"Your Majesty, with all due respect, I think it would be better for your people to hide for a while."
Hogness, the old sorcerer, was sitting next to Queen Hippolyte. He was trying his best to persuade the stubborn queen to evacuate the residents of Paradise Island. This place was about to become a battlefield, and sending a group of women to the battlefield would be a disgrace to all men, even though these women could fight better than 80% of the men.
"No need!"
Queen Hippolyte was never an easy person to talk to. This powerful woman who had ruled Paradise Island for more than 1,000 years did not even bother to talk to Hogness. This was actually understandable. The old sorcerer could take advantage of his 300 years of age to flaunt his seniority to others, but this trick did not work on the queen.
"Paradise Island will not allow a group of outsiders to fight on our land and remain silent. This is a humiliation to the Amazons!"
The queen's fingers danced on her scepter as she stared at Hogness.
"If it wasn't for the Sorcerer Supreme falling into my territory, I wouldn't have even allowed you to enter … You don't have to persuade me about the necessity of this war either. I know better than you what those gods are like. Back then, I even saw with my own eyes how they fought over the soul of a saint. They are a bunch of parasites, a bunch of vampires. If we want to expel them, our warriors won't give up their responsibility either."
"That's what your warriors should do, not your people!"
The old sorcerer was not a very good-tempered person. He said angrily, "Even the Sorcerer Supreme is seriously injured. Your Majesty, aren't you underestimating the gods? I don't want to see corpses everywhere. Paradise Island will be the first battlefield where we gather the gods. The intensity of the battle here will be beyond your imagination. "
This sentence seemed to have moved the stubborn queen. She closed her eyes and thought. Finally, she opened her mouth and said,
"Then where should we go? My people have 300,000 people. How can I take in so many people at once? "
"Let's go to my place."
A deep voice sounded from outside the hall. Following the guidance of a guard, Seiber strode into Queen Hippolyte's palace with a longsword in his hand. He took a look at the decorations and the antique collectibles around him and whispered, "What are you waiting for?"
"It seems that you and your daughter have the same aesthetic standards. Nice to meet you, Your Majesty. I am the nominal leader of Utopia, Saber Hawk. Your daughter is currently receiving treatment at my place. I think she will also want to see her mother the moment she opens her eyes."
"You want me to leave too?"
The queen heard Saber's implied meaning immediately. She sneered, "You want a king to leave his own kingdom? That's impossible! "
"Desperate times call for desperate measures!"
Saber's his voice, he snapped his fingers, "Sergues, send them up!"
"Buzz!"
Blue teleportation beams covered the queen's palace at this moment, enveloping the body of every female warrior. In the sky above Paradise Island, an invisible spaceship slowly revealed its huge body. This was the last mothership of Hydra. After the war, Saber repaired it and used it as a troop carrier. Its teleportation mode was very advanced, enough to clear all the guards in the palace at once.
"Saber! What are you doing? "
As a powerful sorcerer and warrior, Queen Hippolyte only needed to struggle slightly to shatter the blue teleportation light around her body. But the next moment, Saber took a step forward, cut Queen Hippolyte's neck with his palm, and then threw her back into the teleportation beam. After doing all this, he looked back at the stunned old sorcerer and shrugged.
"This is our war. I don't want to lead a group of women into battle. Let's wait until all the men on Earth are dead before we let the women fight! Where is Sorcerer Supreme? I want to see her. "
"Come with me!"
The old sorcerer's cane tapped lightly on the ground, and the two disappeared in an instant. When they reappeared, they were already in a hospital in the hinterland of Paradise Island.
Yes, the Amazons worshipped ancient bravery and maintained their own way of life. However, this did not mean that they were backward. In fact, they were also progressing. They were even more open-minded than most countries on Earth. Naturally, they had their own hospitals, but the treatment methods were still mainly based on ancient healing magic.
When Saber arrived, he found that there were too many acquaintances gathered outside the ward, from Stark, who was wearing a gray suit, to Spider, who had a sad face, to Batman, Johnny Blaze, who was wearing a flight jacket, Bruce Banner, Clark, who was still wearing his office uniform and flat glasses, and The Flash, whose hair was messy.
These people had more or less come into contact with Sorcerer Supreme because of Saber, and they knew what she had done for the world.
It was no exaggeration to say that she was greater than anyone in the world in the past 1000 years. She had sacrificed too much for the world.
"Go and see her, Saber."
Spider, who was still like a high school student, wiped his eyes and said, "She has been waiting for you … It's too tragic."
Saber patted his shoulder silently, greeted everyone, and then strode into the ward. When he first entered the room, he smelled a strong herbal smell, as well as the unconcealable smell of blood. He walked around the wall and saw Sorcerer Supreme lying on the hospital bed, and he did not know whether she was dead or alive. Beside her, Strange and Mordo were constantly using healing magic to try to heal her injuries.
However, the wounds all over her arms and body were entangled with all kinds of divine power, and they could not be removed by mortal power. Strange could only use the Time Gem to restore them to their original state bit by bit. Judging from Doctor Strange's tired look, he was obviously not skilled enough in using the Time Gem.
Professor Saber sat by the hospital bed, holding the Mind Gem in his hand, and placed his left hand on Sorcerer Supreme's arm, waking up her tired mind little by little. This was the first time that Saber had seen such a weak Ancient One, and it was also the first time that he had seen this big boss who always gave people confidence in such a helpless posture, so much so that at this moment when he saw her, a thought flashed through Saber's mind.
"It turns out that she can also be injured, it turns out that she can also be weak …"
What followed was a kind of anger that made him clench his fists. He walked stiffly, step by step, to the hospital bed. He looked at the tragic wound as if he had felt it himself.
"How dare they … hurt her like this?"
"Don't they know that such an injury will make so many heroes angry, and they will unite against a common enemy …"
Then, Saber was relieved.
"Yeah, they don't care, they have the power, they can do whatever they want … The anger of a group of ants can't change anything."
He looked at his clenched fist:
"Is this what it feels like to be weak?"
"This feeling, why … is it so uncomfortable!"
He sat on the chair in front of the hospital bed. He leaned over and whispered:
"Ancient One, wake up, I'm here to see you."
Sorcerer Supreme did not answer, and Saber was stunned for a moment, then he raised his voice:
"Hey, didn't you hear me? Then I'll speak louder … I'm here to see you, open your eyes. "
"Saber!"
The Professor immediately noticed that Saber's state didn't seem to be right. He grabbed Saber's left hand, and the next moment, he was knocked away by the rising flames. In silence, the energy in Saber's body boiled to an almost uncontrollable point. Looking at his dilated eyes, the Professor suddenly realized.
It turned out that after getting along with each other, Sorcerer Supreme's position in Saber's heart has quietly risen to such an important level.
If the existence of Catherine and Selena, May and Felicity makes Saber feel the warmth of family, then Ancient One, who always tolerates his various mistakes and recklessness, is probably equivalent to the position of his father in his heart. The longer he spends with Saber, the more the Professor can discover that under this tough appearance, there is actually a very sensitive soul hidden.
He has never had these before, so he will cherish and enjoy these things more and more.
Whoever wants to take these away from him will suffer his desperate revenge … The disaster that almost happened because of Catherine, and Loki's tragic death because of Gotham, all of these prove this point.
"Calm down, you can't solve the problem like this …"
Charles' voice sounded in Saber's heart, calming his somewhat chaotic mind a little. He breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the few people around him apologetically, then stretched out his hand and gently wiped the blood from the corner of Saber's mouth. He stood up, strode out of the room, and then grabbed Barry.
"You can go back to the past, right?"
His eyes stared at Barry, making Barry feel as if he was pounced on by a beast on the verge of exploding. Little Lightning nodded subconsciously, and a smile appeared on the corner of Saber's mouth:
"Then go back and bring her back … Remind her not to go to that trap, you can do that, right?"
"I can't! Saber! "
Barry said bitterly: "For someone like Sorcerer Supreme, the fate involved is too heavy, I dare not make such an attempt. Once there is a slight change, it may be worse than the current situation …"
"And, do you think that she is the kind of person who will listen to my advice and not do what she thinks is right?"
Barry's words made Saber's tightened fingers suddenly slip. Yes, she is not that kind of person, if she thinks that something must be done, she will not hesitate.
"Then … Then how should I save her?"
Saber raised his head, his face was full of confusion. Behind him, Batman put his hand on his shoulder:
"Enough! Saber, you will only make her feel more uncomfortable like this! Cheer up, there is still a battle to fight! "
"I …"
"Saber!"
A call came from behind, Saber turned his head, Strange stood there, a trace of pain flashed in the tired Doctor Strange's eyes, and whispered:
"Master is awake, she is waiting for you!"
Saber walked quickly into the ward, and after walking around the wall, he was surprised to see an intact Sorcerer Supreme, standing by the window, bathed in the sun like many times in the past. For a moment, Saber was ecstatic, thinking that she had recovered.
But when he saw the dark red liquid wrapped around her body, Saber's fist suddenly tightened at this moment.
She, sure enough, used the worst method.
"You will kill yourself …"
He said in a deep voice: "You should be lying in bed waiting for treatment now, instead of betting everything on one throw … Without you, we can still win this battle!"
"Oh? Without me, can you really do it? "
Ancient One turned her head, and her face, which had completely returned to normal, had a trademark gentle smile. She pretended to be puzzled and asked: "Did you suddenly master super power after I left? Or will the gods not dare to come because they are afraid of you? "
Saber still wanted to say something, but in the end, he lowered his head:
"I'm sorry … My growth is too slow."
"No, no, no. No one can ask you to do better than that. Seiber, you've already done better than I expected. You and this world both need time. My biggest regret is that I couldn't buy you enough time before I leave. I'm afraid you'll have to walk your own path in the future."
Sorcerer Supreme said softly: "Never underestimate you, Saber, never underestimate the great things you will do … Come on, while there is still time, tell me about your past world, I am suddenly interested in it."
"Are there gods in your world?"
"There is faith, but there are no gods …"
"Are there Mutants and Inhumans in your world?"
"No!"
"Is there frequent war in your world?"
"It has been peaceful for more than 70 years, and it is estimated that it will continue to be peaceful."
"Then in your world, is there a sorcerer like me? Is there magic? "
"No, and probably not in the future."
"Wow … That would be … What a wonderful world …"
