Chapter 1897: Long Time No See, Batman

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Luke, who had made up his mind to ‘negotiate’ with the giant octopus, wasn’t in a hurry to chase after it this time.
From the battle earlier and the giant octopus’s mental fluctuations as it escaped, it seemed that this guy had some sort of goal in mind.
It could only be said that Wade was unlucky.
He was like an ant that had been casually stepped on as someone walked past.
However, the giant octopus wasn’t human, and had swallowed him instead.!!
Luke had dug out a hole in its head – that could be considered payback for Wade being turned into sh*t.
As he tailed the giant octopus, he recovered from his injuries.
For the previous attack to be able to deal more than 50% damage to the armor and defense gear meant critical damage for the person in the armor.
Thankfully, it was the Level 2 clone, which was twice as strong as the Level 1 clone, and had Elementary Self-Healing.
Coupled with the credit points Luke consumed to use Light of Life, he recovered more than 90% after 20 minutes.
It was still dark in the water as he moved forward.
Soon, the giant octopus sped up again, and it roared excitedly.
Luke’s heart jumped. This guy didn’t usually cry out, except when he hurt it.
On the map, there was a small island 20 kilometers in front of the giant octopus.
This island didn’t have a name. The Svalbard Islands were 300 kilometers north.
The island didn’t have any resources, nor was there anything special about it, so it was uninhabited.
Luke frowned and decided to fly to the island first. He released a mid-sized drone, and scanned the island with his suit at the same time.
As he got busy, he vaguely sensed something abnormal.
He slowly turned his head, only to see a ring of sparks spinning rapidly not far behind him.
This dazzling ring of sparks expanded from more than one meter in diameter to three meters before stopping.
A tall and thin figure in a yellow hooded robe walked out and hovered in the air. The ring of sparks disappeared.
Luke raised an eyebrow.
From what he could see, it had been a completely different scene inside the ring of sparks.
He happened to catch sight of a few conspicuous skyscrapers.
Polaris compared the image with obvious landmarks, and obtained the location of the scene inside the ring of sparks.
Bleecker Street in Manhattan, New York.
Even Luke, who now regarded the crown prince of Asgard as nothing, couldn’t help but take a deep breath as he looked at the tall and thin figure in the yellow robe in front of him.
The newcomer wasn’t like some bigshots in the movies who needed to preserve an air of mystery the entire time.
She took off her hood to reveal a round, bald head, and met Luke’s eyes.
She had a high nose, deep eyes, thin lips, a wide mouth, and high cheekbones.
This was absolutely the image of a master.
At that moment, there was a faint smile on her face, which was somehow both gentle and cold at the same time.
After a brief silence, the bald female bigshot’s smile deepened, and she nodded slightly. “Long time no see, Batman.”
Luke’s heart skipped a beat, but he wasn’t too shaken.
There would always be people in this world who were beyond imagination, and this person in front of him was definitely one of them.
He didn’t answer directly, but said, “You can call me Big Dipper or Wilson. What should I call you?”
The bald female bigshot’s smile deepened, as if she had known what his answer would be. “Ancient One. Or…”
She tilted her head. “Sorcerer Supreme?”
Luke was stunned. Are you sure you’re following the right script?
He indicated that he was Big Dipper, and then said that his name was Wilson.
The bigshot said that she was called the Ancient One, and was Sorcerer Supreme.
She also winked as she tilted her head, as if she was chatting with a friend.
Bigshot, are we really that close? Luke started to question his own memory.
This bigshot had seen him fly back and forth in Manhattan many times as she drank milk tea on her rooftop, but they had never officially met.
Even as he was feeling bewildered, Luke paused for a moment before he bowed slightly. “It’s an honor to meet you, Ancient One.”
From the moment he heard the name “Ancient One,” he knew that he had hit the jackpot.
The Ancient One hovered in the air with her hands behind her back. “You’re welcome. We’ve actually met many times.”
Luke mumbled to himself, Are you counting all the times on top of the roof?
The Ancient One, however, seemed to know what he was thinking. “No, we’ve only met many times in a million different possibilities…”
At that point, her smile turned gentler. She turned away lightly to look at the ocean.
In the dark sky, her voice was soft but carried clearly. “You… are a very special existence.”
Luke’s heart jumped. The other party might really know about the system and his rebirth.
He simply listened attentively.
Online users might berate this mysterious bigshot as a plot spoiler.
But in real life, it would be a big secret for which a lot of people would call this bigshot “Dad.” Hm, or should she be called “Ancestor”?
Ignoring his expression, the Ancient One continued, “You’ll face a lot of powerful enemies, but you’ll also save a lot of ordinary people, and even do unbelievable things.”
Luke’s heart raced. Wasn’t this the legendary spoiler? Wasn’t this a great prophetic ability or whatever?
The Ancient One looked away. “That’s why I hope you won’t steal that person from me when the day comes.”
Even the unflustered Luke was stunned. “Huh?”
Steal someone? Steal someone from this Sorcerer Supreme? What a joke!
Whether it was the demon Old Mephisto, who had lived for who knew how long, the demon with chicken wings which Luke had killed, or what knowledge Luke had gleaned from the ancient Enchantress, the Sorcerer Supreme, the Ancient One, was a taboo existence to them.
They all knew that this figure was very powerful, but was even more of a mystery.
Sorcerers were quite strange in this world. They weren’t the same as in many novels.
Of the three villains, Old Mephisto probably knew the most about the Ancient One.
His clones had been destroyed twice by the Ancient One, but he actually wasn’t clear on the Ancient One’s background. He only knew that the Ancient One belonged to the Vishanti.
That was enough.
Safety first. Old Mephisto resolved that his real body would never leave Hell – he wasn’t stupid enough to serve up his head on a platter to the Ancient One.
The Ancient One sighed. “The effects of your Light of Life and Life 1 are too good.”
Luke was stupefied.
By ‘stealing someone,’ the Ancient One probably wasn’t referring to a bad guy.
Luke wasn’t that kind to heal bad guys.
So, it was very likely that it was a good person or an ordinary person connected to the Ancient One. Then, why couldn’t he save them?
