Chapter 153 You Want Me to Be the Sorcerer Supreme?
The portal that Kevin created, the other side of the location is Kamar-Taj.
But the Ancient One is not in Kamar-Taj. According to Yondu, the guardian of the New York Temple is on vacation today, and the Ancient One went to help take over.
That's what he said.
Kevin then came to the New York Temple again and saw the Ancient One drinking tea on the rooftop of the temple.
"Are you back to relax?"
Seeing Kevin come back, the Ancient One waved gently, and a cup of tea fell on the seat next to the tea table.
She was motioning Kevin to sit next to her.
Kevin took a deep breath and exhaled slowly.
He sat opposite the Ancient One:
"Fighting with Ego and then fighting with Ultron, this is far from relaxing."
"At least you got what you wanted, isn't that enough?"
The Ancient One refers to Ultron's body.
As a 'local specialty' of the Marvel world, Ultron's body can indeed help Kevin a lot. If the technology on Ultron can be reversed, the Vought Group managed by Kevin will really be invincible in the black robe world.
Even if those groups compete, how can they compete with Kevin's black technology?
But Kevin didn't ask Gu Yi to come over to talk about these things.
He sat next to Gu Yi without hesitation and looked at her:
"I went to see Odin."
"Oh, is he in good health?"
"Not bad... I heard from Odin that you mentioned me in front of him?"
"Is there any problem? Although Odin and I are not friends, at this age, it seems normal to visit occasionally, meet old acquaintances, and talk about recent things?"
Gu Yi smiled and drank tea, as if the matter was really as she said.
She went to chat with Odin and mentioned Kevin, which was really just an ordinary chat.
Kevin also wanted to think so, after all, he didn't think he had any place to be selected by Gu Yi and become the candidate for the next Supreme Master.
This is too outrageous.
But Kevin knew that Gu Yi was not the kind of person who would really chat casually.
"…Then what did you say about me? Did you say I was a visitor from another world? Or…"
"My most proud disciple now, what do you think of this title?"
Kevin was still looking for a topic, but Gu Yi gave the answer directly.
The most proud disciple.
This sounded incredible, Kevin didn't think he could bear the title of Gu Yi.
He even thought Gu Yi was joking for a while.
"…This joke…is not really funny."
Gu Yi didn't say anything.
"…You are joking, right?"
Kevin confirmed again, but Gu Yi just smiled and looked at him quietly.
The smile on Kevin's face completely disappeared. He took a deep breath again and tried to calm himself down:
"So my guess was right? You want me to... become the next Supreme Sorcerer?"
"Obviously."
"Why me? You should know that I am not from this world. I may leave at any time and never come back. I am not qualified to be the Supreme Sorcerer at all. The person who can really become the Supreme Sorcerer is..."
"Stephen Strange, I know, he is the person I once chose, and he is indeed suitable to be the Supreme Sorcerer, but you know, and I know, that he will do some... headaches in the future."
Ancient One paused in the middle of her words. She seemed to know what Strange would do in the future, but before that, there was indeed no wizard better than Strange.
So Ancient One could only choose Strange until Kevin appeared.
Kevin was still thinking about what Ancient One said, and Ancient One said to him again:
"In fact, when you said this, you already have the qualifications to become the Supreme Sorcerer."
"Which sentence?"
"'I am not qualified to be the Supreme Sorcerer'. This sentence, you know clearly what kind of potential you have and what kind of power you will have in the future, but you still think that you will not become the Supreme Sorcerer. This alone makes you qualified."
Kevin himself can see how powerful Kevin will be in the future.
As long as he keeps investing skill points in the skill tree, after the second job transfer, the third job transfer, and even countless job transfers in the future.
He will become stronger and stronger, more and more like a god.
At that time, the position of a Supreme Sorcerer will not be a big deal.
But Kevin still feels that he is not qualified to sit in this position.
The reason is that the position of the Supreme Sorcerer does not represent strength, but a responsibility.
The Supreme Sorcerer must protect the earth in the Marvel world and protect the earth from the invasion of multiple dimensions. This is a heavy responsibility.
Kevin didn't think he could take on such a responsibility.
Gu Yi should also understand that he was not suitable for such a responsibility.
"I still don't understand why it was me... why did you choose me from the beginning? What did I do?"
Kevin didn't understand.
He didn't think much about it before, but now thinking back to the first meeting with Ancient One, Kevin knew that Ancient One might have had similar ideas from the beginning.
Even when Kevin came to this world, the moment he met Ancient One, she had the idea of letting Kevin inherit the Supreme Sorcerer.
But Kevin couldn't understand why Ancient One did this.
Kevin looked into Ancient One's eyes seriously, hoping to get an answer from her.
Ancient One did not answer directly, but suddenly asked Kevin:
"You should know that I can see the future?"
"Yes."
"Then aren't you curious about what the future I see is like?"
"...You want to say that your choice of me is related to the future you see?"
Kevin asked.
He had guessed before that the reason why Ancient One was friendly to him was because she saw some future about herself, but it had never been confirmed.
Now what Ancient One said was equivalent to confirming Kevin's guess.
But what Kevin never expected was that the facts were much more absurd than he imagined.
"That's right." Ancient One replied, "If you know me, you should understand that the future I see is only a possibility of the future, just like a tributary extending from the side of a river.
"The world we live in is like a boat, drifting downstream on the river. The boat may continue to go down from the main road, or it may cross the tributary and go to a different destination.
"The water flow changes rapidly, and the future is also constantly changing. Some people may be heroes who save the world in the last second, and become villains who destroy the world in the next second... But you are different."
Ancient One finally got to the point.
She turned to Kevin and whispered:
"In all the futures I have seen, you have never hurt the world. Even in many timelines, you have been protecting the world and have never changed.
"I don't care what kind of person you are in other universes, but in the universe where I exist now, you will never become a villain. This is why I chose you."
"This is impossible. I am not that kind of person! "
After Gu Yi finished speaking, Kevin denied it decisively.
He didn't think that the person Gu Yi was talking about was himself.
Everything Kevin did now had his own purpose, saving the world, saving the characters in the plot, killing certain bosses, all for the purpose of obtaining skill points and turning them into nutrients to make himself stronger.
He would not do such selfless things, because he was not that kind of person at all.
So if in the future, harming the world might bring Kevin a lot of skill points, then he might hesitate and do it.
This possibility is not to say that there is no, but it is definitely far from 'zero'.
But now in Gu Yi, Kevin's future has become a great saint who protects the world, and there is not even a possibility of becoming bad.
This is simply a fantasy.
Kevin felt that Gu Yi must be in his old age and his mind was not so clear, otherwise how could he come to such an outrageous conclusion.
"I know that you will not become the kind of person I said now, because you have no attachment to this world at all, but I still believe in the future I see. "
Gu Yi also admitted that the Kevin she knew now was not the same as the Kevin she would see in the future.
At least, Kevin now had little affection for this world, and he seemed to have never taken some people in this world seriously.
Gu Yi also doubted whether he had seen it wrong.
But no matter how many times he had seen the future, the ending was almost the same, and Gu Yi could only choose to believe Kevin.
Believe that he would become what he saw in the future.
Gu Yi's firm belief made Kevin speechless for a while. He opened his mouth slightly, and said after a while:
"...I can't become the Supreme Sorcerer, because I'm not sure if I will come back after I leave here."
"Let's just say it like this."
Gu Yi's eyes moved away from Kevin, continued to drink tea, and jumped to another topic:
"Aren't you going to take out the reality gem on you? Wait a minute, I'll help you take it out. ”
“…” Ancient One was unwilling to continue the conversation, and Kevin had no way to continue. He held it in for a while, and finally could only choose to skip the topic and thanked Ancient One very stiffly:
“…Then I’ll trouble you.”
“You’re welcome.”
Ancient One smiled at Kevin.
…
With the help of Ancient One, the ether particles were separated from Kevin’s body with almost no effort.
Ancient One also prepared a special container to turn the ether particles into reality gems and return them to Kevin.
After getting the reality gems again, Kevin did not stay in Kamar-Taj.
Ever since knowing that Ancient One was determined to train him to become the next Supreme Sorcerer, Kevin always felt that something was wrong, and he had a mentality of ‘there are always villains who want to harm me’.
He did not dare to stay in Kamar-Taj any longer, for fear that he would really be captured by Ancient One to be the Supreme Sorcerer here. Kevin immediately joined the Guardians of the Galaxy and began to collect materials for making the gem crusher.
Thor contacted the leader of the dwarves and confirmed that the Infinity Gem Crusher could be made. He also gave Thor the corresponding list of materials. Everyone just needed to collect them according to this list.
With the help of the Guardians of the Galaxy in space, the Infinity Gem Crusher was made without much effort.
It was as simple as what Gamora and Tony did in an episode of "What If".
After a scene, the Infinity Gem Crusher was completed.
There is nothing much to say about what happened afterwards. Everyone took almost all the Infinity Gems they knew.
Thor took the Cosmic Cube hidden inside Asgard, smashed it, took out the Space Gem inside, and threw it into the crusher first.
Next was Kevin, who threw the Reality Gem in, followed by the Heart and Soul.
By the way, the Reality Gem was taken back to the Collector by Kevin before this, but before the Collector had played with it for a few days, Thor took the Reality Gem stored with the Collector with everyone in Asgard and handed it back to Kevin.
Well, the Reality Gem was returned anyway, so it's not a breach of contract.
All four gems were shattered, and Kevin gained 12 skill points, and one Infinity Gem gave him three skill points.
Not much, but not too little, after all, this is just an Infinity Gem in one universe.
There are so many universes in the Marvel world, and all the Infinity Gems added up are enough to fill Kevin's skill tree.
As long as Kevin can find a way to travel between the multiverses.
Finally, there are two Infinity Gems left.
One is on Xandar, which requires Asgard to talk to Xandar and ask them to hand over the Power Gem they have saved.
The other Time Gem cannot be moved yet.
Because the Ancient One wants to use it to protect the multidimensional space, at least before Strange grows up, the Time Gem cannot be shattered.
Of course, if Kevin is willing to accept the position of the Sorcerer Supreme, the Ancient One can give him the Time Gem.
Anyway, Kevin will be the guardian of the Time Gem at that time, and what he wants to do with the Time Gem has nothing to do with the Ancient One, because she will have retired by then.
But... Kevin doesn't want to be tied to this world.
Just three skill points, if you don't want them, it's no big deal.
