Marvel: Awakening the Universe.

Chapter 372 Hawke: "I am what they use to fear" (Second Update!!)
There is such a wall on Earth.

It was built using a discontinuous construction method, and its core components consist of more than forty checkpoints equipped with electronic monitoring equipment and military sentries.

In the past, the people who needed protection were inside these walls.

But this wall is an exception.

He confined his so-called enemies within the walls.

Thousands of miles high in the sky.

Hawke's figure appeared, and he glanced up at the sky.

He could sense that at the very moment he appeared, numerous satellites were secretly watching him.

But it doesn’t matter.

"It's well known."

"If one person makes a mistake, the whole clan suffers the consequences."

"so--"

"A massive meteorite!"

Hawke closed his eyes, and as he touched his brow with his right finger, golden light surged in front of him. From within the surging golden light, a golden Saint Cloth with two sides stepped out, and then extended his right finger, pointing downwards.

Then--

As the meteorite fell from the sky, a powerful shockwave was generated the moment it hit the ground. Buildings were instantly vaporized and destroyed. At the same time, the countless particles formed by the meteorite's explosion turned into a violent storm that swept in all directions.

At that moment, the sky darkened.

At that moment, there was complete silence.

“Hill, Sharon just called. When she got there, Hawke had already left.”

"..."

Maria Hill, who was in the secret operations room of the Aegis Helicarrier, turned her gaze from the blank screen to Victoria Hand, who was shaking her head with a wry smile after hanging up, and sighed.

"This news is so regrettable."

"Yes."

Victoria Hand's expression revealed a hint of helplessness.

"It was just one minute late, what a pity."

"Pity."

Maria Hill sighed with a serious expression, then exchanged a glance with Victoria and shrugged: "Well, what's done is done. Let's eat first."

Victoria nodded upon hearing this.

"Makes sense."

"The satellite is off."

"Yes, Director."

The S.H.I.E.L.D. agent nodded and made a throat-slitting gesture to the two agents controlling the S.H.I.E.L.D. satellite. The two S.H.I.E.L.D. agents understood and turned off the screen that was facing a white field.

With the SHIELD satellite shut down, the others who were spying on Hawke using satellites also swallowed hard as they watched the white ground appear in the blink of an eye, and then chose to move their satellites.

Thousands of miles high in the sky.

Hawke reopened his eyes, feeling the absence of the spying sensation, and chuckled softly.

but……

Just as he turned to leave, he paused slightly, looking at the sparkling portal that appeared before him.

Hawke looked at the familiar classical layout behind the Spark Portal, raised an eyebrow, and then took a step out.

When he passed through the portal, he arrived at the New York sanctuary in Kamar-Taj, where he had once brought Gwen before.

"Hook Phoenix".

"I am Dr. Stephen Strange."

With black hair, a thin face, a small mustache, and wearing a blue Kamar-Taj sorcerer's robe and a red rune cloak, Doctor Strange stood at the top of the stairs leading to the second floor of the temple, looking at Hawke who was walking out of the portal: "You can call me Doctor Strange."

Hawke glanced at Doctor Strange, who, though his hands were hanging down, looked alert and ready to attack at any moment.

"Is something wrong?"

"That's not how it's done."

Doctor Strange looked at Hawke with his intelligent yet wary eyes, his voice low.

"is it?"

Upon hearing this, Hawke looked at Doctor Strange and chuckled.

"and then?"

You can't do that anymore.

"Ah!"

Hawke laughed.

He looked at Doctor Strange with a smile: "I'm curious, did the Sorcerer Supreme mention me to you when he retired?"

Doctor Strange was silent for a moment, then met Hawke's gaze.

"Yes."

"very good."

Hawke nodded with a bright smile, then looked at Doctor Strange: "Then I have only one question, Strange, tell me, do you sympathize with them?"

Doctor Strange's eyes narrowed.

Hawke looked at Doctor Strange with a smile: "Just a reminder, think carefully before you answer, because your answer concerns your life."

Doctor Strange met Hawke's aggressive gaze.

"I only care about the safety of our world."

"Don't change the subject."

Hawke opened his right hand, and the energy of his inner universe gathered at a visible speed in his palm, gradually forming a sphere of light that looked golden but contained enough energy to destroy a city: "Look into my eyes and tell me, Strange, do you pity them?"

Doctor Strange's gaze fell on the beautiful but dangerous orb of light in Hawke's right palm, and after Hawke's words, he looked at Hawke again.

“I have no sympathy for them.”

This is the truth.

Before he went to Kamar-Taj, he was someone they were trying to win over, after all, he was a highly skilled surgeon.

Therefore, whatever he wanted—money, houses, luxury cars—they chased after him and gave them to him.

But after he was in a car accident.

His sports car, house, and even bank accounts were immediately seized, leaving him with a mountain of debt and leading to his immediate bankruptcy.

If he hadn't gone to Kamar-Taj, he would probably be one of the many homeless people in New York City right now. So...

"I don't like them."

"but……"

Doctor Strange gave his answer, then looked at Hawke: "What you're doing will frighten and terrify them, thus dragging the world into a more dangerous situation."

Hawke raised an eyebrow and looked at the Eye of Agamotto hanging around Doctor Strange's neck.

"Have you seen the future?"

"what?"

Doctor Strange paused for a moment, then followed Hawke's gaze to the pendant around his neck, before shaking his head in realization: "No, the Sorcerer Supreme told me..."

Hawke interrupted him directly.

"You haven't looked into the future, so you're saying the future will be dangerous?"

Your actions will cause...

"You don't think this is the first time I've done something like exterminating a clan, do you?"

"..."

Doctor Strange was stunned by those words.

Hawke's lips curled up, and with a thought, his own timeline appeared above his head. He then looked at Doctor Strange and said, "I'll give you a chance to see my past."

Doctor Strange remained silent, his gaze fixed on Hawke's Time Galaxy.

into the eye.

Kill Hulk on the banks of the New Jersey River.

A final battle with Hellish Hulk in the African wilderness.

Phoenix Wings Soared Through the Sky, turning Wakanda into a white wasteland.

Hydra tested them, then annihilated them.

The final battle against the dark elves took place at Stonehenge.

Undeterred by Mephisto's threats, he forced Mephisto to relinquish control of his soul.

And then there are the countries that have been completely lost in the Atlantic.

The most important thing!
The Heavenly Dimension and the Demise of God.

Images of Hawke's past actions, which at their lowest level were wiping out entire families, but more often than not, were annihilating entire clans, flashed through Doctor Strange's eyes.

As flashbacks of Hawke's past appeared, Doctor Strange, watching the scene, began to sweat.

Even the red magic rune cloak he was wearing seemed to be trembling slightly.

After Doctor Strange finished watching, Hawke withdrew his Time Galaxy.

"hiss!"

After Doctor Strange's mind left Hawk's time galaxy, he couldn't help but gasp and instinctively looked at Hawk.

But the wariness in his eyes had completely vanished without a trace.

Instead, fear took its place.

A fear that comes from the depths of the soul.

“When I kill one, you may call me a criminal.”

"You should be afraid of me when I have killed ten thousand."

"When I've killed enough, all you can do is pray that my gaze doesn't fall on you."

“I am not someone they are meant to respect or revere.”

“I am meant to instill fear and dread in them.”

After reclaiming his time galaxy, Hawke looked at Doctor Strange expressionlessly and said calmly, "Considering my past connection with Kamar-Taj and the Sorcerer Supreme, I will forgive your recklessness this time. But remember, you can only use my connection with Kamar-Taj and the Sorcerer Supreme once. If there is a next time, I won't mind helping the Vishanti find a new representative."

talking.

He glanced at the King, the administrator who had opened a portal and arrived from the Kamar-Taj Library, and smiled slightly: "I think the King is quite good."

The burly, strong-looking King, dressed in a dark vest, shirt, and suit trousers, had just emerged from the portal. Hearing Hawke's words, he didn't understand what was going on, but he still stayed close to Doctor Strange without a smile and bowed to Hawke.

"Mr. Phoenix."

"king."

Unlike Doctor Strange, Hawke greeted Wong with a smile, asking, "Aren't you doing the sacred job of librarian anymore?"

Upon hearing this, Wang forced a smile onto his equally sturdy face: "I am now in charge of training the new mages."

Hawke raised an eyebrow.

"You've been promoted! Congratulations!"

"Thank you."

Wang smiled and said something, then looked at Doctor Strange, who was sweating profusely, before turning to Hawke.

"Mr. Phoenix..."

"It was Doctor Strange who insisted on inviting me over."

"hiss!"

Upon hearing this, Wang glanced at Doctor Strange to the side, gasped, and then looked at Doctor Strange with the eyes of someone looking at a fierce warrior.

Good guy.

You're so brave, don't you know who he is?
Doctor Strange rolled his eyes as he met the look Wang gave him, a look that seemed to regard him as a warrior.

Can you blame him?
He was just doing his daily work as the Guardian of Kamar-Taj.

who knows……

Forget it.

Doctor Strange shook his head, stretched out his right hand, and began drawing circles, creating a portal to the backyard of 521A Palm Street. He then looked at Hawke.

“Excuse me, Mr. Phoenix.”

"This portal..."

Hawke glanced at Doctor Strange.

"another."

"what?"

"Open a portal to where Odin is."

"..."
