Chapter 85
Lacking in luck!
When this guy was tailing the car, he couldn't outrun it, so he tried to go through a narrow alley on a road that only went in one direction. But he was stopped by two thugs in the alley.
Normally, paying some spare change would be enough to avoid further trouble, but unfortunately, he didn't have any money on him at the time.
As a result, he was beaten up by two thugs who stole his phone.
When he came out of the alley, the Maggia's car was long gone, so he had to walk back and borrow a phone from a passerby to make a call.
We finally managed to get in touch with Jessica Jones. Everything was over, and they were already at the hospital.
So I had him come over and check if he was injured.
"Boss."
A somewhat disheveled but simple-minded Asian man followed a young nurse over.
His name is Liu Qiang, a very ordinary name, but after today, he will become extraordinary, and he will live up to his name and become very strong!
"How is he?" Su Quan nodded and looked at the nurse beside him.
"It's just some superficial injuries, nothing serious," the nurse said with a smile.
"Thanks."
Su Quan politely thanked him and prepared to leave with Liu Qiang.
"Christine."
"Hi."
Just then, a female doctor passing by in the corridor called out the nurse's name, and the two smiled and raised their hands in greeting.
"Your name is Christine?" Su Quan, who was about to leave, was somewhat surprised to hear this name.
With her golden hair and slightly mature yet sweet face, upon closer inspection, she is indeed Doctor Strange's colleague from the movie.
Christine looked at Su Quan curiously and generously gave him her full name.
"Yes, Christine Palmer, do we... do we know each other?"
Su Quan smiled and nodded, "Yes, I know him."
"Really? Sorry, I don't remember. What's your name?"
"Su Quan."
The naive nurse thought about it very seriously for a long time, and then asked again with apologetic tone.
"Su Quan —I'm sorry, I really can't remember. May I ask where we've met before? Or when did we first meet?"
"We first met at the hospital, and we've only known each other for a short time."
Su Quan smiled and extended his hand, "Nice to meet you?"
"..."
Christine was a little confused at first, until Su Quan said that they had just met, and then she realized that he was joking.
This kind of approach isn't annoying, at least not to her.
So she smiled and shook hands with Su Quan: "It's a pleasure to meet you too, and I'll definitely remember you next time we meet."
"Christine, we have a new patient."
A nurse called out to her from a distance.
"I understand, I'll be right there."
Christine responded and gave Su Quan an apologetic smile, "I have to go now, so—"
Su Quan replied understandingly, "See you next time?"
Christine laughed and said, "I thought you'd want my number, but you said see you next time."
After saying that, Christine waved her hand slyly and ran away quickly.
"Boss, it's time to leave work now. I... I can go home by myself," Liu Qiang said softly.
Su Quan thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I just ran into a friend. You can go back first and come find me when you come to work tomorrow. I have something to talk to you about."
"Okay, boss, I'll be going now."
Liu Qiang didn't even ask what they were going to discuss tomorrow, and simply left.
Although he looks a bit simple-minded, he's not really simple-minded. If he's interfering with the boss's pursuit of women, does he even want to keep his job?
Su Quan had no idea that Liu Qiang thought he was staying to continue flirting with Christine; he had actually met a friend.
At the end of the corridor, a faintly visible Prismatic Mirror rippled gently.
Su Quan walked in, but instead of the open space outside the walls, he found himself in a floating circular platform.
Two people stood in the middle of the round platform. One was dressed in a golden mage's robe, and his shiny head made people not only afraid to laugh but also feel very serious.
Bald, very strong!
Especially bald women, they're even stronger!
"The Master The Ancient One."
Su Quan smiled and greeted Marvel's first female bald woman, then his gaze fell on another mage beside her.
This is a female mage, and an Asian female mage at that.
The male-to-female ratio of the Kamar-Taj sorcerers is not unbalanced, and there are quite a few female sorcerers, after all, the Sorcerer Supreme is a woman.
However, the fact that the Kamar-Taj sorceress is Asian already makes her identity quite obvious, especially since she is holding a circular staff in her hand.
"Thena Ren?" Su Quan called out her name.
Thena was surprised that the other person knew her. She paused for a moment, then bowed slightly to greet him.
"Greetings, Lord of the Void."
Thena Ren was also there when Su Quan last visited Kamar-Taj, but not in the center.
But she witnessed firsthand how powerful this man with the same skin color as her was, and later learned his identity: the Lord of the Void from the End of the Timeline!
Even just now, the Master The Ancient One reminded herself not to be impolite when she met the Lord of the Void.
For Thena Ren, the Lord of the Void was a figure whom even the Sorcerer Supreme had to treat with great respect.
It's understandable that Thena Ren couldn't calm down when such an important person could call her by name and recognize her.
Su Quan shifted his gaze from Tina Min back to the Master The Ancient One: "The Master The Ancient One came to see me?"
The Master The Ancient One smiled and shook her head, "Let's take a look at Strange. He will probably be the best among us in the future."
Su Quan smiled without saying a word. It was true that the Master The Ancient One had come to see Strange, but she was probably also worried that he might affect Strange.
Actually, it doesn't matter what the reason is; since we've encountered it, we can't leave empty-handed.
Even though he already has the Infinity Gauntlet, he still wants to Manipulate Time Stone the same way!
"Master The Ancient One, are you still short of money this time?" Su Quan joked with a smile.
The Master The Ancient One smiled and said, "Perhaps."
"Call out--"
No sooner had she finished speaking than Su Quan appeared in front of her.
The Sling Ring of the Vishanti unfolded in the hands of the Master The Ancient One, a golden circular magic circle forming a barrier in front of her.
"Bang!"
Su Quan threw a powerful punch, instantly shattering the Sling Ring of the Vishanti.
"Bite!"
"Combat detected. Reward dropped: Manipulate Time (Master The Ancient One)"
This is it!
Su Quan's eyes lit up, and double the Chaos Force erupted instantly.
The entire Mirror Dimension seemed to turn deep red in an instant!
"Bang!"
The Master The Ancient One stumbled back a few steps and had just regained her footing when she was suddenly blasted away by the Chaos Force.
Even the Master The Ancient One found it difficult to withstand double the Chaos Force.
She flew backward several meters before performing a backflip and landing on one knee to regain her balance.
"Barrier."
A soft, anxious cry came from Tina Min, who was gripping the Staff of One with both hands.
The Shockwave from the eruption of Chaos Force reached her, and with nowhere to hide, she could only try her best to resist.
An invisible Energy Barrier suddenly appeared in front of Staff of One, but unfortunately, the barrier only lasted a few seconds under the impact of double the Chaos Force before collapsing.
"Pfft—" Tina Min spat out blood and slid a long way on the ground.
