Chapter 4014

"Sorry, I must go back immediately." Strange looked at everyone and said, "A very dangerous demon god is approaching Earth rapidly. As the Sorcerer Supreme, I must go back to support immediately, and the Great Mages must also go back with me."

No one expressed objection to this; after all, they couldn't fight this war and let others lose their own home. But Stark gave Steve a wink, Steve nodded, stood up, and said: "This must be Batman's strategy, to make us besieged on all sides and weaken our power as much as possible. The more it is like this, the more we cannot panic; we must rearrange the camp defense. Captain Americas and the Winter Soldier follow me; the latest defensive measures will be conveyed to the Avengers of each universe by Captain America."

The Captain Americas and the Winter Soldier all stood up and left the meeting. Immediately after, Natasha also stood up and said: "Agent Romanoffs follow me. Involving the Three Empires and the Interstellar Council, we might need to do some social engineering work in the intelligent life society; please follow me immediately."

The Black Widows didn't say anything either and left the field very neatly and orderly. Then Stark stood up and said: "Defensive power is weakened, and scientific research personnel with combat ability must also take on part of the defense responsibility. Iron Man, Hulk, Ant-Man, Doctor Doom, and the Fantastic Four follow me; we need to clarify responsibilities as soon as possible and decide on the personnel to go out."

This involved quite a lot of people; the Iron Men stood up sparsely, some were clearly reluctant, but most were still rational, knowing that this time it wasn't a joke, and eventually followed.

Dr. Banner and Dr. Pym were relatively cooperative and followed Stark. Most of the Fantastic Four followed, except for Doctor Doom—the Doom of the central universe stood up and said: "Doom believes that only Doom understands the situation of Doctor Doom better. And most of us can engage in magic research, while other scientific research personnel cannot. So Doom believes that Doctor Doom's team should have a certain degree of autonomy; Dooms will sort out the personnel themselves."

"Go tell the central command." Stark didn't look back and took the others away.

Doom communicated with Professor X in silence, and after a long while, seemed to have obtained permission, and the Doctor Dooms followed him.

"Fine, Hawkeyes follow me." Barton of the central universe stood up and waved his hand, "We aren't very suitable for cosmic combat; if there are no accidents, we should be sent to Earth for defensive combat, and then listen to Director Fury's arrangements."

The Hawkeyes didn't have any opinions either; they also knew that they were at a disadvantage in the cosmic environment as shooters; not to mention that their physique was just a bit stronger than ordinary people, the key is that once a fight starts, there is all kinds of energy turbulence, and it's really hard to shoot accurately. They are more suitable for surface combat.

Then there were various heroes such as Falcon, Quake, Wasp, etc., most of whom were organized by Coulson to go to the meeting room to wait for the defensive work arranged by the command center.

The Black Panthers of Wakanda also came quite a few; they were the last to leave because many Black Panthers were very worried about the situation of Wakanda in this universe.

Unlike other superheroes, Black Panthers treat the Wakanda in the multiverse as the same country, because Wakanda is originally a tribal system, and each tribe has a leader, which together constitutes the country of Wakanda.

And different Wakandas in the multiverse are equivalent to different tribes; they use the same name, so naturally, they are the same country. So the Black Panthers formed a very perfect council system first, with the Black Panther of the central universe serving as the Great Chieftain, the main universe and another universe serving as equal chieftains, and the others as ordinary chieftains; if there is anything, they follow the tribal discussion process.

Unlike other superheroes who are more worried about their own Earth, all Black Panthers are also very worried about the Wakanda in this universe. Hearing that there is danger approaching, they all want to rush back to Earth to support immediately.

"Don't worry," T'Challa explained to them, "The magic defense network of our universe is very perfect, and no demon god can directly invade Earth. Besides, Shuma-Gorath has greatly violated the galaxy management regulations of the Sanctum Sanctorum; besides humans, other members of the Sanctum Sanctorum will also take action against him."

"We aren't worried about this," the Black Panther of the main universe said, "The previous Sorcerer Supreme died at the hands of this Shuma-Gorath; I heard you wanted to call the Ancient One back before, we are worried that this might make her meet the calamity."

T'Challa frowned immediately. He hadn't thought of this point. Don't look at Wakanda's advanced technology; in fact, Black Panther is not a technology hero, he is also engaged in metaphysics. Because there is an African pantheon, the witchcraft atmosphere of African tribes is also very strong, and there are many rules, one of which is "predetermined fate"—to use a more Eastern way of saying it, it's "meeting the calamity."

To explain it specifically: when a person will die is determined long ago; even if he predicts the way of his death in advance and uses various methods to avoid it, it is difficult to escape the calamity; on the contrary, the more he resists, the faster he dies.

Most of the Ancient Ones in the universe died at the hands of Shuma-Gorath, and this time Shuma-Gorath came, and the Ancient One happened to be called back; could this be some kind of predestined calamity?

Thinking of this, T'Challa also became a bit uneasy. He hurriedly called Strange and explained his speculation. Don't look at this set of things as sounding quite ridiculous, but this is indeed the logic of the magic world—otherwise, why did the Ancient One happen to be called back at this time, and why were there so many demon gods, and it happened to be Shuma-Gorath who came?

Although the Ancient One in this universe is so powerful that no one knows to what extent she is because of abundant energy, fate is really hard to say; it's better to believe it exists than to believe it doesn't.

Not to mention that Strange immediately contacted the Ancient One to discuss countermeasures, the Ghost Rider on this side also rushed over and said to Strange: "Mephisto just sent a message, saying his son Blackheart has run out, let us be prepared early."

"Damn it," Strange cursed mercilessly, "It must be Batman who found him. This guy neither wants to offend Batman nor wants to offend us, playing the idea of eating from both sides, what a bastard!"

"It's okay, he can't get into the magic defense network. But it's not good to let him cause destruction in the solar system; my brother and I will find a way to solve him, you don't need to worry too much." Johnny Blaze said.

"Okay, I'll leave it to you." Strange nodded.

Suddenly, the phone at his hand rang again; he picked it up and said: "Dormammu also has movements? What did he say?... Okay, he's sensible. But don't trust him too much, send someone to watch him."

Hanging up the phone, Strange breathed a sigh of relief. Dormammu has been sleeping for most of the time recently, and he doesn't know what kind of person Batman sent to wake him up. But Dormammu has no interest in participating in this matter and turned over and went back to sleep.

As for the Lord of the Crimson Dimension Cyttorak, the Great Demon Shadow Chthon, etc., they were all harassed by Batman. But they were either not interested or knew they couldn't beat him, and basically didn't participate.

However, there was a slightly unexpected existence jumping up and down, and that was the Snake God Set. This guy is an ancient god of Earth and has a Serpent Crown, and also contracted with Madame Hydra, but he hasn't appeared again since he showed his face once, and he didn't expect that he still wouldn't give up.

But compared to this, Strange was more curious about what kind of person Batman sent to be able to wake up so many demon gods—you know, sometimes even the Great Mages can't contact the owners of those inert dimensions. Batman's messenger could contact so many demon gods in such a short time; isn't this a chosen employee of the Sanctum Sanctorum?

After some investigation—mainly because Chthon, who had no backbone, confessed everything in one breath—Strange learned that it was precisely the special Flash, Barry Allen, who left countless space traps on the battlefield that day.

To distinguish this Flash from other Flashes, Strange gave him the code name "KillerFlash." Then he learned from more demon gods that the other party used that very peculiar ability to cut space to directly break through the dimensions of many demon gods and ran to their faces to kick them awake.

Most demon gods are invincible in their own dimensions, able to control space and time, and simply cannot tolerate a speedster being so arrogant. However, this KillerFlash also possesses another very peculiar ability, which is a kind of primordial dark power they have never seen before. The demon gods claim that this power is highly polluting and will cause a certain degree of erosion to their dimensions, so even if he runs around in the dimension, no one is willing to catch him.

Whether this KillerFlash is too strong or the demon gods are exaggerating to avoid the pursuit of the Sorcerer Supreme, Strange doesn't know. But he knows that KillerFlash will definitely be a trump card in Batman's hand.

For the Sanctum Sanctorum, tonight can be said to be full of smoke and fire, and Strange is also quite overwhelmed. Looking at the readings on the magic defense network, he finally dialed the phone of the United Nations Security Council.

"Hello, I am the Sorcerer Supreme. After research by my department, we had better not face Shuma-Gorath directly; we should avoid its edge and move the Earth to a safer place."

After hanging up the phone, Strange supported the table with both hands, gritted his teeth and said, "Truly worthy of Batman, all the security loopholes in the universe are served on the table together."

In the command center of Apokolips, the main universe Batman nodded to Barry and said: "Well done, I didn't expect you to be able to contact such a powerful demon god."

"I also heard from others that the monster with only one eyeball killed the Sorcerer Supreme, so I thought of going to find him. But he seems to have no reason, and I also spent a lot of effort to lure him over."

The main universe Batman turned back to look at the star map and said: "The Earth of this universe is highly developed, which is a bad thing and a good thing for us. Although they can use more technological power, the local range they need to guard is also larger. Just having a magic defense network on Earth is far from enough; if they don't want the solar system to suffer losses, they can only find ways to intercept the enemy outside the solar system."

"Asgard probably can't help," Barry said with his arms crossed, "Although the Three Empires didn't send troops together, only two empires are enough to be quite threatening. Their energy will be pulled over there, so they can't help Earth much."

"Later, there will be help from Mephisto and Set, and Thanos's threat is imminent; the mages might not be able to look after the entire solar system. In order to ensure the solar system is not destroyed to the greatest extent, when they ask for help from the Asgardian base, it is the best time for us to take action."

The main universe Batman stared at a point on the star map and said slowly. Barry felt a bit emotional and said: "I originally thought the universe on this side was quite safe, but I didn't expect you to be able to dig out so many security loopholes from such a remote corner, which can be considered as clearing mines for them in advance."

"This is the meaning of this war," the main universe Batman said, as if thinking of something, and lowered his eyes, "Otherwise, why would that shrewd guy choose his own home as the battlefield?"

"Not good, Batman!" The main universe Superman suddenly flew in from the window and said to the main universe Batman, "Earth is gone!"

"...... What?"

"Earth! The Earth of this universe! You asked me to go over and watch, and I saw a light flash, and then the Earth went 'buzz' and disappeared!!!"

"......?"
