A retired reincarnator from a certain American film studio

Earth lies ahead, the Ancient One stands before you, all who come shall halt!

This is no joke.

but!

Gu Yi smiled.

Well known.

A weak person's smile is like that of an idiot.

But the strong just smile.

Life or death is uncertain!

"Mr. Lu is using me as a shield."

"Do not."

Luke looked at the smiling Gu Yi, but didn't laugh along. Instead, he shook his head seriously and said, "I didn't, I'm not. Don't overthink it."

Gu Yi lowered her eyes and sipped the tea in her cup.

"what is that."

"Cooperation can lead to win-win results."

"is it?"

Gu Yi raised her eyes and looked at Lu Ke: "Mr. Lu, how do you plan to cooperate with me?"

Luke looked at the Ancient One with a very calm expression: "Dormammu."

Gu remained expressionless.

"The Dark Dimension?"

"Yes."

"What's up with him."

Gu Yi chuckled softly: "He's a madman, but he's not a fool. He wouldn't go so far as to come to my death."

Luke's tone was also very calm: "Right now."

In the perception of the dimensional world, if you are mine, then you must be mine; if not, then either get out or leave.

Dimensions need no traitors, much less treacherous believers.

For the Vishanti, the Ancient One was the latter; in fact, she was a believer who sought to borrow the power of beings from other dimensions so that they could live forever.

This is something that the Vishanti cannot tolerate.

This is also the fundamental reason for Doctor Strange's emergence.

Rather than saying that Doctor Strange appeared to deal with Dormammu who invaded Earth at the time, it would be more accurate to say that Doctor Strange was used by the Vishanti to deal with the Ancient One.

Simply put.

If the Ancient One is Wang Mang, then Doctor Strange is Liu Xiu, the chosen one of the planes born from the "Vishan Emperor".

He didn't come for Dormammu, but for the Ancient One.

purpose.

On behalf of the "Emperor of Mount Vishan," we invite Gu Yi to ascend to heaven.

The Vishanti want loyal followers, not the Ancient One who tries to usurp their position and become their master.

Once the timeline belonging to Doctor Strange begins to turn, the Ancient One, currently known as the Sorcerer Supreme, will experience a geometric decline in power until she is replaced by Doctor Strange or dies.

This is why the Ancient One, who was suppressed by the Dark Dimension and dared not show herself on the border of Earth, had the courage to attempt to descend to Earth after Doctor Strange appeared.

Including Thanos, and the infamous Galactus.

When the Ancient One was around, they didn't dare to show their faces, but after the Ancient One left?

Tsk tsk.

The truth is, when the Ancient One was alive, the world was at peace; but after Doctor Strange was born, all sorts of monsters and demons dared to emerge.

Ok.

Comparable to Guan Yu.

After Lü Bu's death, Guan Yu viewed everyone as a scoundrel willing to sell their head for a pittance.

Luke is indifferent to Doctor Strange.

He does have a crush on the Ancient One.

Do not ask.

The answer is simple: mutual respect between the strong.

and so!

Lu Ke looked at Gu Yi and spoke frankly without beating around the bush.

"Dormammu, I'll take the hit."

"you."

Upon hearing Lu Ke's words, Gu Yi looked up at him with great seriousness, then shook her head: "No."

Lu Ke raised an eyebrow.

Are you that sure?

"Has the monk seen it?"

"Seen."

Gu Yi's expression remained indifferent.

Lu Ke frowned deeply.

I lost?

This is impossible.

Based on the timeline, Dormammu's arrival will not begin until after the Battle of New York next year at the earliest, which is the year after next.

Two years.

The power of the microcosm has already fully descended.

Will he lose?

Perhaps by then, he won't be able to punch the Living Tribunal or kick the five creator gods, but what about Dormammu from a mere dark dimension?

I wouldn't dare call myself a seasoned reincarnator if I didn't smash his head in.

"impossible!"

Lu Ke's mind raced, but he couldn't find a reason why he could lose, so he simply waved his hand and said, "Absolutely impossible!"

Gu Yi smiled and said, "Mr. Lu, you don't believe me?"

Luke shook his head and looked at Gu Yi.

"Will I lose?"

"..."

Gu Yi didn't answer, but looked at Luke calmly: "You know what I can't say."

She can use the Time Stone to observe every existing timeline.

But she cannot play with time.

Because when you play with time, time will play with you in return.

In a word.

I know what the future holds, but I won't tell you.

Luke couldn't help but stare at the expression on Gu Yi's face, trying to find a flaw in it to find a reason why he would lose.

Because it makes no sense.

unless……

Luke's heart skipped a beat, as if he had thought of something. He focused his attention once more and looked at the Ancient One.

Gu Yi's expression remained unchanged.

Quiet.

Peaceful.

They seemed to be indifferent to the world, or even detached from it.

Luke's thoughts raced.

According to the timeline, two years later, there was no reason for him to lose to Dormammu. Even if Luke racked his brains, he couldn't figure out how he could lose.

If the troop strength were 800,000 against 600,000, he might still say, "The advantage is on my side."

but……

Two years later, he paid Dormammu six hundred thousand for five million.

lose?

Even if I lie still, Dormammu can't defeat me.

unless!

Dormammu is uneasy about the timeline.

Lu Ke looked at Gu Yi, seemingly lost in thought.

Xu Wenwu, who was standing to the side, couldn't sit still any longer and looked directly at Gu Yi: "Master, we came here this time for the Earth..."

Gu Yi interrupted Xu Wenwu once again and looked at him.

"You want to know where the dimensional portals left behind when Hell took over Earth?"
