IMUC Chapter 491 The Key to Unlocking the Body's Treasures

Kyle didn't need Tony to point it out as he had already recognized the large, doughnut-shaped Spaceship as a standard alien warship in Thanos' fleet.

It belonged to the alien forces under Thanos' command.

Kyle still had a score to settle with Thanos over Lorna's abduction, and he hadn't expected Thanos' forces to brazenly invade Earth, their home turf.

It's hard to say whether the Thanos army was overconfident or just plain stupid!

The Spaceship descended directly from the spatial rift created by the Convergence. 

The massive wind turbine that served as the Spaceship's main engine churned up the high-altitude clouds and began to suck the surface oxygen out of London, creating fierce winds that blew through the city's streets and lifted plastic bags, papers, and other debris into the sky.

The sight of the alien Spaceship sent pedestrians fleeing in terror, leaving a mess of abandoned cars blocking the streets.

As the massive Spaceship approached and the wind whipped Tony's hair upwards, he warned in a cautious tone, "Godfather, I know you're angry right now, but you better not do anything. If you accidentally shoot down that alien Spaceship, central London will be gone."

Fighting on home turf had its advantages and disadvantages.

The upside was the availability of reinforcements and familiarity with the environment. The disadvantage was the need to fight cautiously to avoid harming human compatriots, which meant not being able to fight at full strength.

Kyle nodded in agreement and said calmly, "I know that. If it weren't for the fact that this is the center of London, and the spatial ripples caused by the Convergence are everywhere, there's no way they'd still be flying safely over my head."

In the face of the double star form, no matter how advanced a civilization's technological spaceship or warship was, it was just a pile of target practice scrap metal.

In terms of speed, a Spaceship reaching the speed of light was the pinnacle of technological achievement, but the double-star form could exceed the speed of light. 

In terms of energy, Spaceships had at most the power of one star, but the energy intensity of the Double Star Form, derived from the Infinity Stone, could easily reach cosmic levels.

The Double-Star form seemed to exist to transcend the power of technological civilizations.

Tony took a deep breath and thought out loud, "Let me think of a way to avoid being forcibly teleported away, while at the same time stopping and attacking the enemies on the Spaceship..."

Hearing Tony's words, a thought occurred to Kyle. Yes, he did have such a method, but unfortunately, he had lost it long ago, and he needed a key to unlock it.

Just as Kyle was pondering this, a commotion sounded not far behind him. He and Tony turned to see a small rotating circle of sparks on the ground, forming a circular portal at a visible pace.

First, a foot stepped through, followed by a white man in a brown robe with a beard. Holding a short magic wand, he stepped onto the central plaza from the other side of the portal.

"Who are you?" Tony asked with a surprised expression on his face.

"Just call me 'Wong,'" He replied to Tony, then turned to Kyle and said with a serious expression on his face, "Mr. Kyle, the Sorcerer Supreme sent me."

"I almost forgot you existed." Kyle pointed to the Alien Spaceship descending from above and said coldly, "This definitely counts as an invasion, does it not? So, is the Ancient One planning to intervene this time?"

"No." Wong shook his head and said, "The Sorcerer Supreme has more important matters to attend to, and she said that you can handle this crisis on your own.

'What is this...'

Kyle's eyes turned cold as he looked at Wong with disdain. "Then why are you here? To cheer us on?"

The Ancient One, the supposed guardian of Earth, seemed far too laid-back.

"The Sorcerer Supreme has something for me to pass on to you."

Wong didn't beat around the bush as he took a small box from his pocket and handed it to Kyle, then turned to leave through the still spinning portal, as if he had no reason to linger here.

Wong paused and left a final message, "The Sorcerer Supreme also asked me to deliver a message to you. She said that Stephen Strange is now one of us in the Sanctum, and she hopes you won't interfere too much. Consider the item in the box as a token of friendship from the Sanctum."

As soon as he finished speaking, Wong stepped through the circular portal and disappeared from the square along with the flickering sparks.

After Wong left, Tony turned to Kyle and asked, "Godfather, who was this guy named Wong? And... did you guys say something about sorcerers and a sanctum?"

Kyle didn't answer right away; as the look in his eyes were distant. Then he snapped back to reality and said quietly, "Tony, you'll find out soon enough. Earth is not as simple as you think. Many extraordinary forces have yet to reveal themselves to the world."

"I'll be looking forward to it then." Tony nodded thoughtfully, then looked at the small box in Kyle's hand and asked with great interest, "What did he bring?"

"You'll know once it's opened."

Kyle smiled faintly and blew gently on the box in his hand. He perfectly controlled his divine flames to burn the outer box to ash, which blew away from his palm, revealing a strange, shiny black ring inside.

What made it strange was that unlike a typical ring designed for one finger, this one could be worn on two fingers.

Although Kyle was usually calm and collected, he couldn't help but tremble slightly at the sight of the strange ring in his hand. His shoulders trembled with barely concealed excitement.

This ring, delivered by Wong in the name of the Sorcerer Supreme, was not a divine weapon, but it surpassed it. It was also the exclusive key that Kyle had been missing!

"Godfather, they're coming down. We must do something."

Tony spoke seriously from the side. Kyle looked ahead and saw that the doughnut-shaped spaceship had descended to a hundred meters, generating enough thrust and wind pressure to almost knock people off their feet.

"So that's why she sent this to me?"

Kyle mused, realizing the Ancient One's intention, though it didn't change his impression of her as an indifferent overseer.

"If this is what you wanted to see, then I'll oblige, as long as you don't regret it later."

Kyle muttered and slipped the strange ring onto the two fingers of his left hand.

The moment he put the ring on, Kyle felt a familiar power flow clearly into his body through the resonance of his soul with the natural world.

At the same time, several dim ability cards in Kyle's body finally regained their brightness and became usable again...

**[Portal], [Mirror Dimension], [Magic Whip], [Shield Spell]…**

The Sling Ring. It's been so long, truly so long!

Kyle was filled with emotion. Decades ago, when he traveled from Earth to the planet Sakar, he lost the Sling Ring he had taken from a overconfident Sorcerer. It was only today that he was able to wear it again, reactivating the spell-type ability cards that had been unusable in his deck.

"Just in time to test it on you."

Kyle looked at the massive spaceship that dominated his field of vision. Suddenly, he reached out his hands, and the combined effects of the sling ring, magic power, and ability cards unleashed a spell.
