Chapter 656 Reed: Great, I gradually understand all this

"Hey! This...Mr.?"

Kahn raised his head and closed the necklace at the same time. In fact, he had already noticed someone approaching him. The reason why he did not react was because he was a celestial mage. The prerequisite for causing harm to him was to first eliminate the defensive magic that was effective 24 hours a day.

Looking at Susan and the others who looked a little embarrassed, Kahn was silent for a while and then asked.

"Kahn, my name."

"Okay, Mr. Kahn." Susan nodded. "We're very grateful for helping us defeat the enemy and healing Reed's injuries. By the way, would you like us to introduce ourselves?"

"No," Kahn refused, putting the necklace back into his shirt pocket. "The great Supreme has already told me all your information. I don't think we need to waste time on nonsense."

In fact, the reason why Kahn knew Reed and others was because he had fought with many other superheroes when he was hunting Spider-Man, and they naturally got to know each other over time.

But it was obvious that he couldn't say that at this time. Kahn couldn't say: Hey brother, I know all of you, do you know why? Because I've killed you several times.

"Well, that saves a lot of trouble," Johnny shrugged. "It just gives me a chilling feeling like I'm being followed. Is the god you believe in always watching us?"

"Johnny!" Susan glared at her brother. The latter's words were enough to arouse the hostility of a fanatic. If possible, Susan really didn't want to turn a potential friend into an enemy, especially when the other party was very strong and she was weak.

"As long as the Supreme God is willing, He can know everything you want to know." Kahn was not angry because of Johnny's words. Ignorance is not a crime, and he could see what kind of character the young man in front of him had.

Johnny really looks like that kind of idle playboy, but at the same time he still has his own persistence, and is considered a rare good young man. The verbal offense does not mean that he is disrespectful in his heart, he is just a little mean.

But Kahn still reminded Johnny that this time he could treat him as ignorant, but the next time Kahn would not hesitate to challenge him to a duel and defend his beliefs to the death.

Johnny is not the kind of person who cares too much about face. He apologized very straightforwardly. In this country made up of immigrants, faith is a very complex and serious issue. As a native American, he naturally understands these issues. It is not his style to know that he is in the wrong but still insist on being stubborn.

The little incident passed without any major incident. The quiet atmosphere gave Reed an opportunity to ask questions, and in the process saved everyone from embarrassment.

Sometimes it's like this. Even if both parties apologize to each other, both the parties at the center of the problem and the people watching will feel embarrassed. I guess only the more rational Reed can speak without any expression.

"Excuse me, Mr. Kahn." Reed came over with Ben's support. "I'd like to know some questions about the god you believe in. I don't know if it's offensive."

"Okay." Kahn nodded. "Answering some of my questions is also one of my missions on this trip."

This sentence made Reid frown even deeper, because there were more question marks in his head.

"I want to know what kind of existence the god you believe in is, and why he wants to help us?"

Although he had many questions, Reed was still prepared to start with the most basic ones. At least for now, he was still skeptical about the existence of a person who claimed to be God.

Don't get me wrong, Reed doesn't disbelieve in the existence of gods. It's just that in his opinion, gods are more like superhumans with great powers, just like the miracles described in the myths passed down from ancient times, which can also be performed by today's superhumans.

So Reed thought that this so-called Supreme Heavenly Being might just be a powerful superhuman. If possible, Reed still wanted to meet this Supreme Heavenly Being. The other party's continuous overtures might be a desire to cooperate with him. Reed happened to have the same idea. He wanted to use the Supreme Heavenly Being's power to get himself and others out of the ruins of New York. No one wanted to stay in such a desolate place.

Reed hadn't seen the various beakers and instruments in the laboratory for several days, and now he felt like ants were crawling all over his body.

Kahn was silent for a while, probably considering how to start his speech. After about ten seconds, he continued to speak.

"The god I serve, Supreme Heaven, is a dimensional demon god..."

It took a few minutes for Kahn to introduce in detail the settings of the vest that Yang Le had put on him to Reed and others, so that they had a clear understanding of this god called Supreme Heaven.

An independent space outside the universe sounds like some kind of pocket cosmic life form.

Reed also used his own cognition to label the dimensional demon, while Kahn continued to answer his questions.

"As for why I want to help you, it's because of a crisis from outside the universe." Kahn's tone was serious.

"A crisis beyond the universe?" Johnny scratched his head. "It sounds very far away."

"It can be very far or very close." Kahn didn't mind Johnny interrupting him, but continued to explain patiently.

"Take, for example, your previous enemies, the Viper Gang. The real mastermind behind their actions is a Viper lurking outside the multiverse. His name is Set, and he is the source of power for everyone in the Viper Gang."

"That snake staff?" Reed frowned and asked tentatively. The thing that caught his attention the most just now was indeed the strange snake staff. Even if one was not careful, it would be difficult not to notice the snake staff with a strong presence.

"That was the black magic tool that Set sent to various universes. It was also the source of his power, but now it has been destroyed."

Kahn nodded. It was the harpoon he threw that shattered Set's staff. Without the staff, the weakened Set should not dream of taking over the universe.

"Was the crisis outside the universe resolved soon?" Johnny asked, spreading his hands.

"If only it were that simple." Kahn shook his head. "Set isn't the only enemy watching this universe. There will only be more and more dangers coming our way, like the demons from other dimensions."

"Excuse me for interrupting," Ben said, raising his hand. "Isn't the Supreme Being you worship also one of the Dimensional Demons? Then why are you helping us?"

"That's exactly what I'm going to say next." Kahn raised his hand to signal Ben not to worry.

"There are both bad and good people in this world, and the same goes for dimensional demons. There are evil gods like the Lord of Hell, and there are good gods like the Supreme Heaven that I serve. The balance between good and evil allows countless multiverses to function. Otherwise, we would have been destroyed long ago."

Reed nodded, temporarily agreeing with Kahn's explanation, but he did not completely believe him.
