Marvel Person: You call this a sorcerer?

Chapter 73 The Mysterious Land of the Sorcerer Supreme

However, things took a turn that surprised Ronan.

The Ancient One chose to leave Kamar-Taj and instructed Mordo and the King to manage Kamar-Taj for two weeks before taking Ronan to an unfamiliar place.

The walls of this cave are covered with many murals.

Yes, there are many murals.

But most of them are simple little figures, and Ronan now needs someone to help explain them.

After all, in those movies, when the main characters go on adventures, there always needs to be a character who explains the facts.

They also have to forcefully explain all sorts of supernatural and mystical things as science.

"This is actually the cave where the first Supreme Master Agamotto practiced."

"The content of these murals largely tells the story of Agamotto's first experience of magic and his transformation from an ordinary person into a sorcerer."

The Ancient One, with Ronan in tow, quickly passed through the first half of the mural.

The Ancient One stopped in front of the largest mural.

Ronan looked at the mural in front of him, and he seemed to see many familiar things in it.

There was a man dressed in clothing similar to that of Kamar-Taj, with his hands raised to the sky, holding the most basic Kamar-Taj spell, Ring of Raghadore.

Although only a circle was drawn above, Ronan's first thought was this move.

Above the man's head were several short lines, seemingly representing streaks of golden light.

On either side are two pillar-like structures.

The man seemed to be wearing an ornament on his chest, which vaguely resembled the Eye of Agamotto.

In addition, at the very top of the mural are six circular objects.

On the far left of the mural is a hand, but there are six equally sized grooves on the back of the hand.

There is a groove at each of the five fingers, and another in the center of the back of the hand.

Without a doubt, this is an Infinity Gauntlet!

If we take it all together, then those six circular objects above your head are the six Infinity Stones, right?

Is this the man in front of me Agamotto?

Holy crap?

Did Agamotto already have the Infinity Gauntlet back in his time?

"Teacher, is this our founding master?"

Ronan pointed at the bald man—no, the one with a glittering light on his head—and asked.

If this is Agamotto, then this guy is just too amazing.

Based on what's shown in the mural, this powerful figure seems to have already controlled all six Infinity Stones.

There's even an Infinity Gauntlet?

Did he change anything?

However, Gu Yi glanced at Ronan silently and shook her head.

"This is not a portrait of the Patriarch Agamotto. The portrait in front of me was not like this the last time I saw it."

The Ancient One's words greatly surprised Ronan.

Wardfa?

Or is it a mural that can change?

Why had he never heard of such a thing before?

"Ronan, do you know the origin of the Infinity Stones?"

As Gu Yi gazed at the mural before her, her thoughts seemed to drift far away.

Ronan nodded. The origins of the six Infinity Stones were all written in books.

This book is one of the books in the Kamar-Taj Library, but most sorcerers cannot see it.

Ronan was only allowed to read the book last year.

"In the beginning, the universe was nothingness."

"The Big Bang hurled six elemental crystals into the depths of the new universe; these are also known as the Infinity Stones."

"Each of these Infinity Stones controls a fundamental aspect of existence."

"Space, reality, power, soul, mind."

"And the Time Stone that we have guarded for generations in Kamar-Taj."

Ronan's theoretical knowledge is quite solid; after all, reading these things is much more interesting than reading books.

Many things can be listened to as myths.

"That's right, this is the origin of the Infinity Stones."

"But what if I told you it was just a record?"

"Or rather, everything we are recording now represents a view that is generally accepted by most people."

"There is another viewpoint that is not accepted by the majority."

Gu Yi gently stroked the mural on it, and the stone surface, which was originally extremely dull, began to emit a faint light.

What the heck? A touchscreen?

Ronan watched as the Ancient One pulled one of the six Infinity Stones down from the top and moved it to the leftmost Infinity Gauntlet.

? ? ? ? ?

What kind of operation is this?

Ronan was completely baffled; he couldn't understand what was happening in front of him.

Touch to turn on the screen, then swipe to unlock?

These stone murals are incredibly advanced!

A thousand-year-old antique produced last month?

The reason Ronan believed that the Ancient One's action was a slide to unlock was because the mural in front of him actually came to life after the stone was placed into the Infinity Gauntlet.

There's a way to put it...

You're at home looking at those little pictures you can't share with others, but suddenly the woman in the picture starts moving.

Simply put, it changed from a JPG to a GIF.

There's also the idea of ​​evolving towards short videos of a few dozen seconds.

Is this some kind of ghost or what?

"Some people have said that these six Infinity Stones are actually beyond time."

"Take the Space Stone in your possession as an example. It's already in your hands, even if someone tries to travel back in time and take it away from you."

"Then he'll only discover that the Space Stone doesn't exist in that world."

Gu Yi looked at the changing mural on the wall and spoke softly.

At this moment, the person in the mural appears to be fighting against the remaining five Infinity Stones.

Nobody knows the exact reason.

"This isn't right, is it?"

"Teacher, as you know, I've been to the main universe once, but they borrowed the Infinity Stones from the past."

Ronan frowned; something stuck with him.

That was when Steve Rogers went to return the other five gems, and he never came back.

Instead, he chose to stay in the past and, together with Peggy Carter, fulfill his promise.

Ultimately, the person who returned to deliver the shield became an older version of Steve Rogers.

"Are you sure they borrowed it from the past?"

"If they traveled through timelines, why would they appear in our universe?"

Gu Yi looked at Ronan with a smile and asked a very important question.

For a moment, Ronan was also stunned.

Yes, if they traveled through timelines, why would they end up in this universe?

But Ronan had also seen Steve Rogers grow old.

There seems to be something not quite right between these two statements.

Or perhaps, when they returned to retrieve the Space Stone, Time Stone, and Mind Stone, they made a mistake along the way, which led them to travel through a parallel universe.

For a moment, Ronan's mind went completely blank.
