Chapter 32 Phoenix Elegy - 6
Chapter 32 Phoenix Elegy - 6
Vega greatly admires Mary Jane's kindness and strength in preventing the virus from spreading to other universes. Noticing the abnormality of the child in Mary Jane's womb, he wanted to use the Tears of Remedios to help her, but Zero and Deadpool's actions and performance caused him to lose the opportunity to bring it up.
Seeing Zero kneeling before him, pleading desperately, Vega quickly bent down and reached out his hands to pull him up. Just then, a phoenix cry that resounded through the heavens and earth suddenly rang in everyone's ears!
Amid the cries of the survivors, Vega turned his head and saw that the ruby-like skeletons were burning with golden-red flames, which combined to vaguely form a giant phoenix.
The cries rang out again, and all the skeletons came together, while flesh began to grow on them.
"Heh heh, the one who can save you has appeared." Vega laughed. The world was about to be saved, and he wouldn't have to spend any money. How wonderful.
Vega put the watch on his left wrist and clumsily manipulated it to scan himself. Soon the watch gave him three world coordinates, two of which were unusable.
One coordinate that cannot be used is the coordinates of the dungeon world, and the other is the coordinates of this world. The only coordinate that can be used is the Marvel world where he lived for ten years.
Having locked onto the world's coordinates, Vega planned to greet Jean Grey after she was resurrected, and then leave immediately.
He actually wanted to stay and watch Phoenix save the world, but he wasn't from this world and was worried that Phoenix's first attempt to alter the timeline and causality might cause an accident that would affect him, so it was better not to stay and watch the show.
Phoenix's resurrection speed is very fast, and it will be over in less than a minute.
But at that moment, another unexpected event occurred. The corpse of Cyclops, which had clearly been fed energy by Vega, started moving and crawled towards Phoenix, who was about to be resurrected.
The flames vanished instantly, and the resurrection ended.
Vega's expression changed instantly. He appeared next to Cyclops, kicked him away, and then used a Holy Spear to prevent him from causing any more trouble.
Looking at the Phoenix Woman, covered in blood and barely any skin left, Vega sighed inwardly and advised, "Don't worry about it. It's just a living shell. It was attracted by the power of the Phoenix and that's why it moved. It's just an instinct."
Then the Punisher and the priest also spoke up to persuade them. Those survivors who learned from the two that Phoenix could save them also began to plead, and Zero even kowtowed to Phoenix repeatedly.
After a long while, the flames reignited, and to prevent any further accidents, Vega stood guard nearby.
The flames grew larger and the phoenix became clearer, but strangely, Phoenix's body was not being repaired.
Vega was very puzzled by this, and could only slowly move away from the ever-growing phoenix.
The cries of phoenixes echoed continuously, filled with reluctance and sorrow.
With a long, drawn-out cry, the crimson phoenix, now grown to cover the entire park and indescribably beautiful, suddenly burst forth with dazzling light. The light instantly illuminated the entire Earth. In a flash, the light disappeared, and the phoenix, now severely shrunken, rushed toward Vega, who was blinded and caught off guard, and instantly entered his body.
Viga was alarmed to realize the intrusion of the foreign force. He immediately mobilized the power of holy light and fire within his body to drive away the power of the phoenix.
But who knew that even the combined power of Holy Light and Flame was no match for the Phoenix Force, and was instead easily defeated and quickly devoured.
"It's over, I've been set up." Having used all his means, including the bronze armlet, the power gem, and the Tear of Remedios, he still couldn't get rid of the Phoenix Force. Vega could only smile bitterly as the Phoenix Force entered his body and turned him into a phoenix egg.
The Phoenix Force is on a level far superior to the Holy Light Force and the Flame Force gained from the potion. With it, Vega's stagnant strength will surely increase significantly, and his growth potential will be much greater.
Phoenix gave him the power of the phoenix, and he should have been happy, but he couldn't smile at all.
In the Marvel Universe, the saying "With great power comes great responsibility" is absolutely true.
The main theme of this world is the constant battle between superheroes and supervillains. This battle is eternal, and the stronger you are, the stronger your enemies will become.
Vega is not from the Marvel Cinematic Universe; he is an outsider, someone with a background who came to this world by accident.
Having been in this world for ten years, he had long since vaguely realized that as long as he didn't provoke trouble, no powerful supervillain would bother him.
This should have been a hidden perk for him, but now that perk is gone.
The Phoenix Force appears to have been given to him by Phoenix, but he feels things aren't that simple. Perhaps his arrival in this universe wasn't even an accident.
He was definitely set up. Even if it wasn't his own God who arranged his existence, He must have been aware of it and tacitly approved of it!
Sigh, he has no ambition, nor does he want to fight against darkness or save the world. He just wants to live a quiet life. Why can't we grant his wish?
Vega, whose body had completely dissolved into liquid and whose soul was being forged by flames, sighed and lost consciousness.
After a long time, the Punisher regained his sight and found that he was all alone, with only a two-meter-tall golden egg with a red glow on its surface on the ground not far in front of him.
The wreckage, ruins, and dilapidated buildings are gone. The square has been restored to its pre-destruction state, and the high-rise buildings surrounding the park are now lit up with colorful lights.
"Has the world returned to normal?" The Punisher clutched his head and collapsed to the ground. A long memory flashed through his mind, a world without a virus outbreak, and the gang he had attacked was dealing in genuine miniature nuclear bombs.
Moreover, this memory does not include the mutant Jean Grey (Phoenix Girl), as if she had never existed.
The newly emerging memories became clearer and clearer, and the two different memories intertwined, making it difficult for him to distinguish which memory was real.
After a while, the Punisher recovered. He went forward, picked up the giant egg that looked very big but was actually very light, put it into the trailer he had brought, and drove away quickly.
Looking at the city returning to normal, the Punisher smiled bitterly. He never expected that the way to resolve the virus crisis and restore the world to normal had always been by his side. He never expected that Jean would erase her own existence.
"Ha, I wonder who else remembers what happened besides me," the Punisher mused, glancing at Spider-Man as he darted between the buildings on his webs, before merging into the flow of traffic.
