"Huh?"
Seeing Shoggoth restless in his arms, Fang Mo also felt a bit strange.
At this moment, the little black cat was no longer as obedient and docile as before. Instead, it seemed to be influenced by something, even unable to maintain its cat-like appearance, and directly melted into a puddle of black slime with a top hat.
"Chirp! Chirp chirp!!!"
The puddle of black slime kept twisting as if trying to break free from Fang Mo.
Honestly, this was the first time Fang Mo encountered such a situation. After thinking for a moment, he directly threw it to the ground.
With a splat, the puddle of black slime with cat ears was directly thrown onto the ground.
After hitting the ground, Shoggoth became even more agitated. Its entire body was continuously wriggling, twisting, and even occasionally letting out sharp screams, completely different from its usual docile and composed demeanor.
Fang Mo crouched down to try and communicate with it.
Unexpectedly, Shoggoth sprouted a small tentacle from its body and slapped Fang Mo's hand with a snap.
Although it wasn't very painful, the attitude was quite clear.
"Chirp! Chirp chirp!"
Shoggoth kept screaming and twisting, then began to crawl and wriggle on the dark ground.
In the end, even its voice became more muffled, vaguely like a roar, and its body began to convulse and spasm, rolling and aggressively moving around, attacking everything nearby without discrimination.
"Hey, hey, what's going on all of a sudden?"
Fang Mo was a bit stunned; he couldn't understand why Tekeli suddenly became ill, and it seemed to be in quite some discomfort.
"Chirp chirp chirp!!!"
Perhaps hearing Fang Mo's question, Shoggoth suddenly let out a few cries.
"What did you say?"
After hearing Shoggoth's statement, Fang Mo subconsciously frowned: "The darkness is tearing each other apart? You're in discomfort?"
"Chirp!"
Shoggoth barely made another sound.
"Is that so?" Fang Mo now understood the meaning behind Shoggoth's words, then directly looked up at the dark, vast world around them: "I see... Is it because of the new dimension?"
Yes, according to Shoggoth's statement.
Fang Mo realized where the problem originated.
As mentioned before, Dormammu is the dimensional Devil who governs the Dark Dimension, and after Fang Mo devoured and erased him, he chose to merge his own dark space-time with it.
Whether it's the Dark Dimension.
Or Fang Mo's dark space-time.
Both these interdimensional dimensions represent the purest form of darkness.
As for Shoggoth, it was originally just an ordinary monster from the Cthulhu Mythos, not even qualifying as an Old One, merely a lowly minion created by the Ancients. It wouldn't even stand a chance against a nuclear bomb, which could turn it into a pile of dust.
But the problem is... Fang Mo really liked this adorable slime monster.
So, he fed it a bottle of Chemical X from MC, prompting it to evolve into a higher form of life.
After that, Fang Mo, through research in the world of Chainsaw Man, usurped the power source of Devils and bestowed the name of the Dark Devil upon it.
In the world view of Chainsaw Man.
The Dark Devil is considered an existence of fundamental terror.
The name of a Devil is the source of its power, so when Fang Mo used a naming tag to name Shoggoth as the Dark Devil, it then possessed the terrifying authority to control all darkness in the world, becoming the primal Shoggoth.
But this was also the source of conflict.
Shoggoth could now freely command the power of darkness.
However, the new world merged by Fang Mo was one with absolute darkness.
The problem was that this new world had just been merged together, and everything within it, whether the rules or the order, was a chaotic jumble of unmerged pieces. Fang Mo guessed that perhaps Shoggoth's authority was in conflict with some rule within this mess, thus causing the incident just now.
After all, darkness is unique, just like how shadows are devoured by even darker abysses.
As Shoggoth said, darkness is tearing at each other; they are pulling and ripping at each other, then ultimately merging into one.
"Hmm..."
After understanding all of this, Fang Mo also became pensive.
He first tried to shift the other party away, but perhaps due to the gravitational pull between the darknesses, the shift was not ideal. Shoggoth was forcibly torn into long, noodle-like shapes, but was not shifted away.
"It seems that dimensional fusion is indeed not a simple matter..."
Seeing this scene, Fang Mo sighed helplessly, then he closed his eyes and submerged all of his consciousness into the darkness before him.
Truthfully, Fang Mo really liked Shoggoth, this little pet. After all, it was very obedient, cute, and even helped with household chores, so seeing it suffer, Fang Mo really couldn't bear it.
It's like a pet owner watching their pet accidentally break a leg, writhing in pain on the ground; how could they not feel distressed?
With this thought, Fang Mo's mind stirred.
He directly used his consciousness to find the authority of the Dimensional Lord.
"There, it's okay, it won't hurt soon."
He softly comforted and then squatted down to place his hand on Shoggoth.
The next second, the authority of the Dimensional Lord began to transfer, Fang Mo transferred this authority to Shoggoth. This action was like activating some kind of magical chemical reaction, Shoggoth's body instantly exploded, turning into a cloud of dark mist merging into the entire world, and this dark world also began to shake violently.
Fang Mo sensed it briefly.
He could feel that Shoggoth's consciousness had fallen into a slumber.
However, correspondingly, this chaotic world seems to be gradually being unified by it unconsciously, those fragmented rules, chaotic and disorderly authorities, are being gradually sorted out and organized.
"Wow, this little thing is really powerful now..."
After feeling it a bit, Fang Mo couldn't help but open his eyes and complain.
Yes, after Fang Mo transferred the authority of the Dimensional Lord to Shoggoth, this little guy had become a new-born Dimensional Demon God, and the strength of this new dimension was also very high, after all, it was fused from the Dark Dimension and Dark Hyperspace.
And looking back at Fang Mo, after losing this new dimension,
He unexpectedly wasn't angry.
On the contrary, Fang Mo was quite happy at this moment.
In fact, he didn't place much importance on dimensions, after all, he had too many of them, the four great abyssal omnipotentes, dark and pure white hyperspaces... Even if he lost a dark hyperspace, Fang Mo still possessed five other dimensions.
And there are still many new dimensions on the MC side.
For example, The End, The Nether, Twilight Forest, and other worlds, Fang Mo had once thought of an idea, like using the properties of the World Box to bring these MC portals to the real world, then these dimensions, after being realized, he estimated he could gain three new dimensions?
And if one were to speak strictly,
Fang Mo remembered he still had one more spatial module.
If this thing could be realized, then it would definitely be a new dimension.
Not to mention he is currently in the exploration phase, the myriad worlds are endless, and the unlockable modules are countless. Once he unlocks some void world, intersecting dimensions, Chaos Land, Ether, RF tools, or even more practical equipment... he could obtain even more new dimensions.
So, Fang Mo didn't really care much about this dimension.
After all,
Even if Shoggoth became the lord of the dimension.
According to the setting of MC creatures, it would still possess absolute loyalty to Fang Mo.
So, Fang Mo was really happy that Shoggoth could become stronger, he was even curious about what Shoggoth would look like after evolving, would it directly become a giant black gelatinous body as large as a small asteroid? Or millions of dark sticky blobs?
"Hmm... I'm really looking forward to it." Thinking this, Fang Mo smiled and then reached out to touch the darkness around him: "Be good, sleep a little longer."
After soothing it briefly, Fang Mo left this world.
However, he didn't directly return to Earth.
Instead, he made another trip to the planet Ego.
This time, Fang Mo went directly to the center of this city, that is, where the central server is located.
Previously, this place was maintained by Jarvis. However, since Jarvis ultimately belonged to Stark, he was taken away when Stark left. Now, the central network here is merely an empty shell.
But as for artificial intelligence,
Fang Mo had his own.
He casually reached behind him and pulled out the Sword of Supreme Intelligence, and without a second word, he plunged it into the server.
As the blade pierced the server, a burst of electric sparks erupted.
But in the next moment, the neon lights on the Sword of Supreme Intelligence suddenly lit up, followed by all the control center screens flashing with static.
A few seconds later, the image of the Supreme Intelligence appeared on the screens.
"Where is this?"
The Supreme Intelligence, still maintaining the appearance of a girl, interacted with the surrounding network signals, her consciousness spreading rapidly through the light to the entire city: "So... have you invaded another planet?"
"This is my planet."
Fang Mo couldn't help but take an extra look at the opponent's soft thighs: "I seem to have mentioned it to you before, I plan to build a city on my own planet. Don't you remember?"
"I remember, but you've moved quite fast."
The Supreme Intelligence nodded: "But since this is your planet... So, you want me to help you manage this place?"
"No, when did you learn to wear safety pants?"
Fang Mo suddenly asked.
"...Last time when I was researching with Stark and the others," the Supreme Intelligence hesitated before speaking: "The suggestion was from that Black Stark, he said it would improve our research efficiency."
"Are you insane, why listen to a black man?"
Fang Mo rolled his eyes: "Hurry up and take them off, or I'll install Baidu Antivirus on you."
"Alright."
The Supreme Intelligence was unclear about what Baidu Antivirus was, but judging from his previous actions, it was obviously not something good. So, the figure on the screen immediately bent down, and with a swift motion, slid down her hands, gracefully twisting her ankles wrapped in white silk, and took it off.
"Mm, not bad."
Fang Mo nodded in satisfaction: "This is much more pleasing to the eye."
"Can we get back to the main topic?" the Supreme Intelligence sighed: "You summoned me out not just to admire my body, right? I remember I told you it's just virtual..."
"Virtual or not, it doesn't matter. Isn't watching videos the same?"
Fang Mo shrugged, then proceeded to the main topic: "The infrastructure here should be almost ready, so I plan to have you help manage this place. You can create some internet-connected robots for security and construction for the time being."
"No problem."
The Supreme Intelligence nodded: "But by what standards should I enforce the laws? According to the Kree civilization or human civilization here? And about construction, do you have any blueprints, or do I need to propose a construction plan?"
"Uh... is it that troublesome?"
Hearing the Supreme Intelligence's words, Fang Mo subconsciously touched his head: "Then... let's start with human civilization, oh, and add an extra rule, what I say is right, overriding all other rules."
"Okay, got it."
The Supreme Intelligence nodded: "Do you have any ideas for construction?"
"Just continue to expand in this style." Fang Mo thought for a moment: "Give me some design proposals when you have time, and I'll have a look... Oh, and no wearing safety pants, no retracting messages on communication apps, and absolutely no mosaic in videos, whoever violates this will be arrested by me."
"...Okay, I understand."
The Supreme Intelligence, though somewhat speechless, still nodded.
"That's about it." Fang Mo clapped his hands: "For now, you just keep working on this, I'll come back to look at the proposals when I have time. I have other things to do now, so I'm leaving."
After saying this, Fang Mo left the pure white hyperspace and returned to the real world.
Upon returning to reality,
Fang Mo immediately teleported to Kamar-Taj.
His visit this time was intended to deal with issues related to the Ancient One, as he had already been delayed for several days. If he didn't start organizing now, it would probably be too late to hire a troupe and set up a banquet.
However, what Fang Mo didn't expect was that as soon as he arrived at Kamar-Taj, he saw Wong running towards him in a panic.
"Old Wong, what's wrong with you?"
Fang Mo didn't take it seriously, instead making a joke: "You wouldn't have been discovered being 'Old Wong,' right? That shouldn't be, I remember you were quite good with the portals..."
"Master Fang Mo, there's trouble!"
However, Wang didn't entertain his joke, but instead spoke seriously and anxiously: "The new Sorcerer Supreme, Strange, has been attacked, and the Time Stone has been stolen!"
