Simultaneous traversal: All Abyss difficulty.

Chapter 353 Kamar-Taj, I'm coming for you!

Following Gu Yi's lead, the group arrived at the foot of a building that was neither on fire nor spewing water, and began negotiations.

On the left: Spider-Man, Iron Man, Bruce Banner, Thor, and Stephen Fang.

On the right, Captain America, missing his shield and an eyeball, Falcon, whose arms were severely broken and who could no longer straighten his back, Hawkeye, whose legs had been severed, Nick Fury, who was unharmed, and General Ross, Professor X, and others, all looked at everything with complicated expressions.

First and foremost, it's certain that even if War Machine were to be rescued, he would be in a vegetative state.

Black Panther and Ant-Man have gone missing on the battlefield, and it is now the agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. who are tasked with finding them.

The Fantastic Four were all wiped out, severely injured, especially the Thing, which was grazed by the Susanoo and hammered into the ground. It was only with the help of Abomination that it was able to be dug out of the ground.

Wolverine in X-Men has recovered completely, but Storm is in very bad shape. She was hit on the head by the steel coil and has been rushed to the hospital for treatment; her life is still uncertain.

Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch had already left the scene, but Crossbones and other Hydra agents remained behind.

With this civil war, in which the odds were stacked against them, over, everyone gained a new understanding that they hadn't had before.
Stephen Fang, that guy who has no sense of martial ethics.
Not to be messed with.

Meanwhile, on the rooftop of Kamar-Taj, the Ancient One was brewing tea, while the future Sorcerer Supreme, "Wang," stood awkwardly beside her, seemingly wanting to say something but holding back.

"What do you want to ask?" Gu Yi asked without looking up.

"That young man," Wang carefully chose his words, "his power system is completely inconsistent with existing laws."

“Power is inherently irrational.” Gu Yi handed him a cup of tea. “But you’re right, that child is indeed very special.”

She gazed at the setting sun outside the window, the steam from the tea blurring her face.

"So much so that even the Time Stone couldn't see his future."

Wang Wei nodded slightly, "Then..."

“Ignore it.” Gu Yi stood up. “Bring that surgeon to see me.”

On the street, Captain America, missing an eyeball, no longer had that righteous and awe-inspiring gaze.

He regrets more than anything else now.

Having experienced war, all he knew was how to launch a powerful attack on the enemy.

But now he understands that sometimes, the consequences of war are beyond his control.
“Speak up, don’t waste my time,” Stephen Fang said first.

Seeing Stephen Fang so arrogant, the heroes dared not speak out, fearing that without Captain Marvel, they would be beaten up by this freak.

When that thousand-meter-tall wooden Buddha appeared in the Manhattan area, satellites all over the world monitored the scene. The wooden Buddha could be vaguely seen from outer space. Just imagine, imagine, that these "savages" with guns, cannons, and even bows and arrows and spears would fight against this.

I don't have that kind of courage.
"Hey, Captain, are you satisfied now?" Stephen Fang looked at Captain America. "Why is it just one eye now? Are you cosplaying Nick Fury?"

Captain America clenched his fists, his head practically steaming with rage. Unfortunately, although he looked like the Human Torch, he wasn't, and couldn't breathe fire. He could only swallow his anger, offering no explanation that his eyeballs were damaged by the aftermath of the war.
Correct.

He wasn't even close to the front lines when he was already this badly injured.

Compared to the battle between Stephen Fong and Captain Marvel, Captain America's role in this war was less significant than that of a traffic cop directing traffic at the beginning.

This sense of disparity directly broke Captain America's resolve.

He no longer remembered any brotherhood.
Now all that remains is regret for the residents of Manhattan.
Professor X looked at Stephen Fang, unsure of what to say.

Originally, they could have recruited a powerful substitute teacher to guard X Academy.

As a result, Storm was beaten so badly that her survival was in question. She had already fallen out with the X-Men, and it was even possible that she would end up teaming up with Magneto, since Magneto was on Stephen Fong's side during this Civil War.
Thinking of this, Professor X cleared his throat. "Stephen," Stephen Fang interrupted Professor X abruptly, "What a strong wind! It's a Force 12!" The wheelchair-bound man completely forgot his carefully prepared words.
Thor gripped his hammer tightly. He was angry but didn't know who to blame, so he could only mutter, "I only took a short nap and you guys are going to tear down the central courtyard. You're really something else."

Having finally returned to human form from his "suit" form, Mr. Fantastic looked at Thor, who claimed to be a god and looked like a car mechanic, and wanted to retort, but he kept his mouth shut.

Finally, Nick Fury broke the deadlock: "The agreement has been revised so that Omega-level ability users must register with S.H.I.E.L.D., but their autonomy in action is retained."

He paused, then looked directly at Stephen Fang with his one eye. "On the condition that no further 'Manhattan incident-level' damage is caused."

Stephen Fang narrowed his eyes: "It sounds like they're giving my arrest warrant a makeover."

“This is the bottom line.” Nick Fury’s voice was low, but less forceful.

He had to admit that the battle just now had proven that they could not subdue Stephen Fang by force.

Tony Stark took a deep breath and stood next to Stephen Fang: "We accept the agreement, but on one condition."

"What are the conditions?" Fury frowned.

"S.H.I.E.L.D. must thoroughly investigate and eliminate the remaining forces of Hydra. Any act of harboring them will be considered a betrayal of the agreement."

Nick Fury paused for a moment, then finally nodded: "Okay."

Stephen Fang chuckled and turned to walk towards the edge of the ruins: "So be it."

His silhouette stretched long in the setting sun, seemingly blending into the broken city.

As everyone watched him leave, each person harbored their own thoughts.

The heroes on Captain America's side all looked like wilted eggplants, listless and unable to straighten their backs.
There were no winners in this negotiation; it was only a temporary truce.

But the real war may have only just begun.
It was midnight in the dormitory at Kamar-Taj.

The future Doctor Strange, who shares the same last name as Stephen, is about to peruse the books he stole from the library.

He needs to find a way to heal his hand, no matter what method he uses.

Just as Strange placed the book with the unknown black pattern on the table and was about to open it, a slight breeze stirred in the room, followed by a man's voice: "I advise you not to look at this thing right now."

"who!"

Strange was startled and turned around to see the face of Stephen Fang, whom he had been dreaming of!

"God! Ah! No! It's you?"

After witnessing the abilities of the Kamar-Taj sorcerers, Strange learned that the world was not as described in textbooks, and that Stephen Fang was not a god, but a person with special abilities or who had practiced some kind of magic.

Even so, he was still grateful for Stephen Fang's appearance, because it was because of him that Strange had the confidence and determination to find "God".

"Long time no see." Stephen Fang stretched and looked around. "Wonderful place, I've finally arrived."

"Yes! I've finally found this place!" Strange mistakenly thought Stephen Fang was a sorcerer from Kamar-Taj and assumed that the other party was congratulating him.

"Quietly return the book, don't read it now. And then, goodbye."

Stephen Fang said, walking straight to the door, pushing it open and leaving Strange looking completely bewildered.

Little did he know, Stephen Fang was using him as a teleportation point.
