Superman

Chapter 91 Time Setting, Three Questions

"You're weird."

The Supreme Mage's eyes shone slightly, and there was a rare trace of doubt on his fair face whose gender was difficult to distinguish.

There are not many things in this world that can make Gu Yi puzzled.

She possesses an infinite gem and can foresee future changes and see through the fog of fate.

"General Cavill, your soul belongs to humans, not to creatures from other dimensions. This is a fact that has been confirmed after repeated inspections - there is no smell of sulfur, nor is there a crimson light."

Luke saw the Supreme Mage subconsciously twitching his nose and was speechless.

Does the soul have a smell? Can you still smell it?

As a non-magical layman, he said he didn't quite understand.

"Later, I observed carefully for a while, and I felt that you didn't look like the spokesperson of Sissos. Before capturing the city of Rome, you had no magic talent at all, let alone learning black magic - but it's different now. You have no knowledge of natural energy.

The extraction efficiency is amazing.”

The Supreme Mage squinted her eyes. She didn't quite understand why Luke suddenly changed from a layman to a highly talented layman.

If the other party signs a contract with the Trinity Weishan Emperor, they will definitely be able to easily pass the threshold of a mage.

"As for Dormammu, he hasn't been out for a long time. Mephisto - after I destroyed one of his human incarnations in Greece last time, I guess this cunning demon will need to recuperate for a while..."

Listening to the Supreme Mage talking about all the dimensional demons and big bosses in the Marvel world like a treasure trove.

The corner of Luke's mouth couldn't help but twitch, he could only say that he was indeed the Ancient One!

Talking and laughing with these big guys every day, from the devil of the dimension to the demon of hell, you have to give some face.

The title of the most powerful mage on earth is well deserved.

"So...the Sanctuary didn't figure out my origin?"

Luke raised his eyebrows but kept his expression calm.

If the Sorcerer Supreme knew a chatty mercenary who could break the fourth wall, she would probably know where she came from—assuming that perhaps unborn Deadpool hadn't been weakened.

"That's right."

The Supreme Mage sighed, seeming a little regretful.

This was a problem she had never encountered before. Luke's soul clearly did not belong to this universe, but she could not find its specific origin.

There are all kinds of weird things that just don’t make sense!

Even the mages in the sanctuary find it difficult to give a reasonable explanation.

"After a period of investigation, I initially believe that you are a human being, not a creature from other dimensions. This is very troublesome, because you neither belong to this universe nor to the multi-dimensional world."

"So according to the rules, the Sanctuary cannot dispose of you at will. Every human soul should be respected and protected, just like mages protect this planet. This is our mission and cannot be violated."

"After some discussion, the sanctuary chose to observe quietly. I will often watch your movements in Kama Taj."

"General Cavill, if you didn't show any abnormality, you might never see me in this life - until the moment you hold the Infinity Stones."

Luke remembered being on the plane with the Red Skull and feeling vaguely being watched.

That should be the Supreme Mage himself.

"The Cosmic Rubik's Cube, that is, the moment you hold the Space Stone, the timeline branches off into countless tributaries, destiny becomes obscure, and the future with multiple possibilities keeps changing, falling into an extremely unstable state of chaos."

The Supreme Mage looked at Luke sitting opposite, with complicated emotions in his eyes.

She didn't seem to have expected such consequences. Souls from other dimensions or creatures from other worlds were not uncommon in the three major sanctuaries.

Some of them are harmless, while others are threatening.

The sanctuary has its own set of rules for dealing with things, either contain them or destroy them.

But Luke is special, he doesn't fit into any one category.

This resulted in the Sanctuary not being able to handle it in time, which led to worse changes later on.

"What should we do now?"

Luke asked curiously.

After realizing that the Supreme Mage did not show any obvious hostility, he became much more relaxed.

I am still vigilant in my heart, but my words should be more casual.

Although it sounds like the Sanctuary is troubled by its own existence, the Supreme Mage doesn't seem to have any intention of solving it.

"have no idea."

The Supreme Mage shook his head. She was not omniscient and omnipotent, and she would sometimes be confused.

"That's exactly why I came to you."

Luke thought to himself, finally getting to the point.

Frankly speaking, he really wanted to reach a consensus and reach an agreement with the Supreme Mage.

In this way, one's own existence can become reasonable and legal, without being restricted and supervised by the three major sanctuaries.

It's true that Superman is very strong, but if he really has to face a father-level boss who can punch Mephisto and kick the Dimensional Demon, he may not be able to gain much benefit.

Unless Luke can immediately pull out a heaven-defying template like Superboy Prime and Silver Superman.

"After you caused an unpredictable and huge impact on the future, I tried to go back in time in an attempt to... change this matter."

Luke's eyelids twitched. Although the Supreme Mage spoke tactfully, he still noticed the coldness in his words.

Change this?

Does it mean using the time gem to go back to the past and get rid of yourself?

"No, no, no, you misunderstood me."

The Supreme Mage seemed to have guessed Luke's thoughts, shook his head and smiled: "The past is unchangeable. When it happens, it becomes an established fact. If I go back to the past and strangle you in the cradle, it will not affect you."

With you now, it will only open up a new branch line, a world without you."

Luke frowned, as if he remembered that the time setting on the Marvel Studios was a little different from other movies.

There is no way to change the future settings by going back to the past.

"Then how did you do it?"

Luke suddenly felt that the Supreme Mage was actually an interesting chat partner. He would not refuse to answer any questions, let alone use vague language like a magician.

Most prophets always like to hide the correct answers in confusing words.

"I can observe the future. Your appearance has brought more than 6,300 different possibilities to the timeline, and the number is still increasing."

The Supreme Mage's eyes were strange. In the futures she saw, the impact of the other party was both good and bad.

"I wanted to choose the best one and fix it as the only ending. But I found that I couldn't do it. There is no definite answer among the countless tributaries. Sometimes you become a hero in the world, and sometimes you become everyone.

You are a public enemy. Anyway, you can always make the whole world turbulent. But one thing is common, no one can stop you in the future timeline, Luke."

"The power you possess is unprecedented, and the space for growth is even more frightening. I cannot reach the end of time and see with my own eyes where you have finally reached."

Luke pursed his lips. It was like a Sims game with countless choices.

Each decision will lead to a different direction in the story.

"That's why I came to the door. This is a routine inquiry."

The Supreme Mage's eyes narrowed slightly and he said seriously: "Since the problem cannot be solved in other ways, let's go back to the starting point and have a face-to-face conversation."

"Tell me, Luke, what is your purpose?"

Luke listened carefully for a long time and figured out what the Supreme Mage was thinking.

She couldn't use the Time Stone to heal the impact she had caused, so she could only talk face to face to determine his intentions and whether her existence would endanger the earth.

Just like before obtaining permanent residency, the Immigration Bureau will also ask various questions.

"To be honest, I feel like this is more like an exam."

Luke smiled and replied: "Survival is my first goal."

"Then you can live a more relaxed and secure life without being disturbed by other accidents."

The Supreme Mage remained silent, seeming to be using some kind of magic to confirm the authenticity of these words.

After a while, she asked the next question: "What do you think of humans?"

"A complex creature. The noblest morality and the most despicable means will be reflected in them."

Luke picked up the glass of whiskey on the table and drank it in one gulp. The cold liquid refreshed him.

"I'm not an anti-human lunatic who takes pleasure in depriving others of their right to live. I like to drink Coke, often taste whiskey, and occasionally go to Chinatown to eat Chinese food... No matter how powerful I am, I can destroy the planet with one punch, but

I always need to satisfy my own desires, power, status, and material enjoyment, and these are things that cannot be obtained by relying on killing and slavery."

"Last question."

The Supreme Mage nodded, seeming to agree with Luke's statement.

"When faced with a crisis, what choice would you make? Protect the planet beneath your feet, or give up on it?"
