Marvel: Awakening the Universe.

Chapter 379 Saving People but Losing Land, Both People and Land Preserved (Third Update!!!)

A craftsman wants to do his job well.

You must first sharpen your tools.

Hawke's only chance to steal the World Tree was very short-lived.

His only chance is at the moment the World Tree is cut down and at the instant the main universe's time completely invades the World Tree.

thorough!

nothing left!

It wasn't burning, but rather a complete and unrestrained explosion of his inner universe. Only with a chance could he snatch the World Tree from the hands of time.

because--

Time flies, in the blink of an eye, in an instant, in a flash.

But no matter how fast time goes, it can never be faster than the moment of the Big Bang.

The reason is simple.

Time came first, then life.

But the universe existed even before time.

If the universe had not exploded, then life, space, and even time would all be nonexistent.

Therefore, the moment of the Big Bang was always faster than time.

There is only one question.

Hawke must find that exact time, and at that very moment, unleash the full potential of his inner universe.

Therefore, he needs the Saint Cloth.

A Saint Cloth that fits you perfectly.

Phoenix Gold Cloth!

Again.

Only those Saints who wear Saint Cloths are true Saints.

Adamantium, which came from the unborn Celestial God Thiam of the Celestial Group, and was used as silver stardust.

The ultimate golden life energy from the unborn Celestial Thiam, used to serve as Gamanion.

and also……

Hawke used a massive amount of Adamantium in exchange for Uru metal, which was obtained in equal measure from the dwarf king Etri, to serve as the substitute for orbium.

as well as--

The projection of the Phoenix Cloth, which Hawk projected onto the interior of the Nivida Forging Factory, was extremely brilliant and dazzling, as if it were a living thing.

The phoenix cries out in the sky, its name resounds!
The golden phoenix armor projected above seemed to know what Hawk intended to do with it, and thus continuously emitted clanging sounds.

A person cannot live without a heart.

The same is true of the phoenix.

Only a phoenix that stands on a parasol tree is a true phoenix.

The voice of King Eitel the Dwarf echoed continuously within the forge of Nivida, as one dwarf after another took their place.

The mold for the Golden Phoenix Armor is taking shape at a speed visible to the naked eye.

But saying it's visible to the naked eye is just Hawke's perception.

This was his third day in Nivida.

There is only one reason why he felt the dwarves were casting the molds for the Holy Armor very quickly.

Hawke's mind was in turmoil.

Although he was standing not far away, calmly watching, the dwarves before him seemed to be moving because of the Golden Phoenix Cloth.

in fact……

He wanted the mold to form more slowly.

Because Hawke didn't really want to steal the World Tree.

If possible.

But Gwen is right.

Time will not back down because of your forbearance, unless you go and see the ending that time has arranged for you.

and so!
Even though Hawke knew very well that if he seized the World Tree, the time of rage would choose the person closest to him in his timeline to separate from him.

But Hawke had no choice.

If the land is saved and people are lost, both people and land will be lost.

People and land are saved, and people and land are saved.

Our ancestors said this a long time ago, and this is the fundamental reason why Hawke never accepts any form of coercion or even any form of provocation.

therefore!

Hawke calmly watched as, seemingly in slow motion, one Saint Cloth mold after another was being forged by his lovers.

The image of a kind and gentle person who had witnessed his growth since he was a nobody, but who would soon be separated from him, emerged in his heart.

His wife.

"Gwen."

"I don't know."

On Earth, Wanda, who had been summoned by Gwen for three consecutive days to go shopping with her and then invited by Gwen to cook together at 521A Palm Street, finally couldn't resist anymore.

Wanda frowned as she looked at a note in her hand.

"Phoenix Number One Sauce!"

Ingredients: Blueberries, strawberries...

Production method: ……

Wanda was a little confused. She looked at the apron that had been tied around her neck and the ingredients that had been laid out in front of her. She looked at Gwen beside her and said, "This is your secret recipe. Why are you giving it to me?"

Gwen smiled slightly, looking at Wanda, who looked completely bewildered.

"share!"

"Share?" Wanda looked into Gwen's expressive emerald eyes and felt that Gwen had been acting strangely for the past three days.

Over the past three days, Gwen has shared many things with her.

But there is only one core theme.

Hawk!

During those three days, Wanda heard Gwen talk about Hawke.

private life.

For example, what Hawke likes and dislikes.

At first, Wanda didn't notice anything wrong, assuming that Hawke wasn't home and Gwen just wanted to complain about her husband.

This is normal.

Mrs. Zheng, who lives next door to Xijing Town, would complain to her about her husband, Zheng Xian, while the two of them watched their children playing together at the playground.

For example, when he goes on a mission, he won't be home for several days. Even when he takes a vacation, he's worried about company matters and is not focused on his work.

The Russian woman next door, after Mrs. Zheng started complaining, also started criticizing her husband.

For example, he likes to drink, and once he drinks, he loses all sense of proportion. Once, when they went on vacation in the mountains, they ran out of alcohol, and heavy snow blocked the mountain pass. He even drank antifreeze as if it were alcohol.

So Wanda initially thought Gwen was just complaining to her.

But right now?
Wanda looked at the recipe for Phoenix No. 1 Sauce in her hand.

She immediately realized something was wrong.

because……

In the East, sharing how to cook food might be fine, but in the Federation, culinary secrets are kept by the head of the household, and they're the kind of secrets that no outsider, no matter how close they are, can take away.

For example.

For example, if you have a very close friend who really loves his wife's secret-recipe grilled steak, even if he tries his best to persuade his wife on his friend's behalf, she would rather invite her friend over to eat the secret-recipe grilled steak every day than share her culinary recipe.

and so!
Gwen's act of sharing her secret food recipe, and the "share" she just mentioned, left Wanda somewhat dazed, before she recalled Gwen's conversations over the past three days.

Wanda had a bad feeling about her.

"Gwen, what happened?"

"Nothing."

Gwen shrugged: "Jin, Billy, and Tommy are also from Phoenix, so if you learn this recipe, you can make it for them too."

Wanda listened to Gwen's explanation with a look full of suspicion and disbelief.

"Is that all?"

"of course."

Gwen smiled and said, "And in the future, if I don't come back, you can help make it for Hawke."

Wanda raised an eyebrow, having caught the key word.

"Wait, what do you mean by 'if you didn't come back'?"

"Working overtime."

Gwen looked at Wanda and chuckled, "My experimental project is at a critical stage. In a few days, I might have to go to the lab to work overtime and won't have much time to come back. So I was thinking of calling you over while I'm not too busy yet. If I really get busy later, I'll need to ask you to help me take care of Hawk. You have no idea how poor Hawk's self-care ability is. If I don't remind him, he won't even think about eating for three days."

As Gwen spoke, she once again began to criticize Hawke.

As Wanda listened to Gwen's explanation, the suspicion in her eyes gradually dissipated.

She knew that Gwen had a laboratory at Stark Industries, and Gwen had told her what the laboratory was like when it was busy before their marriage.

and so……

When Wanda heard that Gwen wanted her to help cook a meal for Hawke and tidy up the house while she was too busy to come back, the suspicion in Wanda's eyes gradually faded.

Only one question remains.

Wanda looked at Gwen with some uncertainty: "I'm fine with this, but have you told Hawke about it?"

"I make the decisions about things at home. People who cannot live independently are not qualified to participate in family affairs."

Gwen smiled slightly and said this in a very domineering way, then pointed to the "Phoenix No. 1 Sauce" food card in Wanda's hand and changed the subject with a smile.

"Let's not talk about that. I might not be busy. Come on, let me teach you how to make Sauce Number One. Hawk really likes this Sauce Number One. His taste is not much different from that of a child. If you learn how to make it, you can make it for Jean, Billy, and Tommy."

"……All right."

Wanda was still a little hesitant, feeling that something was not quite right, but she nodded first and then helped Gwen make Phoenix No. 1 sauce.

of course.

It's not just Phoenix No. 1 Sauce.

After Gwen independently created Phoenix's signature sauce in Wanda, she pulled out several more food cards.

Time ticks by.

The dwarf banged and knocked.

As time passed, but in Hawke's mind it was only a few breaths.

at last!

The molds for the Golden Phoenix Armor have all been made; now it's time to begin the actual forging process.

Having adjusted himself and entered his prime, the dwarf king Etri, who was focused on forging an unprecedented weapon, turned his gaze to Hawk, who had been standing silently to the side watching them all day.

"If you're ready, we can begin."

"……Um?"

Upon hearing this, Hawke snapped out of his peculiar state and looked at Etri, who was speaking to him.

next second.

His previously unfocused pupils began to focus at an extremely fast speed.

then……

Hawke's gaze fell on the forging materials and Saint Cloth molds that were ready to be prepared to the side. After a moment of hesitation, he took a deep breath and looked at Etri, who was staring at him, and nodded calmly.

"bring it on!"

"..."
