Undoubtedly.
With the streets being warped into a vertical position, Doctor Strange and Baron Mordo naturally lost their footing.
Both fell down along the vertical street.
The portal was right in front of them, yet they "missed it by a hair."
Next, Kaecilius and Doctor Strange engaged in a dazzling and breathtaking chase within the city.Street chases for others are centered around the street itself, with escape and pursuit following the terrain. But in the hands of these mages, it's completely reversed.
The subject of the street chase becomes the people, not the street!
Under Kaecilius' control, the entire surrounding world, whether it's skyscrapers or streets and bridges, everything is flipped, twisted, stretched, and reorganized according to his will.
In short, everything is like building blocks in Kaecilius' hands, being arbitrarily transformed as he pleases.The laws of physics are a joke here.
If Newton were to be resurrected, he'd probably die of shock.
Everyone in front of the screen was stunned, their worldviews challenged and shaken to the core. You can only say that the world of mages is truly unbearable.
And so, the chase continued.
Doctor Strange ultimately couldn't escape Kaecilius's clutches, and was tackled to the ground by Kaecilius.Casillas pinned Doctor Strange to the ground, his hands suddenly conjuring a transparent blade, and stabbed fiercely at Doctor Strange.
Just as Doctor Strange was about to die at the hands of Casillas, at this critical moment, the ground beneath Doctor Strange suddenly flew backward!
Doctor Strange was "transferred" to a distance by the ground, thus avoiding Casillas's fatal blow.
Without a doubt, other sorcerers had arrived to support Doctor Strange.
Boom boom boom!
Crack crack crack!Immediately afterwards, the world around Kaecilius began to reshape itself, with skyscrapers constantly moving and rotating, and various building frames automatically assembling.
An aerial plaza was thus formed.
And right in the center of that plaza, a person appeared, sitting imposingly.
The Ancient One!
Clearly, it was the Ancient One who had acted, saving Doctor Strange in time.
"It's the Ancient One, she's not dead at this time?"
Thor couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, and the others also had a look of astonishment on their faces.This situation is completely different from what everyone expected. According to everyone's speculation, the Ancient One was already dead when Doctor Strange received the Time Stone.
But now, Doctor Strange has the Time Stone hanging around his neck!
And the Ancient One is still alive!
Doesn't this mean that the Ancient One, the Sorcerer Supreme whose duty is to protect the Time Stone, passed the Time Stone to Doctor Strange when he was still a newbie?
This is too ridiculous, isn't it?
What about the supposed duty?
Is this what you call duty?This is freaking irresponsible!
Everyone was momentarily speechless, feeling a bit tricked by the Ancient One.
On the screen.
We see Kaecilius, with his followers, confronting the Ancient One on the aerial plaza she had constructed.
The Ancient One suddenly waves her hand, and a golden "magic fan" instantly materializes, ready for battle against Kaecilius and his group.
"This is real!"
Baron Mordo's voice suddenly rang out, filled with disbelief.But he saw that his eyes were fixed on the Ancient One, his expression agitated: "She did draw energy from the Dark Dimension!"
And at this moment.
A special mark symbol did indeed appear on the Ancient One's forehead.
And that mark symbol was on the foreheads of everyone in Kaecilius's group.
Obviously, that mark appeared because of the "ritual" of drawing energy from the Dark Dimension.
"So the Ancient One, like Kaecilius, really did draw power from the Dark Dimension.""Strange couldn't help but exclaim, with a slight sigh, "That's why the Ancient One lived for so long."
The audience in front of the screen wasn't too surprised by this.
This could be inferred from Kaecilius's words during previous quizzes, and now it's just been further confirmed.
But everyone won't look at the Ancient One with prejudice because of this, after all, their understanding of the Ancient One is too little, and any judgment would be one-sided.
Boom boom boom!
On the screen."The Ancient One and Kaecilius's group have already started fighting, and it can only be said that the Ancient One lives up to her name, her strength is indeed extraordinary.
Far from what Doctor Strange and Baron Mordo can compare to.
As soon as she made a move, the situation immediately reversed, and Kaecilius and his group, who had originally held the absolute upper hand, were instantly suppressed.
They were no match for the Ancient One at all.
Unfortunately, Kaecilius was too insidious, and he actually launched a sneak attack while the Ancient One was fighting.Condensed into a sharp blade, he pierced his own subordinate, and then struck the Ancient One's vital point.
The Ancient One clearly hadn't expected Kaecilius to be so ruthless, even killing his own people, and was caught off guard.
"This guy is too shameless, right?"
Even a small-time hoodlum like Star-Lord couldn't help but curse out loud with a look of disdain.
Even he wouldn't do something like that.
The others in front of the screen couldn't help but show their contempt and scorn for Kaecilius.
This guy is a complete villain.
Bang!At this moment, Kaecilius kicked the Ancient One hard, sending her flying into the portal he had already opened.
After passing through the portal, the Ancient One began to fall from high above the city, a height of dozens of stories, plummeting towards the ground.
Finally, she crashed heavily onto the ground.
After Kaecilius's deadly blow and now this fatal fall, the Ancient One was likely in dire straits.
Even the Sorcerer Supreme couldn't withstand such deadly injuries.The next shot shows a transition.
"Christine!"
"Christine!"
In the hospital hallway, Doctor Strange pushed the Ancient One's gurney, running frantically while shouting to "summon" his old flame.
Christine was as reliable as ever, and upon hearing the "summons," she rushed over to meet Doctor Strange.
"It's not an arrhythmia, it's myocardial contusion!" Doctor Strange explained to Christine as he ran alongside the gurney.
"Is it neurological?" Christine asked.That's right!
As always, bypassing the usual procedures to avoid complications, the Ancient One was rushed to the operating table and given emergency treatment as quickly as possible.
"Her heart rate is still dropping!"
"We need to get her oxygen immediately!"
"Get me a stretcher!"
"Her pupils are dilating!"
"No response, no brain activity detected!"
A group of people were busy working around the Ancient One, but the situation was far from optimistic, and was even developing in the worst possible direction.Doctor Strange stood in the crowd, but as if he had discovered something, he stared unblinkingly into the void.
It was as if something had appeared.
Then, Doctor Strange's body suddenly swayed.
A translucent phantom suddenly burst out of Doctor Strange's body.
It was Doctor Strange's soul!
To leave one's body at a moment's notice, one can only say that mages are capricious.
But next, everyone knew why Doctor Strange had left his body, because immediately after, everyone saw that the Ancient One's soul was floating away into the distance."What are you doing!"
Doctor Strange shouted from behind and immediately chased after her.
He chased after the Ancient One, passing through wall after wall, until they stopped on the balcony of a hospital office.
"Please, you're dying! You have to get back into your body now, or you'll run out of time!" Doctor Strange urged the Ancient One with a worried expression.
"Time is relative, and you haven't gotten used to the role of a sorcerer yet," the Ancient One said calmly.
She didn't seem to realize she was about to die.I've spent so many years peering into the future, and looking at this point in time, I might not make it through.
Master Ancient One continued to explain to Doctor Strange, revealing that she already knew she was going to die this time.
"I've prevented countless terrible events, but bad things always follow, and everyone reaches this point, stagnating."
Master Ancient One continued to say to Doctor Strange.
"Do you think you'll die this time?" Doctor Strange asked directly.
"Do you want to know your future?"Master Ancient One did not answer, but instead posed a counter-question.
"No!" Doctor Strange replied.
Master Ancient One swept a glance over, as if seeing right through Doctor Strange.
"Yes!" Doctor Strange immediately admitted.
"But I cannot see your future," Master Ancient One said.
But this sentence conveyed another very important piece of information to everyone. Doesn't this mean that Master Ancient One can see the future of others?
That's pretty impressive."I can only see the relevant possibilities. You are a kind-hearted person. Your excellence doesn't stem from a desire for success, but from a deep fear of failure."
"I am a successful doctor."
"That's also why you're not great. Arrogance and fear of failure blind you to the simplest and most important things."
"Such as?"
"The meaning of life is not about oneself!"
Doctor Strange suddenly looked thoughtful, as if he had been inspired or awakened."When you first came to me, you asked how I healed Jonathan Pangborn, but I didn't heal him! He did it himself, he infused himself with the power of space."
"So, he's been walking by magic?"
"Always! He faced a choice, to return to his life, or to dedicate himself to a higher purpose."
"Then my hands can be healed, and I can return to my old life?" Doctor Strange immediately asked from the side.These few lines of dialogue show everyone how Doctor Strange came to Kamar-Taj and became a sorcerer.
Obviously, Doctor Strange must have contracted some serious illness, the kind that ordinary medical means cannot cure.
After learning that a man named Jonathan had been cured, he followed the clues and sought treatment at Kamar-Taj.
This coincides with what Kaecilius said before, that people come to Kamar-Taj "with the purpose of healing."
"Of course you can, but the world will always have regrets!""I also didn't want to draw power from the Dark Dimension, but sometimes people have to break the rules to pursue what they believe to be a higher ideal."
The Ancient One's words echoed again, as she spoke to Doctor Strange.
And she pointed out that only Doctor Strange and Baron Mordo, united, could defeat Dormammu.
Everyone guessed correctly that the Ancient One died before Dormammu descended upon Earth.
And after explaining some necessary things to Doctor Strange, the Ancient One's soul disappeared in an instant.
"Beep beep beep!"Inside the operating room, the monitor emitted the flatline sound of a heart stopping.
The Ancient One, the supreme sorcerer of her generation, died on the operating table just like that.
The scene froze there.
Everyone in front of the screen couldn't help but sigh.
Through the final conversation between the Ancient One and Doctor Strange, everyone gained a more concrete understanding of this mysterious figure.
Although she, like Kaecilius, drew power from the Dark Dimension, she didn't seem like a fallen sorcerer, or a bad person, in any way.On the contrary, her interactions with Doctor Strange, in her words and actions, revealed her lofty realm and demeanor in every way.
Everyone could only say that the Ancient One was indeed a Sorcerer Supreme of her generation.
"I didn't expect the Ancient One to be killed just like that," Dr. Banner couldn't help but sigh, filled with regret.
It was truly regrettable that such a figure met such an end.
"No, the Ancient One wasn't killed, but rather she chose death herself!" Tony Stark said."Didn't the Ancient One say she had been peering into the future for so many years, watching this very moment? She knew all along she would be killed by Kaecilius!"
"If the Ancient One wanted to change all of this, it should have been easy, right? But she didn't, and instead let it happen."
"So, it wasn't that despicable Kaecilius who killed the Ancient One, but she herself who chose death!"
"Exactly."Star-Lord also nodded in agreement, "Obviously, the Ancient One didn't want to live anymore. If she didn't want to die, that Kaecilius shouldn't have been able to kill her."
The others present generally agreed with Tony Stark and Star-Lord's assessment.
It was a little hard for everyone to accept that such an awesome existence could be killed so easily.
