Then, she looked at Gu Yi with a little surprise and said:

"I remember you were the wizard who suddenly appeared at that time!"

There was still a faint smile on Gu Yi's face as he nodded at Gwen.

"Hello, brave Miss Spider-Woman. Thanks to your protection, New York City can be free from many disturbances."

Gwen looked even more surprised.

The other party lived in such a remote place, but he knew her name and seemed to be very familiar with her work in fighting criminals in New York City.

"I will tell you about the mage later. Let me introduce her to you first. Her name is Ancient One. She is a mage by profession and her hobby is protecting the earth."

Peter simply gave Gwen a brief introduction and planned to explain the matters about Ancient One and the Sanctuary to Gwen slowly later.

After such a simple introduction, Gwen and Ancient One got to know each other.

Although when they first met, Ancient One made Gwen feel a little uncomfortable.

But now that they met for the second time, he made up for a lot of Gu Yi's impression points.

After the three of them raised their teacups to each other and took a sip of the special tea that could only be found in Kamar-Taj.

Peter then explained his purpose to Gu Yi.

"Master Ancient One, since you anticipated our arrival, you must also know what happened at the Crown of Christ in New York not long ago, right?"

Gu nodded.

"I probably know something, so just tell me straight away!"

At this time, Peter simply turned on the projection function of the battle suit wristband.

The image of the imprisoned black-hearted monster was projected into the air.

Then, Peter pointed at the black-hearted monster on the projection screen and said to Ancient One:

"Master Ancient One, I'm sure you are also very clear about the origin of this monster, right?"

Gu Yi slowly put down the teacup, opened the fan and fanned it a few times before nodding slowly and saying:

"Yes, I know the origin of this monster, and I also know the identity of the mastermind behind its creation."

"This monster and the mastermind behind it are not from Earth, but from another dimension. They are extremely powerful, even comparable to Dormammu!"

"However, this matter has nothing to do with our lineage of Supreme Mage, so I will not interfere."

"If... you came here this time hoping that I would destroy this monster completely, I think you will be disappointed."

Peter was not at all surprised by the answer given by Ancient One.

Even this answer was already expected by Peter.

However, after decisively stating that he would not take action against the Black Heart Monster, Ancient One still did so out of consideration for the sake of their acquaintance.

Peter was given an additional suggestion, which was a special treatment that no one else could get.

"In fact, your friend from Asgard should be able to provide you with a lot of help. For example... his father is a professional in dealing with this kind of monster."

What Ancient One meant was actually to let Peter find Odin to completely eliminate the threat of the Blackheart Monster.

However, Peter did not agree or reject this suggestion.

He just nodded lightly, indicating that he accepted Gu Yi's suggestion.

"Thank you for your advice, Master Gu Yi. I will seriously consider it."

"By the way, I wonder what Master Ancient One's attitude is towards Mephisto, the demon god of this dimension?"

Peter's simple words made Ancient One frown.

Obviously, Peter actually said Mephisto's name directly, which made Ancient One feel a little surprised.

Because on Earth, there are very few people who know about the existence of dimensional demons.

Not to mention someone who could directly tell the specific name of the dimensional demon. Ancient One originally thought that Peter only vaguely knew some of the situation.

However, now it seems that Ancient One guessed wrong, and Peter knew much more than she had initially predicted!

"You actually know Mephisto's name? This is a little beyond my expectation."

"I just learned the story of the demon god who rules the plane of hell through some ancient theological books."

"Since you know the story of Mephisto, you must also know that Mephisto is not very interested in invading the earth. He just likes to obtain human souls as food. He created this monster this time, probably for a similar purpose. If he doesn't do anything more serious, it would be inconvenient for me to take action."

"I see, but the situation is not serious enough for you to take action, right?"

Peter sighed softly. Although he had expected this, he still felt sorry for Ancient One's excessive stubbornness.

"Since Master Gu Yi is not in a position to help, can you give me some hints?"

"What is Mephisto's real intention in creating this monster, and how much trouble will it cause?"

"Mephisto borrowed the body of this monster to meet me before. His attitude was very problematic at that time. I suspected that he was planning a terrible plan."

At this time, Gu Yi hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded.

Although Ancient One would not take action, he still gave Peter some hints within a limited range.

"I'm not in a position to say much about other things, but... the key to everything lies in these eight lost weapons!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Ancient One's hands slowly spread out in the air.

A large number of scattered golden stars radiated from Ancient One's hands, slowly rising, and finally formed eight floating and sinking blurry hammer-shaped weapons.

The shapes of these eight hammer-shaped weapons are not the same. Some are prismatic, some are round, and some are shaped like ancient black iron anchors.

At this time, Peter was also looking at the phantoms of eight hammer-shaped weapons transformed by Ancient One's magic power, and fell into a state of contemplation.

"This is no ordinary weapon! It is clearly the exclusive weapon of the God of Terror! It is called the Hammer of Skadi, also known as the Sky Hammer!"

"Damn it! Wasn't the Blackheart Monster created by Mephisto? How come the God of Terror is involved now?"

"Could it be that in such a short period of time, Mephisto has already caused such a huge trouble?"

"It seems that although Mephisto, the evil spirit, is not the strongest demon god of the dimension, he is definitely the demon god of the dimension who is most capable of causing trouble!"

"I will settle this account with Mephisto sooner or later!"

Chapter 168: Journey to the North Pole, Daughter of the Red Skull

At this time, Peter also understood, based on the hint given by Ancient One, how terrible the appearance of the Black Heart Monster meant.

Before coming to Kamar-Taj, Peter thought the threats from Blackheart and Mephisto were just minor problems.

Now that the God of Fear is involved, it is definitely not a small problem.

The god of fear, the mid-world serpent, the serpent that surrounds the world, the great snake, the father of the gods...

The above series of titles all symbolize the glorious history of that ancient god with terrifying power.

If Peter had just been taking things as they come before, and if he couldn't completely destroy the Black Hearted Monster, he would have handed it over to the people from SHIELD to deal with.

However, such an idea is obviously not appropriate nowadays.

Because this crisis has completely exceeded the limits of SHIELD's response capabilities.

If Peter lets it go, the Celestial Industry, which is also on Earth, will inevitably suffer huge losses.

This was something Peter couldn't sit idly by.

As the saying goes, if the lips and teeth are gone, if the superhero forces represented by S.H.I.E.L.D. are defeated, no matter how powerful Celestial Industries is, it will be powerless to turn the tide and is doomed to be in danger.

Therefore, this will be a world-destroying crisis that all superheroes and the forces behind the superheroes will unite to deal with.

However, Peter had deeper concerns in his heart at this moment.

Because according to the original plot time, the New York battle caused by Thanos and Loki will probably officially begin soon.

If these two major events happened at the same time, the pressure on the superheroes would not be as simple as doubling.

Instead, there will be a terrible effect where one plus one is far greater than two.

We must not let this worst-case scenario happen at any cost!

Just as Peter fell into a state of deep thought.

Ancient One, who was sitting opposite him, seemed to know how serious Peter's concerns were at the moment.

So, she just sat quietly and drank tea.

While waving the fan, she squinted her eyes slightly and looked at Peter with her starry eyes.

It seemed as if it was always paying attention to Peter, a special existence that was outside the normal timeline.

How will this crisis be handled?

The two big shots at the scene were silent.

The atmosphere also fell into a strange state of silence at this time.

The only third person present at the scene...Gwen, seemed a little embarrassed.

Gwen was seen sitting next to Peter, looking left and right.

For a moment I didn’t know what to do.

I just felt that my existence was a bit redundant, and I was so embarrassed that I didn't even know how to place my hands appropriately.

In the end, Plaid could only pick up the teacup in front of him.

He used the action of drinking tea to cover up his inner embarrassment.

However, just when Gwen put the teacup in her hand back on the coffee table.

Peter's eyes, which had been somewhat wandering, regained their focus.

It seems that he has already considered what to do next.

Peter suddenly looked up and gave Ancient One a strange smile.

Then, Peter raised his hand and pointed at the eight-fuzzy hammer-shaped weapon still floating in front of Ancient One and said:

"Master Ancient One, I think you should know the origins of these weapons better than I do, right?"

At this time, Gu Yi nodded silently, agreeing with Peter's statement.

At this moment, the smile on Peter's face looked even weirder.

"A huge crisis involving two dimensional demon-level beings is not big enough for you, Master Gu Yi, to intervene?"

"It seems that Master Gu Yi's standards for attacking are even stricter than I thought."

Faced with Peter's meaningful question.

Gu Yi still nodded without changing his expression.

Then, he added:

"In fact, before you came here, I had already seen 6,578,956 branch timelines related to this incident in the future."

"In these branching timelines, there are indeed no catastrophic events that can truly endanger the Earth."

"So I'm sorry, according to our rules, I really can't interfere."

"Young man, all I can say to you here is... I wish you good luck."

However, when he got this answer from Ancient One, Peter suddenly showed a bright smile.

"Master Ancient One, can I assume that I have successfully resolved all the crises in the 6,578,956 branching timelines you have seen?"

"In other words, as long as I act according to the plan in my mind, I can almost 100% get through this difficult time?"

Obviously, Peter just asked Ancient One to be a prophet for him.

Ancient One, who can observe the direction of millions of branching timelines, is simply the most powerful prophet in the universe, no doubt about it.

Peter was a little uneasy at first, but now with Ancient One's accurate prediction, he felt much more at ease.

As for Gu Yi, he was slightly stunned, a hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes, but he quickly returned to normal.

"I have no comment on this question..."

"Also, it's almost time for me to go on retreat. You two can stay here and continue drinking tea, or visit Kamar-Taj. I can't accompany you any longer."

Gu Yi put away the fan in his hand, stood up and walked towards an old futon on the floor of the room.
