Qiao Lu looked at the corpse of the Ancient One on the operating table, and then glanced at the pendant around Doctor Strange's neck, the Eye of Agomoto, which contained the Time Gem.

"Can't you save her?" Qiao Lu asked.

Doctor Strange shook his head: "In order to prolong her life, she has broken the taboo and drawn energy from the dark dimension. If I used time magic to save her, I would be making the same mistake, and the Ancient One wouldn't allow me to do so. ”

"And what are you going to do with Dormammu?"

"I don't know, no one can know. The Ancient One can only guarantee that Dormammu will not be able to devour the earth and will not be able to do anything to Dormammu anymore. ”

Dormammu is the master of the dark dimension, and the only advantage that Doctor Strange has is that Dormammu can only exert his full strength in the dark dimension, and the material universe is not his home field.

So when Dormammu first came to Earth, Doctor Strange still had the opportunity to use the Time Stone to create an infinite loop to trap him, and negotiate conditions until Dormammu succumbs.

Just when Jolu thought that Dormammu would be repelled in the same way this time, Doctor Strange suddenly spoke:

"And this time, I'm afraid we're going to face more than just Dormammu."

Qiao Lu suddenly frowned: "What do you mean?" ”

"If it were only Dormammu, I would have had a chance to trap him. But this time he has an unexpected ally, who is also trying to make darkness swallow the entire universe. ”

This made Qiao Lu full of ominous premonitions, could it be that the change in the timeline made two things that should not have collided together now merged into a bigger crisis?

"Are you talking about, dark elves?"

The Dark Elves are Asgard's nemesis, living in the Nine Kingdoms of Vat Alheim, and their purpose is to plunge the entire universe into darkness, but Jolu did not think to associate this with Dormammu.

Doctor Strange continued, "It won't be long before there will be a convergence of celestial bodies on Earth. At that time, the nine kingdoms will be connected. I have foreseen that the Dark Elves will use the Reality Gem to flood the universe with dark matter, and Dormammu will take the opportunity to descend. In Dark Matter he was able to wield his full power, and no one could stop him. ”

"Even if it's a Time Stone?"

"Yes."

This is difficult to do, Dormammu, who dominates the entire dark dimension, is undoubtedly an even more terrifying opponent than Thanos, once he has the opportunity to exert all his strength in the dark dimension, it is indeed unstoppable.

The question now is whether the Dark Elves have obtained the Reality Gem and can stop them before the celestial bodies converge.

Just as Qiao Lu and Doctor Strange were discussing countermeasures in the hospital, an unexpected situation happened on the side of the Avengers base.

A rainbow of colorful streamers crashed down on the Avengers base, and it was the light of the rainbow bridge from Asgard.

Everyone thought that Thor had successfully solved the crisis of the Nine Kingdoms and returned safely, but when the light faded, he found a dying Thor on the ground.

He had several black swords stuck in his body, one of which pierced straight into his right eye, making it shocking to believe that he was still alive.

Thor's hammer and storm axe, which Thor had never left his hand, were nowhere to be found, and the armor on his body was shattered, and it was hard to imagine who could beat him like this.

In any case, the Avengers first sent him to the infirmary for treatment, and using the medical technology obtained from the Wandering Earth, they managed to save Thor's life.

However, an enemy that even Thor, who wields a storm axe, cannot fight, there is no doubt that a great threat has been born in the universe.

Qiao Lu immediately learned the news and was quite surprised by it.

He had thought that Thor, the god of thunder who had obtained the storm axahawk, should be able to solve his own troubles, and he was already much stronger than when he was still the god of hammers.

However, Thor still failed, and escaped from death in such a mess, so what is the situation of Asgard now?

"Is this also in your foreknowledge?" Qiao Lu asked Doctor Strange who was close in front of him.

Doctor Strange nodded without saying a word, not knowing what he was thinking.

Seeing that something was wrong with the Avengers, Qiao Lu had no choice but to leave this side and hurried back to the Avengers base.

If Doctor Strange's prophecy is correct, then the key now is in Asgard, who holds the Reality Gem?

By the time Joel returned to the Avengers base, Thor had already regained consciousness. It's just that his whole person is like a deflated ball, and he has completely lost his fighting spirit in the past.

According to his current mental state, even if his injuries are completely healed, he will only gradually become a fat house thunder god.

Qiao Lu hurriedly asked, "What's going on?" ”

Tony shrugged helplessly, "We also want to know, he's been stunned like this for five minutes, and I don't know if he's asleep." ”

"No, no, he's dead." War Machine Rhodes quipped.

Captain America said solemnly: "We tried to treat his injuries, but his current state is not good at all, I really don't know what could make him like this." ”

Just when everyone was concerned about what was going on with Thor, he finally spoke, but only nervously repeated:

“······ Failed······ Failed······ Failed······"

"What the hell failed?" Captain America asked.

This sentence seemed to anger Thor, causing him to suddenly burst into a rage and shout hysterically:

"I failed! Are you satisfied? ”

This made everyone in the Avengers fall silent, with Thor's pride and conceit, he will never admit that he has failed, only that I am not ready.

But this time he was completely overshadowed by defeat, which also shows how deeply this defeat affected him.

"Who beat you?" Qiao Lu asked.

Even if the Dark Elves obtained the Reality Gem, they would not be able to easily defeat Thor, the god of thunder, who wielded the Storm Battle Axe.

Qiao Lu felt more and more that something was wrong, and maybe the timeline changed much more than he imagined.

Then there was a long silence, and Thor's hands trembled in clenched fists, until he realized that he could not escape, and then he spoke slowly:

"Hela, the goddess of death, Odin's eldest daughter and my sister. I can't defeat her, let alone ······"

"What's more?"

"The Dark Elves have obtained the Reality Gem and have made a pact with Hela that death and darkness will rule the Nine Kingdoms. The only thing that can stop them, my father, Odin, the king of the gods, is dead. ”
