Chapter 395 Only the Great Old Ones can kill the Great Old Ones!
The Black Death Sword has changed drastically from its initial form.
The original red and gold colors changed to a blood-red hue, and flesh and blood would occasionally ripple on the blade, as if the sword were alive!
Toby gripped the Black Death Sword tightly, stood there with his head down, and remained silent for a long time, only breathing heavily.
"call------"
Slurp—
After an unknown amount of time, strands of silvery-gray liquid flowed out from the gaps in the Destroyer armor, forming a hideous head in front of Toby.
Riot glanced fearfully at the mutated Black Death Sword in Toby's hand, then looked worriedly at the silent Toby. Finally, gritting his teeth, he asked:
"Master... Master, are you alright? You seem unwell; your body is filled with chaotic energy and distorted consciousness. I can't enter your body anymore..."
But Riot's words did not receive a response from Toby, which made Riot even more worried.
Did its worst fears still come true...?
If its owner is also infected, then...
The thought of the riots filled him with terror!
Then this world, no, the entire multiverse, would be completely doomed!
I can't even imagine a riot. If the bully spider, who treats Nar like a dog and locks him in a cage where he will never see the light of day, gets out of control, what a disaster that would be!
"Damn it! I'll fight to the death! Even if I die, I absolutely cannot let my master be corrupted! Hold on, master, I'm coming!"
Riot gritted his teeth one last time and rammed his head into Toby's head, intending to force his way into Toby's consciousness and rescue his master!
But before Riot's head could collide with Toby's head, its neck was grabbed by a large silver hand.
"Gah—uh, help! I can't breathe!"
Their necks were squeezed, which frightened the rioters so much that they squealed like ducks and screamed in terror!
"You're a symbiote, what do you need to breathe for?!"
It wasn't until the familiar, steady voice reached Riot's ears that his panicked heart was instantly calmed down.
Riot watched as Toby slowly raised his head. Although his eyes were still bloodshot, both his expression and tone were those of the Toby he once knew so well. Riot was so moved that he almost cried.
"Waaah, Master, it's so good to see you're still human!"
Toby: ......
"Are you praising me or cursing me?"
Toby, somewhat speechless, loosened his grip on the raging neck: "I was just getting used to the twisted power the Black Death Sword was absorbing. That stuff was stronger than wasabi; it almost blew my soul away!"
This wasn't Toby joking; it was for real.
After the Black Death Sword absorbed the twisted followers of an entire planet, those billions of twisted consciousnesses also entered the Black Death Sword.
But the core of the Black Death Sword is his soul imprint.
Therefore, these billions of distorted wills also rushed into his soul.
That feeling is far more terrifying than being charged at by a horde of billions of zombies!
Toby felt that his entire soul was crawling with indescribable, twisted things that kept whispering seductive words in his ears, trying to drag his soul into the eternal trap of the Great Old Ones!
Fortunately, Toby's will was strong enough.
He firmly believed that anything given to him for free by others, no matter how good, was just an illusion, except for what he had obtained with his own hands. He disdained the gifts from others!
Therefore, no matter how these voices tried to seduce him, he only had one thing to say:
Grilled squid skewers, 1.5 yuan each!
As Toby kept repeating this sentence in his mind, the indescribable tentacles reaching out to him seemed to land on a red-hot iron plate, sizzling like roasting meat!
What is this called? This is called the power of the mind!
In my own soul's domain, as long as I imagine my soul as a slab of iron and the Cthulhu that bewitches me as squid tentacles, I can combine them into a skewer of grilled squid!
You understand? Applause!
Next time you encounter Cthulhu, you can try this method; it should work too!
Of course, this is all predicated on the following conditions: your soul is inhabited by a super spider of at least multiverse-level power, your body possesses infinite power, you have collected all six Infinity Stones, you are wearing armor blessed by the gods, and you yourself are incredibly powerful...
Going back to reality.
The red light in Toby's eyes slowly faded, and the last unsettling distortion in his eyes also disappeared.
Seeing this, Riot breathed a sigh of relief and asked in confusion, "Master, why did you take such a great risk to absorb the twisted flesh and souls of the followers of the Old Ones?"
In Riot's view, even the life force of a planet was not enough to make his master risk his life!
Toby looked down at the crimson Black Death Sword in his right hand, a glint of madness flashing in his eyes:
"Why? Of course, it's to kill them. As everyone knows, the Great Old Ones cannot be killed by external forces, and only the Great Old Ones can kill them!"
"If I cannot obtain power that originates from them, then even if I can defeat them, I will never be able to truly kill them, and that is not what I want to see!"
"So, at the cost of a tiny bit of risk, I acquired a sword powerful enough to kill them, shifting the balance of power between us!"
"They are no longer the invaders intending to break through this cosmic barrier and continue to encroach upon other universes; I am their terminator!"
Finally, Toby abruptly looked up into the dark depths of space, meeting the gaze of a half-illusory crimson eye, and grinned cruelly:
"Now, the hunt begins!"
When Riot saw Toby suddenly look up, it hurriedly followed Toby's gaze, but apart from a pitch-black universe, it saw nothing since it had not gained any indescribable power.
"Master...Master, are you talking to me? Who were you looking at just now? There was no one else there! Don't scare me, I'm scared!"
The rioters' voices trembled, and they wrapped their long necks tightly around Toby's arm like pythons, seeking a sense of security.
Toby: ......
You've ruined such a nice atmosphere!
Toby's face darkened: "Cowardly trash! Get back into my body!"
"That's great!" Upon hearing this, Riot didn't feel like he was being scolded at all. Instead, he felt like he was hearing heavenly music and immediately entered Toby's calmed body.
After the riot subsided, the enormous eye that had been secretly watching him disappeared.
Toby didn't care about its disappearance. Instead, he gripped the sword and used it to erode the soul of the twisted thing within, reading its memories.
A moment later, Toby opened his eyes and murmured, "Have Earth's main fighting force all gone to help the Galactus Engine devour powerful life-bearing planets?"
"Their next stop is... the Void!"
