American comics: I became a god at the beginning, I chose to practice both science and magic

Since death has already appeared, is there a possibility that Sandman is also in this universe?

Even on Earth?

Sandman, whose real identity is "Dream", ranks third in the Endless family, second only to "Death".

The story of the Infinite Family appears in "The Sandman", a work by Vertigo Comics, a subsidiary of DC.

So what is the Endless Family?

They are not gods, demons, or humans, but the physical embodiment of the seven concepts in the world.

They are divided into the following order: Destiny, Death, Dream, Destruction, Desire, Despair and Delirium.

Each member represents two sides of their respective symbolic objects.

"Destiny" symbolizes both uncontrollable fate and unfettered freedom.

He always holds in his hand a "Book of Destiny" handcuffed to his right hand, which records the past, present and future of the DC universe.

It is similar to the history book in "Jackie Chan Adventures", so it can be said that "Destiny" knows everything about the DC universe.

"Death" symbolizes both death and life. There is no death without life, so when life is born, "death" comes with it.

Therefore, according to legend, a person will meet her twice in his life, once when he is born and once when he dies.

But "death" not only symbolizes the death of living beings, but also symbolizes the extinction and end of all things.

There was once a DC universe that was destroyed, and "Death" waited until everything in that universe was reduced to nothingness before leaving that universe, just like closing a door.

"Dream" symbolizes both illusory dreams and reality. Without dreams, there would be no reality.

According to legend, all gods are born in dreams and finally return to dreams, which gives a bit of the feeling of "Brahma's dream".

Therefore, "Dream" knows the origins of most gods in the world.

"Destruction" symbolizes both the destruction of things and the creation of everything. Because he saw through the world, he later chose to leave and not fulfill his duties.

"Desire" symbolizes both desire and hatred, and is the force that maintains the cohesion of all things in the universe.

This guy often uses his abilities to interfere with the duties of other members of the Endless Family and is quite the entertainer.

"Despair" and "Desire" are twins, symbolizing both despair and hope.

She is very ugly and is a person who died once and then came back to life.

"Fanasia", also known as "delirium" or "madness", symbolizes both chaos and order. It is the definer of the rules of all things and the guide of all madness.

This one rules over a chaotic realm filled with many irregular things, and she even knows things that even "fate" does not know.

She used to be the concept of joy, but something happened that turned her into madness.

According to the setting, the Endless Family's status is higher than God and the angels, and the dream world they live in is also higher than God's heaven.

However, status is not equivalent to combat power. The seven conceptual incarnations with such high status are actually something similar to the way of heaven. There are many restrictions on the use of their own power.

Although God cannot come to the mortal world at will, he has many ways to project his power into the human world.

And most importantly, God's combat power ceiling in the DC universe is almost never broken.

However, the Endless Family, whose status is even higher than that of God, is often controlled by humans.

Especially "Dream", who even had the experience of being imprisoned by humans for seventy years.

In the end, he was able to escape by relying on his infinite lifespan to outlast the humans who imprisoned him...

So, in fact, even though the Endless Family is so awesome in its setting, they only have bug-like control within the scope of their own authority and responsibilities, and even God cannot defy this control.

For example, can God die?

"Destiny" has a small notebook that records the past and future destinies of all living beings.

It is clearly stated above that there will also be an end to everything above.

And when God inevitably dies, "Death" from the Endless Family will come to greet Him.

However, in daily life, the Endless Family cannot use their power without scruples.

For example, in the case of "Dream", he cannot kill anyone outside of the dream world unless it is clear that the person poses a threat to the dream.

This is also the reason why he, as such a powerful existence as the incarnation of the concept, could be imprisoned by a few mortals.

But even so, the Infinite Family is the most top and special family in the entire DC multiverse.

In the DC worldview, there are many destroyed universes, but the destruction of those universes cannot shake the survival of the Infinite Family.

As long as there is life in the infinite multiverse, the Endless Family will continue to exist.

Only when the entire DC multiverse returns to nothingness will "death" disappear.

In this world, many races that once claimed to be immortal can only be considered "long-lived" when the time scale is extended.

Only "death" is the true immortality, coexisting with all things in the universe until the end of all destruction.

To put it bluntly, the Grim Reaper is actually a corporate slave who works for her.

Because countless lives are dying and being destroyed every day in countless universes, how can "Death" alone handle it?

So she usually just picks some people she likes to guide them personally, and most of the work is left to the various death gods, but she allows these death gods to "make a profit" from the middle.

The reason she came to see Dane this time was simple. First, she wanted to see the new "newcomer" and build some relationships. Don't doubt it, "death" is indeed very down-to-earth in many cases.

Everyone who has seen "Death" says that she is a caring big sister. Dane has seen it with his own eyes, but he doesn't know whether she knows her heart yet.

But it was quite big, just the type he liked.

Secondly, Death has countless Death gods under his command, but none of them can make as much money as Dane, and she doesn't even get a penny left.

She was also very curious so she came over to take a look, and then she discovered Dane, a little guy who didn't follow the "rules" at all.

but......

"Death" returned to the dream world with a beautiful smile on her face. She thought Dane was very interesting.

Not everyone has the courage to speak to her in that tone after knowing who she is.

At this time, the eldest of the family, "Destiny", came over quietly and said: "Telter, who did you just go to see?"

Death turned around in surprise: "Who have I met? How could you not know?"

Destiny said with a gloomy face, "I just discovered this. The destiny of the universe you visited is very strange."

He opened the Book of Destiny, and the fate of that universe kept appearing and being rewritten, just like a painter drawing on it, and then erasing it and drawing again if he was not satisfied.

And it’s not just the future that is like this, the past and the future are all uncertain!

This is the first time that "Destiny" has seen such a situation!

Assuming that time is a line, even a power beyond time can only create countless time branches at a single point in time, but cannot change the past of the timeline itself because it has already been determined.

For example, the Flash's actions of changing the past can only create countless timelines that intersect with that moment, but he cannot change the fact that his mother died in his own timeline.

But the universe that "Death" just visited is different. It's like an invisible hand is making changes to the timeline itself, changing the color and material of its past, and even changing the weaving method of 4.8!

The past of time is no longer certain, and the future is no longer certain. It has entered a chaotic state.

A certain being is reshaping the reality of this timeline in the way it wishes!

And this happened just now, just before "Death" returned here.

So "Fate" has reason to suspect that "Death" did something to cause this phenomenon.

The reason he's so serious is because Sandman is now trapped in that universe and he has to figure out what's going on.

"Death" immediately reflected that the key point was Dane.

But she didn't understand that Dane was only a demigod and didn't have the ability to affect the super-reality.

After hearing her explanation, Destiny said seriously, "He may not be able to do it now, but what about the future?"

"You gave him something, didn't you?"

Death nodded. "It's just a small gift."

It's normal for a boss to give a welcome gift when meeting a new subordinate, right?

But Fate's face darkened, which was not normal at all!

Chapter 115 Your plans have hit me in the face!

What did "death" give Dane?

Dane figured this out when he returned to the real world. It was also an ability related to death, but it was its opposite.

Dane called it the gift of life. He could now, like "death", inject a new soul into a vibrant body and give this soul new life.

This is actually the ability to send people to reincarnate. He can choose to process or not process a soul and put it into an empty body to let it be reborn.

This "processing" is very intriguing. Dane discovered that he could make some "not too excessive" changes to his soul, and this ability could grow with his practice.

Although at this stage he can only erase the soul's memory and purify it.

But this gave him even more comprehensive powers.

In the past, as the god of death, he could only control the "death" of living beings to a limited extent, but now, he can also control the "life" of living beings.

This may also be what "Death" hopes he can learn, not just to plunder life, but also to give life.

And she was thoughtful enough to bind this ability directly to Dane himself.

This means that even if he loses the power of Shazam, he is still a complete and genuine god of death.

Moreover, after 02 possessed this ability, the scope of his power over the God of Death was no longer limited to the Earth. This was the biggest gain this time.

Besides, Dane had just discovered that this ability had other uses.

He fished out the soul of a demon from his inventory, whose memories he had never delved into before.

I was worried that I would see some bad things in it and that it would make my "heart unstable".

But he had no way to directly absorb the devil's soul power. It was too dirty, so dirty that Dane even wanted to use it as a rag but was disgusted.

But now, with the power given to him by "Death", he can erase the devil's past memories, leaving only the purest energy, which can just make up for some of his losses.

After being imprisoned in darkness for a period of time, the devil was a little confused. Under the light, it seemed to be gradually regaining consciousness.

But Dane immediately used the power he got from "Death" and rubbed the devil's soul a few times.

A wisp of black air peeled off from its soul, and the devil instantly let out a shrill scream.

"Do not--!"

The voice of the soul reached Dane's ears through the mental channel, but he turned a deaf ear and continued to concoct.

The wailing sound rang in his ears for more than ten seconds, and then all sounds disappeared.

Dane looked at the pure white soul in his palm that looked like a steamed bun, and swallowed it into his stomach in one gulp.

The divine power that had been consumed previously was immediately restored visibly.

Ah~ It turns out that being a hero and doing good deeds brings wealth faster! I should do more good deeds in the future!

but...

Dane looked at the green lantern ring on his finger and didn't know what to do with it.

He didn't know where that space was. His magic and divine power were useless, and he could only use the power of his will.

But willpower is really useful. Unlike other colored light energies that have their own emotional colors, willpower does not force a person to have a sense of good and evil. All it takes is determination.

But it's this color that he really needs to get used to.

He took off the ring and put it in his private storage room. This thing might be used as a hidden killer in the future.

After Sinestro's death, his legion's morale immediately plummeted and they were defeated by Mogo.

On the other side of the wormhole, Hal successfully defeated several members of the Yellow Lantern Corps, but the remaining people were not enough to maintain the wormhole, and after a few minutes, it naturally dissipated.

The Koruga fleet, having lost its backup, was in an even more dangerous situation.

Dane immediately passed the news to Gunther.

This little blue man knew how to seize opportunities. Shortly after receiving the news from Dane, he immediately asked Kilowog to take the remaining Green Lanterns to the universe to hunt down the remaining Yellow Lantern Corps and the Koruga Fleet.

By this time, Dane could lie back and watch the show.

Kilowog led his team into the universe, followed by hundreds of surviving Green Lanterns, and reunited with Hal.
