The moment the words left his mouth, Li Yue instantly regretted it.
"Li Yue, long time no see! You've returned just in time."
The person in front of him slowly turned around, facing Li Yue and Annie with a smile, and slowly spoke! Without a doubt, this person was none other than the Sorcerer Supreme of Earth, the Ancient One! And she was wearing the Eye of Agamotto on her chest, emitting a green light.
"Uh, Venerable Ancient One, that... I didn't mean that just now! I thought you had already..."
"No need to explain, I understand what you mean..."
Sorcerer Ancient One interrupted Li Yue's attempt to explain!
To be honest, Li Yue was very confused right now. What exactly was going on? Shouldn't Sorcerer Ancient One have already passed away when Dormammu invaded? How could she still appear before him completely unharmed?
"Sorcerer Ancient One, what exactly is going on now? Has Dormammu invaded Earth?"
Li Yue curiously asked the Sorcerer Ancient One in front of him. The current situation had exceeded his expectations, and he urgently wanted to know what was happening.
"Miss Annie, who comes from another universe, hello, and welcome to Earth!"
However, the Ancient One did not directly answer Li Yue's question, but instead spoke to Annie, who was beside Li Yue.
"Venerable Ancient One, hello! I've heard Li Yue mention you. He said you are the Sorcerer Supreme who protects Earth. It's truly an honor to meet you today."
Annie respectfully bowed to the Ancient One. Li Yue had indeed mentioned the Ancient One to her when they were at Kamar-Taj, and she also held great reverence for this Sorcerer Supreme who had protected Earth for centuries!
Moreover, the other party was able to call out her name and knew she was from another universe the first time they met, which deeply shocked Annie. She sighed in her heart, thinking that the other party was indeed worthy of being the Sorcerer Supreme!
"Sorcerer Ancient One, we can talk about Annie later! Please tell me what's going on now?"
Li Yue was a bit impatient; he urgently wanted to know the current situation.
"Come and see for yourself!"
As the Ancient One spoke, she waved her hand. Li Yue only felt the ground beneath his feet slowly move. He and Annie had unknowingly arrived next to the Sorcerer Ancient One.
And when Li Yue looked forward, he was instantly stunned and dumbfounded.
It wasn't that Li Yue was being overly dramatic; it was that the sight before him was indeed somewhat incredible.
Because Li Yue saw a giant face hundreds of meters ahead, with two purple eyes like huge lanterns. This should be Dormammu, the ruler of the Dark Dimension, invading Earth.
Of course, this alone wouldn't shock Li Yue so much. What truly shocked Li Yue was the figure battling Dormammu.
It wasn't Doctor Strange, who Li Yue had expected to be negotiating with Dormammu, but rather five figures! Of course, if you don't count the two observing from a distance!
And Li Yue was very familiar with those figures; he knew them all. It was precisely because he knew them that Li Yue was so shocked!
Li Yue didn't pay too much attention to the other two wearing ordinary monk robes; they were the librarian Wong and Master Mordo, whom Li Yue hadn't seen on the ground. At this moment, they were constantly conjuring magic shields to block Dormammu's attacks!
And the other three figures were the culprits behind Li Yue's shock.
One figure, clad in silver iron armor, was flying in the air, constantly dodging attacks from Dormammu, and even finding opportunities to fire energy beams from his palms at Dormammu's giant face a few times, causing considerable damage.
Another figure was completely enveloped in silver lightning, wielding the Stormbreaker axe, also flying in the air, and able to ignore most of Dormammu's attacks, continuously attacking Dormammu with his axe and summoned lightning, inflicting massive damage.
Li Yue even felt as if every time he attacked, a string of blood-red numbers [-99999] would appear above Dormammu's head.
The other figure was clad in a tight suit, holding a round shield in his left hand, while blocking Dormammu's attacks, and holding a hammer in his right hand, also able to summon lightning to continuously strike Dormammu's body.
For a time, lightning flashed and thunder roared over that area, and colorful lights continuously flickered!
..."Holy cow, this scene, could it be the Big Three battling Dormammu?"
Li Yue's worldview was about to collapse. He had seen the Big Three battle Thanos in the movies. But he had never seen such a sight, nor had he dared to imagine it.
However, as Li Yue was still in shock, the five figures jointly attacked Dormammu, seemingly inflicting considerable damage, even leaving scars on that giant face.
"Is this all you're capable of? Then go to hell!"
However, in just a moment, those scars had already disappeared, and Dormammu seemed unwilling to play with these mere clowns anymore. Countless energy spears and blades appeared out of thin air, shooting towards the five figures.
Wong and Mordo's yellow energy shields shattered instantly after only a few blocks, dissolving into countless yellow light particles, and their bodies were pierced by the ensuing blades.
Captain America on the ground only had one shield; how could he block attacks coming from all directions at once? After barely fending off a few blows with Mjolnir, his body was instantly pierced, and he lay dead on the spot.
Tony, clad in armor in the sky, could ignore these blade attacks, but he was struck by Dormammu's suddenly extended giant hand, unable to dodge in time, and was sent flying. Although his armor was still intact, he didn't get up for a long time... At this point, only Thor, wielding Stormbreaker, remained on the field. He ignored Dormammu's attacks, flew over, and confronted Dormammu head-on. Wild lightning was unleashed, as if filling the entire world with dazzling silver light.
Countless lightning bolts, accompanied by Thor's roars, fiercely struck Dormammu's giant face, leaving huge scars.
"Ah, you insignificant ant, how dare you wound me? I will tear you to shreds!"
Dormammu roared, emitting an incredibly terrifying aura. Countless surrounding asteroids were crushed by his powerful aura, and then he opened his giant mouth, a massive amount of energy gathered within it, and a thick, dark energy beam shot towards Thor.
Thor had no time to dodge and was hit by the energy beam. But as expected of Thor, an Asgardian god, he withstood such a massive energy attack without suffering too much damage, only being continuously pushed back by the powerful force, creating a deep gully on the ground!
For a full few tens of seconds, Dormammu stopped his energy attack, but Thor's tall and upright figure still stood there, showing no sign of falling!
However, at this point, he was the only one left to fight Dormammu, making it somewhat difficult to sustain, and this was even with the enhancement of Stormbreaker, allowing him to barely engage Dormammu in direct combat. This showed how powerful Dormammu truly was.
But Thor could only continuously dodge Dormammu's attacks at this moment. Although his body could ignore the spears and blades that appeared out of thin air, he could not withstand Dormammu's giant hand and energy attacks; being hit would cause him considerable harm.
Dormammu even controlled the surrounding asteroids to continuously smash into Thor. Fortunately, Thor's Stormbreaker was indestructible, and he could split the incoming asteroids with a single axe swing. For a time, countless explosions and energy ripples swept in all directions... Although Li Yue was shocked, seeing those familiar faces tragically die before his eyes, how could he not want to rush over to help? It was just that the Ancient One had stopped him!
When Li Yue didn't understand why the Ancient One had stopped him, he saw those who had died reappear alive before him, and he suddenly understood, looking at Venerable Ancient One with a puzzled gaze!
The Ancient One returned a smile to Li Yue!
"That's right, time loop, I can do that too!"
