Marvel With Zanpakutou

Chapter 518: Ancient One's Ingenuity

"You... really?"

Lod admitted. He was a little panicked.

To dare to make the Weeping Angel into a 'mode of transport', even the bold 'Doctor' could not do something like courting death.

Once the time energy is stolen by the 'weeping angel', it means that the time line you are in will be locked, and you will never be able to return to the previous time and space, otherwise it will trigger a huge time and space paradox, causing the entire universe to collapse and then collapse .

It was impossible for Sorcerer Supreme, who was in charge of the Time Stone, to not know the power of the Time paradox.

But even so, Ancient One still suggested that he do this. The reason behind this made Lod feel very puzzled. He even suspected that he would not offend Ancient One. That was why he had incurred the petty 'revenge' of this Sorcerer Supreme.

Shua!

Ancient One waved her hand, and the space around her changed.

In the blink of an eye, the two of them arrived at Kamar Taj. In an ancient Chinese style building, there was a straw mat and a wooden table in front of them. There was a pot of hot tea and two tea bowls on it. White smoke could also be seen floating in the air, emitting a faint fragrance of tea. It was as if it had just been cooked.

"Sit ---"

Ancient One knelt on both knees on the ground. The guarantor sat upright and still. She raised her hand to signal Lod to sit down. "Have a taste of the good tea I brewed. This is the Imperial Dragon Well I just picked. Normally, you can only taste it when it is clear and bright. Your luck is not bad."

Dragon Well?

Lod looked at the clear tea and could not help but have a trace of doubt in his eyes.

It should be known that it was almost winter now. It had been several months since the Dragon Well Festival. Where could the Longjing tea be picked?

"If the tea is cold, it won't taste good."

Ancient One reminded him softly, "I know what you are thinking, but after drinking this cup of tea, you will naturally know."

"Then I will respectfully accept your offer, Venerable One."

Since Sorcerer Supreme had already said so, Lod simply imitated Ancient One's sitting posture. He sat on his knees and maintained his sitting posture. He picked up the tea bowl in front of him and sipped it.

The green, jade-like tea soup flowed down his throat and into his mouth.

For a moment, it felt as if he was in the middle of the spring season. A sweet fragrance and sweetness echoed in his mouth. It was not the strong feeling brought by ordinary tea, but more of the pure and refreshing taste. The rich and mellow aroma flowed on his cheeks and lingered for a long time.

"Good tea! Good technique!"

After Lod closed his eyes and savored it for a moment, his eyes revealed a touch of sadness. He whispered, "The mage's method of brewing tea is very authentic. I haven't drunk such a fragrant and mellow authentic tea for a long time."

"I will answer your question."

Ancient One smiled indifferently. Then, he picked up the teacup in front of him and said, "This tea was specially picked from Dragon Well before you came. Can you understand what I mean?"

"You mean..."

Hearing this, Lod suddenly frowned.

He noticed that what Ancient One said was not English but rather pure Chinese, and the words were very elegant. It was picked from the Dragon Well season.

Combined with the statement and concept in front of him, it was not difficult to figure out the meaning of this sentence. Ancient One did not harvest it in advance and store it until now. Instead, he picked up these precious Imperial Longjing using some method a few minutes before he came.

In human words, it was Ancient One who brought the 'things' of the past to the present!

"It seems that you understand."

Ancient One took a sip of the green tea and then slowly said, "Then I will answer the second question. Bringing the things of 'past' until now, regardless of size, it will trigger a space-time paradox. Different from the impact caused by the object, the size of the paradoxwill change accordingly."

People are not higher than all things, so the paradoxes triggered will not be different.

"But if there is something that has a greater impact, such as major events that will cause historical changes, it will trigger a huge space-time paradox, and even cause the universe to collapse. That is what you are worried about."

"In that case, why do you want me to use the Weeping Angel to return to the past?" Lod frowned even more deeply and asked in confusion, "Wouldn't this cause a bigger paradox?"

"Hehe, don't worry. Let me finish."

Ancient One raised her hand to signal him to calm down first and continued, "What I said is just an ordinary situation, but there are three other special cases that can prevent time and space paradoxes from happening."

"You should have already seen the first scenario. It is the Space and Time Administration, which is also TVA's Time and Space agent. The quantum bracelets they wear can reduce their entropy to the minimum, so as not to cause a special effect on the current time and space."

"The second scenario is the method I used to pick the Dragon Well of the Imperial Palace. I will make up for the timeline of the 'shift', just like building blocks. I took one of the blocks and put the other one back. In this way, there will be no change in time."

"As for the third scenario..."

When Sorcerer Supreme said this, she paused for a moment and glanced at Lod.

Lod felt a little uncomfortable from her gaze. He shifted his butt and asked, "Venerable One, what is the third situation?"

"Hehe."

Ancient One calmly put down her teacup and said, "The third situation is that 'you' is in the 'history' of the past. So even if you return to the past and cause a huge impact in history, there will not be any time paradoxes."

"Uh."

The corner of Lod's eyes twitched. He was confused when he heard this. "Mage. Can you please be as simple as possible?"

"To put it simply, history has long been decided. You will return to the past timeline and resolve this matter." Sorcerer Supreme said faintly, "In contrast, when you return to the past time and space, the universe will naturally split apart a parallel timeline in order to avoid triggering a time paradox. That is, the parallel universe we speak of."

"Parallel... Universe?!" Lod widened his eyes.

"Yes, of course, you can also understand it as 'fate'."

A dim light flashed in Ancient One's eyes as she said faintly, "From the moment you were born, this parallel universe has already existed. And the purpose of its existence is to reduce the huge space-time paradoxthat happened when you returned to the past."

"You mean..."

Lod suddenly understood the hidden meaning in Ancient One's words. Flames danced in his eyes. "The past can not be changed. The future is already destined, right?"

"This... is fate."

After a moment of silence, Ancient One slowly said in an indifferent and emotionless voice, "Just like the countless timelines I have observed, they have been destined to end since the beginning of their birth."

"There are people like Tony Stark who inherit Sorcerer Supreme's position, Stephen Strange who inherits Sorcerer Supreme's position, Steve Rogers who inherits Sorcerer Supreme's position, and Dr. Doom, etc.."

"Countless universes are experiencing destruction, and countless universes are being reborn. And their meaning is to make up for the time paradoxes, or to extend more 'possibilities'. And I can only silently observe them."

"Lod. We are all puppets of fate."

"It's like being tied to an invisible line, constantly dancing the planned dance. When it ends, it will be our day of the curtain festival."

"A puppet with an invisible line?"

Lod laughed in a self-deprecating manner and said, "It's a very vivid metaphor. It seems that I am destined to go?"

"At least for now."

A ripple appeared in Ancient One's eyes. He said meaningfully, "Unless one day, you can cut off the invisible threads that are binding your body. However, it is still too early."

"We will talk about the future in the future."

Lod slowly got up and asked, "I understand what you mean, but I have another question. I can rely on the Weeping Angel to cross over, but how can I come back?"

"It's not difficult."

Ancient One said calmly, "I just need to 'cheat' him for a while."
