The battle between Abomination and Duval attracted a lot of attention.
"Looks like the battle is fierce, but who are you fighting?" Blade said, overlooking from a distant high-rise.
"Just ran into a Hulk copycat and said hello," Duval said calmly.
"If you could clean your pets and heal their wounds, maybe I'd believe you," Blade said.
Blade gave a creepy smile, pointing to the Xenomorphs around Duval: "Looks like you've suffered heavy losses, which makes it easier for your enemies to kill you."
"Don't worry, I'm not that easy to kill. If the enemies you're talking about are Vampires, I hope more of them come," Duval said.
Blade carefully examined the Xenomorphs, lost in thought. He could see that Duval had extraordinary confidence in the creatures he created, and besides, he had never seen the Xenomorph with the crown on its head.
The two chatted idly until the barely recovered Abomination roared and appeared on the street.
Blade looked surprised. His powerful intuition naturally felt a strong sense of threat from Abomination. In fact, even he would be in trouble if he was hit head-on by Abomination.
What really caught Blade's attention was the appearance of the small half of Abomination's body that had just been repaired.
"You did that?"
"I did that."
"How many Xenomorphs died on your side?"
"Nearly half."
"Nearly half died, and you still have six left. Looks like you've been preparing in secret." Blade was taken aback. It had only been a short time, and there were already a dozen? Among the six survivors, one looked very strong, and its shape was even more bizarre and sci-fi, obviously a new Xenomorph.
Paying such a heavy price to besiege Abomination and still failing only further illustrated Abomination's danger.
Next, the two saw Abomination wreaking havoc on Broadway, kicking cars down the street in a frenzy.
If it were just unmanned vehicles, Blade could still sit still, but when he saw civilians getting caught in the crossfire, he couldn't bear it anymore. He pulled out his knife and rushed up, using his powerful physique to sprint across the buildings, saving a civilian.
But Duval didn't move. He was waiting patiently, deeply anticipating.
This inexplicable silence surprised those who were paying attention.
"What is he doing?"
Dum Dum Dugan pointed at the screen: "Someone is about to die, but he's waiting?"
"Maybe it's fear. He fought that monster once before and suffered too many losses, so he's afraid and doesn't dare to continue fighting." Fury shook his head secretly.
Was that all? Having a timid heart wasn't necessarily a bad thing. At least he knew to fear power, which might make it easier to control.
While thinking, Fury manipulated the computer, downgrading Duval's estimated rating by two levels, reaching the level of "can be used but not worth relying on."
Fury was disappointed, but Blade wasn't. He was puzzled by Duval's silence, speculating about what crucial thing Duval had discovered.
From beginning to end, he had never felt any form of fear or shrinking back from Duval.
All of this entanglement ended when Doctor Banner jumped out of the helicopter and staggered into the Hulk.
Even Fury stopped paying attention to Duval and stared intently at the Hulk on the screen.
With the Hulk around, who would care about Duval! Did they know the value of the Hulk? Did they know how strong this thing was?
"Hulk!"
As soon as Abomination saw the Hulk, he became excited. The manic heart that had been stimulated by Duval completely erupted at this moment. He frantically abandoned Blade and began to run towards the Hulk, each step creating huge potholes in the asphalt road.
Boom!
The Hulk was knocked away.
Having received Mr. Blue's experiment and been injected with inhibitory drugs by Mr. Blue, the Hulk felt weak all over and could hardly exert much strength, so he was suppressed by Abomination in the situation.
The two giants punched and rolled, like two gorillas, turning the entire street into chaos.
Abomination became more and more excited, punching the Hulk one after another. In his chest, it seemed that something was brewing and about to explode.
"See that, Hulk, I'm stronger than you. I, Blonsky—Abomination, am the strongest!!" Abomination roared to the sky.
Pairs of eyes watched him, and this scene was uploaded to the Internet through various channels, detonating the world.
This was destined to be an iconic event, with individuals possessing extraordinary power recklessly displaying their formidable abilities, engaging in slaughter and destruction.
Watching the battle between these two behemoths, even ordinary punches and kicks could flatten sturdy cars, and solid buildings seemed like tofu blocks before them.
At this moment, many people on Earth who also possessed extraordinary powers noticed this scene.
"Professor, we can still make it if we leave now."
"No, we can't interfere. This is, in the end, an internal conflict among humans. Our arbitrary actions will stimulate the sensitive nerves of some people."
The members of the X-Men, watching the breaking news on television, had differing opinions and finally looked at Professor X in his wheelchair.
But Professor X looked surprised and doubtful: "Something is not quite right... That Abomination, it's not just him, there's another consciousness within him, and this consciousness rejected my mental connection. It's a very strange feeling."
This was the first time Professor X had encountered such a thing.
It was one thing for the Abomination to have another individual with an independent consciousness within him, but the most bizarre thing was that this individual who rejected him seemed to be deeply bound to a third, unknown mind? Was the Abomination really just a simple product of a failed experiment? Or was he deliberately created by some people...? Professor X hesitated and didn't dare to act. He could completely use his mental power to appease the Abomination and the Hulk, and make them stop fighting, but considering the dire situation of the mutants...
"Destiny said that in many futures, mutants are eliminated. I should be more vigilant and it's best not to do anything extra, and try to ease the relationship with ordinary people as much as possible."
Professor X's heart was very painful, and he dared not tell others about the countless futures Destiny had seen.
No matter how mutants develop, they only have a dead end? What should he do to be right, to be correct? But some people were much more detached than Professor X.
The Ancient One sat on the top of a snow-capped mountain, sensing information from many dimensions of the universe, judging the potential threats to Earth from beings in many universes, and she took the time to glance at New York.
"Well, reality has changed direction again, but this is not the work of extradimensional demon gods, but the result of Earth's own development."
As a Father-level being, and with the Time Stone, the Book of Vishanti, the Book of Cagliostro, and a bunch of other artifacts in her hands, her actual combat power was close to the single universe level. The Ancient One keenly sensed the subtle changes taking place on Earth, and she didn't want to interfere too much.
She didn't have the Reality Stone in her hand, and couldn't arbitrarily change some established facts into things that never happened.
More than that, she was more concerned about her debt ceiling.
"The Vishanti didn't ask me for benefits, and Cyttorak didn't either, so using white magic and dark magic is temporarily safe. The biggest problem is black magic..."
In the entire multiverse, all the magic used by all magicians is ultimately borrowed from the magical entities in the infinite multiverse—each magical entity is a multiverse-level god, a terrifying existence that can wipe out countless universes with a wave of their hand.
Since it is borrowed, it must be repaid, and various prices must be paid. No one dares to owe money to a multiverse-level existence.
What specific price to pay depends on the preferences of the various magical entities.
The Trinity Vishanti are relatively easy to talk to. As a magical entity condensed from three multiverse-level gods, they stand for Kamar-Taj in many universes, and the loan interest is also low.
The Ancient One has always had a good habit of cultivating ascetics, because ascetics can help the Supreme Mage share debts, but now they are not needed, and she decided to leave these ascetics to Strange.
Cyttorak is also easy to talk to. As the number one demon in the multiverse, located in the ultimate horror of the Crimson Cosmos outside the multiverse, he has always been relatively idle. Compared with chasing debts all over the multiverse, this big demon prefers to lie down. If you use a little of his power, he generally won't care.
The problem lies with black magic.
The Ancient One's black magic power was "borrowed" from Dormammu, the master of the Dark Dimension, and Dormammu's black magic, to put it bluntly, was borrowed from Chthon, the god of black magic.
Chthon's temper is notoriously bad, stingy, and very strong. Even if he is sealed, a breath can kill countless universes and obliterate those who do not repay their debts from the multiverse dimension.
So, the problem now is that the Ancient One took the black magic, but Dormammu is mainly responsible for repaying the debt to Chthon.
This made the Ancient One very embarrassed. She wanted the goods, but didn't want to pay the money. What should she do? She could only continue to make Dormammu suffer.
The Ancient One seemed to hear Dormammu's hysterical curses again.
Look, it's all Chthon's fault for forcing the noble Dormammu into this state.
"The future of this morbid universe is destined to be bleak. Even without some strange, inexplicable guys, there's still Strange... I don't know how long I can delay."
The Ancient One murmured, and casually cast a black magic spell to extend her lifespan.
In the Dark Dimension, Dormammu, who was trying to kill the Ancient One and devour the Earth, suddenly opened his eyes, filled with resentment.
Damn it, the debt has increased again.
