American comics: Something is wrong with this superhero world

Chapter 159: Ancient One injured?

After hosting the first and second events, Xiao Xian finally expanded the hell space to the size of three football fields, and the reserves of the world's origin doubled. Although it was still pitifully small for the dimensional lord, it was not too small at all.

With a knife stabbed into his heart, Xiao Xian tried to go to the world where Jigsaw and Amanda were. Although according to Kamar-Taki's knowledge, it was not easy for a dimensional demon like Xiao Xian to go to other worlds, and it was easy to be blocked by the world. Only those worlds without protection would allow dimensional demons to travel, but he had to give everything a try, right? Maybe the world where Amanda was was the one?
After choosing the flesh and blood of Amanda, Xiao Xian's soul did not quickly transmit to the world where Amanda was. On the contrary, it seemed to hit something in the middle of the way, and then returned to the interface for selecting the body.

"Okay." Xiao Xian curled his lips and returned to the Hell dimension. Fortunately, the Kamar-Taki database and the knowledge that comes with the Hell dimension contain many methods of disguising oneself as a native of the world and bypassing the world's will detection. Xiao Xian now has two informants there, so it is not too difficult to get there.

In fact, a direct invasion is possible, but that would consume a huge amount of world origin. At present, Xiao Xian’s world origin is indeed a little insufficient, and he may not be able to win even if he connects. It would be embarrassing if there is a hidden boss over there.

The soul auras of Amanda and the other person had long been recorded in the hell space. After spending some money to pull Amanda and the other person back, Xiao Xian threw a book and a box of gold in front of them respectively.
"I need you to help me with something."

"You command." Amanda and the other person looked at each other and said to Xiao Xian together.

"I want to go to your world, but I have encountered some problems and need your help." Xiao Xian said to Amanda and the others.
"The book contains some methods that can help me descend to your world. When you go there, try the methods in the book. If magic works, use it. If it doesn't, you can pray, perform sacrifices, and other methods. Anyway, you don't lack scum over there. The box contains gold, which is your activity funds and wages."

"We understand!" Amanda and the others said quickly, "We will definitely let you come to our world as soon as possible."

"Okay, go ahead." Waving his hand, Xiao Xian asked Amanda and the other person to return to their own world, and then changed the rules of the hell space to make it start detecting the pulling mode again.

Unlike the Jigsaw Space where people are pulled in whenever they are encountered, the principle that Xiao Xian sets for the Hell Space to pull in people is to detect first. After detecting the real name corresponding to the soul breath, the person will not be pulled in immediately, but will be reported to Xiao Xian in a unified manner. Xiao Xian will review it and confirm that there is no problem before pulling in.

Moreover, Xiao Xian also adopted different principles in selecting targets. Jigsaw would only pull people if they were the only ones he wanted, while Xiao Xian would consider whether he would lose money or whether they should die. Of course, if the other party was from another world, as long as he was not a big shot like Ancient One, Xiao Xian would pull him, even if it meant losing money. Not to mention anything else, the attached world coordinates alone would not be a loss.

Standing at the core of the space, looking at the light curtain in front of him, Xiao Xian was looking forward to pulling in people from another world. At this time, Gu Yi sent a message through magic.
"Tomorrow at 2pm, Mordo will join forces with Casillas and their disciples to rebel against me and try to steal the Eye of Agamotto. At 3:08:24pm, I will be stabbed to death by the magic knife. Remember to come here on time and help me avenge in front of everyone."

"Before that, please don't come to our real world for the time being, otherwise it may disrupt the future, and the Time Stone will not be able to see your impact on the timeline."

It's accurate to the second. After seeing Gu Yi's message, Xiao Xian mourned for Mordo and Casillas for half a second, and then sent a message to Gu Yi.

"Okay, I'll be there on time."

At night, the library of Kamataki was as quiet as ever. As the night guard of the library, Wang had become accustomed to the quietness in the dead of night. However, tonight, this quietness seemed to be disturbed by some subtle changes.

Wang's intuition told him that there seemed to be other life in the library. Wang used magic to detect the situation in the library, but unexpectedly saw an unexpected person - Casillas. At this moment, Casillas was standing in a dark corner, holding an open magic book in his hand, and muttering something in a low voice. A faint light flickered from the pages of the book in his hand, as if he was casting magic on a spell in the book.

Wang remembered this book. It was the book that Gu Yi had been reading frequently recently. He would read it every day when he had free time.

Looking at Casillas, Wang's face changed, but in the end he did not sound the alarm. He just quietly turned off the detection and continued to pretend that he saw nothing and closed his eyes to rest.

If anything happens to Ancient One, the successor Xiao Xian is annoying but easy to deal with, and Wang is confident that he can remove him from the position of Supreme Sorcerer.

If nothing had happened to Ancient One, the king would not have had the guts to covet the position of Supreme Sorcerer. As for outlasting Ancient One? The king felt that even his grandson's grandson would not live to see Ancient One's death.

But there was one thing that Wang was very curious about. Was Casillas that guy so bold that he actually thought of plotting against Ancient One? Where did he learn this magic that he thought was powerful enough to plot against Ancient One?

Of course, Wang didn't have high expectations for Casillas to plot against Ancient One. With Casillas' level, he wouldn't be able to plot against Ancient One even if he sold his soul to the Dimensional Demon.

But what happened next was beyond Wang's expectations.

At noon the next day, sunlight shone through the tall windows of the library, onto the quietly arranged bookshelves. The library returned to its usual tranquility, with scholars and magicians immersed in their respective research.

Ancient One suddenly walked into the library, and walked to the depths of the library amid the praises and respect of the crowd, then picked up the magic book that Casillas had cast a spell on as if he hadn't noticed anything.

In Wang's surprised eyes, Gu Yi seemed to be completely unaware of the abnormality of the book. When she turned the pages and tried to understand the magic theory in it, the black magic cast by Casillas began to take effect. The symbols on the pages suddenly shone with black light, and a powerful and dark energy was released directly from the book and hit Gu Yi.

The powerful aura of the black magic made Wang tremble involuntarily. Wang was very sure that even a trace of the aftermath of such a powerful black magic could easily break through the protective magic on his body and destroy him completely.

In Wang's mind, although Ancient One was extremely powerful, it was impossible for him to remain unscathed after being hit by such powerful black magic.

Sure enough, when the black magic dissipated, although Gu Yi was still standing, blood was overflowing from the corner of her mouth, and the blood dripped along her chin to the ground. This was the first time Wang saw Gu Yi injured.

It turns out that Ancient One is not invincible, Wang thought to himself as he watched the scene before him.
