[Comprehensive] The painting style of time travel is wrong

Although the weather is fine today, there are far fewer people in the square not far from New York's Central Park than usual, and even the homeless people who could be seen from time to time are almost extinct now - the current reconstruction work in New York A good solution to New York's unemployment rate.

Tang Xuening, on the other hand, was wearing a windbreaker with a stand-up collar and sunglasses, sitting on a bench in a lazy posture and watching the live event broadcast on the giant screen at the intersection.

After seeing Colonel Zemo's successful speech, the girl took a long breath and turned her gaze to the old man sitting beside her who was feeding the pigeons in the square.

"Mr. Mephisto, as a powerful devil who came to hell, is it really okay for you to appear in the world so swaggeringly in broad daylight?"

the girl asked cautiously.

"Thank you for your concern, but I think you need to be more careful than me, Miss Tang."

Mephisto asked back with a kind smile:

"Let's not say that you are hung in the most conspicuous position of every police station, and there is a $1000 million reward on the black market for you.

It's been a long time since I heard that Master Gu Yi was so angry. I'm curious how you did it? "

"No matter how good the plan is, there are bound to be accidents!"

Speaking of this, the girl felt a little headache. In the first half of the Battle of New York, everything was under control and it was a model...

Well, let’s not talk about the second half, anyway, the girl heard that the Americans had sent “scavengers” to kill her, which almost destroyed New York and put the entire United States in a state of extreme danger. / Dismissed national spies, unqualified servants who came to carry out the plot to destroy the United States.

"Who would have thought that the other party would have that level of power, so they played off."

"Well, indeed, I never thought that someone would play this trick on the surface of a planet. You people on Earth are so crazy."

Mephisto asked after expressing his emotion.

"and then?"

"Can you not mention this?"

The girl was a little speechless and looked at the devil king who seemed to be in a state of gossip.

"What do you think?"

"Well, for the sake of the lives of almost 500 million citizens in New York, Master Ancient One had to violate her principles again..."

Yes, Master Ancient One used the power of the Eye of Agamotto (Note 1) to partially reverse time, instantly reversing the "results" of casualties and collateral damage caused by the Earth Explosion Star to the terrifying power "before it happened"!

This absolutely invincible power shocked all the people who watched New York, so someone pretended to escape the attempt of "Can the US special processing forces 'persuade' themselves from the show".

——At least it was before the ancient one said angrily that he would "imprison someone for 100 years and let her reflect slowly".

"I didn't cause those casualties! Why do I have to reflect on it!"

"Do you need me to save you a place in hell?"

The old man kindly extended a helping(!?) hand to the desperate girl...

"My lord, stop joking. You have never been noticed by the heavens or the mages when you walk on the ground. You must have some way to avoid detection-then it is absolutely safest to be around you."

But for this kind of "aid" girl, she said how far she can go.

"Okay, cunning little mortal girl, let's talk about that 'big business' you mentioned."

The old man asked curiously, as a devil who always pays attention to the world, it is full of expectations for the girl in front of him who can always bring surprises.

"Of course, but I want to confirm one thing."

The girl looked at the old man curiously and asked:

"What does the soul mean to you hell and heaven?"

"If the second law of thermodynamics of your human beings is generally applicable in the universe, what do you think our heaven and hell rely on to maintain existence? (Note 2)"

Mephisto didn't answer directly, but his words were enough for the girl to understand the terrifying truth behind it.

"Then why haven't you made your existence known to the people?"

the girl asked.

"You must know that in this era, many people are willing to give everything in order to satisfy their worldly desires."

"If you say something like this, it shows that Miss Tang, you don't know enough about this world."

The old man smiled very kindly, and drew a very subtle curve with his fingers in front of him. The girl seemed to see countless smoky phantoms flashing past (Note 3).

"It's far more than our hell or heaven watching humans, and it's far more than mages and those Asgardians maintaining the natural development of humans in this world."

"Then what if it's something that humans have discovered and actively contacted?"

The girl continued to ask.

"Then I don't think we can't be passively engaged in limited. limited cooperation with certain humans and certain human forces."

Having said this, the old man obviously has a general understanding of what the girl said about "big business".

"But aren't they afraid of my cheating? I am an evil and terrifying devil. According to your records, the mortals and even the kings who have made deals with us throughout the ages have not ended well."

"Because compared to the people in heaven, you are at least willing to communicate and trade with us."

The girl tore off the brooch in front of the old man, and showed him the bugging device inside.

"And now that they... have obtained the help of the mages through the brain network, they also have the confidence to some extent not to be afraid of your deceit."

"Funny girl."

The old man smiled.

"So can you tell me what you're getting in this deal?"

"A more stable and healthy society - the new era I lead will empower all, but may also soon unleash the beasts of tyranny and lust within them.

And when you are no longer as myths and legends, just your existence will give those people constraints, when people need to think about their future in the 'other world', they will not indulge their hearts, let me The expected future is destroyed before dawn. "

After speaking, the girl stood up and moved her body.

"Then Mr. Mephisto, please allow me to leave first.

After all, Mr. Chen and you will have a lot to discuss about 'exporting sinners' souls to purchase magic materials' and the future relationship between the two parties. I won't bother you if you don't know anything about these. "

"My promise is always valid, and the gates of hell are always open to you."

"Let's talk about when I can't get along at all~"

………………

When the girl walked out of the square, a middle-aged man in a neat suit who looked like a salesman "just happened" to open the car door and get out of the car, passing her by.

The girl opened the car from him unceremoniously, and the girl who got into the car immediately found that the person sitting next to her was still the middle-aged man she had dealt with last time.

"Miss Tang played really hard this time."

The middle-aged man said with a smile.

"What? Do you want to learn from the Americans and prepare to tie me up and put me in a gift box as a gift for Master Gu Yi?"

Regarding his teasing, the girl asked back angrily.

"Although the power of reversing time cannot be overestimated, we are not shameless enough to betray our friends just for the goodwill of Master Ancient One."

But after finishing speaking, the middle-aged man sighed and asked:

"However, Ms. Tang, do you know that the United States has begun to search its domestic brain network users one by one to find 'reserve' mages, and has several prestigious schools started to set up special magic laboratories?"

"I remember that China has announced that 'for the children's future', magic will be included as a new compulsory course in textbooks at all levels from elementary school to university?"

But when it comes to this, the girl knows that she should also show some "sincerity".

"Of course, for the sake of the motherland, I should take less detours, and for the children to get better education, I think I should also do something for the motherland.

——I got some magic materials from Loki. Although his magic system is somewhat different from that of Ancient One, it can also be used as a reference when the education department compiles textbooks. "

"It's great that Miss Tang can understand righteousness so well."

Seeing that someone was so knowledgeable, the middle-aged man also smiled.

"We were behind in technology back then, and you and I both know the price we paid for it, but now the whole world is on the same starting line in the field of magic, and we must never fall behind again!"

After speaking, he began to sigh again:

"However, the project I worked with Miss Tang last time did not go well.

We now have seven experts in various fields who have to calm down in the confinement room for a while, the knowledge they obtained completely violates the fundamentals of our world, but it seems to be feasible, it is really embarrassing..."

"The Book of Darkness shouldn't be regarded as an 'encyclopedia of ancient super civilization technology', but should be regarded as a 'portable devil's contract'.

So you should not let a scientist who regards 'pursuing truth' as ​​his lifelong wish read that book, but let a saint who wants world peace read that book, I am curious what he can see in the book. "

After the girl finished speaking, she found that the other party was looking straight at her, so she pursed her lips and continued:

"Of course, I think a better way to use it is to ask it for things that will not be misinterpreted, very specific and can be understood by us, and find its limit a little bit..."

"That's what we're doing, our current progress is the design drawing of the space carrier..."

Obviously, a country can also think of a solution that a girl can think of.

"...Is it fun to play with me?"

The girl looked at him with a displeased expression.

"Please don't misunderstand our intentions, just according to the current test progress, we should try to obtain the design drawing of the Rainbow Bridge from that book in the near future, but at present we still lack something that can be used as a reference."

The middle-aged man waved his hand and explained:

"So we hope to have a 'single' talk with Lord God King who has gone back to handle government affairs now. Miss Tang, can you help us with this little favor?"

"I can't guarantee success, but I will try my best."

After the girl finished speaking, she suddenly changed the topic:

"But if it works out, I need a little labor fee."

"Then what price is Miss Tang going to offer?"

The middle-aged man was obviously relieved.

When it comes to national strategy, the problem that money can solve has never been a problem.

"I want the information on 'Qi' (Note 4)."

The girl spoke word by word.

"I will report Miss Tang's request to the relevant department, and I believe I can get a reply soon."

The middle-aged man showed a slightly formulaic smile towards the girl. Obviously, although this request exceeded his authority, it did not touch the bottom line called "absolutely impossible".

But after a pause, he went on to say:

"However, even if Miss Tang's request is approved, it may take a while to wait patiently.

——Because the country is starting to solve those historical problems that have plagued our country for a long time. "

The author has something to say: Note 1: A strange object capable of manipulating time in the hands of the ancient master is essentially the time gem among the infinite gems.

Note 2: Let’s count it as the second setting of “some degree”.The setting in the comics is that God is a high-dimensional existence who likes to meddle in other people's affairs. He may be interested in being friendly to humans, but it still cannot explain why devils and angels are always competing for souls.Of course, as far as I know, the second law of thermodynamics in the Marvel universe is really not a universally applicable theorem in the universe, because there are too many superpowers and mutants who can break it, but the Ghost Knight in "SHIELD" believes that energy cannot Produced "out of thin air", the two settings contradict each other, so I played it freely.

Note 3: In the background of the Marvel world, there are many "futures" who were born on the earth and reached the apex of the universe. From time to time, they will look at the earth in reverse through time.

Note 4: I always feel that Americans have misunderstood qi. After reading the explanation of qi in "Iron Fist", I feel that they regard qi as the original force.
