The soul-state Banner silently looked at Noah and Ancient One. At this moment, he had no idea what to say.
After a long while, he finally sighed: "It seems that different worlds indeed have various different situations. I apologize, I have never heard of either of your names in our world, so I had no idea who you truly were."
"It's not surprising." Ancient One smiled: "Every similar parallel world is actually the same at first, but the reason they become parallel worlds is because of the appearance of some different people or events, which makes them subtle and unimaginable, thus completely deviating from the original predetermined course."
Saying this, Ancient One turned to look at Noah.
Clearly, it was because of Noah's appearance that everything had become so 'off-track,' and the development of it all seemed to be for the better!
This Banner before them was clearly a world that was 'completely following its predetermined course.' And their world had likely already suffered Thanos's attack, which was why he was seeking other methods to save his world.
What Ancient One found interesting was that the potential of these guys was indeed good. Although she hadn't seen the others, just by their use of technology to achieve things beyond the tenth tier traversing quantum channels and freely entering other parallel worlds she could conclude that these people would be truly impressive in the future.
Unfortunately, no matter how impressive, Ancient One had no intention of giving the Time Stone to Mr. Banner.
Their world, to put it plainly, was completely different from her own. For example, their world's Sorcerer Supreme was Strange, but in this world, Ancient One clearly had more options!
Noah Finnell, this boy she had watched grow up, was the 'most unique existence' in this world!
His existence had made the 'predetermined course' of this world blurry. One could say that if Noah did well, what happened in this Banner's world wouldn't be repeated in this world.
Not to mention that far, simply on the choice of Sorcerer Supreme, Ancient One had already made her decision. In her opinion, Noah was indeed far more suitable than Strange, who would only arrive at Kamar-Taj in at least four years or more!
Not to mention Noah's contributions to the global magical community, which had given him enormous influence. His influence alone within Kamar-Taj already surpassed most people, and this boy's magical talent was incredibly remarkable, plus he had experience as a Sanctum Guardian.
It could be said that from every aspect, Noah was the best choice! Ancient One felt fortunate to have met Noah and personally taught him for decades, allowing him to grow to his current level. Otherwise, Ancient One might have had to choose the 'predetermined course' method, just like her counterpart in that world, this Banner.
Thinking of this, Ancient One sighed: "I apologize, Mr.
Banner, I'm afraid I cannot help you. Perhaps you can try looking in other parallel universes."
"Is... is that so?" The soul-state Banner's face showed deep disappointment, but he still tried a last resort: "But, I don't have any more Pym Particles, and in our world, Strange chose to give the Time Stone to Thanos."
"Hmm?" Ancient One was momentarily stunned: "You mean, Strange personally gave the Time Stone to Thanos? That was his choice?"
"Yes!" The soul-state Banner nodded forcefully: "Tony told me that the result he got from simulating it thirty million times was that it was the only way."
"Is that so..." Ancient One seemed lost in thought. She lowered her head and looked at the gem on her chest, falling into contemplation.
Noah, standing by, could only shake his head as he watched this scene.
Whether Ancient One was willing to give the gem to this Banner was not something Noah could decide. The best outcome would probably be that in the blink of an eye, this Banner would return the gem. This didn't conflict with Noah's original idea. If things developed this way, Noah wouldn't care.
But Noah was worried that this guy came here purely by accident, meaning he had no coordinates to return. If this guy couldn't find his way back, then Noah would have been dragged into a mess by him!
Although doing so would reduce trouble in this world at least Thanos would never be able to snap his fingers who knew if this would lead to more unpredictable consequences later on?
Fortunately, Ancient One's final decision relieved Noah.
Ancient One looked up and said seriously: "I apologize, the Sorcerer Supreme of our world will likely not be Strange. And your arrival in this world was accidental; you cannot guarantee that you can find your way back, so I cannot take that risk."
"Al-alright." The soul-state Banner sighed helplessly: "I apologize for disturbing you all. It seems I'll just have to find another way."
At this moment, the soul-state Banner felt utterly disheartened. Noah could see that this guy was in a deep state of inner collapse. But there was nothing to be done.
Noah and Ancient One weren't great saints who would gamble their own world's future to save others. Please, that's not something a wizard would do!
However, just when the soul-state Banner felt most helpless, Ancient One spoke again: "Actually, I have two ideas that might help you. Would you like to hear them?"
"Hmm?" The soul-state Banner looked back slightly, then forced a smile: "Perhaps. Please tell me."
The soul-state Banner clearly didn't think Ancient One's methods would be effective, as Ancient One had explicitly rejected the only known solution. Banner couldn't think of any other way. In his view, these were just words of comfort.
Ancient One didn't mind and said directly: "First method, Noah, are you familiar with Hank Pym?"
"Yes." Noah nodded. He immediately understood Ancient One's intention: "Mr. Banner, you need Pym Particles, right?"
"Of... of course." The soul-state Banner nodded, then asked with some surprise: "You know Mr. Pym? Can you get
Pym Particles?"
"Yes, it's not a difficult thing for me." Noah nodded.
Indeed, it wasn't difficult at all. If he wanted, Hank Pym
would probably even give him the formula.
"That's great!" The soul-state Banner finally brightened up: "What are we waiting for?"
"Don't be in a hurry, Mr. Banner." Ancient One interrupted Banner at this moment: "There's also a second option. Aren't you going to listen?"
"I apologize, Ancient One, please forgive my abruptness."
The soul-state Banner also noticed his impetuousness. He took a deep breath and then slowly said: "Please, Master Sorcerer."
"Very good." Ancient One nodded, then after looking at Noah, she said with extreme seriousness: "The second method is for you to go back directly. I will record your passage. When my disciple reaches a certain level, I will send him personally with the Time Stone to your world
to help you solve this trouble!"
"What?" This time, Noah and the soul-state Banner simultaneously jumped in surprise!
What kind of idea was this?
The soul-state Banner and Noah exchanged glances.
Instantly, the soul-state Banner felt that this young man, who looked to be in his early twenties, was incredibly unreliable! He truly didn't understand what this Ancient
One meant by letting a young man do such a thing?
Noah felt similarly; he truly didn't understand what Ancient One was thinking. He was now painstakingly planning and preparing all of this, all to eliminate Thanos or make the "galactic population control committee" abandon their plan. But now, Ancient One actually wanted him to go confront Thanos directly?
What a joke!
Noah knew their actions would be exposed, he just didn't know which world's Thanos would find out and descend upon their world. At that point, it would truly be a
head-on confrontation with Thanos!
Noah rejected this approach from the bottom of his heart. Just imagine facing Thanos with that lineup a fat Thor, a careless Carol who becomes irrelevant, and a similarly irrelevant Scarlet Witch. Even if he went, he'd probably just let Tony snap his fingers.
Without hesitation, Noah and the soul-state Banner almost simultaneously intended to reject Ancient One's idea.
However, Ancient One directly spoke: "Mr. Banner, don't refuse yet. Noah, you too, this is a mission I'm giving you."
"A mission?" Noah was stunned: "Go to their world, help them snap their fingers? Is this my mission?"
"Yes." Ancient One nodded seriously: "Strange is their world's Sorcerer Supreme, and you will be our Sorcerer Supreme in the future. The decisions made by the Sorcerer Supreme always have their reasons, so we must trust him, just as you trust yourself."
"But..." Noah was about to say something, but he noticed Ancient One's slightly furrowed brow. He thought for a moment and then simply nodded: "I understand. I'll do it."
Noah was quite helpless now. He wasn't particularly fond of the idea of 'trusting the Sorcerer Supreme's judgment'.
But Ancient One had already said so much, what else could Noah say?
Worst case scenario, Noah would just go and witness Tony snapping his fingers? Besides, Ancient One had essentially laid everything bare this time. Noah had already had these suspicions, but this time, they were basically confirmed.
That is, the future Sorcerer Supreme is himself!
This left Noah with a feeling he couldn't quite describe, as if it was a natural progression, something inevitable, and also a sense that his long efforts were finally paying off.
However, Noah compromised, but the soul-state Banner clearly hadn't: "Master Sorcerer, I think I'd prefer the first option?"
"Oh?" Ancient One looked at Banner strangely: "Why?"
"I..." The soul-state Banner hesitated. He couldn't very well say that there was no need for such trouble, and it would be better if she just gave him the gem, could he?
Ancient One saw through his thoughts and smiled indifferently: "Noah, things have been cleared up. Now, go solve these aliens with your greatest ability."
