Bab 175: Chapter 175: Dimension Invasion, Dormammu, Mephisto
"Dimension invasion!"
Kaecilius repeated, looking at Lockhart, his eyes slowly becoming serious. After becoming a sorcerer of Kamar Taj, he had always been responsible for resisting dimensional invasions, especially after becoming the guardian of the New York Sanctuary. He knew very well how evil and weird some dimensions were. If not handled properly, not only would a large number of ordinary people die, but even sorcerers would suffer, with their souls unable to be freed.
Facing Lockhart's question, Kaecilius said in a solemn voice, "Lockhart, since you have practiced the magic of Kamar Taj, you can be considered a member of Kamar Taj. And resisting dimensional invasion has been our responsibility for thousands of years."
He paused slightly and raised his voice as if to emphasize something. "When you became a sorcerer, you signed the same contract as we did. You should be very clear about Article 2 of the contract."
Lockhart nodded and repeated, "Article 2 of the contract: The contractor is obliged to resist the dimensional invasion and kill the enemies of the evil camp gods."
Lockhart then said in a positive tone, "Kaecilius, don't worry. Even if there were no contract, based on our relationship, I would stand with Kamar Taj and contribute to resisting dimensional invasions."
Kaecilius nodded and continued, "With your current strength, you can also learn more about dimensions. There are many types of dimensions. Most dimensions are normal, just like our Earth—stable and orderly. Even if there is chaos, it is limited to the interior of the world. In many dimensions, other dimensions are not even noticeable."
"But some dimensions are different, those where the Dimension Demon Gods reside." Kaecilius paused and said solemnly, "Some dimensions have masters, and these masters include beings of justice, evil, and neutrality. With the help of Vishanti, we belong to the justice camp, while our enemies, the Dimensional Demon Gods, belong to the evil camp."
"Evil camp's dimensional demons are keen on invading, devouring other dimensions, and increasing their territory and strength. When a dimension is swallowed, the creatures in that dimension become slaves of the dimension demon."
Lockhart was thoughtful, recalling the future where Kaecilius surrendered to Dormammu in the Dark Dimension. He listened as Kaecilius continued, "And we, Kamar Taj, prevent the Earth from being swallowed by dimensional demons. Among the dimensional demons who spy on our Earth, the most famous are Dormammu and Mephisto."
Kaecilius's face turned cold as he recalled something. "Lockhart, since you live in New York, you will definitely meet the believers of these Dimension Demon Gods. The two dimensional demon gods have very different methods of doing things. You must be careful."
"How specifically?" Lockhart asked curiously.
"Because of the Sorcerer Supreme, many dimensional demons, including these two, dare not approach the Earth directly," Kaecilius said with pride in the Sorcerer Supreme's strength. "But many dimensional demon gods use indirect methods to make it difficult for people to guard against them."
"Dormammu is best at bringing his power to Earth, creating believers in the Dark Dimension, and causing chaos on Earth. Mephisto is even more hateful." Kaecilius's tone turned cold at the mention of Mephisto. "Mephisto is cunning, seducing humans to sign contracts voluntarily and obtain their souls. Due to some rules, we cannot take direct action against willing humans without proper reasons. The secrecy of the contracts makes it difficult to detect Mephisto's methods. Many sorcerers have died because of him, their souls ending up in his hands."
Kaecilius's face was gloomy, his words cold. Lockhart was thoughtful, realizing that he would inevitably have to deal with these two dimensional demons in the future. One played with darkness, the other with souls—truly evil existences.
Lockhart thought about Kaecilius's current hostility toward the Dimension Demon but his future surrender to Dormammu. He realized the methods of these dimensional demons were truly insidious. The rules Kaecilius mentioned were likely due to the Sorcerer Supreme forcing the dimensional demons to sign agreements not to act directly.
Lockhart nodded slightly and said in a deep voice, "Don't worry, Kaecilius. I will be more careful in the future."
He then changed the subject to a more curious question, "Kaecilius, why did Morin stress that I would encounter these invaders in New York? Wouldn't they avoid the three major temples? If it were me, I would leave here as soon as possible."
Kaecilius explained, "Because of the three major temples' locations. They are in New York, London, and Hong Kong because these points are the weak points of our Earth's space. The vicinity of the temple is the best choice for the invasion of dimensional demons. They can project relatively complete power. Elsewhere, their power would be very small or have little impact. Believers of Dormammu find it easier to summon their master near the temples. Changing locations costs a lot of energy, and the success probability is low."
"So, in New York, you will definitely encounter Dormammu's followers and the subordinates of other dimensional demon gods," Kaecilius said.
Lockhart felt a bit weird. Generally, locations like the three major temples should be the safest. Why did it feel like the temples were sources of danger? Was it deliberately arranged by the Sorcerer Supreme to limit the battlefield and prevent the impact from expanding while training Kamar Taj's sorcerers?
While Lockhart was deep in thought, a portal with sparks quietly opened next to Kaecilius. A Kamar Taj sorcerer wearing a dark yellow sorcerer uniform emerged, glanced at Lockhart, and walked to Kaecilius's side, whispering in his ear.
Lockhart stopped asking further and watched with interest. He noticed Kaecilius's expression change slightly, but due to magic or special conversation skills, he didn't hear any sound. Soon, the sorcerer left, and Kaecilius had a smile on his face, as if a fox was proud of seeing an old hen.
Kaecilius smiled at Lockhart and said, "Lockhart, didn't you just want to know about the dimensional invasion? Just in time, the detection sorcerer from Kamar Taj sent a message. We found a Dormammu believer. Do you want to join the hunting operation?"
