Peggy Carter said bluntly: "How we choose is our business. If you want to destroy the entire universe and Rory, that's your business too. What we have to do is choose what we think is right. There is no conflict."

If Ancient One really didn't care, she wouldn't appear in front of these superheroes.

The Ancient One's plan has been laid out, but the appearance of the evil Strange destroys the Ancient One's plan.

One option is to gather the power of the multiverse to deal with Rory as planned before, and the other option is to wait for the destruction of the universe and let Rory disappear with the universe.

But now it seems that neither of the two options is likely to work.

Chapter 256 Darkness Comes

The feedback from the Multiverse Supreme Sorcerer Organization was not very good, and many superheroes were unwilling to cross the multiverse to participate in this inexplicable war.

This means that it will take more time to mobilize more people to deal with Luo Rui, but what Master Ancient One lacks most now is time.

Another way is to guide the dark lord Dormammu to come. As long as Dormammu destroys the universe, Rory will naturally die.

The premise is that someone can restrain Rory and prevent him from finding the evil Strange and escaping the universe before the universe is destroyed.

If Luo Rui escapes and the universe is destroyed, she, the Ancient One, will be the sinner who murdered trillions of lives.

So Ancient One appeared at this superhero gathering with the purpose of getting help and buying her more time.

As for why Gu Yi knew about this voting meeting, of course it was not Gu Yi who predicted it, but someone informed him in advance.

However, Peggy Carter was determined to stand on Rory's side.

Master Ancient One said helplessly: "Our universe has been abandoned. Destruction is only a matter of time. The best outcome is to drag Luo Rui down with us to be buried together."

Peggy Carter drummed her fingers on the table and said, "Sir, everything you've said is just your own personal opinion. You haven't provided any compelling evidence. Rory, however, has provided solid evidence. I personally witnessed Steve's transformation into a zombie in another universe. I can't abandon the world I need to save just because of a prophecy."

This is the problem. Ancient One has no way to prove something that has not happened yet. This is also the main reason why the Supreme Sorcerer Organization of the Multiverse cannot convince the superheroes of their respective universes to come and help.

Steve then said, "Peggy, maybe we should be more patient to understand the Ancient One's prophecy. What if it really happens? And since Rory appeared, the world seems to be in constant trouble."

Steve did not choose Ancient One, but took a middle approach to find a solution that would satisfy both parties.

The first thing to do now is to make Peggy Carter believe the Ancient One's prophecy, and then persuade the Ancient One to cooperate with Rory to jointly maintain the safety of the universe.

If Luo Rui is a good person, everyone will work together to solve all the problems. If Luo Rui is not a good person, then we will solve all the problems together with Luo Rui.

The Scarlet Witch, who was sitting at the end of the conference room, suddenly asked, "Ancient One, what are you going to do with those who don't want to die?"

This universe is a cage that traps Rory, and it is also a cage for Scarlet Witch Wanda.

Strange from the Celestial Island Universe used the Book of Vishanti to strengthen the seal, making it impossible for Scarlet Witch Wanda to leave.

She had finally found Vision, and she didn't want to leave him to be buried with Rory.

Gu Yi remained silent, perhaps she was thinking, or perhaps silence was the answer she gave.

"What should I do? Of course I'll leave all of you behind to be buried with me!"

A burst of blue mist dissipated, and Rory appeared out of thin air in the conference room, smiling as he answered Scarlet Witch's question on behalf of Ancient One.

Ancient One said with a sullen face, "Luo Rui, stop struggling in vain. This is the fate of every Destroyer, and you will be no exception."

The best answer is that the Time Management Bureau did not show up.

The universe where the Destroyer exists will eventually dissipate, and along with it will dissipate the Destroyer that will bring danger to the universe.

Rory shrugged, "Maybe I'm different?"

"No one can be an exception." Ancient One said firmly.

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sudden flash of lightning and thunder in the sky outside the Triskelion Building. The sky was clear in the previous second, and the next second the sun suddenly disappeared and it became completely dark.

Everyone, including Luo Rui, stood up and looked outside, and found that a huge upside-down vortex had appeared in the sky at some point.

The black vortex gradually expanded, covering the entire Washington.

As it expanded, the center of the vortex began to tear apart, and soon the dimensional barrier was torn to pieces. Even with the naked eye, one could see the magical dark dimensional space on the other side of the vortex center.

Luo Rui was stunned at first, then looked at Gu Yi in shock.

Dormammu of the Dark Dimension is one of the seven lords of the multiverse. He abandoned his physical body and merged with the dimensional space to become a being of a higher dimension.

Dormammu did not descend to the Sanctuary of the Holy Trinity in Hong Kong, but to Washington. Moreover, the Ancient One did not die at the hands of Kaecilius, and the Time Stone was not given to Strange. This is enough to show that it was the Ancient One who controlled all this.

Rory didn't expect that Ancient One would be so cruel that he would rather let the dark lord Dormammu occupy the universe than kill him.

"Ancient One, you actually used the entire universe as a price to get rid of me. You are really cruel."

Peggy Carter immediately asked, "Rory, do you know what this is?"

Luo Rui snorted, "Dormammu, the Lord of the Dark Dimension, is one of the most powerful lords under the Creator God and the most dangerous existence in the multiverse. He will devour every universe that enters."

Peggy Carter then realized the seriousness of the problem, but before she could speak, Steve on the other side suddenly shouted: "Master Ancient One, this is not our plan!"

The next moment, everyone turned their shocked gazes to Steve Rogers.

Ancient One said calmly: "There is no so-called plan. The only plan is to keep Luo Rui here forever."

Luo Rui said with a gloomy face: "You want to keep me here? You are dreaming!"

Ancient One chuckled: "First, you should deal with Dormammu before you talk about other things."

Rory vs. Dormammu? Unless Rory is still asleep.

Although Rory can be considered a powerful being at the level of the Father of the Universe, standing in front of Dormammu is as ridiculous as a newborn baby fighting Superman Gold.

The two of them are not in the same dimension at all.

Strange used the Infinity Stones countless times, and Dormammu was annoyed and left instead of being defeated.

Even though the Ancient One only secretly absorbed power from the dark dimension, after absorbing the power of the dark dimension, the Ancient One became one of the strongest people in the universe, but the little power she absorbed did not even attract Dormammu's attention.

These are enough to show how terrifying Dormammu is.

After Gu Yi smiled faintly, he opened the portal and prepared to leave. Just as he was about to walk towards the portal, the portal in front of him suddenly disappeared.

Turning around, he discovered that Rory's raised right hand was glowing with the red power of the Reality Stone.

"Want to leave? Haha, I can't beat Dormammu, but can I beat you?!"

Gu Yi's face changed, and he immediately cast a spell with both hands and then pushed hard, and the mirror space spell immediately rushed towards Luo Rui.

The red color of the reality gem in Luo Rui's right hand disappeared and turned into a purple power gem, which absorbed all the mirror space spells and then transformed it into a one-meter-thick energy ray that blasted towards Ancient One.

'Rumble'

A hole was blown directly into the Triskelion Building, and countless steel bars and concrete fell from the sky, smashing many facilities in front of S.H.I.E.L.D.

Although Ancient One released a magic shield to block the attack, he was still knocked out by the huge inertia.

He cast a levitation spell and slowly landed on the ground. When he looked up, he saw Luo Rui walking out of the space teleportation.

"Rory, give up resistance."

Now Luo Rui seemed to be venting his anger, taking out all his rage on Gu Yi.

"If I have to die, you should die first!!!" Luo Rui roared, and his lower body turned into black mist and rushed in front of Ancient One. The energy of death spread out instantly, covering Ancient One like a big net.

Ancient One was worthy of being the strongest Supreme Sorcerer, and he immediately counterattacked Luo Rui.

However, the energy used was not orange magic energy, but the power of the dark dimension.

The emergence of dark forces immediately attracted the attention of Dormammu in the dark dimension, and the inverted vortex in the sky accelerated again.

The power of darkness and the power of death confront each other, and Rory and Ancient One collide with each other.

The Guardian Mage's weak body made him good at close combat, but he died in close combat. Luo Rui did not choose to continue to fight against Ancient One's long-range spells, but came directly in front of Ancient One.

'boom'

After a confrontation, Ancient One, who was beaten out of the Triceratops Building, was beaten back into the Triceratops Building by Luo Rui again.

"Huahua" sounded, shattering several panes of glass, and then hitting a wall hard, causing cracks.

Gu Yi groaned, gritted her teeth and swallowed the discomfort in her body, then mobilized more dark power again, not only her own, but also the dark power overflowing from the vortex in the sky.

Feeling that his power was being stolen once again, an angry roar suddenly came from the vortex in the sky.

Chapter 257: Ancient One's Death and the Whereabouts of the Gemstone

To be honest, Ancient One is really strong, and it would be difficult for Rory to defeat him without using the Infinity Stones.

But the bad thing is that although Ancient One is a mage, he actually likes close combat and is inexplicably confident in his close combat skills.

Luo Rui possesses a high-level gene sequence, and his body is so strong that he is almost invincible. He has also learned ancient Chinese martial arts.

He mobilized the strength of every muscle and bone in his body, exerting 120% of his strength, and beat Gu Yi back step by step.

And the dark dimension power that Ancient One was proud of had no advantage at all in the face of Rory's power of death.

bang

One of the load-bearing columns of the Triskelion Building was shattered, and the entire building began to shake.

Seeing this, Peggy Carter immediately shouted to the superheroes in the conference room: "Help evacuate the crowd and leave this building immediately!"

The power of Rory and Ancient One is so terrifying that the aftermath of the battle can easily destroy the building.

The superheroes were also very capable and rescued everyone before the Triskelion Building collapsed completely.

A group of people stood in the distance, looking at the ruined Triskelion Building, feeling mixed emotions.

Peggy Carter finally had time to question Steve, "Is this why you chose Ancient One?"

"No! Peggy, this is not what I want."

It's true that Steve is kind and just, but he is too hesitant, and every time he hesitates when making a decision, it will lead to worse consequences.

Peggy Carter has been the director of S.H.I.E.L.D. for decades and has long lost her hesitation. Decisiveness is the most important quality a director needs.

Steve glanced at Vision who was standing next to Scarlet Witch, opened his mouth but ultimately said nothing more.

At this moment, the ground suddenly shook.

After a loud bang, a figure flew out from under the ground and fell heavily to the ground.

'flutter'

The bald Ancient One in the yellow wizard robe spat out a mouthful of blood.
