Chapter 160: Absolutely unreasonable, absolutely unusual
"You weren't supposed to come."
The bald woman's eyes suddenly opened, and she spoke slowly, her voice soft and tired.
Her yellow robe was tattered and covered in blood and dust. Visible wounds can be seen all over the body, and blood is still oozing slightly.
"But here I am."
Bai Ye said and looked at Gu Yi's forehead covered with fine beads of sweat.
There was a black-red sigil flickering dimly at this moment, and even from a distance of a few meters, he could feel that this sigil was exuding a dark, deep and powerful aura.
It was a trace from the dark dimension, and it seemed that she had used the power she had stolen from Dormammu's side for years.
But even this did not defeat the attacking enemy, this is definitely not something that a purple potato essence without infinite gems can do, Bai Ye thought silently, and his heart couldn't help but sink.
Noticing the look in Bai Ye's eyes looking at his forehead, the corners of Gu Yi's mouth pulled upward, and he said calmly: "I think, you are not the kind of person who has a psychological cleanliness for power, right?" β
"It depends."
Bai Ye took out a tube of pale yellow potion from his pocket, shook it lightly twice, and injected it into the ancient one who was leaning next to the altar.
"Hmm"
The Ancient One snorted softly, feeling the wound begin to heal rapidly, the blood stopped oozing, and the skin was smooth and healthy again.
She slowly stood up and smiled gently at the white night, "It's a miracle that you've come to this universe, and I didn't have any hope until then. β
Bai Ye smiled and shook his head, "Miracles and magic are not free, Ancient One Master. β
Gu Yi was silent for a while, and did not answer directly, but raised his hand and gently touched the mark on his forehead.
Then he turned his head slowly, his gaze above the altar. There, three ancient and stately statues stood, and from every angle, they seemed to look back at the people who were looking at them.
The first thing that catches the eye is a realistic tiger head. Its eyes reveal two distinct emotions: cunning and majesty.
Next to the tiger is a statue of a man, dressed in ancient costumes, with a resolute and vicissitudes of life.
Finally, there is a statue of a woman, dressed in a splendid robe, with a gentle and wise countenance, and there seems to be kindness in the eyes of the stone statue.
Bai Ye also looked at it, and he didn't need to be introduced by Gu Yi to know what kind of person this was, or what kind of god it was.
It is none other than the Trinity of the Magical God, Emperor Weishan.
The statue of the woman represents the goddess of truth, law, order, and justice, Otto, who is so powerful that the mage who worships her can greatly increase the power of the spell in her hand, no matter who it came from.
The tiger represents Hoggs, a powerful and mysterious entity from the ancient alien pantheon, who became acquainted with her during her journey to Otto.
That man was Agomoto, and he had forged a piece of equipment that was even more famous than his ownβthe Eye of Agamotto.
According to legend, the goddess Ossotu was moved by the joy of a blind boy and shed a tear and transformed into Agamotto, who was also the first generation of Supreme Mages in history and once joined the Ancient Avengers with Odin and others.
However, compared to the order-loving Hoggs and the gentle Arctic Chart, Agomoto is more emotional and fickle.
Whenever humans let him down, or succumbed to the temptations offered by demons and evil gods, Agamotto turned away from the hairless monkeys in disgust, not forgiving them until decades or centuries later.
He hated the negative traits of mortals, but at the same time loved them deeply, and in a sense he was the most human-like of the Trinity of the Visan Emperors.
After his death, his soul soared, along with his mother Ottou and Hoggs, to form the Vishandi, and thus opened a new chapter in cosmic magic.
"Ahem."
Silently recalling the information in her memory, Bai Ye looked at Gu Yi, who was a little distracted, and coughed lightly, it seemed that what she had just said reminded her of the past.
"Ah, I'm sorry." Gu Yi turned around and smiled apologetically at Bai Ye, "You're right, miracles and magic aren't free. β
At this, her eyes suddenly darkened slightly, but this emotion was quickly hidden by the Supreme Mage, and then she smiled and said, "Your help to the Holy of Holies will definitely not be forgotten. β
"Actually, we can talk about this later, I have another question."
Bai Ye waved his hand as modest, and then continued under the inquiring gaze of the ancient one:
"Is the Time Stone still in your hands?"
Hearing this, the bald woman beckoned, and a flash of energy flashing with mysterious light flew quickly from outside the door, as fast as a meteor streaked across the night sky.
When the energy stopped in the palm of the ancient one's hand, it turned into a round emerald green gem that shimmered, and the surface was extremely smooth, and there was not a trace of furrow in sight.
"Thanos didn't take it?" Bai Ye then asked.
"Nope." The Ancient One shook his head, flipped his hand and let the gem float to the roof, and then explained, "At first, I thought that Thanos' goal was to collect all the Infinity Stones and use the Infinity Gauntlet to complete the purpose of erasing half of his life. β
"But this time his behavior is completely different from the normal timeline, he just came to the Holy of Holies and showed unprecedented strength, killed a group of people, and then suddenly disappeared, leaving only his men here."
"And I put the Time Stone on Strange's body in the first place to protect it from falling into his hands, intending to send him out of this universe, and then you came."
After speaking, Gu Yi patted his tattered clothes and said helplessly.
She really didn't know why this Thanos was so weird, and she had never seen a mad titan like this in the future in several timelines.
But in a sense, this Thanos's behavior makes his name 'crazy' more realistic.
"But anyway," she sighed, and the gem floating in mid-air emitted a dazzling emerald glow, and that light spread rapidly, like a bolt of lightning, quickly covering the entire Holy of Holies.
"It's not just fate, and if Casillas had killed all of us, even Strange, I wouldn't have done it."
A powerful and mysterious energy begins to spread through the Holy of Holies, time seems to move against the current, and the whole scene begins to change.
The corpses of the Kama Taj mages strewn across the ground suddenly moved, repeating their actions before they died, looking like a strange pantomime was being played, their limbs fluttering and their heads shaking, and within a few seconds, they were returning to their horror before death, but their eyes were gradually filled with confusion and doubt.
Then, the ancient one flipped his hand to make the gem disappear, took a deep breath and said, "Only this once." β
Seeing this situation, Bai Ye touched his chin, judging from the current situation, this place has been restored to a cinematic universe with an early timeline.
Just what he wanted.
