"Don't get excited. I don't need your life."
Alex smiled, trying to calm the Punisher, then turned his gaze to the Sentry. "I'm here for you, Sentry."
"Me?" The Sentry looked confused.
"Yes. You hold the key to unlocking all these secrets."
Alex said seriously.
"Perhaps in the entire universe, only someone like you can carry the contamination brought by the higher narrative beings. Only you can show me the coordinates of that world."
Alex knew that the contamination in the Sentry hadn't vanished. Or rather, the traces of contamination still lingered in his mental world. It was only after he came here that the two contaminations partially neutralized and counterbalanced each other.
Under these circumstances, the two contaminations were now in completely different states, resulting in an eerie tearing sensation.
The wild madness and bloodlust within the Sentry's body had reached a balance, allowing him to maintain a normal state.
To be precise, Doctor Strange had only cured the zombie virus within him, but the contamination continued to distort his mind, pushing him into extreme madness.
However, for the Sentry now, the void had replaced him as the carrier of the contamination.
"What do you need me to do?" The Sentry asked without hesitation.
"It's not a difficult task. I need to enter your mental world once more and touch that layer of contamination, because there, I might find the gateway to another dimension.
Stephen, I need you to maintain the stability of the Sanctum Sanctorum. I'm not sure if my actions will trigger any responses from the contamination, after all, there is an 'alive' source of contamination in this world."
"I understand, but do you really not need me to go with you?" Doctor Strange casually asked.
"Thank you for the offer, but it's better if you stay here. I can't be sure what kind of impact it would have if you entered that world. Moreover, you're the Supreme Sorcerer—if you leave, this Sanctum will fall apart."
As he spoke, Alex stood up and approached the Sentry, gently placing his hand on the Sentry's head.
"Alright, I was just being polite," Doctor Strange shrugged.
Not responding to Doctor Strange's words, Alex slowly closed his eyes and softly murmured to the Sentry.
"Relax, Robert. Don't be nervous, and don't think about anything."
Black liquid began to flow from Alex's sleeves, thick like tar, gradually covering his entire palm.
Slowly, more and more black liquid poured out, covering both Alex and the Sentry.
[Master, are you sure you want to do this?]
Miss Minutes's voice suddenly rang out.
Unlike before, Miss Minutes's voice sounded cold this time, completely different from her usual carefree and happy tone.
'I'm sure. This is something I must do.'
Alex closed his eyes, furrowing his brow slightly as he responded. Things had developed to this point—if he didn't go see it for himself, he would never forgive himself.
[You should know one thing. Once you come into contact with that world, you will be disconnected from the timepad. In other words, I will no longer be able to protect your personal safety.]
Miss Minutes continued, her tone calm, as if a machine were delivering the instructions without any emotional involvement.
'I know. This is also one of the things I want to investigate,' Alex replied in his mind. 'The timepad can cross over the worlds of both the Avengers and the Justice League. It should be able to access more multiverses.'
[You will return, won't you?]
'Don't speak as if I'm already dead, ma'am.'
Alex smirked, continuing his response.
'What you need to ensure is that, when I'm not around, the Wasteland Universe and the Overseers will continue to live in peace, at least without causing any trouble. As for my safety, I'm no longer a naive newbie.'
Upon hearing this, Miss Minutes fell silent.
After what seemed like an eternity, her voice finally came again.
[Are you going to leave again without a word? Will you not say goodbye to Miss Kara and Mr. Pietro?]
This time, it was Alex who fell silent.
However, the mental contamination didn't give Alex much time to think.
Just as Alex was pondering how to respond, suddenly, an enormous force of suction pulled him in, and Alex's mind was violently plunged into darkness.
[Error Report.]
[Time Master.]
[Connection Lost.]
The dizziness from the mind-switching engulfed Alex's mind.
Suddenly, he 'opened his eyes,' and everything in front of him vanished.
All sight was consumed by endless darkness, and Alex felt as if he had been deprived of his senses, finding himself in a world with no daylight.
Arriving in such a place, Alex couldn't say he wasn't nervous. After the initial panic, Alex quickly calmed himself.
This wasn't the first time he had moved in this form. Previously, when observing Loki's multiversal tree, he had moved in this way.
The situation wasn't out of control—at least he still maintained his rationality, and he could still use his own energy.
Quietly reflecting, Alex extended his energy, trying to find the boundaries of this darkness.
What was this darkness? Why would such a place exist in the Sentry's mental world? Could this be the truth of the contamination? Was everything presented in a void-like state?
Alex had originally speculated that when he entered here, he would be overwhelmed by the chaotic emotions, just like the last time. But what Alex didn't expect was that this time, there was absolutely nothing here.
No!
Suddenly, Alex felt a repulsive force pushing back against his power.
Opening his eyes again, Alex directed his focus quickly towards the source of this force.
In the pitch-black darkness, a soft, bubble-like barrier stood in front of him.
It wasn't exactly a solid wall, as Alex noticed that with just a slight poke, he could create a hole in it.
However, in this unfamiliar environment, Alex couldn't afford to act recklessly. After all, no one knew what this was, nor what unknown entity might be hidden behind that barrier.
Instinctively channeling his magical energy, Alex attempted to get closer to the soft barrier. Soon, a strange sensation returned to his mind, followed by invisible ripples.
'The Wall of Reality?'
At that moment, Alex finally understood the true nature of this thing. Although it was different from the Wall of Reality he had seen before, the sensation caused by the collision of energies was undeniably similar.
However, there was a slight difference: this Wall of Reality was far more 'resilient' than he had imagined, and it was continuously rejecting his magical energy.
It felt as though…
As though his magic was completely incompatible with that reality!
'Incompatibility and clear division—this is the difference brought about by completely different power systems,' Alex thought.
His brow furrowed even deeper. He didn't want his first encounter with the contamination to fail simply because of the rejection between their powers.
But there was nothing he could do—his magic energy wasn't compatible with this world.
In other words, he couldn't descend into this world in his true form. If he forced his way in, it would be a huge challenge both for Alex's body and for the reality of that world.
At this moment, Alex felt like a fox standing before a porcupine, its sharp quills making it impossible for him to approach.
If he couldn't find the right method, Alex would forever be stuck outside this dimension, unable to make any progress.
Wait!
'No one can descend into this world in their true form.'
Alex blinked. A sudden flash of insight struck him, and he quickly grasped the idea.
Yes, with incompatible powers, he couldn't descend in his true form.
But... it seemed he didn't necessarily need to use his true form to enter that world.
As long as he found a suitable vessel, even beings like Lucifer and Michael could easily descend to the mortal realm.
With this thought, Alex slowly smiled.
At the Kroger supermarket in the USA, numerous thieves were fiercely firing their weapons at the outside.
Just half an hour ago, these criminals had robbed a bank and fled by car. As they were about to escape the city, the Eagle appeared.
Armed with a bow and arrow, he shot the driver of the car with a single arrow, exploding his head.
With no other option, the criminals rushed into the Kroger supermarket with the stolen money and took dozens of hostages, threatening them while trying to find a way out, all while exchanging gunfire with the Eagle outside.
As one of the superheroes under the Vought Group, the Eagle's powerful vision and extraordinary physical abilities made each of his shots easily take the lives of the criminals.
But it seemed he had forgotten that his quiver of arrows was finite. Using such primitive weapons against the criminals' firearms, without any backup, had left him in a difficult situation.
Perhaps Vought had overlooked the need for practical combat when designing their superheroes. As a result, when the Eagle ran out of arrows, the criminals began a vengeful massacre.
Countless innocent people were gunned down by the enraged criminals, their blood covering the streets.
Inside the warehouse at the back of the supermarket.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
A bloodied man lay on the ground, five bullet holes in his back, blood continuously flowing from them.
The man stared wide-eyed, not understanding why he was caught in this disaster.
He was just a student working part-time, and he couldn't fathom why this tragedy had befallen him.
His breathing became more difficult, his vision slowly fading.
In the haze, a phantom voice sounded in his ear.
"Say yes."
'What?'
'Who, who's speaking?'
The man's confused mind briefly returned to clarity, and he regained some of his senses.
"Do you have any last wishes?"
The voice slowly echoed.
'Last wishes...?'
It was only then that the man realized he had already died.
He suddenly felt an overwhelming sadness and despair.
He was just a kid, he hadn't experienced the beauty of life yet...
After a long silence, this despair was consumed by boundless anger. His voice rang out, filled with murderous intent and repression.
'I want them dead, I want those terrorists dead. And that damn superhero... I want them all to come down and accompany me in the grave!'
"Deal. Then you know what to do."
'I...'
Hearing this, the man seemed to lose the last of his strength.
His blood-soaked lips trembled slightly.
".y"
".yes."
