Chapter 148 Secret Observation
Ancient One took out a simple old leather notebook and handed it to Johnny: "I will write down all my insights in it, which will be helpful to you.
Johnny took it with both hands respectfully and asked: "Magician, don't you really want to change your destiny?"
"No, anyway, even if I die, I will only go to the spirit world, which is just another adventure." Ancient One said calmly, accepting the arrangement of fate.
Johnny resigned. Since the other party didn't want to change his fate, he wouldn't force it.
Soon Kamar-Taj was attacked by Blacken's magician. Doctor Strange was injured in the first battle and managed to survive under the arrangement of his ex-girlfriend.
Afterwards, the Ancient One was killed by his disciples, kicked off a hundred-story building, died, and handed over the responsibility of protecting the earth to Doctor Strange.
Blacken's magician destroyed the three Holy Places, destroyed the magic shield, and Dormammu descended on the earth.
Doctor Strange went to the dark realm alone, restricted Dormammu with Time Gem, and went through countless cycles.
"Dormammu, I'm here to negotiate terms." Doctor Strange's words were like a curse.
Even if Dormammu had various ways to kill Doctor Strange, he would ultimately be unable to break through the time loop. What's even more helpless is that he retained his memory, so he played the boring game of crushing ants over and over again.
At first, I hoped to make the doctor scared, but the doctor was not afraid at all. Even if he died in another way, he would not continue the cycle.
I don’t know how many times I died, just trying to compete with Dormammu for patience.
Although Dormammu's dark realm has no time, it does not mean that it is not controlled by time. Time still works on him, and he cannot break through time.
Dormammu's darkness is very strong, but it is not as good as the concept of time.
After all, no matter how big the dark space is, it is just one space, and the concept of time can cover countless universes, and the power levels are different.
When Doctor Strange was fighting, Johnny did not take action, but observed: "The larger the scope of the concept, the more powerful it is. The concept of time covers all existence. Even if nothingness is not affected by the concept of time, the darkness born in nothingness is. They are also affected. Dormammu is just a consciousness that enters the dark space, and is naturally not an opponent of time."
"His consciousness has been swallowed by darkness, so there is nothing to do except spread darkness. It's like Juggernaut, who only knows running and occupying territory for the Crimson Lord. He has become a fool..." Johnny knew Dormammu To devour the universe and return everything to darkness.
There are many powerful people who believe in darkness, including the God of Symbiote, Dormammu, and Sithorn. They all borrow the power of darkness, spread darkness, and destroy life.
Their method of spreading darkness is also very simple, which is to devour. The symbiotic body, Dormammu, and Sithorn can all swallow matter and bring darkness.
The power shown by Dormammu is indeed instantaneous. If Doctor Strange hadn't controlled time through the Time Gem, the earth would not have been able to hold on.
Johnny knew very well that he was no match for Dormammu. The borrowed power is not enough to shake Dormammu. Even if Odin's divine power can repel Dormammu, it cannot kill him.
"According to the notes of the Ancient One magician, it is difficult to control the power of Dormammu because the power of darkness is unruly, and one must have strong willpower to avoid being swallowed by darkness. Darkness is born by swallowing all light and not reflecting light. Human beings Souls and spirits will be absorbed." Looking at Dormammu's performance, Johnny could understand the horror of darkness.
The reason why Johnny can observe everything that happens within the time loop is because he has the Mind Gem. Mind Gem can project his consciousness to any area. Time loop is effective for matter, but not so effective for mind. Johnny uses the artifact of Vibranium to observe the cycle of dark space through his mind.
"Other powerful people in the Level Universe can only use artifacts to observe." Johnny felt that his own magic power was no match for him: "What is recorded in the Ancient One's notes is that she borrowed the power of darkness.
Then the Earth's shields were connected together, hiding the Earth and resisting Dormammu. If the Ancient One learns the "Book of Darkness", it is not impossible to swallow Dormammu, but the collapse of sanity is inevitable. Or borrow "The Book of Emperor Weishan" and let the book give you a way to deal with the crisis. "
The most amazing thing about "The Book of Weishan Emperor" is not that it records all the white magic, but that it can deduce a feasible solution to the crisis based on the crisis.
This is also in line with the idea of white magic, using existing power combinations to maximize power.
"Perhaps we can block Dormammu by borrowing the holy light from heaven." Although Johnny could not confront Dormammu head-on, he could give two plans to block Dormammu. For example, swallowing, gambling on the possibility of consciousness being swallowed by darkness, swallowing Dormammu. Or just borrow the power of heaven to provoke a war between the Holy Light and the Darkness.
"The Ancient One magician said it well, if you want to defeat a strong enemy, you need to pay a price. Without sacrifice, there is no victory." This is the psychological construction that Ancient One made before borrowing the power of darkness. In the end, he borrowed darkness to protect the earth, and he also without crashing.
Facing a powerful enemy like Dormammu, Johnny can't escape unscathed. Fortunately, it's not his turn to fight Dormammu. He only needs to observe Dormammu's darkness secretly.
In the countless cycles of killing Doctor Strange, Dormammu used a variety of magic, which were all the powers he devoured, in a variety of ways.
These magics are so complicated that Johnny almost becomes Dormammu's disciple. Mastering so much magic "is really amazing.
"Sure enough, the rebellion of the absorption system is incredible." Johnny continued to use Mind Gem's powerful analysis ability to analyze these powers to strengthen his magic level.
The Ancient One magician died respecting his fate, and now the magician has entered a vacancy period. The powerful spell dies and new magicians fail to grow. In this gap, Johnny is the strongest magician on earth. Before Scarlet Witch and Doctor Strange grow up, he must protect the earth.
"Dormammu!" Doctor Strange is resurrected again.
Dormammu has realized that no matter how many times he kills the opponent, this annoying cycle will not stop, and his darkness has been intervened by the terrible time.
This cycle makes no sense, it's fun at first, then it's anger, then it's just numbness.
"Okay, okay, tell me your conditions." Dormammu was finally willing to talk.
"Take your followers and never return to Earth." Doctor Strange said this, and the condition was simple.
Dormammu no longer wants to stay, and has no interest in the earth anymore. It can be said that he came here with pleasure and returned with disappointment. So he won't lie to Doctor Strange, he just wants to leave this annoying guy quickly: "Okay!"
All the believers turned into a puff of black smoke and were sucked into the dark dimension. Dormammu turned around and left, never wanting to look at the annoying Doctor Strange again.
"The Dark Lord is so annoying. Doctor Strange is also a talent." Johnny was also very impressed: "I have seen so much black magic. It's really good and I'm very inspired."
Dormammu left, Doctor Strange used Time Gem to repair the Holy Place, and everything returned to normal. The Avengers did not know that the darkness from the magical dimension almost destroyed Earth Ten.
Everything is guarded silently by the magician.
Johnny ranked the powers he saw: poison, hunger, fear, pain, blood donation, weakness...even light, heat, soul, alchemy...
Dormammu also cultivates both black and white, absorbing a large amount of white power and can still use it. The magical combination of different powers produces different effects.
At the same time, Johnny also observed Doctor Strange and saw how his body collapsed after suffering these injuries. This is also of great research value. Everything is recorded in a small book. "It is all knowledge and experience."
