[Marvel : Spoiling Spider-man] Chapter 61 - 65

Chapter 61 Killing Laufey

In Asgard, when Loki learned that the Destroyer Armor was destroyed, he came to the Rainbow Bridge and teleported Laufey and others frost giant to Asgard.

"Welcome to Asgard!" Loki looked at his biological father coldly, and Laufey showed a weird smile.

The frozen Heimdall watched Loki, Laufey and others frost giant enter Asgard, leaving two frost giants to watch over Heimdall, but they did not notice that cracks were slowly appearing in the ice.

Thor came to the center of the Rainbow Bridge and shouted to the sky: "Heimdall, open the Rainbow Bridge!"

But Heimdall didn't respond to him for a long time. Thor looked at the sky in confusion, "Heimdall?"

Tony stood aside and watched Thor shout a few times but no one responded, "Is he okay?"

Thor also had some worries in his heart, but he knew how powerful Heimdall was, and he firmly believed that Loki could not defeat him.

"He doesn't answer!"

"Then there's nothing we can do."

Tony looked at them from the side, "Can't you go back by yourselves?"

Thor shook his head. "We can only enter Asgard through the Rainbow Bridge."

"Oh, that's troublesome. What happens if you can't go back?"

"We will go back!" Thor firmly believed that nothing would happen to Heimdall, he must have just been delayed by something.

He then shouted to the sky: "Heimdall, if you can hear me, we need you!"

"Heimdall! We need you!"

Heimdall listened to the voices of Thor and the others, and began to struggle hard, and more cracks began to appear in the ice.

There were more and more cracks, and finally there was a loud "bang!", and the ice shattered. Two frost giants immediately pounced on Heimdall.

But Heimdall cut off the head of one of them with one sword, and then stabbed the other one in the abdomen with his backhand.

After getting rid of the two frost giants, Heimdall forced himself to insert the sword into the console, releasing the rainbow bridge. A huge storm vortex immediately appeared on the other side of the earth.

Tony stared at this scene with wide eyes and immediately ordered Jarvis to record it.

Thor took Jane's hand and held her in his arms, "I'm going back to Asgard, but I promise I'll come back for you!"

He gently kissed Jane's hand and looked at her face. "You promise?"

Jane kissed him directly, and after the two of them kissed passionately for more than ten seconds, they pressed their foreheads against each other, "It's a promise!"

Thor turned around and looked at Tony, Natasha and the others, and waved at them, "I'll take you to Asgard if I have the chance!"

Tony nodded, and Thor smiled as he walked towards the Rainbow Bridge and left the Earth with Sif and the others Asgardian.

As soon as they arrived at Asgard, they saw Heimdall slumped over the control console, and Thor yelled, "Take him to the medical room!"

Volstagg drew the sword and closed the Rainbow Bridge. Fandral and Hogun carried Heimdall up, and Thor ran straight to the palace, "I'll go deal with my brother!"

In Odin's bedroom, traces of frost appeared on the golden door. Seeing this, Queen Frigga immediately drew out the sword beside her, and Laufey led a frost giant to break open the door.

Frigga chopped down the leading frost giant with a sword, but was then knocked to the ground by Laufey. He ignored the fallen Frigga and looked at Odin lying on the bed.

Thor held Mjolnir and flew quickly along the bridge, rushing towards the palace at an extremely fast speed.

Laufey used his hand to pry open Odin's intact eye. "It is said that you can still hear and see the people and things around you. I hope this is true! Then you will know that your death was caused by me, Laufey!"

Laufey condensed an ice blade in his hand. He sat astride Odin and raised the ice blade high. Just as he was about to stab it, a beam of energy hit him from behind and knocked him away.

Loki slowly retracted his scepter and looked at Laufey who was lying on the ground. "And you were killed by the son of Odin!"

Laufey looked at Loki in disbelief. He struggled on the ground and wanted to ask him why he betrayed him. Before Laufey could open his mouth, Loki fired another beam of light and turned Laufey into ashes.

Frigga got up from the ground, "Loki! You saved him!" She ran over and hugged Loki.

Loki looked at Frigga, "I swear! Mother! They will pay the price!"

At this time, Thor hurried over, "Loki!"

"Thor!" Frigga saw Thor, "I knew you would come back!" She ran up and hugged Thor.

Thor stared at Loki, his eyes filled with anger, "Why didn't you tell her? You sent the Destroyer to kill me and the other?!"

"What?" Frigga looked at Loki in disbelief.

"I am just carrying father's final order!" Loki argued.

"Brother, you are a great liar. You always have been!"

"It's great that you're back! I'm going to destroy the Jotunheim!" As soon as he finished speaking, he shot a beam of light from his scepter and knocked Thor out of the palace. He fell from a great height.

Loki took the opportunity to rush out of the palace, and started rushing towards the Rainbow Bridge. He inserted the scepter into the console, summoned the Rainbow Bridge and shot it towards Jotunheim. He vowed to completely destroy the realm!

He used frost to freeze the entire console to prevent anyone from pulling out the scepter. At this time, Thor finally recovered and rushed towards the Rainbow Bridge with the hammer in his hand.

He came to the control console and saw the tree-shaped ice that wrapped up all the energy. Loki looked at Thor coldly.

"You can't stop it! The Bifrost will remain open until Jotunheim is torn apart!"

Thor ran in and wanted to break the ice with his hammer, but how could Loki give him this opportunity? He immediately sent Thor flying with a beam of light.

The beam of light from the Rainbow Bridge has reached Jotunheim and started to penetrate the surface. Countless frost giants began to flee.

Tony, Natasha and others on Earth found that something was wrong. The dark clouds in the sky suddenly reappeared. Although they did not form a storm, they continued to gather and linger. Eric shouted, "Jane?"

Jane shook her head. She didn't know what was going on, but this situation was definitely not a good thing.

Thor got up from the ground and asked Loki, "Why did you do this?"

"To prove to my father that I am good son! When he wakes up, it was me who saved his life! And killed that race of monsters! I will be the true heir to the throne!" Loki said with a cold face.

"You can't wipe out an entire race!" After hearing Loki's words, Thor was heartbroken and wanted to persuade him to give up.

"Why not?" Loki suddenly sneered, "Why do you suddenly like the Frost Giants? You used to kill them all with your bare hands!"

Thor looked at Loki calmly, "I have changed!"

"Me too!" He suddenly hit Thor in the face with the end of the scepter, "Come and fight me!" Then another blow knocked Thor to the ground and he slid several meters away.

Chapter 62 Loki Falls into the Wormhole

"I never wanted the throne!!! I just want the same treatment as you!!!" Loki slowly walked towards Thor and expressed his anger loudly.

"I won't fight with you! Brother!" Thor stood up again and yelled at him.

"I'm not your brother!!" Loki looked at him coldly.

"Loki, you're crazy!" Thor didn't understand why Loki would say such a thing.

"Really? Crazy? Crazy??? Please! What happened to you on Earth? What made you such a coward? Don't tell me it's because of that woman!"

Loki's expression became more and more ferocious, his eyes widened, his lips trembled, and his teeth were clenched, as if he wanted to eat Thor alive. His voice was full of anger. Looking at the expression on Thor's face, Loki knew that he guessed right.

"Oh! Really! Maybe, after we are over this, I will go see her in person!!!" Loki showed an evil expression.

Loki's words aroused Thor's anger. He roared and rushed towards Loki. The collision between the hammer and the scepter produced a violent white light. Thor overwhelmed Loki with the power of the hammer and pressed him under him.

Loki pushed Thor aside with all his strength, stood up and wanted to hit him with the scepter, but Thor rolled over to avoid it and hit Loki's feet with the hammer. Loki lost his balance and fell to the ground.

Thor turned over, stood up, and hit him hard with his hammer. Seeing this, Loki hurriedly blocked with his scepter, then kicked Thor away and stabbed him with the scepter.

The two men fought each other. Loki used his scepter to block the hammer and dissipated the force to the side. Then he used the scepter to hit Thor on the back. Thor could not withstand the force and immediately fell to the ground.

Loki jumped up with the scepter and stabbed Thor fiercely, but Thor dodged in time and the scepter pierced through the ground. Thor took the opportunity to strike back, but Loki bent down in time to avoid it.

With the help of the scepter inserted in the ground, he did a 360-degree turn and kicked Thor with both feet when he tried to attack again, knocking him back several steps with an evil smile on his face.

Then the two fought again. Loki was careless and his scepter was caught by Thor. Thor gave him a hard elbow and threw him out.

Thor didn't give Loki any chance and flew forward directly. Loki just stood up and turned around to shoot a beam of light but was interrupted by Thor. The two flew out of the Rainbow Bridge and landed on the Energy Bridge.

Loki nearly fell off the bridge. He managed to grab the side of the bridge with both hands. He shouted "Thor!"

Thor stood up and walked to his side. Looking at Loki clinging to the edge of the bridge, Loki also showed a pitiful look, "Brother, please!"

He softened his heart and squatted down to hold Loki's hand, but suddenly found that it was just an illusion. The real Loki appeared behind him, smiled evilly, and stabbed Thor in the kidney with his scepter.

Thor fell to the ground. Loki created countless phantoms to mock Thor, then raised his scepter and tried to stab him.

"Enough!" Thor raised his hammer and summoned countless lightning bolts, which immediately blew Loki away, and the illusion he created also disappeared.

Loki fell heavily on the bridge, and the scepter slipped out of his hand and fell to the side.

Thor slowly stood up, walked to Loki, and placed the hammer on him. Loki tried desperately to get up, but the hammer on his body was like a mountain pressing on him, making him unable to move.

Thor slowly approached the Rainbow Bridge, but the console was surrounded by huge energy and he didn't know how to stop it.

After struggling on the ground for a long time, Loki finally gave up and laughed at Thor.

"Look at you! Mighty Thor, with all his strength, what use is that to you now? Do you hear me, brother? You can't do anything!"

Listening to Loki's words, a blue-white light flashed in Thor's eyes. Lightning struck from the sky, and his whole body was wrapped in lightning. He wanted to rush directly into the console.

Just as Thor was attacking the Rainbow Bridge control console, Odin, who was still sleeping, suddenly opened his eyes...

The two energies collided with each other, and Thor slowly moved forward under the huge energy, trying to forcibly break through the energy barrier and enter the console to deactivate the Rainbow Bridge.

But as he rushed deeper, the energy became stronger and stronger. The fierce confrontation between the two energies caused Thor to be bounced back and fall heavily on the bridge.

After taking two breaths, Thor raised his hand and summoned the hammer. An even stronger bolt of lightning fell from the sky. He swung the hammer and used it to rush towards the console again.

Mjolnir burst out with powerful lightning, and with the help of Thor's own divine power, Thor successfully rushed into the control console in the violent collision. He looked at the switch that was frozen in ice and smashed it with the hammer without hesitation.

Loki sat up in disbelief and demanded, "What are you doing? You can't ruin my efforts!"

After saying that, he picked up the scepter and rushed towards Thor. Thor hammered down several times in a row, and a large number of cracks appeared in the ice. Then he took a deep breath and smashed down hard, and a huge amount of energy suddenly burst out.

Loki was blown away, and when he got up again, the Rainbow Bridge had stopped. Jotunheim survived, but the energy of the Nine Realms was out of balance, and the wormhole caused by the aftermath of the Rainbow Bridge was slowly shrinking.

Loki stood on the bridge in a daze, looking at the black hole below. Odin finally came to the two brothers.

"Father! I could have done it! I could have done it! For you! For everyone!" Seeing Odin coming, Loki shouted at Odin.

Odin looked at Loki's face and shook his head, "No! Loki!"

Loki failed to get his father's approval. He was so disappointed that he slowly threw away the scepter in his hand. Thor realized what Loki was going to do and looked at him with a painful face, "Loki! No! No!!!"

Loki faced Odin, smiled bitterly, and then fell backwards. His figure fell towards the wormhole. Odin showed a sad look on his face, "No!" Thor wanted to rush over, but was stopped by Odin. The wormhole swallowed Loki and disappeared.

On Earth, Tony and the others stood by the Rainbow Bridge, watching the dark clouds dissipate in a very short time, "Is it over?"

Jane was feeling a little down, she thought Thor wasn't coming back, Tony walked up to her, "You are the Jane Foster, right?"

"Yes!"

"He will come back. Don't forget that you still have to take the hammer to help him. But before that, do you want to go for a physical examination?" Tony comforted her and reminded her that it would be better to go for a physical examination.

"This is for your own good. The Screen said that you are dying bed and you will be die if you use the hammer. Isn't this telling you nakedly that you will get sick in the future?" Tony spread his hands. He had thought of this before, but didn't have time to say it.

"Thank you, I'll check it out later." Jane nodded in thanks.

Chapter 63 Thor 1 End

After Tony had a brief chat with Jane Foster, he turned to look at Dr. Eric. He had discussed Mjolnir with him before when they were at the base, and he was very impressed by Eric's knowledge.

Although the two parties have different fields of knowledge, they are both top experts in their respective disciplines, so they naturally respect each other. However, Nick Fury has already taken the lead and invited Eric and Jane to work for S.H.I.E.L.D.

Eric and the others naturally agreed, because Thor made it clear that he would form an alliance with Coulson and the others, and they might have to face the war together in the future.

Now that the matter has come to an end, Tony decided to return to New York first. Natasha also needs to rush back as soon as possible to report the operation to Nick Fury, especially since she picked up Mjolnir.

Until now she could feel a strange feeling in the distance. She guessed that it was Mjolnir. She could still summon it. As long as Thor did not resist, the hammer would fly into her hands.

Coulson stayed here. He needed to deal with the aftermath of these SHIELD agents. Most of the agents he brought with him died in this incident. He was heartbroken about it. But what he don’t know that these agents were all Hydra's men.

The base built in New Mexico also had to be demolished, leaving him with a huge mess. He lamented that his hairline was going to get higher again.

Asgard

Because they had resolved the invasion of the Frost Giants, they held a banquet. Volstagg held up a chicken leg, gnawed it while laughing, and exaggeratedly told the story of how he fought against the Destroyer.

However, Fandral was trying to sabotage him. He explained awkwardly that it was just a strategy to lure the Destroyer. Thor walked past Sif in a depressed mood and came to Frigga.

She held Thor's hand and patted it twice. Frigga looked at Thor and sighed slightly.

Sif walked up to her and looked at him worriedly. Frigga had always been aware of Sif's affection for Thor, and she was also optimistic about Sif becoming her daughter-in-law.

"Your Majesty, I'm very sorry about your son..." Frigga touched Sif's shoulder without saying anything. She just looked at Thor's back with a sad expression as he walked away.

"How is he?"

"He's mourning his brother, and... he misses her. That mortal."

"But she will sacrifice her life to help Thor defeat the enemy named Gorr. She is great." Sif recalled The Screen's words and her heart became heavy. She has always liked Thor.

But now a powerful enemy has appeared before her. Jane can sacrifice herself for Thor, and she asks herself if she can do so, otherwise she would not face the Destroyer head-on, but Thor always fails to see her efforts.

Frigga knew what Sif was thinking. If Sky had not revealed that Jane would pick up Mjolnir to help Thor, she would stand firmly on Sif's side, but now she hesitated.

She didn't know whether Thor's relationship with that mortal woman was good or bad, so she could only let Sif and Jane compete fairly. Not favoring either side was her last bottom line.

Thor walked to Odin's side, and the two looked at the direction where Loki fell. Odin said, "You will be a wise king!"

"There will never be a wiser monarch or a more perfect father than you!"

Odin lowered his head and looked at his feet, wondering what he was thinking.

"I have a lot to learn... I know it now. Maybe one day, I'll make you proud of me!"

Hearing this, Odin turned around, put his hand on his shoulder, and said, "You have made me proud!" Then he left.

After the party, Thor walked over to Heimdall, who was standing at the console and taking on his responsibilities again, "I want to use the Bifrost!"

"Not now. The Rainbow Bridge has caused an energy imbalance between the nine realms. It will take some time to stabilize. You need to go to other worlds to quell the disaster caused by the energy imbalance."

After a moment of silence, Thor asked, "Can you see her?"

"I can!"

It was already dark, and Eric and Jane were packing up and preparing to leave their house. They would go to work at the location provided for them by Nick Fury.

Jane can also get help from SHIELD to find Thor. She believes that they will definitely meet again. Maybe the next time they meet will be when she picks up the hammer to help him.

"Is she okay?"

"She's trying to find you."

A smile appeared on Thor's face. Although the time he spent with Jane on Earth was very short, it left him with extremely good memories.

. . . . . .

Some time after the destruction of the Destroyer Armor, Eric met Nick Fury in a S.H.I.E.L.D. warehouse.

"Dr. Selvig!"

Eric turned around and said, "Hello, Director Nick Fury, this place is like a maze."

"What do you want me to do?"

"I've heard about New Mexico. Your work has won the admiration of many people who are smarter than me. I didn't invite you to the last meeting because I still need to observe you."

"I'm honored! I have a lot of information, including Foster's theory and the passage to another world. This is unprecedented. And her theory has given me a deeper understanding of the sky screen."

"That's even better. Although we have given up the experiment on the sky screen, we have only retained a small number of scientists to continue studying the corresponding theories."

"Is that so? I thought you wanted me to help you continue your research on the Sky screen."

Nick Fury shook his head and signaled with his eyes for him to follow.

“There’s always a difference between legend and history, but sometimes there’s commonality between the two.”

He opened the box containing the Cosmic Cube, revealing the Cosmic Cube emitting a light blue light.

Eric shook his head in confusion, looked up and asked, "What is this?"

"Energy! Doctor...if we can figure out how to harness it, maybe we can have endless energy."

"Why not let Stark do the research?" Eric asked puzzledly. With a genius like Stark here, why should they look for him specifically?

"Stark has his own things to do. He is a very busy hero. When he is free, maybe you can study with him, but now you have to rely on yourself."

NIck Fury explained the reason to him. In fact, Tony was eager to create a more advanced armor to prevent the reappearance of the Destroyer. He was tired of the fact that all his moves were ineffective against the Destroyer.

He has asked Nick Fury for the Destroyer Armor. He wants to study why the Destroyer Armor can exert such powerful power without any internal devices. Its material is also something Tony has never seen before.

Just as Dr. Eric and Nick Fury were looking at the Cosmic Cube, Loki, who had fallen into the wormhole, appeared again, but neither of them could see him.

Loki walked up to Dr. Eric and whispered in his ear, "I think it's worth a try!"

Eric followed up with a mysterious voice: "I think it's worth a try!"

Chapter 64 Spider-Man 3

Just as Tony was immersed in building his armor in the underground garage, working tirelessly and forgetting to eat or sleep, the sky outside began to brighten.

[A montage of Peter Parker's past experiences: Mary Jane, Aunt May, and Uncle Ben; the ambitious Norman Osborn; the tormented Dr. Otto Octavius; and, most notably, the sinister black symbiote slime. Each memory unfolded vividly, a testament to his journey as Spider-Man.]

One particular scene caught Nick Fury's sharp eye. He noticed a spider biting Peter's hand, the very moment that transformed him into Spider-Man. Fury, ever the strategist, immediately ordered his team to analyze the captured footage, comparing it against known spider species. If such a spider didn’t exist in their world, Fury resolved to create one. The potential to replicate Spider-Man's abilities was too valuable to ignore.

Three months later, the much-anticipated replay of the Sky Curtain broadcast sparked enthusiastic cheers from audiences worldwide. People eagerly awaited the continuation of Peter Parker’s heroic journey.

[The video resumed where Spider-Man 2 had left off: Peter Parker swinging gracefully across the cityscape, watched fondly by Mary Jane.]

["It’s me! Peter Parker, your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man. Life has been far from normal since that spider bite, but now…"]

[Peter stood on a bustling street, captivated by a television display showing himself soaring through the sky. A group of children nearby pointed at the screen excitedly. "Look! It's Spider-Man!" they exclaimed.]

["He’s so cool! Spider-Man!"]

[Peter smiled warmly at their admiration. "Everyone really likes me," he mused, a rare moment of self-acknowledgment.]

[The montage shifted to headlines from various newspapers—Newsday, USA Today, and others—celebrating Spider-Man’s heroism, such as saving a baby from a burning apartment. The city buzzed with gratitude, with citizens holding magazines featuring Spider-Man on the cover.]

[Despite his fame, Peter’s life remained grounded. He rode his scooter through the streets, weaving between pedestrians. "I still go to school, and my grades aren’t too bad."]

[In a classroom, Dr. Connors passionately explained concepts at the podium. "The Hamiltonian function tells us that energy levels depend on the energy field…"]

[Two boys behind Peter used a straw to spray two balls of paper at him, which hit Peter. Peter turned his head to look at them, and the two of them immediately pretended that nothing had happened.]

[Peter knew they were playing tricks, but he could only turn around and continue listening to the class. "What can we see from this matrix?"]

[Hearing this question, Gwen Stacy and Peter in front raised their hands at the same time. Connors took a look and nodded: "Ms. Stacy?"]

[Gwen immediately responded: "That means only quantum states with zero mass will be affected."]

[“Correct, well said, Miss Stacy.” Hearing Connors’ praise, Gwen immediately turned around and smiled at Peter, who also smiled and gave her a thumbs up. ]

[A classmate in front of him used a mirror to shine a beam of light on his face. He subconsciously covered his eyes with his hands. Connors saw Peter's action and asked, "Peter? Do you have anything else to add?"]

[Peter waved his hand helplessly, "Nothing to add, sir."]

"Students who like to make trouble in class, I hate this kind of students the most." Tony curled his lips and looked at those troublesome students with disdain. At Peter's age, he would have given up these meaningless actions long ago.

"Yeah, yeah, some people at this age have already taken home multiple cover girls on magazines." Pepper said directly, and Tony immediately looked at her with a bitter face when he heard it.

[“Gwen Stacy is a better choice than Mary Jane. It’s a pity that Peter Parker always misses her. Either they are not destined to be together, or they are separated by death. They can never spend the rest of their lives together.”]

[“It is often said that Mary Jane’s favorite Spider-Man is Peter Parker, Ursula loves Peter Parker instead of Spider-Man, and Gwen loves Spider-Man but loves Peter Parker more.”]

[“Among the three girls, Peter Parker was blinded by his first love and never paid attention to girls other than Mary Jane.”]

[“Just like Christine and Strange, they are both star-crossed lovers. In the infinite multiverse, there are countless pairs of Christine and Strange, but they are always destined to separate.”]

[“For Strange, becoming the Sorcerer Supreme is his ultimate goal. He needs to protect the world from the invasion of dimensional demons.]

[If he can become the Sorcerer Supreme, he will have to separate from Christine. If he doesn’t become the Sorcerer Supreme, he will have to watch Christine die in front of him, and then become the Sorcerer Supreme.”]

[“He always loses the most important thing in his life, and then regrets it. Some things can be found back, but some things can never be found again.”]

[“It all started with Ancient One. She has been protecting the world for hundreds of years. She can’t hold on any longer. For her now, every minute and every second that passes is a painful torment.”]

[“She urgently needs to find a qualified successor, and Strange is the most suitable candidate she has found. She doesn’t need to do anything, just wait slowly, and Strange will find her on his own, and she naturally accept him as her last disciple.”]

[“All she need to do is lead Strange into the door of magic, and the rest can be handed over to the future Sorcerer Supreme. She can also leave this world peacefully and pursue her eternity.”]

Peter stared at the sky in a daze. Although he didn't know who Strange was, he knew that the previous words were spoken to him. He thought about Gwen's every smile and frown. She really liked to smile at him.

Ever since he entered college, he has been the most eye-catching guy in the school. He always thought that Gwen treated him the same as other girls because he was Spider-Man, but it seems that there seemed to be other factors.

"Perhaps, The Screen is right, Gwen might be a better choice." Peter lowered his head silently. The Screen's words touched him and made him want to try to have more contact with Gwen.

Gwen Stacy was also looking at the sky screen in surprise. She didn't expect the sky screen's narration to speak so highly of her. "Is Peter Parker a better choice?" She secretly rejoiced in her heart. After all, who doesn't like superheroes?

Compared to Gwen, Mary Jane felt much more uncomfortable. She was belittled by The Screen in public, and she didn't understand why The Screen said that.

. . . . . .

The information revealed by Screen immediately caused an uproar in the outside world. Nick Fury could not sit still. He almost instantly determined who Strange was. After all, among so many Stranges, there was only one who had Christine by his side.

"Stephen Strange!" He took out his phone and was about to dial, but was pressed down by a hand that suddenly appeared. He looked up and saw a bald woman in a yellow robe appearing in front of him.

Hill immediately pulled out her pistol and pointed it at the suddenly appeared Ancient One. Ancient One waved his hand and Hill's pistol suddenly flew out of her hand. She looked down at her empty hand, then raised her head and looked at Ancient One in shock.

“Who are you?” Fury demanded, his voice steady but edged with tension.

The woman’s serene expression didn’t waver. “I am the Ancient One.”

Chapter 65 Ancient one

Tony scoffed, “So Strange is destined to become the Sorcerer Supreme? And this Ancient One has been alive for hundreds of years? Magic existing in this world is beyond reason.”

In Tony's eyes, Thor was merely an alien who happened to resemble humans. But the confirmation of true magic was a concept that clashed with his scientific mindset.

Meanwhile, at the hospital, Stephen Strange and Christine shared a tense, silent exchange. The words from the Sky Curtain lingered in the air, their implications cutting deep.

“Are we really destined to be separated?” Christine murmured, her voice tinged with sadness. She had always harbored feelings for Strange, but his actions never seemed to reflect the same intensity. However, the narration hinted at emotions deeper than she had ever imagined.

At S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters, Nick Fury stood with a grim expression, watching the surreal scene unfolding around him. Moments earlier, agents had attempted to confront the Ancient One with firearms drawn. They hadn’t anticipated what followed.

With a simple motion from the Ancient One, reality itself shattered like fragile glass. The agents, along with the walls of the office, vanished into fragments. Beyond the fractured space lay bustling streets, yet none of the pedestrians noticed the disturbance above. The world twisted and bent at the Ancient One’s command.

“Do not meddle in Strange’s fate,” the Ancient One intoned. “When the time comes, he will naturally become my disciple.” With a subtle gesture, the mirror dimension ceased its disorienting rotation.

Nick Fury, ever perceptive, locked his gaze on the Ancient One. “I don’t know why the Screen is showing this,” he said, his voice measured. “But if it’s revealing these events, it means change is inevitable.”

Since Strange had previously seized on the one in 14 million chance, their people had analyzed many possibilities, one of which was that the other party could predict the future, and then act according to how that future would develop, and thus achieve that future 100%.

Ancient One fell silent after hearing this. She understood the meaning of Nick Fury's words, but she also didn't know why The Screen wanted to reveal these things. In the timeline she observed, The Screen had never existed.

The screen transcends time, and even its existence cannot be observed from the perspective of time. No matter what she does, the Time Stone cannot observe it. Naturally, Ancient One does not know what The Screen will say next.

The appearance of the Screen disrupted Ancient One's plan. Initially, it only played the life story of Spiderman, but the narration mentioned things about their universe from time to time, making the timeline diverge.

The storm caused by the butterfly is brewing. It has not yet fully taken shape, but some signs have already appeared.

"Maybe you have a point, but Strange is destined to become the Sorcerer Supreme." Ancient One looked at NIck Fury calmly. Both sides were working hard to protect the world, and Ancient One did not want to conflict with them.

“I don’t doubt that,” Fury replied, his tone firm. “But for now, he’s just a surgeon. Don’t you think his exposure puts him in danger? We can protect him.”

The Ancient One saw through Fury’s intentions immediately. He sought to establish goodwill with Strange before he ascended to his destined role. However, she was unbothered by his proposition. As long as Strange succeeded her, the method was irrelevant.

“I will monitor Strange myself,” she said, her voice resolute. “Even if unforeseen events occur, I can recover the situation.”

Without another word, the Ancient One waved her hand, dissolving the mirror dimension. She vanished as swiftly as she had appeared, leaving Fury and Hill standing in the now-restored office.

Nick Fury, who came out of the mirror space, subconsciously pressed the corner of the table. The scene just now gave him a great shock. He never thought that SHIELD would be invaded so easily, and their agents had no way to deal with it.

Ancient One came and went as she pleased, and for the first time, NIck Fury felt powerless. He wasn't even sure if Captain Marvel could defeat the mysterious Ancient One.

Brock Ruimlow looked at Nick Fury and Hill, who had just suddenly disappeared in the office, with surprise and suddenly reappeared. He cast a questioning look at Nick Fury, and Nick Fury waved his hand to let them leave.

Nick Fury exhaled lightly, his expression returned to calm, and looked at Hill beside him, "I want to be alone for some time." Hill nodded, picked up the gun that fell beside him, and walked out of the office.

[Peter Parker strolled into a small pawn shop called “Miller’s Pawn Shop.” Spotting a diamond ring in the display, he exclaimed, “I’ve fallen in love with the girl of my dreams!”]

[The shopkeeper, noticing Peter’s interest, placed a card reading “Payment in Installments” next to the ring. Peter smiled warmly at the gesture, and the shopkeeper smiled back.]

[Later that evening, Peter arrived at a musical theater called “Memories of Manhattan.” Approaching the ticket counter, he said, “Ms. Watson left a ticket for me—Peter Parker.”]

[He found his seat in the audience, one Mary Jane had reserved for him. As the curtains rose, Peter grew nervous with anticipation. Mary Jane appeared on stage, descending the stairs gracefully as she began to sing. Overwhelmed with excitement, Peter whispered, “That’s my girlfriend!” much to the bemusement of the man sitting beside him.]

[Peter hummed along to Mary Jane’s performance, his admiration obvious. On the second floor, Harry Osborn watched the same performance through a pair of binoculars. His smile faded as he shifted his gaze to Peter, who looked at Mary Jane with unfiltered adoration. A flicker of anger ignited within Harry.]

[After the show, Peter left the theater, basking in the praise the audience showered upon Mary Jane. Spotting Harry outside, Peter hurried to approach him. “Harry! I need to talk to you!”]

[Harry turned coldly, his voice laced with bitterness. “Go explain things to my father—bring him back to life!” Without waiting for a reply, he climbed into his car and slammed the door.]

[Peter stood helplessly as the car sped away. “I’m your friend, Harry,” he murmured. “I cared about your father too…”]

[Shaking off his disappointment, Peter headed backstage to meet Mary Jane. The two embraced warmly. Peter praised her performance, his admiration evident.]

[Mary Jane glanced at a bouquet of flowers on her dressing table. “These are beautiful. Harry sent them, didn’t he? Was he here tonight?”]

[Peter hesitated before answering, “Yes… I ran into him outside.”]

[“How are things between you two?” she asked gently.]

[Peter sighed. “It’s complicated. I tried explaining things to him, but he wouldn’t listen.”]

[Mary Jane admitted she had been nervous during the performance, but Peter reassured her. He even launched into an overly detailed explanation of how acoustics worked, earning a playful jab from Mary Jane. “You nerd!” she teased, and they both shared a laugh.]
