Dr. Strange's expression tightened slightly at the sight of the raven's prophecy; divine retribution was not to be underestimated.
Fortunately, he gained a valuable opportunity after being warned by Cropley.
This allows him to prepare in advance or eliminate danger before it occurs.
Doctor Strange himself prefers to take the initiative, unlike the former, he is always passive.
"Wait a minute, don't be surprised."
With that thought in mind, Doctor Strange no longer hesitated and immediately saw Banner and Carter arguing in front of him.
"What?".
Hearing this, Banner still looked somewhat puzzled.
The next second, they saw the strange "167" doctor in the basement extend his finger, and with a chant, a shining measuring door suddenly appeared in front of them.
"Oh."
Looking at the measured door before him, the interior of which was completely different from the basement, Banner could barely control his emotions and suppress the sigh that wanted to escape his lips. Behind him, Carter's eyes were filled with the same shock.
Although he had accepted the fact that he had died fifty or sixty years ago and was reborn in the body of Captain America Steve Rogers, Carter was still shocked to see the appearance of the dimensional gate up close.
It's important to know that Doctor Strange didn't use this tactic in his fight with her just now.
"Do not talk."
Warning the two people behind him, Doctor Strange stepped across the portal.
Watching Doctor Strange disappear into the portal, Banner stepped forward and followed behind him, only slightly behind Carter. He hesitated as he looked towards the portal through the basement.
"Yes!"
On the other side of the portal, in the New York City Medical Examiner's Office.
The two forensic pathologists gasped in surprise at the sudden appearance of Doctor Strange and his team, but before they could react, they saw Stephen pointing a finger at them.
Tremble, tremble!
The coroner immediately lost consciousness.
As Banner and Carter passed through the portal, they saw where the coroner had fallen.
"What I'm about to do is a bit scary, and it's not appropriate for them to see it."
Under Banner's surprised gaze, Dr. Strange explained casually.
As he spoke, he glanced at the two dismembered corpses in the study.
"what happened?"
Following the direction Dr. Strange was looking, Banner noticed the shriveled corpse, its exposed abdomen and internal organs, which made his face turn somewhat pale.
"Are these the clues you're looking for?"
Compared to Banner's unease, Carter was remarkably calm: as a World War II surviving agent, she was used to this kind of situation. On the battlefield, she had experienced far more horrific scenes.
"exactly."
Nodding, Dr. Strange did not hesitate for long due to time constraints.
"Keep an eye out for the commotion outside."
He reminded the two people standing behind him, then walked over to the two desiccated corpses, glanced at them, and casually picked up their heads, separating them head to head.
When he saw Doctor Strange raise his head, Banner opened his mouth as if to say something, but his gaze fell on the dried-out head hanging at his waist, and he suddenly felt that he didn't want to say anything anymore.
And so, under the silent gaze of the two men, Dr. Strange closed his eyes over the withered head in his hands.
Immediately afterwards, chanting filled the coroner's office. Dr. Strange raised his head and began to dance an exaggerated dance around his body. Under the bright office lights, his shadow trembled and swayed to the rhythm of the dance, looking quite bizarre.
In his office, Dr. Strange continued to dance the ancient prayer dance.
This is the awakening of shamanism, a primitive and ancient religion that believes in the immortality of the soul and all things.
Now, Dr. Strange is using the power of shamans to summon the spirits within the mummified corpse.
Generally speaking, Voodoo is more suitable than Samanian magic for summoning the souls of the dead, but he told Dr. Strange that it was the Voodoo god, Baron Shah Sabbath, who had offended him, and that if he dared to use Voodoo, Baron Shah Sabbath would respond to his soul immediately.
Therefore, Dr. Strange had to resort to the more complicated shamanistic magic.
Although the ritual is rather complicated, at least so far we haven't offended the shaman's spirit, so we can temporarily borrow their power.
Then, the shadows behind Doctor Strange began to dance, as if they were a group of demons, accompanying his ancient dance steps.
“A.”
At the same time, the abnormally withered head in his hand also emitted a painful cry.
The scream came so suddenly that Banner was caught off guard and almost choked when he heard it.
On the other hand, Carter instinctively walked toward the door of the coroner's office to make sure the scream wouldn't attract unnecessary attention.
The good news is that there are very few problems.
Through the crack in the office door, Carter could see the bustling crowd in the hallway outside, and it seemed that few people noticed what was happening inside the office.
“I can’t breathe!”
In Doctor Strange's hands, the shriveled head opened its eyes, opened its mouth, and let out a painful cry.
From Banner's position, it was clear that the previously silent head suddenly came to life, opened its mouth, and made a sound.
"You don't need to breathe."
Holding a human head in his hand, Doctor Strange answered calmly.
"Tell me, Freud, who killed you?"
Wizards have limited time to summon the dead, and Dr. Strange clearly didn't want to waste too much time, so he quickly inquired about the withered head in his hand.
Freud was the name of the dead man mentioned in the newspaper, and it was with his help that Doctor Strange was able to successfully awaken Freud's spirit.
"It's a woman!"
Freud responded to Dr. Strange's question with his dry lips and an extremely hoarse voice.
"She's a monster; her hair is alive."
A similar scene in Chapter 710
The scene before his death clearly left a deep impression on Freud, one that he did not forget even when he became a ghost.
“Tell me what she looks like, Freud!”
On his withered head, Freud turned his gray eyes to look at Doctor Strange standing before him and answered in a low voice.
"She had long, thick black hair and strange jewelry that resembled wild animal teeth hanging from her waist."
After doing all this, the dead soul in Freud's withered head seemed to become somewhat desolate. His eyes scanned everything in the medical examiner's office, finally stopping on the forked corpse, and he suddenly seemed to wake up from a dream.
"So I'm already dead?"
As Freud finished speaking, the still-living, withered head instantly lost all sound.

In the investigator's office, Xu Fu, an unassuming man, watched the entire process of summoning Doctor Strange and couldn't help but sigh.
After determining the unusual circumstances surrounding the body's death, he decided to leave.
Just a second before he was about to leave, a portal suddenly appeared in the study. Then, as Xu Fu watched, he saw Doctor Strange and his team walk out of the portal, put the coroner down, and then dance around the shriveled corpse for a while.
A gaze fell upon the four clocks that represented Stephen Strange.
As Xu Fu's gaze followed, Strange's figure flashed by like shattered glass, followed by an astonishing scene: a fragmented image of himself shaking hands with Strange appeared, and at the same time, the image jumped, and Strange's appearance began to change from the energetic surgeon in the hospital to a person.
In later scenes, Strange's actions begin to go awry as he is influenced by various strange forms of witchcraft, culminating in a scene where he reads a parchment scroll in a creepy room.
So, what about the changes that happened to Strange, no, to Doctor Strange? Do they have anything to do with me?
The scenes shown in Stephen Strange's Time film surprised Xu Fu to some extent.
He clearly did not expect that his previous contact at the hospital would indirectly lead to Stephen Strange's transformation into Doctor Strange.
Xu Fu was unable to determine the exact reason for this for some time.
But one thing he was certain of: the Doctor Strange standing before him was clearly different from the one he remembered.
This was not only because the other party was not wearing the signature cloak, but also because his methods of witchcraft were not the ones Xu Fu knew.
Compared to Doctor Strange, the images presented on Bruce Banner's time fragments are much simpler.
Because of the images flashing in the fragments, Xu Fu knew the process by which Banner transformed into the Hulk, and more importantly, the reason why his opponent suddenly disappeared at the end of the previous battle.
Clearly, none of this would have been possible without Doctor Strange's help.
With the power of the portal, avoiding finding Xu Fuzhen would be very easy; after all, the two abilities he discovered, namely super hearing and super vision, both have a range of no more than ten kilometers. The portal created by Doctor Strange could easily exceed that radius.
