Ancient One's power far exceeded the Avengers' imagination.
The instant Nick Fury gave the order to attack, Ancient One's hands had already traced profound, mysterious patterns.
She did not attack directly. Instead, she slammed both hands onto the cold metal floor beneath her feet.
"Buzz—!"
The entire world seemed like the surface of water struck by a stone. The scenery twisted, folded, and flipped violently! Walls became ceilings, ceilings shattered into passageways leading to endless abysses, and the once-flat ground rose like broken mirrors, dividing and isolating the unprepared Avengers.
Mirror Dimension!
This was the supreme spell used by Kamar-Taj's Sorcerer Supreme to isolate reality and prevent battles from affecting the innocent world.
The Avengers were instantly trapped within it, and the physical laws they knew became fragmented and distorted.
Captain America tried to run, only to find himself moving across a vertical wall as though it were level ground; Cyclops' shockwave pierced the "floor," only to refract back from the "sky" overhead, nearly injuring his allies; the lightning Storm summoned twisted and wound through the distorted space, making it difficult to lock onto a target.
"What the hell is this place?!" Fury's furious roar echoed through the inverted space, yet its source could not be found.
However, not everyone was completely trapped by this spatial trickery.
Thor, who had participated in countless cosmic wars, roared as Mjolnir erupted with lightning. Pure divine power forcibly stabilized his body to some extent. He swung Mjolnir and charged at Ancient One.
Captain Marvel, Carol, was even more direct. The energy around her boiled to its peak as she violently tore apart the distorted spatial structure with raw energy, transforming into a streak of light. Though she moved later, she arrived first, joining Thor in a pincer attack!
