194. Showdown
"In the future, when you enter and leave the dimensional world, you have to be careful, it is not a good thing to be targeted by Dormammu." The ancient one wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and breathed deeply.
That wave of violent energy impact, so that she was also injured by the shock, with the dark dimension as the support, Dormammu is almost invincible and powerful, unless the other party rashly enters the material world, can the Supreme Mage find a chance.
Sean shrugged his shoulders indifferently, he had already provoked the Hell Lord Mephisto, and now he was targeted by the ruler of the dark dimension, anyway, he had a lot of debts, and he might have to meet in the future, and then settle the general account.
Sooner or later, he will catch up with these veteran powerhouses and stand on top of the world.
The young man's eyes glanced at the Supreme Mage, and he smiled playfully, "When the sky falls, there are Kama Taj and the temple on top. ”
Gu Yi smiled and shook his head, removing the mirror space that shrouded her and Sean, the eldest disciple Mordo waited outside, his dark face was full of worry, obviously the abnormal movement just now made the entire Kama Taj sense, the dark energy that shook the barrier of the material world triggered the layers of enchantments in this holy land, causing a series of chain reactions, and even the three temples in New York, London and Hong Kong launched a warning against each other, almost thinking that it was a precursor to a large-scale invasion of alien creatures.
"Are you alright?" Mordo asked.
As a personal disciple of the Supreme Mage, he knew that the ruler of the dark dimension was not an easy role to deal with, the other party dragged many life planets into the dark dimension, assimilated them into a part of his own body, and the unimaginably huge body covered the infinite dimensional world, this terrifying existence beyond human cognition, almost impossible to kill, impossible to eliminate, even the previous Supreme Mage Agomodha, could only build a strong and strong defense line, barely resisting Dormammu from the material world.
This is not the first time that the Supreme Mage and Dormammu have fought each other, a long time ago, the Ancient One found a way to absorb the energy of the dark dimension from the Book of Cagliostro, and after continuous deduction and improvement, he jumped out of the loopholes in the rules of the contract, avoiding the sight of the ruler of the dark dimension, and extracting huge energy to maintain the eternal decay of the life form.
This kind of action is tantamount to sneaking into Dormammu's backyard and wantonly stealing his treasures, which naturally arouses the monstrous anger of the other party.
"I think that's the end of the temptation on both sides."
When the Ancient One sent Mordo away, Sean got up and stood, he looked down at the Supreme Mage who was kneeling on the ground, and said softly, "I will leave Kama Taj in a while, and before that I will solve Mephisto's problem for you." ”
"You guessed it?" Gu Yi was silent for a moment, then raised his eyes and asked.
"Of course. I'm not arrogant enough to think that I'd be able to get Kama Taj's master, the most powerful mage in the world, to take the risk of rushing into the trap set by Dormammu to bring me out of the dimensional world. There was a hint of sarcasm on the young man's lips, "It's normal for us to be wary of each other, even though you let me go in and out of the library freely, and you didn't hesitate to answer my questions...... But that doesn't hide that you're always wary of me. ”
"And I can't really believe that the great Supreme Mage will favor me, just like you just faced Dormammu, you gave me peace of mind, as long as I joined forces with the ruler of the dark dimension, I could keep you there forever - all this is of course an illusion, you deliberately created this illusion! Do you need to pay such a big price to validate your mind? ”
In the face of Sean's questioning, Gu Yi was still indifferent, and replied softly: "It's all worth it." ”
Even if she rashly confronted Dormammu, the Supreme Mage still did not regret her decision, her time was approaching, and she was about to leave this world, and before that, there would be a qualified successor who would take over the inheritance and mission from her hands.
The young man in front of her was the result of her deliberate indulgence, but even from the fragments of the future, there was no trace of the other party, which made Gu Yi feel worried, she didn't know if what she did was right. Sean Siperth, the man of unpredictable origin, will be the biggest variable in the future.
No one can predict the future with complete accuracy, not even the Supreme Mage with the Eye of Agaroda can only glimpse half a claw from it. The future is changing all the time, and the "cause" that is difficult to calculate leads to the final "effect".
So the Ancient One needed an answer.
If Sean takes the opportunity to make a move while she and Dormammu are confronting, then the other party will be left in the dark dimension forever. It was a test and a dangerous trap, but it was discovered and exposed by this young man.
"You think you've got the win, if I get in touch with Dormammum in advance, great Supreme Mage, can you still be so calm? Whatever the reason, it is the most stupid decision to rush into the hands of someone else. ”
"At least I got it right." Gu Yi smiled at the corner of his mouth, looked at Sean's indifferent eyes, and said softly: "I am your only constraint in the material world, as long as you leave me in the dark dimension, even Kama Taj and the Three Great Temples will not create a superfluous threat to you." ”
The young man shook his head, he and the Supreme Mage had their own thoughts, and the seemingly friendly cooperation between the two sides at the moment was actually just using each other. The Ancient One saw him as one of the variables of the future, and Sean didn't want to clash with the world's most powerful mage, which didn't do any good.
Frankly speaking, the role of the Ancient One in this world can be said to be more important than anyone else, once the Supreme Mage is lost, the stable balance between the dark dimension and the material world will be easily broken, and at that time, heaven and hell, as well as Dormammu, who is eyeing each other, will all come out like wild dogs robbing food.
On the surface, S.H.I.E.L.D. and the Avengers ensure that the planet is not violated, while secretly, the Supreme Mage maintains the basic order of the material world.
"Sean Siperth, why do you hesitate to show your inner moral bottom line when you don't care about showing your darkness and selfish desires?" Gu Yi looked at the young man who was about to walk out of the main hall and couldn't help but ask loudly.
"Do you know, great Supreme Mage, most of the human beings in the world, they will fear the most vicious and violent people, the insane madmen, the inhuman executioners, but the only one who will not be afraid - the good people?" Sean paused and didn't look back, "Don't show the moral bottom line to others casually, then they will gain an inch and lose their sense of awe." ”
"So I want to be the sun of this world, not the lighthouse of all mankind."
The tall figure defied the light and strode out of the Kama Taj Palace, leaving the ancient one kneeling in place, his brows furrowed and thoughtful.
"What arrogance...... she said with a slight smile as she lowered her head.
The afterglow of the setting sun cast through the window lattice, gilding the Supreme Mage, who was draped in white robes and kneeling on the ground, with a layer of golden light, like an eternal silhouette.
