The neon lights flashed outside the window. No one knew that just a few hours ago, this place had suffered a devastating blow. This city had been on the brink of disaster, but it had managed to avoid it and survive.
The metropolis was still bustling and lively. Compared to Gotham, this was truly a modern open city.
The little spider who had taken off his uniform was wearing a hooded T-shirt that was commonly worn by American teenagers. He was so young that he looked like a teenager from a nearby high school. He looked out the window for a long time, and the sense of alienation from this world became more and more obvious. It was as if he was living in the shadows of this city, a completely different dimension from the glamour of the metropolis.
In the picture, the little spider was light gray, and he did not have a sense of existence in the space.
This was not an adjective, but a description of a fact. The Prophet had knocked on the door and walked in, but she did not notice him immediately.
The Prophet sat before the little spider and said, "I suddenly could not see you!"
"I might have gone somewhere else!" The little spider changed the topic. "The clothes you picked for me fit me very well …"
"That is because I am very familiar with you, including your size …" The Prophet smiled ambiguously and went with the flow to lie on the little spider's single bed. She looked at him teasingly and said, "Guess which timeline, which future, I have not … tasted you again?" She gave the little spider a very suggestive look.
The little spider was so scared that he stuttered, "I … I did not … Wait, you did not come to me to talk about this, did you?"
The Prophet sighed and gave up on teasing the innocent little spider. She sat up on the bed.
"Just now, you disappeared from the timeline! In that instant, all the future about you disappeared. I could not see you … it was like … "
"It was like I had suddenly arrived outside of time!" The little spider finished the sentence.
"You really do know what happened to you!" The Prophet said seriously. "Peter, you should have told me."
"This is just a necessary price …" The little spider sat down and said, "Don't tell me you also think there is no price to pay for using a divine artifact that can reverse everything? When you break the order of time, time will also bite you. I interfered with the Laws of Time, so I was naturally rejected by the Laws of Time until I was banished out of time. "
"This gem, the Eye of Agomodo, originally belonged to a mage. He was my comrade. When we fought side by side against the invaders, you used a divine artifact to reverse time and saved a destroyed city. Then, right in front of us, he was captured by an existence outside of time."
"The river of time protects us from the spying of some monsters outside of time. Once you break the laws, you will be rejected by time until you are banished outside of time."
The prophet said nervously, "What about now? Are the monsters outside of time also targeting you? "
The little spider did not know whether to laugh or cry. "Do you still remember the mage I mentioned? He's doing pretty well outside of time. He took action to isolate the existence outside of time from spying on me. He's now a Dimensional Mage. So when I was repelled by time, I happened to meet him. "
The little spider did not lie. After using the Eye of Agomodo and reversing the time of the entire metropolis, he found that there was a problem with himself.
He began to gradually alienate himself from the world … Sometimes when he was in a daze, he felt that not even a second had passed, but his surroundings had changed. He walked on the street, preparing to return to the hotel, and in a trance, he seemed to brush past something on the road. He found that the sky was already dark.
He stood on the street, and there was no contact with the bustling traffic and people around him at all. It was as if they existed in two different worlds.
The time of this world began to reject him, and he would occasionally appear to be out of tune with his surroundings.
At that time, it happened to be when time's protection for him was at its lowest.
Peter thought that he would be captured by the existence outside of time, just like when he saw Strange disappear on the battlefield with his own eyes. But when he was most strongly rejected by time and felt that he had disappeared in this time, he suddenly felt someone standing in front of him and looking at him, as if the two of them were separated by a rough glass window.
He could only vaguely make out a rough outline, and he could not see the nose or the eyes clearly.
But he could still hear that person speaking. "Peter … I'm Strange. Don't worry about me, I'm doing quite well outside of time. The natives here are very 'warm' … In general, I'm doing quite well. I've already become a representative of a small, simple dimension. Perhaps I can be considered a third-rate Dimensional Lord!"
"This has given me some power, and I can protect you from being captured by some Dimensional Lord who has a grudge with me."
"I can only tell you some things when the barrier between you and me is at its weakest … First, be careful of Chen Ang. Pay attention to him. He's the hand behind everything. Believe me, he's hidden deeper than you think, and the truth behind him is also more terrifying than you think … Because of some unspeakable reasons, I can't tell you these things in detail."
"I can only say that among the many dimensions outside of time, he's one of the most terrifying Dimensional Lords."
"Compared to him, Doma of the Dark Dimension is just a small character!"
"His origins are very ancient, and can be traced back to the origin of civilization. He's part of the myth, and some kind of dark hand that runs through history. He once interfered deeply in the affairs of us mages … "
"Secondly … there's a problem with this world. It's not that simple …"
The voice became more and more ethereal, and in the end, the little spider could only hear some faint murmurs. It was a strange sound that could not be described with words. He found that this sound began to affect his mind. When he came back to his senses, he had already begun to return to time. Then, the sound outside of time was a kind of pollution and interference.
It became very strange, mixed with the whispers of history, some stories of the past, and some prophecies of the future. It was very chaotic and strange.
This was because this was a sound outside of time. After entering time, it was tainted with some light and shadow and information of history and the future, becoming distorted and unreal.
In the end, Peter had no choice but to use the time gem to continue staying outside of time. Only then did he hear Strange's final instructions. "… Pursue the truth, but don't be confused or hurt by the truth. Reed is the key … You have to work closely with him … Finally, find your ally. Other than Chen Ang, anyone in this world is worthy of trust and cooperation. "
"This world is closely related to our world. The familiar people and things you see are all real."
"Finally … I wish you good luck. Spider mage … learn more magic! As a supreme mage, you're using technological means to use the Eye of Agomodo, it's really … too much! "
"Don't be afraid of making mistakes, because everything can be redeemed. And this world … has nothing to lose! "
… …
"What did he tell you?" The prophet looked at the little spider's brown eyes and asked.
The little spider lied and said, "He asked me to learn magic … learn how to use the Eye of Agomodo to save him."
The prophet breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You can't trust him so easily, because he may not be the mage you know. This may be a monster outside of time using his image to lure you into their trap, or it may be that the mage himself is no longer trustworthy. You don't know what happened after he was banished to time. Anything is possible. "
"The second prophet said, a scholar who has been away for three days should be looked at in a new light."
"It means that a person who is away for three days may undergo a shocking change. You have to dig out your own understanding of him from your eyes, wash it, and look at him again. It means that a person who is away for three days cannot be trusted! "
"I'll be careful …" The little spider changed the topic and said, "Right, do you know anyone who is proficient in magic?"
