"Uh..."

Looking at Luke with bright eyes, the Ancient One ruthlessly broke the opponent's illusion.

"Atlantis has sunk from the land for nearly ten thousand years. The Central Energy Institute that was once built has long been reduced to ruins and destroyed."

Sorcerer Supreme's blow did not make Luke feel depressed.

He waved his hand, indicating that it was not a big problem.

If we can get specific drawings or related technology from Atlantis, we can let Howard make another copy.

I believe that his genius brain is enough to ignore the existence of technical barriers.

"Then how are Namor going to start it?"

Luke frowned slightly, thinking about this question.

The height of the giant armor is equivalent to two Empire State Buildings. Even though the materials are different, it cannot be directly compared with reinforced concrete.

But no matter what, the weight won't be much different.

Namor can't move this big guy!

"That's why I waited until now."

The Ancient One shrugged and said calmly, "I'm also very curious, so I want to know the answer."

"I thought you had everything under control and were not in a hurry..."

Luke complained subconsciously.

Compared with the strict and rigid image of Sorcerer Supreme in the comics, this one seems to be much more lively, a little informal, and casual.

The Major General's attitude has changed from awe and respect at the beginning to relaxation and indifference.

"As a Sorcerer Supreme, I have indeed read many books, seen many things, and experienced many wonderful experiences that many people have never experienced in their lives... but I am not an omniscient and omnipotent God."

The Ancient One was very honest and said confidently, "Besides, knowledge is a part of life experience and a way of viewing everything in the world, rather than a high-profile decoration or an arrogant reason to be superior to others."

"There's no shame in not knowing the answer to a question."

"As expected of Sorcerer Supreme, his ideological realm is different from ordinary people."

Luke praised without sincerity.

This has to change the father and son of the Stark Family, especially Iron Man who was cursed by knowledge.

Their criterion for distinguishing ordinary people from geniuses is whether they can communicate with themselves normally.

For example, when talking about nuclear submarines before, Captain America expressed confusion.

According to Howard's judgment, it can basically only be classified into the group of primates.

This includes Department of Defense generals, the Pentagon military officials, and all ordinary people who don't even understand classical physics.

Just as Invisible Woman complained about Mister Fantastic, the best way to attract the attention of a genius nerd is to talk to him about Quantum Mechanics.

"Then Ancient One, are you going to open a portal and let me get rid of those two unlucky guys who thought they hadn't been discovered yet?"

Luke rubbed his hands, seeming a little impatient.

"This plan is good"

The Ancient One nodded in agreement.

Just leave the disputes in the world to S.H.I.E.L.D.. She is just a bystander and joins in the fun.

Kamar-Taj, who stays in the independent world all day, is actually quite bored when Dormammu, who is Dark Dimension, comes to collect debts.

And what this young major general is best at is giving people new tricks.

"It's just——"

The Ancient One paused, looked at the giant armor that was two thousand feet high in the screen, and asked curiously, "After Namor opens that Ultimate Weapon, can you get rid of it quickly?"

"The operation of Continental Shelf Shaker is probably to devour matter at a terrifying speed, forming a huge hole, and then releasing energy... According to the records of Kamar-Taj, the entire process will last four hours and cannot be stopped."

Luke raised his eyebrows, and after thinking for a moment, asked, "Then how long is the interval from startup to operation?"

He seemed to understand a little bit about Atlanteans, why he regarded Celestials's armor as the so-called Continental Shelf Shaker.

By creating a large-scale gravitational field to absorb matter, and then releasing it violently, it creates an unimaginable explosive impact, sinking North America without any pressure.

Moreover, the vibration reaction during the process can also create an amplification phenomenon similar to the "resonance effect", leading to extremely serious earthquakes and tsunamis.

"It can still be used like this..."

Luke's mind is spinning, and I can't help but admire Atlanteans's imagination and development of brains.

Maybe this is the correct way to use it?

"Less than ten seconds."

The Ancient One gives the answer.

With the rollback function of Eye of Agamotto, she has no worries about any terrible consequences that will not end well.

Since Luke won the bet, he was qualified to enter Kamar-Taj's training.

In addition, after this incident passes, Three Sanctuaries may cooperate and communicate with S.H.I.E.L.D. to a certain extent.

The Ancient One believes that it is necessary to give this major general some appropriate tests.

"I have a bold idea."

After thinking for a moment, Luke looked at the bald mage in a suit with a smile on his lips.

"Should we turn it on now?"

Namor stood in front of the so-called "Ultimate Weapon", like a tiny dust.

If he didn't know how to use it, he might be like Sebastian-Xiao, like an ant sizing up a giant whale, without any solution.

"There is no need to be so anxious. The consequences caused by Continental Shelf Shaker are extremely serious. Just like God brought down the world-destroying flood, we should gather a group of 'righteous people' in advance and let them board 'Noah's Ark', and then go to clean up this sinful world."

Sebastian's eyes rolled, his idea was to gather enough Mutants to hide in a safe place.

Then, with the help of Namor, a warning is issued to countries around the world.

If the negotiation fails, use Continental Shelf Shaker to sink North America.

After experiencing some of the power of Planetary-class Weapon, humans will naturally feel fear.

All this is just like what Third Reich did, conquering the European countries through blitzkrieg, establishing Axis of Evil, and implementing centralized rule.

Sebastian thinks he will do better than Fuhrer because the latter doesn't have such amazing weapons at his disposal like Continental Shelf Shaker.

"Take it back..."

Namor looked at the huge and cold giant "weapon" and took out a hexahedral translucent crystal from his pocket.

This is the key to activating Continental Shelf Shaker, which can activate the energy system inside.

After that, you can drive this Ultimate Weapon like a spaceship.

After a few minutes, the giant armor that had been lying motionless glowed with wisps of soft light.

Energy begins to move along the circuit, and a successful drive is imminent.

Just when Namor was excited, sparks of magic suddenly lit up in the deep, dark depths of the ocean floor.

Sizzle! Sizzle!

As if cutting space, invisible waves rippled slightly, and the circular passage slowly opened.

"Two of you, are you surprised or surprised?"

Luke walked out with a smile and turned on Bio-Force Field to discharge the incoming sea water.

The extremely terrifying huge water pressure exerted invisible gravity on him.

Squeezing in from all directions, beating every muscle fiber.

But the major general remained calm and composed, without feeling the slightest pressure.

"Finally we meet, Mr. Shaw."

Looking at Sebastian-Xiao, whose face was dull, and Namor, who was horrified, Luke showed a kind smile, "Life is always full of ups and downs. Falling down just before success is not a good feeling, right?"

"I didn't tell anyone..."

Namor's eyes were full of doubts, and he subconsciously looked at Sebastian-Xiao.

He couldn't figure out how Superman appeared?

At this time, the other party should be at Liberty Island!

If there is a mole, excluding myself, it can only be Mr. Shaw!

Sebastian also looked at Namor with suspicion. This guy has never been reliable in his work, and maybe the news will leak out.

"I'm in a hurry. The old debts between you two will be settled one by one."

Luke Too lazy to talk nonsense, he raised his right arm, and his wrist was wrapped with an emerald ring made of gleaming green light.

"Za Warudo!"

he shouted silently.

The moment the thought flashed through, the flow of time stopped.

Under the deep sea, on this giant island, it seems like someone has pressed the pause button.

Even the water flow could not move, let alone Namor and Sebastian-Xiao.

They were like lifelike statues, standing there blankly, with expressions on their faces clearly reflecting shock, confusion and a hint of fear.

Luke takes a step forward and Bio-Force Field fully unfolds.

Trying to wrap up Celestial Armor lying on the island, covering half of the inner ring of the city.

"It's not that wide, but it's enough."

Luke stretched out his two hands, pushed himself up, and at the same time supported the motionless giant armor with his shoulders.

"One second!"

He counted down silently.

Time paused, only nine seconds.

If Namor and Sebastian-Xiao were allowed to resume operations, they would definitely not sit back and watch Celestials's armor be taken away.

"Two seconds!"

The muscles of Luke's arms were taut and veins burst out.

The tall body was like an erupting active volcano, spewing out extremely terrifying power.

Boom!

Clear cracks appeared on the ground, spreading like spider webs.

Three seconds.

Luke's footing collapsed.

But the giant armor remained unchanged.

After the second template upgrade, his power is growing at an alarming rate every day.

Before, I could only push the aircraft carrier, but now I can lift it with one hand.

This shows how fast Superman Template has grown.

The scariest thing is that this is far from the limit of Luke.

Now, he tried his best to lift this giant armor.

Four seconds.

Five seconds.

Six seconds.

Seven seconds.

For Luke, he has never felt that the flow of time can be so slow.

Every muscle fiber is being squeezed for strength, and the Stellar Energy accumulated in the body pours out like a flood from a bursting embankment.

The terrifying force even forms a gravitational field similar to that of a celestial body, pulling the frozen sea water.

"Get up!"

At the eighth second, the giant armor was finally shaken.

As time paused, the dust stirred up slowly floated, and the surrounding seawater was stirred like semi-solidified liquid, showing a strange visual phenomenon.

The sparks of magic were beating, and the circular passage that could accommodate the giant armor was quickly opened.

Sweat was dripping from his forehead, as if Luke was on the verge of reaching his limit, he struggled to lift the extremely heavy giant armor.

With every step he took, the earth groaned.

Nine seconds.

Time flows.

Boom! Boom!

The deep and dark seabed seemed to have just experienced a terrible earthquake. The island was roaring and large areas of ruins collapsed.

Violent dust surged up, and the solidified water stirred violently.

Namor and Sebastian-Xiao, who had recovered their ability to think, stared at the open space in front of them in a daze.

Where is my Ultimate Weapon?

Where did such a big Planetary-class Weapon go!?
