The Death Knell

"She's in bad condition."

Hamil approached Liana. The poor little girl was still fixed in the wall by the tentacles. At this time, she had lost response to everything in the outside world. She just kept screaming and spurting a lot of blood from her mouth from time to time.

"How long can you control it, Belasco?"

Su Ming pulled out his weapon and dug the little girl out from the tentacles on the wall, but he could only take her out of the cell, but could not lay her down. She might choke to death on her own blood.

Ciri didn't like it very much. In the maze-like dark corridor outside the cell, she would encounter attacks from various tentacled monsters from time to time.

This world had only revealed its true face to her today. Under the bright and calm surface, there were countless secrets and darkness far beyond her imagination.

She walked at the front to open the way, while Su Ming walked in the middle holding the mysterious guest, and Hamil came from the back. He also pulled out a weapon from his sleeve, which is the standard equipment of the Karma Taj mages, like a short stick. 'Scepter of the Living Tribunal'.

"No magic, ever."

After hearing Deathstroke's inquiry, Master Hamil still answered calmly. Belasco would definitely not be able to get out before his confused mind recalled how to use magic.

Because in the process of free fall, there was no way to hold a ceremony to ask the ancient gods for help. The reckless man who could not fly was thrown into the dimensional space connected end to end. He had no other choice but to keep falling.

But the little girl held by Deathstroke had three-fifths of her body, especially her internal organs, converted into demonic flesh. The power of the blood stone was so powerful that this transformation process was almost irreversible.

If she continues like this, she will complete the transformation in confusion and become a mindless monster like a beast.

Even removing the bloodstone won't work. Her current injuries are too serious and she will die immediately if she loses her ability to heal. Hamill is good at magic and Chinese medicine, but reversing demonization is not within his ability.

Normally, in this case, it would be time to ask the Ancient Master to use the Eye of Agamotto. By reversing the time of the little girl, she can naturally separate from the blood stone and restore her health.

But Deathstroke obviously won't do this, and Hamill won't give any advice. If the master asks, he will answer. If the master doesn't ask, he will have no attitude.

He is like a pine tree growing on the top of a mountain, standing firm no matter which direction the wind blows.

Su Ming naturally would not let Mysterio and Blood Stone separate.

When they arrived behind Belasco, the Hell Lord's ceremony had not even begun, and they were fully capable of saving the little girl before she was tortured.

But Su Ming had no intention of interfering. He grabbed Xili tightly and covered her mouth. When the demonic ritual was halfway through, he signaled Hamil to take action.

Because Mysterio is useful, Liana is useless.

No bloodstone, no half-demon girl, no use to him, no use to the plan or the story.

Su Ming never saves people for the sake of saving them. He only picks up the chess pieces he needs. Even if saving people is sometimes as simple as bending down, is there any point in picking up useless things?

What the past and future needed was Mysterio, then she had to be her.

Maybe it's a little cruel, after all, she is still a child, but if the world only has light and no darkness, then there is no need for anything to exist.

"What's the name of the magic that protects against dimensional polyps?" Su Ming asked Hamil. He knew there was this magic, but couldn't remember the specific name.

The function of magic is to isolate the invasion of creatures from other dimensions, not only the physical invasion and the mental invasion, but also any energy from other dimensions with chaotic attributes will be isolated.

The three major temples and Kama Taj used an enlarged version of this magic. With this, Ancient One was able to block all extradimensional demons.

The reason why the ancient gods can contact here is because this is the border of hell and does not exist on earth.

Hamil did not answer the question. He directly started chanting spells and casting spells to protect Liana in the dimension. Su Ming only heard that the spell started with the name of Emperor Weishan, and the following syllables were fast and long, and he did not understand them all. .

However, the magic effect was immediate. After isolating the influence of the blood stone on the brain, Liana finally passed out as she wished.

"time is limited."

Hamil said this because although she was cut off from the whispers of the ancient gods, as long as the bloodstone existed in her body, the transformation process was still going on.

"We have to find a way to wake her up. Her willpower is enough to maintain her humanity. Now she is the master of the blood stone in her body."

Su Ming and others walked out of the maze and placed the frivolous little girl on Belasco's throne. She was still vomiting blood in a coma, and the blood dyed the ground in front of the throne red.

Red flowers bloomed on the black stone ground, and the strong contrasting colors made everything look particularly dazzling.

Hamil immediately began to cast spells, and at the same time he took out silver needles and inserted them into several acupuncture points.

But it had little effect. Liana frowned and a lot of cold sweat poured down her forehead, but she did not wake up.

Su Ming could recognize that these acupuncture points would cause strong pain, but Liana's soul and body seemed to be disconnected, and she did not feel much pain.

"no."

Hamil began to think of a solution again, but he was not familiar with dark magic, let alone torturing magic. After thinking about it, he only had Seratok Red Belt.

Su Ming thought for a short moment and immediately gave Xili the task.

"Go to Geralt and ask for a Maribor Forest potion."

Shirley sighed. Everything that happened here was too dark, especially the little girl's experience that reminded her of her own past.

Slade can be frighteningly cold at times.

She pursed her lips and looked at the black and yellow mask.

"Maribor Forest is a powerful stimulant used by witchers. It will cause adrenaline to surge. Even if I drink it, I may die."

"She has a blood stone and can't die. Stimulants might wake her up. We have to try."

Ciri lingered around the throne, looking at Liana's little face, refusing to activate her ability to find Geralt, and this was wasting time.

Su Ming tried to seduce her with benefits, such as the luxurious interior of a new car. After all, she and Geralt were both special mercenaries and could lure her with benefits.

But at this moment, a strange old voice sounded in the hall. The voice was full of the power to calm people's hearts, as if it was a warm wind that smoothed the waves here.

"Let me do it. I will never forget the taste of the potion from another world."

At the bottom of the steps of the throne, a large group of people appeared like bubbles. The most conspicuous leader was the bald man sitting in a wheelchair. At this time, he had pressed his index and middle fingers on his temples.

However, the X-Men he brought with him were not very friendly. Several of them looked at Su Ming and the others with vigilant eyes, as if they regarded them as the culprits.

Su Ming just glanced at them and immediately recognized that they were the original X-Men, namely Cyclops, Storm and their group.

But there was no Wolverine in the crowd, so it seemed it wasn't time for the little naughty boy to enroll yet.

Professor hurt.

But soon, a smile appeared on his face, because Liana had been awakened and regained consciousness, but she was speechless due to the severe pain in her body.

"Kids, relax, this is Mr. Wilson, a friend of mine and Eric." He turned his wheelchair and spoke to the policemen behind him.

His voice was not loud, but it echoed in the dim palace for a long time.

The X-Men lowered their guard, and Hamill lowered his hand that was about to cast a spell.

But the professor's statement made everyone even more confused. Magneto's friend? Isn't that a terrorist? What happened to the Professor and Magneto? Why does he always say that he is the madman's friend?

Except for young Jean Gray who was thoughtful, everyone else looked confused. This was their first time traveling through time to carry out a mission, and they were still a little dizzy now.

Even if these thoughts are not spoken, Professor x can know what they are thinking, but this is not the place to explain.

"Charles, you are here after all."

Su Ming checked the condition of the mysterious guest, and it seemed that her recovery of consciousness allowed her to contain the blood stone.

This is talent. Mysterio's mutant ability is actually very average. Her real talent is that of a genius sorcerer. In the history of the comic book world, she mastered all the black magic in six years, including borrowing power from the ancient gods. Special skills, defeated Velasco with his own hands.

Then she spent another year learning white magic, and another year learning fighting skills and swordsmanship from a cat. With these skills, she firmly mastered the limbo of hell and became the supreme mage of this dimension.

There is a Supreme Mage in each dimension. The main dimension is currently the Ancient One, and the Supreme Mages in other dimensions have their own people.

Many of them used to be people from the main dimension, but before they could really get ahead in the main dimension, they went to other dimensions and chose places where the competition was not so fierce.

These dimensions are often small planes similar to hell. There are few intelligent creatures living in them, and more are weird existences like dimensional worms or dimensional hydras.

The professor pushed the wheelchair closer and activated his ability. Everyone except him and Su Ming seemed to be covered by invisible covers and lost their ability to respond to the outside world. It looked like time had been suspended. .

"Everything is exactly as you said, the time and place are exactly the same."

Su Ming touched Mysterio's head. What Charles said was interesting. Could it be that all this was arranged by his future self?

But he didn't reveal his flaws and just nodded: "Well done, Charles, now leave the secret guest to me. Did you come through Jean Gray?"

"The Phoenix Power is a terrifying power, but with my control, it can sometimes be very useful."

The professor smiled, as if he was really happy.

At present, it seems that Qin in the future knows about the existence of the Phoenix Force, but the last time he dealt with Apocalypse, Su Ming saw the Black Phoenix. It seems that something happened during this period, which brought the story back to the starting point.

But things involving mutants often involve a lot of time changes, which can't be guessed by just relying on reasoning now.

"Then, please activate your ability again and cut off a section of Hell's Border for ten years. I want to train a Supreme Mage here."
