After the sudden appearance of the green magic formation that just enveloped the patio below and the surrounding five-story area above the unfinished building, the area enveloped by it was like being isolated to a magical space where everything stood still.
This stillness is not the stillness of space, but the stop of time! When Lin Rui’s life was finally threatened with death, the Ancient One, who had been hiding behind him, finally made a move. Plus, it’s the direct use of one of the Infinity Stone. Because there is no better way to pull Lin Rui back from the brink of death than the Time Stone of Ancient One.
Buzzing~
The green magic array above the patio was playing its role, and the battle below, which had been fiercely fought earlier, now abruptly came to a halt. The Dark Elf Elite warrior who was surrounded by a dozen Iron Mans still maintained the pose of throwing out the short blade in his hand, and the cruelty and wantonness of resolving the enemy was emerging in his bloodshot eyes.
The dozens of Iron Men trying to stop him were bombarding him with high-powered bullets, micro missiles, and laser beams. However, while the time stood still, these attacks were stopped in midair, and even the blasts of fire and blast that had already struck the Dark Elf warriors were magically stopped.
As for Evans, he is running in the direction of Lin Rui. In the stillness of time, his mouth is wide open with terror and his eyes are wide with disbelief, all of which indicate his anxiety and extreme worry.
Finally, there is Lin Rui, because the Iron Man suit he is armed with is directly split open by the short blade. At this moment, the broken parts of the Iron Man suit beside Lin Rui remain flying in all directions. In the middle, Lin Rui is in a coma, looking as if suffering from the short blade that has been inserted into his back.
The blade that should have pierced Lin Rui’s heart and killed him at this time also stopped. The short blade that had sunk into his back could not move any further, and only a small puncture wound has been created in Lin Rui’s heart by that blade.
Phoo~
In this time-static space, a figure suddenly appeared beside Lin Rui out of thin air. This person is dressed casually in a retro style and sporting a simple beard, he looked young but his eyes showed signs of age. He is the Ancient One, the Great Sorcerer that had caused this moment has finally revealed himself.
The right hand of Ancient One, which appeared out of thin air, is now open, and there is a small green phalanx in front of the palm slowly running. And on his chest, a light green gleam showed some color.
Looking at the situation where time was still due to his hands, Ancient One’s deep eyes also revealed a trace of emotion. Seeing Lin Rui, whose body was full of blood and a short blade had inserted in his back, a faint relief seemed to flash in Ancient One’s eyes.
“You are still too young! Even if you have a lot of secrets, they are enough to make you grow up to a point that I can’t predict. But now, every experience you have is full of thorns and danger, I would only take one careless mistake and everything you have done would be gone.” Ancient One said inexplicably as he looked at Lin Rui.
Although Ancient One knew that Lin Rui couldn’t hear what he was saying now, he didn’t need Lin Rui to hear them either. These words were just some of Ancient One’s feelings about Lin Rui’s recent experiences.
As the only person who knows the origins of Lin Rui, Ancient One pays very high attention to him, otherwise, he would not have been able to come here in time when Lin Rui was on brink of his death.
In his previous meetings with Lin Rui, Ancient One has seen what Lin Rui can do, and it is also clear that he does regard himself as a member of this world and wants to lead the earth towards the big stage of the universe.
So, even if Lin Rui, an alien soul with a hidden secret, has been bouncing around doing all kinds of things, Ancient One still did not intervene and let him do as he pleases.
But this time, Lin Rui’s actions finally lead him into this life-threatening situation. The “Ancient One” would not have used the Time Stone otherwise.
It should be noted that although the six Infinity stones are gems of infinite power, they are also the products of the whole universe and play a subtle and inexplicable role in maintaining the stability of the universe. Therefore, if he doesn’t need to then the Ancient One would not use the Time Stone. After all, he is strong enough to handle most things himself.
This time Lin Rui’s current situation forced Ancient One to use the Time Stone to rescue him. Obviously, Ancient One felt that Lin Rui could not survive the crisis by himself this time.
After seeing Lin Rui’s situation at this time, Ancient One’s sight stayed a few times on the Dark Elf Elite fighter who was surrounded and being attacked by more than a dozen Iron Mans not far away.
“The Dark Elves? Are they planning to do something again?” Even the Ancient One doesn’t know why this Dark Elf had appeared here.
Although Ancient One is powerful, he is not a god and cannot be omniscient and omnipotent. The Dark Elves are united with Frost Giant to force Asgard’s army back, and then Malekith himself led the most elite team into the Asgard forbidden area to search for Aether, which in itself was a top-secret matter.
If Ancient One knew about it then he would not let this happen. Although Ancient One would not care about the Aether, he would not let it fall into Dark Elf’s hands. When the Dark Elves had fought against the Nine Realms last time, Ancient One had not inherited the position of Sorcerer Supreme, but he knew the ambition of the Dark Elves.
“No matter what the Dark Elves wants to do this time, it would be nice to not let you succeed anyway.” The Ancient One spoke indifferently while raising his right hand..
Buzzing~
In the space where time was stopped, only the Ancient One could move freely. As he raised his right hand, the miniature green magic circle began to rotate. Then, a magical scene happened!
Huhuhu!
With the rotation of the green magic circle in Ancient One’s right hand, more magical things happened in this area where time was stopped. The various objects that had been stationary started to move again, but this time they fell back along their previous trajectory!
The whole space was like a movie rewinding itself, except for Ancient One, everything else was going back quickly along the trajectory of motion! Time rewind! This is a very abnormal ability of Time Stone!
Rustling!
Under the effect of going backward in time, everything is returning against the rules of physics. Therefore, the short blade that had been inserted into Lin Rui’s back quickly retreated by itself. After the short blade went out of Lin Rui’s back, Lin Rui’s heart that had been pierced with a small wound was also recovering in the reverse of time.
