[Comprehensive] The Last Assassin

Time is the most powerful force in the world. There is no enemy it cannot destroy, and there is no death it cannot bring.

It is rumored that Dormammu, the god of darkness in another dimension, is called the "Eternal One" because there is no time in the dark dimension he lives in - only eternal silence and darkness.

The black-haired assassin clutched his bloody right shoulder, staring dumbfounded at the mysterious mage sitting in the armchair.The mage looked at her condescendingly, and raised the corner of his mouth: "It looks like you need help."

However, before he stretched out his hand, Steve Rogers first pulled up his "niece" who needed to take the responsibility of "care", pulled her collar slightly to check the depth of the wound, and frowned: "I Take you to the hospital."

Before Shen Qiong could answer, the mysterious mage stopped Captain America first.His movements did not change, and there was even a mocking smile on the corner of his mouth, and he said slowly: "For your sake, I advise you to say 'it's best not to'."

He stretched out his fingertips and pointed to Shen Qiong's wound: "Her body structure is different from usual."

Steve frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"

The mage looked at Tony, who was not surprised, with a half-smile, and said meaningfully: "Mr. Stark doesn't seem to be surprised."

"Wow, I'm surprised, but you can't see it." Tony said blankly, "Say something quickly, if you have nothing to say, I'll take her away."

The mage was obviously very dissatisfied with Tony Stark's attitude. He tapped his fingers on the armrest, and seemed to want to give the famous Avenger a little color right away, but he finally controlled himself and clenched Clenched his fist and explained to Captain America who had been waiting for his answer: "As I said, she is a time traveler."

"Time is running away from her."

The most secret thing in her heart was suddenly revealed, and Shen Qiong's face turned pale for a moment. Fortunately, she was pale due to blood loss, and this paleness did not attract anyone's attention—except for Dick who was brought along with her. .

Dick stared at Shen Qiong, but asked the mage, "What do you mean?"

"Literally." The wizard crossed his hands. "Dick Grayson, the robin of the Batman, I think those awards you have won at least prove that you have the most basic understanding?"

"Don't ask me how I know this, Karma Taj's intelligence network is not inferior to the watchtower your father built in space." He shrugged, "It's just that we don't use satellites, we use other... Something that science can hardly explain."

"Doctor Strange, you are the one who asked us to come here and asked us to help you bring back my niece." Steve Rogers seemed to be in an unwavering mood. "It is you who need to explain, not us."

"Even if you think it's unnecessary, please explain."

Doctor Strange, who was taunted and mocked, looked a little upset, but he decided to give Steve Rogers a little face. After all, he and Tony Stark had just finished a fight and defended his privacy that he didn't need the other party to defend. And freedom - out of this, he decided to grant the other party's request.

Doctor Strange stood up, stretched out his hand and pulled Shen Qiong's collar to check the wound. He was also pierced with blood red eyes. Out of professional habits, he had to save someone before explaining.

Wearing a bright red cloak, in Shen Qiong's eyes, she looks like a circus performer, and the mysterious man named Doctor Strange by Captain America has confirmed the condition of her wound.

The doctor's fingers touched the blade, and Shen Qiong shrank her shoulders subconsciously.

Doctor Strange noticed Shen Qiong's uneasiness, and comforted him: "It hurts a little at first, bear with it."

As soon as he finished speaking, the cloak that Shen Qiong thought was a decoration suddenly raised a corner, and gently wiped the dust that fell from the tip of her nose.Shen Qiong was startled, this cloak even took the opportunity to rub her cheek!

"Don't make trouble!"

Before the young assassin had time to express his feeling of being taken lightly by a cloak, Mr. Strange had already issued a stern order to his cloak.I don't know if it was an illusion, but Shen Qiong actually felt that the horns of this cloak were wronged!

...not an illusion, it really has its horns rolled up.

Staring at the red cloak worn by the mage, Shen Qiong couldn't help asking: "Master, I think—"

"It's not a mage, it's Doctor Strange!"

The doctor in mage clothes retorted habitually, and at the same time pulled out the blade on her right shoulder!Before Shen Qiong cried out in pain, the doctor had finished his spell.He first opened his hands and made a very strange gesture, quickly and accurately recited a series of spells, and then the mysterious pendant hanging on his chest suddenly opened!Just like what is shown in fantasy movies, mantras written in Sanskrit appeared on the mage's wrist, and the palm of his hand held the prototype magic circle.He pointed the magic circle at Shen Qiong's injured right shoulder, and then turned back slightly like Shen Qiong did to himself countless times——

The bloodstains quickly faded from her shoulders like smoke!The wound healed and the blood flowed back. In less than three seconds, her right shoulder was as clean as new. Not to mention a wound, there was not even a trace of injury!

"The eye of Agamotto, the power of time."

After successfully treating Shen Qiong's wound, the doctor even joked, "It's your 'mother'."

Shen Qiong: "???"

Shen Qiong frowned: "I'm sorry Master——"

"It's a doctor!"

"Okay, sorry doctor." Shen Qiong said coldly, "I didn't jump out of a stone, let alone such a small stone."

"Of course you are an ordinary person who was naturally conceived and born by human beings." The doctor of medicine withdrew his magic and said bluntly, "But your ability is not."

"I've seen your file. You have been in the Xavier Gifted School. It seems that they attribute your ability to 'mutation'?" Dr. Strange shrugged and said bluntly, "It's really simple Naive judgement."

Shen Qiong frowned: "How do you know, even Dick—"

"Hey, what is 'Even Dick'?" Dick was dissatisfied, "I trust my companions, otherwise how could you hide your identity from Tim and Barbara!"

Shen Qiong raised her eyebrows when she heard the words: "Oh, really? Then what's my name?"

Dick: "..."

Shen Qiong's face was still a little pale, but she showed her first smile since seeing the angel: "I heard the joke from Peter, so you really don't know?"

"Hahahahaha, don't think about it, I won't tell you!"

Dick: "..."

"Wait, you have other abilities?" Steve raised his hand to interrupt the quarrel between the two kids, he looked unbelievable, "And you never told me?"

Shen Qiong shut her mouth.

Seeing her acquiescing, Steve felt even more unbelievable: "Joan, I'm your father's comrade-in-arms, I thought I could gain your trust?"

"Please go back to the family ethics drama!" Doctor Strange snapped his fingers, the metal bracket that Shen Qiong was leaning on actually folded himself into a simple seat, he raised his hand to Shen Qiong and Dick consciously: "Please sit down, Tea or coffee, or something?"

"No thanks."

"I can also provide beer. The German stout I served for Raytheon last time he seemed to like it."

Tony raised his eyebrows when he heard the words: "Do you have wine here? Then please give me a glass of whiskey, with ice, thank you."

"Docter Strange!" Steve Rogers couldn't help raising his voice, "Please get to the point, thank you!"

The doctor who was ordered glanced at the corner of his mouth and clapped his hands. A whiskey with ice appeared strangely in the glass next to Tony. He sighed and commented: "It's boring."

Captain America was unmoved: "This is related to the health of my loved ones."

Hearing the adjectives from Steve Rogers, Shen Qiong felt more and more guilty.

She was hiding something from Steve Rogers, but it was much more than that.If only he knew his real age, and his real relationship to Warren Worthington and Sean Worthington...

Shen Qiong didn't dare to think about it.

All relevant personnel gathered together, Doctor Strange glanced around, his eyes dimmed, and finally got to the point.

"This world is far bigger than we imagined. The existence of Thor I think is enough to prove that there are many things in this world that science cannot explain for the time being. The lady beside you is one of them."

"If it wasn't for the 'miracle of time' that befell her, she would have been dead for almost 19 years."

"She's 'alive' now because time has given her a miracle."

"The Miracle of Backtracking."

Doctor Strange stood up: "About 20 years ago, the temple was attacked and the Eye of Agamotto was stolen. It took the temple more than a year to track down the eye of Agamotto. the whereabouts of the eye, and redeemed it from a youth."

"It's just that the redeemed Eye of Agomotto is incomplete, and part of it is missing." Strange stopped Steve from asking, "Don't ask me how I know, the history and knowledge of the Temple are shared , as long as I want, I can look up the information."

"This event was considered a major event back then. My mentor, Mage Gu Yi, recorded it completely, especially the missing part of the Eye of Agamotto."

Shen Qiong's breathing stagnated for a moment.

Doctor Strange smiled: "Yes, as you guessed. The missing part is the 'Piece of Eden' taken away by the Templars. And your power comes from this lost part. part of the power."

"This is the fundamental reason why you seem to have transcended time, but you can only pause or go back. You can neither see the future nor travel in time."

"You are the strength gained from the incomplete, and incompleteness is a matter of course."

Shen Qiong's clenched fingers gradually loosened: "But I still suffered side effects."

"It's difficult for ordinary people to control mana." Strange put away his arrogant attitude, and said calmly, "It's like a computer will malfunction when it loads overloaded data."

Tony Stark has been seldom talking since he met Strange. At this time, he put down his wine glass impatiently, raised his eyes and said: "No one wants to hear your magic theory, Stu Trange."

"I just want to know what the solution is."

Doctor Strange straightened up, turned his gaze to Tony, and said indifferently, "No."

Tony frowned: "Don't you have the Eye of Agamotto? Since the subject is in your hands, why can't you solve it? Don't tell me it's because of personal grievances, so there is no way."

"I'm a doctor, and saving people is my first principle." Strange said slowly, "But time is the most mysterious force in this world, and even the Ancient One has never fully understood its mysteries."

"I do have the Eye of Agamotto, but it is another part that gives her power." Strange said, "In fact, she is already saving herself."

"You've been looking for that 'Piece of Eden', haven't you? You're here because of it, and you're fighting the Templars."

"Your intuition is right. If you can find the missing part of the Eye of Agamotto, maybe I can help you get out of the reverse time."

Shen Qiong asked calmly: "If you can't find it?"

Strange was silent for a moment, and then said honestly: "When the time on your body stops completely, it will start to reverse, and you will become younger and younger until you become an atom and disappear completely."

Shen Qiong nodded, indicating that she understood.

When Strange was still a doctor, he was not good at comforting patients.Facing Shen Qiong's current dangerous state, he would do nothing but issue a critical illness notice.But his cloak didn't seem to think so.

The bright red cloak seemed extremely unable to bear to see the sad expression on Shen Qiong's face, it lightly took off from Dr. Strange's body, came to Shen Qiong's side lightly, rubbed the girl's cheek, Then gently and lightly covered her shoulders.The erected collar almost covered most of Shen Qiong's face, which also enabled it to better express intimacy.

Shen Qiong: "..."

She stretched out a finger and peeled off the collar stuck to her face, and the collar curled around her finger naturally.

Shen Qiong paused for a moment, then raised her head and asked, "Strange...doctor?"

"Don't ask me, I can't do anything with it." Doctor Strange said expressionlessly.

At this moment of being abandoned, he remembered the evaluation of the magic floating cloak by the mage Modu when he chose it as his magic weapon.

— "He seems to like you, which is rare. After all, this cloak is very sweet."

Very carefree.

Strange looked indifferently at the magic floating cloak who wished to go home with Shen Qiong, and his evaluation was absolutely correct.
