Chapter 308: Void VS Void (2-in-1 Chapter)
In mid-air, the Scarlet Witch's indiscriminate bombardment continued.
The temple of a fortress built of boulders was indistinguishable from a soft piece of tofu in the face of her chaos magic.
Those beast-headed cannons that had been pinned on high hopes had become a pile of broken copper and iron.
The gunners, who were in charge of manipulating the cannons, were thrown off a cliff by a witch and did not know whether they were alive or dead.
A magic archer with a longbow who died under his own bow and arrows.
The smoke of gunpowder and the charred corpses all over the ground made Kama Taj lose her former holiness and mystery, and add a touch of pathos.
The cries and cries for help resounded, and no matter how hateful the king stared at the witch, he could not change the fact that this holy land, which had been inherited for thousands of years, was destroyed.
He wanted to fight the witch, but was dragged by Strange on the side.
"Retreat!"
"Get out of here, king!"
Looking at the mages and students with panicked faces and fleeing in all directions, Wang had no choice but to give up his idea of hitting a stone with an egg, and stared at them with bloodshot eyes, leading them to retreat.
He will definitely take revenge for this revenge!
The red light, which represents the magic of chaos, is still raging, and Wanda has fallen into a state of madness at this time.
It wasn't until the entire temple was completely in ruins that she realized that the mages had fled.
Throw out a few deadly red flames, turning the survivors who survived the catastrophe into ashes.
Then, the witch slowly landed and walked towards the main hall of Kama Taj, the most important of all.
In the center of her deep chest, purple crystals flickered like breath, as if urging her to hurry.
Eventually, Wanda stood still at the entrance of the quaint-looking main hall and slowly closed her eyes, she was sure that the girl must be inside.
In the smoky room, América, who had been protected by several senior mages, suddenly heard an inexplicable whisper in her ears, as if someone was calling her name.
She looked around in horror, but found nothing.
And Wanda, who was standing outside the hall, opened her eyes again at this time, she had just successfully located the girl's position through some kind of magic on the "Dark Divine Book".
But at the same time as she opened her eyes, Strange also appeared at the door of the main hall.
"If you want that girl, you've got to get past me first."
His bravado made Wanda feel a little funny.
So, the witch, who did not bother to have any more communication with him, stepped into the temple without hesitation.
Then she fell for Strange again.
Kama Taj, as an ashram that has been operated by the Ancient One for many years, is far from being as simple as it seems.
Especially if the Ancient One is especially proficient in space magic.
Inside the temple, which looks like an ordinary temple, every brick and stone, and even every object, is magically applied.
So, despite the fact that Strange can't use any spells now, he can mobilize the power of the temple itself.
The floor tiles under Wanda's feet suddenly began to rotate like gears, eventually forming a huge magic circle.
Immediately afterward, everything around him, whether it was the walls, the columns, or everything else, began to move, as if he had stepped into a kaleidoscope of worlds, chaotic and regular.
A few meters away, Strange's figure gradually became illusory until he disappeared.
The witch looked at the changes around her with a little panic, and was a little overwhelmed for a while.
It wasn't long before a long bowl sounded out of nowhere, and then a long narrow corridor appeared in front of her.
She walked briskly over, and when she reached the end of the corridor, she found a mirror that took up the entire wall.
When the witch wants to turn back, she finds that the retreat behind her has been cut off and has become a mirror.
Then at her feet, overhead, and eventually she was trapped in a room with only mirrors.
Looking at her restless self in the mirror, Wanda's hatred for Strange and Kama Taj has also reached its peak.
"Stephen, I'll find you."
The witch muttered in a low voice, surprisingly calm.
But the voice was deafening, and it was easy to open the gap between the spatial splicing.
There was a clatter of shattering mirrors, and thousands of void creatures of different sizes poured out of the jagged edges of the cavern.
......
After using the teleportation array to send the mage and the students away, Strange took the king and immediately rushed to the room where the girl was.
"We've got to get you out right now!"
As Strange spoke, he habitually raised his hands to open the teleportation channel.
I saw a few faint sparks flash in the air, and then there was no more.
"I'll do it." The king opened his mouth and took his place.
At this time, América, who had been staying in the room, rushed over and asked, "What's going on outside?" ”
Strange said with a gloomy face, "Kama Taj has fallen." ”
Beside him, Wang, who had just raised a hand, suddenly froze in place, because the hanging ring on his finger was wrapped in a cloud of red smoke and turned into dust.
A malicious scream reached everyone's ears through the walls, and the doors were closed at this moment, and all the passages out of here were completely sealed.
As Strange and the others watched warily, a void creature that looked like an anglerfish but was covered in tentacles broke through the surface and swallowed a mage who was responsible for protecting America whole.
No one had time to react to the sudden change, and when they came back to their senses, the void creature had already burrowed back into the ground.
"Reincarnation Paradise"
"Watch your step, don't get together!"
Strange reminded the crowd loudly, picked up Americalica, and flew into the air with her magic cloak.
He didn't want to do that, but the girl's safety was more important than anything else these days.
Due to the destruction of the Hanging Ring by chaos magic, the king became a "squib", and could only climb the stone pillar next to him with another mage, barely leaving the ground.
But in the next second, the wall behind them collapsed instantly, and another void creature burst into the room, with a hideous mouth, swinging a dozen fins under its abdomen, biting at another mage.
A crescent-shaped gap appeared in the stone pillar in an instant, and the mage screamed and was torn into countless pieces of flesh.
The warm blood splattered Wang's face, and he was stunned for a moment, then jumped off the ground and rushed towards the void creature that was feasting on it.
"Don't, king!"
Strange tried to stop it, but the king couldn't heed any advice now.
Perhaps the king's footsteps were too heavy, and the "anglerfish" located underground was alarmed, and once again broke through the ground, and its huge mouth like an abyss opened and closed, swallowing him in.
"Wang ——————!"
Despite being a newcomer, America had a good impression of the chubby mage, and tears welled up in her eyes when she saw him being killed by monsters.
Strange, who has been an old friend for many years, is even more stunned, his face is pale, and he can't wait to break the murderer of the king into pieces.
"Is that unbearable, Stephen?"
"Do you know how painful it must be for me to lose my lover and child?"
The witch, covered in fuchsia substance, slowly entered the room through the gap just now.
Behind her, there are countless strange and deformed void creatures.
"You sacrificed so many lives just to keep me from getting close to my children."
"It's you, kill those people!"
Surrounded by the Void creatures, Strange saw that there was no way out, so he had to fall to the ground with the girl in his arms.
"There's no way I'm going to let you into the multiverse!"
The witch looked at the girl shivering behind him and was in a good mood: "I'm not a monster, Stephen. ”
"I'm a mother."
"I just want to be with my kids."
Strange reminded again: "Wanda, you don't have children, they don't exist at all!" ”
The witch, who was in her hands, finally calmed her restless heart at this time, and said calmly: "They exist, in every other universe. ”
"I know they're there, because I'll dream of them."
Dreams are an extension of the multiverse, and every dream may be a reality in other universes.
Just like before Strange, he dreamed that the girl and her other self were being chased by monsters.
And this dream really existed.
Therefore, when he heard the witch's words, he couldn't help but hesitate, maybe Wanda did all this thing really just to reunite with her family.
But soon, Strange had another problem in mind.
"If you find them, what will happen to the other one?"
"What should their mother do?"
The soul-like torture made Wanda's expression immediately become extremely cold, until it was distorted.
With a lift of his hand, chaos magic erupted, knocking Strange to the ground.
"Kill him!"
A low roar that didn't look like a human came from the witch's mouth, and the void creatures couldn't wait to swarm up and pounce on Strange.
America was lifted into the air by the witch, and no matter how much she struggled and screamed, it was to no avail.
Under the urging of magic, the special ability possessed by the girl was forcibly absorbed, turning into white rays of light and sucking into the witch's body.
At this moment, Strange was suddenly freed from the siege of the Void.
"I said that if you want that child, you have to pass me first!"
Looking at Doctor Strange surrounded by purple-black points of light, Wanda couldn't help but chuckle a few times: "Stephen, it seems that you are not as noble as you say yourself. ”
"I've never said how noble I am!"
Strange, who finally accepted the gift of the Void, threw out several purple bands of light and wrapped them around the witch on the opposite side.
"It's not as easy to control as you think." Wanda commands the void creatures to block attacks for herself, while continuing to absorb the girl's abilities.
"What do you think you have a chance of winning, Stephen?"
"Is it one in a million again?"
Strange ignored her taunts because, as the witch said, he wasn't yet skilled in mastering the Void and didn't even know how to use it.
"Why don't you speak, Stephen?"
Wanda has a defiant smile on her face as she constantly uses void creatures to hinder Doctor Strange's actions.
Although both sides belong to the same Void faction, the monsters will not attack Strange directly, but it is more than enough to act as a meat shield.
Just when Strange was at a loss, something happened to América's side again.
As her ability was withdrawn little by little, she felt the crisis, and her eyes flashed with brilliant shattered colors.
At the same time, dazzling white spots also lit up behind him.
Several spatial channels in the shape of pentagrams overlap each other, each representing a different parallel universe.
There was a huge suction force from inside the passage, sucking many things in the room in, but América, who was the actual controller of the passage, was trapped in this universe by the witch.
Seeing this, Strange immediately had an idea.
He gave up attacking the witch and instead jumped high and lunged at the girl.
Although Wanda knew what Strange wanted to do, it was too late, and she could only watch him and the girl fall into the space passage together.
When the figures of the two disappeared, the passage was immediately closed, and Wanda had nowhere to chase after him.
Strange, on the other hand, is experiencing the most bizarre adventure in his life.
Because America is in a state of panic, the uncontrollable power contained in her body constantly opens new passages, taking the two of them through parallel universes one after another.
Some universes are ordinary and look nothing special, while others are unbelievably bizarre.
They saw the head of a golden giant larger than the planet; I saw a prehistoric place full of dinosaurs; a hive full of giant bees; the underwater world of Atlantis; a horrible hell of bones and flesh; a universe composed entirely of cubes;
In addition to this, they also entered the two-dimensional world of comics; It even became two pools of colorful, but shapeless paint.
It took nearly 20 different universes for the two to reach the end of their journey.
It's a world where technology is far beyond Earth, and everything is plausible, with a sense of familiarity and strangeness at the same time.
In addition, there seems to be a strong focus on environmental issues and other issues, and almost all the buildings are covered with greenery, making it a veritable garden city.
Strange, who had fallen on the lawn on the rooftop, observed curiously what was in front of him.
At the same time, he didn't care about the girl next to him: "Are you okay?" ”
America is very calm, and she is not surprised to come to a new world.
She was more concerned about another thing: "You saved me!" ”
The last Doctor Strange in the parallel universe wanted to kill her at a critical moment to ensure the safety of the multiverse, but now this Doctor Strange has sacrificed his life to save her.
Therefore, America is now not just surprised, but more moved.
But Strange is not as optimistic as the girl: "I hope so. ”
"Leaving that universe doesn't mean we're safe, we still have to go back eventually..."
"—————— uh!"
Strange, who hadn't finished speaking, suddenly covered his head and screamed.
Beneath the skin, streaks of purple-black substance converge like worms towards the head.
A purple miasma began to spread in front of his eyes, and the terrifying creature with one eye tore through the sky, enveloping the invisible tides of ability and breaking through the barriers that divided the space.
Its voice was like a sharp knife piercing Strange's head, exploding, and all sounds around it died down.
"Well done, Strange, you're doing well."
"I love this world."
