Stephen Strange did not show the slightest hesitation. He turned around and went straight in.
Seeing this, Kaecilius's three underlings followed closely behind. One of them also wanted to imitate Stephen Strange and open a magic portal, while the other two simply rushed into the portal Stephen Strange had opened and had not yet closed. However, after those two also disappeared from the Sanctum, before the remaining one could enter, another portal suddenly appeared behind him, and a person abruptly jumped out of it.
Wasn't this person Stephen Strange? This was a trick to lure the tiger away from the mountain. There was still a magical shield in Stephen Strange's hand, and before Kaecilius's underling could come back to his senses, the shield swept across him.
Blaine, who was on the roof, could hear a piercing sound. When the shield came down, that unlucky underling immediately saw red. A long wound opened across his chest, and blood flowed uncontrollably. Stephen Strange was worthy of being a doctor; when he acted, he was not sloppy at all.
The only pity was that this was possibly Stephen Strange's first real fight too. Maybe on the operating table, he was a god who controlled other people's lives, but now he was also a rookie who feared death. It was estimated that the blood he had seen just now was caused by his failure to properly master several techniques.
After landing a hit, Stephen Strange saw even more hope and quickly rushed forward to finish him off. Probably because of his desire to survive, Stephen Strange's kick was so strong that he actually sent the unlucky guy flying from the second floor. He rolled down the stairs and crashed into a pile of armor. Those suits of armor were so thick that this time, he was buried in the scattered ruins of armor without any movement. Whether he was dead or alive was hard to say.
The other two, who had just come out of the magic portal, saw this scene and immediately became more cautious.
Stephen Strange glanced at them, then continued to open a portal and went in.
At this time, Blaine was surprised to find that the remaining two were just standing there motionless. They neither chased him through the magic portal nor opened one of their own to pursue Stephen Strange. Not bad. Pretty smart. If the villains in Marvel could maintain this level of IQ at all times, they probably would not be beaten so badly by superheroes, nor would they be killed, injured, or sent to prison...
The two of them did not move. They waited quietly for Stephen Strange to show himself. Now it was Stephen Strange's turn to be dumbfounded. Just as he had said, the Sanctum was here, so how could he run away?
Blaine was just about to applaud Stephen Strange's cleverness, but someone came along and used Stephen Strange's own trick against him.
No, Stephen Strange was dumbfounded as soon as he showed his head. The two underlings who had been waiting in place punched Stephen Strange directly in the face. Fortunately, as a neurosurgeon, Stephen Strange's reaction speed and reflexes were absolutely top-notch. Just as the enemy's fists were about to hit him, the shield in Stephen Strange's hand blocked them in front of him.
…
A dull sound rang out, and Stephen Strange was blasted several meters away.
These underlings of Kaecilius were not good people either. After landing one hit, they were also crazy enough to rush in and finish the job. The transparent, sharp blade condensed from dark matter in his hand stabbed fiercely toward Stephen Strange's chest. If this stab landed, it would probably be a fatal situation.
Fortunately, Stephen Strange reacted quickly enough. At the same time they stabbed at him, he narrowly opened a magic portal and slipped inside.
Looking at the underling who was rushing up, perhaps temporarily blinded by the successful attack just now, he actually carried the sharp blade and also rushed into it.
It was just that the moment he entered, Stephen Strange came out from behind him. The man who had been about to rush in and kill Stephen Strange was only halfway through. Stephen Strange changed his gesture and directly controlled the magic portal, abruptly closing it together.
Poor Kaecilius's underling. There was another unlucky guy. It seemed the cleverness from earlier had used up all the IQ of his life.
By coincidence, the closing magic portal directly cut that person in half. Just kidding—this magic portal forcibly tore open a crack in space in order to achieve the effect of crossing through it.
And the edge of the crack was not only composed of an air blade, but also the sharp interface of the magic circle. Either kind could easily cut through a thick steel plate. The edge of the crack was probably sharper than the sharpest chainsaw on Earth. It had to be terrifying.
You had to know that with this magical portal, the force of closing it could even easily cut apart some weaker god-level physiques.
So, let alone such an ordinary body of flesh and blood. No matter how much dark matter magic he practiced, no matter how much he was a believer of Dormammu, even if Dormammu himself came today, he would not be able to save him.
When Blaine looked at him, apart from a pool of blood on the ground, it seemed that only two legs below the waist were left. As for the upper half of his body, he did not know which corner of space it had fallen into.
Looking at the incision, it was smooth and neat, without a trace of bone fragments. It was completely like being cut in the middle by a sharp knife. Why was it said to be fast? Because only a fast blade could create such an effect; a slow one could not do it at all. It could be seen how instantly the power of this magic portal had closed.
Looking at Stephen Strange and the man with only two legs left in front of him, Stephen Strange was also stunned. In the past, he had always been the one wearing a lab coat, desperately trying to save people on the operating table. When had he ever picked up a weapon and taken the initiative to kill someone? It was estimated that Stephen Strange had only come up with that method out of desperation just now, but he had not expected to kill him directly.
Of course, this could not be blamed on Stephen Strange. A normal person would have a strange mentality after killing someone for the first time. It was not only Stephen Strange; Blaine was no exception.
He still remembered that when Blaine carried out his first mission, he had also killed many people. At that time, Blaine had even made a Bounty Hunter rule for himself. That was to rest for a period of time after each mission, just to prevent himself from becoming a bloodthirsty monster who only knew how to kill.
Thinking about it now, Blaine himself found it a little funny. Over the years—unknowingly, Blaine had already been a Bounty Hunter for several years—the lives taken by Blaine's hands had long since become countless.
Not counting those on Earth, but on the Kree planet, there were also the aliens who had wantonly slaughtered the planet Xandar—that is, Ronan's army.
