Strange, the old friend, didn't seem to have anything to say. When he saw Dio preparing to take action, he immediately used magic to condense a strangely shaped long sword and then chopped at him.
But Dio was in no mood to waste time with him, and the figure of [World] instantly appeared behind him!
"Smash...Valudo!"
Time has been paused!
But this time Dio's main goal was not to kill the woman. He asked [World] to punch Strange's spine at the fastest speed, preparing to paralyze this guy for a while.
Then he swung his knife at the mysterious woman!
With a sudden movement of his sword, Dio actually split the man in half vertically.
However, he did not feel any joy in his heart. If the other party could be killed so easily, he would never have let this guy get away last time!
Needless to say, this fake product displayed in the open is used to attract attention, but he has to try it anyway. This is an open conspiracy!
But just as Dio put away his knife and tried to find the opponent's true location, he suddenly spat out a large mouthful of blood, and his entire chest collapsed!
Turning around, he saw that the woman had cunningly disguised herself as Strange, and then she found out his weakness that made it impossible for him to kill Strange, and she took advantage of the situation and launched a sneak attack to severely damage the [World]!
It was not until this woman turned into his true self that Dio noticed the two gem rings on her hands, one green and one yellow...
Logically speaking, she should also have a red reality gem to complete the traffic light. Could it be hidden
"The ability to stop time is really unreasonable. Fortunately, I got this time gem in advance, otherwise I really wouldn't be able to do anything to you." The woman seemed to have finally found her confidence, and the pleasure on her face was almost undisguised.
Dio said nothing with a gloomy face, and immediately used the [World]'s ability of "Reality Overwrite" to erase the injury.
At the same time, it stopped wasting ripple energy and quickly released the time-stop state.
It's not that he didn't think that the other party might have already obtained the Time Stone, but the previous time when he and Strange worked together to fight against Ghost Rider made him make a wrong judgment!
That time when time was stopped, Strange was hit at first, and then slowly returned to normal under the power of the Time Stone.
Therefore, Dio believed that even if the other party got the Time Stone, it would be impossible to unleash its true power immediately. Under the time stop of the [World], it would also require a period of adaptation.
However, no one knew what went wrong. Instead of being unable to adapt, the other party felt like a fish in water, just like him. He could move freely in the world where time was stopped, and even do things that he could not do. For example, in the state of time stopping, he could still use the ability of the suspected reality gem.
What does this prove
The other party was not adapting to his abilities, but was using the Time Stone to create a unique space around himself where time no longer flows!
Although the scope of this special space is not too large, it does not have that many restrictions.
In other words, not only was the time stop of the [World] offset by the time stop of the other party, it also failed to prevent her from continuing to play with time using the Time Stone!
This is simply the worst news!
If Dio had not determined that the opponent could only affect a small area around himself, he really wanted to turn the table over and stop playing, but even so, he still had a terrible headache.
Why can this woman exert such great power
He really couldn't figure out this problem!
However, there are even more troubles to come.
When time resumed flowing, the woman suddenly took a wicked look at the body that was split in half beside her, and then asked with vengeance: "Guess who you just killed? I was going to spare the life of that 'little mouse', what a pity, tut tut."
Dio's heart skipped a beat. He had indeed seen this woman and Strange come out of the portal together. Now the original Strange was actually her in disguise, so the real Strange must be...
Just then, a red light flashed...
The two halves of the body lying on the ground directly turned into the appearance of Strange, with their eyes wide open with anger, as if they died with their eyes open!
Dio's heart suddenly fell to the bottom. This woman did it on purpose!
Facing his vicious gaze that seemed to want to eat her alive, the woman was unusually proud and comfortable, with a sickly blush appearing on her face.
Steve and the others were already a little confused!
They had been trying not to blink, but why was one of them suddenly dismembered? And the one who died seemed to be... Strange
From what that woman said, it turned out that Dio killed him personally
What on earth happened
Can someone tell me what I missed when I blinked? Huh
This feeling is like watching a movie that has been cut with a pair of scissors. Everything is fine in the last second, and someone is lying dead in the next second. You can't see how or who killed him. You can only infer it through the lines of other characters. It's really a rip-off!
This kind of movie can totally drive those with obsessive compulsive disorder to death!
And now, they are experiencing this feeling of scratching their heads!
Although Strange was obviously controlled by that woman, he wouldn't kill her right away, right
Steve and the others, who had no idea of the cause and effect or the process in between, looked at Dio with some suspicion and disbelief.
And this is of course what the woman wants to see!
"How does it feel to kill one of your own people? Look at the way those people are looking at you right now. Tsk tsk~ I'm sure they're also wondering if there will ever be a day when you'll kill them all. Oh, and here's the second part of the no-prize question. Guess how many people I controlled with this little baby last time? Excluding that cute little girl."
The heart-piercing words uttered by the woman did not shake Dio at all. Regardless of whether this was the real Strange, even if it was true, what would it matter
At worst, we can use up all the remaining [Sinful Souls] and resurrect Strange!
And the cost is definitely lower than resurrecting Carol!
Without the Time Stone, Strange is still just a mortal, and there is no energy of the Infinity Stones in his body!
But what this woman said next was completely intended to alienate everyone.
Everyone knew that she had ulterior motives and was trying to divide them, but they had no choice but to face up to it!
This is the most brilliant thing about this woman!
