Chapter 687: Return
"This is your mage friend? It really looks like a ...... Mage. Tony looked at Strange and said for a long time.
"I was really pleasantly surprised to see you again." Strange said, "I thought you died in the battle with Dormammu, and Kama Taj held a funeral for you and the Ancient One. ”
"Hey, I'm not that weak." Linton said.
"Dormammu? So what? Tony asked.
"Sit down with me?" Strange didn't answer Tony's meaning, and directly waved his hand to open a portal, which was obviously the portal of the New York Temple, and said to Linton.
"I'll go catch up with him, and you can go and watch that little spider." Linton said to Tony as well.
"OK, mage symposium or something, right?" Tony spread his hands and said, "I'd better go to Morocco for a vacation." ”
After saying that, Tony flew away directly, although he was also a little curious about what Linton was going to talk about, but it was just curious, the mage's affairs were chattering at a glance, and Tony was really not interested in it. Of course, it's a vacation to Morocco, but it's just talking, and he won't just ignore the little spider now, after all, this matter has something to do with their Stark company.
Linton didn't say anything, and followed Strange through the portal to the New York Sanctuary. After all, he is a New Yorker, and although he has become a Supreme Mage, Strange still spends most of his time in the New York Sanctuary, not Kama Taj.
"Coffee or tea?" The two of them went straight to the living room and sat down, Strange said.
"Coke." Linton gestured, and soon a glass of Coke appeared in his hand, and it was clear that Strange's control over spells was becoming more and more refined.
"You solved Dormammu in the end?" Linton asked, taking a sip.
"He was indeed injured by you, and it seems that he has received a lot of damage, but in the end he was forced to retreat by me." "I don't think we're going to be aiming at Earth anymore in the near future." ”
"Yes, boy." Linton said, "It's getting more and more accessible." ”
"I've been researching your situation lately." Strange said, "You...... It's not from this world, right? ”
"yes." Linton also nodded directly, Strange can guess this is still very easy, nothing strange.
"What world are you from?" Strange asked.
"You don't know what I said, do you?" Linton said.
"And what are you here for?" Strange asked.
"The Infinity Stones in this world are very interesting, and I'm here to study them." Linton said, "But don't worry, I've promised the Ancient One not to take away the Infinity Stones of this world, so it's just a matter of researching, and according to the technology on our side, we may be able to make the same one, so don't worry that it won't disrupt the balance of this world." ”
"Hmm......" Strange nodded slightly, yes, he naturally didn't have a hostile attitude towards Linton, if the other party was an enemy, the ancient one wouldn't cooperate with the other party, wouldn't he? The fight has already begun. Since the ancient one chose to trust Linton, Strange also felt that Linton should be trustworthy, so he just asked about it ordinarily, and did not mean to question.
"I've studied five of them so far, and I'm still missing one soul gem." Linton said.
"Even I don't know the location of the soul gem." "It's supposed to be a very mysterious location in the universe. ”
"I don't need your help to find it, I know where it is, it's just inconvenient to pick it up, so I'll just wait for someone to send it." Linton said.
"Someone sent it?" Strange frowned, "If I'm not mistaken, could it be ......?"
"You know you can't avoid it." Linton said, "Don't worry, I also promised the Ancient One, and I will still help when I can." ”
"So...... Is the Ancient One still alive? Strange thought for a moment and asked suddenly.
"Oh?" Linton was slightly stunned, theoretically speaking, even if Strange could see the future, it should be unlikely that he would know the news that the Ancient One was still alive, could it be that he would bring the Ancient One back in the future?
"That's my guess." Strange here explained, "I felt a little strange the last time you appeared in the hospital, but now that I think about it, what kind of agreement did you say you made with the Ancient One......"
"She's alive, but she shouldn't be seen again." Linton said, "It has nothing to do with me, it's her own decision, as long as there is one Supreme Mage in this world, it's enough, you just treat her as dead." ”
"I see." Strange nodded.
"Any questions?" Linton asked, "If it's okay, I'll have to leave for an alien planet right now and return the Infinity Stones in my possession first." ”
"And the Infinity Stones in your hand?" Strange asked.
"yes, I accidentally brought it back last time, so didn't I send it back quickly." Linton said.
"Then you send the things back first, I have something else, I'll look for you later." Strange said.
Linton didn't know what Strange was referring to when he said anything else, but it shouldn't be an important matter, after all, he had asked all the important questions, and he would talk about it later.
Since he had already been to Sandar last time, Linton was of course able to open the portal to Sandar now. After drawing a circle, Linton walked through the portal, and then appeared inside the current Nova Legion headquarters.
Seeing Linton suddenly appearing, the guards of the surrounding Nova Legion were directly stunned, and then subconsciously took out their light guns and aimed them at Linton, the person who suddenly appeared in the headquarters was obviously an illegal intruder, and it appeared so strangely, of course they were a little panicked.
"Wait......" Someone suddenly seemed to recognize Linton, "It's you?" ”
"Acquaintance? Where's your boss? Linton asked.
Of course, the other party recognized Linton, before Linton directly invaded the legion headquarters alone, directly destroyed most of the city, and forcibly took away the destruction spirit ball, for the terrifying strength of the other party, this centurion naturally remembers it vividly.
"That...... What are you here to do? The other party asked a little nervously.
"I didn't say it last time, I just studied the Infinity Stones, and I delayed a little time, and I'll give it back to you now." Linton said as he took out the purple power gem and threw it towards the centurion.
The centurions here were terrified, this was something that could destroy the entire planet at once, and you just threw it over. But after all, he is also a centurion, and he still has the ability to react, and when he saw the power gem flying over, he quickly took a cup-like container on the table next to him and took it into the air.
With a "ding", the power gem just fell into the water cup, and it seemed that there was no special reaction, and everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
At this time, several people reacted, and Linton actually returned the power gem to them? Yes, it's been nearly a year since Linton last came here, and to be honest, there were many people who believed that Linton might really come to return the gems, but as time went on, they felt that they might have been deceived, how could the other party return them. However, what I didn't expect was that today, a year later, the other party is really here, so it's really just a study?
"Put away your gun." Just when I didn't know what to do, a group of people walked in at the door, and Linton, the leader of the leader, also knew that Pride, the current supreme commander of the Nova Legion, was also an old friend, and he should have rushed over after receiving the news from here.
At this time, the guards of the Nova Legion also noticed that they were still holding their guns at Linton, and they quickly put away their guns. At this time, many people recognized Linton, and of course remembered what Linton had done before, but fortunately, none of them were excited to shoot, otherwise the headquarters and city that had been rebuilt with great difficulty would usher in another catastrophe.
"Commander." The centurion here also walked to Pryde's side and showed off the power gem he had just arrived.
"Anyway, as agreed, I'm here to return the gems." Linton said, "It's a little delayed, but I didn't break my promise anyway, right?" ”
"Your Excellency is indeed a man who keeps his word." Pride said, these days Pride is also a little panicked, she has been a little worried after the power gem was handed over to Linton, especially when the other party did not come back to return it, Pride is worried that Linton is really using this to do something bad, then if it really happens, they gave it out, of course she has to be responsible.
However, they hadn't heard of anyone using the Power Gem to destroy the planet these days, and Linton seemed to have disappeared like that, which made Pride a little incomprehensible. Until now Linton appeared to return the gem, Pride was relieved.
ordered his men to quickly collect the gems, and Pride chatted with Linton for a while. Although the gem was returned, Pride still wanted to inquire a little about Linton's situation, and of course he didn't dare to ask directly, so he chatted casually.
Linton also chatted with Pride, the main reason was to ask if the news of the power gem lent to him had spread, after all, if this news spread, what if Thanos knew that the gem was not here and went to look for it elsewhere? How long will this drag on? However, judging from Pride's answer, the news should still not have gotten out.
