"who are you?"

The moment he saw the neutral beauty, Matthew was instinctively vigilant.

The unstoppable desire is surging.

The desire to find the real name, the desire to monopolize Lucifer, and...

"I do not need you!"

Quickly realizing that the neutral beauty in front of him might have something to do with the endless family, Matthew suppressed the desire inspired by the neutral beauty and prepared to see off the guests.

However, the neutral beauty does not intend to let Matthew go.

In other words, he enjoyed Matthew's ambivalence when he realized the existence of desire and tried to restrain it but was burned by it.

He said to Matthew: "You know who I am, why do you want to drive me away? Because you are afraid of me, afraid of the ugliness in your heart that you have to face because of my existence, right?"

"My heart—"

"Not ugly?"

The neutral beauty chuckled, stretched out her hand, and stroked Matthew's cheek: "Even a divine creature known as a saint cannot achieve true desirelessness. Desire is the essence of life, whether you are an animal or a plant, As long as you are alive and longing to be alive, you will be haunted by desire.

Even, for some beings in extreme moods, longing for death is a desire.No living thing escapes the clutches of desire, and I am desire itself! "

He enjoyed watching Matthew's gradually painful face due to his confession, and stuck out his tongue, trying to lick Matthew's cheek: "I like you, you are one of the most beautiful creatures I have ever seen. By controlling You, I can control the most perfect creation in the world."

"Lucifer? Do you like Lucifer?" Matthew asked back.

Hearing this, the neutral beauty burst out laughing.

Matthew continued to ask: "Since you control the desires of all things, why don't you use your control over desires to bring Lucifer into your control? As far as I know, Lucifer does not exist without desires. He has desires. Defeating the Supreme God is the greatest desire of His existence."

"but……"

The face of the neutral beauty rolled over an unnatural twist, and her posture was cruising around Matthew enchantingly, spitting out a poisonous snake's temptation from her mouth: "Matthew, have you ever thought of monopolizing him? I mean Lucifer."

"I……"

"Don't tell me no! He is so perfect, who wouldn't want to monopolize him? Even I thought of monopolizing him, but unfortunately..."

"you failed?"

"He has no interest in me, or he has too many things that are more important than me to deal with."

The neutral beauty said with a little regret, and suddenly stopped, stood behind Matthew, put his hands around Matthew's waist, pressed his head on Matthew's shoulder, and gently tore: "Don't deceive yourself anymore, you It is impossible not to be interested in me, I am desire itself."

"Sorry, I'm really not interested in you, because I already know what I want and how to get what I want."

While speaking, a face grew out of the back of Matthew's head, and his hands twisted against his joints, forcibly tearing off the neutral beauty who surrounded him from behind!

"I don't need you! Desire! You have no value to me!"

"but I--"

"Get away from me immediately!"

Matthew said with a heavy tone: "Even if you are a member of the endless family! Get lost!"

"Matthew, you—"

"Desire" showed an aggrieved expression, turned and left reluctantly but obediently.

Of course, before leaving, He didn't forget to say harsh words.

"One day, you will take the initiative to find me! Please! You need me! All creatures in the universe need me!"

"No, I don't need you! Never! Not!"

After the tough reply, Matthew returned to the Avengers Building.

He was going to talk to Loki.

……

"Loki!"

Matthew stopped Loki who had just finished making out with Thor on the top floor: "Do you have time now?"

"You want to date me?"

Loki played dumb and looked at Matthew meaningfully.

Matthew: "I was found by 'desire' just now."

"So you decided to vent to me?"

Loki continued to play deaf and dumb.

Matthew: "You know which 'desire' I'm talking about, don't you?"

"But I don't want to be with you... well! I'm free now."

Rocky, who was frightened by the anger in Matthew's eyes, changed his words decisively, and looked at Matthew flatteringly: "Where do you want to talk?"

"Anywhere, but it has to be a safe open space."

"why?"

"Because 'Desire' hasn't left yet."

While talking, Matthew and Rocky took the elevator to the high-level apron of Fulian Building.

The cold wind at high altitude made the hem of their clothes rattle.

Loki looked at Matthew warily and expectantly, preemptively: "Why did 'Desire' come to you suddenly? I am his favored one."

"That's exactly what I wanted to ask you..." Matthew said, "Are you sure you never mentioned me before 'Desire'?"

"'Desire' exists in every corner of the universe, and there are traces of 'desire' in the bottom of every creature's heart. No secret can escape the insight of 'desire'."

Loki, who was unwilling to answer Matthew's question directly, deliberately blurred the subject with roundabout words: "'Desire' can always get what He wants, even gods can't escape the control of 'Desire'."

"So you never betrayed me subjectively, it's just that 'desire' naturally knows my existence."

"Yes!"

Loki shrugged briskly: "If you pulled me out to talk about 'desire', I think my answer is detailed enough!"

"But you also know that's not what I really care about."

Matthew looked at Loki meaningfully: "When did you get found by 'desire'?"

"'Desire' has always been in my heart."

Loki fooled around again.

Matthew shook his head and said: "The abstract desire has always been in your heart. When did the image desire appear in front of you? I'm talking about the 'desire' of the endless family."

"This one……"

"can not say?"

"If I say it, He will—"

"He won't, because his goal is me, not you."

Matthew pierces Loki's ambiguity, demanding that he tell him everything he knows.

Rocky was forced to admit that he had to admit: "You are right, 'Desire' came to me from the beginning because of you! We first met in Asgard, that is when the goddess of Sheba began The day before the riots in New York, He suddenly appeared in front of me and told me that He is the body of 'desire', the 'desire' that I cannot resist. He wants me to obey His arrangements in exchange for what I want."

"And you agreed?"

"Why didn't you agree? He looks much stronger than me, and he has indeed seen through me. He is the 'desire' of all things, and also my 'desire'."

Loki replied in a tone full of jealousy and pain: "I have been tortured by desires. I long to get rid of desires, but at the same time enjoy the happiness of being occupied by desires. Now, 'Desires' actively appeared in front of me and promised that as long as I help He satisfies all my 'desires' by doing things, why don't I help? This is a sure-fire business!"

"And then you showed up in New York in the form of a woman and cast a spell on Thor on purpose?"

"Yes, this will make everyone believe that I am really under the magic of the goddess Sheba."

Loki frankly admitted what he did: "I long to be admired by all people like a hero, but I don't have the patience to be a good person and do good deeds for decades. 'Desire' gives me opportunities, so that I can opportunistically use The smallest effort yields the greatest return.”

"But you screwed up almost everything." Matthew said unceremoniously, "The shelter of 'Desire' can only let you escape punishment every time."

"No, Matthew, I didn't mess up, not a single thing."

Loki smiled strangely, and there was a cunning light in his green eyes: "So far, almost everything you have done is under the control of 'desire', there are occasional deviations during the period, but it has little effect on the overall plan .”

"What did you say?"

Matthew gasped.

Loki's words made him think of a dangerous and vicious possibility: "I'm all in—"

"At least that's what I've been told. It's also possible that 'Desire' is bragging to me. After all, He is the God of Infinity, and we can't let others know that Infinity can also miscalculate."

Loki grumbled nonchalantly.

He is such a character, even if what he said at this moment may be heard by "Desire", he doesn't care.

Matthew showed a speechless expression because of this.

"I have to say that developing you into a favored person is the worst decision 'Desire' has ever made."

"I think so too, but 'Desire' doesn't necessarily think so."

With a smirk, Rocky patted Matthew on the shoulder: "Are you interested in cooperating with me? I swear I won't cheat you, and I will even help you, so that you can better get cheap from 'desire'."

"Aren't you afraid that 'Desire' will hear you?"

"He is the aggregation of the desires of all things in the world. He exists widely in the depths of everyone's heart. He knew from the beginning that I was such a bastard. How could he be angry because I did something that betrayed him?"

Loki said proudly, sticking his mouth to Matthew's ear: "I swear, I will not betray you."

"I don't believe your oath."

"Because I always betray my promises and deceive everyone who can?"

"Yes."

After speaking, Matthew shook off Loki who was posted, and was about to leave.

Loki chased after him unwillingly, and lobbied endlessly: "I also have a little face with Mephisto, and being an ally with me will definitely make a profit without losing money! And I always follow my inner choice, even if it is" Desire' can't completely control my heart. What he got was my obedience, and what you got was my sincere friendship..."

"I don't need that."

"But you will need these sooner or later. After all, your enemies are all hellish monarch-level demons who are no less powerful than Mephisto..."

Loki announced confidently.

Matthew stopped in his tracks.

He turned around and looked at Loki: "Since you know that my enemies are all hellish monarch-level demons that are no less powerful than Mephisto, you should know that I, who dare to confront hell-level demons, also have No less than the strength of a hellish monarch-level demon! The so-called evenly matched power!"

"Of course I know that your strength is comparable to that of your enemies, but I am not bad, not to mention there is a 'desire' behind me, 'desire' can make even the king-level devil of hell have to kneel down and obey Endless gods."

Rocky throws out an olive branch again, hoping that Matthew will accept his alliance request.

Matthew smiled, and said: "Every member of the endless family has the power to make the king-level devil of hell kneel and obey."

"so you--"

"I choose myself."

"but I--"

"If you insist on becoming my teammate, please let go of all your reserve and pride, and cooperate with me with sincerity! Instead of using the guise of cooperation, you still don't forget to stab me while jumping left and right."

After speaking, Matthew opened the door and left the apron square.

Loki, who was left behind, couldn't help but pouted and muttered: "This time, I sincerely want to..."

"What are you sincerely trying to do?"

The voice of "desire" sounded again, with an undeniable strength and majesty.

Loki, who was full of slander just a second ago, suddenly became extremely humble: "'Desire', my god, I worship at your feet piously..."

"Stop talking nonsense! Talk about serious business!"

……

With Spiderman as a tour guide, the doctor and Donna's New York travel plan can be described as rich and economical. After walking around, they ate and played all the delicious and interesting things, but the money spent was only one-fifth of the original plan.

In the evening, Spider-Man was about to take the doctor and Donna home, but suddenly turned around and found that the cemetery was nearby, so he asked the doctor and Donna to go to the opposite coffee shop for a cup of coffee, bought a bouquet of flowers, and walked into the cemetery in frustration .

Donna saw Spider-Man walking into the cemetery with flowers, and realized that there were people who were very important to Spider-Man buried in this cemetery. She stood up and wanted to follow Spider-Man, and stand up to comfort him at an appropriate time.

The doctor grabbed Donna and said, "What he needs most now is quietness, not comfort."

"But--"

"If you tell him that time can be turned back and the dead can be brought back to life, the entire history of New York will change."

"Doctor, how can you say such a thing! As if I must—"

Donna, who was told by the doctor about the central matter, retorted with wide-eyed eyes.

She has read Spider-Man's comics and knows that the two scars deep in Spider-Man's heart that will never heal are Uncle Ben's accidental death and his failure to save his beloved Gwen.

"Okay! I admit that I have selfishness! I very much hope that you will bring Spider-Man back to the time when the person he loves the most is still alive, so that he can enjoy the happy time with the person he loves again."

"But he will be shaken by it and will make wrong decisions when his fateful day comes."

The doctor sadly told Donna: "For Peter Parker, the deaths of Ben Parker and Gwen Stacy are fixed points that cannot be changed in his life as Spider-Man. If these two points are changed, The fate of Spider-Man will change, and so will the future of New York."

"So you obviously have the ability to bring Spider-Man back to when Ben Parker and Gwen Stacy were still alive, but you never mentioned it?"

"Yes, because I can't change Spider-Man's fate just to appease his pain. What's more, if he can change the future so that the future can't be changed, but he can watch the two people he loves go to death again, He will live in pain for a longer time! And this pain is caused by his subjective will!"

"PhD……"

Donna was touched by the doctor's analysis and dared not think about it.

And Spider-Man, who was worshiping Uncle Ben in the cemetery, vaguely heard the doctor's words with his spider sense, and his heart was full of turmoil.

When he first heard that the doctor has a time machine that can take him back to the past, he had a strong urge to use the time machine to restore what he lost, but after listening to the doctor's analysis, he——

silence……

without saying a word...

Tears wet the eyes.

What the doctor said is not wrong, if he goes back to the past, no matter whether he prevents the tragedy or not, he is destined to leave eternal regrets!

Uncle Ben's fate has been changed, but the timeline has been distorted, and those who died due to his selfishness causing the wrong timeline will all become his sins!

Uncle Ben's fate has not been changed, and he who is forced to give up Uncle Ben again will also live in pain for a long time.

he……

Perhaps, pretending not to hear anything is the most correct choice at the moment.

Spider-Man thought in pain, knelt down on his knees, holding Uncle Ben's tombstone, tears streaming down silently.

"Uncle Ben...I'm sorry...I...I once again...I made the choice to leave you...Did I make the right choice? Or...or..."

【You made the right choice, kid. 】

Ben Parker's voice was in his ear.

Peter Parker thought the voice was an illusion of memories, raised his head, looked at the tombstone, and said with a choked voice: "Uncle Ben, no matter what time you are, you are the beacon that guides me forward. I will always remember your teachings, forever... …forever……"

He stood up, ready to leave, but when he turned around, he saw——

A skeleton in Ben Parker's suit!

The eternal flame of the soul is burning in the eye sockets!

"Who are you!"

Spider-Man instantly entered a state of alert, looking at the undead in front of him vigilantly: "Are you Faust's subordinate?!"

[Faust?Who is Faust? 】

The undead tilted his skull's head and looked at Spider-Man.

[I'm your Uncle Ben, I heard your voice and came to see you. 】

"But you are an undead now, and it is impossible for an undead to crawl out of the mud! Unless you are controlled by the power of the devil!"

Spider-Man looked anxiously and expectantly at the undead who claimed to be Ben Parker.

He knew that the undead must not be the real Uncle Ben, and even if it was really Uncle Ben, it would probably have been controlled by demons, but——

"Uncle Ben, I...I..."

[I don't blame you, you made the most correct decision. 】

Said so, the undead turned around, with the sound of "clicking" joints shaking.

The soil under its feet split quickly, turning into endlessness to devour the undead.

Seeing everything, Spider-Man thought that he must be indifferent, but when the undead was swallowed by the mud, his body betrayed his firm will, rushed forward, and hugged the undead who was about to be completely swallowed by the mud: "Uncle Ben! ...I miss you so much! I...I...I...I'm sorry for you!"

[But even if you do it all over again, you will give up on me, won't you? 】

The undead who called himself Ben Parker turned his head, and the fire of soul in his eyes looked at Spider-Man with compassion.

[This is a correct choice. People who have died should not come back. The mistakes that have already occurred cannot be forcibly corrected because you cannot accept them. 】

"But...but..."

Can't do it!

I can't do it!

Peter Parker said in grief.

At this moment, he is not the Spiderman guarding New York, he is just a young man who has been living in self-blame for a long time after killing his relatives due to mistakes.

His vision was blurred by the guilt, and his consciousness was only murmuring an apology.

……

Outside the cemetery—

After listening to the doctor's explanation, Donna looked at the direction of the cemetery with sadness and pain: "If fate can have the best of both worlds, then it would be so much—doctor!"

Donna exclaimed suddenly.

Pointing to the dark clouds above the cemetery, she shouted: "What is that!"

"what?"

The doctor looked up and stared intently at the dark clouds covering the entire cemetery, his expression became more and more serious: "Oops! Donna! We're in trouble!"

"What kind of trouble? Cybermen? Weeping angels? Daleks? Or... Zombies?!"

Donna announced the names of several races in one breath.

The doctor shook his head and said, "We are about to face even more troublesome troubles than these!"

"What kind of trouble?"

Donna looked at the doctor in bewilderment.

The doctor smiled wryly and said, "It's too late to explain, Donna! Hurry up! Run to Fulian Building as fast as you can!"

"why?"

"because--"

【We're back! 】

In the cemetery, one after another, the undead walked out wearing the clothes they had lived in.

Some undead have only bones left, and some undead bodies are still covered with skin.

But unlike zombie movies, they have come back from the dead without the urge to attack people. They staggered out of the cemetery, walked onto the street, and walked in the direction of their memory home.

Seeing this scene, Donna felt confused and disturbed, and asked the doctor: "What is the situation now? New York is surrounded by the undead? Or is it the collective resurrection of the dead?"

"No matter what the truth is, there must be a terrible conspiracy behind such a large-scale resurrection of the dead..." said the doctor, "Even if there is no conspiracy, letting the situation develop will lead to disaster. Not everyone can accept the return of their dead relatives." Come to the side, not every dead person who comes back from the dead is not aggressive towards the living."

"But I..."

"Hurry up and go to Fulian Building to find superheroes!"

The Doctor urges Donna, and tells Pol and Donna to act together.

"Doctor, you handed Bohr to me, what do you do?"

Donna asked uneasily, realizing that the doctor planned to stay.

The doctor smiled and said, "Matthew has seen me in the future, which means that I will definitely not die from this crisis!"

"but--"

"Stop saying but! Hurry up and go to Fulian Building!"

"What about you? You want to stay? Just because Matthew claimed to have seen you in the future?"

Donna grabbed the doctor's shoulders, trying to convince him.

The doctor smiled and said: "Peter is still in the cemetery, I have to go into the cemetery to find out the situation!"

"I and you—"

"That's it! We have a division of labor! I'll go to the cemetery to find Peter, and you report to Fulian Building!"

After speaking, the doctor pushed Donna away and ran towards the cemetery surrounded by undead and dark clouds.
