Chapter 390: Is the comic world really that important?

Chen Ye's eyes were fixed on Loki's face, filled with a complex mixture of emotions - curiosity, confusion, and even a hint of imperceptible fear.

His silence was not because he had nothing to say, but because the surging thoughts in his heart were like the sea in a storm, difficult to calm down.

He longed to get answers from Loki, all the mysteries about himself, the future, and this world that seemed familiar yet so strange.

"Loki," Chen Ye finally spoke, his voice low and firm, "What exactly do you mean by 'last meeting'? What does my previous life mean?"

"Don't be too nervous. You do not belong to this world, but at the same time you also belong to this world." Loki's ambiguous words left Chen Ye confused.

Chen Ye had a feeling that ever since he stepped into this place, it was as if a big hand was controlling him, as if someone was pushing him forward when he got here.

And when he heard Loki's words, he felt that he had a big secret, which might be solved today.

Loki continued to explain, "In your previous life, your soul did not belong to this world, but in this life, your soul has been printed on this world, which is what you call the Marvel world. In this life, you are a real Marvel person, do you understand?"

"If you don't believe it, there is another proof. That is why you have been to so many multiverses but have not seen your variant. This is because you have always been a special existence."

After hearing this, Chen Ye understood that he was indeed a time traveler, but it had nothing to do with him. He was a time traveler in his previous life, and for some reason he had a second life, and then he was reincarnated in the Marvel world.

But why did Loki know this?

What was Chen Ye like in his previous life? Why doesn't he have any memory of it?

So what about the memories in his mind?

And from what Loki said, he knows that he is in the comic world. Doesn't he care at all?

Loki's laughter echoed in the quiet air. There was a hint of playfulness and depth in that laughter, as if it could see through the essence of all things in the world.

He gently swayed the branches in his hands, and each branch seemed to carry endless stories and possibilities. That was the universe he saw from his unique perspective as the god of time and trickery.

"Comics? Oh, what a narrow definition."

His words were full of disdain, but also full of philosophy.

"In this vast multiverse, who can say for sure what is real and what is unreal?"

“Perhaps, what we think of as reality is nothing more than a series of paintings drawn by beings in a higher dimension, and you are just a character walking in the painting.”

"How can you be sure that the previous universe was not a so-called comic or written by someone else?"

He looked up into the distance, his eyes sparkling with curiosity about the unknown world and a desire to explore.

"How can you be sure that every choice you make, every breath you take, has not already been carefully choreographed by some force? Just like an actor on stage, even if they know the script, they still have to perform according to the predetermined trajectory."

"But it is this uncertainty that gives life its meaning." Loki's tone became gentle and firm.

“Whether this world is real or fake, as long as we perceive it with our hearts and experience it with love, it is real. Because reality or not is nothing but a product of subjective cognition. What the heart desires is the truth.”

He waved the branch in his hand gently, as if controlling the flow of countless timelines.

"Look, these timelines interweave and collide to form our complex and ever-changing world. Although I can see a little bit, I can't fully control it.

Because every living being has its own free will, and their choices will create countless possibilities. "

"The same is true for the timelines I have. When they make new changes, new branches will appear. These are all proofs."

"I am different from Kang. Kang wrote the script himself, and humans can only act according to his script. But I am willing to let humans write their own script."

In fact, Loki doesn't care about the so-called comic world at all. For someone at his level, it doesn't matter whether he is controlled by humans or not.

To other people in the Marvel Universe, he is what people call a "screenwriter."

You know, when he is bored, his greatest pleasure is to arrange scripts for these humans.

Even if you tell these humans that all this is a script, they will not believe it. If the results are good, they will only believe that all this is through their own efforts.

If the result is bad, they will complain about the unfairness of fate. They will not believe that everything is already arranged. They do not believe that the results of all the efforts they have made are already predetermined.

This is human nature.

Take Deadpool as an example. He is a being who can break the fourth wall. Even if he knows that this universe is from a comic book, they still have to live honestly in this universe.

The Deadpools are just struggling for a living, so it would be meaningless even if they knew. The crazier one would just be the murderous Deadpool who started slaughtering the entire Marvel Universe.

How could Loki not know the existence of the murderous Deadpool? Although that extreme murderous Deadpool tried to rewrite everything with violence, it was just a part of the script that had already been set. Every time he resisted, it was just part of the universe's self-correction.

Moreover, he is destined to fail. No matter how many times he tries, there will always be someone to stop him. Even if he succeeds, the entire multiverse will be restarted.

So would it be better to know that you are a character in a comic book?

Loki doesn't think so. Sometimes the less a person knows, the better. He believes that sometimes ignorance is a kind of happiness, which allows people to focus more on the life in front of them and cherish every opportunity to choose.

After hearing Loki's answer, Chen Ye didn't know whether it was true or not. Indeed, who could guarantee that the universe he traveled through would also be the so-called comic world? Even Chen Ye was not sure whether his travel through time was also arranged.

Even the system didn't know whether it was arranged by someone, which made Chen Ye suddenly feel a little at a loss.

If it is really as Loki said, then his system and his so-called friends are also controlled by someone?

Chen Ye doesn't like the feeling of being controlled by others, even if there is a one in ten thousand chance.

But from the current situation, it seems that his appearance and the system were all arranged. To be more precise, they were arranged by him in his previous life.

Chen Ye urgently wanted to know a way to get rid of all this, and he knew Loki might have a way.

“So is there any way to escape?”

"There should be, but I don't know. But you yourself or your past life knows."

"Unfortunately, he failed."
