Marvel: Starting with the Glint-Glint Fruit

This magic is perfect for Matthew, but compared to the Seven Suns, his own energy is clearly inferior.

However, the problem is that ordinary mages cannot sustain the power of the Seven Suns for long, its power is limited, and it is too exhausting.

Matthew's advantage lies in the fact that he draws upon his own energy.

It can be said that this move is the most destructive of all his moves so far, whether it is single-target damage or area-of-effect damage, even surpassing the Conqueror's Haki Entanglement.

However, it seemed to lack power for Dormammu, who already had murderous intent.

However, he has more than just this one power.

The red light in Matthew's eyes grew brighter.

Just as his overwhelming aura was about to erupt, he suddenly froze, because he sensed that Dormammu's power was rapidly declining.

boom!!

When one side of the energy in the stalemate weakens, there is only one outcome: Matthew's golden beam completely suppresses Dormammu's power, pushing it back into the sky.

The dazzling light dispelled the darkness.

The dark ocean that had painted the sky was covered in gold, and Dormammu vanished, leaving behind only an angry roar.

"Damn the Ancient One!!"

A golden beam of light pierced through the heavens and earth, creating a huge hole in the sky. The golden energy swirled and rotated, creating a magnificent spectacle.

Fortunately, as Matthew stopped the energy output, the golden beam of light gradually thinned and shrank until it disappeared.

All that remained was the devastation scattered throughout this mirrored world.

Thankfully, this is a mirror world.

However, whether Dormammu can even descend in Kamar-Taj is a question.

Even if he could descend, Dormammu probably wouldn't be able to do anything about the magical barriers protecting Kamar-Taj.

After all, that thing could even withstand the Scarlet Witch after she turned evil.

If Wanda hadn't used illusions to manipulate the sorcerers' minds and amplify their fears, she would have had a very difficult time breaching Kamar-Taj.

"How does it feel to face a powerful dimensional lord?"

Just then, Matthew heard the Ancient One's gentle voice. He turned his head and saw the Ancient One, dressed in a yellow sorcerer's robe and wearing a hood, appear beside him at some point.

The Ancient One's aura was noticeably weak.

Matthew's gaze shifted from the Ancient One's face to her forehead.

It was a mark, the same mark as Kaecilius's, a mark left after absorbing dark power.

"You're just going to let me see this like this?" Matthew retorted.

“You are different from the King and Kaecilius.” The Ancient One shook her head.

“They regard light and justice as their faith, and I represent the leader who protects the light. They know that I draw on dark power, and their faith will collapse, and Kamar-Taj will fall into turmoil.”

Gu Yi paused here.

Looking at Matthew, he continued, "You have no faith, nor do you believe in the light. I am not your teacher, and I will not guide you in the same way I guided them to establish a faith."

"You need to have a broader and more mature vision."

Gu Yi thought of one of his disciples.

He was incredibly obsessive, no less so than Casillas. If it weren't for Matthew, this disciple would have gone to the other extreme in the future.

However, now is the time to guide them properly.

Chapter 71 Strange Isn't the Next Sorcerer Supreme? (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

Previously, the timeline was fixed, and no matter how the Ancient One changed it, it would only cause turmoil in the universe, so she was powerless to change it.

Whether it's Casillas or that disciple.

Now, however, things are different. Casillas's fear of life stemming from his wife and children's impending death, and his pursuit of eternity, inevitably led him to his downfall.

This stubbornness and extremism cannot be changed no matter how the Ancient One tries to guide her.

The other disciple was different.

Extreme justice, extreme enlightenment, and black-and-white thinking may be difficult to manage, but that doesn't mean they can't be guided.

As for Matthew...

Without any guidance, from the first moment she saw Matthew, the Ancient One knew that Matthew had a similar temperament to her.

Ambition.

The Ancient One's ambition was knowledge, a higher level, and Matthew's was the same, only their ambitions were slightly different.

But the Ancient One understood that someone like Matthew, who started with maxed-out mental strength, wouldn't be affected.

Therefore, the Ancient One's investment in Matthew was very open and aboveboard, letting Matthew know that she was investing in him, not taking him on as a disciple or using magical knowledge as a bargaining chip.

The two individuals are both investors and investees, and their relationship is also one of collaboration.

The dark mark that other mages wouldn't reveal didn't matter to Matthew; she believed that Matthew's way of thinking and understanding were different from those mages.

The perspectives of thinking from a standing position are on completely different levels.

As expected, Matthew was surprised by the Ancient One's explanation, but then he understood and said nothing more.

Hey, how about absorbing some dark power?

The Ancient One, for example, managed to renege on his debt to Vishanti, the god of white magic.

They even dared to be so self-righteous and clear-cut, the kind of person that even the Emperor of Vishan dared not say anything about.

Compared to that, what's a little Dormammu's power?

That's giving Dormammu face.

"I've faced the Dimensional Lords Mephisto and Dormammu once, so I know them to some extent now." Matthew was in a good mood.

Although he offended Dormammu and caught his attention.

However, being able to sense the difference in power level through Dormammu and gain a clearer understanding of one's own strength makes this risk insignificant.

Furthermore, Matthew didn't see any risk in being noticed by Dormammu.

In any case, Gu Yi will not be written out of the story before he grows up.

In the Sacred Timeline, to pave the way for Doctor Strange, the Ancient One orchestrated her own death to resign and travel the universe.

Now that Matthew has messed up the timeline, the Ancient One is unsure how things will unfold in the future.

Although Gu Yi had long considered resigning, she still had a sense of responsibility as the Sorcerer Supreme.

Whether it's ensuring Strange's growth to become the Sorcerer Supreme or ensuring Matthew's growth, she has to wait for someone to rise up and be able to protect the Earth before she can leave in peace.

Otherwise, if she leaves and the earth explodes, she'll be in real trouble.

"Your growth on the path of magic is rapid, but what limits your growth is still yourself, Matthew," the Ancient One reminded him.

Matthew has a much greater advantage than other mages, but at the same time, the energy mages use is borrowed, and if they are determined, the borrowed power can be unlimited.

But Matthew is different.

Matthew's power comes from himself. He has no shortage of magical knowledge, and his advantage in this area is no less than or even surpasses that of Strange. However, his upper limit depends on the amount of energy he has.

“I know, Ancient One.”

Matthew certainly wouldn't ignore the Ancient One's reminder; in fact, he already knew about this issue after he started learning magic.

The amount of energy in the Glint-Glint Fruit depends on the individual. As their life level increases, their mental and physical abilities also improve, allowing them to use more energy.

He has never stopped training in this area.

The old lady's talent is indeed outrageous. So far, she has not felt any upper limit or bottleneck, which may be due to her conscious efforts to cultivate it.

If all else fails, you can find an unclaimed, energy-rich dimension to use as an energy source.

He remembered Cyclops from X-Men; his eyes seemed to be connected to a dimension with endless energy. Maybe he should find some time to get an anchor point.

Without affecting his laser eyes, he could also create a channel that could be switched on and off at any time.

Of course, Matthew cares more about his own growth.

Seeing that Matthew was listening, Gu nodded and turned to look at the now-destroyed Mirror World Library.

It seems as if one is seeing the Book of Cagliostro, with a page torn out, in the Kamar-Taj Library of the real world through a mirrored space.

It's impossible for the Ancient One to be unmoved by Kaecilius's betrayal.

This disciple's talent is indeed outstanding.

Since she became the Sorcerer Supreme, few have been able to rival Kaecilius, but unfortunately, due to her past experiences, her mind became twisted and paranoid, and she became a servant of darkness.

Casillas believed he had seen the true nature of the world and that by siding with darkness, he could regain eternal life and power.

Little did he know that Dormammu had used him as a puppet. The moment Dormammu successfully descended to Earth, Kaecilius, the puppet, completely lost his usefulness and was devoured and assimilated by the darkness.

"Aren't we going to bring him back?" Matthew asked appropriately.

Ancient One shook his head: "Dormam granted him authority, allowing him to travel to other dimensions and conceal his presence, which I cannot track."

She is not an omnipotent god.

There are also many things that cannot be done.

"I should go now, Ancient One." With that, Matthew prepared to take his leave.

"Aren't you going to take a look? Defeating Kaecilius and even repelling Dormammu, you'll become their next Sorcerer Supreme," the Ancient One asked with great interest.

"You know, I don't like working for others."

Matthew was implying something.

The position of Sorcerer Supreme is not merely bestowed by the Ancient One or recognized by all the sorcerers of Kamar-Taj; it is not a nominal title.

It was also acknowledged by Vishanti, the god of white magic, who was to sign a contract.

"Okay, it seems I still have to find someone else."

Gu Yi wasn't surprised.

I was just saying it offhand. It would be great if I could get Matthew, but it wouldn't be a loss if I didn't.

Upon hearing this, Matthew raised an eyebrow. "Find someone else?"

Is this a change of personnel? Is it no longer the Doctor Strange who likes to cause trouble?

It's really possible.

After all, that arrogant and conceited sorcerer was just too much trouble. If it weren't for his exceptional talent and destiny, the Ancient One, with her steady personality, probably wouldn't have even considered him.

Now that the timeline has been broken, and with Matthew, a person with immense potential in the Earth faction, Strange is no longer the only option.

It doesn't matter anyway, whoever becomes the Sorcerer Supreme is none of his business, as long as it's not him.

Matthew casually opened the portal, stepped inside, and left.

Matthew left, the Mirror World shattered out of control, and the Ancient One's figure returned to the real world.

Chapter 72 The Ancient One's Guidance (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

The brief battle did not damage the library, which remained largely intact.

However, compared to before, there are now quite a few monks in the library.

Most of the mages completely surrounded the library, and even Kamar-Taj's magical defense barrier was opened.
