Chapter 171 Rejecting Moral Kidnapping
However, this pressure came and went quickly.
Before anyone could react, the pressure quickly dissipated.
"Your Majesty, please calm down. Mordo has never seen your power. His crime does not deserve death."
"thump……"
Strange knelt in front of Lin Feng and pleaded for Mordo.
The pressure was too terrifying. Even though it was not directed at Strange directly, he knew that the gods could not be insulted.
Lin Feng was indeed really angry just now, and his aura was completely revealed.
He withdrew his pressure and looked at Mordo, who was lying on the ground with his eyes wide open and motionless.
"This is the true power of the Time Stone."
The Demon King held the Time Stone in his hand and pointed forward.
A green circular rune with a diameter of tens of meters appeared around them, leaving Mordo and Strange stunned.
They had never seen such a quantity and complexity of runes around Master Ancient One.
A clock slowly emerged above the rune, displaying the current time.
"change!"
Follow your words.
The hour hand, minute hand and second hand rotate rapidly.
All the buildings, countless fragments, and lost lives are gradually returning to their original state.
Lin Feng retracted his fingers and threw the gem in his hand to Strange like a lollipop.
"It is not omnipotent. Half of the lives lost cannot be restored. Long-term recovery is also limited. This also explains why the Time Stone will become ineffective after Dormammu's complete advent."
Lin Feng told Strange these things.
Strange carefully took the gem and nodded respectfully.
"Strange! You bastard, how dare you stop Lord Dormammu's gift to all mankind!"
A sudden voice broke the silence.
The voice was hoarse, and Strange seemed to be facing his mortal enemy.
The person who came was none other than Kaecilius, who had just destroyed the temple and witnessed Dormammu's defeat.
He watched Dormammu dissipate in the air in disbelief.
He knew very well that only the Time Stone could stop Dormammu.
He searched around and finally locked onto Strange, who had just taken the gem.
Strange frowned and met Casillas' gaze:
"Kaecilius, it's time to mend your ways. Dormammu has deceived you."
"Shut up, you scum of humanity."
Casillas held a transparent sharp blade in his hand and slashed forward suddenly.
"Certainly!"
Lin Feng had never seen such an arrogant and domineering person.
He had no sympathy for such betrayers.
"You are the one who truly betrayed humanity."
"Do you want all human beings to become like you?"
"I will now let you experience what it feels like to be completely eroded by the power of darkness!"
Lin Feng waved his hand and injected all the remaining power of Dormammu in the city into Casillas' body.
Casillas' body was rapidly eroded by darkness starting from his eye sockets, and his flesh and blood shrank rapidly.
In a flash, Casillas turned into a mummy.
"This is what happens when you join Dormammu."
Lin Feng said coldly:
"The body will become a puppet, and the consciousness will be annihilated, becoming one of Dormammu's nutrients."
"How pathetic! Do you really think eternal life comes without a price?"
Strange gasped in astonishment:
"Oh my god!"
"It seems that the teacher was indeed wrong. She betrayed our beliefs."
Mordo muttered to himself.
"The Ancient One is not wrong."
Lin Feng displayed the dark power in front of Modu. Modu looked at the dark power with an obsession on his face.
“No one can resist the temptation of power.”
Lin Feng showed contempt on his face.
"Dormammu's power can prolong life and keep the body indestructible, but one must resist temptation to avoid being completely eroded."
He mocked:
"Your teacher did it. She could have died calmly. She was not afraid of death and was eager to follow nature."
"Yet she has a heavy responsibility to protect the world from Dormammu."
"If you want to blame someone, blame it on you disciples for not living up to your expectations. None of you has the character and strength to meet the standards."
"She waited for hundreds of years before finding a suitable successor."
After being scolded by Lin Feng, Modu's eyes became confused. He lowered his head and remained silent, with tears welling up in his eyes again.
“Ah…hiss…hiss…”
Casillas, who was immobilized, suddenly spoke.
“Death is not the end. Sometimes eternal life is also a torment.”
"I, the Emperor, will help you get rid of all this."
The power of Yang flowed into Casillas' body along with Lin Feng's thoughts.
Casillas' body turned into ashes bit by bit, but there was a smile on his face.
"Your Majesty the Demon King, why can the power of darkness make our bodies indestructible?"
As a doctor, Strange witnessed the power displayed by the Demon King and felt that this god who had survived from ancient times might be able to answer his questions.
"As a doctor, you should be smarter than fools like Morduna."
Lin Feng did not forget to belittle Mo Du, and then explained:
"High-level energy that can be accepted by the human body can improve human physical fitness, increase the number of cell divisions, and strengthen cell strength."
“But it is difficult for humans to fully adapt to high-level energy. This may become a means for some gods to control humans.”
"I understand."
Strange nodded.
"Is the dark power an evil existence? The teacher accepted the dark power, but you told me that the teacher did the right thing."
"I can't accept it."
Mordo's faith of many years was destroyed by his teacher, who compromised with the darkness in order to survive.
He couldn't accept Lin Feng's words.
"Mordo, power itself has no distinction between dark and light."
"Only the standpoints between intelligent life give these definitions."
"In order to protect the world, the teacher has been absorbing the power of darkness to maintain her life. She is the light."
"She always wanted to let nature take its course. She believed in nature and taught us, but the responsibilities she shouldered prevented her from doing so."
Strange stared at Mordo and continued, "That's not a contradiction."
Modu was thoughtful.
Lin Feng said a few words to Strange to express his approval, then turned around and prepared to leave.
"Your Majesty the Demon King, please stay."
Strange shouted.
"explain."
Lin Feng did not look back.
"Where should I go to find you?"
Strange still has problems, and now only the Demon King can make him feel at ease.
"Professor Lin Feng."
Lin Feng's figure gradually moved away and finally disappeared from sight.
"Your Majesty the Demon King..."
Before Strange could finish his words, he found that Lin Feng had left.
"Professor Lin Feng, the scholar who expounded on the history of gods at the press conference." Strange whispered to himself.
"Modu, since the temple has been destroyed, I have a new idea." A gleam of light flashed in his eyes, and then he said, "I plan to go to the city where Lin Feng is and build a brand new temple."
Mordo stood up and stared at Strange, "Do you want to use the power of the Chinese gods to protect the temple?" He guessed Strange's intention.
Strange smiled confidently, "Although it's unlikely, Dormammu will definitely be more restrained in that place."
……
At the same time, in the dark dimension, Dormammu was having a secret conversation with a woman. Although Dormammu was extremely powerful, he did not dare to neglect this woman.
The woman has long hair, wears tight clothes, and has a hint of mockery on her face. She has been imprisoned in the dark dimension for many years, but Dormammu can do nothing to her.
This time, Dormammu was scared away by Lin Feng and became afraid of his own power, so he thought of the woman trapped in the dark dimension.
"Goddess of Death, I can help you escape from here." Dormammu's huge face appeared outside the prison.
Hela raised the corner of her mouth slightly, and glanced at Dormammu while lying on the throne. "Ugly beast, I will be able to break free from this cage soon. What are your intentions?"
"I can give you powerful power and help you regain your freedom immediately." Dormammu said, and countless energy fragments poured into Hela's body.
As the power poured in, Hela's eyes gradually became sharper. The black cage was covered with cracks, and finally exploded with a "bang".
Odin woke up from his throne, "She escaped!"
……
“What do you want in return, ugly beast?” Hela asked sarcastically, “You have given me such powerful power, so you must have some ulterior motive.”
Hela knows very well that there is no free lunch in the world. She has recovered to her peak state, and there must be some purpose of Dormammu behind this.
"Hela, new gods have risen, and you Asgardians will no longer be the rulers of the Nine Realms." Dormammu smiled, "After you leave, I hope you can create more chaos in the world. Only in this way can I devour more worlds."
"Dormammu, you're joking. Odin will never allow Asgard's rule to be threatened in any way." Hela didn't believe what Dormammu said at all.
"But he has aged, and although he is strong, his stamina is not what it used to be."
After Dormammu finished speaking, he left quietly, leaving only a warning: "Be careful of the gods of China."
【The role-playing task is completed, and the evaluation is SS. 】
……
Lin Feng checked the points in his hand, "I have accumulated more than 13 million points now, but I still need to work harder."
He longed to exchange for Master Tongtian's B-level ability, but currently no one was challenging him and the growth of points had stagnated.
Suddenly the phone rang. Lin Feng picked up the call and found out it was an official call from China.
"Professor Lin Feng, I have two pieces of news to tell you." A gentle female voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Please speak." Lin Feng responded after sitting down.
"There is good news and bad news." The female voice continued, "The good news is that a private media giant in the United States invites you to the United States to discuss topics related to the Chinese gods."
"The bad news is that the Japanese authorities have accused you of deliberately delaying notification to the Chinese gods, which resulted in nearly one million casualties and huge economic losses in their capital."
Lin Feng was a little surprised to hear these two pieces of news.
Japan's reaction seemed too reckless. Everything he did was out of kindness, and no one could blame him even if they stayed out of it.
"I accept the invitation from the United States. As for Japan, please tell them that I express my condolences for their disaster."
Lin Feng's voice was a little cold. "But if something like this happens again in Japan, I will refuse to provide any help."
The person on the other end of the phone seemed to think that this was inappropriate and tried to dissuade him, but Lin Feng firmly hung up the phone.
He decided to be tougher and not be held hostage by morality.
"Mr. Prime Minister, the Chinese official announced that Professor Lin Feng will no longer provide assistance." A middle-aged official reported to Rokuro Koizumi.
"This is not surprising. After all, we cannot offend the United States." Koizumi Rokuro said thoughtfully, "Do you have anything else to report?"
"Yes, Mr. Prime Minister. A media tycoon in the United States invited Lin Feng to hold a press conference in the United States." The official replied, "It is said that Lin Feng plans to introduce the new god, the demon emperor Jun, at the press conference."
"I understand. The United States is no longer reliable. We need to reassess the situation." Koizumi Rokuro tapped the desk lightly. "You can leave now."
The official left quickly, and a few minutes later, an elegant lady walked in.
"Mr. Prime Minister, everything is ready." The lady's clear voice broke the silence.
"Hashimoto Kanzuki, you will serve as a civilian representative and hand over the records of our contact with the United States to China. Remember, you will be visiting as a Chinese student." Koizumi Rokuro instructed, "Please."
He didn't want Japan to be controlled by any country, so he had to be careful in this complicated situation.
At the same time, discussions about the demon emperor Di Jun in Japan are becoming more and more intense.
"Some experts pointed out that the Demon Emperor Di Jun may have deep historical roots in Japan. Some even believe that our national flag contains elements of the Demon Emperor Di Jun." News reports continue to hype this topic.
In addition to the official accusations against Lin Feng, Japan seems to be showing goodwill to China.
In Asgard, Odin, the king of gods, woke up from his deep sleep with a look of fatigue on his face.
"Heimdall, recall Thor and Loki, I don't have much time," he ordered.
Loki was at Lin Feng's home at this time, reading "The Secret History of the Monkey King" written by Lin Feng.
Heimdall's voice sounded in his ears: "Loki, the King of the Gods summons you back to Asgard. Bring Thor with you. He is in a bar one kilometer away."
Loki asks if their mother misses them, but Heimdall doesn't answer.
In the bar, Thor tried to strike up a conversation with an Asian girl in broken Chinese, but the girl shrugged off his words.
"Now everyone knows that only China has gods." The girl said contemptuously and turned away.
Thor looked frustrated, and Loki couldn't help shaking his head when he saw this. He was worried about Thor's intelligence.
The two were summoned back to Asgard by Heimdall and faced Odin, the king of the gods, in the hall.
"I am dying." Odin said calmly, "I summoned you back so that one of you can inherit my throne."
Thor and Loki are both shocked, but Loki unexpectedly gives up the throne.
"The throne is not what I want." Loki said sincerely and stood aside.
This surprised Odin greatly, for Loki had always desired power.
In the end, Odin announced Thor as the crown prince and summoned Loki alone to ask the reason.
Loki expresses his quest for greater power and his powerlessness in wisdom.
At this time, Heimdall's voice came again: "King of the Gods, someone invaded Asgard..."
