Chapter 519: Agamotto's Time Illusion
Cheat?
Perhaps, this was a big shot.
To be able to deceive even time, Sorcerer Supreme's strength was evident. Such methods were simply terrifying!
"Actually, I rarely use this spell, but I think there shouldn't be a problem." As Ancient One spoke, she slowly raised her hand, and her fingertips released an orange magical light.
Zi la -
As her fingertips wandered in the air, the magical energy gradually turned from hollow to solid. A powerful aura spread out, and the surrounding space rippled.
One by one, green, complicated, unknown incantations swam in the air like tadpoles, jumping and flashing at times. Along with the flickering light, the artifact hanging in front of Ancient One's chest, the Eye of Agamotto, slowly floated up.
The green light shone brightly like a blazing flame. The terrifying magic power that it emitted even caused Lod to feel a trace of fear. However, if one were to carefully sense it, it would faintly contain a trace of the power of time!
"In the name of Agamotto, it gave the illusion of time and space!" As Ancient One pushed forward with both hands, the tadpole-like runes lined up and formed an exquisite magic array.
With Sorcerer Supreme's attainments in magic, it took her about ten minutes to completely complete the drawing of this complicated magic array.
After the magic array was completed, it shrunk and imprinted on Lod's palm, turning into a green eyeball shaped rune. It was Eye of Agamotto that symbolized the three gods of one body. It was the god who had profound research on space and time.
"This is?"
Lod looked at Ancient One curiously, waiting for the big boss to explain.
"It's been a long time. It's a bit unfamiliar."
Ancient One's face was slightly flushed, and he adjusted his rapid breathing. After he had completely calmed down, he said unhurriedly, "You can treat it as a 'time illusion' to replace the traces that you have existed."
"Time... illusion?"
Lod blinked, indicating that he did not understand.
Ancient One had already expected this, so she explained, "When you are brought to the past by the Weeping Angel, it will create a period of hollow's fake time residue, which is used to deceive the world and time, making them think that you actually did not leave."
"Do you remember the way I picked the tea leaves? It is to create a false illusion of hollow's time to deceive and make up for the defects of time and space. The principle of this method is the same."
"After you resolve this matter, this rune will automatically replace you, replacing you to fill up the defects of time in the past, and you will return to the original time and space."
"It's like a trick called the Three Immortals Return to the Cave, replacing you with the illusion without anyone noticing. Rather than magic, it's more like a magic trick."
"You have to be more careful."
Ancient One was a little tongue-tied. She picked up the teacup and took another sip. "It can only exist for three days, so you have to solve everything before that. Otherwise, you will never be able to return."
"Venerable One, I have another question."
Lod remembered that Tony had asked him to do something, so he asked, "May I ask how many people can create the illusion of time?"
Ancient One raised two fingers, "At most, there can only be two people. If you want to bring back the playboy's girlfriend, then you have to go alone."
"I understand."
Lod nodded slightly and said, "One person is enough. I will be back in three days. But during this time, I have to trouble you with one thing."
Ancient One raised her eyebrows slightly. "Look after that statue?"
"That's right. I don't trust them too much. After all, you should understand." Lod said.
"It's a small matter."
Ancient One smiled and said, "Don't worry. With me here, the statue won't be able to escape."
"With the help of the mages, I feel much more at ease." Lod was completely relieved.
"There's not much time left."
Ancient One slowly got up from the straw mat. Then, with a wave of her hand, the surrounding environment changed. The two of them returned to the temple.
Chi la ---
A circular magic circle suddenly appeared in mid-air, accompanied by a hoarse scream that came from afar. A man fell from the inside and landed heavily on the mahogany floor.
Bang -
This fall was not light. Tony lay face down on the ground, and after a full ten minutes of rest, he slowly crawled over.
"Fuuuuccccccckkkk"
Tony raised his head and saw Lod. He pulled him with tears in his eyes and shouted like an abandoned woman, "I have never been so scared in my life. Do you know how long I have been free? It was a full fifteen minutes!"
Poor Tony.
Lod looked at him with pity. Who asked this guy to be so rude? He still wanted to leave after offending Sorcerer Supreme?
In terms of narrow-mindedness, this seemingly gentle woman in front of him was not much better than the abbot of Shaolin Temple. It was only because of him that Tony would be free to fall for several days.
"Goodbye, Venerable One."
Lod nodded slightly, then turned around and left.
"Goodbye, Venerable One!"
Tony did not want to stay here for even a second. The fear of falling freely was deeply imprinted in his heart. He felt that he was a little afraid of heights now. Three steps and two steps were almost like running. He followed Lod and quickly left the temple.
In front of the huge window on the second floor, Ancient One had his hands behind his back and watched the two leave. A voice suddenly sounded.
"Have you really decided?"
The voice listened carefully and could not tell the gender. The tone was calm like a pool of stagnant water, without any emotional fluctuations.
However, the strange thing was that other than Ancient One, there was no one else in the entire Sacred Palace. It was unknown where this indifferent voice came from.
"Who knows?"
Ancient One was not surprised. It seemed that she had expected that the voice would appear. She just smiled and said, "The past or change may not be destined in the future. The unknown is interesting, isn't it?"
"You won't win."
"Maybe, but I want to try."
"But you can't afford to pay that price."
"I just want to see the scenery that I have never seen before. Even if I die because of it, that is my long-cherished wish."
"You, take care of yourself."
...
...
...
He returned to the Citibank.
The two of them arrived at the barrier of the underground vault. Tony immediately pulled Lod and asked anxiously, "How is it, Lod, have you found a way?"
"Yes, I found it."
Lod nodded and said, "Use the characteristics of the Weeping Angel to transfer me to the past space and time, then bring back your Potts."
Tony was stunned for a few seconds. After understanding the meaning, his face twitched violently. "You mean to say that you want the Weeping Angel to throw you into the past space and time?"
"That's right."
Lod nodded and said, "This is the only way to bring Potts back. So you have to guard this place well. Do not let anyone else cause trouble, understand?"
"But... this is too dangerous!"
Tony gritted his teeth. In order to save his love, he had put others in a situation where they were like fire and water. This was not his personality, so he said, "Why don't you let me do it? I'll bring Potts back. You can stay here."
"You? Don't think too highly of yourself."
Lod sneered and said, "It's not that I look down on you. Will you be able to deal with the Weeping Angel when you go back?"
"I..."
Tony's face was a little gloomy. He powerlessly refuted Lod's words. He could only bitterly lower his head and said dejectedly, "You're right. Even if I go back, I won't be able to bring Potts back."
"So... leave it to me."
Lod patted Tony on the shoulder and comforted him with a smile. "Moreover, I didn't go back to the past just to save Potts. I have more important things to deal with. Don't feel like you owe me."
"You are so narcissistic. I don't owe you anything." Tony turned his face away and refused to admit it.
"Hehe."
Lod did not expose him. He smiled and turned to walk towards the barrier. He waved his hand. "Remember to guard this place well. Don't let S. H. I. E. L. D. take advantage of any loopholes."
"Don't worry, leave it to me."
Tony stared at the back of Lod as he gradually disappeared into the enchantment. A hint of gratitude appeared in his eyes. "You... be careful. Don't let anything happen."
In the next moment, Lod's Spiritual Power disappeared.
Tony took a deep breath. He knew that Lod had already left, and his current task was to guard the Weeping Angel in this treasury before Lod returned!
"Definitely. I want to come back!"
