Chapter 274: Donnie: Stephen, I'm going to punch down...... (2-in-1)
"Pembourne, your spinal cord in the neck 7 and 8 is completely damaged, and this paralysis is impossible to recover, tell me how you healed!" Stephen asked hurriedly, holding up his trembling hands.
Through the basketball court's net, the patient named Pembourne looked at the somewhat depressed man with a cautious gaze, and his messy, greasy hair showed that he was not doing well.
"Who are you?" Panborn made an apologetic gesture to his teammates and asked Stephen.
"My name is Stephen Strange, a neurosurgeon — a former neurosurgeon." Stephen calmed his breath and replied.
"Ha, I really know you, when I was paralyzed, I came to ask you for treatment, but you didn't even look at me."
Stephen was silent for a moment before replying, "I can't save you." ”
"Can't be saved? So you retreated because I was afraid that I would ruin your reputation, right? Panborn said coldly, turning around and leaving, "You go, get out of here." ”
"No, you find hope in despair and work miracles! I, I'm trying to work my miracle too......" said Stephen as he struggled to lift his hands, and every time he looked down, it was a great torture for his heart and pride.
"Hey, Pembourne, are you still playing?" Someone shouted at Pembourne.
Pan Burn hesitated, nodded to his teammates, approached the net, and said to Stephen: "I had given up at the time, just half a year ago, only my brain was still alive in my body. I studied with some mages, and then they sent me to a sacred place where I found my life coach. ”
"My soul has been sublimated! You don't understand that feeling, and then, somehow, my body ......," Panborn said more and more excitedly.
Stephen hurriedly stepped forward, his face almost touching the iron net: "Your body is healed?" ”
"Yes, there are many, many secrets there, but the Most Holy Venerable told me that my wisdom could no longer bear any more, so I obediently went home. A miracle has struck, what more could I ask for? I'm healthy again! Pembern said earnestly, with a pilgrimage on his face.
"The Most Holy Venerable? Is it a reclusive great scientist? Stephen swallowed and asked urgently, his eyes bloodshot that he might be close to hope.
"No, not a scientist, it's a mage, the guardian of the earth, the Supreme Mage. Remember a year ago, the projection of war that covered half the world? That battle was started by the current Supreme Mage, who defeated the demon who wanted to devour the earth. Panborn replied.
"Law...... Mage......? Stephen was stunned.
He had thought that some surgical transfer had cured Pangborn, or even that some scientific madman had conducted human experiments on Panbourne, but he had never thought about the mage.
Stephen shook his head a little dazedly: "You are talking nonsense, how can there be a mage in this world, I have a doctoral diploma, science is enough to explain the rules of the world, mages or something, it is simply a lie." ”
"No, it's true! The Supreme Mage saved me! Panborn was suddenly enraged, smashed his fist into the iron net, and roared in a low voice, "Don't think that I won't dare beat you if you're a patient!" Like those idiots, you still think that the images are high-tech experiments by official institutions? Virtual reality technology being studied? Wake up! How else would I have gotten back to health! You don't understand anything at all, just like those idiots! ”
Stephen was speechless.
He had a great deal of knowledge and had always scoffed at things related to the mystery, but at this moment, he wavered, or rather, he had to believe it, because he had no way out.
He tried regenerative stem cells in Japan and organism remodeling surgery in North America, but none of them worked, and he quickly spent all his savings.
He, Stephen, had nowhere to go, and he didn't even know what to do if he hadn't found Pangborn's case report in his own case.
"Listen, doctor, it's my limit to be able to tell you this, I could have said nothing. The place is called Kama Taj, and its owner is known as the Supreme Mage, the guardian of the earth, guarding us from foreign creatures. Panburn said.
Stephen nodded silently: "I understand, thank you." How do I find that place? ”
Panborn paused and said, "If you want to go there, you have to pay a big price. ”
"How much?"
"It's not about money...... Good luck. Panburn whispered an approximate address to Stephen and turned to play basketball.
Stephen's brisk demeanor made Stephen extremely envious. Stephen stared at Pangborn's figure for a long time, and inexplicably, seeing that the person he had sentenced to death had become so healthy, some confidence actually rose in his heart.
Stephen looked at it for a while, turned around and was about to leave, but he didn't expect that the death knell had already quietly stared at him.
"Stephen Strange, I remember this person on the mission list of the Sky Eye Society...... Got it. Knell took a special mobile phone, looked at the information on the top-secret website inside the Sky Eye Society, and pulled out Stephen's information.
"Secretly protect this man until it is certain that he left North America for the Himalayas? And absolutely not to expose yourself?! The mission of the Celestial Eye Society is getting stranger and stranger, but the price of two million dollars is still very good. ”
Knell's indifferent face stared at the screen, weighing the pros and cons, and after a second, he made the decision to take on the task.
This Stephen is obviously leaving North America, and he just needs to wait patiently for a day or two, and the money will be in hand.
There are many tasks of the Tianyan Society, but the people who are qualified to take the tasks of the Tianyan Society are less than ten in the world, which is very strange, and I don't know what the screening criteria of the Tianyan Society are.
At the moment when the death knell pressed the button, he was cut off.
Looking at the disgusting red avatar, Deathbell's cold heart couldn't suppress the anger that rose.
"It's Deadpool again, this bastard, hack this annoying guy to death sooner or later!"
……
Stephen spent what little savings he had left and embarked on this path full of unknowns and uncertainties. He wanted to call his assistant Nick Tims and found that the number had been cancelled. Stephen silently put down his phone and longed for the unknown East.
According to Pembourne, even he didn't know the exact location of Kama Taj, who had been brought in. One thing is certain, though, the entrances are in Nepal and Tibet.
Considering the terrible altitude of Tibet, Stephen, whose hands were almost useless, did not hesitate to buy a ticket to Nepal and flew all the way across the sea.
Stephen tossed and turned, and it took half a month to finally set foot on Nepalese soil.
The ultra-low temperature, and the cold wind that cut through the skin like a knife, made the already depressed Stephen even more unbearable, and he tightened his sour coat and watched the crowd come and go with some confusion and helplessness.
Sculptures symbolizing the gods can be seen everywhere along the roadside, and many locals are kneeling down. Stephen went to the bazaar, holding a note in his hand in the local language, and asked, "Kama Taj?" ”
Passers-by shook their heads, and Stephen immediately grabbed the next person.
He thought that this place would be difficult to find, and he was mentally prepared, but he didn't expect that some people seemed to be afraid of this place like a snake and scorpion.
Sometimes he grabbed a person and asked "Kama Taj", and the person's face would change drastically, and he would wave his hand in panic and run away.
Stephen was even more confused.
He couldn't understand why the possible insiders were so afraid of this place, and even he felt uneasy.
Even when he was surrounded and beaten by a group of ruffians, he shouted Kama Taj, and the ill-intentioned thugs fled with a look of terror and screams.
Stephen lay on the ground, feeling the coldness of the ground, and his fiery heart grew cold.
Again, no matter how much he asked, no matter how many people he searched, no one would tell him the exact location of Kama Taj.
Why, these people know about Kama Taj, why don't they tell him? Do you want money? I saved a few dozen dollars for my own frugality, just to pay others as a reward.
"Are you still up?" A man in a numb robe appeared beside Stephen and reached out in a friendly hand to pull him up.
Stephen rekindled his hope and asked tentatively, "Kama Taj?" ”
"You're looking for Kama Taj? I can take you. Mordo pulled down his hood, revealing his swarthy face, and examined the man Downey had commanded.
Ever since the news came from the Celestial Eye Society that Stephen Strange had left for Kama Taj, Donnie had been preparing, calculating the time, and specially letting Mordo wait in the outside world to pick up Stephen in time for Kama Taj.
The news of the Sky Eye Club is of course timely, as Kama Taj also has IFI.
"Do you know where Kama Taj is? Are you sure? I heard that His Holiness there was able to heal my hands! Stephen looked surprised, hurriedly got up from the ground, and suddenly distracted himself, letting his hands hold the ground, and the severe pain made Stephen can't help but let out a scream.
Mo Du frowned without a trace, this person, what qualifications does he have to make Donnie pay so much attention? Super magical talent?
Although he was confused, since it was Donny's order, as the Supreme Mage's right-hand man, he just did it.
Mordo tilted his head, and with Stephen, who was rushing to follow, blended into the crowd of people coming and going.
After turning around, the two came to a relatively simple ...... The snack street finally stopped in front of a narrow wooden door.
This wooden door, no more than a meter horizontally, was covered with dust.
"This is Kama Taj? Are you sure? Stephen put his hand in his sleeve, wanting to laugh, but even more so crying.
He felt that he had been deceived and that he was a fool.
This broken door is Kama Taj? The most rainy on this backward snack street is Kama Taj? This wall made of red bricks, behind it is Kama Taj?!
Even if Kama Taj is not a scientific research or medical institution, even if there is a magician, is it located in this hellish place?
"Trust me, Stephen, years ago, I was as skeptical as you were, and I'll give you a piece of advice to forget what you thought you knew." Mordo said.
Stephen also saw that kind of pilgrimage on Mordo's face.
Of course, Mordo admired the most was the Ancient One, the previous Venerable who pulled him out of the abyss when he was at his most helpless and desperate.
Stephen followed Mordo into the tattered wooden door, and was stunned the moment he stepped inside.
It's like another world, with a large venue and a quaint building that retains its mysterious beauty. He subconsciously turned around, the door when he came in had long since disappeared, and the crooked walls made of red bricks had disappeared without a trace.
It was as if in an instant, he entered a world in a different dimension.
"This is the Supreme Mage's Temple, and Donnie is waiting for you." Mordo said.
"Donnie? The name sounds familiar...... "Stephen muttered.
Mordo reminded, "I said, forget what you thought you knew. ”
"Okay, okay......" Stephen walked into the temple with some restraint, looking at the few but scholarly people inside.
There is no TV or computer here, just like in an oriental costume drama, full of retro style...... No, it shouldn't be called retro, the facilities here are all from ancient times.
It's just that...... What's going on with this dog gnawing mark everywhere?
"You guys here...... Do you have a dog too? Caucasus? Or bits? After holding it for a long time, Stephen hesitantly pointed to a mark that had obviously been gnawed by some kind of creature and said, "I've had a dog too, but judging from the marks here and there...... Do you have more than one? This tooth mark is very large, it must be a fierce dog. ”
Mordo's cheeks twitched, and he subconsciously looked left and right, looking for traces of the dinosaur, but fortunately he was not here.
"Ahem, yes, sometimes it's really distressing......" Mordo coughed dryly, rarely snorting haha.
The further he walked in, the more strange Stephen's face became.
What's going on with all these vehicle parts all over the floor?!
"Boom!"
A pile of modern vehicle parts, piled up in the middle of this ancient building, was so big that the people who came and went were accustomed to it, and knew very well the hobbies of their new Supreme Mage.
A young man in a black robe in his twenties let out a soft sigh and slowly stood up from the pile of parts. This young man's face is square and resolute, and his sharp eyes full of oppression are like a pair of whirlpools, absorbing people's attention.
"Still studying the mysteries of the soul?" Mordo walked over and asked casually.
"Well, I'm infinitely close to success." Downey casually put down the newly created "transformation gear" made of a combination of soul, magic and technology, and looked at the vicissitudes of Stephen Strange.
This bland gaze put a huge pressure on Stephen, and he was almost out of breath, and his heart was compressed by some kind of huge force, as if it would explode in the next moment.
"Stephen Strange, why are you here?" Downey withdrew his gaze and looked indifferently at the later famous Doctor Strange.
Stephen swallowed and foamed, his eyes were black, and he almost fainted, but fortunately he was stopped by Mordo in time. He opened his mouth and looked at the young man, wanting to say something, but his tongue seemed to be knotted, and he couldn't come out completely.
"I ...... I want to ......"
Stephen was nervous, sweating on his forehead, Donnie was putting too much pressure on him.
But he didn't know that Donnie was even more nervous.
According to the normal process, it seems that in order to impress this arrogant guy, the ancient one directly blasted Stephen's soul out of his body with a single punch, and then took his soul to the multiverse and countless unknown domains for a tour?
Facts speak louder than words, and the Ancient One's approach worked, directly silencing Doctor Strange, who was forced to talk about technology and regenerative cells.
Downey also seriously considered this method in his heart, crude and effective, omitting nonsense that didn't make sense.
But the key is that Donnie, a demigod, has a delicate grasp of the soul......
"If I punch down, I'll kill someone directly, right?"
Donnie stared at Stephen's head, very, very hesitant.
