Marvel: Awakening the Universe.

Have you ever seen a picture of the birth of the universe?
I doubt anyone has ever seen it.

But have you ever seen what the universe looks like when it's destroyed?

Hawke has seen him.

Right now!

At first, it was just a glimmer of light, but not the light of dawn shining through the mist, nor the red light flickering in a dark room. Instead, it was a golden-red light that burst forth simultaneously from every corner and every location in the universe.

The stars are no longer distant points of light, but have become the source of light.

At this very moment, every star, planet, and even the tiniest speck of interstellar dust in this universe begins to burn from within.

The boundless universe was completely transformed into a sea of ​​fire.

Golden-red flames burst forth from every corner of the universe, soaring into the sky, and the flames seemed to construct a golden-red fire phoenix in the universe.

To be precise, it wasn't the universe that created this phoenix, but rather the phoenix that completely embraced the universe.

It was precisely because of this that the universe, completely surrounded by the phoenix, began to burn because it could not withstand the phoenix's temperature.

The moment the first wave of fire swept across the universe, the universe also began its march toward destruction.

The spiral-shaped nebula slowly curls and dissipates, like ink on rice paper.

Instead of swallowing, the black holes spewed out all the matter they had accumulated, forming a brief but magnificent fountain.

The crust of each planet also began to melt into flowing rivers of light, drawing their final trails across the starry sky.

All planets are heading towards destruction.

Naturally.

The solar system is no exception, which of course includes Earth.

after all--

If Earth isn't destroyed, the God of Order he designated for himself, Thiam, won't be able to be born, and from then on, he'll serve him like a slave, working tirelessly to help him maintain the time order of the entire Phoenix Universe.

And it's the kind of thing that doesn't require any payment.

How could he possibly miss out on such high-quality cattle and horses?

but--

Although the Earth is being destroyed, and life on it is being destroyed along with the Earth, some people are not among those who perish.

such as--

Hawke turned his gaze to Professor X, who had been invited to witness this moment.

Professor X's expression at this moment was beyond words; he seemed to be staring blankly at the impending doomsday scenario of the universe.

"How is it, Charles?"

Hawke took in Professor X's expression and said calmly, "Isn't this a beautiful sight?"

Upon hearing this, Professor X, his movements somewhat stiff, turned his head from his wheelchair and looked at Hawke.

But just as he was about to speak...

Hawke made a shushing gesture, then said to Professor X, "Don't talk, Charles. Look, the Earth is starting to be destroyed."

Professor X instinctively turned his head to look in the direction of Earth.

Wanda, who was playing her violin nearby, watched this scene, shook her head and smiled helplessly, and said to her violin, "Now you know how serious your father's sense of humor is."

Qin nodded in agreement, but did not speak, her gaze fixed on the distant blue planet.

Hawke then turned to look at Wanda, who had spoken.

Wanda looked up, following Hawke's gaze.

Eyes facing each other.

Hawke smiled slightly, which made Wanda roll her eyes, and then he turned his gaze to Earth.

He doesn't care if the Earth is destroyed.

He was concerned with his own god of order.

Thiam is about to be born!
The moment the Phoenix Fire began to engulf the Earth, the first to react were not the humans on Earth, but the earthquake monitoring stations built by humans.

Almost simultaneously, on the infrared charts of 5,326 earthquake monitoring stations around the world, the baseline running through the center of the instrument jumped upwards in the same millisecond, as if the heart of the entire Earth had suddenly pounded.

At the same time, the Earth's magnetic field also collapsed.

Pigeons, sea turtles, and migrating monarch butterflies around the world all lost their way at the same time.

They swirled on the ground and drew irregular circles in the air. The aurora borealis in Norway also broke out without a solar storm, but instead of the usual green curtain, it was a dark gold that had never been recorded before, like molten bronze flowing across the sky.

But if anyone has ever seen this aurora in Quantico or New York City, they will definitely recognize it.

This dark golden-red light is the color of adamantium.

All of this happened so fast that before humanity could even react, change had already struck again.

The central Sahara Desert begins to rise, and the dunes slide down in all directions like the receding tide, exposing most of the rock layers that humans have never seen before.

It wasn't naturally formed granite or basalt, but a metal with a golden luster, like the dark golden aurora shimmering over Norway at this moment, its surface covered with geometric patterns, resembling some kind of giant circuit board.

The patterns flow with an orange-red light that symbolizes life, like lava, but without radiating heat.

But this is not the end, but the beginning.

Because at the same time, not only the Sahara Desert, but also the Siberian Plain, the interior of Australia, the depths of the Amazon rainforest, and under the Antarctic ice sheet, under the Glenling Island ice sheet, and at the very center of the Pacific Ocean, seven points formed a perfect spherical fulcrum covering the entire Earth.

The Pacific Ocean began to boil—not in a localized way, but across an area equivalent to the size of the North American continent. A massive column of steam instantly rose into the stratosphere, triggering a chain reaction of storms worldwide.

The torrential rain began to wash over the continents, but this rain was not cold; rather, it was warm, with a salty taste and a hint of metal.

next second.

There was no warning.

A hand bursts forth from the earth, emerging from the permafrost zone of Siberia. The 5,000 square kilometers of permafrost rises and cracks upwards like a fragile eggshell, and what emerges from the cracks is not rock or magma, but a finger covered with starlight-like material.

Just one finger is taller than Mount Everest.

This hand, emerging from the Earth's interior like a cracked eggshell, began to bend. The stress generated by this bending directly tore apart the Eurasian Plate, triggering a super earthquake that surpassed anything ever recorded in human history.

The shockwaves encircled the Earth, and almost instantly, all existing man-made structures suffered devastating destruction.

at the same time.

The seawater in the center of the Pacific Ocean has been completely displaced in the boiling water.

The seabed was exposed, revealing the forehead of the god Thiam.

The eye on Thiam's forehead opened.

It's not one eye, nor two, but three pairs, a total of six eyes.

at this time.

Hawk's voice appeared in the ears of the god Thiam.

"It's time for them to be born. Sometimes, death is a blessing, and instant death is an even greater blessing. Now is the time. Don't let them suffer."

"Understood, Lord God."

Upon hearing this, the god Thiam did not hesitate.

Get up!

As the god Thiam rose to his feet, Hawke and the others in space saw that the entire surface of the Earth was covered with glowing cracks, resembling an egg about to hatch.

The eggshell, which is the earth's crust, begins to peel away in pieces.

It didn't break into small pieces; rather, the entire continental plate warped and peeled off, much like mud at the bottom of a dried-up lake.

The Asian continent split apart from its center.

The Himalayas are divided in two.

Europe is like a cracked cookie.

In Africa, it folds in half at the ridgeline.

The ocean poured into the newly exposed mantle, instantly vaporizing into a superstorm, and then the Earth cracked open like an egg.

At the heart of this shattered planet, the god Thiam stretched out his entire body.

The god Thiam stands in the universe, while the earth is broken into pieces, swirling around Thiam.

Upon witnessing this scene, Professor X almost uncontrollably roared in anger.

"No!"

"..."

Hawke, who was admiring the heroic figure of his new god, the God of Order, Thiam, was suddenly struck by Professor X's roar. He raised an eyebrow and looked at Professor X, who was sitting in a wheelchair with tears in his eyes: "See, destruction is that simple."

The god Thiam, shining with the light of six tubes, drifted from the ruins of Earth to Hawke's presence, and then knelt on one knee before Hawke in the cosmos.

"Lord God."

"Thiam".

Hawke floated up to the sky above Thiam, whose size seemed enormous even in the universe. He stretched out his right hand and pressed it against Thiam's equally enormous forehead. His voice was no longer cold—no, it was still cold, but it carried a sacred and solemn quality.

"In the name of Hawk Phoenix, I bestow upon you, Thiam, as my God of Order, to govern my cosmic time and maintain its stability."

The moment the words were spoken.

The golden-red phoenix reappeared behind Hawke, spread its wings, let out a cry, and then pounced on the god Thiam with lightning speed.

After the phoenix, everything can be burned.

Even the god Thiam was no exception.

The endless phoenix fire instantly enveloped the god Tiam, but this phoenix fire was not refining the god Tiam, but rather accepting him.

soon.

The Phoenix Flame disappeared.

The god Thiam emerged from the flames once more. Although he looked exactly the same as before, upon closer inspection, there was an inexplicable change in his appearance.

Simply put.

At this moment, the god Tiam is no longer the Tiam of the Celestials, but rather the subordinate god of Hawk, the god of order Tiam.

The god Thiam is already starting to resemble Hawk.

Hawke felt a sense of joy at that moment.

He looked at the god Tiam, who was slowly rising in front of him, and was about to speak when a voice came from the other side.

"I'm still wondering when you'll realize that time not only needs to be created, but also needs to be maintained."
