Chapter 674 Notes of the Dead!
The Supreme Sanctuary is the gathering place for all arcane magic and mysterious powers on Earth.
This place is protected by various powerful magics, and ordinary people cannot get here through these layers of restrictions.
Many occultists have searched for the secrets of magic, but no one would have thought that one of the gathering places of the largest magic organization in the world is actually on a street in New York.
【Those fogs do not limit your steps. 】
"Yes, they can't stop me, or it can be said that they have no independent mind at all. If my guess is correct, these mist should be a defensive formation, but for some reason, the defense here is The formation was destroyed, and the hard magic energy was blown into powder by some powerful force, causing it to become the current mist-like state. "
Zhang Yinian walked up the steps mumblingly. Along the way, the mist did not react at all, as if they were not aware of Zhang Yi's approach.
[But these fogs are still effective, right? After all, this place has not been discovered by others for such a long time. There should still be some kind of power left here that keeps ordinary people out. 】
Miss Time floated behind Zhang Yi, curiously looking at everything around her.
"Yes, they still have an effect. The repulsion of non-wizards by these magical energies themselves is responsible for all this."
Zhang Yi smiled slightly and continued.
"If I were really an 'ordinary person', then they wouldn't be able to let me in, but even if I gather all the special energy, the reality that I am a wizard will not change, and because I gave up Without those magical energies, I am no longer a threat like an ordinary person, so I should be considered a bug."
Arriving at the door unobstructed, the handle on the door bolt was a little faded, the bronze door knocker was hanging weakly, the color on it was fading little by little, and some rust could still be seen in the corners.
Even though Zhang Yi could no longer open the Wizard's Eye, he could still tell with his naked eyes that the magic circle originally carved on the door knocker had completely lost its effect.
Raising his hand, Zhang Yi carefully placed it on the door handle. With a slight exertion, the door slowly opened with a dull sound.
Although there was only a gap opened, Zhang Yi could still clearly feel the cold air blowing from the gap, as if an extremely low air conditioner was on in the room, and the deep sound echoed in the empty hall. Like an echo in the valley.
Zhang Yi's hand pushing the door paused, neither opening it nor closing it.
Miss Time next to her also discovered what Zhang Yi was thinking, and she spread her hands helplessly.
[Although judging from the current situation, this place should have been abandoned for a long time, but you also know about magic. God knows if there are some old monsters sealed in it. It would be great if Pietro was here, and he could be Go in and explore]
Speaking of this, Miss Time suddenly noticed a change in Zhang Yi's expression.
When she saw Zhang Yi's sudden smile, Miss Time shuddered.
[Sir, what do you want to do? 】
"I just think what you said makes sense." Zhang Yi smiled and stretched out his hand to grab Miss Time's body. The originally illusory Miss Time actually turned into reality in Zhang Yi's hands.
【Yes, but.】
Before Miss Time could finish speaking——
"Come in you!"
Zhang Yi waved his arms, and Miss Time suddenly flew in through the gap in the door like a Frisbee. The orange-yellow light dispersed part of the darkness inside, revealing the original appearance of some things.
Zhang Yi did not close the door, but left a gap open. At the same time, he put his ears upright and pressed against the door, listening to what was going on inside.
After about a few dozen seconds, Miss Time's retching sound came from inside. It seemed that this guy was knocked unconscious.
"I guess that's a sign of safety."
Zhang Yi thought for a moment, then pushed the door open with force and walked in.
A gust of cold wind hit from the front. Apart from that, there were no other attacks. The magic trap that Zhang Ye originally expected was not triggered. The entire hall was extremely quiet.
[Sir, let me remind you again, this is not how I use it.]
Miss Time floated towards Zhang Yi in a daze with two mosquito-repellent eyes.
Zhang Yi ignored her, but took out a flashlight, shook it and turned on the switch.
As the flashlight burst out with white light, the darkness in front of him was instantly dispersed, and the entire hall environment appeared in front of Zhang Yi's eyes.
Devices related to magic can be seen everywhere in the house. Facing the door is a two-way circular staircase leading to the second floor. Near the wall, you can also see a storage that stores the limbs of various strange creatures. cabinet.
"You know, I have always been curious about one thing, that is, when someone goes to a dark place, why does he use a flashlight? Isn't he afraid that as soon as he turns on the flashlight, he will be discovered by unknown monsters in the dark? ?"
Zhang Yi murmured while shining his flashlight around.
[So what do you think now? 】Miss Time asked.
"Now? Now I know that even if you are discovered by an unknown existence and your position is exposed, it is better than walking in the dark in this shabby place where you can't see your fingers."
I don’t know if it’s because it’s late at night outside, even though there are windows here, the entire Supreme Sanctuary is still dark, as if something is blocking the light.
Following the light of the flashlight, Zhang Ye saw the mess of glass fragments on the ground, as if a battle had broken out here before. Not only that, some magic objects also fell on the ground casually, but there was no magic energy reaction on them, and they became ordinary objects.
Zhang Ye picked up a wooden stick casually. If the guess is correct, this should be a staff used by a wizard, but now, this thing is no different from firewood.
"What is this."
Zhang Ye frowned slightly, and a ripple appeared in his mind.
To be honest, when Zhang Ye saw the existence of the Supreme Sanctuary, he was very uneasy, because in his mind, there was no way that Doctor Strange would appear in the X-Men universe, let alone wizards.
But now, the Supreme Sanctuary really appeared in front of him, which made Zhang Ye curious about this universe.
The history of wizards is very long, even earlier than the history of mutants. If there are traces of wizard activities in this universe, then this means that this place is under the protection of wizards, and it is impossible for this place to become what it is now.
But if something happens to these wizards, then all assumptions are true.
Zhang Ye went down the stairs to the second floor. The situation here was worse than the first floor. Everything was smashed to the ground. The original exquisite carpet was still stained with the breath of black magic, and there was a faint cry in the air.
"Undead magic?"
Zhang Ye frowned slightly. After swallowing the Shadow King, he was very sensitive to these energies, but the environment here made him feel like he was back in Emma's welfare home.
Continuing to go deeper, Zhang Ye stopped slightly in a corner of the house.
Reaching out and pushing open the door, Zhang Ye shone the light of the flashlight inside.
With a 'creaking' sound, the light illuminated the scene in the room, but the next moment, Zhang Ye's hand holding the flashlight trembled violently, and he himself was frightened by the figure in the room.
In the center of the room, a person was sitting on a chair with his back to the door. Zhang Ye couldn't see his appearance, but in such a dark environment, the sudden appearance of a person still scared Zhang Ye.
He took two steps back, feeling his rapid heartbeat, and exhaled slowly.
He shone the flashlight again, and seeing that the other party's body did not move, Zhang Ye turned his head and looked at Miss Time.
[No life reaction was sensed. ]
Hearing Miss Time's answer, Zhang Ye nodded thoughtfully.
Even if it is a dead soul, there will still be a 'life' reaction in Miss Time's perception. After all, in the eyes of a high-dimensional creature like Miss Time, the soul also represents the continuation of life.
Since she said there is no life reaction, it means that there is no life here, neither the material level nor the spiritual soul level.
After feeling relieved, Zhang Ye took out his pistol and walked into the house while preparing to meet the enemy.
He followed the wall all the way to the opposite side of the humanoid creature, and then Zhang Ye discovered that this was actually a man who had been dead for who knows how many years.
Zhang Ye could not guess the identity of the deceased, but he could judge that the cause of death should be the wound in the abdomen. Zhang Ye could not sense any magical energy now, but judging from the appearance of the wound, it was probably the same black magic as the "Wind of Disaster".
The corpse has been dried very badly now, but the clothes on his body have not changed at all. It seems that it should be protected by some kind of magic, or it may be made of some special materials.
The corpse maintained the sitting posture at the time of death. In his hand, he tightly held a black book, which seemed to be some kind of magic book.
Zhang Ye took the initiative to reach out and broke the book out of the corpse's hand.
Asking Miss Time to help observe the possible dangers around, Zhang Ye sat on a table in the room with the book and slowly opened the book.
Zhang Ye looked at it with the help of the flashlight and found that it was not a magic book at all, but a record book similar to a diary.
'January 1, 2000. '
'A mystic and scientist named Huey Everett once proposed an interesting theory, a collection of infinite or finite possible universes, including some possible things, a world coexisting with space, time, matter, and energy'
'That is, the multiverse theory.'
'The past, present, and future of the universe are all destined, and it is a linear wavelength that cannot be interfered with by external forces.'
'But in recent years, according to the discovery of my mentor Gu Yi.'
'. Our history is being modified by some unknown existence! '
