After being beheaded by the Egyptian princess who was probably no longer Ophelia, everything in Thomas's eyes "frozen". Then, everything he saw began to quickly lose its original color, texture and three-dimensionality. It seemed It's like the sideways stone murals common in ancient Egypt.
After that, more lithographs fell on the "lithograph" depicting the current scene, stacking it up and covering it up. What finally fell was a golden stone slab depicting the sun, making these stacked stone slabs look like A big book.
Then, the "big book" closed its pages, and a black box quietly appeared inside.
Isn't that the box that contained the "Li Di goods" before? Thomas's eyes widened—or at least he thought he did.
Finally, the box snapped shut and locked, fading from Thomas' sight and disappearing entirely.
Well, Thomas looked at the familiar gray fog in front of him and began to think.
During this period of time, as the high priest of Egypt, I killed a pharaoh?
"[Hey hey hey, just in case you think I have some hobby of turning people into tentacle monsters, let me explain,]" Li Dihuo, or "SUNWUKONG"'s voice sounded: "[That pharaoh has died long ago. After he took the initiative to contact and inherit the 'Black Adam Mark' used by 'Kang the Conqueror' for 'resurrection', destroying the connection between that mark and the Egyptian god is the only thing you can do with your current ability. Think about it , do you think you can defeat that tentacle monster?]"
Then who killed him? What happened to Ophelia? What is the relationship between Ansuna and Atlanna? Thomas tried to ask, but he wasn't sure if he had a mouth in this state.
"[...I'm so annoyed!]" SUNWUKONG suddenly became angry.
What, what? Too many questions?
"[Eat, eat, eat! You know how to eat!]"
? ? ?
"[Hmm...]" Although he couldn't see the look on the golden-armored monkey, Thomas could guess from his tone that he probably didn't look good now. After a pause, he continued to explain: "[Kill him, of course. It was your Green Lantern friends who traveled to an era about 1,500 years earlier than you. By pretending to join another villain, Apocalypse, they encouraged them to fight against each other and successfully destroyed the body of Kang the Conqueror. But by chance, he obtained the power of 'fire' and left the inheritance. As long as someone touches the mark he left and successfully calls on the power of the Egyptian gods, he can use this to resurrect that person.】"
So, "Ophelia" would say that he "walks with fire"?
"[If you had not done anything in the sacrificial ceremony and allowed 'Seti I' to successfully ignite the 'fire', then he would gain great power in the next fifty years and fulfill the heroic words he told you, Finally, before the 'liquidation', plant the 'Mark of Black Adam' on you and wait for the next resurrection,]" It seems that the person who "just knows how to eat" has learned a lesson, SUNWUKONG's tone calmed down: "[And you If the ritual is destroyed, the 'liquidation' will naturally occur immediately. Hehehe, the 'end of the future reincarnation' is being liquidated by the 'end of the past reincarnation'. It looks really wonderful.]"
If they were of the same type, why would they fight?
"[Hehehe, because 'that Ophelia' is actually 'Death Of Endless', and 'creating more deaths' is work. She is not too keen on it. As far as personal preference is concerned, she prefers to watch To the 'wonderful death', if it is wonderful enough, she will resurrect people. Therefore, she extremely hates the 'undead', including but not limited to vampires, werewolves, mummies, and lichs. If someone obtains it through the power of other gods, As long as she maintains her original shape, she can be immune to her immortality, but if something goes wrong and she turns into a twisted monster, she will directly kill people.】"
Although I don’t quite understand it, I think I won, right?
“[Yes, you can go back to the normal timeline now, of course, there may be some changes,]” SUNWUKONG continued: “[I’ll give you a suggestion, when something is taken for granted by everyone, you It’s best not to express any objection.]”
It changed history, right? You know.
"[Okay, let's go,]" SUNWUKONG began to mutter, and his voice gradually became quieter: "[Since we have encountered 'death', then Deadpool doesn't need to keep an eye on him for the time being. I'm going to arrange some back-ups. Prepare some plans to cooperate with [her] random acts, such as...]"
etc? I can't move now, how can I leave?
call--
At this time, the gray fog stirred for a moment, and then dispersed in all directions.

——AD, 1933——
The new scene seems to be an archaeological site of desert ruins, with various modern equipment and workers and guards wearing contemporary clothes busy.
But this time, he did not "enter" the world again as Thomas thought. He looked at the excavation site from a bird's-eye view as if he was watching a movie.
Then, did I see Ansuna or Atlanna?
The leader of this archaeological exploration and excavation team is a beautiful woman who looks like the princess of Atlantis no matter how you look at it. She directs the workers to excavate the temple that Thomas is quite familiar with like a prophet.
This seems to be... no way?
Before Thomas could think of anything, the excavation work had made important progress. Workers lifted a huge piece of amber that was three people high from the temple buried in the sand.
Unexpectedly, what was in the amber was "High Priest Immorton". He looked little changed from when Thomas "left". He was still wearing the black robe of the high priest, with his hands folded in front of his chest, and his expression was calm. It seems like he just fell asleep.
At least he didn't turn into an ugly mummy, Thomas thought.
"My dear," Ansuna raised her hand to touch Immorton through the amber: "I will definitely resurrect you."
Weird, really weird. According to my own experience, it shouldn't have developed like this, right?
Could it be that before he was thrown by the monkey to intervene, the stories of Immorton, Ansuna, Seti I and Ophelia were completely different from what was known?
"Now, I have a task for you," Ansuna turned around, her expression changing from an affectionate wife to a proud queen in a second: "Bring back the 'Death Bracelet'. If you let me down, you know the consequences."
Waiting for orders behind her were about ten mercenary-looking people wearing cloaks and carrying various weapons.
On the other side, there were four people who looked roughly the same as Ansuna. They seemed to have not yet figured out the situation and were looking around.
Their appearance seemed vaguely familiar to Thomas.
The red-haired scimitar bodyguard, the strong and honest servant, the tall and thin scholar, and the chubby young man whose clothes are decorated with many jewelry, look like a rich young man on vacation.
... Could it be the "Deadpool Legion"?
The next moment, Thomas could only observe. The inaccessible world suddenly shrank and turned into a small sphere like a glass marble, which shot up in the direction of the "sky" and disappeared.
