"Ancient One!!!"
Accompanied by Lilith's scream, a gorgeous bald man walked out of the aperture portal. →Ninety years have passed, and the years have not left any trace on Ancient One's face. The only thing that has changed is Ancient One's eyes, which are deeper than the last time Kai met her. Her calm eyes contain wisdom that ordinary people can hardly reach. The corners of her mouth seem to be always slightly tilted, as if she is smiling or not, making it impossible to guess the emotions of this woman.
Ancient One's appearance is not beautiful, at most she has regular features, but such an ordinary appearance makes people unconsciously attracted to her. That kind of attraction is not the superficial attraction between men and women, but a kind of yearning and tranquility, as if standing in front of you is a deep blue sea, calm but daunting.
After walking out of the portal, he did not pay attention to Lilith, but looked at Kai at Lilith's feet with a warm look.
Kai pulled the corner of his mouth and said a little embarrassedly: "You should have come earlier."
Ancient One showed a beautiful smile, and did not laugh at Kai's embarrassment. In fact, as early as hundreds of years ago, Ancient One had gotten rid of this kind of low-level interest. "Sorry, the space shock caused by Lilith has brought some troubles. I have to deal with those things first, so I am late."
When this woman spoke, her emotions were unusually restrained. Even if she was talking with a smile, her tone was always so unhurried, gentle but lacking emotion. "In addition, I didn't expect to meet you again. To be honest, your current state does make me a little curious. How did you get like this?"
Ancient One and Kai have fought side by side. She knows Kai's strength very well, but now when she sees Kai again, she unexpectedly finds that he is so weak.
When Kai heard what Ancient One said, he was immediately amused. If you only listen to the tone of this woman, you will think that she has known everything for a long time. She is always so confident, as if nothing can escape her eyes.
But in fact, she has always been like this. She never pretends to be hypocritical, but it is very easy for others to mistakenly think that everything is under control. This kind of personality sounds annoying, but it is so natural for Ancient One.
"It's hard to explain, it's a very long story." Kai smiled bitterly.
The two of them chatted very well, but the problem was that they ignored another person.
"Enough! Who do you think I am? I am the mother of mankind! The demon lord, the eternal master of succubi, the blessed mother - Lilith!" It feels bad to be ignored, especially when these two people actually forced themselves into a desperate situation!
The two seemed to take Lilith for granted, and they were not afraid of her making any trouble.
This is too contemptuous!
"The mother of mankind...?" Kai and Ancient One looked at this shameless female demon with tacit understanding. How humans were born, modern science has already made a perfect explanation, there is no need to doubt it. Moreover, when human beings appeared on the earth, Lilith didn't even know where they were. She still brazenly said that she was the mother of mankind, which made Kai and Gu Yi admire Lilith's face.
Could it be that a lie can become the truth after being told a thousand times?
Perhaps Kai's expression was too explicit, making Lilith feel that he was really laughing at her. Although this was the case, the problem was another person. Lilith was too afraid. Even though she knew that Gu Yi was also laughing at her, she chose to ignore it and vented her anger on Kai.
The beautiful foot on Kai's chest exerted force.
Crack!
Kai felt his ribs broken.
Lilith originally planned to step on this bastard who ruined her good deeds, but the next moment, a halo suddenly appeared under Kai, and then Kai disappeared. Lilith's feet were empty, and she almost stepped on the halo, but the halo disappeared immediately, leaving only a trace of sparks flying, and Lilith's feet also stepped on the ground.
Looking up, Kai fell from Gu Yi's side and was caught by a fat Chinese man.
Kai pulled the corner of his mouth and greeted the fat man who caught him.
The fat Chinese man didn't seem to know Kai's background, so he smiled very friendly, helped Kai to the ground, and patted Kai's shoulder to comfort him. After all, no one would feel good if they encountered such a thing.
Kai shook his head, but still thanked the fat man for his comfort. He raised his head and looked at the demons captured by the wizards with spells, and said nothing. With Kamar-Taj's familiarity with demons, they should have many ways to expel those demons from the bodies of these civilians, and it was not Kai's turn to worry about it.
So Kai turned his eyes to Sandra's body.
After two bitter smiles, Kai staggered to Sandra's side and sat down a little decadently. She was still dead, and her death was worthless.
Kai was in a very conflicted mood. He blamed himself for not being decisive enough. If he had not cared about the casualties of civilians from the beginning, he might have destroyed the ritual before it was completed. Then everything could at least be saved. If nothing else, at least Kelly wouldn't have become what he is now.
On the other hand, Kai also blamed himself for killing Sandra. He clearly wanted to save her at the beginning, but in the end, he killed her with his own hands!
But no matter what, Kai failed, and lost badly.
The bottom line was broken, and nothing was accomplished!
...
On the other side, Kai was not as silent.
The Ancient One was actually very angry with Lilith. The timing of Lilith's plan was too tricky.
For Kamar-Taj, demons have always been a minor problem. As long as the world is protected, they will not have many opportunities to threaten the entire human race. Although the original intention of Kamar-Taj was indeed to deal with demons. But in the past ten thousand years, the main enemy of Kamar-Taj has long become Dormammu in the dark dimension.
Speaking of which, Dormammu should be considered as the predecessor of the Ancient One. He was originally a wizard, but when he was learning spells, he accidentally discovered other dimensions and found a chaotic and disordered dimension in it, the dark dimension. In order to gain more powerful power, he broke the wizard's ban and entered the dark dimension. In order to become the master of the dark space, Dormammu abandoned his original body and obtained extremely powerful dark power. His body was also replaced by terrible magic flames, and then began to conquer other dimensions.
He has always been nostalgic for his hometown Earth. It's just that the relationship and distance between dimensions are very complicated. Even if Dormammu wants to find the Earth covered by the world's protection in the endless dimensions, it is very difficult.
In the history of Kamar-Taj, Dormammu has only a few records of invasion, and each time he was repelled by Kamar-Taj and the Supreme Sorcerer.
But don't think you can underestimate this lord of the dark dimension.
In short, this gentleman's desire for the Earth far exceeds that of other dimensions. Whenever there is a chance, he will get involved. This time, Lilith used the backhand she left in the human world to connect the space rift and wanted to return to the human world. As a result, this was a signpost for Dormammu, so Dormammu took this opportunity to attack again.
Otherwise, how could the huge Kamar-Taj react so slowly? Even if Lilith dared to come to the earth alone in her heyday, she would only be beaten up by Kamar-Taj.
It was Dormammu who caught Kamar-Taj off guard. Kamar-Taj had never expected such a thing to happen, and had no preparation in advance, so Dormammu suddenly plotted against it. However, with this one move, more than 30 mages of Kamar-Taj were swallowed by darkness! Among them was an apprentice that the Ancient One was very optimistic about.
It was also because of this that Lilith had an opportunity to take advantage of.
Compared with Dormammu, Lilith was only a small problem.
Kamar-Taj was much more rational than Kai. How could a few thousand or tens of thousands of people be compared with the entire earth? They knew clearly what was important.
But this small problem not only made Kamar-Taj flustered, but also lost so many backbone forces. Even if the Ancient One cultivated himself, he was still furious, but he was just well-mannered and didn't show it on his face.
After finally repelling Dormammu, Kamar-Taj naturally turned around to deal with the culprit. Originally, they thought that after such a long time, Lilith would have run away, but they didn't expect that when they came back to their senses, oh, this guy is still there!
So the army came to kill Lilith, and Lilith was in trouble. Ancient One personally came to greet Lilith and killed her directly!
Kai didn't know all this, but he didn't complain about it. He felt that it was all Kamar-Taj's fault. Others are helping voluntarily, okay!
Strictly speaking, Kamar-Taj is a non-profit organization! They don't collect taxes from the whole world, and others are not obliged to serve the people! They can come because of human feelings, and it's normal if they don't come. So Kai really didn't blame them.
But it's impossible to say that he didn't feel unhappy. It's human nature. Kai is not a saint. He can be happy or sad because of things, but he can still understand the big principles. It can even be said that they can rush here at the most critical time to prevent other innocent people from being harmed, which is already a great virtue!
While Kai was feeling confused, the other side also decided the winner.
Actually, there is nothing much to say. If this is the case, Lilith can escape, so Kamar-Taj should be disbanded. There is no point in keeping her.
Lilith is also miserable. Although Kamar-Taj can repel Dormammu, it can't do anything to him. So Lilith became a punching bag.
In the end, if Kai hadn't stopped Ancient One, Lilith would probably have died.
"Why?"
Ancient One didn't understand. What's the point of keeping this scourge?
Kai smiled bitterly and could only tell the whole story.
At last, Kai looked at Lilith with a ferocious face and said helplessly: "I originally promised her mother to protect them... But now, her mother was killed by me. If she... Although it's a bit embarrassing, I think you Kamar-Taj should have a way, right? I owe you a favor for this matter."
Although Kai and Agamotto, the first generation Supreme Sorcerer of Kamar-Taj, had some friendship, it was a mess ten thousand years ago. He didn't have much to do with the current Kamar-Taj. Even if they fought side by side at the beginning, it was what he should do. He didn't think Kamar-Taj owed him anything. And he didn't have anything that Kamar-Taj needed. It's not that Kai was reluctant to give it up. Kai did accumulate a lot of wealth, but the question was how many years Kai lived.
How many years has Kamar-Taj existed?
You have to know that in these ten thousand years, Kai has been lying in the mausoleum for more than nine thousand years! And Kamar-Taj has existed for ten thousand years!
Even if Kamar-Taj doesn't care much about wealth, it has accumulated a lot of gold and silver. As for artifacts, they are a magic organization, how can they be without them?
So, Kai can only repay them with favors.
Gu Yi is also an old and wise man, and he can still hear this.
However, she did not answer, but smiled, pinched her hands, and tapped on Lilith's head.
Lilith, who was leaning on Kelly, immediately felt a force pulling her out!
How could Lilith be willing to leave Kelly's body? Before, Kelly's body was an important prop for her to recover her strength, and now it is even more incredible. It has become her trump card to save her life. She also heard what Kai said. Kelly is her amulet. As long as she stays in Kelly's body, Kai will not allow anyone to hurt her.
Unfortunately, the phoenix that fell to the ground is not as good as a chicken. Lilith's power was greatly damaged, and she was no match for Gu Yi at all.
"Ah!!!!!!!"
In the end, she was forced out of Kelly's body by Gu Yi. Kelly screamed to the sky, and a bright red smoke gushed out from her mouth, nose, and eyes. The blood-colored smoke rushed into the sky and fled into the distance.
Lilith would not give up any chance to survive.
But someone was waiting for him. Two golden lights shot out from behind Kai and hit the center of the smoke. Then two holy swords fell from the sky and pierced into the smoke.
The flames immediately exploded from the red mist, and the red mist burned into a fire meteor in the air, and sparks continued to fall from the air. In an instant, the sky was set off by the fire trees and silver flowers, which was extremely moving!
Kai didn't care about the rising experience of the golden finger, but just felt a little relieved... At least he killed the culprit, right?
After exhaling fiercely, Kai turned around and planned to say something to Gu Yi.
But Gu Yi spoke first.
"You owe me more than this little favor."
After saying that, without waiting for Kai to ask why, he directly pulled out a one-eyed amulet from his collar. Under Gu Yi's spell, the eye in the middle of the eye amulet turned for a while, and it actually opened like a real eye!
A green gem as an eyeball emits dazzling rays containing endless magic power.
The light became brighter and brighter, and finally enveloped everything around!
At this time, a rune similar to a dial appeared on Gu Yi's left hand. She gently turned it with her right hand, and the rune dial immediately turned counterclockwise, and everything around her went back as if it was a rewind tape.
The destroyed houses, the people killed by the demons, and the raindrops falling on the ground all began to recover!
Even Sandra began to recover!
