Sentinel of American Comics

The annihilation and fragmentation at the molecular level caused Sean to enter a strange state, as if everything had stopped, and his eyes were suddenly swallowed up by darkness, and then white lights lit up again, overwhelming the sky like a wave.

"This is……"

Sean's consciousness was lost in thought. Even if Molecule Man Owen Reese plucked the chords of matter and tore apart the stable molecular structure of the body, he would not be defeated so easily with the Infinity Gauntlet.

But at the moment when his body collapsed, Sean was dragged directly into this white space by an invisible pulling force.

He lost all awareness of the outside world, as if he had returned to the larvae of his embryo. Apart from a weak consciousness, everything ceased to exist.

He couldn't feel his body, and the movement instructions sent from his brain disappeared without a trace, without any feedback.

Even so, Sean did not panic and remained basically calm.

When you are in this white space with no edges, you can't feel anything. It seems that there is no body, no breathing, no air around, no temperature... The only thing you have is consciousness, and you can still think.

Sean was like a lonely soul, floating in the endless white light. After an unknown amount of time, the warm sea of ​​light rippled and gradually dispersed.

Color began to appear around him, and sounds suddenly came in, like a rendered painting, and Sean felt his body again.

But no longer having superhuman strength, Sean's consciousness returned to the body of the high school student. He looked around. This was Central Park in Manhattan.

He was sitting on a bench, with a bunch of white pigeons pecking in front of him. There were lush shrubs and low trees in the distance, and cheerful laughter could be heard from time to time.

"The story always starts like this... You're sitting on a chair in the park, and then a stranger starts telling you about the past."

A slightly older voice sounded next to him.

Sean turned his head and saw an old man with white hair and sunglasses.

The other person was wearing a brown coat and was very energetic. He was breaking bread in his hand, scattering it into crumbs and feeding it to the flying pigeons.

"Stan Lee..."

A cry of surprise came from Sean's mouth.

"Just meet in the way you are more accustomed to."

The old man chuckled, as if he knew the meaning behind the name.

This made Sean have more associations. He had a vague guess in his heart, but he was not sure.

The omniscient and omnipotent being of that multiverse, the true master of the Living Tribunal, transcends and is above all else, and is on par with the God of another multiverse, both unimaginably supreme beings.

"Okay, now comes the Q\u0026A session."

The old man grinned and said with a hearty smile: "Yes, I brought you to this universe, and I generously gave you a bottle of golden potion."

"I erased the original Sentinel in order to create a multiverse watcher with more potential, and you did not disappoint me in this regard, Sean."

The old man was feeding the pigeons by himself, and when he saw Sean's solemn expression, he couldn't help but smile.

The two of them sat on a bench in Central Park, not feeling the collapse and decline of the multiverse at all.

"Is it because of transcending the gods?"

Sean asked speculatively.

The old man nodded and threw a handful of crumbs into his hand.

"The birth of Molecule Man Owen-Reese was the result of the plan of the Transcendent Gods. They are extraterrestrial beings who once massacred the Celestials and sent a young body, the Transcendent, to this universe. They used it as a breeding ground to create a huge... confusion."

"So I found a new outsider, ready to cut out this unstable factor and deal with subsequent crises."

"It seems Thanos did better than me. He killed all the Transcendent Gods and stopped their experiment to destroy the multiverse."

Sean chuckled. He couldn't guess whether the old man in front of him was a conceptual body that transcended existence and non-existence and was a physical body after dimensionality reduction; or whether he was the supreme incarnation of the multiverse.

Regardless of the outcome, it is undeniable that the so-called transcendent gods who killed the five creation gods and the Tribunal of Life were as insignificant as a speck of dust in the eyes of this old man wearing sunglasses.

"Everything Thanos did was inconsistent with my original purpose."

The old man's voice was calm, and Manhattan's Central Park turned into light and shadow, suddenly disappearing.

In the blink of an eye, they were standing among the collapsing stars. This was not the destruction of planets, but the demise of countless parallel universes.

"The Transcendent Gods come from outside the territory, so the Life Tribunal and the five gods will not be their opponents. I knew this as early as when the Transcendents came on the scene."

"I erased the past timeline and asked Owen Reese to destroy the external form of the Transcendents, but the Transcendent Gods still exist. As observers, they have been collecting more and more since the birth of this multiverse. The data."

"Molecular Man was born because he transcended the Gods, so Thanos asked Owen Reese to continuously copy himself, kill himself, and throw the corpses of countless 'Molecular Man' as bombs into the universe where the Gods transcended."

Sean looked down at the stars below him, watching Thanos and Molecule Man Owen Reese from a god's perspective.

After killing the Transcendent Gods, Thanos stole their power and is gathering the remaining fragments of the multiverse to create a brand new universe, as he said.

"Beyond the gods is not a threat. The greater crisis is still to come. Thanos knows nothing about it. He is intoxicated in the dream of his creator."

The old man waved his arms, and the stars under his feet suddenly dimmed, replaced by brilliant shining rivers of stars, deep nebulae like clouds and fog slowly rotating, and behind them was a majestic giant wall.

That is the boundary of the universe beyond the imagination of life. The magnificent wall stands quietly, as if it is the end of the origin of all things. It is full of gray-white sculptures, either struggling or twisted. No matter what level of the strongest person they were before, Assimilated into a part of the wall, small and humble.

"That's the real crisis."

The old man pointed at the huge wall, his voice a little more solemn.

"Two completely different yet extremely similar multiverses, they will begin to approach each other at some point, and one day they will collide..."

Sean was speechless. He stared at the huge wall with no edges visible, and a strange feeling arose in his heart.

There seemed to be shadowy and illusory figures standing behind the wall. They were all important figures in another multiverse, and Sean knew many of them.

The son of Krypton with a red cloak, the silent Batman, Wonder Woman holding a shield in one hand and a sword in the other, the Flash lingering with subtle arcs of electricity...

The giants of the Justice League have emerged one after another. They live in the multiverse behind the giant wall, and above this group of superheroes, there are also the Seven Lantern Corps and the mixed black and white infection.

Sean squinted his eyes and seemed to see more clearly. More figures appeared one after another, including the Anti-Monitor sitting on the Mobius Chair, and the naked blue figure.

"The game has just begun, Sean. You are the watchman of this multiverse, a veritable sentinel."

The old man chuckled.

"What should I do next? Kill Thanos and Molecule Man, and reorganize the broken multiverse? Are you deliberately letting go beyond the gods to destroy all of this, just to erase the end and restart a new era?"

Sean digested all this. He looked at the huge wall that was out of reach with deep eyes.

Until now, I am qualified to participate in this multiverse battle game.

"Do what you think is right. In this game, I and another supreme being are referees at best. The real operator is you and the chosen one from another multiverse."

The old man's face was calm, and no one could see clearly the true emotions behind those sunglasses.

"With the Infinity Gauntlet, I can't deal with Thanos and Molecule Man who steal the power beyond the gods."

Sean smiled honestly.

The complete Sentinel is at the single-universe level at best. With the Infinity Gauntlet, it barely reaches the multi-universe level and can talk head-on with the five gods.

But Thanos, who got the new plug-in, and Molecule Man, who is a product of the Transcendent Gods, cannot be solved by a multiverse level.

"I gave you something a long time ago, you just didn't notice it."

The old man looked at Sean and said meaningfully.

Sean seemed to suddenly wake up, the hazy white light in his mind gradually shrank and condensed, and the tiny light spots were filled with surging power that could destroy the world.

That is the heart of the universe!

The supreme creation beyond the Infinity Gauntlet!

Sean took a deep breath and harnessed this unprecedented supreme power with an extremely strong spirit.

Now in his eyes, the multiverse is as small as dust and can be destroyed with just a raise of his hand.

Looking at the majestic wall, a smile appeared on Sean's face.

We will meet sooner or later, he thought silently in his heart.

…………

In the center of the multiverse, deep in the slowly rotating nebula, stands a majestic building.

In the spacious and luxurious bedroom, a snow-white arm lifted the thin quilt, and the red hair was like a flame, half covering the beautiful spring light.

Qin, who had fully integrated the power of the Phoenix, gently hugged her lover who was sitting quietly in front of a chessboard. There was a slight trace of emotion in her eyebrows, and her crimson face was full of curiosity.

"Who is this?"

She asked, pointing to a lifelike carved chess piece, wrapping one hand around Sean's neck and kissing her cheek.

"Clark Kent, Kal-El, son of Krypton, one of the leaders of the Justice League..."

Sean called out a series of names, gently picked up the red cloaked chess piece, moved forward two squares, and placed it at the feet of a ferocious beast.

The giant beast chess piece covered with ferocious bone spurs had the words "Day of Destruction" branded on its base.

There are more chess pieces placed around it, including Batman standing on the "Wise Man" grid, Wonder Woman placed on the "Paradise Island" grid, and Aquaman holding a trident on the "Atlantis" grid, etc. wait.

These superheroes based on the white grid, together with other villains and villains advancing along the black grid, form the core area of ​​the entire chessboard, occasionally dotted with a few neutrals on the gray grid, such as a man wearing a windbreaker and puffing smoke. guy.

This man named Constantine, with one foot in heaven and one foot in hell, is quite conspicuous on the chessboard.

As for the more peripheral areas, there are legions of seven different colors, among which the green light is always bright, the yellow is dim, and other colors do not shine.

Black and white are in a stage of non-existence.

"What about this?"

Qin stretched out a finger with interest.

In the center of the chessboard, there is a black-haired man, standing between the black and white grids, but unlike Constantine, he completely blends into the gray.

Surrounding this chess piece, superheroes and villains are roaming around. The two camps of justice and evil seem to be inextricably related to him.

"He..."

Sean chuckled.

"This is the wall-facer and sword-wielder of the multiverse... one of the players in this game."

Sean looked down at the chessboard and pondered for a while before answering slowly.

Looking away from the chessboard, he turned around and picked up the passionate Qin, and kissed her passionately. The two of them indulged in the joy in their hearts in this empty dormitory.

"That little Chloe sneaked out again."

After a long moment of pleasure, Qin, who was lying low in the thin quilt, showed her head and carefully wiped the corners of her mouth.

Then, lying in a solid and warm embrace, he talked about the little princess at home.

"You spoil her a little too much. This is not good... The poor little guy named Franklin who bullies Reed and Susan all day long will burst into tears when he sees Chloe."

"Chloe is my daughter."

Sean was quite proud, but instead praised: "I integrated the Phoenix Force when I was three years old, and I can play around with the Infinity Gauntlet at the age of eleven... This is like my child."

"The little troublemaker in the Richards family used to be called the most unfaithful mutant, but after meeting Chloe, he could only run home obediently and cry to find his mother."

"It's not like you sent Chloe to her Aunt Hela. She doesn't look like a girl at all. She's extremely naughty."

Qin said with a slight taste, and moved her palms in circles one after another on her lover's chest.

When it comes to women, Sean wisely kept his mouth shut. One is the supreme queen of the Army of the Dead, and the other is the host of the Phoenix Force. These two have always been against each other.

"Carrie's baby is also coming, and Chloe will soon have more brothers."

Sean changed the topic. As the daughter of Galactus, the pregnancy time for the little life in Janata's body was really long.

"Chloe has known about it for a long time. She said she was going to find those colorful rings and give them as gifts to her unborn brother."

A soft smile appeared on Qin's lips.

Sean frowned, then woke up after a moment and said with a smile: "Is this naughty little guy planning to steal something from the Seven Lantern Corps?"

Chloe must have secretly read the notes in her study and knew that the proximity of the two multiverses to each other created some tiny tunnels.

Beings like Sean, who are higher than the multiverse level and are between omniscient and omnipotent and transcendent beings, cannot enter by "smuggling".

But Chloe can. The most dazzling pearl in the universe always hears news about another multiverse from her father, and she must not be able to restrain her curiosity.

"It seems I'm going to pick up my daughter."

Sean kissed Qin's forehead and said softly.

The tall and straight figure was covered with golden light and disappeared into the spacious sleeping hall in an instant.

Only the huge chessboard was left, shining quietly like stars.
