Chapter 99 - 96

Su Chen watched the scene before him with interest.

The mighty guardians of Earth.

The Sorcerer Supreme of Kamar-Taj.

The Ancient One, who spent her entire life teaching the Templars to fight Dormammu and prevent the Dark Dimension's demons from completely descending upon Earth, was actually devouring the dark power belonging to Dormammu.

Um.....

This is absolutely stunning.

This is like a person's veil being completely removed, revealing the face of an enemy.

A mocking smile appeared on Su Chen's cold and indifferent face.

"And you dare to criticize me with such high-sounding words."

"It seems that even you, this saint who stands on a moral high ground, are not so clean."

"The enemy that Kamar-Taj has been fighting against for generations is Dormammu, the demon god of the dark dimension, but the leader who is fighting against all of this is absorbing Dormammu's power."

Having already invaded the mage's mind not long ago and having read a great deal of knowledge, Su Chen directly pointed it out.

He laughed.

At this moment, Su Chen truly felt a sense of joy.

Yes, it was pleasant.

A person who was just criticizing from a moral high ground has had his mask torn off, his persona collapsed, and he has become a hypocrite in everyone's eyes. This made Su Chen feel extremely comfortable.

"If I remember correctly, the reason Kaecilius betrayed Kamar-Taj was because he discovered that you were unwilling to teach how to become stronger."

"Your once most prized disciple has discovered that you are secretly absorbing dark energy."

"Perhaps at that moment, he realized that the way to become stronger was to join Dormammu."

Su Chen began to finish off the enemy.

This is not him spouting baseless nonsense.

After all, Casillas had previously made some related statements to the other temple mages with great confidence.

Based on the information at hand, we can deduce some of the answers.

Wow!!

One stone stirs up a thousand waves, and an uproar ensued.

Enraged, bewildered, confused, bewildered...

"This..."

"Is it true, Ancient One?"

The group of Temple Sorcerers stared at the beloved Ancient One, the Sorcerer Supreme, with utter confusion.

"That's not right! Sorcerer Supreme, how could you absorb Dormammu's power?"

"Exactly, isn't this behavior the same as that of the Dormammu believers?"

"Even if you have your reasons, the power of the Dark Dimension is extremely distorting to the human heart and will. Sooner or later, you will be completely devoured by Dormammu's power."

"That's impossible! Tell everyone that you didn't devour the power of darkness."

Words rose and fell in succession.

Under the influence of the dark energy absorbed into her body, the Ancient One, the Sorcerer Supreme, was in excellent condition. Even her pale complexion had completely improved, and her overall energy and spirit were much better than before the battle.

But at this moment, he faced criticism, incomprehension, and angry accusations from all around him.

The Ancient One, however, had a dark expression.

"It's true."

Her words immediately disappointed many of the temple mages who still held some hope in their hearts.

Even Baron Mordo, who always adhered to the principles of Kamar-Taj and believed in following the natural order, clenched his fists.

"impossible!"

The more reverence he had in the past, the angrier he was at this moment.

He had also realized why the Ancient One did this.

"Is it to prolong your human life? After all, a mortal can't live that long. Even the so-called gods of Earth have their day of death. So you're using Dormammu's power to extend your life indefinitely?"

Baron Mordo was furious.

"Yes."

Ancient One sighed helplessly; the Sorcerer Supreme appeared utterly dejected at this moment.

Despite her usual kindness and gentleness, she decided to give everyone an explanation.

"I don't have much time left to live, so I have to rely on external forces. It's all to continue to protect Kamar-Taj and this Earth."

That was her original intention.

As a guardian of the Earth, she did indeed feel a pang of longing, wanting to try and live a little longer in the final moments of her life.

Of course, another reason she couldn't say directly was the issue of her future successor.

Casillas was once her most prized disciple, but he fell into a dark abyss from which he could not extricate himself.

Baron Mordo, however, was stubborn, old-fashioned, inflexible, and lacked adaptability.

None of them are qualified future Supreme Masters.

The successor she was looking for was still working as a surgeon in a hospital, and his opportunity had not yet arrived at the right time.

so...

She wants to live longer.

"That's too risky, Sorcerer Supreme. You're playing with fire."

"That's right. People keep coming one after another to devour the power of darkness. They all think they have mastered Dormammu's power, but in the end, none of them are spared from having their minds corrupted and their will twisted."

"This is completely contrary to the beliefs that teach us."

Many monks shook their heads and sighed, feeling deeply disappointed.

Some people even considered leaving.

At that moment, everyone felt that the pillar supporting them had completely collapsed.

Compared to the Dormammu followers who blindly worshipped him, their feelings toward the Ancient One were not quite as devout, but they were still very grateful, respectful, and reverent toward him.

But now, some people inevitably have developed a rift in their hearts and find it hard to accept this reason.

Su Chen crossed his arms and watched with interest as they were abandoned by everyone.

Seeing the Earth Guardian's persona crumble and his inner turmoil and pain, he genuinely felt a sense of pleasure.

After all, it's astonishing that such a highly respected and revered master, who was just standing on moral high ground criticizing himself for arbitrarily altering reality, could suddenly have his image shattered.

He actually thought it was a pretty good experience.

"So you have the nerve to accuse me of altering reality?"

Su Chen stepped forward at this moment.

A mocking smile appeared on his cold and indifferent face as he said, "Now I can fully suspect that your mind has been completely corrupted by Dormammu's will."

"So, for the safety of the entire Earth, for the safety of all humanity, for the safety of your Kamar-Taj, and even for the integrity of Earth's magic circle, why don't you expel yourself from Earth?"

These words were spoken with great righteousness and awe.

Full of justice.

They even directly criticized their opponents from a moral high ground.

Su Chen's cold words were like blades piercing the heart of the Ancient One.

"you..."

The Supreme Master Gu Yi's face darkened with anger, and he immediately realized that the other party was mocking and ridiculing his behavior.

"Damn bastard..."

At the same time, Baron Mordo was also furious, because he naturally understood the hidden meaning in the other party's words.

After all, he had previously suspected that the other party was possessed by an evil god, and for the safety of the earth, he wanted to completely eliminate the other party, so he led a group of mages to ambush them.

Su Chen's words now indeed perfectly matched the arrogant demeanor of the people in front of him. (A sarcastic remark.)
