Man in Marvel: The Manifestation of the Gods

Soon, the intelligent optical computer projected a large amount of information.

"First, I searched for legends about wizards. Most of them are fictional, but some are classified as confidential by governments of various countries."

"Among them are documents related to the Grim Reaper."

Roddy clicked on a few of the documents, and his brows furrowed more and more as he read, until his expression became extremely solemn.

He finally knew what he might face in the end.

Claire and Alex on the side also looked at it and read out the information.

"The volcano in Pompeii erupted? The wizard brought disaster and caused the Black Death? He was finally burned at the stake..."

"The Spanish Flu? The Icelandic volcano eruption...two million dead and injured?"

"Neon tsunami... Tunguska meteorite falls."

Rather than being about wizards or the god of death, these materials are about major disasters that have occurred in human history.

Including earthquakes, tsunamis, hurricanes, volcanic eruptions, epidemic viruses, etc.

But the literature indicates.

The occurrence of these disasters did not occur accidentally.

Instead, it was judged that the God of Death was eliminating certain people - those who were targeted by Him.

...

For example, the volcanic eruption in the ancient city of Pompeii in history.

According to the data, after measurements by modern experts, it was determined that the disaster caused by a full eruption of Mount Vesuvius would not be as serious as that caused by the ancient city of Pompeii.

However, the great eruption in 79 AD was completely inconsistent with scientific logic.

This document is marked top secret and listed in the Reaper Purge Plan.

Also included is the Black Death, which caused the Dark Ages in Medieval Europe.

Unlike the merely speculated Pompeii disaster.

This document records in detail the events that led to the outbreak of the Black Death in the Crimean Peninsula.

There was a local wizard who had the gift of prophecy and was very famous.

He was also a guest of honor of nearby lords and kings at the time. It is said that he helped local lords escape many disasters and was highly valued.

But then the wizard had a premonition of his own death and began to flee.

The god of death kept chasing him, but he was always predicted by this "wizard" and was able to escape.

Originally the disaster would not have been so serious, but the wizard fled for too long.

This caused the God of Death to launch a large-scale purge, determined to kill all the hiding wizards.

This led to the Black Death, which ravaged Europe, North Africa and Central Asia and killed 80 million people.

Eventually the wizard was caught in England and his head was chopped off, and the Black Death seemed to disappear overnight.

...

"Oh, God."

Alex sat down on the chair with fear.

The document states that this was also the direct cause of the witch hunt.

Led by the Vatican, people with the ability to predict the future were captured throughout Europe. Once discovered, they would be labeled as wizards and executed.

At that time, people did not understand the list of death, but they knew that wherever these people passed, disasters would occur.

People were too afraid of another disaster like the Black Death.

Those who can cause major disasters all have powerful talents, or even superpowers. The most famous ability is the ability to predict death.

During World War II, the little mustache guy specifically looked for such people and sent them to enemy countries in an attempt to cause disasters, but unfortunately he failed.

Most of them died in various accidents.

Only one person can truly escape death.

However, in modern times, such super disasters have gradually become less common.

The document states that this is because people on the death list are more likely to suffer various accidents.

They died before they could bring about greater disaster.

Of course some people escaped.

For example, the most famous super tsunami caused by the Argentina earthquake was not a natural disaster after investigation, but a disaster caused by the god of death in order to eliminate the super-powered people who were on the death list and were trying to escape.

Therefore, various countries set up a special department in the League of Nations to replace the former position of the Holy See to complete the witch hunt that had lasted for thousands of years.

...

These contents made Rody's scalp tingle, and it also made other people's scalps tingle.

"This is impossible... How is this possible? Why would the God of Death kill thousands or even tens of thousands of people just for one person?"

Sam Roden was a little bit unbelievable.

He stepped back and said, after all, he was the "prophet" stated in the documents who needed to be eliminated immediately once discovered.

"Maybe the Grim Reaper is just a program whose job is to clean up those who deserve to die."

Rody said solemnly, "We are like a bunch of computer viruses to the God of Death and even the world. The God of Death is the antivirus software, and will constantly try to eliminate us, even if it means directly clearing the computer or flashing it."

"..."

Roddy's analogy is quite correct, but it is a bit discouraging.

"Then should we die?" Carter couldn't stand it anymore. He became anxious again and paced back and forth in the room.

"I don't want to die, I just want to live, what's wrong with that?!"

"Wait a minute guys, what we should be most worried about right now is not this, but that we may have attracted the attention of this department. What should we do?"

Claire calmly pointed out the problem, it was written above.

If it is discovered that someone is escaping accidents repeatedly, this special department formed by the League of Nations will be required to intervene in the investigation and, if necessary, eliminate or control the other party.

"Then do we still need to stay here?" Carter's girlfriend said at a loss.

...

at this time.

The two FBI agents who had been silent on both sides suddenly received a call.

It was the head of the FBI in this city who called, and he was very anxious.

"Hey, Joet, where are you now? Remember those survivors of Flight 180 that you were monitoring? I want you to control them now and don't let them leave."

It seems that misfortunes never come alone.

Roddy raised an eyebrow and controlled one of the agents to respond: "OK, I got it."

Now, the other survivors who didn't know that the two agents had been controlled by Roddy began to panic.

"Hey! Get out of here! We need to get out of here!"

Sam Roden naturally didn't want to die, so he quickly found a frying pan with some spaghetti left on it and pointed it at the two agents.

Others also seek for handy weapons in order to ensure their own freedom and avoid being secretly disposed of or becoming test subjects.

"That's enough. Don't worry. They won't catch us."

Roddy spoke up to stop the infighting, and before Sam and the others could be surprised, he snapped his fingers at the two agents who were waiting for his command.

"You'll say you didn't catch us later."

"Yes, sir."

The two agents nodded.

Now that they discovered that they might not only be hunted by the god of death but also by humans, these two people were no longer of any use.

Not only that.

It seems that his previous plan of waiting quietly for the young couple Carter and Terry to raise a new life has to be declared a failure.

Roddy couldn't possibly take care of everyone.

It's time to make a decision.

.....

"We need to split up." Roddy thought for a moment and said.

The crowd was in an uproar.

"What, why can't we be together?"

"No, please don't abandon us, please."

"If we move together, we will be too conspicuous." Rody shook his head. He couldn't take care of so many people because his strength was limited.

You have to know when to let go. Although Roddy is jealous of the points, saving his life is the most important thing.

However, he still gave Alex and others reasonable advice.

"Let's split into two teams to avoid being caught by the police. I think there's something wrong with the Death God's plan this time. It might be aimed at me."

Roddy explained calmly.

"Following me might make you more vulnerable to accidents, and the disaster level will rise sharply."

"Sam, you guys just encountered some simple dangers, like the gas was blown out and you were almost hit by a piece of iron, but if I wasn't there, Alex and Claire would have died."

Just now Alex described to Sam and the others how bad the situation was.

Obviously, the danger encountered by following Rody is completely different from that of others.

After hearing this, Carter and Terry, who were still begging not to abandon them, fell silent.

On one side there is no extraordinary protection but the risk is smaller, on the other side there is extraordinary protection but the risk is greater, how should you choose?
