I was watching American comic book short videos, and at the beginning, Iron Man was breaking down.

Chapter 91 Strange: I'd rather die than join Kamar-Taj

Marvel Universe 199999.

Stark Mansion.

"The 'Ancient One,' that magician!"

Tony was immediately drawn to this spoiler.

The Ancient One left a very deep impression on the playboy.

When Tony revealed the secrets of the Ancient One, he knew that the bald woman was no ordinary person and must be very powerful.

After all, someone who can open a spatial portal at will must be a big shot no matter how you look at it.

Their strength is certainly not weak.

And this spoiler completely confirms Tony's guess.

Those aliens who invaded New York were utterly insignificant compared to the Ancient One.

The Ancient One stood on the rooftop and casually waved his hand, and the aliens were wiped out one after another.

It was so pleasant and relaxing.

As for those "golden patterns" shot out by the Ancient One?

"That must be the Ancient One's magic!"

Tony's eyes sparkled with excitement, as if a door to a new world had opened before him.

A world of magic!

Whether it's the spatial magic previously revealed or the Ancient One's offensive magic in this spoiler, both brought Tony a completely new experience and feeling.

Is this magic?

What is the underlying principle behind its implementation?

Why does a huge amount of energy gather in the Ancient One's hand when he waves it?

Where does that energy come from? What is the source of that energy?

Even if it's magic, it should still follow the law of conservation of energy!

Energy is never created out of thin air; it only transforms from one form to another!

Tony firmly believes that even seemingly bizarre and magical magic must have certain patterns that he can analyze and interpret!

But for the first time in his life, Tony found himself at a loss when faced with something new.

They couldn't even find a corresponding theory to explain it in their minds.

"interesting."

"That's really interesting."

Tony's interest and competitiveness were completely aroused.

Admittedly, Tony doesn't yet understand the principles behind magic.

But the playboy believed that one day he would definitely figure out how to use magic!

After these thoughts flashed through his mind, Tony refocused his attention on the big screen.

His pupils immediately contracted sharply.

Hulk was instantly killed!

Was she taken down by that woman, the Ancient One, with a single palm strike?

Is the Ancient One's power really that exaggerated?

Even though Tony already knew that the Ancient One was very powerful and must be a big shot, he never expected that she would be this powerful.

What's so difficult about taking down those aliens?

Even Hulk looked as weak as an infant in front of the Ancient One.

It's worth noting that Hulk has also "appeared" on the big screen.

Even Loki, a prince from Asgard, was beaten like a dog by Hulk.

The Hulk's power is evident.

But even someone like him couldn't withstand a single palm strike from the Ancient One.

The Ancient One even knocked his soul out!

Tony truly felt that his worldview was about to shatter.

Not only were they shocked by the Ancient One's power, but they were also shocked by another astonishing fact.

So, the soul actually exists?

Tony, a top scientist, has always firmly believed in a scientific materialist worldview.

I've always scoffed at talk of things like souls and spirits.

They thought those were just nonsense that only ignorant people would believe.

Anyone with even a modicum of higher education would not believe such an absurd claim.

Little did Tony know that, it now seems, the soul is a real thing!

"This is a major discovery!"

While marveling at the sights, Tony also felt a growing excitement.

This is undoubtedly a very significant scientific discovery, isn't it?

If the existence of the soul could be proven, it would be a groundbreaking achievement.

In addition, another remark by the Ancient One also caught Tony's attention.

This plunged Tony into deep thought.

"You're five years too early? What does that mean?"

Why did she say that?

Tony frowned slightly, not quite understanding what the Ancient One meant.

Judging from the tone of the Ancient One, it's as if the Hulk came from time travel!

However, they traveled to the wrong time; instead of the intended timeline, they arrived five years too early!

The words of the Ancient One are not complicated; they should be understood literally.

But does time travel really exist?

Is it really possible for someone to travel through time?

This has always been science fiction, existing only in novels and movies.

It doesn't even qualify as a scientific hypothesis.

Is it actually possible to achieve this?

But then I thought about it again, and even something as magical as magic exists, even aliens exist, and even space travel is possible.

Even if it's time travel, what's the big deal?

So this is the truth of this world?

It's crazier and more expansive than I imagined!

India.

A rather unremarkable village.

"That's... Hulk?"

"No, that's not Hulk, that's... me! That's Banner!"

Bruce Banner stared blankly at the spoilers on the big screen, hardly believing his eyes.

Is it definitely the Hulk?

Not irritable at all, not angry at all!

Not only did he not smash everything he saw, but he also acted like a normal person, communicating and interacting with the Ancient One!

Moreover, this communication took place while the person was completely sober and rational!

Aside from his exaggeratedly large, green body, the Hulk on the big screen looks completely normal.

How is that possible?

Bruce Banner was genuinely shocked.

Since that accident, Bruce Banner has been engaged in a long and arduous struggle against the Hulk.

No one in the world knows the Hulk better than Banner.

To put it bluntly, Hulk is a beast!

A beast filled with rage, utterly devoid of reason!

If it's not released, that's fine, but if Banner gets provoked and accidentally releases the Hulk, it will definitely be a disaster.

An uncontrollable disaster.

Even now, after a long and intensive period of training, Banner has become relatively stable.

However, it can only control the Hulk to a certain extent, preventing him from coming out at will, and that's all.

If the Hulk were to appear, Banner would have no way to control him.

We can only offer mild intervention and hints to a certain extent.

But what does the Hulk look like on the big screen?

It seems as if Banner has completely taken over.

It seems to be the perfect state of combining the best of both Hulk's body and Banner's mind!

No, it's not just a possibility, it's definitely true.

After all, it was clearly shown on the big screen that the Ancient One had knocked Hulk's soul out with a single blow.

The Hulk's spirit that the opponent unleashed was actually Banner!

That's enough to explain the problem.

There's no mistake, it's definitely Banner's mind that has completely taken over Hulk's body.

This is exactly the kind of situation Banner has always dreamed of.

But is this state truly achievable?

For Banner now, it's like a dream come true.

However, considering the eerie nature of this large screen, even though the spoilers on it couldn't be verified, Banner couldn't completely ignore them.

So when Banner saw this spoiler, he immediately lost his composure.

They were all getting quite excited.

What if this spoiler is actually true?

Will I one day in the future be able to completely control the Hulk, just like in this spoiler?

Just thinking about it is so exciting!

There's one thing: the version of myself on the big screen appears to have traveled through time.

Regardless of whether time travel is actually possible—let's assume it is for now—the person you'd go to such lengths to find must be an important figure.

Who exactly is this Dr. Strange?

Inside Strange's mansion.

Dressed in a suit and tie, with his hair slicked back, Strange, who was on his way to the banquet, was momentarily stunned.

Because Strange saw spoilers related to himself again.

That green monster who could beat Loki to a pulp is actually traveling through time to find me?

What kind of ridiculous and absurd plot is this?

Is this a script written with your toes?

Alien invasion + magic + monster battle + time travel – is this just a hodgepodge of all science fiction elements crammed together?

Even the worst, most mediocre screenwriters in Hollywood couldn't write this kind of brain-dead nonsense.

There's a lot to complain about regarding Strange.

However, the next moment, considering that the large screen itself was like a magical spell, Strange subconsciously shook his head and sighed slightly.

They started to perk up a bit.

What does that inhuman old woman who teaches online on Mount Everest mean when she says Hulk came five years too early?

Could it be that I will join the Ancient One's magic organization in five years?

And receive the teachings of the Ancient One?

It should be right.

After all, the big screen clearly revealed that Hulk traveled through time to find his purpose, which was to obtain that "accessory".

The pendant that should have belonged to him ended up hanging around the neck of the Ancient One five years ago!

The logic behind this is quite obvious.

The Ancient One was clearly saying that the pendant would only belong to Strange five years later.

Considering that the pendant clearly belonged to the Ancient One, why would it belong to him five years later?

The answer is obvious.

Five years after that alien invasion, Strange will become the Ancient One's magical apprentice.

That's why the other party passed that thing on to me!

"How absurd!"

Strange couldn't help but chuckle.

Putting aside the question of whether the spoilers on the big screen are true or not, even if they were true, so what?

There's no way he would ever become that old woman's disciple.

Even if Strange were to die, die outside, or jump off a cliff, he would never follow that old woman to learn magic.

Wouldn't it be better to quietly be a genius doctor and live the life of a wealthy person surrounded by admirers?

You must be incredibly bored to become a magician.

Is that thing very profitable?

If it's very profitable, Strange might consider it.

Although Strange developed a natural prejudice against the Ancient One because of her Mount Everest teachings.

But to be fair, that magic is actually quite cool; it's practically a weapon for showing off, perfect for doing so.

From this perspective, Strange is quite curious.

As for other aspects?

Forget about it then, Strange wouldn't even consider it.

However, there was one thing Strange was quite curious about: what exactly was that "accessory" that the Ancient One was wearing around her neck?

Is it really possible that Hulk would go through time to steal it?

Hulk claimed it was a gemstone.

If that's the case, then it's definitely not the kind of gemstone you imagined, right?

Perhaps it's some kind of magic gem?

Asgard, the King's Palace.

"The Ancient One? She's a descendant of Agamotto!"

"There's no mistake, the one she's wearing around her neck is the Eye of Agamotto!"

While others didn't know what the Ancient One was wearing around her neck, Odin, the king of the Nine Realms, recognized it immediately.

He even couldn't help but show a look of reminiscence on his face.

Agamotto, he was once Odin's comrade-in-arms, a partner who fought alongside Odin!

However, Odin has not contacted Agamotto for a long time since Agamotto and the other two formed the "Vishanti Crew".

However, Odin was still very familiar with some of the symbols of Agamotto.

The magic system used by the Ancient One was one of them, and Odin recognized it as Agamotto's magic at a glance.

In addition, there is the Eye of Agamotto that the Ancient One wore around her neck.

It was exactly the same as what Odin had seen before, without any difference.

As for what is inside the Eye of Agamotto, Odin knows very well as well.

That was none other than the Time Stone, one of the six Infinity Stones!

So, besides the Mad Titan Thanos, are there other people collecting the Infinity Stones?

Or did this little guy named Hulk eventually side with Thanos and work for him?

Due to a lack of relevant information, Odin is unable to draw a definitive conclusion for the time being.

Regardless of who is collecting the Infinity Stones, the fact that they've gone to the point of time travel demonstrates just how fierce the battle for the Infinity Stones has become.

Putting everything else aside, just looking at this point alone, Odin could imagine the extent of chaos the world would descend into.

After all, the Infinity Stones involve far more than just one or two planets.

Instead, it will involve the entire universe.

Thinking about this, Odin felt an even greater sense of urgency.

We need to get that good-for-nothing Thor up and grow up as soon as possible!
