Chapter 260: Meeting
"It's your thing." Strange pulled a heavy book out of his back and walked over to Luke and handed it to him.
"It's better to follow the rules and put it in Kama Taj." Luke looked at the lost Book of Energy, and didn't mean to reach out and take it. For him, it doesn't matter where the Book of Energy is, it doesn't matter who holds it, it is better anywhere or in anyone's hands than on his own side.
"Can you help with the abyss?" The girl who had returned with Strange stepped forward and asked aloud.
"Dormammu's daughter." Strange repeated.
"Of course we can't solve the abyss." Luke spread his hands and said under the girl's disappointed gaze, "We can only control its spread for the time being. ”
Luke's peaks and loops, and the girl's emotions fluctuated up and down. Her gaze subconsciously looked at Strange, her eyes full of inquiry.
"I can testify to that. He can indeed do it. Strange proved.
"If he can control the spread of the abyss, then Dormammu is willing to negotiate the conditions you mentioned." The girl Klee said without hesitation. The abyss is expanding too fast, and her father, who is the lord of the dark dimension, has studied it in the early stage, which has led to a growth period of the abyssal energy, and it is like an appendage that greedily absorbs the power of the dark dimension and grows.
Even if Dormammu had already thought of various methods, and even used the method of sacrificing a large number of dimensional dimensional lives, it would be useless to try to send away the abyss energy a little bit.
In fact, this method worked quite well at first. It's just that those abyssal energies, like consciousness, hide and constantly evolve and activate and assimilate everything around them. Even Dormammu deceived the past.
By the time Dormammu realized that something was wrong, the abyssal energy, which had unwittingly expanded to a terrifying level, had become a deadly threat.
The method of sacrificing life is no longer very useful in the face of the skyrocketing abyssal energy, and the effect of using a large amount of dark dimensional energy to offset the annihilation abyss energy is extremely poor, and it even has the effect of adding fuel to the fire and injecting energy into the abyss energy.
As for magic seals and stuff, as a master of magic, Dormammu used all magic means at the first time, but he only barely controlled the disorderly expansion of the abyss dimension, causing it to slow down its expansion.
Radical cure and control?
That's impossible!
Dormammu now hated Casillas for bringing the abyssal energy in, and even the new Supreme Mage Strange made a note that his deception had caused all this, and that he was an even more hateful opponent than the Ancient One.
At least although Gu Yi hates it, at best, she steals some energy without asking for herself, and quietly hangs a dimensional authority on herself, which is generally a food grab. But Strange is directly smashing his job!
If it weren't for the atrium enchantment being reinforced again, Dormammu would have wanted to rush over and torture Strange again
So when Strange boldly reappeared in the dark dimension and in front of him, he was eager to kill the other party. After all, the culprit took the initiative to send it to the door, and he had no need to be tolerant.
However, Strange seemed to have expected this scene, and after being killed many times, he still made his intentions clear.
Dormammu didn't know if Strange had a way to help him solve the abyssal puzzle, but what he did know was that even if he tortured and killed Strange a thousand more times, the threat of the abyss would not be lifted.
"Did he come in person?" Luke could hear the meaning of the girl's words.
"No, he can only split one incarnation." Klee sighed, she wasn't sighing for her father Dormammu, she didn't have a good relationship with the other party anyway, she just didn't want the life of the dark dimension to be threatened by the abyss.
Klee paused for a moment and added, "He can't do without the Dark Dimension at all now, because only he can control the massive expansion of the Abyss. As for me? I'm just a positioning coordinate. ”
Luke nodded.
After a moment of silence, Klee looked at Luke, who was silent, and Strange, who was watching her cloak and Luke's ribbon fight in mid-air, and asked tentatively, "When are we going to start negotiations?" Although I hate to say it, the abyss of the dark dimension has become a threat that cannot be ignored. If left unchecked, one day, the entire dark dimension will be swallowed by the abyss, and even those dimensional dimensional worlds connected by the dark dimension will not be able to escape the erosion of the abyss. ”
"Don't worry, we need to communicate internally, and it will take time to inform them." Luke unhurriedly soothed a somewhat anxious Klee and gave Strange a look. "Let Master Strange accompany you for this time, and you can rest here."
Looking at the figure of Strange persuading the girl away, Luke sent a message to the god king Odin and them in the next second.
……
Asgard.
Asgard.
Familiar conference tables.
Odin and others, who have met more frequently in recent times, sat in their own places.
In the crowd, Mephisto was extremely excited, and as soon as he appeared in his seat, he couldn't wait to ask Luke, "That guy Dormammu has taken the bait?" ”
"He wants to talk to us and determine the conditions." Luke recounted the information that had been out of Klee's mouth for the past few days.
"Looks like he's in big trouble." Mephisto's face was full of schadenfreude. Seeing that the other demon gods were unlucky, Mephisto, who was about to usher in a wave of bumper harvests soon, was almost unable to suppress the high emotions in his heart.
"Strange is coming." Gu Yi said softly.
Now that she has been relieved of her responsibilities, she has devoted her whole body and mind to researching new energies, and even monitoring Mephisto has become a matter of convenience.
With the authority given by Luke, she now has the posture to become one of the sources of power for the mages of the Supreme Mage. Anyone among the mages who uses new energy will be keenly grasped by the ancient one, and decide whether to reject the distribution of power.
Therefore, when Strange borrowed the new energy, as the target of attention, the Ancient One almost immediately sensed what magic Strange used, how much energy he used, and where the energy of the teleportation was located.
It was only after the Ancient One finished speaking that Mephisto sensed the fluctuations in the space around him, as well as the portal that suddenly swirled in the air and opened with sparkling energy particles.
After the portal was secured, Strange walked out of the door with a girl and appeared in front of everyone.
"Is this Dormammu's daughter?" Mephisto looked at the girl. Quite a few dimensional demon gods have their own heirs in various senses, including him. But the embarrassing thing is that the relationship between the heirs and them is mostly not very good.
[Father's Kindness and Filial Piety], [Righteous Destruction of Relatives], [Elbow Turning Out], these are all the routine operations of the heirs, relying on the little padded jacket that knows the information and weaknesses of his father's generation and the case of outsiders beating his demon god father, the multiverse has always happened from time to time.
As a big man who plays with her mind and emotions, Mephisto felt some of Klee's inner thoughts and emotions for the first time. The other party is too immature, so immature that he doesn't know how to protect his heart from invasion.
After a flash of energy fluctuations flashed through Klee's body, a wave of dark energy passed Odin's permission and entered the conference room.
A huge, huge face made of energy was suspended abruptly on an empty seat, and then the dark energy that continued to pour in from the void built bones and muscles under the neck, and finally a small giant three meters tall sat on the seat that changed with his size.
"You're not dead, Ancient One! Were you behind the scenes? Damn, this is a trap? ”
Dormammu's eyes glowing with a halo of bright energy swept over the people present one by one, and after seeing the ancient one's familiar face that tickled the roots of his teeth, he gritted his teeth and roared with a little realization.
Dormammu instinctively took the dead Ancient One as the mastermind behind it.
"Is this the brain being eroded by the energy of the abyss?" A mocking energy frequency translated into words and flew into Dormammu's ears, and it was Mephisto who spoke.
"You were the ones who released the abyss!" Dormammu's gaze fell on Mephisto's body, and the energy was unstable and raging in all directions, and he said with a bang: "You have set your eyes on my dark dimension, do you want to start a war with me!" ”
"We're here to help you get out of trouble, Mr. Dormamme." Luke had to interject, and let Mephisto tease him again, and Dormammu, who was unstable, was probably about to explode on the spot. It can be seen that the torture of the abyss during this time is not light.
"I can't believe you! You are the ones who have unleashed the abyss! I must declare your despicable shamelessness in the multiverse! Dormammu looked at the Ancient One and Mephisto viciously, and roared.
"All of you here are victims of the abyssal energy." Luke explained, "We were threatened by the abyss before you. In fact, if you hadn't invaded the atrium, you wouldn't have been entangled in the abyssal energy. At the end of the day, it's your own trouble. We are willing to lend a helping hand to you because we are also victims of the erosion of the abyss. ”
"Ha, do you think I believe it?" After listening to Luke's words, Dormammu's tone unconsciously relaxed, although his face was still angry. After all, he came to find a solution to the abyss, not to fight Luke and the others. He was now tossed by the abyss, if it was just for a meaningless battle, he didn't have that mind.
"In fact, the Abyss was summoned by a man named Malekith. He is the king of Watt Alheim, one of the Nine Realms, and is an ancient dark spirit bent on returning the Nine Realms and the universe to eternal darkness. He wields the Aether Particle, an artifact of the Dark Elves.
While fighting Odin, the King of the Nine Realms, he summoned his henchmen from a dimensional dimension that brought the abyss to the universe. The Nine Realms races present at that time, including some demons who aided in the predation, were all polluted by the abyss.
Nidavel, one of the Nine Realms, was deeply eroded by the energy of the abyss, and was activated by the abyss to create a sense of self, establishing an unbreakable connection with it. For this reason, the god-king Odin had to banish Nidavile from the Nine Realms after some treatment.
The Hell dimension has also been corrupted by the energy of the abyss after accepting the returning tainted demons. It's just that Mephisto found out early and tried his best to control the situation before the situation got completely out of control.
The atrium has been minimally eroded, but some mages may have been affected, and their spirits were somewhat abnormal after being polluted. And after you established contact with those mages, it was obvious that you had already been infected by the abyss, but it was only in the incubation period, and you did not find it. ”
Luke talked with an unchanging face, and by the way, he crushed the black cauldron on his head with a certain king of the dark elves who had fled all over the universe and desperately escaped from the abyss of Nidavel.
Mephisto admired Luke's shameless behavior, adding, "If the abyss was released by us, would we use it to blow up our own house first?" We are the first direct victims! So far, we have only found a way to control the expansion of the abyss, but we have not been able to solve it completely and without hidden dangers. You have seriously hurt my dignity, Dormammu! I need to make amends! ”
Dormammu's energy eyes almost turned into the sky, the abyss may not have been released by them, he could believe it, but dignity? They don't have such a thing.
"I need you to help me solve the abyss of the dark dimension, make conditions." Dormammu didn't bother to quarrel with Mephisto anymore, he just wanted to quickly solve the big trouble of the abyss and restore the dark dimension to normal!
"You need to ......" Mephisto coughed twice, pulled a piece of parchment from his clothes, and pulled it out as he spoke.
One minute.
Two minutes.
Ten minutes.
The length of the parchment had been piled up in thick piles on the table, and Dormammu's face became more and more ugly with the length of the parchment. Eventually, looking at the parchment that still had no end, Dormammu roared out in an unbearable manner.
"Enough! Don't overdo it! ”
Mephisto glared dissatisfiedly at Dormammu, who was standing up, left and right at Luke and Odin, who were staring at him, coughed twice with embarrassed faces, broke off the parchment, and rolled it up.
"That's all." Mephisto tossed Dormammu, a thick roll of parchment, and pulled out a copy of the parchment parchment that made Dormammu's eyelids jump.
"Plus, it's a contract. As long as you sign it, we will immediately help you solve the problem of the spread of the abyss. Mephisto assured with a sincere face: "I will personally bring someone over to solve it for you!" ”
