"It's a bit different from what I imagined." Strange couldn't help it. From the words of the Mage King, it seems that Heblen is not a righteous and orderly organization in the moral sense.

"There are also some discrepancies between what you and I know." Hearing Strange's words, the Mage King also gave him a special look.

"You seem to know me very well, well, in a sense, you do know me very well." Strange just wanted to mock it, but in a blink of an eye, as if he thought of something, his face fell.

"I've seen many Strange creatures in the universe, and most of them have something in common. That is, they know how to judge the situation, or when there is no choice, they will choose the best course. Rational to cold.

When a universe is in a huge crisis, and there is a great possibility that it will spread to the multiverse like a virus and become a multiverse crisis, if this universe can be locked and left to fend for itself, without affecting other multiverses, then Strange will finally make up his mind.

When disaster is unavoidable, choose the one with the least loss. The Mage King turned his face and continued to walk around the library with Strange, stopping to accompany him when Strange stopped to flip through a spell book on the shelf. When Strange puts the book back on the shelf, he and the other person will move again, changing places. During the period, the exchange and conversation between the two was not delayed.

"It's something I can do." Strange thought about it and realized that he had this part of the trait as well. If it really happened, he felt that he would most likely make the same choice.

"But you're different from those Stranges, and there are still some emotional biases in your mind. Or is it more paranoid? The Mage King gave another answer.

"What do you mean?" Strange was a little puzzled by the Mage King's words.

"Meaning, there are some differences in your style from the Strange I've seen. To be honest, I still like yours. At least when I need you, you will calmly abandon me in your choice for some righteous reasons. While my intellect understands the decisions and actions you make in that situation, there is still a sense of loss and depression in my emotions. Master Wang said in detail.

"How do you know I'm different from those Strange you've seen? You know, strictly speaking, even though we belong to different universes, our lives, experiences, everything is similar, even the same. Naturally, the personality will be the same. Strange paused, glanced sideways at the Mage King walking beside him, and quietly waited for his answer.

"Aren't you supposed to be aware of it?" The Mage King faced Strange's gaze with a hearty smile on his face.

"Is it the kind of energy that is unique to your universe?" Strange asked with certainty.

"To be precise, psionic energy has begun to spread and become deeply rooted in the multiverse. It's like magic and chaos and other forces. It does make people more accurate and sensitive to emotional fluctuations and interpretations. After the mage king finished answering with certainty, he continued: "In addition, although the experience of the multiverse may be the same, this kind of experience generally refers to a major event, the kind that is enough to change your life and reshape your three views and personality.

For example, in all the universes where you became Doctor Strange, you will inevitably experience a car accident, you will inevitably hurt your most important hand, and you will inevitably go all over the world to find a cure, and after being disappointed again and again, you will finally put your hope on the ethereal mysterious power. ”

Strange was silent. Car accidents and the search for magical redemption do seem to be major events that he can't avoid. These hardships have sharpened him and given him a new lease of life.

"But the details are still different, for example, do you still remember what gender, skin color, and appearance of the Ancient One Mage?" The mage king asked the question pointedly.

"Of course it's a man. No," Strange snapped out, and the next moment he frowned, realizing that his memory seemed to be missing and altered in some way. The Ancient One mage he remembered was male, but his subconscious told him that it was wrong! The Ancient One Mage is a woman!

In a normal person, there is no doubt that under a large number of memories, they will ignore their inexplicable subconscious and regard memory as the real and only correct answer. But in the case of a mage, especially a gifted mage like Strange, he sometimes trusts his subconscious even more than he remembers. After all, there are too many powers in the mysterious side that can reverse and modify a person's memory.

If the memory is wrong, then everything that follows can also be wrong. This thought made Strange break out in a cold sweat for a while.

"My memory tells me that the Ancient One Mage is a male, but my subconscious tells me that my memory is wrong."

Eventually, Strange told the whole story of his feelings and psychological fluctuations.

"Sure enough, your emotional paranoia may have made you gain the favor and love of psionic energy in the time and space shuttle, which has made your trajectory correct to a certain extent." The mage king's face finally showed a little interested, as if he had been testing for a long time, and finally found out some information that he cared about, and a generous smile appeared on his face again, but this time the smile seemed to be much more amiable and familiar.

"What do you mean?" Strange was a little unsure.

"It's actually a hidden test. If you can't give me an answer, then you're just an ordinary Strange to us, dispensable. But your answer did not disappoint us. You are the one who can join the Doctor Strange group and become a full member. The Mage King said, looking at Strange's calm face, and explained again: "The Ancient One Mage is a woman, but the moment she embarked on the path to ascending to the gods, she in the multiverse has already begun to shrink. She disappeared from the multiverse. But as an important part of the multiverse time, this role will not disappear. Can you understand what I say? ”

That is, there is nothing wrong with my subconscious. It was indeed the female Ancient One who taught me magic, but then because the Ancient One mage of your universe embarked on the path of ascending to God, the power of the universe changed our memory? Strange thought for himself.

"Or maybe your universe has already been restarted once. After all, the universe seems to be powerful, but it is fragile. The Mage King gave another possible answer. (End of chapter)
