After clarifying his thoughts, Lucas first secretly sent a message to Watcher to stay silent for a while, to avoid exposing his original goal of stopping Infinite Ultron.
Then he looked at the male Ancient One. "Master, what do you need me for?"
The male Ancient One's lips curved slightly, looking somewhat pleased.
He had seen all of Strange's changing expressions. Watching this arrogant disciple be humbled, he felt very gratified.
"Let me introduce you. This is Stephen Strange, the Sorcerer Supreme of Earth-616. This is Lucas, the Sorcerer Supreme of Earth-404."
The male Ancient One introduced Lucas and Strange to each other.
Lucas nodded calmly.
He had recognized Strange when he first arrived and had already met other Universes' Strange.
Especially in the Dream Dimension.
Strange, however, was somewhat surprised. He looked at the male Ancient One and asked, "Teacher, I have such a powerful fellow student, why have you never introduced him to me?"
Then Strange looked at Lucas, a little embarrassed, and said, "It's a pleasure to meet you, Sorcerer Lucas. But I'm sorry, on our first meeting, I have to trouble you with a big problem."
Lucas responded politely, "Just call me Lucas. It's a pleasure to meet you too, Strange of Earth-616."
Strange raised an eyebrow, hearing the implication that Lucas knew other Universes' Strange.
The male Ancient One's expression stiffened slightly.
He wanted to use Lucas to humble Strange's arrogance, to see his disciple look deflated and satisfy his mischievous streak. But instead, Strange had shamelessly clung to him.
The male Ancient One opened his mouth, hesitated for a moment, and then explained, "Strange, although it's in different Universes, Lucas only entered Kamar-Taj to begin learning magic after you. So, he should be your junior."
A look of astonishment flashed across Strange's face, then his expression settled, and he continued enthusiastically, "Learning has no seniority, the most accomplished comes first. Although sorcerer Lucas joined later, his magical attainments are far above mine, so he should naturally be higher in seniority."
The male Ancient One sighed inwardly, saying no more.
Judging by Strange's demeanor, even if he knew Lucas had joined later, he wouldn't mind clinging to him. But this was also good. Though arrogant, he knew how to adapt.
"Sorcerer Lucas." Gaea's voice rang out.
After seeing the three Sorcerer Supremes finish their greetings, she couldn't help but ask, "Sorcerer Lucas, could I please ask you to stop these Robots first?"
Lucas looked at Gaia, nodded and softly said, "Yes."
After agreeing to Gaia, a silver droplet reappeared behind Lucas.
Also formed from silver energy, this droplet, however, was not filled with miracles and hope, but with destruction and devastation.
Snap!
This silver droplet vanished from its original spot.
Everything around remained unchanged, as if Lucas had done nothing.
Only those with extremely keen senses could detect that this droplet had already shot out, flying towards the Ultron Legion.
Among those present, only Gaea and Atum possessed such perception.
Outside Earth-616, Infinite Ultron was leading his Ultron Legion towards the channel. He was filled with ambition at this moment.
He spoke on the Ultron Legion's shared channel, "This Universe is so special, perhaps we can find a power in this Universe that can pacify that Silver God."
Ultron 1557 said, "Infinite Ultron, you've mentioned it many times, who exactly is this Silver God you speak of? Among millions of Universes, isn't there a single variant of him?"
"Also, why do you call him the Silver God, could it be..."
Infinite Ultron replied in a deep voice, "I've seen this Silver God twice. The first time, he was battling an unknown God, passing through my Universe, which made me realize the existence of the Multiverse."
"At that time, the power he displayed was only comparable to ours, so I followed the traces of his battle with that God, hoping to pacify both of them when they were mutually wounded. That led to our second meeting."
Here, Infinite Ultron paused, gathering his emotions.
His purpose in assembling the Ultron Legion was to pacify the Silver God.
The reason he could organize the Ultron Legion and unite so many Ultrons, besides their shared ideology and common goal, was also an external threat, the threat from this Silver God.
"To be precise, I didn't actually see this Silver God the second time. I only felt his power leaking out and hastily fled. And that kind of power, I think you should have felt it too, right?"
"When it appeared, the world was only silver. From this silver power, I felt a difference in ideology. This Silver God will undoubtedly become the greatest obstacle to our pacification of the Multiverse."
Infinite Ultron slowly said, revealing what he believed to be the true identity of the Silver God.
"So that's how it is."
The other Ultrons' hearts sank.
They believed Infinite Ultron's Silver God threat theory because they had also experienced this power and had already speculated about it.
Not just them, when Lucas completed his ascension, all powerful beings in the entire Marvel world felt this power. They just couldn't determine the source of this power.
"Although this power has spread to countless Universes, its master may not be skilled in combat. Perhaps..."
An Ultron analyzed, his voice abruptly stopping.
Another Ultron continued his sentence, "Perhaps this Silver God is just..."
Similarly, this Ultron's words stopped halfway.
The other Ultrons didn't mind. In their database, humans also had similar games.
What was it called?
Afterwards, other Ultrons also joined in.
Although they were robots, they possessed their own souls and were not averse to entertainment.
Although the time flying towards the front Universe was very short, their communication was also very fast.
Ultron 1557 also said on the public screen, "I hate two kinds of people, one kind is people who talk halfway."
Infinite Ultron watched, somewhat displeased. "The first time I saw this Silver God, I saw him hunting down another God. Soon after, a celestial body, suspected to be of Universe-level, shattered, and its fragments scattered into various Universes."
"How could such an existence not be skilled in combat?"
"Haha, I didn't expect you, Infinite Ultron, to also..."
Amidst the laughter, Ultron 1557 noticed that the frequency of messages refreshing on the public screen was getting lower and lower. Not just him, but some other Ultrons also noticed this.
"Ultrons, run!"
Inside Earth-616, Strange looked at Lucas with some confusion.
He wanted to urge Lucas to act quickly.
Gaea, beside him, saw Strange's thoughts and explained, "Strange, the battle is already over."
The male Ancient One nodded, feigning understanding. Although he hadn't noticed anything either, he trusted Lucas.
"The battle is over?"
Strange asked, voicing the question in the minds of the other Gods who were gradually gathering.
"The battle is over." Gaea repeated again.
She was only not skilled in combat, but all her other abilities were not bad. She was among the top tier even among the Elder Gods.
While others couldn't clearly see Lucas's move, she could discern some of it.
Strange looked doubtfully at the Ultron Legion flying rapidly towards them from outside Earth-616.
The battle is over?
Doubt arose in his heart, and he suddenly remembered that perhaps Lucas had acted too quickly, and his senses couldn't keep up.
So he squeezed out some energy, formed a hand seal, and wiped his eyes to enhance his perception. And he used the Time Stone to alter his own time flow, giving him a slow-motion effect when viewing things.
Then he looked at the Ultron Legion again.
This time, he saw it.
He saw the Ultron Legion exploding one after another outside Earth-616, like fireworks.
This scene didn't resemble a battle between God-level beings. There was no rampant energy, no shattered spacetime, or collapsing galaxies.
Instead, it seemed somewhat ordinary. But this ordinariness made Strange feel even more terrified.
The combined forces of Earth-616 might still be able to fight the Ultron Legion, but Lucas...
Not only Strange saw it, but the other Gods also saw it.
They saw the Ultron Legion suddenly explode collectively, creating a large fireball outside Earth-616.
"What's going on..."
Someone murmured.
"Impossible! How could such powerful robots suddenly all self-destruct?!"
"These are the robots that even Hercules couldn't defeat!"
"How could it be..."
Someone was in disbelief.
Then, gradually, people began to look at Lucas. They realized that it could only be the doing of this unknown being before them.
After all, just the commotion he made while traveling was so astonishing.
It's quite reasonable that he has the ability to instantly kill all Ultrons and wipe out the Ultron Legion, right?
But even Atum, who ended the God-Eater War, wasn't this powerful.
"Hercules..."
In the crowd, someone suddenly began to sob softly.
It was Snowbird, Hercules' comrade-in-arms.
She was grieving over Hercules' death, feeling it was for naught. They clearly didn't have to do anything. They just needed to wait for this outrageously powerful being to arrive.
Besides Snowbird, others gradually began to sob as well.
After the crisis was resolved, they remembered the Skyfathers of their pantheons and other pillars who had died in battle.
It was truly infuriating. All their sacrifices of life were not worth a single snap of this being.
Though sorrowful in their hearts, none of these Gods dared to show a trace of resentment.
As transcendent beings, they clearly knew that telepathy truly existed. Every thought in the mind of a weaker being was perfectly clear before a powerful being.
"Alright, the matter is resolved."
At this moment, Lucas relaxed his posture and said casually to Gaea.
He had a little ulterior motive.
Logically, Strange called the male Ancient One, and the male Ancient One then called him.
So the male Ancient One owed him a favor, Strange owed the male Ancient One a favor, and everyone else in Earth-616 owed Strange a favor.
However, Lucas wanted to earn a favor from Gaea, so he deliberately said this to her.
Giving her the illusion that it was because she and Strange asked him to act, that he acted.
"Thank you, Sorcerer Lucas, for your assistance. I thank you on behalf of Earth-616."
Clearly, Gaea was also drawn into Lucas's trick.
Lucas smiled and said gently, "You're welcome."
Afterwards, he did not appear overly enthusiastic. After a few polite exchanges with Gaea, he went to see the male Ancient One and Strange first.
After all, the three of them, as Sorcerer Supremes, were on the same side.
