Although the United States has discovered something strange outside the Solar System, they have no solutions whatsoever.

After all, the distance is too far; even if they wanted to do something, they simply couldn't.

So the United States high-level officials kept stalling for the third day.

On this day, Voyager 1, located at the edge of the Solar System, sent back its latest photos.

That very evening, the United States activated its highest level of alert and convened a meeting of world leaders.

After seeing the Space Fortress and Spaceship clearly, United States finally put aside all their arrogance and prejudice and chose to face the Aliens together with people all over the world.

But what can humanity, who can't even leave Blue Star, do to fight against this unprecedented enemy?

Therefore, this meeting was destined to be fruitless.

The weather in the northern hemisphere of Blue Star is gradually getting hot.

However, even inside the Kamar-Taj Palace, located on a mountaintop and where temperatures are low year-round, everyone was still wearing thick clothes.

At this moment, the sun slowly rose in the sky.

Doctor Strange, dressed in thick black clothes and wearing a red Cloak of Levitation, stood on a high platform, holding a three-finger-thick metal book in his hand.

On the surface of the book is a circle with strange Runes, and wisps of very faint yet very pure magical energy float around it.

It is the very artifact that all Sorcerers dream of: the Book of Vishanti.

The Book of Vishanti appears to have countless pages, containing the most powerful known white magic and defensive magic in the world.

However, the spells recorded in it can never be used for offense, only for defense.

Below the platform, Wanda, Quicksilver, and numerous Sorcerers were present.

Because Thanos didn't use the Mind Stone to allow Loki to invade Blue Star, Ultron naturally couldn't have been born.

Without Ultron, there would have been no Battle of Sokovia, and Quicksilver wouldn't have been killed by a bullet.

However, the plot here is completely different from the movie.

Because at this moment, Wanda was holding a tin book that was also three fingers thick, but which was filled with a dark aura.

It is none other than the infamous Darkhold.

As for why Wanda and Quicksilver were hanging out with Doctor Strange, it was naturally because Doctor Strange approached them.

They were originally in Hydra's laboratory, but a few days ago Doctor Strange suddenly stormed in with a group of Sorcerers and took them away.

So they started hanging out with Doctor Strange.

Next, Doctor Strange took them to various places to search for treasures and meet all sorts of people.

The Book of Vishanti and the Darkhold are what I've gained in the past few days.

After a while, Doctor Strange closed his eyes and began to use the Time Stone.

Streams of green energy surrounded him, suspending him in the air.

He is looking for more answers from the only chance of victory he saw last time.

When the people around Doctor Strange saw this, they immediately fell silent.

Fourteen days ago, Doctor Strange told them that he saw Blue Star facing an unprecedented catastrophe, in which even all of humanity would perish.

Although initially people had some doubts about the title of Sorcerer Supreme but dared not speak out, they began to believe it wholeheartedly afterward.

Because Doctor Strange has fulfilled one prophecy after another.

This has caused widespread concern.

Suddenly, a figure appeared in the sky, accompanied by streaks of Lightning.

A moment later, a figure descended upon the crowd, accompanied by Lightning.

It was Thor with his hair cut short.

At this moment, he was wearing scale armor, holding the Stormbreaker, and exuding a powerful aura. He looked very handsome, a far cry from his previous roguish self.

After gaining Odinforce, he grew stronger day by day.

Although this speed decreased after reaching the Skyfather-level, it did not stop.

But at this moment, his eyes were filled with anger and regret.

He had just gone to the Dwarf Star and realized he was too late.

This made him feel extremely regretful and annoyed, and he also felt very guilty.

If it weren't for me, the Dwarves might not have gone extinct. If I had gotten there sooner, I might have been able to save them.

At this moment, he seemed to have a destructive impulse that he desperately needed to vent.

However, since Odin's death, he has matured a lot, so he managed to suppress this impulse.

A moment later, he noticed that Doctor Strange was using the Time Stone, so he immediately concealed all his presence and became like Ordinary Person.

It must be said that the blow of losing both parents and the destruction of one's country can indeed make a person grow up very quickly.

Suddenly, Wanda came to Thor's side and asked softly, "What's wrong? I see darkness in your heart."

Because of the suppression provided by Doctor Strange 'Book of Vishanti, the Darkhold did not affect her much.

Moreover, having not experienced her brother's death, nor fallen in love with the Robot Vision, her heart remained pure at this point.

At most, he only harbored petty thoughts of destroying United States and avenging his parents.

Faced with Wanda's petty schemes, the Darkhold naturally couldn't corrupt her in the short term.

Thor simply smiled at Wanda's concern and remained silent.

He didn't want this innocent and kind girl to bear the burden of his own experiences and suffering.

At this moment, a large, fat man named Wang, dressed in a yellow Sorcerers's robe and with a face resembling Maitreya Buddha, walked over.

"Mr. Thor, please come with me."

Thor glanced at Doctor Strange, who was still observing the Timeline, then nodded and followed the King into the palace.

After a while, the king opened a series of mechanisms and led Thor to the depths of the palace.

Reaching a large gate covered in mysterious Runes, Wang stopped and said, "Master is waiting for you inside."

After saying that, he left without looking back.

As the senior disciple of Kamar-Taj and the number one person after Doctor Strange, he cannot be away for too long.

Thor took two steps forward, but before he could knock, the Runes on the door lit up, and then it slowly opened.

A moment later, a bald woman appeared inside the house; Ancient One.

At this moment, the Ancient One was not wearing a yellow Sorcerers's robe, but a black Cloak filled with Dark Energy.

If you look closely, you can see a strange red mark on the Ancient One's fair and lustrous forehead.

This mark gives off an impression of darkness and evil, and those with weak wills might even become Dormammu's Believers on the spot.

Clearly, the Dark Energy she absorbed had reached a critical point.

It's estimated that it won't be long before it's swallowed by darkness.

Thor stepped into the house and immediately felt uncomfortable and uneasy all over.

With a "bang!", the door slammed shut.

"You've come..."

After saying that, Ancient One revealed a sinister smile.
