Although he still has no way to defeat many with one like Odin, as long as he does not meet a peak Heavenly Father-level existence like Odin, Russell is sure to win in a one-on-one situation with other Heavenly Father-levels.
This is not because he is overconfident, but because he has accurately estimated his own strength after obtaining the secret energy of the universe.
The Kingdom of God and the secret power of the universe allowed him to successfully become one of the stronger beings among the Heavenly Father level.
Even if he fights against his teacher Gu Yi, Russell is now confident of defeating Gu Yi.
Even if Ancient One used the Time Stone, he would still be sure of victory.
After confirming that it would take about ten years for Thiam to fully develop, Russell deactivated his divine perception.
The study room of Zhenglian headquarters.
Just when he was considering whether to arrange for someone to check the Eternals who protected Thiam, namely Cirsi, Tina, Ikaris and others, the system that had not appeared for a long time appeared again.
"Advanced reward: Dark Strange; Status: Inactive; Activation conditions: Kill ten gods!"
this……
After seeing the reward mission suddenly released by the system, Russell couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
He did not expect that the system would actually issue a task at this time.
Moreover, what was released was the high-level reward he had always wanted.
Dark and strange!
Although the system only gives the name of the reward now, just by looking at the name, you can know what the reward is about.
Not only that, this is the first time that the system has specifically added the prefix "advanced" in front of a reward.
After seeing the newly released reward missions in the system, information about Dark Doctor Strange quickly flashed through Russell's mind.
Dark Doctor Strange is one of Doctor Strange's many futures, and it is also the most powerful future.
In a certain universe, Strange, who is already Doctor Strange, decides to use the power of the Time Stone to save his colleague and love interest, Dr. Christine Palmer.
In this universe, Dr. Christine Palmer's death is an absolute point in time.
It was precisely because of the death of Dr. Christine Palmer that Strange became Doctor Strange and eventually defeated Dormammu who tried to invade the universe.
However, Doctor Strange in this universe is not about to give up on the idea of saving Dr. Christine Palmer.
Even though Ancient One had made it clear to him, he still planned to create a so-called time paradox to save Dr. Christine Palmer.
Using the power of the Time Stone, he traveled back into the distant past and found the lost Library of Cagliostro.
It is rumored that Master Cagliostro knows how to break through the absolute point of time. Doctor Strange is trying to get the method to break through the absolute point of time from Master Cagliostro.
Although he did not find Master Cagliostro, he found a way to break through the absolute point of time in Cagliostro's library.
Use unlimited mana to forcefully break through the absolute point of time.
Although Strange was already very strong at that time and could even fight to a 50-50 against Ancient One, his magic power was far from unlimited.
So, he found a way to "quickly" improve his own strength.
Gain power by absorbing other life forms!
Although this so-called quick method is also an extremely long time for normal humans.
But compared to obtaining nearly unlimited mana, this time is almost negligible.
Although Doctor Strange knew that there were huge risks in absorbing other life forms to gain power, he was already a little paranoid at that time.
In the following time, he continued to summon powerful creatures from other dimensions and devour them one by one.
Using this method, Doctor Strange quickly gained enough magic power.
Although he also experienced some things in the following time.
For example, he had a fight with his justice doppelganger and won, making his divided self whole again.
In the end, Dark Strange successfully changed the absolute point of time and saved Dr. Christine Palmer.
But the moment he prevented Christine's death, a time paradox occurred in his universe.
So, the entire universe collapsed.
Although Dark Strange had gained unlimited mana at the time, he was still unable to prevent the demise of the universe.
He used the form of a pocket universe to maintain the universe that was about to collapse completely.
However, at that time, he was the only one left in the universe.
Although Dark Strange saved the last universe and his own life, he could only stay alone in the pocket universe, waiting for his own death and the demise of the universe.
Dark Strange has good intentions.
But he underestimated the consequences of creating a time paradox.
From a personal point of view, Russell feels that Dark Strange is a very pitiful person.
However, he also wholeheartedly recognized Dark Strange's strength.
Just by himself, he destroyed the entire universe and became the last survivor in his universe.
Although it was the time paradox that really destroyed his universe, the time paradox was created by him.
More importantly, after all life in the universe died, he survived and maintained the last pocket universe alone.
From this perspective, Dark Strange's strength is undoubtedly the pinnacle of a single universe.
If he doesn't break through the absolute point of time and create the so-called time paradox, as long as he continues to practice, he will undoubtedly become a multiverse-level existence.
But it's a pity that Dark Strange doesn't have this chance, because he destroyed his own universe.
Although there is only the last bit left in his universe, a pocket universe is obviously not enough to support his promotion to the multiverse level.
Pity!
What a pity!
If Russell was Dark Strange, he wouldn't do such a thing.
What do you mean by that, women will only affect the speed at which I draw my sword!
Christian not only affected the speed of Dark Strange's "drawing the sword", but also made Dark Strange make a very unwise decision.
But having said that, if it were to change the absolute point of Christine's death, Dark Strange would not have been born.
After recalling the dark and strange information in his mind, Russell frowned slightly.
He did not expect that the high-level reward "Dark Strange" would appear at this time.
Although he had wanted this reward for a long time, when it actually appeared, he felt that it came at the wrong time.
The reason is simple, because he can't find the ten gods group now.
Except for Thiam, who is still a "fetus", and the Supreme Alitham of the Celestial Group who will most likely appear after killing Thiam, he has no idea where the other Celestial Groups are.
What's more, he simply doesn't have enough ability to complete this reward task now.
He feels a bit like a pauper who suddenly got a bank card with 100 million US dollars in it.
But the problem is, he doesn't know the bank card password.
This feeling of being able to see but not eat is not an ordinary discomfort.
After complaining in his mind that the system deliberately used the high-level reward "Dark Strange" to lure him, Russell seriously thought about how to complete this reward task.
Although the difficulty of this task is not generally high, high difficulty also means high rewards.
Moreover, Russell is not completely helpless now.
As long as he can get the Black Death Sword in the hands of God Killer Geer, he will have the strength to kill the Celestials head-on.
Although his current rank and strength are not as high as the original symbiote god Nar, he still has his own advantages.
He is the King of Symbiotes!
Although he has not used the King's Serum for a long time, he still has the King's Serum.
With the ability of the King's Serum in him, as long as he can get the Black Death Sword, he is sure to fully unleash the power of the Black Death Sword.
A native of a barbaric planet like Lian Geer was able to exert the power of the Black Death Sword to great extent.
Of course he can do it even though he is many times stronger than the original Geer.
And with the natural fit between the King's Serum and the Black Death Sword, he would only be able to use the Black Death Sword more easily than Geer.
More importantly, he had already learned from Galactus where the God-Slayer Gal had appeared before.
Thinking of this, he temporarily gave up the idea of dealing with Cirsi, Tina and others personally.
Compared with "Dark Strange" and the Black Death Sword, Circe, Tina and others are not important at all.
Besides, even if he couldn't deal with Circe, Tina and others personally, there were plenty of people in Zhenglian who could deal with them.
"number 3!"
Russell sat on the boss's chair and said to the ubiquitous clone program No. 3.
"Sir, what are your orders?"
No. 3's clone program immediately answered.
"Arrange manpower to find a few Eternals named Cirsi and Tina, and also look for the so-called mutants."
Russell said quickly.
When looking for someone like this, he only needs to instruct No. 3's clone program, and the forces under Zheng Lian will search for Eternals and Mutants all over the world, without him having to deal with it personally.
"Okay, sir!"
"However, in the existing database, I have not found any information about the Eternals and Mutants. Sir, can you provide more accurate information?"
The clone program No. 3 said respectfully.
"sure!"
Russell said with a smile.
In the following time, he told No. 3's clone program in detail about the Eternals and Mutants.
After explaining to No. 3's clone program what the Eternals and Mutants were about, Russell's body turned into golden light and disappeared into the study out of thin air.
Kama Taj.
living room.
As soon as Russell teleported over, he saw Gu Yi who was making tea in the living room.
Make tea, drink tea, read a book...
This is one of Gu Yi's few hobbies.
After seeing Russell arriving, Gu Yi raised his head and looked at him, and said calmly: "Sit down and talk."
"good!"
Russell first nodded towards Gu Yi, and then came to sit in front of Gu Yi.
Although his strength has surpassed that of Ancient One, he still maintains due respect for Ancient One.
After all, Ancient One is also his magic teacher.
If Ancient One had not decided to accept him as a student, he would not have mastered so much magic, let alone embarked on the path of establishing a divine kingdom and becoming a god.
After giving Russell a cup of steaming honey tea, Gu Yi continued: "You came here this time, you probably didn't come to see me."
"Tell me, what do you need from me?"
Russell picked up the teacup and took a sip.
Then, he slowly said: "I found some information about the Celestials and the Eternals, and I want to share it with you, teacher."
"The Celestials and the Eternals?"
After hearing Russell's words, Gu Yi frowned slightly.
As the Supreme Mage, she certainly knows what the Celestials and the Eternals are.
But she couldn't understand why Russell suddenly mentioned the Celestials and the Eternals.
"What information did you find?"
Gu Yi said silently.
"I discovered a developing Celestial 'fetus'."
Russell said calmly.
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Yi's frown deepened.
Gu Yi knew that Russell was not a peaceful person, but she didn't expect that Russell would actually start to have ideas for the Celestial Group.
Although Russell only said that he had discovered a developing "fetus" of the Celestial God Group, Gu Yi immediately guessed what he meant.
After a few seconds of silence, Gu Yi looked at Russell seriously and said slowly: "Now is not a good time to offend the God Group."
"Since you know the Celestials, you should know how strong they are."
Gu Yi said it very tactfully, but her meaning was very clear, that is, it is best not to take advantage of the gods group now.
"Teacher, you are overthinking. I have no intention of offending the gods yet."
"I just want to tell you, teacher, that there is a developing 'fetus' of the Gods in the core of the earth."
At this point, Russell paused and did not continue.
Although he didn't finish what he said, he was sure that Ancient One could understand what he meant.
As the protector of the Earth and the current Supreme Mage of Karma Taj, the Ancient One knows no less about the Celestials than he does.
This also means that Gu Yi knows very well what the "divine appearance" of the birth of the Celestial God Group is all about.
Although Karma Taj seldom pays attention to real things that have nothing to do with the magic field, this does not mean that Karma Taj completely ignores things in the real world.
Kamal Taj would not sit idly by and ignore such a major event as the destruction of the earth.
If nothing else, if the earth disappears, Kamal Taj will disappear with it.
"What are you going to do?"
Gu Yi said with a solemn expression.
"It's easy, kill him."
"But not now. Teacher, you just said that now is not a good time to offend the God Team."
"Furthermore, I plan to wait until this 'fetus' of the Celestial God Group develops more fully."
Russell said calmly.
After hearing Russell's answer, Gu Yi shook his head helplessly.
"It seems you plan to keep going up."
"Do you need my help, or are you going to handle it yourself?"
Ancient One continued.
"It's such a small thing, I won't bother you, teacher, just do it yourself."
"But there is one thing. I really need your help, teacher."
Russell said sincerely.
"What's the deal?"
Ancient One said quickly.
"I want to see all the information related to Master Cagliostro."
