Zombie Marvel? Luckily, I'm Superman!

Chapter 25 Journey to the Only Surviving Universe

Gu Yi waved her hand, "There are no 'what ifs.' You've already learned and come back; that's a fact."

"The reason we need a magic circle to go there is because it's a special method required to enter the library, but not to leave. Besides, even if you really can't learn teleportation magic, I'll reopen the teleportation magic circle in a week..."

"You know that too!" Lin Yi pouted, not quite believing this nonsense that sounded like she was trying to justify herself.

"Stop talking about that. Your breathing is unstable right now and you need to adjust it as soon as possible."

"Your current state... seems a bit off."

It wasn't just strange, it was downright eerie. He stood before her, yet Gu Yi felt as if he didn't belong to this dimension, elusive and unpredictable. When he looked directly at Lin Yi, it was more like looking through a barrier between worlds at a mysterious being.

It is ethereal and illusory.

"How can this be right? You don't know those forbidden knowledge and magic..." Lin Yi felt nauseous as he recalled the disgusting and twisted things he had seen.

"Forget it, I don't want to go through it again."

"I've packed all these things up. Like you said, I won't use them unless absolutely necessary, and I don't even want to think about them."

"You're a mage too, aren't you afraid I'll get lost in these forbidden spells..."

The Ancient One agreed with Lin Yi's feelings; most forbidden magic was disgusting, both in terms of the conditions for activation and the effects it caused.

"I was worried, but it seems the outcome is good now."

"You made the right choice. Of the magic recorded in the Lost Library, less than one percent will actually enhance your combat abilities. But even that one percent will help you in the future..."

Shaking her head, Gu Yi ended the conversation.

"Alright, let's not talk about that anymore. Is a day enough to adjust your state? Preparations for going to that universe are complete. Have you found the cosmic coordinates?"

Lin Yi didn't want to discuss this anymore, so he simply hummed in agreement and waved his hand, displaying a stream of magical information. "Is this the place, mage?"

Gu Yi was startled and quickly waved her hand to dispel the constantly changing information.

"Don't show this thing to anyone. Anyone who sees this information will permanently know the coordinates of that universe."

"If I'm sure I'm right, I'll rest for a day and we can set off at this time tomorrow." Lin Yi yawned.

He didn't feel too tired. He just needed a day to settle down.

Deep sleep can help him. Logically speaking, even Superman wouldn't be in much trouble if he didn't sleep, but Lin Yi is used to it, and sleeping is a pleasure for him, especially sleeping in the sunlight!

The current situation is not suitable for seeing Strange and Peter. Strange is fine, but Peter doesn't know magic, and Lin Yi is afraid it will affect him.

At night, lying in bed, Lin Yi recalled everything that had happened in the past few days.

There are too many unknown dangers in Marvel, and Lin Yi is used to speculating about everything using conspiracy theories.

He felt that the Ancient One was indeed gambling.

All of Gu Yi's actions after seeing him resembled a transaction that never mentioned the word "transaction".

She clearly knew the cosmic coordinates, but she still sent herself to the library.

Her intentions were simple: if things changed in the future, Strange wouldn't be able to handle it, so she offered him benefits in the hope that Lin Yi would be there for her in crucial moments.

But Gu Yi was also quite frank, directly stating that she might need him and the knowledge from the library in the future. This made it impossible for Lin Yi to completely dislike her.

No, maybe all of this was part of her plan?

I'm numb. Conspiracy theories are really torturous!

Lin Yi gave up thinking and decided to return to his true self.

This universe has become his second home, and he is happy to contribute as much as he can.

A day later, after a series of rests, Lin Yi finally returned to his previous state and felt a sense of reality. The vast amount of knowledge in his mind finally flowed steadily and no longer constantly interfered with his thinking.

Seeing the renewed humanity in the young man before her, Gu Yi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Strange was also ready. This time, he would travel with Lin Yi to the only universe that had survived the cosmic virus.

Oh right, and Peter the Spider...

I didn't want to bring him along, but this kid insisted on bringing up Stark and clinging to Lin Yi.

Lin Yi, of course, didn't buy into that, but Gu Yi suggested that Peter might play some unexpected roles.

The old riddle teller started again, and Lin Yi was too lazy to ask any further questions.

Let them come along, it won't make a difference if we have Peter too.

The three stood in the center of the Temple of the Oath, where the ground had been cleared and a larger, more complex magic circle had been inscribed with some kind of pigment that emitted a faint glow.

Entering the library previously required a magic circle, but traveling to other universes couldn't be done simply with a teleportation spell, especially in a mutated universe. The methods of the quantum realm were even less relevant; he could only roam within the timeline of his own universe and parallel universes.

The Ancient One directed the three to occupy the three corners of the magic circle at equal distances, while she herself stood in the center of the magic circle.

The Ancient One's expression was more solemn than ever before: "Gentlemen, I am about to activate the magic circle."

"You must remember that it was an extremely chaotic and dangerous universe. It is also the only universe that I know of that has survived a cosmic virus outbreak."

"There exist numerous chaotic and powerful beings born from the collapse of the rules there. Remember, never leave Earth!"

"Remember, act with extreme caution. If 'me' exists in that world, do not trust me easily. That 'me' might not help you, and might even see you as a threat. Do not easily trust any being that seems familiar!"

As the Ancient One finished speaking, the magic circle in the entire temple hall was activated, and the sudden light was even more dazzling than the sun.

A beam of light shot into the sky, completely enveloping the figures of the group, and the massive energy fluctuations caused the entire Niuyue to tremble.

"Lin, I feel like we've forgotten something..." Strange suddenly spoke to Lin Yi in the light. He felt a little awkward, as if there was something important that hadn't been confirmed.

Lin Yi tilted his head, then opened his eyes wide a moment later. He had figured it out, but it was too late!

The next second, the teleportation began, and the three figures blurred. The Ancient One's last, weak voice echoed in their ears, "Oh, by the way, this teleportation magic circle is one-way, and I can only activate it once a short time. You'll have to find your own way back. Good luck!"

"Damn it, again... this kind of thing?" Lin Yi's intermittent cursing became distorted and disappeared.
