Although he lacked Aubin’s guidance, Peter’s purpose for entering the Lost Library was certain, so Peter did not panic.
Without much hesitation, now that the seal was open, Peter stepped directly into it.
Since he had no target and no one to guide him, he simply chose at random.
First, he came to the nearest bookshelf.
Peter reached out and took a magic book down from the bookshelf.
Afterwards, he activated the mental time-acceleration necklace given to him by Ancient One.
Immediately, he felt a peculiar energy wrap around him, and he felt that his thinking activity had become somewhat higher.
Not only that, but the necklace also seemed to carry an automatic translation function.
When he opened the book, what was recorded on it was a very Strange set of characters, seemingly not writing on Blue Star at all, and anyway Peter couldn’t understand it.
But after activating the acceleration necklace, these characters were automatically converted into meanings of text he could understand.
Combined with his hand speed, in just a little while, he finished reading this thick magic book.
This magic book recorded the life of an evil, forbidden mage who once lived in the real dimension, and later accidentally opened the passage to the Hell Dimension, and after absorbing the power of the Hell Dimension, he created many evil, forbidden spells of his own.
Among them, the most shocking was a sacrificial spell.
It was said that he once used this sacrificial spell to sacrifice the lives of an entire Planet to the Hell Dimension, thereby seizing an even more massive amount of evil power.
In the end, even the demons in Hell couldn’t stand it anymore and directly teamed up to wipe him out.
Of course, Peter actually suspected more that the demons in Hell just didn’t want one more competitor.
In the Marvel Universe, there are countless Hell Dimensions, and in every Hell Dimension, there is a lord who calls himself a Hell Lord.
These Hell Dimensions are essentially independent and separated from each other.
For example, Mephisto, the Hell Lord related to Spider-Man and Ghost Rider.
There is also Lucifer, who doesn’t have a high appearance rate but has indeed appeared a few times.
Even Thunder God Thor’s sister, Asgard’s Goddess of Death Hela, also has a Hela Underworld.
In other words, every Hell Dimension nowadays already has an owner.
If a guy powerful enough to challenge them really crawled out, and could also enter the Hell Dimension, it would definitely threaten their rule.
Obviously, these Hell Lords, who had lived for who knows how many years and months, could not let such a thing happen.
Anyway, in the end, this evil mage was killed, and even his name was erased.
Only this book, which recorded a story and many evil spells he had studied, ended up drifting into this Lost Library.
Peter definitely wouldn’t use this kind of evil sacrificial spell.
The water of the Marvel Universe is very deep; basically, everything one does can be known by others in some way, and ultimately what one does will inevitably bring about certain bad consequences.
Furthermore, Peter himself possesses the Superman Bloodline, already having a stable and safe growth potential, and completely doesn’t need to do such heinous things.
Afterwards, he put this book back on the bookshelf and pulled out another one.
The third book, the fourth book…
Peter was frantically absorbing the knowledge that had drifted into this Lost Library.
Unwittingly, he acquired yet another special ability belonging exclusively to Superman—[Super Thinking].
Under this state, his brain activity would greatly increase, and at the same time, his ability to receive and process information would also greatly increase along with it.
This made his speed of reading magic books faster and faster.
Meanwhile, in the Universe of 2012.
On the streets near the New York Sanctum Sanctorum.
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
Two figures appeared.
One was Steve Rogers, and the other was Stephen Strange.
Both of them came from the future.
Because the original Pym Particles were not enough, they first went to find the resurrected Hank Pym, letting him enter the Quantum Realm to gather enough Pym Particles before following them over.
Hank Pym originally held quite a lot of hostility towards Tony because of Howard, but nowadays, his daughter was also infected with the demonized virus.
After appearing here, Strange originally wanted to go to the Sanctum Sanctorum immediately, but found that Steve had stopped in place, staring blankly at his left hand.
“Captain?” Just as Strange was about to speak, when he saw Steve’s left hand, he was also stunned for a moment.
Seen from before, Steve’s left hand, which had turned dark purple and swollen to a much larger size due to being infected with the demonized virus, had actually returned to its original appearance at this moment!
The demonized virus had actually disappeared!
“This virus is indeed targeted at a certain Universe; after coming to another Universe, it just disappeared!” Steve carefully examined his hand, his expression quite excited.
Actually, this time the two of them came over, each having their own purpose.
Strange had thought about it over and over, still unable to let go of the doubts in his heart, which was why he came to this timeline, preparing to communicate with his teacher about issues concerning Peter.
As for Steve’s arrival, it was because of Tony’s arrangement.
As it turned out, after two days of research, Tony found that with his current abilities, it was completely impossible to eradicate the demonized virus.
What worried him even more was that both he and his wife Pepper were infected, and now their daughter Morgan could only be taken care of by Happy.
Although they were temporarily preserved under Peter’s help, this after all was not a long-term solution.
Therefore, he made preparations in two directions.
The first, on his side, was to research a solution based on Peter’s web-binding, at least researching a way to maintain the status quo without relying on Peter.
The second was to expand outward.
He thought of what Peter had discussed with him before: this demonized virus, besides the Dark Dimension in Strange’s words, was also related to the Quantum Realm.
Could it be that entering the Quantum Realm would wash away the virus?
If that could be achieved, it would give them one more fallback option.
Once they subsequently failed to resist the demonized virus and faced a desperate situation, they could at least bring a portion of people through the quantum tunnel to other Worlds to avoid the disaster.
With the current strength of the Watchers Alliance, wanting to find a suitable Planet in another Universe as a new settlement was still something they could accomplish.
Although doing this was a bit immoral, because it was very likely to bring the demonized virus to other Universes and cause that Universe to be infected as well.
But for the lives of his family, Tony could truly let go of everything at certain times.
The first research required time, but the second could be experimented with immediately.
Therefore, he decided to perform the second operation first.
However, after he told Steve this idea, Steve stopped him.
