Super Detective in the Fictional World

Chapter 2078 - 2078 Rewind, the Murdered Isn’t Human



2078 Rewind, the Murdered Isn’t Human

The bluish-purple fog was approaching quickly, and the monster that was being formed in it from the planets and blood vessels got bigger and bigger, reaching a height of 100 meters.

The African-American man who had come with Strange raised his head and exclaimed, “It’s the Dark Dimension. Dormammu is here.”

Luke looked at him.

The man’s eyes were full of despair. “It’s too late. Nobody can stop him.”

Luke immediately lost interest in him.

In movies, this was the weakling who acted as a foil to the protagonist.

Who knew, he might be stabbed in the heart by the villain in the end; only then would he repent and cough up blood as he told the protagonist to “work hard,” before he got off the stage and got lost.

However, Luke didn’t say anything.

There was no way the successor whom the Ancient One had chosen would be weak.

In 2023, Strange had come back from the dead, and lived past the ending.

Sure enough, Strange’s expression changed, and he suddenly said, “We’ll see about that.”

As he spoke, his hands moved in a pattern. The Eye of Agamotto on his chest turned, and the Time Stone inside lit up with a green light.

A green circle of runes appeared on Strange’s right palm, along with several green circles on his right forearm.

Strange’s expression tensed with the strain, and the green circle slowly started turning quickly.

The shower of water from a burst fire hydrant on the side gradually stopped at the highest point before pulling back into the hydrant.

The broken pieces of the fire hydrant flew back and mended the gap.

The fallen neon lights and civilians and the collapsed buildings all moved in reverse.

The three sorcerers with dark circles under their eyes, who had been sent flying by Luke, flew back to the street and started moving backward.

Sensing that something wasn’t right, their hands started moving.

It was like pressing the pause button; the three of them stopped moving in reverse and returned to normal. They immediately charged at Strange and the African-American sorcerer.

Caught off guard, Strange was sent flying several meters.

Thankfully, the unlucky sorcerer who had come with him had also broken free of the rewind mode. He rushed over to stop the leader, allowing Strange to escape being pressed to the ground and beaten up.

The entire world was moving in reverse. All sorts of objects and civilians were sent flying like large hidden weapons.

Strange and the leader, on the other hand, were moving normally and had to dodge the people and things that were flying around, but they were still sent flying and rolling.

The two lackeys were accidentally blocked by a building being reassembled on the side of the road, which made for a very awkward scene.

A plump Kamar-Taj sorcerer came flying out from the bottom of a collapsed building and landed in a fighting stance.

Strange quickly aimed at him and canceled the spell. “Wong, wake up.”

Looking at the rapidly rewinding world around him, the fat sorcerer surnamed Wong was a little stunned. “This is…”

Strange said helplessly, “Breaking the laws of time, I know.”

Fatty Wong looked at him, then at the Dark Dimension that had yet to completely shrink back into the Sanctum. “Alright, don’t stop now.”

Not far away, the leader was furious.

He made a series of gestures with his hands, then raised them high before slapping them onto the ground.

Ripples instantly spread out over the ground and surged toward Strange.

Strange, who had just revived Wong, was caught off guard and was hit by the ripples, causing him to fall to the ground.

The green circle of runes on his right hand suddenly paused before it disappeared.

The spell stopped, and the entire world suddenly stopped moving.

Drawing his hands back from the ground, the leader walked over unhurriedly. “You can’t change fate.”

He looked up at the Dark Dimension that had just emerged from the Sanctum. “How beautiful. This is a world that transcends time and death.”

There was a faint blue light as a shadow flashed over to Strange’s side from not far away. It was Luke, who had also been caught up in the rewind spell.

Looking down at Strange, who had just struggled to get up, Luke couldn’t help but ask, “You didn’t plan for me to stay just now?”

Hearing that, Strange turned around and smiled bitterly. “Sorry, I didn’t have time…”

Luke asked, “Is there enough time now?”

Strange stared at Luke’s left hand in surprise; a Stone glowed blue in his palm.

He could sense that it was the power from this Stone which had prevented Luke from being frozen by the power of the Eye of Agamotto.

Noticing his gaze, Luke said casually, “I’ve never learned how to use it. It’s very troublesome to control…”

At that point, the light from the Space Stone in his glove started to fade, and Luke started to slow down. “…So, can you hur~ ry~ up~?”

Strange hurriedly waved his hand to dispel the power of time that had enveloped Luke.

Luke cracked his neck and heaved a sigh. “That’s much better.”

As he spoke, his hand moved, and the collapsible staff at his waist flew out. A smooth ax blade popped out of one end, and he cut through the neck of the leader.

The head with dark circles under its eyes flew through the air before falling to the ground and rolling to a stop.

Strange, Fatty Wong and the African-American sorcerer stared at Luke in disbelief. Wait, the Dark Knight didn’t kill people, right?

Luke drew back the collapsible staff. “He’s no longer human.”

Thinking about it, the three of them agreed with him.

Humans corroded by Dormammu’s power essentially became another species, just like humans who turned into vampires.

The Dark Knight had never been lenient when it came to killing otherworldly beings.

After giving this explanation, Luke looked up at the motionless Dark Dimension. “Killing this small fry is useless. You should think about how to deal with that.”

Strange frowned.

Fatty Wang mumbled, “Dormammu is already here. Even if we rewind time, we won’t be able to erase his memories, and he’ll appear on Earth again sooner or later.”

Luke asked, “When will that happen?”

A lot could happen in a period of time.

If they had enough time, they could evacuate the people here beforehand to prevent tens of millions of lives from being buried along with the city during battle.

Hundreds of thousands of people would die even if just a few building blocks were destroyed.

After a brief silence, Fatty Wong shook his head. “Dozens of seconds? A few seconds? He’s too strong. It’s already pretty good that we’ve been able to stall him for this long.”

Luke glanced at Strange, only to see that his hair had turned gray, and he looked several years older.

He hadn’t looked like this when he was in New York.

Clearly, using the Eye of the Agamotto to turn back time to save people on a large scale had a huge negative impact on him.

As Luke and Fatty Wong spoke, Strange stared at the Dark Dimension, and his eyes flickered. “Beyond time… Beyond time?”

Murmuring the words several times, it seemed he suddenly understood something. He floated off the ground and flew straight toward the Dark Dimension.
