“The Sacred Timeline is theoretically also a type of numbered Universe, except its existence is more valuable.”
“Every numbered Universe will experience the aforementioned situation, thereby deriving varying quantities of Universes.”
“Finally, as time goes on, the fission-derived Universes become more and more numerous.”
“In today’s multiverse, just the numbered Universes of the third integer dimension number in the hundreds of thousands, and each numbered Universe has anywhere from dozens to hundreds of derivative Universes.”
“Although Universes are perishing at every moment, new Universes are also being born.”
“This is still just one integer dimension; there are also non-integer dimensions, as well as Universes born in the earlier second integer dimension, where the number of Universes is even greater.”
“Today, there are a conservative estimate of hundreds of thousands of Universes suffering from the same demonized virus threat as your Universe!”
Ancient One clearly accepted Peter’s naming of this virus and simply called it the demonized virus as well.
“Hiss—” Peter gasped, accidentally comprehending the freezing breath skill, “Are these data accurate?”
Ancient One solemnly nodded: “This is news I obtained from other mes.”
???
Peter suddenly understood.
Holy shit, Ancient One had just gone to a meeting with the tens of millions or billions of Ancient Ones from other Worlds?
Can you even play it like this?
“Nowadays, the number of Universes across all dimensions of the entire multiverse is vanishing at an alarming rate, and this vanishing rate has become severely unbalanced. Perhaps in the near future, the number of Universes will drop to the primeval era,” Ancient One said.
“That’s not right. Theoretically speaking, the Universes invaded by the demonized virus only have all their life forms demonized, so how could the Universe perish along with them?” Peter spotted a blind spot.
Ancient One’s brows locked tightly: “This is also the strangest part to us, unless…”
“Unless what?”
“Unless this demonized virus was intentionally planted by someone. Once all life forms in the Universe are infected by the demonized virus, the mastermind will harvest all demonized life and even the Universe itself, and thus the Universe will directly perish!” Ancient One threw out a shocking conception.
Intentionally planted by someone!
Peter was startled.
Believe it or not, it really could be!
This possibility is not out of the question! New chapters come out on novelping.com first.
Thinking carefully, there truly exist some special and extremely powerful ethnic groups in the Marvel Universe.
Among the most famous are the Celestials.
The so-called Celestials are one of the earliest born life races in the Universe, existing in the form of an unknown non-material energy-consciousness life form.
Each one possesses an extremely massive ecology, and its energy composition remains unknown and incomprehensible to this day (actually, Marvel probably purposely left it unexplained just to raise their pretentiousness. After all, maintaining mystery gives you that aura.)
Celestials generally wear some special armor when acting, so their identities are typically identified by the appearance of their armor.
What can be confirmed is that the energy of every single Celestial is at least at the All-Father level similar to the King of Gods Odin.
The powerful ones are definitely at the multiverse level.
And they aren’t those fraudulent ones who rely on rules to fight and get plot-killed the moment their countering rules are found, but true multiverse-level entities where rules and personal strength coexist.
He remembered that in some accounts, the entire Universe is the dream of a Celestial.
While in some settings, it is said that the Celestials are actually just the dream of Eternity, one of the five creation Gods.
Setting these settings aside.
At the very least, the Celestials do exist and certainly pose a certain threat.
He had watched Guardians of the Galaxy, and a Celestial [The Searcher] appeared in The Collector’s projection, wielding a weapon inlaid with the power stone and destroying a Planet with a single strike.
(A quick complaint: why would The Searcher destroy a Planet? Isn’t that usually The Exterminator’s job? Is this internal competition rolling into everything too?)
Also, in the super huge box-office bomb Eternals, it was said that a Celestial was sleeping inside the Blue Planet, and the Eternal staged quite a grand drama to prevent the Celestial from being born.
However, this plot should have happened in some parallel Universe, because if it were really like in the movie where a Celestial reached out such a huge hand and caused the earth to shake and mountains to shatter, superheroes like the Avengers and Strange couldn’t possibly not show up at all.
Even if this is an exclusive movie for the Eternal, this plot bug is simply too big.
It can only be attributed to a parallel Universe.
The number of Celestials remains a mystery to this day, and it is said that the known number within the main Universe alone is close to a hundred. You are reading on novelping.com, the official source.
And this race has another characteristic: this group of long-living fellows loves doing experiments the most.
Mutants, Inhumans, Eternals—all of them are their experimental subjects.
If these guys secretly released the demonized virus across many parallel Universes for some experiments, it would indeed fit their style of conduct.
Aside from the Celestials, another suspected target is the Beyonders.
When they first appeared, the Beyonders claimed to be the number one race in the Marvel Universe, independent and transcendent of the Marvel Universe, with authority second only to OAA, even surpassing the Living Tribunal and the five major deities.
The strongest among them, the Ivory Kings, even slaughtered the Celestials, Eternity, the Living Tribunal, and others.
The top-tier multiverse-level treasure capable of destroying and rebooting the Universe, the [Cosmic Cube], is the creation of the Beyonders.
In the major event Secret Wars, the Beyonders slaughtered the entire omniverse, and in the end, God Emperor Doom played a trick, blowing up the Beyonders with massive amounts of Molecule Men, and then used the skin of the Living Tribunal as a spaceship to carve out Battleworld with the survivors.
But later on, it was said due to an editor civil war, the aura of the Beyonders was lowered again, stating that the Beyonders were actually created by a Celestial PLUS version of colorful Celestials, whose responsibility was to guard the outer Universe, equivalent to a “border defense force”.
While ordinary Celestials supervise the inner Universe.
Perhaps the long years of “border garrisoning” made the Beyonders weary, and they wanted to come to the material Universe to relax, or perhaps they wanted to take the opportunity to kill their creators, which led to the operation of blowing up the Universe.
From this perspective, they might also have the motive to poison.
However, if the mastermind behind this matter is truly the Celestials or the Beyonders, then things really won’t be easy to handle.
Although Peter is currently Superman Spider-Man, his strength is close to the single Universe level.
But neither of these two is an easy person to deal with.
However, he is not afraid.
After all, his upper limit is not low either.
Making a comprehensive comparison, he felt that his current strength should far exceed the Man of Steel movie version of Superman, and should have reached the level of the classic movie Superman, which is the “Bronze Age Superman”.
As long as he takes it a step further and manages to become the “Silver Age Superman”, he will possess the strength to truly arm-wrestle with these guys.
If he can become Superman Prime One Million or even Thought Robot Superman, solving the current trouble would just be a matter of a single thought.
“First investigate, then find allies, and incidentally improve my strength.”
