Chapter 9: "Death" Comes
The atmosphere froze instantly, whether it was the Ancient One, Doctor Strange, or even Charles, they all fell into thought because of the words "You never think as important", but the Ancient One had little time, and she still had a lot to do, so she immediately began to explain other things.
"When you first found me, you asked me how exactly I healed Jonathan Panbourne, and the answer was that I didn't save him, it was he himself who introduced the power of the dimension into his body. As he spoke, Koichi looked at the lightning in the distance, shocked by its beauty.
"He walked by magic, and he wasn't cured?" Doctor Strange asked, his eyes wide.
Yes, he can even choose whether to return to his original life or choose to dedicate his life to the world ....... The Ancient One replied affirmatively, and at the same time began to explain that everyone can have a choice, just like Jonathan Pembourne, Doctor Strange can also choose to return to his original life, but the Ancient One hopes that he can choose another path.
"So can I choose to change my hands back to their original form? Can I really go back to my old life?" Doctor Strange asked, not listening to the rest of the Ancient One.
"Of course you can, but the world is in danger of destruction. The Ancient One faced Doctor Strange's question, her expression revealing sadness, because she realized that maybe she was wrong, and even if she could convince Doctor Strange to recognize herself, she might not be able to convince Doctor Strange to follow in her footsteps and prevent the destruction of the world.
"I hate drawing power from the dark dimensions, but you know, sometimes you have to break the rules to save the world. Gu Yi didn't have much time, and her pessimistic thoughts for a moment were abandoned by her, and she continued.
Mordo wouldn't think much of it. Doctor Strange retorted to the Ancient One's words, as if he was going to break the rules, Mordo would definitely stop it, and at that time Kama Taj would be in a civil war, but the Ancient One's expression also calmed down because of Doctor Strange's words.
"Mordo's soul is strong and unyielding, it was forged by his past life, and he needs your flexibility just as you need his help, and you can only deal with Dormammu if you help each other. "Goo first made Doctor Strange understand Mordo, and at the same time had them unite against Dormammu.
"But I'm not ready right now. Doctor Strange understood that the Ancient One was going to hand over all the subsequent events to himself and Mordo, but Doctor Strange, who had only studied magic for a few months, did not have the confidence to deal with an enemy that even the Ancient One could not deal with.
"No one can be ready when disaster strikes, and if the time of disaster strikes is chosen by us, then disaster is not a disaster. Gu Yi said with feeling.
After arranging the affairs of Doctor Strange and Mordo, Gu first held Doctor Strange's hand, felt the impending death, and said his last words, preparing to meet the coming of death.
"Death gives meaning to life, let us know that life is limited, life is short, I have lived for so long, logically speaking, I should have been ready to accept death, but you see me, using magic to infinitely extend my life that should disappear, trying to have more contact with this world for a while, just to see the snow scene......"
Doctor Strange found that his hand was let go of the Ancient One, and then he found that the Ancient One had disappeared, as if it had not existed in the first place, the lightning in the distance had long since disappeared, and the Ancient One's life had come to an end.
"Bang bang. Ancient One's soul body disappeared, but her soul appeared, and then Ancient One heard a sound of clapping hands, Charles looked at Ancient One's soul and said, "Hi, you seem to have forgotten to say goodbye to me." ”
Charles in a death overlord costume stood in front of the soul of the ancient one, and he also had a new copy of the shallow fight in his hand, as long as Charles could transform the ancient one into the god of death, then the ancient one could continue to survive in this world.
"Charles, are you in this state, the Grim Reaper? I didn't expect you to receive my soul. Gu Yi felt the power of Charles's spiritual pressure, and then looked at Charles and said.
"No, I'm here to keep you alive in this world, your plan is complete, the rest is up to them, and I don't really need to watch you die, the perfect ending. Charles looked at the soul of the Ancient One, said with a smile, and then threw the shallow punch in his hand at the soul of the Ancient One.
But just as the shallow fight was about to come into contact with the soul of the ancient one, a skeletal hand suddenly stretched out from the void, casually hit the shallow fight, and then stretched out to the soul of the ancient one.
"I'll go !!!!" In the face of this sudden situation, Charles just swept through a bunch of MMPs in his heart, and then without hesitation, he rushed in front of Gu Yi, to stop this skeleton-like hand from snatching Gu Yi's soul.
Then Charles recognized what is called "mantis arm blocking car", a strong impact on Charles's body, the skeleton in the void exposed its head, a skeleton that looked like a woman, which made Charles feel terrified, that was "death", not Asgard's "goddess of death" Hela, the woman who was locked up by Odin is not worthy of Charles's attention, the skeleton in front of him is actually the "death" of the five Marvel gods that only exist in the comics.
"Don't do that, shouldn't the soul-harvesting thing be done by those guys in hell? Charles's soul was not injured by this attack, but the force also caused Charles to fly out, and then Charles complained while controlling his body and rushing back to the ancient one.
"The bones of the beasts, the spires, the red crystals, the wheels of steel, the movement is the wind, the stop is the air, the sound of spears hitting each other overflows the void city, the sixty-three of the broken path, the thunder roar!" "Faced with the sudden situation, Charles, who was knocked away, could only choose to attack from a distance, and the strongest attack that could be used in the soul state was launched into the palm of the "death".
But it didn't work, even if Charles had already used the stronger thunder roar cannon in the broken passage, he didn't stop the hand of "death" from pausing, she still grabbed the soul of the ancient one according to a fixed rhythm.
"I'll go, the thundering carriage, the crack of the spinning wheel, this thing has a cluster of light and divided into six, sixty-one of the binding paths, and six rods of light!" Finding that the path breaking attack was ineffective, Charles immediately used the ability to bind the road, and the six pieces of light immediately locked the skeleton hand, and then shattered, and Charles's action was judged to be invalid again.
Charles's two attacks did not stop the death step at all, and death officially caught the ancient one, and the soul of the ancient one did not resist in the face of death's capture, but just glanced at Charles apologetically, and then said his last words with a smile: "This world will be handed over to you." ”
And Death did not return directly to his own kingdom after grasping the Ancient One, but glanced at Charles with empty eyes, and then explained Charles's question just now: "The Grim Reaper and the Hell Lord can only harvest ordinary souls, and I will collect her noble soul, even you can't stop it." ”
Then death just left, and she didn't react angrily to Charles's attack on her, and just left flatly, leaving Charles alone and standing still, watching the Ancient One finally leave this world.
Only on the roof of a building in the distance, a strange fellow dressed in red looked at the place where death had disappeared, and muttered, "How beautiful, how gentle." Well, Deadpool is someone who can never be judged by normal means, and the hell knows how he can see a battle at the soul level.
