Confronting the Lord of the Dark Dimension

Chapter 655

Kamar-Taj's main hall.

Strange opened a portal and returned from the hospital. In the bloodied, chaotic hall, Mordo stood on the platform, looking at the Sanctum that had become utterly unrecognizable.

"She was dead." The tears on Strange's face had already been wiped away as he calmly stated the fact.

Mordo turned to look at him and said quietly, "She wasn't who I thought she was."

Strange fell silent for a moment before saying, "Her heart was complicated too."

"I know. But the Dark Dimension was even more dangerous. That was what she had warned us about from the moment we entered this Sanctum. Yet she herself drew power from the Dark Dimension to extend her life by several centuries!"

Even though the Ancient One was dead, Mordo still could not accept it.

This was a principle mages regarded as equal to life itself—the principle of the Sorcerer clan. Yet the Sorcerer Supreme who had founded Kamar-Taj had trampled upon that principle long ago.

"She did what she believed was right." Strange could only reply like this. With a soft sigh, he added, "And now she has paid the price."

"But her actions brought countless fanatics to Dormammu, and we became her pawns!" Mordo clenched his fists. What was the point of saying any more now? Everything had already become reality.

"Now isn't the time for this." Strange stared at him and earnestly urged, "We've lost the Ancient One, Kamar-Taj has been damaged, and the New York Sanctum was also attacked by Dark Mages just now after Wong left. Once all three Sanctums fall, Dormammu will be able to set foot on Earth. We need to get to the final Sanctum."

"In Hong Kong." Mordo gathered himself, raised his hand, and drew a circle to open a Magic-Portal.
