Marvel: I Awake the Little Cosmos-Chapter 537 - 505: The Unknown Emerging from the Water (Second Update)
The Sentinel Robot arrived at Quantico Military Base on a transport plane at five o’clock in the afternoon.
Professor X also brought Magneto and Jean to this place immediately.
Putting on an act requires complete dedication.
At this moment, all of Quantico Town was under a complete lockdown; any entry or exit not only required document verification but also permission.
Even the assistant to the President, when bringing Professor X and others to the town, had to undergo a series of phone communications before the guarding soldiers opened the gate.
Three cars quickly arrived at Quantico Military Base.
Upon entering the sight.
After two years have passed, Quantico Military Base has been completely rebuilt. If one overlooks the memorial that now appears in everyone’s view, there wouldn’t be any traces of rebuilding visible.
The towering memorial in front of everyone was built to commemorate the soldiers who died here two years ago.
Names densely packed, covering the entire memorial.
The assistant to the President looked at the memorial without directly looking at Jean, but instead using the corner of his eye to observe Jean: "The names on this monument total five hundred and thirty-two people, not including some of the relatives living here."
Although the assistant did not look at Jean.
Jean still noticed, knowing these words were directed at her, glanced at the assistant: "Then you should feel grateful."
The assistant instinctively looked at Jean.
Jean smiled and said, "A planet of life, my dad could destroy it without blinking an eye, but two years ago he only destroyed your military base. My dad was already very merciful; you all should feel grateful."
The assistant listened to Jean’s words, feeling a chill rush from the tailbone to the top of the head.
And at this moment.
Jean seemed to think of something, staring directly at the assistant.
"By the way, do you know my dad has a famous saying?"
"What is... it?"
"Destroying you, no concern to me!"
Jean’s smile remained as she looked at the assistant: "So don’t try to understand my dad with your thoughts; it will only lead to your own disgrace, maybe even bring a doom upon you."
The assistant’s expression froze because of a guilty conscience, listening to Jean’s words, always feeling Jean seemed to have seen through their plan.
But—
The plan to eliminate the Demon King was devised by the White House and the Pentagon; he was merely following orders.
The assistant thought so in his heart.
But he forgot, it didn’t matter what he thought; what mattered was what Hawk thought.
As everyone knows.
Hawk’s famous sayings, besides "Destroying you, no concern to me," also included a classic saying.
This saying he hadn’t told Jean yet, so Jean didn’t know.
That saying is!
In an avalanche, every snowflake is...
Bah!
In an avalanche, no snowflake is innocent.
For Hawk, after he’s offered his goodwill, forgiving the enemy once, when it comes to the second time, he won’t say any saintly rhetoric like only killing the ringleader.
He will only eliminate without mercy, root and branch.
After a while.
Under the guidance of the assistant, Professor X, Magneto, and others arrived at a research building in Quantico.
At this moment, the five-meter-tall Sentinel Robot, which didn’t seem to be an earthly creation, showing no signs of welding, appearing to be seamlessly one piece, finally came into everyone’s view.
Sitting in a wheelchair, Professor X instinctively unleashed a mind probe towards the Sentinel Robot.
But...
Besides feeling a very familiar presence left behind, he felt no other trace anymore.
Professor X felt this residual presence gave him a very familiar feeling, but he just couldn’t figure out where it’s from.
Until he noticed Jean, whose expression shifted slightly upon seeing the Sentinel Robot as well, he realized.
Right.
This residual presence is Hawk Phoenix’s."
Professor X’s heart stirred, instinctively looking again at the Sentinel Robot that was quietly placed in the hall, currently being inspected by eight or nine scientists.
Jean also felt somewhat shocked inside seeing this Sentinel Robot with her father’s presence remaining.
"How could this thing have my dad’s presence?"
"That’s right."
Far away in Palm Street, New York, Wanda also curiously glanced at Hawk sitting beside her: "This Sentinel Plan is so powerful, it can even simulate your presence?"
Hawk also looked at the five-meter-tall Sentinel Robot appearing in the Chaos Magic Mirror in front of them, hearing Wanda’s question, his gaze slightly shifted, glanced at Wanda, then fell back onto the Sentinel Robot: "I don’t know."
Wanda froze slightly, looking at Hawk.
"You don’t know?"
"Yes."
"Hiss!"
Wanda instinctively took a cold breath, then frowned: "Then could this affect your plan?"
Hawk didn’t speak, instead, his gaze on the five-meter-tall Sentinel Robot: "No, this residual presence, though less than one percent of mine, is genuine and can’t be simulated by them."
There’s a saying.
The Sentinel Robot might mimic his powers, but it definitely can’t disguise his presence.
Because his presence is unique.
And at this moment.
Hawk seemed to have thought of something, his eyes brightened.
"No, this thing is Adamantium metal."
"You’ve mentioned it before."
"No, last time I said it was Adamantium alloy."
Hawk’s gaze shifted towards Wanda: "This time I’m saying it’s Adamantium metal."
Wanda also reacted.
"Celestial God Team?"
"Yes."
Adamantium alloy is Adamantium alloy, made by refining a small amount of Adamantium metal with other metals.
Whereas true Adamantium metal can only be produced by the Celestial God Team because Adamantium metal forms the bodies of the Celestial God Team.
But there is one thing that’s certain.
Since there is Adamantium alloy here, there must be Adamantium metal.
After all, it involves a matter of sequence.
However...
Wanda was slightly puzzled: "Even if this Sentinel robot is made of Adamantium metal, what does it have to do with the residue of your presence?"
Hawk’s lips curled into a smile, he looked at Wanda.
"Do you know where they procured the Adamantium metal to make the Sentinel robot?"
"Earth’s?"
"To be precise, from the 616 Cosmos, from the Celestial God I killed."
Hawk nodded, then looked again at the Sentinel robot: "That presence is my presence from the 616 Cosmos."
His presence, he would not mistake it.
The Adamantium metal used in this Sentinel robot is precisely from the body of the Celestial God member he killed in the 616 Cosmos.
Wanda heard this and her expression turned heavy.
"Celestial Gods have arrived."
"It’s quite normal."
Compared to Wanda’s heavy expression, Hawk’s expression became much more relaxed, even more than before.
Wanda noticed this and was curious: "I can’t sense the presence of the Celestial God Team, shouldn’t I be worried? Why do you look more relaxed than before?"
Hawk smiled faintly.
"That’s certain, enemies hiding in the dark are the most terrifying, but those exposed openly are never really threatening."
"You’ve always known the Celestial God Team members would come here?"
"Initially it was just a guess."
Hawk honestly looked at Wanda: "You forgot, you repaired my timeline, after fixing it, my timeline truly transcended the Main Multiverse, and Eternal, is the manifestation of all Main Multiverse timelines."
Wanda frowned: "I don’t understand one thing."
Hawk chuckled.
"What?"
"I don’t understand, since what you’re pursuing is what Eternal doesn’t want to see, why doesn’t he come in person? After all, you’ve mentioned before, now even if you face the five Creator Gods, you’d only end up in a panic-stricken escape."
"Yes."
"So?"
"As you’ve already answered, if they come in person, I could only escape in panic." 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
"And then?"
"Creation is difficult, but destruction is easy."
Hawk and Wanda looked at each other, he said in a ghostly tone: "Eternal could indeed come personally, but that would break the rules, and once the rules are broken, everyone can act as they please, and I would spare no expense to destroy the Main Multiverse."
At present, both he and Eternal are playing the game within the rules.
Hawk pursues his own transcendence, while Eternal and the Main Multiverse themselves are trying to stop his transcendence.
But Hawk hasn’t broken the game rules, he hasn’t ignited his path to transcendence by destroying the Main Multiverse.
Therefore, Eternal can’t step in personally, because if he does, it breaks the rules, and Hawk could reasonably counterattack in self-defense.
"Actually, the easiest way for me to pursue transcendence is by recklessly lighting up my path through slaughter and destruction, even wiping out the Main Multiverse, I would remain the only one."
"But I didn’t do that, similarly, Eternal cannot do that either."
"Not even considering where his true form is now, but just saying he certainly wouldn’t want to see the time I destroy everything in many timelines."
"Maybe I can’t transcend, but I would certainly be destroying recklessly."
"As long as he dares to step in."
"So Eternal doesn’t dare to step in, and the Celestial God Team as his top minions would naturally do everything possible to stop me."
"That’s also why when I thought of being reborn through death before, there was some fear of death."
"You’re right."
"Death actually isn’t terrifying."
"The unknown is the fundamental root of fear."
"Now that the unknown is known, there’s nothing to be afraid of."
"Besides..."
Hawk spoke realistically, looked at Wanda, his lips curved into a smile.
"Compared to dying at the hands of a Sentinel robot."
"I think letting the Celestial God Team win a battle is more interesting, isn’t it?"
"..."
