Chapter 2038 New York Temple (Please give me a monthly ticket!! Please subscribe!!! Please recommend!!!)
Poor Daiying had been the protagonist of the world for centuries, but was accidentally surpassed by his own son, and became a juxtaposition between father and son. That would have been fine, but his American father suddenly became weak, which made Daiying's situation even more miserable.
When it brought the Sun Never Sets, it offended countless people. When it couldn't make it anymore, it offended many more people again thanks to its American father. When its American father returned home and abandoned it, all the consequences came.
You say it is a European country... Other Europeans don't play with it. After all, it was it that insisted on leaving the EU, and it was very ugly. The Gallic roosters and Hans are very angry about it.
Daiying only wants benefits and does not want to bear any responsibility. It wants to continue to take advantage of the EU's trade benefits, but it does not want to bear any responsibilities that the EU must bear.
In the current situation, it is clear that the European continent does not want to play with us.
Now, even the most basic trade is controlled by others. You know, since the Americans have retreated and the world has become a three-power competition, the trade barriers we face have been frighteningly high. The prices of agricultural products from Europe make us cry. They are too expensive.
The people of Hong Kong are now protesting all day long because the cost of living is high... What else can we do if we don't protest? In addition, as the cost of living increases, the service industry has also begun to be affected, causing a chain reaction, leading to an increase in the unemployment rate. The increase in the number of unemployed people has further led to a deterioration in social security, and the deterioration of social security has led to an intensification of conflicts between immigrants and local residents.
Immigrants came to Taiwan to live a good life, but life became increasingly difficult, so they were naturally dissatisfied. These people were outsiders and could not integrate into the local culture, so they started to cause trouble.
Local residents feel that immigrants worsen public security and take away their jobs, so they also begin to oppose immigration.
The two were displeased with each other, and the verbal fight soon turned into a street fight.
The whole of England is in chaos right now. You can see people of different races fighting bloody battles on the streets at any time...
The unrest on the streets has also caused turmoil in the political arena... Democratic politics has its advantages, but naturally it also has its disadvantages, which is that the government can easily be swayed by public opinion.
So one prime minister after another came to power and stepped down, just like playing. Because the new prime minister could not satisfy everyone, especially in such a situation where the whole country was restless, the position of prime minister was even more difficult to hold, so there was a revolving door of people coming to power.
There is no agriculture, no industry, and everything needs to be imported. In the past, it could rely on financial transfusions, but since the world situation has changed, London's attractiveness as a world financial center has declined a lot, and more and more companies and funds have begun to flee.
After all, when it comes to finance, what is needed is a stable environment.
The whole of Britain is in chaos now.
The government is unstable, there are intense ethnic conflicts among the people, the external environment is bad, and public security is extremely poor.
Under such circumstances, it would be impossible to retain those international funds.
Then a large amount of capital flight caused the domestic financial industry to encounter a cold winter, further exacerbating social problems.
It becomes a vicious circle.
The explosion at the London Temple is nothing here, after all, more serious problems are happening every day.
Nowadays, if there is no bombing in London one day, it will really become news.
In fact, world public opinion is consciously abandoning Dai Ying, because what happened here is closely related to those countries outside, and they simply pretend not to see it. Out of sight, out of mind.
Therefore, the destruction of the London Temple received very little attention from the outside world.
But another group of people is different.
Kamar-Taj has gone crazy inside.
When the nodes were destroyed, the first to be affected were the mages, and their workload increased several times in an instant!
As the great guardian shook, countless monsters began to break through the defenses and come into the world again, and all of them needed to be dealt with by the wizards of Kamar-Taj.
And Gu Yi is undoubtedly the busiest.
Because her old friend is here again - Dormammu.
Dormammu was born in a different dimension. He was born into a different dimension energy creature called Fardin. Because he and his sister Uma developed a habit of devouring physical matter, they were regarded as heretics by their tribe and exiled to the dark dimension. Later, he and Uma took control of the dark dimension (the natives of the dark dimension are humanoid creatures called Mhurook) through trickery and magic. After gaining the power of the dark dimension, Dormammu restored his original appearance, but retained his human form, and then began to conquer other dimensions and became the dark overlord of the universe.
Composed of pure mystical energy, Dormammu possesses raw power greater than that of the most skilled wizard, but is often hampered by his own impatience; through the worship of others, his power can be raised to even greater levels. Though not infinitely powerful or unbeatable, he is one of the greatest mystical entities in all dimensions of the multiverse, claiming power equal to that of Odin or Zeus, one manifestation of which is his daring to challenge the sentience of the universe. His many powers include matter transmutation, interdimensional teleportation, size and shape shifting, elemental control, telepathy, the creation of artificial life, and the augmentation of others. Dormammu can call upon the mystical energies of the entire Dark Dimension, as well as his own inherent power, commanding its vast resources when he is a ruler; however, when he appears in another universe, his powers are somehow limited, and his powers are limited unless he can draw directly from its energies through symbiosis or rebirth. Like many other beings, Dormammu's inherent power can be partially summoned through the spells of wizards.
As long as Dormammu's followers are still there, Dormammu will never really die, he can exist forever, and is the highest existence in the world of black magic. His strength is undoubtedly extremely powerful and almost invincible.
This guy has been killed at least thirty times by successive generations of Supreme Sorcerers... Yes, at least thirty times.
On the one hand, it shows that Ancient One is really strong!
On the other hand, it shows that this guy is really persistent... After being fucked so many times, this guy still can't forget the earth.
Look, seeing the great guardian shaken, Dormammu is here again.
He has always wanted to incorporate Earth into his dark dimension.
However, this guy's brain is blinded by power, and he always does some tricks that make people laugh and cry.
For example, this guy would develop believers on Earth, and then let the believers summon him directly to Earth...Originally, everyone is using dark forces to lure the people on Earth into corruption, but Dormammu is different. He has no patience and is very neurotic. Sometimes he becomes impatient before his believers are ready, and then all his believers die.
The believers of other evil gods would at most be discarded by the evil gods, but Dormammu would not even wait for them to be put to the test before he started killing them... His main point is to do whatever he wants.
So this leads to very, very few cultists who believe in Dormammu on Earth.
In the eyes of many Supreme Sorcerers, Dormammu is a comedian, just like the Big Big Wolf in Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf, a villain who never gives up, a villain who never succeeds... or maybe Team Rocket from Pokémon?
That's the kind of guy he is anyway.
As Ancient One once again fights Dormammu.
For a moment, the entire Kamar-Taj was a little bit confused.
After all, the destruction of the node temple has not happened in ten thousand years.
In order to protect the world, all the wizards in Kamar-Taj were dispatched, and even a rookie like Strange was given the task of guarding the temple.
Guarding the temple is generally entrusted to experienced mages, because they are patient enough and powerful enough.
Strange is considered a rare genius among this generation of wizards.
The Ancient One has always had her eye on Strange, but she's not sure if the former surgeon is the one she has in mind.
"So why am I staying in this dusty…museum?"
Every temple is actually a huge museum.
Many magical items that are dangerous to the outside world are kept here. The levitation cloak that Strange is wearing is what he got in the New York Temple. The levitation cloak is an ancient artifact. It is unknown which generation of Supreme Sorcerer made it. It has been kept in the temple. In addition to supersonic flight, resistance to magic and physical attacks, deformation, etc., the most important ability is "autonomous consciousness". Although the levitation cloak is an artifact, it is alive and has autonomous consciousness. It will choose its own owner.
It liked Strange very much, and chose Strange after Strange saw it for the first time.
The levitation cloak allows a person to float in the air, and it flies at super-fast speeds, with comics showing speeds close to the speed of sound. It can move and fight as the owner wishes. The levitation cloak is nearly indestructible, and it can also be used as a shield to protect the wearer from physical and magical attacks. It can also be used as a weapon to attack or capture opponents. The user can use spells to change its appearance, such as turning it into a suit, cloak, and other clothing. It can also be shrunk and extended infinitely, and the owner can summon and control it remotely or even across dimensions. It can also give the wearer the ability to float and fly, which is more effective than using a flying spell. It can also carry other people or objects to float and fly.
However, getting the levitation cloak here does not mean that Strange likes this place.
In fact, for a wizard, guarding the temple is not a good job... You know, not every wizard has the patience to be a security guard here. Although there are many magical items and even artifacts here, these things cannot be taken away casually, and many things are dangerous in themselves.
They would rather stay in the quiet Kamar-Taj headquarters filled with magic books.
Of course, another reason is that Strange felt that all his colleagues had gone to fight, but he had to hide here, which made him feel like he was being bullied in the workplace. Everyone had something to do, but I was assigned to be a security guard in the utility room.
Mordo listened to Strange's complaints and shook his head: "This place is very important. If the enemy can destroy one temple, they will definitely attack other temples. That's why the higher-ups sent you to guard this place."
Strange: "Are you serious?"
Mordo pursed his lips, not knowing what to say... Mordo was the disciple who had followed Ancient One the longest. He was also the most loyal disciple. He regarded Ancient One as his idol and was extremely devout. At the same time, he was also the most devout person to magic. He always regarded Ancient One's teachings as the golden rule.
Perhaps it was this old-fashionedness that made it difficult for Ancient One to hand over the position of Supreme Sorcerer to him.
Because the Supreme Sorcerer is not a conservative defender of morality, but a protector of the world. In order to defeat the enemy, they will do some things that violate their principles. For example, Ancient One herself is also proficient in dark forces... In fact, all Supreme Sorcerers of all generations are more or less involved in this stuff.
Ordinary mages can't do this, because they can easily be bewitched and corrupted by dark forces.
As the Supreme Sorcerer, you must understand this. The best way to defeat the bad guys is to be more cunning and more vicious than them!
Mordo is too rigid.
Even when he saved Casillas, after Ancient One told Casillas the truth, he also told the truth to his most loyal disciple.
Just like that, Mordo was almost "broken in spirit".
After all, this is completely different from what Gu Yi taught him before.
Under the influence of the Ancient One, Mordo naturally sneered at dark magic and dark believers, but when he learned that his trusted master, the Ancient One, also used the power of dark magic, his worldview was completely overturned and his beliefs collapsed. (In the movie, he turned evil because he always believed in the teachings of the Ancient One and could not violate the laws of nature. As a result, Strange used the Time Stone to save the earth, which seriously violated the laws of nature. At the same time, he also made a deal with Dormammu, which Mordo could not accept.)
Fortunately, Ancient One discovered it early. He knew that his disciple was very old-fashioned, but he didn't expect him to be so old-fashioned. On the one hand, he was glad that Mordo could supervise others well, but on the other hand, he felt sorry that his disciple did not have the potential to become the Sorcerer Supreme.
Although Mordo still had a lot of opinions about Ancient One's involvement in the dark forces, he could barely tolerate the Ancient One he admired.
As for the fact that he couldn't become the Sorcerer Supreme... Mordo felt very sorry, but he could accept it.
"Now the remaining temples have been hidden in the space by magic. Who can find them? Don't always treat me like a child, Mordo! I'm already a 40-year-old man. I don't need you to take care of me like a kindergarten kid."
Everyone who has met Strange is surprised by his qualifications, and many people speculate that the Ancient One will pass the position of Sorcerer Supreme to him.
This includes Mordo.
Gu Yi has said more than once that he is very tired and needs a successor.
Many people had high hopes for Casillas before. But...after that incident, Casillas lost his qualifications. No one could trust a man who could be bewitched by Dormammu to be the Great Guardian. Even Casillas himself felt that he was unworthy.
Neither can Mordo.
Now the only candidate left is Strange.
So Mordo felt it was his responsibility to protect Strange.
Of course Strange obviously doesn't think so.
