Seeing that Celia was about to disappear into the darkness without mercy, Strange felt a little helpless, so he flew over.

"I have something to ask of you, Celia," he said. "I'm Strange, Mage Strange. I'm not a strange person. We've met before."

Celia thought about his name, and she seemed to remember something.

"Are you that weirdo who can predict the future, talkative, and full of theatrical charlatan air?"

"..." How many bad things did those bastards say about him behind his back?Strange said blankly, "It's me."

"Then you are a strange person." Celia looked around at the scene of the haunted house, her interest was not here at all, "What can you do with me? You can talk to Clark about everything about me, Otherwise, if he finds out, he will be jealous again. I don't want to be pestered by him every day for another month. "

Doctor Strange snorted.

"I'm glad to see you have such a good relationship." He said, "The relationship between the two of you has promoted world peace and in some ways put the earth on the best possible future. As the guardian of the earth, I really want to Thank you, Celia. But, there's only one thing I can't talk to Clark about."

"What?" Celia asked perfunctorily.

"You smoothed out Superman's life and changed his future predicament. But what about your own?" Strange said, "Your life hasn't been smoothed out yet."

"What dilemma can I have to change?" Celia said casually.

"You don't, but your sister does." Strange said, "About Gamora, do you want to talk to me privately first, or go through Clark first?"

Celia turned her head abruptly.

Her eyes changed.

Just now she was a young girl in a loose mood, but at this moment, in the semi-dark room, her pair of light blue eyes emitted a terrifying cold light.

Strange already smiled knowingly.

"Please, Celia," he said. "I know there's an emergency exit here, and the grocery store inside is very quiet."

If the special surveillance around the world hadn't been withdrawn in half, and the machine had fought against Jarvis again, otherwise, in the past, they would have been known by Chaoying the moment they came out.

Celia followed Strange out of the darkness along the path. Sure enough, the goal was a simple white corridor with some debris on the ground. Strange pushed open one of the wooden doors.Behind the door is a small grocery room. Strange's hands are in seals, and the kaleidoscopic mirror reflects and surrounds the two of them, and time and space become infinitely larger.

Even though she is concerned about Gamora, Celia is still very surprised. As a mage, she is of course interested in all kinds of weird spells, especially this man also won the Ebony Maw, which shows his unfathomable strength. Already in the upper layer of the universe.

"What do you want to tell me?" Celia looked at Strange.

Strange was silent for a while.

"Hearing is believing, seeing is believing. No matter how much you say, it's better to let you see it with your own eyes." Strange said.

He pressed his fingers together in front of him, and the necklace hanging around the man's neck seemed to slowly open his eyes, revealing a green light.

"Time gem?" Celia raised her eyebrows.

"Yes," said Doctor Strange, "I want to show you the most likely world. Would you like to?"

Celia nodded, and Doctor Strange continued to seal, and the green light continued to expand, covering the entire world.

In the dazzling green light, Strange pointed at Helia's forehead, suddenly—as if being pushed out by Quicksilver and The Flash in an instant, Helia's body felt a kind of lack of oxygen. feel.Her body slowly leaned back, her originally light blue eyes emitted a different kind of light, and her soul was thrown out in one fell swoop.

With a brief sense of weightlessness in the air, Xilia's soul retreated quickly.Everything in the world is receding rapidly in seconds, Xilia's soul trembled like she was riding a train, and then she suddenly stopped without warning.

Overcast skies are raining.

Celia stood on the wet grass.

Celia tilted her head slightly in doubt. The next second, the grass disappeared, and she started to move forward frantically again. The evolution of the universe pushed her back, allowing her to cross the long river of time and history.

She stopped again, standing on the edge of a cliff, the sky above her was dark.It smells of eternal decay and withered life.

Celia stood there in a daze, and for a moment, she didn't even know who she was.On the zenith she saw three distant stars twinkling next to each other.

Immediately after she lowered her head, she saw a black robe leading two familiar faces approaching here step by step.Celia's body almost froze, she saw Gamora and Thanos walking side by side, but how is it possible?She obviously sent Gamora away.

The three came to the edge of the cliff, and they regarded Celia as air, as if she didn't exist at all.

Thanos and Gamora both look serious, but they're both thinking different things.

"How do I get the soul gem?" Thanos said in a deep voice.

"The answer to the mystery lies at the bottom of the cliff." The man in black robe and red face said calmly, "Only by sacrificing the person you love most and exchanging equal value can you get the soul gem."

Hearing this, Thanos, Gamora, and Celia were all stunned.

Gamora was the first to react, and the woman was relieved at once.Her lips moved slightly, eventually turning from a chuckle to a laugh.But Thanos and Celia were still in a daze.

"You are finished, Thanos, this is your retribution!" Gamora said cheerfully, "You executioner, you demon—this is your retribution, the soul stone is under your feet, but you can't get it He... who made you have no favorite person at all, you cold-blooded devil!"

Silia was struck by lightning, she raised her head numbly, and when Thanos was crying, she stared blankly at Gamora.

"Are you crying?" Gamora couldn't believe it.

"No, he's not crying for him," said Red Skull in a low voice. "He's grieving the loss of the one he loved the most."

Gamora froze.She raised her head in disbelief, and Thanos was watching her with sadness, sadness, and even remorse.Thanos had never shown such a sad expression before, but now he frowned slightly, and as he watched Gamora, tears fell again.

"I'm sorry, little one," he said softly.

"No, it's impossible... how could you love me?" Gamora murmured, "This is not love."

Celia was standing nearby, she watched Gamora curse in disbelief, and asked Thanos that he should love herself the most.She went from anger to panic, she was terrified for the whole universe, she wanted to commit suicide but failed, then Thanos' powerful big hand grabbed her green wrist, and walked firmly towards the edge of the cliff without looking back.Gamora started to get scared for herself, she yelled—

She was thrown off a cliff.

Silia was standing beside Thanos, she was on the edge of the cliff, staring at Gamora's body dumbly, until everything disappeared, until Thanos got up in the lake and got the soul gem.

The illusion disappeared, and Strange stood opposite her.He stared at the alien girl in front of him who was still bowing his head, and he didn't relax for a moment.Because in some ways, she is more dangerous than Superman.

"Why are you showing me these?" Celia asked softly.

"Parents and lovers are Superman's inner demons, then Gamora is your inner demon." Strange said in a deep voice, "If you are not prepared, things will get worse."

Celia raised her head and looked at Strange.Her gaze was cold, with a kind of calm sternness.

"Why tell me now, and not sooner or later?" she said. "Would you tell the other heroes about all their sufferings? I can't see it. Why are you telling me this?"

Doctor Strange was silent for a moment.

"Because you are special, Xilia. Your direction is enough to dominate a universe." He said slowly, "This world has been advancing on a tightrope, and if you miss one step, it will be an abyss. You are so special, so I Had to break the rules and tell you something."

"I don't understand what's so special about me." Celia stared at Doctor Strange. "You must know something, but you didn't tell me everything."

Strange sighed softly.

"Some people's life has already set the direction and future when they were born." He said sincerely, "but you are different, Xi Liya. You have the ability to change everything. You changed the destiny of this earth. Originally Superman's congregation is deserted, and in five years he will rule the earth with high intensity and fight with all heroes. But you changed this bad future, but you also need to change your own. I can't reveal too much, but I hope you understand, I'm on your side and I'm trying to lead everyone to a better future."

"You are just an ordinary human with a lifespan of only a hundred years. Why do you feel that you have such great abilities?" Shelia asked, "Superman went to extremes step by step for the benefit of mankind. You and him The only difference is that you know the future, but what if your current behavior is one of the behaviors that will make the future more extreme? What is the difference between the two of you?"

Strange wasn't angry. On the contrary, the corner of the mage's mouth twitched, and he looked at Celia peacefully.

"You're right, Celia. My abilities are limited." He said slowly, "So I can only do my best. Regardless, I know how important Gamora is to you. No matter what you think, I will tell you this matter, and the rest is up to you to decide."

The mirrored space disappeared along with Strange, and the eerie sound effects and exaggerated screams of the haunted house filled her eardrums again.Xilia's strength and aggression seemed to have disappeared with the man's departure. In fact, her mind was blank just now. She didn't know what she refuted, but she seemed to have to grasp something to make herself feel at ease. a little.

Celia sat down slowly in an actor's chair, her lips pale.

"Celia—Celia?"

Everyone just found out that she was missing, and they came here after looking for it. Peter poked his head outside the door. He was a little worried when he saw Xilia's complexion.

"You won't be scared, Celia? Would you like to take a break?" Peter said. "I think you need some water."

Others show up, and Wanda blows the bubblegum, and she puts her hand on top of Peter's head.

"I think she's tired, Peter," Wanda said. "She doesn't need water, she needs Superman."

……

After a full day of meetings, when Clark went to pick up Celia back to the North Pole, it was obvious that there was something wrong with Celia.

She said goodbye to the others happily, greeted him, and smiled at him, and that was the problem—as the two of them got to know each other better, Celia seldom gave such a perfect smile.Normally, if she is happy, she should be talking to him non-stop now about what happened during the day.If she's upset, then she certainly won't hide herself.If she was tired, it was normal for her to ignore him.

And now, she was giving short, planned answers to his every question, complete with a cute smile, which in itself meant she must be hiding something.

"What's wrong with you?" Superman frowned. "You look very bad."

Celia's radiance and smile disappeared instantly.She was like a flower that withered after blooming, leaning pale and tired in his arms.He had never seen her look so world-weary.

"When I get home, I have something to discuss with you, Carl." Celia said wearily.She closed her eyes, and pinched the bridge of her nose with her fingers, as if it would relax a little.

Celia's reaction gave Superman a bad premonition. After the two returned to the Fortress of Solitude, Celia still kept the habit of cleaning herself and had dinner before she was willing to chat with him.

She told Clark the whole thing without reservation.Sure enough, his bad premonition was true.After listening, Superman almost had the urge to fly to question Doctor Strange right now—they had survived for a few days, why did Strange insist on saying it at this time, and couldn't wait for them to leave Earth?

However, things have already happened, and the most important thing now is the person in front of him.Xilia spoke slowly and calmly, but she was not an ordinary girl, so it was impossible to judge her current situation from her performance.

Clark has always valued his family and lost his family, so he understands Celia's feelings very well.Besides... Gamora is definitely more than just a foster sister to Shelia.Celia was brought up by Thanos so cruelly trained, but judging from her previous statement, Celia not only has no heart to fight against Thanos, but on the contrary, she is a firm believer in his goals. He is very respectful, and even willing to leave the chance of being captured and killed to save him.

And for the sake of the influence of the general environment, Celia, who was the follower of Thanos and had never been stained with blood, killed another foster brother for Gamora, which is enough to show that Kamora Pull the importance to her now.

In fact, it is also true. Gamora is both a teacher and a friend to Celia. Gamora is like a sister and a mother. Without her, Celia would not be able to maintain a kind of love in that environment. It is considered to be in a clean state.

On one side is the respectful father and followers, and on the other is Gamora, Superman is so worried that his brows are almost wrinkled into a zigzag.

"Silia, are you... are you okay?"

"I'm fine." Celia said quietly.

Clark tentatively put his arms around her shoulders.

"...you don't want to leave Earth right now?" he asked tentatively.

Celia looked up, and she sighed.

"I won't," she said, "I'll wait for you."

Superman breathed a sigh of relief.

"Okay, after I finish dealing with the affairs on Earth, we can go find Gamora together, or find your father."

"No, Carl." Shelia said, "You can accompany me, but this matter must be settled by myself. It is normal for us people to have such grievances, but no matter what we do, we should do it ourselves and let others It didn’t feel right to meddle.”

As she spoke, she fell silent.

After a while, Celia said slowly, "Everything about you is over, now it's my turn... Maybe it's time to start my new chapter."

"What are you trying to do?" Superman asked suspiciously.

Celia looked up at Superman, her eyes still bright, clean, and clear.

Then she spoke quietly,

"I'm going to kill Thanos to avoid future troubles."
