Chapter 158 | A Unique Magical Genius.

Extra Chapter

...

The position of Kamar Taj and the Sorcerer Supreme had been clear from the beginning.

Unless Atlantis intended to blow up the earth, expecting the Ancient One to take the initiative to help was a pipe dream.

They have never considered the human world. If not for that, the Chitauri fleet wouldn't have invaded New York at all.

The moment the portal opens, the Sorcerer Supreme could have sent the first wave of troops away easily.

As for Loki's schemes and tricks, in front of the Ancient One, who has seen the official spoilers, it simply looked like a flawed and clumsy magic show.

"Ancient One, I visited the Sanctum today, just to show you how a large, well-prepared organization can cope with a serious crisis. "

Luke walked to the round window and said confidently.

In the Sanctum, there were a series of protective measures to ensure internal security.

For example, magic spells and magic traps were especially used to guard against possible intruders.

In addition, the building has an ultimate barrier, the circular window with four streamlines in front of Luke!

It's called 'Window of the Worlds,' and it is a powerful seal imposed by the Vishanti.

It's very strong and can protect the Sanctum from the ravages of supernatural forces and dark creatures.

Therefore, the Sorcerer Supreme often stood here and observed the changes of the world.

"Major General, you still want to convince me to prove that as long as you are prepared in advance, you can nip all the crises in the bud?"

The Ancient One shook her head and smiled, clearly not thinking that Luke could do it.

In addition to having a strong body, a master must also have a firm will.

Otherwise, the cost of casting spells and the attraction of the dark dimension would drag them into the infinite abyss sooner or later.

As the strongest among masters, how can the Ancient One be easily persuaded to change her mind?

"I have held the Eye of Agamotto for so many years, and I have witnessed the changes of the world, traveled in the long river of time and space, and experienced countless terrible wars. "

She said flatly, but in her tone, she showed great confidence.

"Tens of thousands of years ago, Asgard and the Dark Elves competed for the throne of the Nine Realms."

"Thousands of years ago, Odin and his daughter Hela blew the horn of war and jointly led the Valkyrie Legion to open up territory and conquer the world. "

"Looking back, the decisive battle between Asgardians and the Frost Giant started in Tønsberg, Norway."

"..."

The Ancient One, standing in front of the 'Window of the Worlds,' looked at Luke, who kept his smile unchanged, and whispered, "This is why I was indifferent to the world war and Atlantis. "

"A long time will wear away one's inner feelings. For me, life is like an endless, limitless cage that locks me in."

The Ancient One sighed, and her words revealed a sense of worldly weariness.

Like an old social worker who works overtime all the time and desperately wants to retire,

It was no wonder that later, she quickly transferred the seat of the Sorcerer Supreme to Doctor Strange.

Then he left earth by astral projection and ran to one of the five gods, the eternal big guy.

"The rich experience that exists deep in my memory has taught me that it is impossible to nip all dangers in the bud before they occur. When you eliminate a variable, it's likely to cause an even worse backlash."

The Ancient One concluded.

She disagreed with Luke's theory.

And she thought of the other's real thoughts.

If he can unite with Kamar Taj, he can deepen his connection with the world.

Even further, let Temple of the Three cooperate with S.H.I.E.L.D, led by Luke.

Then the young General's position will be strengthened again.

To put it bluntly, Luke wanted to seize power and tie the masters of the art camp firmly to his boat.

The Ancient One, who is accustomed to the big storm, didn't reject this practice.

But she won't accept it without good reason.

"There is no absolute truth."

Luke wasn't annoyed at the denial from the Sorcerer Supreme but smiled, "I would like to invite Ancient One to see a wonderful performance to test my theory. "

"This war about Atlantis?"

The Ancient One frowned and asked.

"Don't you intend to participate?"

Without Superman, the land world will have little chance of winning against the gradual landing of Atlantis.

"At least I won't be needed until the show is over. "

Luke replied meaningfully.

He had prepared everything.

"Major General, you seem confident. I have to admit that it aroused my interest in the direction of this war."

The Ancient One's eyes raised a bit of doubt. Since Luke created many branches of time, the world has become strange and novel to her.

But even if it were difficult to look into the future changes, when you think about it, if Superman didn't come out, Atlantis would have won without a doubt.

"So, want to make a bet?"

Luke's mouth turned up like a dealer in a casino, and he spoke with an enchanting tone, "I promise I won't make a move until Namor is pissed off and ready to die together. "

"What's the bet?"

The Ancient One asked with great interest.

"The opportunity to learn. "

Luke said with a sincere face, "In fact, I have always had a dream of becoming a master of the arts in my heart. "

The Ancient One smiled in dismay as she took two steps back and looked at her opponent several times.

"Only from the physical point of view, you have the basic qualities of a master. "

Upon hearing this sentence, Luke felt a strong desire to spit.

Why is the basic quality of a master judged by whether his physique was strong enough?

Is it really full of berserkers?

"As for the affinity of natural elements and the talent of magic ..."

The Ancient One paused, showing a strange expression.

"I didn't take the initiative to see you when you were wandering around at the entrance of the New York Sanctum because you were a blank sheet of paper at that time. Your absorption of natural energy and magic elements was almost zero. "

"To put it bluntly, you were totally unfit to be a master. However --"

"I have seen many geniuses, including talented people like Merlin. And now you could undoubtedly become one of them. "

"Frankly speaking, if I didn't have a better candidate, I might choose you as the successor of the next Sorcerer Supreme. "

Luke was a little surprised. Superdemon's template that strong?

Directly from rookie to magic genius?

But to replace the Sorcerer Supreme, forget it...

He knew that every once in a while, the Vishanti trinity would hold a Sorcerer Supreme battle.

In layman's terms, a battle royale.

All participants are locked in a small space, competing with each other with intelligence and personal strength, with no restrictions on the use of items and contracts.

The person who could persist until the end and wasn't eliminated could win the honorary title of Sorcerer Supreme.

This was a multi-dimensional and lively event!

Later, the Ancient One continued to be the winner of the Sorcerer Supreme contest for 22 consecutive years, causing the devils and demons of the hell dimension not even to bother to take the time to place their bets.

As time went by, this multi-dimensional 'World Cup' cooled down.

Luke knew very well that there was a price to pay for the casting spells in the Marvel world, and Sorcerer Supreme is bound to pay it as usual.

What good can come from borrowing from loan sharks?

He doesn't want to be chased by a gang of dimensional demons on his doorstep every day.

Why is Doctor Strange called the 'Kidney Deficiency Master' in Asia?

Because he always loses his strength.

When he's strong, he could stand shoulder to shoulder with the Ancient One; when he was weak, he couldn't even beat the Devil.

Moreover, the long-term use of magic caused Strange to suffer from severe gastric ulcers, kidney calculi, and other diseases.

Even though he is an excellent doctor, there is still nothing he can do about the stubborn disease caused by magic.

"Haha, how can I take on this great responsibility? "

Luke politely indicated that he didn't want the job and let the dedicated Doctor Strange take up his post.

"Well, if you really have no interest in being the Sorcerer Supreme. "

The Ancient One had some regrets.

If the young Major General had less desire for power and less pursuit of strength, he would definitely become a qualified Sorcerer Supreme.

Alas, it seems that her retirement should be postponed.

"If you want to enter Kamar Taj to learn, no problem! The magic door is always open, and no one would be turned away. "

The Ancient One nodded her head and said so.

"Now, Major General, what kind of a show are you going to let me enjoy?"
