#286 - This villain is a bit watery

“Knock, knock, knock~”

“Knock, knock, knock~”

“Knock, knock, knock~”

… …

After knocking on the door for a long time without a response, Liang Yue, who was carrying a gift to make up for Elizabeth, couldn't help but reveal a hint of suspicion on his face.

He took a step back and looked at the house number next to him again.

Brick Street, 177A, that's right~

“Could it be that these mages don't see outsiders? It's just asking them to help forward a package, I'll leave immediately after sending it, it shouldn't be, right?”

Looking at the closed door in front of him, Liang Yue hesitated for a moment, and finally stretched out a magic palm towards the keyhole.

In an instant, the Xiantian Zixia Qi permeated through the crack of the door, wrapped the handle inside, and then gently twisted it.

“Click!” With a sound, the door opened~

He walked in leisurely, but the scene that greeted him made him stunned.

Inside the New York Sanctum, there were many corpses lying scattered all over the hall.

There were men, women, old and young, some even wearing smoky makeup…

“What's going on? Did Dormammu invade? It can't be such a coincidence, right?”

Looking at the scene in front of him, Liang Yue raised his eyebrows, his eyes flickered a few times, his gaze swept across the room, and with a flick of his sleeve, the beautifully packaged gift box was immediately put into the storage space.

At the same time, he tapped his feet lightly, and his whole person instantly turned into a gray shadow, leaping up the stairs.

However, before he had taken a few steps, this guy immediately flew back.

Then, Liang Yue came to the corpses, slowly squatted down, and took off those strangely shaped two-finger rings from their fingers.

If Liang Yue guessed correctly, this thing should be called a Sling Ring.

It can be used to open space portals, and with this thing, you can travel freely to all parts of the earth, and even within the Mirror Dimension.

Although he doesn't know how to use it yet, it's better to be prepared~

Only after taking off all the Sling Rings from the corpses in the hall did Liang Yue stand up with satisfaction, listened for a while, and then continued to walk up the stairs.

When passing by a showroom, magical items were placed on display stands or in display cabinets.

With a sweep of his eyes, Liang Yue even found Doctor Strange's dark red Cloak of Levitation.

Forcing himself to suppress the urge to sweep everything here, this guy ultimately only took off the Sling Rings from the corpses lying on the ground.

Then, following the sporadic traces of battle, he continued forward.

Soon, Liang Yue came to a somewhat dim corridor, and at the end of this corridor, there were several windows that looked quite extraordinary at a glance.

At this time, there were many corpses lying on the steps under the windows.

Liang Yue had just stepped forward a few steps, and before he had time to bend down to pick up the spoils, the scenery outside one of the windows suddenly changed rapidly.

From high snow peaks to tranquil forest seas, then to raging deep blue seas, and finally stopped in a continuous desert.

Immediately afterwards, a person fell out from inside.

“Ah~!!”

With a terrified scream, this person finally rolled down the steps.

Seeing this, Liang Yue picked him up from the ground.

After thanking him, this somewhat embarrassed man immediately reacted, and then turned his head sharply, looking at him with a bit of vigilance on his horse-like face.

“I'm a courier, I accidentally saw a murder case here, hey~ buddy, do you want me to help call the police?”

Liang Yue looked at the other party's face, which was at least ninety percent similar to Benedict Cumberbatch, and subconsciously looked at his scarred hands, and immediately understood in his heart.

At the same time, he felt a bit of worry for Elizabeth, who was also a mage and now in London.

“A courier? You leave quickly! This place, hiss~ this is not a place you should come to!”

Hearing this, Benedict Cumberbatch's face suddenly showed a bit of astonishment, but at this time he had no time to distinguish anything, grabbed Liang Yue and walked quickly in the direction he came from.

“Is there anyone else here? Ai Wu Rui Ba Di Hei Er~!”

“They should all be dead, there are quite a few corpses lying in the hall below, if there were anyone, they should have come out when I came in.”

Looking at this horse-faced Benedict Cumberbatch's nervous appearance of looking around and shouting from time to time, Liang Yue couldn't help but remind him.

“Are you really a courier?”

Hearing this, Benedict Cumberbatch immediately turned his head to look at him and asked, with a strong look of doubt on his face.

It seems that this little brother has finally come to his senses…

“To be precise, I came to deliver a Christmas gift. Just yesterday, I received a gift from my girlfriend, and the address is here.

However, if I remember correctly, her home should be in London.”

“The address of the sender is here? Are you sure? What's your girlfriend's name?”

“Elizabeth Stuart.”

“… …? Sorry, I haven't heard of it.”

“Looks like you should be a newbie.”

… …

“Elizabeth Stuart, a witch from the current British Royal Family, is not a magic practitioner in the same system as the Supreme Sanctum. Chinese martial artist, it's not too late for you to leave now.”

As he spoke, just as Liang Yue and Benedict Cumberbatch walked to the staircase in the hall on the first floor, a circle emitting sparks suddenly appeared out of thin air from the doorway.

Five figures walked out from inside. While walking, a smoky-eyed man at the head was carrying his hands behind his back and raised his head to say to him.

“It's Kaecilius! They actually chased after us! You go quickly, quickly, de, uh~?”

“Pa” “Pa” “Pa” “Pa” “Pa”

Accompanied by a burst of short and intense gunfire, before the words of Benedict Cumberbatch next to him could finish, the four people opposite were directly headshot by Liang Yue.

Blood mist sprayed, and red and white things splashed everywhere.

The smoky-eyed man at the head was pierced through the chest and heart by a bullet.

Liang Yue did this on purpose. If he guessed correctly, the Kaecilius on the opposite side should be the leader of the villains in the Doctor Strange plot.

In the end, he also killed the Ancient One, allowing her to break free from the shackles of the flesh and summon the ruler of the Dark Dimension, Dormammu.

Facing such a villain, he naturally had nothing to say, just shoot him down directly~

The reason why he didn't directly hit the head was because Liang Yue considered the villain's status in this plot and deliberately left him a little time to act tough in his last words…

“Uh~ Ah… Our Lord will not let you go…”

After speaking, Kaecilius covered his chest and fell to the ground with a look of resentment and unwillingness.

“These last words are a bit too cliché…”

Hearing the other party's words, Liang Yue shook his head with some disappointment.

Looking back at Benedict Cumberbatch on the side, this young man was already too shocked to speak, his mouth wide open.

However, in fact, this matter cannot be entirely blamed on him, because according to the development of the plot, Kaecilius and his gang had just attacked the Magic Sanctum located in the Himalayas before.

And before attacking there, they had already destroyed the London Sanctum, causing huge losses to the mage community.

Benedict Cumberbatch, who had not yet advanced to become the Sorcerer Supreme, had previously been chased around in embarrassment by the other party and could only run for his life.

As a result, now, they had only just met, and in just half a second, before Benedict Cumberbatch could finish his own words, they were shot down on the spot by Liang Yue in a burst of gunfire.

The turning point in this was a bit too sudden.

“You still need more experience, young man~”

Looking at Benedict Cumberbatch's appearance, Liang Yue smiled and patted him on the shoulder, and then turned his head to look at the corpses lying all over the floor below, and then continued with some regret.

“In addition, you mages are still a bit too closed off. Take weapons like guns, why not try to integrate them into your system?

If you had this in your hands at the time, at least there wouldn't be so many casualties.”

Hearing Liang Yue's words, Benedict Cumberbatch was stunned.

However, at this moment, another circle emitting sparks appeared out of thin air, and the location was not far from the two of them.

Immediately afterwards, a bald man and a black man walked out from inside. The clothes on the two of them were similar to those around them, the only difference was the color.

In comparison, Liang Yue seemed to be the odd one out here.

“It seems that my retirement time has been postponed because of you, Mr. Liang Yue.”

The Ancient One glanced at Kaecilius's corpse at the bottom of the stairs, and then said to him with a bit of calm smile.

“Greetings, Sorcerer Supreme, I'm actually here to deliver a Christmas gift to my girlfriend.”

Looking at the bald boss in front of him, Liang Yue smiled, and then with a flick of his sleeve, he took out the exquisitely packaged gift box from before.

As for why the other party could recognize him, he was not surprised at all, after all, the Time Stone was in her hands.

Once involved in the plot, Liang Yue will inevitably deal with them in the future.

“Is it for Elizabeth Stuart? Don't worry, I will personally hand it over to her.”

Hearing this, the Ancient One reached out and took the gift box.

“Thank you, Sorcerer Supreme, um~ to be honest, when I was young, I always wanted to run to the Himalayas to join you and learn magic from you.

But later, because of some personal reasons, it was delayed~”

“It's not too late for you to learn now.”

“Really?”

“Of course~”

“Wow~ Actually, the kind of magic I want to learn doesn't need to be too profound, as long as it's like you guys before, you can draw circles in space and open space portals to that extent!”

“This shouldn't be difficult for you. Actually, Mr. Strange behind you can teach you.”

“Huh? You can really teach me, Benedict Cumberbatch, um~ Mr. Strange?”

“Of course, but before that, can you help me heal my hands?”

“This doesn't seem difficult~”

“? ? ?”
