The Witcher: The Journey to Transcendence from Marvel.

Chapter 407

"Maybe this will change your mind."

Master Ancient One looked calm as she slowly opened her right hand. A green crystal emitting a mysterious glow slowly floated out from her palm as if being pulled by an invisible hand and flew towards Weiss.

"This is the crystallization of my profound understanding of the laws of time."

Ancient One's voice was low and gentle.

Weiss's originally calm eyes suddenly lit up.

As the Supreme Sorcerer, Ancient One has studied it for many years. The knowledge contained in this crystal is undoubtedly a gift beyond imagination, enough to attract countless powerful people.

However, Weiss was not a rookie after all. After a moment of surprise, suspicion quickly crept onto his face.

He stared at Gu Yi closely, his eyes like two sharp daggers, as if he wanted to see through Gu Yi's thoughts, trying to find even the slightest flaw in her expression and eyes.

Behind the benefits that come easily, there are often unknown traps. Perhaps this seemingly tempting gift is actually a deadly bomb wrapped in sweet sugar.

"Don't worry, what I ask for is very simple. I just need you to lend a hand when Strange is in the most difficult time."

Ancient One seemed to see through Weiss's thoughts. He raised his eyes slightly and looked at Weiss frankly. His eyes were clear and sincere, without any evasion.

"No other requests."

She emphasized her tone and added another sentence to show her sincerity.

"Really do not have?"

Weiss narrowed his eyes slightly, took a step forward, and stared at Ancient One's eyes, trying to catch any unusual look that might flash by.

But Ancient One remained calm, his face peaceful, his eyes showing no sign of lying. He just stood there quietly, allowing Weiss to examine him.

After pondering for a long time, Weiss weighed the pros and cons in his mind, and finally nodded slowly and agreed: "I will only take action once."

The corners of Gu Yi's mouth rose slightly, revealing a faint smile. That smile seemed to contain endless profound meaning, and he said softly: "That's enough."

"Well, goodbye." Weiss's figure flashed and instantly turned into a stream of light, disappearing on the spot, leaving only a faint afterimage.

The Marvel world is still too complex, and I've gotten a little carried away lately.

As Weiss traveled through the void at high speed, this thought emerged in his mind.

Perhaps without his knowledge, multiverse-level bosses have already quietly turned their attention to him.

This sudden thought startled Weiss, as if a bucket of cold water was poured over his head, instantly waking him up from his previous complacency.

What's going on? Why am I feeling uneasy?

Weiss thought to himself that with his current strength, his mind had long been cultivated to be as firm as a rock. Ordinary disturbances couldn't shake his mind at all, let alone let his thoughts wander. But at this moment, this inexplicable feeling of panic followed him like a shadow, lingering.

This is a warning! A light suddenly flashed through Weiss's mind.

This was his instinct sending him the strongest warning. At this critical moment, he didn't hesitate at all, making a decisive move and activating the control panel.

The next moment, Weiss was already in the pirate world. "Hey~ That interesting little guy is gone."

A mysterious and ethereal voice sounded quietly in the void, as if it came from an endless abyss, and as if it had traveled through endless time and space.

The one who spoke was "Death", the source, creator and manipulator of all life souls in the multiverse. He represents the concrete manifestation of the end of all life in the multiverse and is one of the five famous creation gods in the Marvel Universe.

He stared quietly at the place where Weiss had just left. His gaze seemed to be able to penetrate layers of space and dimensions. Even someone as powerful as Ancient One did not notice His presence.

At this moment, Weiss in the pirate world was clutching his pounding heart, beads of sweat rolling down his forehead. His face was slightly pale, and he muttered to himself, "That was a close call."

Although he had no idea who was watching him from behind, Weiss trusted his intuition, which was like an innate instinct that never went wrong at critical moments.

This was the first time he felt the breath of death so vividly. The icy, bone-chilling chill seemed to have frozen his soul.

"Whoo~"

Weiss took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, trying to calm his wildly beating and chaotic heart through deep breathing.

"I can't go back to Marvel for now. Who knows if that big boss is still watching me."

Weiss muttered to himself with a hint of fear and caution.

The oppressive feeling brought by the mysterious and powerful existence made him feel frightened. If he rashly returned to the Marvel world before he was completely sure, he would undoubtedly walk into a trap. He didn't want to joke with his life.

In that case, I might as well just stay in the pirate world.

It is a good opportunity to take advantage of this time to comprehend the crystallization of the law of time given by Ancient One.

This is a rare opportunity. If he can thoroughly comprehend the secrets, his strength will surely be improved to a higher level, and he will be more confident when facing unknown dangers in the future.

Today's pirate world has become divided into four parts, and the chaos is far beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

In order to compete for hegemony and resources, fierce wars break out almost every day among these four forces, and the smoke of gunpowder fills the various sea areas for a long time.

Unlike the previous era of great pirates, today's wars are no longer small-scale conflicts between individual pirate groups, but have been upgraded to large-scale wars between countries, and their brutality is staggering.

In this chaotic world of war, countless innocent people suffered tragically, their homes were ruthlessly destroyed, and they were forced to leave their homes, become displaced, and flee everywhere just to find a place to settle down.

And Drosrosa and Wano Country became the last pure land in this chaos.

As a result, a large number of refugees flocked to these two places like a tide, and in a short period of time, the population of the two places doubled.

This sudden population explosion caused a lot of headaches for Luo and Violet, who were responsible for managing local affairs.

They are busy all day long, having to resettle these refugees, coordinate resources from all parties, maintain local law and order, and ensure that the basic living needs of the people are met.

Fortunately, there was one key factor that prevented the situation from getting out of control, and that was Wes's deterrence.

His immense power instilled fear in all factions. Knowing he was in charge of both Drosrosa and Wano Country, no one dared to cause trouble, thus providing the strongest guarantee for stability in both regions.
