At that time, the number was estimated to be too many to count. And this number was not calculated by single digits; it was already tens of thousands, or even more.
So now, Blaine was thinking about how ridiculous it had been to prevent himself from becoming a monster who only knew how to kill. Because Blaine had already killed people like cutting grass, and he no longer felt anything at all.
Those who were useless would be killed. Those who opposed him, those who stood against him—Blaine killed this kind of person without the slightest change in expression. Soft-hearted? That was something naive people did. As a Bounty Hunter, Blaine had always adhered to the principle that being kind to the enemy was being cruel to oneself.
Not only Stephen Strange, but the only remaining assailant also froze in place. He seemed to be thinking about countermeasures. Of course, it could also have been fear.
Looking at Kaecilius, he still appeared slow and casual. It seemed the two people who had fallen just now had nothing to do with him. As expected of a villain, he was ruthless and had the potential to be a truly bad guy.
"Ah!"
Looking at the boss who had already walked to the second floor, Kaecilius's only remaining underling also yelled to strengthen his courage, then rushed directly toward Stephen Strange.
Who knew that this time, Stephen Strange would not be so stupid. Even if he went through the magic portal again, the man behind him definitely would not be fooled like last time.
Before Blaine could figure out what the two of them were going to do, Stephen Strange suddenly released a spell, and something flashed past Blaine's eyes.
Moreover, this was not a failed spell that would be extinguished after flickering once, but one that had been cast outright. Blaine took a closer look. It was a magic portal.
In other words, did Stephen Strange have some other new idea? These magic tricks were being repeated over and over again.
However, the difference was that this time, the magic portal did not simply stop in place. If it had stayed in the same place, it would not have flashed past Blaine's eyes. Since it was said to be a flash, then the portal was naturally moving. With a swish, it rushed forward and flew toward Kaecilius's underling.
Another unlucky child of Kaecilius was swallowed by this magic portal for no apparent reason. No, he had just yelled and was facing Stephen Strange in the first place, while Stephen Strange opened another portal facing him. The two were already moving relative to each other, and with the added speed of the magic portal, it was too fast. The unlucky man had no time to scream, let alone react.
But if Stephen Strange wanted to kill him, he could not just rely on the magic portal. Because Blaine did not see the magic portal cut his body in half.
"Hm?"
"Interesting."
"As expected of a high-level talent in society."
Blaine was about to be puzzled, but in the next second, Stephen Strange's actions made Blaine feel a little surprised, though they were also reasonable.
Because the magic portal that had swallowed Kaecilius's underling had obviously opened at the location of one of the doors Blaine had seen just now.
Stephen Strange opened the glass door in the middle and directly kicked this guy, who still did not know what had happened, back inside.
At that moment, outside the arbitrary door, there was a desert. It had been transferred to the Sahara Desert when Blaine had casually played with it just now.
Stephen Strange kicked him into the desert, quickly closed the door, and turned the raised disc beside the doorknob several times.
After Stephen Strange turned the disc to switch scenes, the desert scene outside the arbitrary door instantly changed into a majestic mountain. Forests stood tall on the mountain, birds sang, and flowers bloomed, creating a stark contrast to the previous sky full of yellow sand.
Looking at that unlucky guy, who had somehow been thrown into the desert by Stephen Strange, Blaine could even imagine his bewildered expression and the greetings he would be sending.
After finishing off the three underlings, Stephen Strange finally let out a sigh of relief.
Although those three mentally handicapped underlings had already been dealt with, do not forget that there was still an even more powerful Kaecilius standing in front of Stephen Strange.
Seeing that his underlings had all gone offline, the two panda-like dark circles around Kaecilius's eyes seemed to darken a little. A weapon composed of dark matter energy was suddenly summoned in his hand, and he stabbed straight toward Stephen Strange.
Fortunately, Stephen Strange's reaction was not bad. With a clumsy roll, he narrowly escaped.
But Kaecilius still persisted, punching, kicking, and setting traps, waiting for Stephen Strange to fall into them.
Anyway, from the beam on the second floor, what Blaine saw was extremely thrilling. Every time he watched, he felt that Stephen Strange was hovering on the edge of death. In just a short while, Stephen Strange had already gained quite a few injuries.
The next battle was completely one-sided. One was a rookie who had only just come into contact with magical energy. The other was a monster who had not only practiced magic for many years, but also had dark matter energy behind him. When Kaecilius and Stephen Strange fought together, there was completely no viewing pleasure in the fight.
Moreover, Stephen Strange also proved from the side that in the face of absolute strength, any cleverness was useless. As long as one's own strength was powerful enough, even if you stood still and let the other party show off, it would not matter.
Bang, bang, bang...
Crash...
There was another sound of something being smashed into pieces. Blaine looked over. Kaecilius had actually kicked Stephen Strange directly down from the second floor.
As said before, the New York Sanctum was very large and very tall. It was said to be as high as four or five floors, but there were only two floors inside. From this, it could be seen how high each of these two floors had to be.
Coupled with Kaecilius's kick, which was a deadly move without any mercy at all, Stephen Strange was also defenseless. In an emergency, he might not even be able to use magic. In such a situation, if he could not use magic, then Stephen Strange would completely become an ordinary person.
An ordinary person falling from the height of three or four floors—this time, even if Stephen Strange did not die, he would be crippled. Broken arms and legs might even be considered light injuries.
Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom...
Suddenly, a rapid crashing sound attracted the attention of Kaecilius and Blaine. The two turned their heads to look at the same time. It turned out to be the transparent glass display case containing the red magic cloak.
