"The Ancient One actually didn't deal with those fleeing Ravagers?"
Michael was not surprised by the appearance of the light circle; in fact, he was very certain that the Ancient One had acted, as the spatial teleportation light circle emitted a strong aura of the Ancient One.
Although the Order of the Mages has always only managed Earth's hidden, mystical side, generally not interfering with the real, material World.
But that also depends on the specific situation! Just like this time, if the anti-matter annihilation bomb had been successfully detonated, Earth would have been erased, and what would be left of the hidden and mystical sides? They would all have been reduced to nothing, and what good would that be? So, Michael was not surprised at all by the intervention of the Order of the Mages, or even the Ancient One herself.
What surprised Michael more was that the Ancient One, this fellow, usually acts to cut the weeds and pull up the roots, so why did she just watch the Ravager Battleship successfully pass through the wormhole and jump away?
"Could it be?"
"Does the Ancient One only care about Earth?"
"Or is it because there was the abducted young Star-Lord on that battleship?"
If it was only about Earth, Michael didn't think it was very plausible.
Therefore, Michael believed that the Ancient One didn't bother with that Ravager Battleship more likely because young Star-Lord was on board that battleship.
"Could it be that…"
"The Ancient One still believes young Star-Lord can become the future Captain of the Guardians of the Galaxy?"
"Is that possible?"
It should be known that in the original plot, Star-Lord's ability to become a Guardian of the Galaxy was largely due to Yondu's protection in the early stages.
But now, Yondu is dead, the Ravagers are crippled, and they don't even have their ultimate trump card anymore.
Young Star-Lord's future will most likely be sold by these Ravagers to Ego in exchange for a large sum of money.
And young Star-Lord's future will most likely serve as Ego's large battery. Michael could guess all this, so how could the Ancient One, who possesses the Time Stone, 'not see' it?
"Or perhaps…"
"The Ancient One simply doesn't care about those fleeing Ravagers?"
"Forget it."
"Too lazy to think about those things."
"It's better to subdue this fellow, who looks so deeply aggrieved, as if someone bullied her."
Shaking his head, Michael no longer focused on why the Ancient One let those Ravagers go; if the Ancient One didn't care, Michael cared even less.
As for whether the anti-matter annihilation bomb, taken away by the spatial teleportation light portal, would cause any negative effects, Michael paid even less attention to that. For a Mage, especially a spatial Mage, what kind of thing is a so-called anti-matter annihilation bomb? What Michael was focused on was Dark Phoenix Qin Ge Lei, who, after the anti-matter annihilation bomb disappeared, lost her target, re-locked her hatred onto him, and was rapidly diving down from high altitude… But! Before Michael could decide whether to capture Jean Grey and imprison her, or directly seal her abilities, or even brainwash her to work for him.
White appeared once again, but the news he brought shocked Michael.
"Master!"
"Detection shows that Russia on Earth has suddenly launched over a dozen strategic Nuclear Missiles towards Mi Federation."
"Based on calculations of Earth's current World situation, if no extraordinary forces intervene, there is a 100% probability of a nuclear war, leading to the Third World War."
"If extraordinary forces do intervene, there is still a 70% probability of a nuclear war and the Third World War!"
"Master, do we need to intervene to stop it?"
White swiftly projected the calculation process and results onto Michael's before via a cross-space projection device, asking… "…"
"…"
What could Michael say? Does Earth really have to be so full of disasters? The alien threat was just resolved, and now the Earthlings are getting restless. "This Apocalypse…"
"He's truly too troublesome, isn't he?"
Michael didn't directly answer White, but with a thought, he found the mastermind behind the Nuclear Missile launch.
It was none other than Apocalypse, who had gone to Russia to stir up trouble.
This fellow, because he had been busy acquiring nuclear weapon launch codes everywhere, didn't know what Earth had just gone through.
Seeing over a dozen nuclear weapons launch into the sky and fly towards Mi Federation, Apocalypse was currently gloating. "And…"
"The police are too useless."
The Mutant School was in ruins, and Charles and his group hadn't even found Apocalypse's whereabouts. In fact, due to Charles's sudden rampage, the entire police force had almost no combat power left.
Moreover, having learned that their Mutant School had become a ruin, all the police were rushing back to the school's ruins. This Third World War, it might actually be about to break out.
