Multiverse of Marvel

Chapter 758: The void

Shang Chi was already ready with his rings after he passed through the waterfall. From inside the cave he could already see the dead animals that he loved roaming about. His rings were already shining on both his arms with an orange color light.

But he stopped in his tracks as he saw John and Strange floating high in the air with 2 huge creatures being held down by what looked like transparent chains and spears. This would have looked cool in any other time but not today.

Meanwhile, Goku was done with the massacre of the whole population of the soul eaters and even not leaving the ones who were trying to escape from the place they walked in he flew down to the place where his family just arrived nearby the floating John and Strange.

John and Strange still hadn't opened their mouths to speak. Even if Strange hadn't seen the family with his own eyes before, he had seen Goku and Xu. Xu' rings were under the supervision of Kamar Taj after he became the Asgardian God. Plus, he had been briefed by John before about Xu.

Thus he knew that this moment from the family was tragic and it was better to stay silent.

Goku floated down slowly with tears in his eyes and hugged his mother. It was all rage as he killed the soul eaters but now there was sadness. He was feeling immense sadness. The fact that Goku had become a Super Saiyan didn't invoke any feeling of surprise among the feelings in the family.

His mother could already feel from the eyes of Goku that her sister and her people from the village were dead. There was nothing that could be done now. She, like Goku, was devastated. They both cried together and her other two children joined her and hugged the mother.

Xu just stood there with a stoic expression but his eyes too were a little wet. He had seen many deaths in his life and that included his subordinates too but her family was the closest family he had and now all were dead. Like Goku he too felt anger and was almost ready to pinch at the body of these creatures that had invaded this sacred land.

"Shenron is dead too, Mom!!" Goku said. His words made the others more sad but there was nothing to be done.

After almost 15 minutes of crying and holding on to the bodies of Jiang Nan and Shenron, all of them wiped off their tears. Even Xu wiped the last bit of water in his eyes with his elbow. Goku and Shang-Chi had started walking towards the last bodies of the soul eaters. They were still pinned down by Strange and they had been constantly roaring loudly. They could feel that their end was near.

They had seen the horror that these people had killed their kind and now they were on the other side of the bridge. But instead of fear, all they showed was hatred for the other kind.

"We didn't expect your kind to have such strong warriors."

Those words rang on the minds of all that was nearby. This surprised John and others. In the movie, Xu Wenwu was seduced by the telepathic words of the monsters and thus he led an expedition to bring the door down. John had always thought that the creatures weren't smart enough to talk. They might be intelligent but not enough but now it seemed that he was wrong.

These savages did know how to talk.

"And for your sacrilege I will kill you in the most cruel way possible. You killed my family and for this there is a special torture that I will inflict upon you." Shang-Chi said as the rings flew away from his hands and had started rotating around him as he was going to inflict some pain before killing these beasts. The soul eaters didn't ask for mercy.

But it was Strange who came down and stopped the first attack of Shang-Chi. Shang-Chi seeing the famous Doctor Strange standing between him and the soul eaters made him more angry.

"Doctor Strange, I know you are a respected member of the Avengers and a magician who is on par with Dr. Fate, but you better not stop us in this crusade or else me and my brother here will not hold back."

"Calm down, Shang-Chi. We stopped you not because to stop from getting revenge but to get more answers. They came through the doorway and from what we can tell, the other side of the door is the Void. That means the creatures came from the void. The void had been a dangerous place recently due to the break of the Wall. If these creatures really came from the Wall, then we would need to investigate who sent them and what did they want." John explained the reason of why Strange had stopped him before.
