American comics: Damn it, I’m surrounded by those who worry about their fathers!.

Chapter 1081 So you were the real culprit!

As Black Strange began chanting the forbidden incantations of the Dark Book.

The scene before my eyes began to flash back rapidly, as if a tape were being rewound.

Black Strange saw Wanda Maximoff descend upon this place like a goddess of destruction. She initially negotiated with the Sorcerer Supreme of this universe, but the negotiations failed, and a fierce battle broke out.

He witnessed how Stephen and the demon girl (Raven) of this universe fought desperately, but ultimately could not withstand the chaos magic enhanced by the Dark Book, and Kamar-Taj was reduced to scorched earth.

The scene continued to shift and change, and he saw more fragments.

This includes Wanda chasing a Latina girl (America), and the appearance and disappearance of Peter Patrick and Wong, as well as Monica Rambo.

Using these clues, Black Strange quickly pieced together what had happened in this universe.

Scarlet Witch Wanda Maximoff created a dream world, immersed herself in it with a non-existent lover, and ended up having two children.

However, after the illusion disappeared, her child also disappeared.

Wanda's goal then became to find the girl named America, and in order to gain the ability to travel through the multiverse, to go to a specific universe to find her child.

"child……?"

Black Strange slowly stood up, the chaos and pain in his eyes gradually being replaced by a new, darker madness.

It seems my idea was correct.

Peter Padreik and Wanda Maximoff possess powers he cannot comprehend, powers that may transcend a single universe.

Scarlet Witch's weakness is her child.

By devouring them, merging with them, and combining the power of all powerful and special beings, one might truly gain the power to rewrite everything and restart countless universes.

By then, he will not only be able to save his Christine, but also create a perfect new world that belongs entirely to him and Christine.

The end of this universe is nothing more than another failed draft that needs to be covered up.

The shock and pain that had just occurred from witnessing the happy ending of the universe were instantly overwhelmed by a greater ambition and a more extreme obsession.

He found new and more compelling reasons to convince himself.

After making up his mind, Hei Qiyi suddenly raised his head, his gaze seemingly piercing through endless dimensions, locking onto the direction in which the chaotic magic ultimately disappeared.

A few minutes later.

Black Strange hovered in the air, the Eye of Agamotto radiating a chilling green light from his chest.

"Since I can't find the you of today, I'll go back to find what you cherish most..."

Black Strange muttered to himself, his hands suddenly manipulating the power of the Time Stone.

"Boom!!!"

As the green light emanating from the Eye of Agamotto spread, the powerful currents of time were stirred once more, and the surrounding scenery began to flow backward at breakneck speed.

The sun, moon, and stars rotate in reverse, and the rise and fall of cities unfolds in the blink of an eye.

Black Strange, using his immense magical power gained from devouring countless monsters and aided by the Eye of Agamotto, forcibly reversed the timeline of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, returning to the past.

After returning to the past, Black Strange immediately located the time coordinates.

He quickly pinpointed the timeline of Wanda's creation in this universe, after acquiring the power of the Dark Book, when she began constructing a farm illusion covering a large area outside New York.

Time stood still for a moment.

The Black Strange appeared on the outskirts of an area that appeared ordinary but whose reality was actually distorted by powerful chaotic magic.

Before him lay tranquil fields and ordinary roads, but in his dark perception, a vast, exquisite, yet illusory "perfect world" lay hidden there.

"With the power of the Dark Book, infiltrating silently... is not difficult."

Hei Qiyi muttered to himself, his hands forming complex hand seals.

The dark energy around him became extremely restrained.

Like the most cunning venomous snake, the black strange creature cautiously burrowed into the energy barrier of the illusion without causing the slightest ripple.

Inside the illusion, the sun shone brightly, and everything was so perfect it seemed unreal.

In a cozy farmhouse, he saw his target—Wanda, who was happily caring for two baby boys in cradles—Billy and Tommy—with "Peter Patrick" (a phantom created by Wanda based on her memories and desires).

Looking at Wanda's genuine smile and "Peter's" feigned gentleness, a complex emotion flashed in Black Strange's eyes.

Ultimately, this Wanda in the universe, like herself, embarked on a path of no return for the sake of her lover.

He sympathizes with and understands the other person, but he can no longer turn back now. He will clear away any obstacles in his way.

With a deep sigh, Hei Qiyi suppressed his urge to act immediately, like the most patient hunter lurking in the shadows, waiting for the best opportunity.

Time passed, and finally, "Peter Patrick" seemed to receive a phone call and went out, while Wanda was called by a neighbor to help.

The two left the room temporarily.

Seeing an opportunity, the strange black figure quickly appeared beside the cradle.

Looking at the two babbling infants, completely unaware of the danger, Black Strange's eyes held no pity, only the cold indifference of seeing them as important bargaining chips.

He reached out, and the dark energy, like a soft blanket, prepared to wrap the two children up and take them away.

……

Meanwhile, in another dead universe that has been destroyed by the Three-Eyed Strange.

Stephen Strange, from the main Marvel Cinematic Universe, is sitting cross-legged amidst the ruins, with the Dark Book, emanating an ominous aura, floating in front of him.

The pages moved without wind, and countless blasphemous knowledge and forbidden magic flooded into his consciousness like a torrent.

With Raven and Bruce's protection, he comprehended and mastered the power of the Dark Book at an astonishing speed.

It includes not only offensive black magic, but also various mysterious rituals, dimensional knowledge, and most importantly, sleepwalking witchcraft.

Just as Raven was getting impatient and was about to ask him when it would be over.

Suddenly, Stephen's tightly closed eyes snapped open.

A strong sense of unease rose within him, like an alarm bell ringing in his heart.

"No, something's happened, something's not right..."

Stephen spoke in a low voice, his hands moving rapidly in front of him as he sensed the subtle fluctuations of the multiverse.

"The structure of time... is being violently disturbed, and in a very domineering way. I can feel it. Our cosmic time is being disturbed. It's the Eye of Agamotto. Someone is forcibly rewinding some important timeline."

Stephen's face turned extremely ugly, and he immediately thought of the most likely culprit.

The black monster that devoured the other half of itself and was determined to reverse the past.

"He went to the main universe! What does he want to do?!"

Stephen immediately realized the seriousness of the problem.

Black Strange entered his own universe, and if he wanted to go back in time, his own universe would likely suffer the same fate of destruction as Black Strange's universe.

"What did you say? The Black Strange has entered your universe?"

Raven asked him in shock.

"Yes, we must stop him, but it's too late to go back now."

A resolute glint flashed in Stephen's eyes. "This is the only way... sleepwalking witchcraft."

Without hesitation, he slammed his hands onto the Dark Book and began chanting the most evil and dangerous forbidden spell he had just mastered.

As the incantation was uttered, Stephen's consciousness instantly detached from his body, following the links provided by the Dark Book and the connection with his soulmate, traversing endless dimensions and forcibly rushing into the Marvel main universe.

Stephen decides to possess himself in the main universe, just like Wanda did.

Or rather, it's yourself from the past timeline.

The past, in Kamar-Taj, unaware of the impending crisis, was himself.

In the Marvel Cinematic Universe, in a past timeline, at the Kamar-Taj Library.

Stephen Strange was discussing with Wong some unusual fluctuations in the magic barrier recently.

Just as Wang was about to stand up and rest, Stephen's body suddenly stiffened, his eyes instantly became empty, and then he was occupied by another consciousness that was more weathered, anxious and full of darkness.

"Uh!"

Stephen from the main universe let out a muffled groan, then looked at his hands in disbelief, feeling the powerful dark magic surging within him.

Has my sleepwalking witchcraft successfully possessed me?
"Stephen? What's wrong?" Wang immediately noticed his friend's unusual behavior, took a step back warily, and assumed a defensive stance.

"No, you're not Stephen, who are you?! What did you do to him?!"

Wang Neng could clearly sense that although his friend's body hadn't changed, his inner soul aura had completely changed, filled with the nauseating evil energy of the Dark Book.

"Your Majesty, it is I, Stephen!"

The possessed Stephen hurriedly spoke, his tone urgent, "I am myself from the future, possessing myself in the present. Listen, there's no time to explain, Your Majesty. I possessed you through sleepwalking witchcraft."

"Sleepwalking witchcraft? Your future self?"

The king's brow furrowed, not daring to relax for a moment. "How could you, in the future, be proficient in such evil forbidden arts? And with such a strong aura of the Dark Tome! Could it be that you, like Mordo, ultimately betrayed Kamar-Taj and turned to the darkness?!"

Wang made a defensive stance, preparing to attack his opponent immediately should anything go wrong.

Stephen was momentarily speechless at the king's words, a hint of helplessness appearing on his face.

"...The situation is far more complicated than you imagine, Your Majesty. In the future, I encountered a powerful enemy that we cannot even imagine. In order to fight him and protect more people, I was forced to learn the power of the Dark Book, but now is not the time to talk about that."

Stephen forced down his turbulent emotions and said in a rapid voice, "There is a 'me' from another universe who has completely fallen. He is forcibly rewinding time in our universe. Although I don't know his purpose yet, there is no doubt that if he succeeds, our universe will face annihilation. We must stop him immediately."

Despite the sheer volume and absurdity of the information, Wang, seeing the familiar look in Stephen's eyes and witnessing the undeniable and drastic time fluctuations, gritted his teeth and chose to temporarily trust him.

"Damn it! Nothing good ever comes out of my life when I get involved with you. And now I believe that every crisis in the multiverse is caused by you."

Wang cursed, but still quickly opened a portal to the outskirts of New York. "Let's go!"

The past "Stephen," possessed by Stephen's consciousness, stepped into the portal without hesitation.

With his familiarity with the dark magic aura and the added advantage of his knowledge of the Dark Book, Stephen quickly located Doctor Dark Strange.

Stephen was somewhat bewildered as he looked at the illusion before him.

Could it be that Black Strange's purpose was to create this illusion for Wanda?

He had been speculating about where Black Strange had traveled back in time.

Unexpectedly, the other party retraced their steps back to the dream world, to Wanda and "Peter," and to this point in time when the children lived.

Stephen shook his head, banishing the extraneous thoughts from his mind.

Although we don't know the other party's purpose, we must stop him.

Stephen quickly discovered the weakness in the illusion and forced his way into it.

Upon entering the illusion, Stephen just saw Black Strange enveloping the two children in dark energy and preparing to leave.

He paused for a moment after seeing Hei Qi's strange movements.

Is this guy targeting Wanda's child?

Realizing what was happening, Stephen immediately shouted at the other person, "Stop!"

At the same time, he instantly drew the Holy Sword of Vishanti with both hands and rushed towards the Black Strange.

"Another troublemaker?! No, it's you. It seems that not killing you last time was a huge mistake on my part."

Black Strange turned around abruptly and saw yet another Stephen appear. He was initially surprised, but then sensed the familiar magical aura emanating from the other and immediately recognized him as the guy who had stopped him from saving Christine in his own universe.

The Black Strange immediately released dark magic energy.

"boom!!!"

The two energies collided instantly.

Dark energy clashed violently with dark magic mixed with divine aura, and the enormous impact shattered the walls of the farmhouse.

To avoid hurting the child and to avoid completely alarming Wanda, the two fought and rushed outwards in perfect unison, quickly breaking through the barrier of the illusion and arriving in the real world.

In the real wilderness, the two had no more scruples and let loose completely.

Black Strange unleashed its dark tentacles, which Stephen used Cytorak's crimson ribbons to defend himself.

Seeing that his attack was ineffective, Black Strange unleashed Hellfire, but it was instantly dispersed by Stephen's Bossart Lightning.

The energy clashed and collided, distorting space itself.

"You actually studied the Dark Book!"

As soon as Black Strange and Stephen clashed, Black Strange sensed Stephen's increased strength and immediately realized that Stephen had learned the Dark Book.

"It seems that you and I are the same; in pursuit of what we wanted to protect, we both ultimately chose to fall into darkness."

Blackie spoke to Stephen with a complicated expression.

"No, we are different!"

Stephen immediately released a burst of dark energy to repel it, and shook his head at the other party.

Although he has now learned the Dark Book and his strength has greatly increased, he is still possessed by a sleepwalking sorcery and cannot unleash his full power. Moreover, the Black Strange is a complete form that has devoured countless lives and another version of himself, making his dark energy even purer and more boundless.

Stephen quickly found himself at a disadvantage, being forced into a retreat.

"Give up! You don't understand what complete power means at all. Even if you've mastered the power of the Dark Book, it's still far from enough!"

As Hei Qiyi spoke, his attacks became increasingly fierce.

Just when Stephen was in danger...

"Who?! Who's disturbing my home?!"

A sharp shout, filled with shock and anger, came from the direction of the illusion.

The two immediately looked in the direction from which the sound came, and saw Wanda's figure emerge from the illusion.

She clearly sensed the huge energy fluctuations from the outside world and the damage to the illusion, her face showing a mixture of shock and anger.

Wanda's appearance caused Black Strange's offensive to pause slightly.

Seeing that Black Strange's attention was drawn to Wanda, Stephen's eyes flashed with a sharp light. Seizing the fleeting opportunity, he mustered his last strength and slammed his hands hard on the ground.

A complex small magic circle lit up instantly.

To Hei Qiyi's astonishment, the teleportation magic circle flashed, and a small spaceship was teleported over.

This is a spaceship placed in Tony Stark's laboratory, which Stephen has seen before.

According to Tony, he built the interstellar travel spaceship after hearing stories of Peter's farm and the ship constantly bringing back "fathers who worry about their fathers."

Tony stated that the spaceship carries the "sand grains" (Sandman's Sand) that Peter gave him, and can use quantum technology to locate Peter's universe and pinpoint his farm.

As for why he built such a spaceship, it's because Tony hopes that one day this spaceship can reach the Peter Pan universe and bring back a few superpowered children for him.

After all, having only one daughter might be a bit lonely; it would be best to have several children.

The scene shifts to the present.

She considered that the child should not fall into the clutches of the Black Strange, but she was powerless to stop him.

So Stephen thought of sending the child to Peter's universe and, without permission, teleported Tony's spaceship there.

Immediately afterward, taking advantage of the moment when Wanda distracted Black Odd, he swiftly snatched the two terrified babies from Black Odd's dark energy envelope and placed them in the spaceship's safe cabin.

Before Black Strange could react, Stephen quickly wrote two names on the card—Billy and Tommy—and put it into the spaceship.

Black Strange reacted and flew into a rage, his dark energy transforming into a giant hand that grabbed at the spaceship.

But Stephen was faster.

He withstood the attack from the black monster with his own body, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

Stephen then used his last bit of strength to start the spaceship carrying the two babies.

After the spaceship started, it disappeared from their sight with a "whoosh".

"Go, go find your true home!"

"Do not!!!"

The black monster let out a roar of alarm and anger.

In the distance, a spaceship carrying two wailing babies streaked through dimensional turbulence and crashed toward the farm in the DC Universe.

Stephen's severely injured consciousness, due to energy depletion and severe injuries, could no longer maintain its sleepwalking state and instantly detached from its past self's body, returning to its original form in the Death Universe.
