When the original concept of time in human cognition becomes blurred, it is meaningless to worry about how much time has passed.
It was not until the two spirits of Ancient One and Strange appeared in front of Dio that he was finally sure that all this was really done by the big boss Ancient One.
"You are indeed a unique existence."
Gu Yi glanced at the [world] behind Dio and sighed.
Although she had guessed that her magic might not work on this person before coming here, she still felt mixed emotions after actually seeing this scene.
Over the long years, she spent a lot of energy exploring the truth of time, and only then did she gain some insights.
But the person in front of her easily surpassed her through the strange ability called "Stand".
She would not be bored and jealous of anything, because she herself was envied by countless people, she was just sighing.
Strange, who had no idea what the Ancient One was sighing about, just felt it was a little strange and didn't think much about it. Instead, he was more interested in the strange creature standing behind the man.
"I didn't expect to meet you again so soon, but there's no need to make such a big deal." Dio looked around and asked Gu Yi curiously.
"I'm dying, so this is the only way I can see you for the last time."
When talking about his own death, Ancient One seemed very calm, as if it was not something to be afraid of, but just a trip to another place.
This kind of magnanimity is not something that ordinary people can achieve. At least Dio asked himself if he could face life and death as calmly as she did. It might also have a lot to do with the fact that he didn't live long enough. After all, God knows how long Ancient One lived.
As for this news, Dio did not seem to be very surprised. However, before he could speak, Strange suddenly woke up and said, "Oh, right, life energy! You must have a way to save her, right?"
He thought he knew what Gu Yi was thinking, but he didn't see the helplessness on Gu Yi's face.
Dio ignored this guy and just looked at Ancient One seriously, "You know I have this ability, do you need me to do it?"
At this moment, Dio really had no selfish motives. He just felt that with the existence of Ancient One, the Earth would be safer. As for the bullshit of drawing energy from the dark dimension, it was taboo...
There is no right or wrong in power. It is like arms and weapons. In the hands of soldiers, they are necessities for defending the country and maintaining public order. But if they fall into the hands of people with ulterior motives, they become a cancer that threatens social order by looting and robbing.
Everything has two sides. As a person who also absorbed the energy of the dark dimension, Ancient One protected the earth time and time again and eliminated countless world-destroying disasters.
What else can we say about a person like Casillas except that he is crazy and an idiot
Bottom line and flexibility have never been antonyms in the absolute sense. It's just that there are always people who deliberately break the bottom line under the banner of flexibility to benefit themselves. That cannot be called a bottom line at all. It is at most a fig leaf.
Ancient One had observed him for so long that she naturally knew that Dio possessed such an ability that even she could not relate to, but at this moment she smiled and shook her head gently.
"This is the best ending for me. There is no need to waste such a precious thing on me. Besides, I am not here for this matter, but to fulfill my promise."
"Ancient One!"
Strange had no idea whether Ancient One knew what he was doing.
In order to prolong her life, she even broke the taboo and took the risk to absorb energy from the dark dimension. But now the chance to continue living is right in front of her, but she gave it up so easily. Why
Gu Yi didn't explain anything further. She had already told him everything she could on the way here.
"Next you need to leave your body, do you need my help?"
Dio was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
He didn't think that Ancient One would hurt him, and the [World] was protecting him, so even if something unexpected happened, it would be within controllable range.
Then Gu Yi took a step forward, stretched out a hand and patted his body, while Dio retracted the ripple energy he was using for defense.
Wow!
Dio first felt an indescribable vibration, and then found that his perspective had changed.
At this moment, he was floating in the air, and he could still see that his body was supported by the [World] so that he did not fall to the ground.
"It's you!"
At this moment, Strange suddenly exclaimed after thinking carefully.
Dio touched his face and found that he had indeed returned to his original appearance in soul state. He did not find it strange. After all, Robbie had recognized him after his changed appearance by identifying the breath of the soul.
"Long time no see, Doctor Strange."
After adjusting to this strange state, Dio landed on the ground, smiled and greeted.
"Dio Brando?"
"I didn't expect you to remember me. Should I feel honored?"
Strange was a little confused. He never expected that the person he had been looking for who could heal his hands would be the guy he once mocked and ridiculed.
And Kristen...
"Christine has been looking for you since you disappeared."
Hearing this name suddenly again, Dio didn't know how to feel.
"Is she... okay? I went to the hospital where you used to work, but it seems like she's no longer there."
Strange shook his head and said, "I don't know either. She had already resigned before I had the car accident. I don't know where she went. I haven't contacted her until now."
So that's how it is...
The air suddenly became quiet.
At this moment, Gu Yi broke the silence, "Maybe you can continue this conversation at another time, but let me finish my work now."
After saying that, Ancient One stretched out a finger and pointed at Dio's spirit. Dio hesitated for a moment, but still did not dodge and let Ancient One do it.
Then in the next moment, there seemed to be some kind of light in Ancient One's spirit body extending into Dio's spirit body.
It seemed like a long time had passed, yet it seemed like only a brief moment had passed.
When Ancient One's spirit became somewhat illusory and withdrew his hand, Dio opened his eyes again.
He never expected that Ancient One would teach him the mirror dimension in this way.
However, when he took another look at Ancient One's already illusory spirit, he roughly understood what price Ancient One had paid.
Is it really worth just doing this
Dio looked at Ancient One in great confusion.
