Chapter 197: The Man
In the moment when the three energies collided, the entire space suddenly fell into an eerie stillness. The next moment the romance was first released, the entity of the timeline instantly dissolved into fragments, and the first one disappeared, leaving only the aftermath of a scream. Then, the orange chaotic space began to crumble. Centered on the location of the great collision of the three energies, a terrifying vortex appeared. The vortex spun faster and faster, faster and faster, engulfing the entire space in a matter of moments. Grant, who was nestled in the corner, was swept into it before he could even react.
Then, the vortex seemed to swallow itself too. Time energy, space energy, bright red energy, chaotic space, grant, timeline entities, all disappeared without a trace.
After the collapse of the chaotic space, this place returned to its original calm. Or the Himalayas, or a paradise for magicians. The weirdest thing is that on the stone seat of the hall, the ancient one is sitting upright, as if nothing has happened. The only change is that the traces of Grant's arrival here have been erased, completely.
The energy fluctuations here are not insignificant, but after all, they occur in the sub-body of the world, so they don't attract much attention from the strongest beings in the universe. Of course, there is one exception - the previous timeline concretizes the image of himself, who is also the owner of the Time Stone, Thanos.
Witnessing such a scene through time and space, Thanos, who was sitting on the floating throne, was also a little dumbfounded. He originally intended to save the interesting earthling from one of the projectors in the timeline, but he didn't expect that it would cause an accident. Now that interesting earthling, I don't know what point in time or which space I have landed in.
"The little guy is desperate with one of the thousands of projections in the timeline, it's so self-loving."
Having existed for a long time as one of the strongest beings in the universe, Thanos has clearly forgotten how weak he felt when he was a child. He couldn't even understand what it meant to be in a shipwreck, and what it meant to fight against the water.
"It seems that he has gotten some benefits from the space gem, interesting, interesting." The surrounding area of ten light-years was empty, but Thanos continued to mumble to himself, "Trapped in the mezzanine of time and space, although you may not necessarily die, you may be trapped in it forever." Wouldn't that be too boring! Perhaps, I can help him. ”
There is a plan. Thanos immediately took action. The bright red gem in his left hand projected a stream of energy onto the orange gem in his other hand, and Thanos' gaze began to roam through the orange gem in the long river of time. I don't know how long it took before he withdrew his gaze. The right hand holding the orange gem swiped casually in front of him. Bright red energy flashed, and a gap appeared out of thin air in the otherwise plain space in front of him.
It felt like it was being stretched out.
Through that gap, Thanos saw Grant. At that moment, Grant, who lost consciousness, constantly "flashed". And under the influence of the energy of time, his beard suddenly turned white. Suddenly, it became green again. One moment it is still dry and thin skin, and the next moment it may shrink into a baby waiting to be fed. But none of this was taken to Thanos' heart.
"So, what kind of return ritual should I arrange for this toy?"
Speaking of this, Thanos closed his eyes and thought. I don't know how long it took for him to notice.
"That's it, put you next to your old acquaintance." A strange smile appeared on his face, and Thanos almost couldn't hold back his laughter, "I'm really looking forward to the expressions on the faces of those earthlings, it will definitely be funny!" ”
As he spoke, he once again harnessed the energy of the Power Gem and the Time Gem. A spatial passage was forcibly opened. On the other side of the passage is an aqua-blue planet, which is Earth. And it's not a world subbody at some point in time, it's a real Earth!
He then wrapped Grant in a surge of energy and threw it out. As for the destination - don't be surprised, it's the Earth's Arctic glacier, next to a supermassive aircraft that has been frozen for a long time! When...... It's too easy for Thanos, who has the Time Stone, to adjust. At that moment on Earth, there was still a guy wearing the uniform of the Star-Spangled Banner lying in the super-huge flying machine that had been frozen for a long time!
Except for Thanos himself, no one knows what kind of surprise he has in store for the future S.H.I.E.L.D. Of course. Even Thanos can't count everything. Some people may not be as strong as him, but they can still change some things.
Earth, the Himalayas, a secluded paradise in the days of magicians. Grant's "old version of the Ancient One" sits on a stone pedestal. In addition to this contemporary supreme magician, there is only his chief disciple and his heir, Stephen Strange.
Not long after 2012, it's 2013.
"Teacher, the world did change around 1962." Strange had just cast a time spell and was now reporting the results to the Ancient One. "However, the timestamp you gave to that person didn't respond."
Hearing this, although Gu Yi's face was still expressionless, if he paid close attention, he could find that the corners of his mouth twitched.
"Stephen, do you know what that means?"
"Yes, Teacher."
Not to mention anything else, Strange has learned 100% from his teacher for facial paralysis alone, and even has the meaning of being blue. I saw him look at his teacher and said in an indifferent tone: "This means that after that person repaired that timeline according to our plan, he unfortunately encountered some accident and died. According to the disciple, this accident is likely to be ......"
"Probably a projection of the timeline." robbed his apprentice, Gu Yi seemed to be unconscious, but instead spit out a breath of turbidity, "But I feel that he is not dead yet, just ......"
After a "just", the ancient one stopped. Strange in the audience didn't mean to speak, so the whole hall fell into an oppressive silence. It took a long, long time for the Ancient One to break it.
"Two of the three points in time have already been done, and we can't give up halfway. Well, the succession ceremony will begin tomorrow. After handing over the title of Supreme Magician to you, I will personally go to the third point in time, by the way......"
Hearing this, Strange finally did not calm down. He hurriedly spoke: "But, the teacher ......"
Then he was interrupted again by his own teacher.
"There is no 'but'. You know this day is coming. Gu Yi looked at his successor with a serious face, "Although this is different from the original plan, the situation is different now." It would be more appropriate for me to go back to the third point in time than for you. ”
Next, what Gu Yi said was a bit similar to that of the ancient king to the minister Tuogu. Well, it's more like a drama like "I need you to promise me one thing before I die".
"I've spent my life thinking I'm running around to preserve human civilization, but I haven't done much good. I don't want you to be like me in the future. Here's a word of caution, a reflection on me and a summary of my life's experience: if you encounter something that you can't decide about, don't look to the future for answers, but ask your heart. Okay, you go back and get ready for tomorrow! ”
(For the sake of the plot, put the Time Stone in Thanos' hand...... In other words, this book may not be more to the moment when the Time Gem appeared in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Although there are still a lot of plots to write, who knows which movie the Time Gem will come out in - Team America 3 in 16, Doctor Strange? Thor 3 in 17? 18 years of Avengers 3 or Black Panther? Or is it later? Thor 3 seems to be the most likely, but that's more than two years later...... (To be continued.) )
