I'm not Spider-Man, even though I'm parasitized by an alien!

"Why are you here, mage?"

“I’m here to help you, Strange.”

The Ancient One's foot landed on the ground. "You are now lost, Strange."

"Yes, I am somewhat lost. I am now a mouse, being played by the cat of fate."

The Ancient One slowly said, "If you want to be a changer, fate will resist those who want to change it in an 'interesting way.' Sometimes fate is hard to change."

"Strange, this is where it all began, the start of your journey. Dr. Christine Palmer's death will turn you into a disillusioned man, leading you to seek answers through magic, and then you and I will meet. This is an unchangeable point in our destiny."

Strange stood up. "Then help me change this point, mage."

“I’m sorry, I can’t, and no one can. Her death was an absolute point in time.”

"absolute?"

Strange shook his head. "It's not the comminuted fractures of my hands, but Christine's death that's the absolute turning point?"

The Ancient One spoke in a rational tone: "Yes, your hands can save lives, but you cannot save Dr. Palmer from death, because you have misunderstood one thing, Strange: the damage to your hands is not inextricably linked to your becoming the Sorcerer Supreme and defeating the Beholder."

"That was just a normal accident."

"This universe is full of surprises. Why is my surprise considered ordinary, but Christine's surprise is destined!"

Holding the Eye of Agamotto, he angrily stepped forward to question the Ancient One.

“It’s all destined to happen, Strange. You’re now rewriting the laws of the universe, risking the safety of the entire universe. You can’t succeed.”

Strange shook his head. "Nothing is impossible. That's what you taught me. The reason I can't do it now is simply because I'm not strong enough. I need more power."

The Ancient One placed her hand on his shoulder and gently advised her most proud disciple, "No, you can't. Even the greatest sorcerer in history couldn't do it, Strange."

"How do you know it's not possible? You said that the magic you know is only a tiny part of the entire universe. I'm creating a paradox, in my own way."

Strange took a step back, letting the other man's hand move off his shoulder.

"Stop torturing yourself; you'll only make yourself suffer more."

Master Gu Yi continued to earnestly persuade his beloved disciple.

No! I will not give up.

"This will only lead you down a path of darkness and destruction, Stephen."

Strange was no longer willing to listen to the Ancient One. He activated the Eye of Agamotto, preparing to restart time once again.

Seeing that his disciple was stubborn and unrepentant, Master Gu Yi stopped trying to persuade him with words.

Her gaze sharpened. "Don't do that, Stephen, or I'll have to get rough."

Strange looked up at his master. "No, you won't lay a hand on me, Master."

"You can try and see if I stop you!"

As she spoke, the Ancient One immediately created two shimmering fans in her hands and assumed a fighting stance.

Their eyes met, and Strange's gaze made the Ancient One feel somewhat unfamiliar.

He slowly lowered his head, and the Eye of Agamotto hanging on his chest emitted an even brighter green light.

"That depends on whether you can find me!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he activated the power of the Time Stone, preparing to jump to another time.

Knowing what his disciple was about to do, the Ancient One immediately waved his fan.

A powerful beam of magic shot out from the fan and hurtled towards Strange.

By this time, Strange had already entered the river of time.

"boom!"

Blinding light spread outwards with the explosion.

When the dust and light settled where Strange had been standing, everything was empty.

Chapter 307 Gwen and the Ancient One at the Station

Taking a deep breath, Strange reached out and touched his chest.

Aside from the tear in her clothes at the chest, her skin was not injured.

"Looks like I'm pretty lucky."

He patted his chest, stood up, and looked around at his surroundings.

The surroundings were quiet, as if we were in a secluded and deserted place.

"Okay, I need to continue my life reboot, but before that..."

Strange muttered something to himself, then stood up and walked outside.

But when he turned around, he saw a figure standing in front of him.

The other party wore a straw hat and held a strangely shaped mage's staff.

"Uh, hello, I'm on my way to Camustro's Lost City of Books, sir, are you aware of that?"

The Camustro he was referring to was a famous wizard.

The Book of Camustro is a forbidden book that records various kinds of magic.

It also includes a lot of dark magic, such as summoning Dormammu and the Eye Demon.

Its author, Camustro, was not a person of this century.

He is a magician born in the 31st century who traveled through time to the beginning of Genesis, absorbed and learned all the magic, and eventually became a god, becoming "Genesis".

In addition, he was the first wizard to discover the Eye of Agamotto.

The Eye of Agamotto is an artifact passed down through generations of the Sorcerer Supreme, forged by Agamotto, son of Osset, the Mother of White Magic.

The fact that they were the first to discover the Eye of Agamotto speaks volumes about their magical prowess.

After learning about Camus's deeds, Strange attempted to find even greater power in the books he had collected.

Now that he has fallen out with the Ancient One, the only thing he can do is to strengthen himself before thinking about time travel.

Seeing that the other person didn't speak, Strange waved at him. "Hello, can you hear me? The library, do you know where it is?"

He gestured with his hand, "I think I've arrived at the forbidden land of time. Perhaps you can give me some insight. The Lost City of Books that I'm talking about is a place for storing books, reading books, and acquiring knowledge."

The man in the straw hat stared at him for a while, then suddenly turned and left.

"Hey, hey, I'm talking to you! Why are you leaving?"

Seeing that the other person was about to leave, Strange immediately gave chase.

Following the strange fellow out of the dense forest, a magnificent castle appeared before him.

Looking up at the majestic castle in the distance, Strange shook his head helplessly.

"What a nice place, it's a pity there's no entrance."

As he spoke, he immediately cast a teleportation spell, sending himself to the castle hall, which was dozens of meters high and right next to the cliff.

He had previously used the Eye of Agamotto to teleport himself to this legendary lost land, which is outside of time.

It is said that the Book of Camustro exists here, but he now has some doubts.

Hello? Is anyone there?

He shouted towards the empty space around him.

No one responded to him; the surroundings remained deathly silent.

He took two steps forward and saw a rune symbol on the floor.

"Hmm, it seems there are still some hints."

He crouched down, made a hand gesture, and used visible magic to apply it to the magic runes.

"Whoosh!"

As he moved, the magical runes on the ground immediately came to life and floated in front of him.

Then more and more magical runes rose from the ground, emitting a dazzling light and surrounding him.

At the same time, the ground beneath his feet began to move.

"boom!"

With a scream, Strange fell into the collapsing ground.

He fell into the dark ground and staggered to his feet.

Clutching his throbbing head, he looked toward a faint light emanating from afar.

Then the firelight grew larger in his eyes, and the man wearing a straw hat he had seen earlier walked towards him, holding a torch.

"You are the most outlandishly dressed mage I have ever seen."

The man in the straw hat finally spoke to him.

"Ahem, this is an Armani suit, it might be worth a bit of money."

Strange glanced at his suit and said to the other person, "I'm here to meet the legendary sorcerer Camustro. According to records, he has mastered the secrets of breaking through time points. Where should I find him?"

The man in the straw hat shook his head. "Sorry, that's a bit difficult. He's elusive and leaves no trace."

Strange stared at him. "Okay, you're being all mysterious and unpredictable. Don't tell me you're Camustro."

"No, I am not."

The man in the straw hat said he wasn't the person he was looking for. "I'm Auburn, the librarian of the Camustro Library. Come with me, Master Armani."

As he spoke, he gripped his staff and walked forward.

"No, I'm not Armani, I'm Strange."

“Names are not important. Besides, I’ve seen plenty of mages with even stranger names than yours.”

As he spoke, he led Strange to a door.

"boom!"
