Reborn with Steve Stand

Chapter 72:

After listening to the Ancient One's entire statement, Fang Mo had a rough understanding.

Having his own Minecraft world, from the perspective of the Marvel universe, it was clear that he resembled a dimensional ruler.

Upon careful consideration, it seemed to hold true. After all, Fang Mo was already considered immortal. The system had previously stated that he was currently in survival mode, meaning that even if Fang Mo died, he could be resurrected in the Minecraft world. This was akin to being a dimensional rulerno matter how he was killed, he couldn't truly die. At most, he could only be expelled.

Fang Mo's personality was actually quite simple. He treated others the same way they treated him.

When playing games and encountering friendly and cute NPCs, even if he selected the wrong option, he would reload and try again. But if it was those disgusting NPCs, he would reload and find various ways to kill them a thousand times over.

Thus, what the Ancient One said was indeed correct.

If Fang Mo were to be killed in the Marvel world, then his equipment would definitely drop to the ground.

If his equipment were destroyed, it would become a life-and-death grudge. Even if Fang Mo didn't eat or drink, he would find a way to seek revenge. It would be best to make the other party regret and suffer immensely.

Initially, the Ancient One probably wanted to expel him.

But after seeing the future, she gave up on that plan.

That's why Fang Mo had to wait until the Battle of New York to meet the Ancient One.

It wasn't that the Ancient One didn't know about Fang Mo's existence, but Fang Mo was someone she couldn't afford to provoke. If he wasn't provoked, he would be a friendly player, but once provoked, he would turn into a hardcore player. Who could withstand that?

So the Ancient One was in a bit of a dilemma.

On one hand, she wanted to protect the Time Stone for Doctor Strange, but on the other hand, she was afraid that Fang Mo would destroy the world.

However, after examining the future, the Ancient One understood Fang Mo's temperament to some extent. She knew that he was the type of person who would respond in kind to how others treated him.

After much contemplation, the Ancient One decided to express friendliness to Fang Mo first.

And it turned out that she made the right decision.

When the Ancient One unsuspectingly opened the Eye of Agamotto and handed the Time Stone to Fang Mo, it was Fang Mo who became hesitant.

If it had been the Space Stone, the Mind Stone, or even the Tesseract, he wouldn't have felt this way.

After all, those things were either ownerless objects or had been taken away by others. If Fang Mo took them, it would highlight his moral high ground and his commitment to defending world peace.

But the Time Stone was different.

It was a sacred artifact passed down by the supreme sorcerers of Kamar-Taj.

Fang Mo couldn't help but feel like he was stealing someone's family heirloom hidden under a bed. He could take it, but it felt subtly unpleasant.

But regardless of his discomfort, the Time Stone was now right in front of him. The system notifications were exploding in his mind, so his top priority at the moment was to unlock the mod. As for the troublesome matters... he would deal with them later.

With that in mind, Fang Mo started studying the Time Stone in front of him.

[System Prompt: 'Time' law researched. You have gained 10% download permission for new mods.]

[System Prompt: 'Time Stone' item researched. You have gained 15% download permission for new mods.]

[System Prompt: 'Time' element researched. You have gained 10% download permission for new mods.]

"Holy Cow!"

After hearing the three consecutive system prompts, Fang Mo was instantly shocked.

This was the most outrageous item Fang Mo had ever seen. It actually activated three mods at once. This was really amazing.

Although unlocking these mods seemed troublesome, just the thought of delving into time-related mods... It was already impressive, right? Moreover, if Fang Mo remembered correctly, there was also a mod for the Infinity Gauntlet in Minecraft. Could it be unlocked by collecting the gems?

Thinking about this, Fang Mo couldn't help but feel excited.

"It seems like you've finished researching," said the Ancient One, seeing the change in Fang Mo's expression. "So, are you satisfied with the results?"

"Very satisfied," Fang Mo replied, directly handing the Time Stone back to her. "By the way, I'm interested in learning the spell to open portals."

"As the Dimensional Ruler, you should be unable to use the spells of Kamar-Taj," the Ancient One took the Time Stone and placed it back into the Eye of Agamotto. "But if you are interested in this kind of magic, you can visit Kamar-Taj. Even though it's a completely different magic system, there are some mysteries worth exploring and researching there. Of course... the condition is that you don't destroy the world."

"A guy named Nick Fury already told me something similar, and now you are reminding me again," Fang Mo rubbed his forehead. "As someone as kind as me, it's hard to believe that I could destroy the world, right?"

The Ancient One didn't say anything, she just silently looked at Fang Mo.

"Alright, alright, I won't destroy it, okay?" Fang Mo felt a bit helpless and decided to change the topic. "By the way, have you decided how many years from now you're going to die?"

"Doctor Strange will inherit my mantle. His talent is extraordinary, and he will definitely become the greatest Sorcerer Supreme," the Ancient One said. "To protect the peace of the Earth, I have been using the power of the Dark Dimension to prolong my life for too long. I have even been misunderstood by Kaecilius regarding my intentions. I think... it's time for me to fulfill my mission."

"After you die, how about joining me to explore other worlds?" Fang Mo asked. "If I encounter a world similar to Journey to the West in the future, what do you think of forming a team with Saitama, Doctor Manhattan, and others to embark on a bald pilgrimage to the West? You can become the Buddha yourself."

"What is... that?" The Ancient One hesitated. In fact, unless pushed to the brink, how could someone think about death? Especially someone like the Ancient One, who stood almost at the pinnacle of the Earth. She definitely had curiosity about the outside world. However, Fang Mo's words seemed a bit off, so she couldn't help but hesitate. "What you said..."

"I see you constantly striving to protect the Earth. I thought of bringing some fun for you," Fang Mo shrugged. "Finding some fun is not to reward your efforts but to keep yourself somewhat sane and continue being a normal person. Have you ever thought about how long it has been since you had some fun? The world is actually vast, why not go and see it for yourself?"

"Well, you still have a few years before you die, right? You can consider what I said," Fang Mo raised his shoulders. With the Bioball he had in his hands, which could capture any creature, he was really curious about what would happen if he brought a living being from one world to another.

At the moment, the Ancient One's attitude towards him was indeed quite friendly, so saving her life shouldn't be a big deal.

Maybe after Doctor Strange knew that he had saved his teacher, his favorability would skyrocket, and he would be willing to give up the Time Stone.

Besides, Fang Mo wasn't planning to bring the Ancient One back to the Minecraft world. He would try to place her soul into the Bioball and then store the Bioball in his inventory space, waiting until he arrived in the next world.

"I... need to consider it seriously," after a moment of contemplation, the Ancient One finally spoke to Fang Mo.

"Alright, then take your time," Fang Mo nodded. "I'll go get the Tesseract first, or else someone else might take advantage of it."

"Go ahead," the Ancient One nodded, and then she lifted her hand to undo the Mirror Dimension.

Fang Mo immediately flew up into the air, drew out the Hellish Cleaver, and took care of two Chitauri aircraft. Then he teleported away from the New York Sanctum, his figure getting smaller and smaller until he completely disappeared. However, only his voice continued echoing in the Sanctum.

"I'll come find you on the day of your funeral!"
