Curse of Death, the Secret of Oil, and Roxxon!

[Your actions have brought about a major turning point in the fate of the Nine Realms; you are awarded 50,000 points of Luck Value.]

[A subtle change has occurred to your Entry Panel.]

A clear and pleasant voice broadcast sounded.

Chen Ji's face lit up with joy.

50,000 Luck Value?!

That's quite a lot!

Only 5,000 Luck Value are needed to upgrade the last Red Entry!

Then, he checked the Entry Panel.

But when his gaze fell on the Entry Panel, a strange light immediately appeared in his eyes.

I felt extremely uneasy!

[Name]: Chen Ji

[Identity]: Red Emperor

[Talents]: Cursed by Knowledge +0 (Gold), Might Makes Miracles +0 (Gold), Perfected Sage +0 (Gold), Easy Wins Are the True Way (Red), Chosen One +0 (Gold), God Among Men +0 (Gold), Doing Whatever You Want +0 (Gold), Blood-Drop Rebirth +0 (Gold), Cangjie's Proxy (Black), Curse of Death (Black).

[Luck Value]: 95758

[Curse of Death] (Black): You are cursed by death; death will accompany you, and you are destined for a calamity.

"Um?!"

"Is a calamity destined to befall me?"

What does this mean?

Chen Ji's eyes were stern.

Die!

Was death already watching him?

Was the curse simply placed upon him through Hela?

Could it be that he will die at the hands of this Creator Deity?

Chen Ji immediately had a flood of ideas.

He doesn't have the power to contend with the Creator Deity.

After all, in the Eternal Temple deep in the universe, there is a colossal statue of death!

If Eternity has a temple, then is it possible that death, as its opposite, does not have a Death Temple?

Ordinary people can receive the blessings of the Creator Deity by making a wish!

For example, in Love and Thunder, the Gorr the God Butcher was the first to enter the Gate of Eternity and, with the help of the power of Eternity, resurrected his daughter.

Perhaps this shouldn't be called a resurrection, but rather a reshaping!

Gorr's daughter became a Cosmic Entity.

'Like'!

If each of the four Creator Deity a temple, then anyone who enters the Death Temple may become Death's Agent.

Even if it wasn't Thanos, just being Death's Agent made Chen Ji feel threatened.

Die.

It represents the end of all things.

The alternation of the Multiverse is also a form of death and rebirth, but it goes beyond the realm of common sense.

Chen Ji lowered his eyebrows and remained silent.

"How come the aura of death emanating from you is stronger than mine?"

Hela was speechless.

She originally wanted to break the curse.

But she discovered that this was no longer her responsibility!

"Your curse is essentially Curse of Death, one you cannot break."

"You can stay in the Painted Realm for now."

"Also, I'd like to ask you something."

"Niflheim, is there any more Black Water?"

Chen Ji then changed the subject.

I asked about Black Water again.

This is the substance flowing from the Well of the World's Beginning.

It was through this substance that the Black Celestials under the First Firmament's command transformed into Colored Celestials.

Arishem then became the Supreme Celestial.

Although he possesses the Icebreaker Hammer, extracting the Black Water from it is extremely difficult.

Because no substance can melt or Icebreaker...

"The Black Water of Hel have dried up and completely disappeared."

"Perhaps this is related to the Celestials."

Hela hesitated.

The Black Water ceased to exist when she fell into Niflheim.

This was something she had heard about.

"I see."

Chen Ji nodded secretly.

Since Black Water is so important, belonging to a multi-level strategic resource, the Cosmic Celestial certainly wouldn't let it go.

Otherwise, how could there be thousands of Cosmic Celestial?

In theory, the number of Celestials is Infinity.

But the amount of Black Water is limited!

This is equivalent to the blood of the universe!

The First Firmament!

But...

Chen Ji then remembered something else.

Oil.

It's also Black Water!

This is also known as fossil fuels.

According to modern scientific theories, the formation and origin of petroleum are related to changes in biological sedimentation.

This inference is only half correct.

Petroleum originates from living organisms, which in turn originate from Black Water. After reacting with the Earth's environment, petroleum is produced.

Essentially.

Petroleum is essentially a Black Water containing a large number of impurities.

However, it also possesses considerable energy.

Therefore, oil was used as fuel, creating a brilliant and splendid technological civilization and rapidly ushering in the Industrial Revolution.

In other words...

Once enough oil is collected, it can be purified into real Black Water!

By strengthening the Sacred Blood with the Black Water, Chen Ji underwent a transcendent sublimation from the inside out!

This brings us to a company based on Earth.

'Roxxon Oil Company'.

This company is also a current global giant in capital, with operations and interests in various industries, and it is expanding aggressively in order to seize energy.

To achieve their goals, they resort to any means necessary, trampling on moral bottom lines, disregarding social conscience, and ignoring legal order.

Wherever there is profit, there will be Roxxon Oil Company!

Sugar from the Weird World also comes from the Roxxon Group, Roxxon Doll Company.

There's a Roxxon in almost every universe!

So, what shady dealings are behind Roxxon Oil Company?

Is this really just an ordinary company?

Still...

"The founders of Roxxon Oil Company discovered the Mystery of oil and Black Water long ago and have been conducting related research ever since?"

Chen Ji's expression was subtle.

He always saw the shadow of this company, but he never actually dealt with it.

But...

He vaguely remembered that the current president of Roxxon Oil Company possessed the power of a Greek demigod and could transform into the legendary Minotaur, also known as a bull-headed man!

Under the leadership of this minotaur, Roxxon Oil Company expanded its business scope to include robotics and cross-dimensional exploration technologies.

Furthermore, within the realms of genetic engineering and Cybertek, they have achieved remarkable, world-leading accomplishments.

The rise of the Vought Group undoubtedly threatened the interests of Roxxon Oil Company, and it is almost conceivable that Roxxon Oil Company would resort to underhanded tactics!

"At least..."

"We need to find a large oil field and try to refine the oil into Black Water..."

Chen Ji thought to himself.

Since Ragnarok has been temporarily over.

Therefore, there is no need to stay here.

While they were talking.

A portal to another dimension opened out of thin air.

Everyone was utterly astonished.

"List!"

"Are you leaving?"

Thor, the Hammer God Thor, wore a complicated expression.

What should be done with Hela and Surtur?

Remaining in the Painted Realm?

Isn't this tantamount to inviting a wolf into the house?!

"I believe Hela and Surtur will make the right choice."

"After all, the Gods Above Gods is eyeing us covetously."

"They might even want to devour this celestial Asgard."

Chen Ji narrowed his eyes slightly.

He wouldn't mind cooperating with Hela and Surtur.

Because the Gods Above Gods is also an alliance!

Who knows how many Ancient Titans still exist in Utgard?

Always prepare for the worst!

He's not in a comedy cartoon like Tom and Jerry, but in an extremely dangerous Marvel Universe.

There are both demons and gods.

I fear that if we are not careful, death could occur!

"I agree to cooperate with you."

"But you must also remember your promise."

Hela's beautiful eyes showed signs of fatigue.

She had no confidence even when facing the Gods Above Gods.

Who could possibly beat that?

And she had no desire to return to the desolate and cold Niflheim, so the Asgard Dimension became her only option.

"The Gods Above Gods actually poisoned the Eternal Flame and used me countless times."

"Then I must take revenge!"

"Make all the Gods Above Gods pay a terrible price!"

"But I won't stay here. When you decide to start a war, come find me in the Land of Flames!"

Surtur, a colossal and imposing figure, made his decision: he would make the Ancient Titans pay for their crimes!

He is not the end of Asgard, but the end of Utgard!

Swish!

Surtur swung his sword, cleaving through the Cosmic Veil and creating a spatial vortex out of thin air.

It leads directly to the Flame Kingdom, one of the Nine Realms.

Muspelheim!

This country truly lives up to its name.

Everywhere was burning, and the air was filled with a scorching heat. If an ordinary person stepped into this place, all moisture would be evaporated.

Even the Frost Giants could not withstand the intense heat of the Fire Kingdom.

Surtur walked through the doorway.

Then, Chen Ji waved his hand and erased the spatial vortex.

As for what happens next, that's up to Thor and Heimdall.

The Asgard Dimension is not a true Asgard; it has no Bifrost and no magical artifacts!

The artifacts collected by Odin may have drifted to other universes, and whoever falls into their hands could potentially cause disaster.

"Thor."

"Once you're ready, go find the lost artifacts of Asgard."

Chen Ji's eyes flickered.

The Orb of Agamotto Three Sacred Artifacts of Agamotto of Agamotto.

It was then displayed in Odin's Vault.

Eye of Agamotto, Orb of Agamotto, Amulet of Agamotto.

Once these three treasures are collected, one can obtain Agamotto's legacy, and he doesn't mind learning from him.

Learning other people's secrets is also a way to understand them.

It's likely that once the Seven Realms War breaks out, he will meet with Agamotto, and all Magical Entity and Ancient Titans will appear during the Seven Realms War!

The Ancient Titans lived from the First Generation to the seventh generation...

She'll be standing in front of him soon!

This made Chen Ji's eyes gleam.

There is both anticipation and caution.

Fortunately, he was already able to "Blood-Drop Rebirth," and had even placed blood packs and backups at different points in time!

Even if I die once, I will not lose my strength!

"Indeed."

"The artifacts of Asgard must remain in Asgard."

Thor's expression was solemn.

But without the Bifrost, how can we find the magical artifact?

"That's easy."

Chen Ji nodded.

The next second!

As he activated the power of Infinite Law, six-colored light swept out.

Moment.

At the edge of the Asgard Dimension, a rainbow bridge appeared. This rainbow bridge transcends dimensions and contains the Law of Space!

It can teleport to any node in the current universe.

Heimdall smiled.

It seems I can continue to serve as the god of gatekeeping.

He had no doubt about the function of the Bifrost.

After all, the original Bifrost also originated from the Space Stone.

Odin was the first owner of the Space Stone!

In conclusion

All Asgardians were very satisfied with the status quo; even though the real Asgard was destroyed, there was another Asgard!

And all of this was brought about by Chen Ji!

The Asgardians looked at Chen Ji with a mixture of admiration and reverence.

In everyone's ranking, Chen Ji has already surpassed Odin!

Sokovia.

Emergency services and local armed forces are maintaining order.

Ragnarok, which occurred in Asgard, naturally affected the other eight kingdoms.

Especially Midgard.

The earthquakes occurred to varying degrees in different regions.

Fortunately, it's still within a controllable range.

This impoverished and backward small country in Eastern Europe, under the leadership of Baron Zemo, became the dominant power on the Balkan Peninsula and the true leader of Eastern Europe!

Even the great powers, though extremely unwilling, could only watch as Sokovia grew stronger.

But they have been secretly carrying out various activities all along.

They wanted to apply the advanced technology of the Chitauri Civilization to the fields of war and military affairs in preparation for World War III.

This is practically a closely guarded secret.

A war between humans and Mutant is inevitable!

Furthermore, recent major news events have instilled extreme fear in Mutant, causing them to quietly flee Sokovia.

"Raven."

Is this news true?

"A God-Level Mutant has appeared in Egypt?"

"Has he already conquered Egypt?"

Magneto held the document, his brow furrowed slightly as he looked at its contents, his expression complex.

The international situation is changing so rapidly, almost daily.

This was completely unexpected!

"That's right."

"It is said that this God-Level Mutant calls himself Apocalypse and has formed the Four Horsemen of Apocalypse."

"He has become the Pharaoh of Egypt."

"He can transform ordinary people into Mutant, and he can also enhance the abilities of Mutant..."

"It seems to have no weaknesses."

Mystique sighed softly.

This is the intelligence she gathered from her investigation on the dark web.

This God-Level Mutant had already appeared during the Dreamslayer Celestial Plan, but had not taken any action.

By the time he attracted the attention of the Vought Group, he had already destroyed modern buildings in Egypt and used his abilities to rebuild a pyramid!

With such incredible abilities, there's no doubt that Apocalypse is God-Level Mutant!

Possible...

Apocalypse's skill in the field of mutants is comparable to Chen Ping's.

But no one knows his origins!

I have no idea why he was in Egypt!

"Let's not even talk about Apocalypse..."

"It seems like there's been a change of president in the United States, with William Stryker United States vice president General Ross becoming secretary of defense?"

Magneto has keen eyesight.

He then looked at another document.

This is no secret.

William Stryker's appointment as deputy commander and General Ross's becoming secretary of defense are recent developments!

As for why he didn't become president?

Perhaps, because the president needs to be in the public eye, it could easily affect the Super-Soldier Program and the Weapon X project!

But the birth of the Golden Sentry has already instilled fear in Magneto.

Legend has it that this Golden Sentry possessed power Equal to God, and was also a drug addict!

His strength far surpasses Captain Marvel's!

Although I've never seen him use his full power, he can easily kill enemies in every battle and mission!

Large numbers of Mutant living in United States Carnage by the Golden Sentry!

Even Xavier Mansion was within the scope of the Carnage.

It's just that there's no suitable reason.

That's how Professor X escaped unscathed.

Professor X's health, however, is deteriorating almost daily.

According to the tests conducted on Beast Hank, he is suspected of having early-stage Alzheimer's disease!

Once the [superbrain] goes out of control...

The consequences would be unimaginable!

Furthermore, the Sentinel Special Operations has also developed a combat robot, codenamed Sentry!

It was specifically designed for Mutant.

Roxxon Oil Company was the mastermind behind it all!

All of the above actions prove that World War III is imminent!
