Chapter 172
The flowers have all withered while I waited for you. Do you know that my time is precious?" Chen Ye heard Strange's dissatisfied complaints as soon as he went downstairs. "Don't worry, good things always have to wait until the end. Wait for me to eat something, and then we'll go." Chen Ye smiled and comforted him, while picking up the breakfast on the table. Strange looked at Chen Ye helplessly. If someone else asked him to wait, he would have left with a cold face. But Chen Ye is different. He is not only his college classmate, but also his friend for many years. More importantly, only this guy can give him superpowers. Strange knows that if someone else tells him that he can have superpowers, he will probably ignore it directly, or even ridicule the other party as a liar, which is extremely brainless. But Strange knew that Chen Ye could really give him superpowers.
He had postponed many surgeries today and had only stayed here for one day. God knows how many people called him after he took two days off, asking him to go back for surgery.
Chen Ye quickly finished his breakfast and didn't have time to make tea. Strange next door kept staring at him, which made him very helpless.
"Let's go," Chen Ye said helplessly.
Hearing Chen Ye's words, Strange stood up and walked out of the restaurant.
Chen Ye asked, "Where are you going?"
"Drive, my car is not outside," Strange said as a matter of course.
He felt puzzled. If he didn't drive, would he walk there?
That Kamar-Taj looked very far away from the Big Apple. Could it be that Kamar-Taj could be in Hell's Kitchen, just a few steps away?
At this moment, Strange was still thinking like an ordinary person, and he would never think that he couldn't get to Kamar-Taj by car.
"Driving to Kamar-Taj? Strange, you have such a rich imagination." Chen Ye thought to himself.
Seeing Strange about to walk to his car, Chen Ye immediately stopped him and said, "No need to drive, just follow me."
After that, Chen Ye quickly drew circles with his hands, as if outlining a mysterious pattern in the air.
Soon, a golden halo appeared out of thin air in front of Strange.
The halo flashed with dazzling light, as if leading to another mysterious world
Looking at the halo in front of him, Strange was stunned. He couldn't understand what was going on at all.
"This should be the skill you used when blocking it," he pointed to the portal and said, and looked forward to the next place to go.
"Hurry up, after taking you there, I still have a lot of things to do in Hell's Kitchen." Chen Ye said and entered the portal.
Seeing this, Strange hurriedly followed.
This was also the first time Chen Ye came to Kamar-Taj, the legendary holy land of secret magic.
The ancient and solemn buildings stood majestically.
However, Chen Ye was mentally prepared after all, while Strange looked around in surprise. This ancient and mysterious atmosphere immediately gave Strange some confidence that he could learn superpowers.
"Chen Ye is so reliable," Strange thought to himself.
"Where is the person you want me to meet?" Strange couldn't wait to have superpowers.
"How should I know? This is my first time in Kamar-Taj. Can't I just ask someone?" Chen Ye shrugged.
After hearing what Chen Ye said, Strange decided to take back his evaluation of Chen Ye's reliability.
As the two walked deeper into Kamar-Taj, they came to the martial arts field.
There was a group of apprentice wizards in plain clothes practicing horse stance.
Strange looked at their movements with envy in his eyes.
"Wow, this is so cool! Is this Chinese Kung Fu?" Strange exclaimed.
"You will soon become one of them," Chen Ye said.
"Ah? Do you need to practice Chinese Kung Fu to have superpowers?" Strange asked in confusion.
"Who told you it was a superpower? It's a secret method, or it can be magic," Chen Ye explained.
"Ah? In this world, you can really learn magic, and there are magicians, but why do they dress like monks?" Strange asked in confusion. He had thought of Qigong and superpowers, but he had never thought of magic.
These monks were different from the magicians he imagined.
At this moment, a black monk walked out of the crowd.
His eyes were serious and deep, as if he could see through people's hearts.
He walked up to Strange and said, "Do you think we should
Should I wear a black robe, an exaggerated cowhide hat, and fly on a broomstick? "
Strange was embarrassed by the question, and he quickly waved his hand to explain: "No, no, that's not what I meant."
The monk nodded, then turned to Chen Ye and Strange and asked: "Who are you? Why did you come to Kamar-Taj?"
Chen Ye immediately replied: "We are here to find Master Ancient One. My name is Chen Ye, and this is my friend Strange."
While answering, Chen Ye looked at the black monk.
He guessed the identity of the monk, and at the same time observed his expression and movements.
When the monk heard Chen Ye's name, a smile appeared on his face. He introduced himself: "It turns out to be you, Mr. Chen Ye. Hello, I am Mordo. "
Chen Ye nodded slightly. He felt that there seemed to be a hint of malice hidden under the smile of this Mage Mordo.
He couldn't help but start to be alert. Could it be that someone wanted to harm him as soon as he came to Kamar-Taj?
He quickly used the telepathy he got from Professor X to read Mordo's mind.
"So this is Chen Ye. I don't know why the Supreme Mage would let an outsider maintain the peace of the multiverse!"
"Let an outsider be the Supreme Mage! I am stronger in terms of qualifications and magic power! Why not give it to me and give it to him. "
After Chen Ye finished reading his mind, he realized that he was being blamed for no reason. It was obvious that Strange next door was the candidate for the Supreme Sorcerer.
However, Chen Ye was not surprised at all that Mordo had this idea. The Mordo in the Marvel movie was like an ascetic, but the Mordo in the comic version was a smiling tiger who always wanted to become the Supreme Sorcerer.
In some parallel universes, Mordo did become the Supreme Sorcerer and joined the Illuminati.
At this time, Strange on the side also came forward and said to Mordo: "Mr. Mordo, please take us to see the Ancient One. We have important things to discuss with her."
Strange's words made Mordo's smile a little stiff.
He observed Strange carefully. For some reason, his sixth sense told him that he hated this pretentious guy very much.
He even felt a sense of inexplicable crisis in Strange.
"Could this arrogant guy be my future competitor? "Modu thought in his heart.
After all, ordinary people are not qualified to see the Ancient One directly.
However, the Ancient One chose to see both of them at the same time, which made Modu begin to doubt his own status.
Modu took a deep breath and tried to keep himself calm.
"The Supreme Mage has been waiting for a long time, please follow me" Modu said and turned around to lead the way for Chen Ye and the others.
