the number of enemies. She took out a feather fan and fanned them hard.
The tornado rolled out and just picked up those light objects.
But more things rushed over, they surrounded them in an overwhelming manner, trying to kill them all here.
Ori calmly took out a huge light hammer and smashed it hard on the seemingly intangible light.
He had already anticipated that the other party might wake up.
They walked so smoothly, as if they were deliberately released here.
But this is also what they need. Otherwise, based on what they have seen and heard along the way, it would take an unknown amount of effort to force their way here.
The other party wanted them dead, and they also wanted to completely resolve this hidden danger, so they hit it off immediately, and eventually both sides fell into a trap they were willing to fall into.
When the huge light hammer hit the light, a strong shock wave spread out, and everyone was shaken by the shock wave. Even those angel-like creatures who were like fish in water in the light were almost thrown out with their bodies shaking.
The sticky white light surrounding them seemed to boil, struggling to squeeze through the gaps in their spacesuits.
Although the space suit Tony Stark made for them only provided protection, it was already a huge convenience. Otherwise, they would have to make considerable efforts just to fight here.
Good armor always provides a lower limit for tolerance.
This is a kind of confidence.
The roar of thunder suddenly appeared in this small space. It was Vic Barton who opened a book.
She opened another book, and dark tentacles crawled out from the void. They should have been vines from some swamp, but now they were filled with the smell of a mixture of abyss and darkness.
However, in the bright environment, the thing only broke up a few flying shadows before it was unable to dissipate. It was not as useful as the thunder.
The Valkyrie subconsciously shuddered when the thunder sounded. That thing didn't distinguish between friend and foe. She was hit hard by it last time, and even her hair was singed.
She didn't know how long the thunder roared. Vicbaaton clutched the flying paper ashes in her hands, and a distressed expression appeared on her face. She almost over-exploited the potential of these books, even overused them.
This was unbelievable for her, who had always loved books, but the current situation was not the time to feel sorry for the books.
Little Red Riding Hood gritted her teeth and took out a pitch-black card. There seemed to be black shadows flowing on it. Creatures like the shadows of the little knight flew out of the card and wrapped up those shadows. The situation seemed to be improving.
Cuphead and Mug also stood back to back, with red energy in their hands, and suddenly released a huge bullet.
If it weren't for the strange cracks that began to appear in their vision, they would have looked like they had the victory in their grasp.
