Humans were indeed very adaptable, and soon, the people of Earth got used to the 'moon' that appeared above their heads at night. NASA held a national name contest to name the satellite that suddenly appeared outside Earth.
After rejecting discordant names such as' Skynet ',' Terror ',' War ',' Destruction ',' Jinx ', and' Blood Moon ', the satellite was named' Crimson Moon '.
After the near-Earth orbit battle in Yellowstone, S.H.I.E.L.D. stopped all hostilities against Skynet. On one hand, Nick was trying his best to find relics left behind by the ancient civilization, deciphered the information on the Death Tablet, and tried to find a powerful force to deal with the Four Horsemen. On the other hand, the scientific geniuses within the Avengers were committed to developing a superweapon to fight against Skynet.
They all realized that humans were not strong enough to resist Chen Ang's current power, and rashly stirring up trouble would only lead to disaster.
After a period of relative peace in the world, an uninvited guest found Nick Fury.
"Dr. Strange!" Nick looked at a middle-aged man dressed as a street magician and was slightly surprised. "What made you come all the way here from the Himalayas? I remember you haven't left the mountain for three years! "
"Nick, the Sorcerer Supreme is an important force to maintain the balance. We also have a responsibility to protect this planet." Dr. Strange didn't care about the faint rejection and hostility in Nick's tone. He smiled gently and exuded a mysterious and peaceful aura. Even though he was dressed strangely, he didn't have a strong presence.
Nick's smile pulled at his single eye, which was very ugly. "Why did you come to me this time? Has a new evil force invaded Earth? Or have you finally made up your mind to deal with the 'Great', 'Unspeakable' 'Our Creator'? Or have you made up your mind to become his lackey? Have you come to challenge us? "
Nick spread his arms and glared at Dr. Strange with a cold smile.
"Although the Sorcerer Supreme used to be the emissary of the 'Apocalypse', our personalities are independent. We have our own standpoint and beliefs," Dr. Strange explained. I've always adhered to my principles, "Dr. Strange explained. He wasn't angered by Nick's aggressiveness. He merely repeated his position. "I will not fight against the Creator for you. His position may not be on your opposite side."
"What I'm saying is that you're obsessed with fighting against the Creator, but the relationship between humans and the Creator isn't as simple as fighting against each other. The Apocalypse had destroyed many civilizations, but it had also protected humanity on this planet. The Creator is the creator of mankind, and we still believe in him devoutly … "
"Shut up!" Nick couldn't take it anymore and roared.
He glared at Doctor Strange and squeezed out a sentence. "He's not God. He's just an alien who created us."
"In the first year of the Common Era, the 'Apocalypse' descended upon this world in the form of humans. He passed down the Dao of the Creator. He and his thirteen disciples told the world about the universe, soul, fate, and spirit in the Roman Empire. No matter how you deny it, the person you worship is the Apocalypse. "
Dr. Strange ignored Nick's pulsing veins and said the truth that no one dared to accept. "That person is the Lord, our Father."
"If you came here just to say this to me, do you think you can convince me to accept a crazy idea? An alien no nobler than anyone, not even a tramp on the street, is our Lord. And then from the soul to the body … "The violent anger in Nick's eyes was about to break his rationality. He lowered his voice and growled," That's a big mistake! "
Dr. Strange was silent.
He tapped his index finger and fell into thought. As the successor to the Sorcerer Supreme, his teacher, Ancient One, had told him something about the Apocalypse in his inheritance. The Sorcerer Supreme obtained an endless stream of powerful power from the great beings in the universe through certain channels. The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse were one of the beings that the Sorcerer Supreme borrowed the most power from.
He understood the purpose of the Apocalypse, so he tried to persuade humans not to fight against it, but to get rid of this power.
"The Sorcerer Supreme is a long-standing inheritance. Before me, the Sorcerer Supreme was not 'human'. "Dr. Strange said slowly.
Nick didn't understand why he changed the subject, but he keenly noticed the hidden message in Dr. Strange's words. He believed it had something to do with the birth of humans and the mysterious ancient 'humans'.
"Before 'humans', there were humans. Of course, they disparaged us as apes. We stole the name of humans, and they were the real 'humans' from another universe. At the time, we were just apes who accidentally gained wisdom. The Apocalypse brought us to this world and recreated us. "
"Those Otherworld humans, of course, looked down on intelligent beasts like us. For a long time, we were like pigs and dogs. The Sorcerer Supreme was the ancient wisdom of a great sage among the Otherworld humans. It has always been held by true Otherworld humans, Atlantis, Lemuria, China … "
"Your teacher, Ancient One?" Nick's eyes flickered.
"He was the last Otherworld human on Earth. He broke the barrier between Otherworld humans and humans and passed on the power of the Sorcerer Supreme to me." Dr. Strange's eyes went blank as he recalled bits and pieces of the past. He only froze for a few seconds before returning to reality. He looked at Nick and said sarcastically, "What do you think the Otherworld humans will do when they return?"
He leaned close to Nick's ear and whispered, "The first thing they'll do when they return is to kill all of us who stole their homes and falsely called ourselves humans!"
"But they've been destroyed by the Apocalypse!" Nick spread his hands. "We're the heirs of their will …"
"No!" Dr. Strange interrupted Nick. "You think they're destroyed, but they're not. The Apocalypse didn't destroy their civilization. They'll return to Earth sooner or later. I believe that day won't be far away. The ancient humans and their derivative civilizations. Do you still think the Apocalypse is just our enemy? "
Nick obviously couldn't accept this fact for a while, and Dr. Strange didn't say anything more to him.
"The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, the ancient humans, and the five gods of this universe, the relationship between them is complicated. If humans want to survive, they can't simply decide their own position. The Apocalypse wants to destroy humanity, perhaps! But the ancient humans don't mind killing us all. The Universe God Thanatos is constantly tormented by the anger of destroying Earth … "
"Wait! What the hell is this Thanatos? " As soon as Nick heard this, he fell into chaos. He never thought that the peaceful Earth would suddenly have so many dangerous factors appear one day. It was as if the entire universe was plotting against Earth. How could an inconspicuous planet in the Milky Way attract the attention of so many powerful beings?
"Thanatos is a powerful overlord in the universe. He secretly loves the Goddess of Death and 'Death' of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Although he has the upper hand now, Thanatos is worried that everything will change after the Apocalypse arrives." Dr. Strange explained.
"What does this have to do with Earth?" Nick couldn't believe it.
"Earth is the home of the ancient humans, the home planet of the otherworld humans, the birthplace of the Apocalypse, the Creator's backyard, and also the place that Thanatos wants to destroy at all times. He hates this place to the bone."
Nick felt like he had been shot while lying down.
Nick struggled to ask, having difficulty breathing.
"In other words, the Creator and the Apocalypse are the most benign of the three. They only use us for some experiments, while our predecessors want to kill us all off Earth and take back their home planet. The other god of the universe wants to destroy Earth! "
"The Apocalypse is the enemy of the ancient humans, the Thanatos's mortal enemy, and the dictator of humanity. The otherworld humans have a grudge against the Apocalypse, and the Thanatos are also mortal enemies because of Earth. They desire to return to Earth, so they are hostile to humanity. The Thanatos wants to destroy Earth, so he is everyone's mortal enemy. And the humans of Earth, the unfortunate humans of Earth, everyone wants to step on them?"
