Chapter 257
This hooded man is called Mordo, a strange name, and he doesn't seem to be a good deal person, his whole body is full of the smell of cultivator of painstaking cultivation.
However, for Ancient One's orders, he executed them very thoroughly. After Ancient One interrupted his fight with Cyber's, he immediately put away the beast head stick in his hand and put his hood back on. Take it, and without a word, walked between the strange-faced Strange and the harboring malicious intentions Cyber. He stood at the street and looked back at them.
Cyber and Strange stood there and there was no movement, Mordo’s calm gray eyes flashed with impatience,
"Are you going to stay here for the New Year? Follow me Come, the reception hall is in front!"
Cyber shrugged, looked back at Strange,
"Can you still go?"
Strange nodded, difficult He took out a piece of clean white gauze from his pocket and attached it to the wound. It was just a scrape from the bullet, which was not serious, and as the best surgeon ever, he was not worried that the wound would get worse.
After a delay of a few minutes, Strange picked up his baggage from the ground. He looked at the watch on his left hand. In the chase just now, the watch was completely damaged, even the hands. It's broken, and this watch is probably the last valuable thing on Strange's body.
I don't know why he insists on keeping it with him.
The surgeon looked at his wrist. There was a touch of pain, a touch of reluctance, and even a touch of determination in his eyes, but in the end, his eyes became gentle, he was cautiously Put the broken watch in his pocket, stood up silently, and laughed at Cyber.
"Let's go."
Cyber glanced at him, did not say anything, just put the golden blade on the base of the previous wooden box, less than 2 seconds, A complete wooden box appeared on his shoulder again. He took off his mask and put on sunglasses, just like an ordinary backpacker, blew a whistle, followed Mordo swaggeringly, and moved towards the reception hall.
Sure enough, Mordo didn’t lie to them. He walked around for less than 5 minutes. Outside a small wooden door facing the street, Mordo’s fingers drew a continuous line on the rustic wooden door. Three complicated runes, half of the wooden door was opened, he walked in first, Cyber didn't doubt his second walked in, and Strange was a little scared, but still followed Cyber and walked in.
After realizing Cyber's battle strength just now, he was full of confidence in Cyber, but Cyber himself did not have much confidence, especially when he was about to face Ancient One.
The dark trail is like a threshold that must be passed to enter a house, but the length is unusual. Cyber can feel that they have been in the dark for at least 3 minutes, but they still can’t see the front At the end, the last Strange's breathing became hurried.
He is just an ordinary person. Before he met Cyber, he had nothing to do with this magnificent and dangerous world.
Probably seeing Strange's nervousness, Mordo suddenly said,
"Relax, the space tunnel will put pressure on the spirit of the ordinary person. If you don’t want to walk halfway, you will be If you’re overwhelmed, you’d better clean up your mood."
It’s not so much explanation and comfort, it’s more like a cold copy of the text, there is no comfort in it, but anyway, no matter how long it is. There is an end to all of his journey, and after another 3 minutes, a sudden light envelops the three of them.
After the light dissipated, what came into view was an antique bedroom, which looked like a library, occasionally I could see people dressed like Mordo walking around in it, mostly While reading some kind of book, Mordo stepped forward respectfully and saluted the woman in white robe who was standing in front of the large bookshelf and flipping through a heavy book.
Cyber did not salute, but the jealousy in his eyes has also disappeared a lot. He is a person who knows how to respect power, especially when facing real power, he will not spare his respect.
Only Strange looked around curiously. He turned around abruptly, only to realize that there was simply no passage behind them, and there was just another bookshelf full of books.
"This is...Is this the world?"
Ancient One turned around, at this time, all the mysterious auras on her seemed to fade in this brief moment She looked like an ordinary woman, but the bald head was very conspicuous. She held the book in her hand and sat comfortably on the chair next to her, lifting the head and looking at Cyber.
"Two hours after you came here, three people died because of you, Cyber, the bloody smell on your body probably won't be washed clean in this lifetime."
Cyber shrugged , Ignoring Ancient One mage’s ridicule, he looked around, and said very easily,
"So now...Am I considered to have come to Kamar-Taj?"
Mordo, who was standing next to the Ancient One mage, raised his eyes and glanced at him, shook the head, and replied for Ancient One,
"No...you are still far behind."
Ancient One waved his hand, Mordo stepped back with respectful eyes, and left with the rest of the library. The old man who left at the end also closed the door intimately, so there was nothing left in this huge library. three people.
"Mordo has an old-fashioned personality, but he is a very good warrior, one of my proud dísciples."
Ancient One turned a page and said casually," In the fight against Foreign Domain enemies, he rarely failed. Maybe you let him experience the feeling of being on the verge of failure for the first time, but he was right, Cyber, here is a long way from Kamar-Taj..."
Ancient One lifts the head, her gaze crossed Cyber and put her eyes on Strange, she waved to Cyber,
"I want to talk to Mr. Strange first. Would you mind? Cyber ."
Cyber wouldn’t mind. He waved his hand, then put down the wooden box in his hand, sat on a chair on one side, picked up a cigarette, and lit it at the moment , He felt Ancient One's gaze on his back, and he obediently put the cigarette back into the cigarette case, spread his hands, and began to close his eyes and rest his mind.
The Supreme Master was satisfied and nodded. She looked at Strange, with a light movement of her finger, a cup of hot tea flew from the table and fell into Strange's hands.
"What are you looking for here? Mr. Strange?"
Although the desolate former neurosurgeon has never heard of the legend about Ancient One, he is so obedient when he sees Cyber , He immediately felt that the woman in front of him should be a real great character, so he put down the hot tea in his hand, earnestly said,
"I will find a way to heal my hands..."
"But I can't cure your hands!"
Ancient One casually turned over another page, "I am not a doctor, I am just a witch dressed up as God, playing the Devil , Um, this is what you call it, and don’t you have this idea in your heart now?"
This kind of unusual answer made Strange stunned. He looked at Ancient One, Ancient One also looked at him, her beautiful eyes full of frankness, she was telling the truth, she really couldn't heal Strange's hands from a traditional perspective.
And this kind of frankness was misunderstood as a kind of indifference. This greatly stimulated Strange's more fragile mood. He gritted his teeth and whispered,
"But you Pangborn was cured! A patient whose spine was shattered into 17 pieces and was supposed to be paralyzed. When I saw him last time, he was playing basketball with a group of youngsters who were 20 years younger than him...Master, I really do , I really came here with all my hopes."
Strange took a deep breath, both of his hands together, put it on my chest, and said respectfully,
"You are my last hope."
"Pangborn...this is a familiar name."
Ancient One nodded, "He came to Kamar- 2 years ago. Taj, what he said at the time is almost exactly the same as what you are saying now, but I feel true sincerity in his words, but I can only feel in your language that looks impressive but is worthless...Tell me, Strange, in your heart , Do you really believe that someone in this world can heal that kind of injury?"
Without waiting for Strange’s answer, Ancient One said again,
"no! You don’t believe ！Because in this field, you feel that you are the real God, a patient sentenced to death by you, but recovered completely elsewhere, you feel that all this is unimaginable, you are here to heal yourself ?Or for to uncover my tricks?"
"Look, I'm very busy, I don't have time to say these things to a person who is full of arguing ideas, so let's be honest..."
Ancient One's gaze became serious. She stood up and walked slowly to Strange's who was already speechless.
"Do you... believe in the existence of the soul? "
Strange looked at her suspiciously, with that look perfectly clear and told Ancient One that he didn't believe it! Even if he has seen Cyber burn evil people with his eyes, he has seen Mordo's magic, but he still doesn't believe...
"This world is material, and nothing can survive without material, I know There is Mutant in this world, and I have had patients with Mutant, but even they can’t make Creations out of thin air!"
Strange took a step back, "I haven’t seen it, I haven’t read any of them. There are scientifically based books on the soul. I am not a believer, so I don’t believe it!"
"But Pangborn can recover...it depends on the power of his soul!"
Ancient One whispered, "If you don't believe in its existence at first... Then how do you grasp this last hope?"
"Heavens!"
Strange some Crazed holding his hair, he took a step back, "I went bankrupt, and even came here at the risk of my life, but you told me to rely on my soul to heal myself... Compared to what you said, maybe I I should believe what he said!"
He pointed to Cyber, who opened his eyes and moved towards Ancient One shrugged, Strange continued to shout,
"Maybe I should go back Where I came, I rediscovered the hell meaning of life and became a new pillar of my own life! Then I started a new life of the hell, instead of listening to what the hell Soul Power you are talking about here! I don't believe those! I don't believe it! "
"I won't rely on faith to cure diseases!"
The last tense heartstring of this pitiful person in this brief moment finally broke, he is like a Just like mental disorder, yelling in this quiet place,
"Heavens! Heavens! What crazy things have I done! Maybe I should agree to that absurd request and do it What the hell a cell regeneration experiment, instead of listening to you here...Listen to a bald woman talking about messy things!"
"Enough!"
Cyber covers it After Strange's mouth, he glanced at Ancient One somewhat trembling in fear. Johnny's lesson is still vivid. He doesn't want to involve himself because of Strange's madness. He said loudly in Strange's ear,
" Ancient One Master is one of the most powerful people in this world. People, you must respect her! "
"She is a liar! wu wu, she is a liar! "
Strange struggled violently, Cyber looked at Ancient One helplessly and whispered,
"This guy is crazy, Master, I will throw him out. I swear, I just met him, he and I are not friends! "
"Okay, let him go, Cyber! "
Ancient One waved his hand, and there was no expression on that calm face. Cyber let go of Strange, and Ancient One’s fingers lightly tapped in the air, and the excited youngster’s body was fixed on it. On the spot, Supreme Mage walked towards him and whispered,
"Stephen Strange, you are a person who sees the world from a hole. You think what you see is the entire world, you and other mortals are nothing. The difference, you have been working on expanding this hole in your life, but now, when you, eager to become experienced and knowledgeable, realize that this hole is far from the entire world, when the world is bigger than your most arrogant imagination. …"
"You rejected it...what are you afraid of? "
Looking at Ancient One's piercing eyes, Strange closed his eyes in panic, and he said loudly, "I'm not afraid, I didn't refuse!" I just don’t believe in any stories of spirit strength, I don’t believe in myths... I was born in the 20th century, I studied neurology, and I have memorized the Hippocratic Oath! Heavens! How do you make me believe that this world really has a soul? "
"Let's take a look! "
Ancient One's palm was pressed against Strange's chest, "Look at it with your eyes!" Everyone is not a dispensable material dust in the universe. Your power is so powerful that you can imagine it..."
"peng"
Strange feels a powerful force His power hit his chest, next moment, an indescribable sense of freedom appeared in his heart. He turned around blankly, and saw a Cyber car greeted him weirdly, he came back to his senses , But what I saw was Ancient One and his body...
Wait, if it was his body, what is he now?
This idea just appeared In Strange's mind, an unimaginable suction sucked him from this room into a certain passage.
Cyber reached out to take Strange's body, and he looked at Ancient One curiously,
"Is there anything special about him? Supreme Master...Why do you care about him so much? "
Ancient One did not answer this question, she turned around and looked at Cyber,
"Whether he is important depends on the future, and you belong to the present, Cyber Hawk... I want to experience it. Mr. Strange's journey? "
Cyber shrugged, "Okay. "
The Supreme Master’s palm was once again attached to Cyber's chest, he could feel a force rushing into his body, maybe the soul will leave the body at the next moment, but... he waited for a dozen or so For a few seconds, there was no such feeling. He opened his eyes and saw that Ancient One's gaze was also full of doubts.
