Beauty Man: Infinite Possession

Chapter 672 Weaknesses
"The future has changed."

New York Harbor.

The epitaph projected the changed future in his eyes for the first time.

Distracted and cast his eyes on the portal, the figure of Doctor Strange Stephen Strange is reflected in Dior's scarlet eyes.

"It seems that you have been constantly using your abilities to change time."

After a period of magic practice in Karma Taj, Stephen's control over magic has become more and more in-depth. With his own magic equipment, although there is still an obvious gap from the supreme mage Gu Yi, he is already a magic that can be alone. teacher.

Especially after Ancient One gave him the Eye of Agamotto, Stephen has already vaguely looked like Doctor Strange.

Raising his hand to control the dispersal of the portal behind him, Stephen looked at Dior and the ugly [Crimson King] behind him and raised his eyebrows.

"It seems that even the [Crimson King] cannot escape the power of the Time Stone."

Inside the antique shop, Li Ran couldn't help squinting his eyes as he watched Doctor Strange coming to the port through the portal.

[King of Crimson] The ability to cut time can delete everyone's memory, but obviously still can't escape the perception of the Eye of Agamotto or the time gem in it.

However, look at it from another angle.

This is a matter of course. No matter how powerful the [Crimson King] is, it can only cut off a dozen seconds of time in the world and foresee the future in about ten seconds.

However, the time gem, one of the infinite gems, can easily reverse time, pause time, foresee several futures, and other incredible abilities. Even if Stephen is more cruel and ignores the influence of gems on reality, he can completely create A closed time loop that keeps the world's time repeating until it collapses.

Of course, as the caretaker of the Eye of Agamotto in this generation.

Unless it is on the verge of extinction, Stephen will not easily use the power of the Eye of Agamotto to create a time loop.

This is what Gu taught him, and it is also Stephen's understanding after getting deeper into magic.

The power of the Time Stone doesn't come without a price.

It just seems to have no cost, but in fact, the cost of using gem power is borne by the whole world.

The thoughts of Li Ran in the antique shop did not affect the next actions of the clone Dior.

Its eyes fell on the Eye of Agamotto on Stephen's chest, and without hesitation, it activated the substitute ability of the [Crimson King].

"I see that the opportunity to surpass fate lies in you."

In the cut world dimension, Dio Brando walks in the broken void world.

During the cut time, Dio cannot interfere with the operation of other objects, but he can move in this world.

Strolling to Doctor Strange Stephen Strange, Dio stretched out his slender palm and placed it on the Eye of Agamotto.

Although Dior cannot make changes in time, he can prepare in advance.

"Sure enough, the final winner is me, Dio!"

Dio's palm and the Time Gem on Stephen's chest overlapped in the same position, and he was planning to grab the Eye of Agamotto in his hand the next second after the ability to eliminate time ended.

However, at the moment when Dio was about to activate the [Crimson King]'s ability leap to cut this period of time.

Suddenly, he noticed that the corners of Doctor Strange's eyes moved slightly in front of it.

"what?!"

Seeing this subtle movement, the expression on Dio Brando's face seemed to have been hit hard, showing an expression of disbelief.

"Impossible, why are you able to perform actions during the cut time."

Among the abilities activated by [The Crimson King], the only one who can move is obviously himself as the stand-in messenger.

"Cut out time."

Under Dio's shocked gaze, Stephen Strange's body imprisoned by time moved.

The flashing green light of the time gem sealed by magic on his chest shrouded his body, and Stephen raised his arm to form a time magic circle wrapped around it.

Looking at Dio in front of him: "It's really a dangerous ability, if I didn't mention using the Eye of Agamotto to see this future."

After noticing the weird changes in time, Stephen has already glimpsed the future picture in the port through the power of the time gem.

He saw the future where Dior took the gem from him, so he made preparations one step ahead.

Using the power of the Eye of Agamotto to form a time magic on his body, to avoid the influence of the [Crimson King] ability on himself.

Facing the invincible ability of [The Crimson King], Stephen could only crush it with a more powerful power of time.

"No, I don't believe it. The [Crimson King]'s power is invincible, and there can be no loopholes."

The expression on Dio's face begins to go wild as Doctor Strange breaks free from his own slashed time.

It activates the ability of the substitute, cutting off the time in front of it.

However, the time around is not taken by leaps and bounds.

The time magic circle on Doctor Strange's arm continuously rotated, emitting a faint green light.

"It's not just you who can control time."

Looking down at the time gem shining on his chest, the expression on Stephen's face turned into confidence.

"I can too."

With the power of the time gem, Stephen suspended the surrounding time.

Through the future glimpsed by the Time Stone, Doctor Strange has already understood the weakness of Dio's double [King Crimson].

【Crimson King】Although it has the powerful ability to eliminate all unfavorable times, it also has an unavoidable weakness.

That is, there are restrictions on the activation of [Crimson King]'s substitute ability.

That is to say, 【Crimson King】can't continue to cut time continuously, it must finish the ability to let time flow again before proceeding to the next cut.

Such a weakness may not be conspicuous in ordinary battles.

In other words, even if the enemy is aware of its weakness, there is nothing they can do.

Because [The Crimson King] can completely cut off the time before being targeted to avoid this unfavorable situation.

However, it was the more powerful Doctor Strange who also possessed the power of time and discovered the weakness of the stand-in.

The outcome of the battle was already doomed the moment Dio ended the [Crimson King]'s stand-in ability.

Under the influence of the power of the time gem, the time Stephen paused was not as short as the ten or so seconds when Dior launched the [Crimson King] to cut it off.

Aware of his situation, the double behind Dio [King Crimson] activated the ability of the epitaph again.

However, no matter which future projection it is, it tells Dior that it has no chance.

In the future picture, it saw that every time it fought back, Doctor Strange used the power of the Time Stone to resolve it.

Doctor Strange, who has mastered the power of the Time Stone, is, in a way, more powerful and invincible than Dio.

"No, this is not my Dior future, I don't recognize this future..."

The ability to activate the epitaph one after another, but there will be no change in the future.

The haughty look on Dio's face twisted.

It looked at Stephen in front of it, and shouted frantically.

"It's certainly not your future."

Facing Dio, who looked more and more crazy in front of him, the expression on Doctor Strange Stephen's face was extremely indifferent.

The time magic wrapped around his arm started to spin again.

Captain Marvel moved his finger.

Immediately afterwards, brilliant photon energy erupted from her body.

"I am?"

Looking down at the complex time magic circle that appeared on his arm, a dazed look flashed in Carol Danvers' eyes.

"This is the magic that allows you to move freely during the suspended time."

While looking at Dio in front of him with vigilant eyes, Stephen spoke to Captain Marvel who resumed his actions.

Even though he has learned the power of magic under the hands of Gu Yi, Stephen doesn't think that Dio can be solved by relying on his own magic alone, especially when he has to be distracted and trap the opponent with the power of the time gem. Avoid the situation where [King of Crimson] seizes the flaw and activates the ability to cut off the unfavorable time.

Stephen made it clear that he was able to use the power of the Time Gem to decipher the ability of [The Crimson King].

There are some elements of surprise in it.

And once Dior escaped from the suspended time, it would undoubtedly be impossible to trap him in the same way.

Therefore, he must get rid of Dior during this timeout.

Perhaps Stephen himself does not have this ability.

However, he can give it to someone who can do it.

For example, Captain Marvel Carol Danvers.

Hearing Stephen's words, the expression in Captain Marvel's eyes gradually returned from confusion to firmness.

Her eyes swept over everything that was suspended around her, and quickly locked on Dio's body. A large amount of photon energy on his body formed a brilliant light.

"No, I, Dior, am invincible, [King Crimson] activates your ability to leap time..."

"Don't come here ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!"

……

"So, I'm dead?"

Avengers Building, Tony looked at Jack Simon in front of him, and looked down at his intact body.

The injury left by Dio's penetration into his body seemed to not exist.

However, Tony clearly remembered that he had been penetrated by Dio in the chest.

This kind of injury, which is fatal to ordinary people, did not leave any marks on his body.

"To be precise, you once turned into an undead dead."

With a cigarette in his mouth, Jack Simon took a deep breath.

At the same time, under Tony's gaze, he flicked the gold coin in his hand, rotated and flipped it in mid-air, and finally fell back into Dao's palm.

"[Aztec Gold Coin], this is an abnormal [containment item] that was contained by the 'Chaos Insurgency' after they left the Foundation , a gift used to bribe the Spanish colonist Hernando Coster. However, Coster received the gift but broke his promise, greedily destroying the Aztec civilization, so the gold coin was cursed, anyone who took the gold coin, They will all be punished forever and become the dead."

"So, that's why you gave me this [Aztec Gold Coin]."

Before going to the port, Jack Simon once gave [Aztec Gold Coin] to Tony.

"I'm just planning for a rainy day."

"Thanks anyway, Jack."

If it wasn't for the [Aztec Gold Coin] that Jack Simon gave himself.

Or, today's Tony has died in the hands of Dior.

"Don't forget, we are collaborators."

"Collaborator."

Hearing Jack Simon's words, Tony's eyes flickered.

He turned his head and looked around him. The original Avengers Alliance had already been torn apart due to the civil war.

Even after experiencing a death.

Tony decided to let go of his hatred, and Nick Fury also proved that there is a huge conspiracy behind the entire "Superhero Registration Act", and even the president who promoted the implementation of the bill himself showed signs of being controlled. In this situation, with the arrival of Captain Marvel, under her powerful perception, she successfully broke the crisis and subdued the red giant General Ross who controlled the army.

It's a pity that the culprit who caused all this has disappeared.

On the other side, after realizing that the battle between the Avengers was nothing more than a conspiracy.

Captain America of the anti-registration faction gave up his plan to continue fighting. He realized that such a battle had no meaning except to cause deeper harm and hatred between superheroes, so he disbanded the anti-registration faction team.And leave with the Winter Soldier.

In this regard, Tony did not do anything to stop him, he at least watched everything happen silently.

He just gave the reason for his injury to the outside world and stepped back from the front line of the registration faction.

And as the registration faction dominated Iron Man's retreat, the anti-registration faction disbanded.

Because of the Superhero Registration Act, the haze of the civil war between superheroes and grotesques seems to have lifted.

However, on the other hand, the American government found that the Superhero Registration Act not only did not make American superheroes and grotesques more obedient, but caused more problems, especially when it was clear that there were obvious gaps in the process of promoting the entire bill. under defective conditions.

Because he had to change his approach, he made concessions on the Superhero Registration Act.

For this reason, the federal government agreed with Nick Fury's proposal.

Let the disbanded S.H.I.E.L.D. be re-established, and Nick Fury once again serves as the director of S.H.I.E.L.D.

The new S.H.I.E.L.D. is in charge of registering the act, and the act is no longer as mandatory as before.

The investigation of extraordinary people has always been the work of S.H.I.E.L.D. in the past.

So this action of the federal government, in a way, also represents the complete end of the Superhero Registration Act.
