Also in New York.

In the suburbs, in a house overlooking the mountains and the sea, Ant-Man Scott and his girlfriend Hope the Wasp are assembling some instruments.

"Hopefully we can get it done before the guest arrives."

Scott took a wrench, wiped his sweat and smiled, "After doing this, I want to take a vacation." ”

Hope glanced at him, "I thought your vacation was long enough. ”

Scott pointed at her and said, "What you say really makes me sad, and the time in the undersea prison can't be called a holiday." ”

"You know what?"

"I can't wait to meet Cathy, I'm going to take her to the amusement park, I'm going to eat a Big Mac burger with her!"

Hope coughed dryly and said, "I have to warn you, Mr. Scott, that your daughter is no longer a child, and she is probably not interested in the playground project, or the Big Mac burger. ”

"Now she probably has a boyfriend, maybe she's snuggling up in his arms, Daddy."

"No, no, no."

Scott covered his ears exaggeratedly: "Don't say it, please don't say it." ”

"I don't believe it, my little princess is held in my hands as if it was yesterday, and I can't accept that she already has a boyfriend."

"No, I'll have to give her a call."

Hope spread his hands and said, "Are you serious, now at this time?" ”

"For God's sake, let's get this device done."

"This is our promise to Ava, we promised to heal her, you won't forget it, will you?"

Eve. Starr, codenamed 'Ghost'.

It's a poor girl.

Her father, Eli Hayes. Starr stole Hank. Pym's design drawings were dismissed.

But after his dismissal, Elihays did not give up research, and finally, in an experimental accident in the quantum field, Elihays was tragically killed.

However.

His daughter, Ava the Ghost, was given superpowers in an accident.

She can alter her molecular structure to make her untouchable like a ghost, or she can pass through solid walls or dodge attacks.

But over time, her body became extremely unstable, and if she didn't improve, she would die.

Bill. Foster, Hank. Pym's former colleague.

The man who adopted Ava reached out to Pym after he couldn't solve the problem with his adopted daughter. Hank, who thus intersects with Scott and Hope.

At the time, Bill believed that by stealing Pym's dodge lab and drawing energy from the quantum device inside, he would be able to heal Ava's body.

But at the time, Pym. Hank tries to use the device to retrieve his wife, Janet, and a series of conflicts erupt between the two sides.

Eventually, though, Pym. Hank still managed to get his wife back who had been trapped in the quantum realm for thirty years, and Janet also gave Ava some of her energy to help her stabilize her physical condition.

Scott and the others also promised to collect more energy for Ava to solve her problems, but after that incident, there was the Thanos incident, followed by the appearance of the Conqueror.

So much time has passed, and Scott has not fulfilled his original promise.

Just recently, Ava contacted them again, just after the overthrow of John's Empire, so Scott planned to take this opportunity to fulfill his promise.

Then.

The doorbell rang.

"The guests are here." Scott glanced at Hope, "Beautiful young lady, you shouldn't mind opening the door for me." ”

Hope gave him a soft kiss on the cheek, then walked over to the door and opened it.

As soon as the door opened, she saw a sturdy figure.

It was a blonde man, and he turned his back to Hope, and when he heard the door open, he turned his head and smiled, "Good morning." ”

Hope's eyes shrank slightly.

Five minutes later, a pickup truck arrives at the door, and Dr. Bill opens the door to block the bright sunlight pouring overhead.

"They're becoming more and more like ants, moving every once in a while, and now they're living in this kind of ghost place."

The other side of the car door opened, and the 'ghost' Ava in a white suit jumped out of the car: "Don't complain, doctor, they won't be easy either, Scott just came out of the undersea prison, and they need time to get used to." ”

Dr. Bill swore and walked to the door, and when he went to ring the doorbell, he found the door open.

He was about to walk in, but was stopped by Ava.

"Something is wrong."

"You stay here, I'll go in and see."

Ava immediately changed her molecular structure to make herself ghostly and unpredictable, and she pierced through the walls into the room to the unfinished quantum device.

She walked around the room inside and out, not finding Scott or Hope, and let Dr. Bill in.

"They just left."

Ava picked up a cup of coffee on the table next to the device, the coffee was still steaming, apparently there was someone in the room not long ago.

Bill looked around, "So where did they go?" ”

"Entered the quantum realm?"

Ava shook her head, she picked up a plug, "No, the power isn't on yet, and the unit itself isn't fully installed yet. ”

"They. Missing? ”

This is Wangada Mountain.

The mountain has collapsed, but above its ruins, there are still traces of human activity.

Right above the ruins of that mountain, a man was talking to himself in a frenzied manner.

"You're not real!"

"Get out of my head, get out of my head!"

"You're fake, you're hallucinating, you're my hallucination, that's right, I know, you're what I imagined, it's you who should get out!"

If the king were here at this time, he would have found that this man was none other than the former Supreme Mage, Stephen. Strange!

But now, the man was scruffy, worse than a vagabond, with bloodshot eyes, sometimes yelling angrily, sometimes laughing maniacally.

Pity.

The king is gone.

As for the former Doctor Strange, his dark personality was unleashed by Azu, and now, two personalities coexist in Stephen's body, fighting for the ownership of the body every day.

At this moment, as Stephen sat on a large rock gasping for breath, he saw his dark personality crouching in the snow not far ahead, looking at him with a sinister smile.

"You won't last long, Strange."

"I know very well that even if you are a great magician, you always need to sleep."

"As long as you sleep, I will take control of your body, and then set a cage in your head to imprison you completely."

Stephen stubbornly said: "Then I won't sleep, I can hold on for a long time, let's see who falls first." ”

"Why, why do you have to go against me!"

The dark strangeness pounced on Stephen, who was a black mist in the form of a humanoid with three eyes.

"Give me your body, Stephen, and we can create a perfect world!"

"We should go and find the Dark Book, and if we master it, we will be able to do anything."

"Think about it, Stephen, don't you want to make up for those regrets?"

"If we have the Dark Book, we can do a lot of things, including redeeming that woman."

"You don't want to watch her marry someone else, do you?"

Stephen yelled.

"Shut your mouth, damn it."

"I'm not going to do that."

"Don't try to manipulate my thoughts, get out of my head."

Doctor Strange, who was busy arguing with himself, didn't notice Azu's arrival.

Azu, who came out of the portal, saw Stephen roaring into the air, and then showing an eerie smile like a demon whispering.

Just then, both Stephen and Dark Strange heard a voice, "You're in such a bad situation. ”

In Stephen's eyes, he and Dark Strange looked at the same time as the voice, and saw a blonde man walking over with a smile on his face.

"Conqueror!"

They yelled at the same time.

Seeing this man who had put himself in such a situation, neither Stephen nor Dark Strange gave Azu a good look.

Stephen saw the darkness swoop down strangely, and the humanoid black mist would roar at the conqueror, and then float behind the people and strangled the conqueror's neck with his hand.

In Azu's eyes, Doctor Strange's eyes wandered, looking at his front and behind him.

"Tsk, you're not very sick."

Azu took out the 'Dark Divine Book' from his inventory and said, "Do you want me to do you a favor?" ”

"The Dark Book!"

Stephen's eyes suddenly became greedy, and he pounced on Azu: "Give it to me!" ”

On the Infinity Gauntlet, the Power Gem lit up, and suddenly a force field slammed into Stephen's body, pressing him to the ground and unable to move.

Azu squatted down and said with a smile, "Which one is talking to me now?" ”

"It's me."

"Dark Bizarre!"

"Give me the Dark Divine Book, and I'll be able to suppress that nasty guy like Stephen."

Stephen's expression was hideous, like a mad dog.

Azuhaha laughed, "I can help you build a wall in your head and keep Stephen on the other side of the wall temporarily." ”

"But you have to do me a favor, and when it's done, I can consider giving you the 'Dark Divine Book'."

Dark Strange hesitated, "How can I trust you?" ”

Suddenly he shouted again: "No, I don't agree! ”

Stephen then said to himself, "I don't need your consent, and you're not my guardian." ”

He raised his head, his eyes bloodshot: "Okay, let's go back to the topic just now, how can I trust you?" ”

Azu shrugged his shoulders: "That's your business, I don't have to be you, it doesn't matter if you don't have one, I just give you a chance, as for whether you want to seize this opportunity, you have the final say." ”

"Now you have three seconds to think about it."

"Three"

"Two"

"One"

"Unfortunately, it seems that we can't work together."

Azu lit up the Primordial Spatial Stone on the Infinity Gauntlet, and the portal opened immediately, and when he saw that he was leaving, Dark Strange screamed.

"Wait!"

"Damn it, well, I promise you."

"Throw that guy over the wall."

Stephen regained consciousness and shouted, "No, I won't let you do that." ”

But at that moment, a wall suddenly rose in front of his eyes, and this wall separated his dark strangeness.

He saw Dark Strange waving goodbye to him on the other side of the wall, and Stephen cried out in despair.

On the Vangeda Mountain, a third eye opened on Stephen's forehead, and he let out a long breath and smiled.

"So, where are we going now?"

Heavenly Sword Bureau.

This is a S.H.I.E.L.D.-like agency, and they were the ones who took Vision's body in the first place, but it was later snatched by Wanda.

And now, Wanda, who was trapped in her own spiritual world, was taken in by the Heavenly Sword Bureau after leaving the undersea prison.

Wanda was contained in a cell built especially for her, which was able to absorb all energy, including Wanda's chaotic magical energy.

Of course, this is only theoretical, and as for whether this is the case, the researchers of the Heavenly Sword Bureau have no bottom in their hearts.

But now.

The Scarlet Witch was imprisoned in this cell, and the Heavenly Sword Bureau gave it a name: the Witch Inquisition.

"Everything works."

"Wanda's brain waves are still at the wavelength of sluggishness, and there is no sign of waking up."

Outside the 'Witches' Trial, a team of heavily armed agents armed with vibranium weapons seized from Wakanda is on guard 24 hours a day.

These weapons have raised the combat effectiveness of the Heavenly Sword Bureau to a higher level.

In addition to the agents, there is also a group of researchers monitoring Wanda's condition, and several of them originally advocated extracting Wanda's blood and studying how Wanda, a human, obtained magical energy from the perspective of genetic technology.

However, this proposal was rejected, and the Heavenly Sword Bureau was worried that it would stimulate Wanda's humanoid nuclear bomb, which would lead to the destruction of the Heavenly Sword Bureau.

The higher-ups would rather let Wanda sleep like this than have any accidents.

However, this kind of thing, even if it is the Heavenly Sword Bureau, there is no guarantee that it will never appear.

Just like now.

Suddenly, an alarm sounded in the Heavenly Sword Bureau, and then the radio sounded.

"Alert!"

"Alert!"

"Intruders have been found in T3 area, please eliminate them immediately."

"It has been confirmed that the intruder is Spider-Man Peter. Parker! ”

In the T3 area of this base, Spider-Man in a suit sped forward, using his dexterity to make it impossible for the base guards to intercept him.

He has managed to get the attention of the entire base, and has attracted most of the base's guards.

Meanwhile.

Outside the witches' courtroom, two ant-like figures quickly approached the console.

Moments later, a researcher suddenly noticed that his hand was raised uncontrollably, and when he looked closely, he realized that under his hand, there was a small figure running.

Ant-Man Scott.

"No!" The researcher screamed and flew out.

Then, near the guard by the cell door, the wasp suddenly appeared and easily knocked the guard down.

At the console, Scott returns to his normal body shape and snaps the button to open the door to his cell.

Suddenly.

The Witches' Inquisition slowly opened. (End of chapter)
