The Witcher: The Journey to Transcendence from Marvel.

Chapter 460 Reality, Time

His hands kept changing into complex and gorgeous hand seals, and brilliant magical lights burst out from his hands.

The light of magic flickered in the dark deep sea, intertwining with the huge bodies of the sea monsters.

The sea monsters opened their bloody mouths, their sharp fangs flashing coldly, and pounced towards Strange.

Their thick tentacles tried to wrap Strange tightly around them.

However, Strange was agile and could move freely between the attacks of the sea monsters.

He skillfully used magic, sometimes forming a solid magic shield to withstand the fierce attacks of the sea monsters;
Sometimes it releases powerful magical energy, causing heavy blows to the sea monsters.

A few minutes later, a dazzling light instantly illuminated the entire deep sea, as if the sun had exploded on the bottom of the sea.

Accompanied by a dull and loud roar.

Strange's body flew through the water rapidly, leaving a trail of white water behind him.

Finally, he flew out of the sea like a cannonball breaking through the water.

As soon as he emerged from the sea, Strange's chest heaved violently.

On the sea, the mountain-sized corpses of several sea monsters floated quietly. Under the rhythmic beating of the waves, their bodies swayed gently, as if they were performing a strange funeral dance.

The surrounding sea water had long been dyed red by their blood, and the strong smell of blood filled the air. The entire sea surface looked like a terrifying sea of blood, reflecting a strange and dazzling light under the sunlight.

"Gulu~Gulu~"

A dull and strange sound came from the deep sea, like the low groan of a sleeping giant beast.

The entire ocean, as if plunged into a blazing fire, began to boil violently. The surging waves reached tens of meters high, surging in all directions.

The bodies of the sea monsters gradually dissolved in the boiling sea water, and their originally clear outlines gradually blurred, turning into balls of thick liquid emitting a strange light.

These liquids quickly condensed and reshaped in chaos, eventually forming a horrifying monster.

It is three meters tall, with a huge octopus head and eight thick arms as hard as steel, shining with a cold luster in the sun.

The monster's blood-red eyes were like two burning flames, emitting endless murderous intent, and locked onto Strange.

Just as Strange was looking at the monster vigilantly, its figure suddenly disappeared, as if it had merged into the air.

Strange was startled. Drawing on his years of combat experience, he reacted quickly. However, before he could cast any spell, the monster appeared before him like a ghost. With a deafening roar, the monster suddenly punched out.

The air was instantly compressed by this punch, making a sharp explosion and forming a circle of air waves visible to the naked eye.

Strange hurriedly put up a magic shield to try to block the fatal blow.

But in the face of the monster's terrifying power, the magic shield collapsed in an instant like fragile glass, turning into countless flickering points of light and dissipating in the air.

Immediately afterwards, the monster threw another swift punch, and Strange was unable to dodge it. At the critical moment, his magic cloak quickly wrapped around the monster's arm.

However, the octopus monster has eight arms, so this obstacle is insignificant to it.

Strange acted decisively, taking off his cloak without hesitation and taking advantage of the brief gap when the monster's arm was entangled to escape at high speed. In the process of escaping, he danced his hands quickly, muttered something, and instantly created countless clones.

These clones surrounded the octopus monster like phantoms, and each clone used the "Scarlet Chain".

I saw scarlet rays of light shooting out from the clone's hands, like a nimble python, quickly wrapping around the octopus monster's body and locking it.

At the same time, Strange's real body did not stop moving. He knew very well that the octopus monster in front of him was just one of the troubles created by Wes using the Reality Stone, and the real threat was Wes himself.

So, while commanding his clone to restrain the octopus monster, he concentrated his mind and kept searching for Wes's whereabouts, trying to find his hiding place and solve the crisis from the root.

"Wes, we need to talk."

Strange tried his best to dodge the octopus monster's crazy attacks while shouting at the top of his lungs.

His voice echoed over the rough sea, but the roar of the waves and the roar of the octopus monster quickly drowned out his words, and he received no response.

Weiss was currently immersed in the unparalleled power bestowed by the Reality Gem, which emitted a strange and fiery light, blending closely with his spirit.

Since Strange chose to attack him first, he had already made up his mind and would never show mercy.

The moment his spirit completely merged into the Reality Gem, he was enveloped by an unprecedented wonderful feeling, as if he had established a direct connection with the basic rules of the entire universe, and deeply felt a supreme status almost like that of the creator.

Under the influence of this power, he clearly realized that with just a thought, he could change the essential attributes of all things in the world at will and reshape the entire world. The shock and temptation brought by this power made him completely addicted to it.

A strong desire for control surged in Weiss's heart, and his thoughts were like a stone thrown into a calm lake.
These fluctuations spread rapidly into the surrounding space with the Reality Gem as the center.

In the blink of an eye, a giant octopus monster appeared out of nowhere without any warning.

Then, the second one, the third one... In just a few seconds, hundreds of octopus monsters densely covered the entire sea surface.

Although Strange's clone fought hard, with the magic light in his hands flashing continuously, trying to withstand the overwhelming attack, it collapsed instantly in front of the octopus monster that was surging like a tide, and turned into countless flickering lights and shadows that dissipated in the air.

Strange was alone, being stared at by hundreds of octopus monsters. Every murderous look in their eyes was like a materialized sharp blade, piercing his spine and sending chills down his spine.

The situation at this moment has reached a critical moment of life and death, but he did not hesitate at all.

At this critical moment, he quickly opened the Eye of Agamotto.

In an instant, a mysterious and dazzling light burst out from it, and that light contained the mystery of time, ancient and profound.

He concentrated his mind, controlled the Time Stone, and built a time barrier emitting a deep blue light with himself as the center.

This time barrier is like an indestructible barrier, isolating Strange from the outside world.

Within this barrier, the rules of time are redefined, the flow rate becomes extremely slow, and everything seems to be pressed in slow motion.

Outside the barrier, the octopus monsters continued their frantic attacks. They continuously rammed the time barrier, their tentacles colliding with it and creating a dull sound, sending up strange ripples. But no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't cross this defense line constructed by time.

No matter how many octopus monsters there are or how powerful they are, they seem so powerless in the face of the rules of the Time Stone.
