Stark was fighting and searching during the battle, and after a while he came to Doctor Strange: "You said we have a one in fourteen million chance of winning."
A palm cannon shot away an approaching minion. Stark looked at Doctor Strange and asked, "Are you talking about this time?"
At this time, even if five years have passed, Stark still remembers how the guy in front of him vowed that he would do anything to protect the time stone, let alone sacrifice Stark.
For this reason, he would not hesitate to kill Stark with his own hands.
The result was that this man, when he was about to be killed by Thanos, took the initiative to hand over the Time Stone that he had hidden with magic until Thanos could not find it.
It wasn't to change Dr. Strange's way of survival, but to change himself, the person he vowed to sacrifice, to survive.
"I'm not sure either."
Surprisingly, Doctor Strange did not pretend to be mysterious and say "if I had told him, it wouldn't have happened" like in the original plot.
"What?"
Stark frowned, wondering why this time was not the one of victory. This guy who could not only spy on, but even play with time with the help of the Time Stone, would choose to hand over the Time Stone on his own initiative?
Doesn't this guy look like someone who would be afraid of death to offer a treasure?
And even though he was ‘offering treasure’ in the first place, it was not to save his own life.
If it weren't for the one in fourteen million victory, wouldn't it make sense for him to do what he did in the first place?
Doctor Strange looked at the confusion in Stark's eyes and pointed at Guo Dong: "He is not among the 14 million possibilities I have seen."
"What?"
Stark's eyes widened in surprise.
Although he wasn't very familiar with and didn't get along with this guy who was playing tricks, he was still very sure of this guy's abilities.
"But the moment I handed the Time Stone to Thanos, I took another look at the future."
Before Stark could continue to ask in surprise, Doctor Strange continued to explain: "That time, I saw two new possibilities."
Stark was stunned. His clever IQ allowed him to guess something instantly. He pointed at Guo Dong and said, "Are those two times related to him?"
Doctor Strange nodded.
"So... what was the result of those two times?"
Stark frowned slightly and immediately asked.
It is impossible to ask for the results of 14 million times, and it is impossible to answer them one by one. But if there are only two results, you can still ask.
What's more, if these two results were not very special or important, Doctor Strange would not have specifically stated that he saw two new possibilities. He would only say that he saw the one with Guo Dong, and they were victorious.
Even if there are other possibilities, under the current circumstances, such a result is undoubtedly the most suitable to boost military morale.
"Once, he killed Thanos and all of Thanos' men."
Doctor Strange raised his head and saw that most of the Necromancers had been transformed into Transformers. Although he still wanted to continue, he didn't know why he put away the magical metal cube and placed it in the void.
Xiushou looked up at the dark clouds of gunfire in the sky...or rather, some existence above the dark clouds of gunpowder smoke.
"And the other time, Thanos and all of us here died because of him."
Doctor Strange's words made Stark's heart skip a beat, but then Doctor Strange's words made his heart relax a little: "Except for you and your wife."
Pepper is still alive?
Stark subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief and nodded. As long as Pepper was alive, that was better than anything else.
Then he realized that Doctor Strange specifically explained this point, just to persuade him to influence Guo Dong and try to make the situation they are about to face now a happy one for everyone instead of a lose-lose situation for the second one.
And Stark also understands this and can guess why.
Isn’t it because of myself at another time and space node?
Otherwise, why is it that the one who survives is not Ant-Man who can turn into an ant and hide, nor Doctor Strange, who can open a portal or mirror space to leave here, nor Brother Hammer, who is a god.
Even though they were also wearing steel armor, why were only himself and Pepper alive?
Rhodes and Spider-Man, one's protection and fire-carrying capacity are far higher than the armor of the two of them, and one's flexibility and dodge ability are far greater than that of the two of them, but looking at the meaning of Doctor Strange's words... they are also dead.
?
"Then what's the difference between these two times?"
Stark was silent for a long time, then took a deep breath and asked directly about the most critical point.
Since there are people who should be able to survive more than the couple, but they all die, it means that this is definitely under the control of Guo Dong, at least it is directly related to some of his choices.
"There's no difference."
Unexpectedly, Doctor Strange actually shook his head, and then looked up at the sky like Guo Dong: "I only saw that both times there were endless thunder and lightning falling from the sky, killing everyone on Thanos' side or on both sides of us.
They were all reduced to ashes, and nothing was left.”
Stark was stunned for a moment, then frowned: "Thunder and lightning?"
He turned around and found Brother Hammer: "Is it related to Thor?"
No wonder Stark didn't think of Brother Hammer immediately. After all, Brother Hammer is the God of Thunder. When talking about thunder and lightning, he must be the first thing that comes to mind.
"Saul, come here for a moment."
Stark thought for a moment and immediately called Brother Hammer over.
"What's up?"
After a while, Brother Zhui landed in front of the two of them: "What are you doing here?"
Pointing to the surroundings: "Everyone is fighting, and you are actually chatting here?"
Stark glared at him angrily, then briefly recounted the conversation between the two to him, and then asked him: "As the God of Thunder, what do you think about this matter?"
After hearing Stark's retelling of the conversation between the two and knowing what they might face later, Brother Hammer frowned: "Thunder and lightning?"
Brother Hammer pointed at the big comma with his axe: "Is it the same thunder and lightning as that dragon?"
While he was talking, a clone of Big Comma, who was not far away, used the underworld thunder to destroy an alien fort that was continuously bombarding.
After half a day, the number of Leviathan whales was no longer that large, so some of them changed their targets and began to target some large targets on the ground, such as dark gorillas and war turrets.
"Not really."
Doctor Strange shook his head: "Some of the thunder and lightning I saw were normal colors. Those were the first thunder and lightning, but later they turned into red, gold and other colors of thunder and lightning..."
"Red thunder and lightning?"
Brother Hammer suddenly interrupted Doctor Strange.
"That's right, red lightning."
Doctor Strange nodded, confirmed Brother Hammer's doubts, and asked: "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with the red thunder and lightning?"
Brother Zhui frowned: "Are those red thunder and lightning more powerful than other thunder and lightning, at least more powerful than those of normal colors? And they also contain terrifying flame capabilities?"
Doctor Strange's eyes lit up: "How do you know?"
He finally understood the reason why Stark called Brother Hammer over directly.
As expected, Brother Hammer knows better than them about thunder and lightning.
Even though he once became the God of Hammers and Axes, he is still the serious God of Thunder.
"...Stark."
Brother Hammer pondered for a long time, then looked at Stark and asked: "Do you know where his abilities came from? Is he born with it, or did he suddenly possess it?"
Stark pondered for a moment, frowned slightly, and said with some uncertainty: "It doesn't seem to be the case. If I remember correctly, someone seemed to have mentioned it before, saying that the ability was acquired through training, and that he would be training it soon.
To the point of becoming a god.”
“Exercise to become a god?”
Brother Zhui's eyes were full of doubts, and then he remembered something: "I once accidentally saw that in an era older than ancient times, there used to be a special group of gods. They could transform themselves from mortals, from animals, and even from ancient times.
From a plant, he slowly became stronger and eventually became a god."
Brother Hammer finally remembered what another Thor had also remembered at another time point: "But those people left long ago and went to other dimensions. Even as far away as my grandfather Bol, and
In the era when the dark elves were at war, this tribe of gods had already become an ancient legend with almost no records."
"Did he meet those people in other dimensions?"
This is the only thing that is possible in Brother Chui's opinion.
"These are not important at the moment. What is important is that you know what those thunder and lightning are about?"
Doctor Strange interrupted Brother Hammer's doubts: "In the picture I saw, whether it was all the people who killed Thanos, or all of us and Thanos died, they were all struck by those strange thunder and lightning.
Killed."
Brother Zhui was startled, then nodded thoughtfully: "You said that, and I remembered something..."
He looked up at Guo Dong: "It is said that when those people practice to transform from mortals to gods, they will experience a punishment from the universe, mainly thunder, to punish them for trying to transform from mortals to gods. If they can survive the punishment
, you can become a god, so the power of this punishment is very powerful, and few people can survive."
"Cosmic punishment?"
Stark frowned: "I seem to have heard that you and I at that time and space node once talked about something similar to what you said. There are some similar words, and it seems to be called something..."
Stark operated in the armor and called up the sounds and images recorded at that time. Then he spelled out the two words "Heavenly Tribulation" and a big comma. Ham explained what "Heavenly Tribulation" was and asked
The conversation about Thor, the God of Thunder, at the 1-year space-time node, and whether as the God of Thunder can help Guo Dong by controlling thunder and lightning, appeared in the ears of three people.
"Yes, this is it."
Brother Hammer made the final decision and determined what the thunder and lightning that killed them all was in the picture Doctor Strange saw. (To be continued)
