"Who do you share your name with, do you really have to have the same name as the USA?"
Aron complained a little.
However, after listening to America's story, Aron roughly understood what had happened.
In a word, summary!
The real MCU cinematic universe has now reached the plot of the movie Doctor Strange 2!
Speaking of which.
Aron discovered a misunderstanding he had been making all along.
He had originally thought that the progress of the plot in most multiverses was similar.
But the results were very different...
If not for the butterfly effect, normally speaking, the 19999-FL universe wouldn't have even started at this point.
But the real cinematic universe 19999 had already entered Phase Four, and Thanos' first Snap had already happened.
"Hey, speaking of Thanos, did I forget something?"
Aron slightly furrowed his brows.
It seemed as if he had missed something during the previous cosmic collision crisis?
But after thinking for a long time, he couldn't remember, so he simply gave up.
Whatever, let it go with the flow!
Nothing to worry about.
(Thanos from Apokolips: No, I'm still imprisoned.)
(Darkseid from the highest dimension: The three great ones, stop arguing, let me go, I'm really in a hurry.)
"So, America, you're saying that you're being hunted by Wanda from other universes?"
"Can you tell us more about that?" Aron asked.
Because judging by the depiction in the movie,
the Wanda of the main cinematic universe 19999 should have mastered the dreamwalking technique, which can affect the multiverse.
That's why Wanda in the movie is so persistent in chasing and killing America, in order to seize the ability of interdimensional teleportation that the girl possesses.
But now.
Judging by America's appearance...
It seemed that Wanda had already mastered the ability to teleport across universes.
"Could it be dimensional tearing?"
Aron remembered another forbidden technique he had seen in the Darkhold.
It was a kind of black magic that forcibly travels through the multiverse by destroying the barrier of one's own universe.
In any case, it's not a good thing.
"I don't know how she did it."
"Not long ago, I was randomly traveling through the multiverse as usual, trying to find my way home, and then I arrived in the Defenders universe."
"Defenders universe?"
Hearing this unfamiliar name, Aron was a bit confused.
Aren't Marvel's parallel universes all differentiated by numbers?
"I made up that name blindly."
America saw Alaric's doubt and explained.
"I don't know what the universe number is."
"I name them myself, and they're all named after the characteristics of those universes."
"This Defenders universe is because there are no Avengers there, but instead there's an organization called the Defenders, whose members are Strange, Hulk, Namor, and Silver Surfer..."
America explained the origin of the Defenders universe name.
From that, it was also evident that the multiverse was truly strange.
Anything bizarre could happen.
"And then?" Aron asked.
"Then not long after I arrived in the Defenders universe, Wanda started chasing me."
"Strange from the Defenders universe, well, I call him Defender Strange."
"He did everything he could to protect me from Wanda."
"But in the end…"
"He didn't make it."
When America said that, she looked a bit downcast.
Aron listened.
He carefully recalled the movie plot.
Most likely, at this point, America should, after several cosmic jumps, finally arrive in the main 19999 universe, and then meet the Strange we know.
"Then how did you come to our world?" Aron asked.
"I… didn't mean to… I switched randomly, and as soon as I arrived, I was already…"
Instead of continuing, America turned and looked at Wanda.
Alaric already knew what would come next.
So...
Now the question was what to do with America.
If they kept her, Wanda from the main cinematic universe would chase her sooner or later.
Although that wasn't a big problem.
Wasn't she just another crazy beauty?
Dealing with Wanda?
Aron already had plenty of experience with that!
"America, if you want to leave, you can go right now, we won't stop you."
"Of course, it's fine if you want to stay."
"It's safe enough."
"If Wanda from universe 19999 comes after you, I think we have the ability to protect you…"
Aron spoke very generously.
Definitely not because the girl's looks were quite decent, ahem.
"Wait?"
"Universe 19999?"
Who would've thought that just as Aron finished his sentence,
Wanda, who was calmly eating her corn in beside them, suddenly frowned.
Because she remembered something very important.
"When I was training some time ago, a voice often appeared by my ear."
"It asked me if I had children…"
"I said I didn't, and then it stopped looking for me."
Wanda told her story from a while ago.
Originally, that Wanda who approached her and asked if she had children in a parallel universe, seemed to have come from universe 19999!
"That's astral projection."
"One of the most common ways of communication for life in the multiverse."
"It shows that Wanda is quite well-behaved."
The Ancient One explained.
Compared to the black magic of dreamwalking and violently possessing other bodies,
astral projection was undoubtedly much more decent.
When the Ancient One first traveled through the multiverse and made friends, this was the magic she most often used.
"If the other side contacted you through astral projection,"
"That means the other side isn't too malicious, maybe you can try to respond."
Hearing the Ancient One's words,
Wanda looked at Aron.
Seeing that Aron also nodded, Wanda immediately used chaos magic to perform astral projection.
Since she had already made contact once before,
Wanda easily connected with the Wanda from the Marvel-19999 universe.
Something like a phone call… a return call?
Soon.
A semi-transparent figure appeared before everyone, in a lotus position, cross-legged, floating in midair.
Facial features almost identical to Wanda's.
Just a few years older.
Her expression was much more worn out.
"Why are you looking for me?"
The semi-transparent figure opened her eyes.
It was Wanda from the cinematic universe we know.
Only by now, she had already experienced Westview, her family shattered, and her loved ones lost.
Wanda in a moment of mental breakdown.
