Chapter 1401 Call of the Stars (end) _3

"Assuming that principle holds true and this power means no harm to humanity, it simply believes that humans might better suit the world transformed in this way. And I'm not talking about ordinary people turned into monsters, but those of you who, strong in yourselves, survived the onslaught, gaining new abilities. Then why does it think that way?"

"Why is it that having these special abilities is the only way to adapt better to this world? What's happened to the world?"

Just as Jarvis finished speaking, a thunderous crash echoed from the coffee shop entrance, and a male figure clutching a little girl with a raccoon perched on his shoulder came running their way from the infinite fracture of space in the distance.

"Quill?!" Jarvis exclaimed in surprise.

But Quill had no time to answer any questions. He simply raced past, shouting, "Run! Go to Central Park! Find The Ancient One!"

Standing at the coffee shop window, they could see a terrifyingly dark whirlwind rolling in from the New York City skyline. Space shattered like coffee beans thrown into a grinder, crumbling to the rumbling sound and trembling. The world was slowly breaking apart.

They started to run. "What on earth is going on, Quill?!" Jarvis asked while running.

"You mean with me or the world?!"

"Both!"

"I've touched the truth, and the world is now going to ruin!"

"What do you mean?" Wanda shouted in fury.

"This world is a dream!"

"A dream?!"

On the sidewalk leading to Central Park, New York, they saw a large phantom temple. The Ancient One seemed to have been waiting for them for a long time. A huge portal stood above her head.

"You should go." The Ancient One's face was bathed in a magical glow, black patterns spreading across it. Xu Shang-Chi was about to say something, but The Ancient One interrupted him, "I'm not eager for death. I have to confront the architect of the dream. It's the responsibility, the destiny of the Supreme Magician."

Then, a sweeping magic power swept them up and pushed them into the portal.

Before Quill and Jenny entered the portal, The Ancient One glanced at them and said, "Thank you for revealing the true nature of this world... please excuse me, I can't do the same as I have to conserve my power to face greater truths."

As Jenny's face gradually disappeared into the magical brilliance of the portal, The Ancient One saw the little girl mouth the words – "Thank you."

Infinite light burst from The Ancient One's eyes. That long-lasting rift, in a dazzling golden light, closed slowly, firmly, and peremptorily, leaving no scars. The brilliance was complete.

"Come on, let me see, who rules destiny in dreams!"

The Ancient One's robe fluttered as she looked up at the stars, just as she was about to touch the truth, an outraged roar came from the edge of the portal -

"Blinding my eyes! And you expect me to just go?! Fat chance!"

Human beings can't directly observe the truth of the cosmos, but an angry woman can.

The Scarlet Witch glowed with intense red light, illuminating the entire sky. The red light in her eyes was like the fire lit by chaos when the infinite universe had not yet been born, powerful enough to burn through everything. Her roar echoed throughout the cosmos:

"Xeseon! I command you to answer!"

Xeseon's voice came in broken phrases.

"What is that?"

Xeseon was confused.

"Behind me!"

Xeseon began to fear.

"Wanda, you can't..."

"Useless!"

Then, Xeseon felt, his own body, which was almost infinitely made up of chaos power, shaking. They were rushing towards another place at a terrifying speed that even Xeseon felt, so fast, so vast, that Xeseon felt he was facing the end.

"Wanda, stop!!! You'll destroy everything!!!"

When the infinite chaos power and the Power of Eternity from Eternity itself exploded simultaneously, the world was completely shattered.

And in the background of the chaotic and shattered whirlpool, Wanda and The Ancient One both beheld a sight too immense, too majestic to describe.

Just before the universe completely collapsed, Wanda felt the greatest pride and defiance in her human heart, transforming into an ultimate flame of fury.

So, the Scarlet Witch, who never knew retreat, ignited all of her chaos power in a manner filled with the most malicious hatred and vengeful spirit of humankind.

Infinite flames burned between countless Dream Universes, like a prairie fire, consuming these unconscious dreams without a trace left.

And Wanda, almost fused with the chaos rules, stood empty-eyed with the pleasure of revenge, if I must endure a night of terror without sweet dreams, then none shall have any.

In the end, the solitary scarlet figure stood in the universe, facing the stars, and fearlessly called out its true name -

"Asathos..."
