Chapter 1620 Undercurrent of Time Suspicious
For Stark to intervene in his actions, Peter was already mentally prepared. After all, this is the United States and Stark's territory. And with Stark's desire to control his territory, it's not surprising that he would intervene. However, Peter never thought that this time would come so early, and Stark's actions would be so fast.
Has someone betrayed him, or has Stark been staring at him? Peter was a little uncertain for a while. Because in his view, both scenarios are possible.
For the former, he is most suspicious of Mage Gu Yi.
The sorcerer, who was talking so much and could even see through time, didn't give him a good feeling. On the one hand, it was because he was led by the nose by Gu Yi from the beginning to the end, and the feeling of being manipulated subconsciously made him feel conflicted. On the other hand, it was his instinctive feeling that Gu Yi was not as simple as he seemed.
She has a secret, and this secret is deliberately concealed from him. As a collaborator, but so secretive, this will naturally arouse his suspicion.
Of course, it would be too arbitrary to put everything on Gu Yi's head just because of these. Peter is not such an arbitrary person, so he will naturally think about other possibilities.
It's also a possibility that Stark monitors his own actions. But for this statement, Peter felt that the possibility was very small.
Regardless of the fact that Stark holds the power of the US government in his hands, he is so powerful that he almost says what he says. In many ways, these things are really useless. At the very least, in terms of high-end power, he doesn't think that the government led by Stark has anything that can be used as an enemy of himself.
The power of Zatanos has allowed him to set foot in the realm of gods and demons, and under this premise, he certainly has the confidence to despise the Stark government. To put it bluntly, as long as he wants, no matter how many people Stark arranges to watch him, he can let these guys evaporate directly from the world. He believes that Stark also understands this, so he has no reason to do this kind of thing that touches his bottom line.
Although it is said so, it cannot be said absolutely. There are too many impossibilities in this world, and Peter is not sure whether Stark will suddenly do something unreasonable.
As the saying goes, seeing is believing and hearing is not. When everything is uncertain, the only thing he can do is to investigate it himself.
The galloping Evil Spirit locomotive passed through the boundless next door, and ran directly from the west to the east of the United States at a speed that was almost capable of chasing light. This kind of movement will of course alarm many people, but for the vast majority of people, it is impossible for them to figure out the origin of this kind of movement.
Still the same sentence, Peter, who has set foot in a field that ordinary people cannot touch, is not an existence that ordinary people can make up his mind, and only people of the same class can really make up his mind and have a dialogue with him.
And there is no doubt that Ancient One is the existence of this class. So, when she learned that Peter was heading towards Washington with great fanfare, she immediately took action.
On the wilderness of West Virginia, Ancient One found Peter who was resting. Looking at this boy who has become a bit vicissitudes due to wandering all over the world and sleeping in the open air, Gu Yi sighed and walked out of the shadows.
"You shouldn't have such a big movement. If you do this, many people may notice your existence, which is not a good thing for your plan."
"You know I'm here?"
Grinning, he stomped the fire in front of him, making the flames even higher, and at the same time, Peter asked Gu Yi very directly.
This not-so-polite tone made Gu Yi frowned. She couldn't understand why Peter had such an attitude, but it didn't prevent her from answering Peter's question.
"I've been able to feel your movement since you marched towards Washington with great fanfare. Don't forget, I am still the supreme mage. At some point, as long as I am willing, everything that happens in this world can't escape my eyes."
"Really? Then why don't you guess what the reason for my coming here is?"
Gu Yi's conceited answer made Peter couldn't help raising his eyebrows, and then, as if deliberately trying to embarrass Gu Yi, he asked her such a question.
For such a first question, Gu Yi certainly didn't think that it was Peter looking for trouble and deliberately trying to fight her. What she could feel was more of a tentative feeling. This made her heart sink, and then subconsciously used the power of Agamotto's Eye, and when she withdrew her gaze from the long river of time, her face was already ugly.
"Is your plan not going well?"
"It seems that you can still know something." Hearing Gu Yi's question, Peter was naturally too lazy to continue probing. He was open and honest, and directly told the troubles he encountered. After listening to his narration, the expression on Gu Yi's face also became more dignified.
"I have seen the appearance of the long river of time, but unfortunately, I have not found out who is behind the scenes. The only thing that is certain is that this is not what ordinary people do. Their actions have already caused changes in the long river of time. It is conceivable that what they are plotting must be extraordinary."
"Why, even you can't see who is playing tricks in the dark?"
Although there is some suspicion that this is what Gu Yi is trying to cover up, but in the spirit of trust in collaborators, Peter still temporarily believes in Gu Yi's statement. And if you think so, then there is a hurdle that you can't get over.
You must know how miraculous and unbelievable the ability to survey the past displayed by Ancient One is. Although the past seen with this ability is not unique, but indeterminate. But even if she chooses one in a million, one in a million, the distance between her and the truth will be closer than that kind of unsure guess. But now, she said that she couldn't see the truth, which was obviously unreasonable.
To make Peter believe what Gu Yi said, Gu Yi had to come up with a convincing reason. And this point, Gu Yi knew it in her heart, so immediately, she explained it with a wry smile.
"As I said, the past is not so easy to explore. There are too many situations that are enough to cover up the truth of the past, making people like me lose the ability to wait and see. For example, what you saw before, that is to stop in the past. On the bank of the river, looking at the flow of countless times. It is difficult for you to determine which one is the timeline you are in."
"The other situation is that the undercurrent of time is surging. In the long flow of time, you can only see the superficial things, but not the deeper undercurrent. This is because some people Its ability is enough to blind the appearance of time. Now, what we encounter is such a situation. I can’t see the existence of this past, because the possibility of this past has turned into an undercurrent, submerged in the time In the long river. Until it emerges, there is nothing I can do."
Regarding the question of time, Gu Yi could only give a very incomprehensible answer. Faced with such an answer, the expression on Peter's face suddenly turned into astonishment. And after a long time, he opened his mouth angrily, and questioned Gu Yi like this.
"How is this possible? Are you kidding me?"
He didn't believe in Gu Yi's nonsense, because in his opinion, it was simply impossible. Covering up the truth and letting one's actions turn into an undercurrent in time, this approach seems a bit like fantasy. Of course he wouldn't believe it.
However, just because he doesn't believe it doesn't mean that such a thing doesn't exist. In fact, when he started to question Gu Yi, his own heart was already shaken.
He wasn't sure if such a person existed, and if so, how powerful and incredible such a person would be. In his heart, he didn't want such a thing to happen to him, but Gu Yi's answer directly let him dispel all the luck in his heart.
"You should know the answer in your heart. There is nothing impossible. Since there are people like me who can look at the past, why is it strange that there are people who can cover up the past?"
"Have you ever met such a person?"
"A lot." Speaking of this question, Gu Yi couldn't help showing a wry smile. "Some ancient gods and demons have this ability. For example, the Taishang Laojun and Buddha Tathagata in the eastern heaven have this ability that they call to cover up the secrets of heaven. Also, several masters in hell , including Mephisto, will also use such methods. Now, if I have to find the most suspicious person, the old opponent I mentioned, he is a good player at this method. Back then When I confronted him, I didn’t suffer less in this regard.”
"You mean, that guy who conspired against the whole world is secretly disrupting my plan?"
Peter was very skeptical, because he couldn't connect such an existence with the two fate cards he got. The king and the wheel of fortune, do they mean that the king who secretly controls hell is using his ability to tamper with the appearance of time, so that he and his allies will become hostile? If this is the case, it is too appalling.
Peter couldn't believe the conclusion he came to, but at this moment, he had to think in this direction. Because in Gu Yi's introduction, that guy was such a terrifying existence. It's not surprising that he would do such a conspiracy.
Peter is suspicious here, and Gu Yi is also secretly planning in his heart. For a moment, the two looked at each other speechlessly. Until Gu Yi spoke again, breaking the silent scene.
