"Brotherhood?"

Bai Jing was still pondering Natasha's hint.

He had watched a lot of Marvel, and many videos dissecting the plot, so he was sure such an organization didn't exist in the Marvel Universe.

It did exist elsewhere, though, like in Wanted or Assassin's Creed.

But he was in a real world now, and blindly trusting the plot wasn't wise. After all, the plot had never shown Natasha speaking such fluent Chinese, because actors couldn't learn it.

"But I refused S.H.I.E.L.D. today, so we'll be enemies from now on!" So how would S.H.I.E.L.D. deal with him?

He was curious!

Bai Jing thought about it, but he didn't really care. Besides Captain Marvel Carol, S.H.I.E.L.D. didn't seem to have anyone who could fight.

Besides, if I can't beat them, I'll run. S.H.I.E.L.D. couldn't cover the sky with one hand.

Burying his head, he continued reading!

He also combined the knowledge he had just learned with practical application.

"A black hole can distort time and space, so can I twist space into a ball, and then wouldn't that be a Pocket Dimension?"

Banner had a Pocket Dimension full of transformation energy, which Bai Jing envied.

He didn't have a Pocket Dimension full of transformation energy, but wouldn't it be nice to store other things, like daily necessities, guns, and bombs?

When fighting, he could pull out tens of thousands of RPGs from space and fire them in a time-distorted state, and then...

Well, call me the Monkey King Bai Letian!

But to create a spatial distortion, one must first be able to sense space.

Bai Jing had no clue about this, but it wasn't entirely hopeless. Didn't the Ancient One teach space magic? Perhaps they had a way to perceive space!

As for time!

Bai Jing suddenly slammed the table: "Oh, I know!"

"Hey, keep it down!" a student reading nearby said unhappily.

"Oh, oh, sorry, sorry, I got a little excited..." Bai Jing cupped his hands and apologized quickly.

Mainly, thinking of the Ancient One made him think of a problem.

He had such a powerful golden finger, one that could even swallow the Earth. Logically, the Earth's defender, the guardian of the multiverse, the Sorcerer Supreme the Ancient One, should have come to talk to him long ago.

But the Ancient One hadn't.

Why?

Bai Jing hadn't thought much about it before. Perhaps the Ancient One already knew of his existence, but also knew he was kind-hearted and wouldn't harm the Earth.

But now, perhaps there was another possibility.

His time was distorted by the black hole, so the Ancient One couldn't observe him.

However, after thinking for a short while, he stopped dwelling on it.

The Ancient One wasn't S.H.I.E.L.D.; she was a good person.

Bai Jing had never intended to harm the Earth, so why would the Ancient One, with her magnanimity, deal with him?

They were not natural enemies.

"Should I, perhaps, proactively seek out the Sanctum?" Bai Jing stroked his chin. The North American Sanctum Sanctorum was located at 177A Bleecker Street, in the heart of Greenwich Village, New York.

Since he was idle anyway, Bai Jing got up, completed the book borrowing procedures at the library, and then, carrying his books, headed straight for the Sanctum Sanctorum.

Stepping out of the library, he felt the biting cold wind of North America and pulled his clothes tighter.

The entrance to Columbia University's library had several huge pillars, similar to those of the Parthenon.

As Bai Jing walked past the massive pillars, he saw a middle-aged man in a white suit and white trousers, with his hair neatly styled, walking nimbly up the steps.

This man stood tall and straight, his gaze steady, his arms wide. He walked with an imposing grace!

It wasn't that Bai Jing was specifically paying attention to this person, but compared to the students around him, this man's aura was just too confident.

Bai Jing only glanced at him before looking away, but his peripheral vision suddenly caught the man reaching into his suit with his right hand.

That movement!

"Hmm?" Bai Jing instinctively began to dodge, and then saw the middle-aged man pull out a gun from his chest. It was entirely silver, and its barrel was twice as long as a normal gun, reaching 25cm.

The middle-aged man then turned his head to look at Bai Jing, raised his hand, and fired!

BANG!

A large crater suddenly appeared in the marble pillar next to Bai Jing's head. Bai Jing glanced sideways and saw a bullet, gleaming with a silver metallic luster and covered in strange patterns, embedded in the blasted marble pit!

"Such a powerful bullet, and the material is unusual!" Bai Jing was startled. Even more terrifying was this man's speed!

He was in the time distortion field of a black hole, so his base speed and reaction speed were twice that of others!

But the man in front of him drew and fired his gun so quickly that Bai Jing almost didn't react!

In just a few hundredths of a second, the man's left hand also reached into his suit, while his right hand continued to fire!

"Damn it!" Bai Jing quickly retreated, simultaneously increasing the gravity in front of him!

Hum!

The bullet passed through Bai Jing's gravity field as if unimpeded!

"Ah!" A scream came from behind, from other students entering and leaving the library.

Bai Jing had no time to look back. In front of the library, there was a large open plaza beyond the steps. There was also a certain distance from the pillars to the library entrance. Bai Jing was in a difficult position, front and back, so he could only rely on the pillar beside him and the assassin, King Qin, to circle around it.

As for injuring others, sorry, I didn't want to.

Why are you Americans? Born randomly, die freely!

While circling the pillar, he was also rapidly analyzing his opponent.

"Gravity can't restrain it? No, it's not that. It's mainly that the bullet is too fast and the material is special. My restraining force on it is much weaker!" Bai Jing was somewhat glad he hadn't shown off and chosen to dodge rather than face the bullet directly.

The entire gang had seen him hold the bullet in his hand. It was impossible for the news not to spread. Since the enemy still used a gun to assassinate him, they must have made special preparations!

Either the gun was problematic, or the bullet was problematic.

Now it seemed both were problematic.

Trying to counter-kill was also very difficult. He didn't dare to appear in front of the assassin, as he would be instantly killed by a shot. The marble pillar beside him was 1.5 meters in diameter, and he couldn't devour the assassin next door through the pillar.

Wait!

Since they chose to assassinate him here, these assassins wouldn't know how many pillars there were here for me, King Qin, to circle around?

Bai Jing's heart pounded. With a thought, he quickly turned his head and saw a 30-story building about 2 kilometers away, opposite the library!

Looking down, on the twenty-third floor, a Latina woman dressed in a white suit and pants, holding an unknown sniper rifle, was aiming at him from the window!

Bang!

A silver bullet, still with strange patterns, flew out. Under Bai Jing's super vision, he could clearly see the image of the Columbia Library building reflected on the smooth bullet head, as well as his own desperate self under the marble pillar!

Will I die here?

No, how could that be!

I am the end of the universe, the terminator of the world, the ultimate existence among celestial bodies, a black hole!

Cough cough!

This is too embarrassing, too embarrassing!

He was a little chuunibyou for a moment. Bai Jing gently tilted his head, and the bullet grazed his temple as it flew past.

Is this sniper brain-dead? At a distance of two kilometers, even if your sniper rifle bullet's muzzle velocity is 3000m/s, I still have over a second of reaction time in the time acceleration field, enough for me to run three or four meters!

Of course, this kind of encirclement would be a sure kill for ordinary people, as they couldn't even see the bullet, let alone dodge it!

"Your skill is quite high, but it's still not enough!" Bai Jing took out two playing cards from his pocket. One of them turned into a rainbow light and instantly reached the sniper's throat.

Yes, ordinary people wouldn't have time to react!

He held the other card in his hand and suddenly turned around, slashing directly at the suit man's hands!

The black hole titanium metal, as thin as a cicada's wing, was already the sharpest blade in the world. The suit man's wrists instantly bled profusely. He could no longer hold his gun tightly, and it was about to fall to the ground, but Bai Jing casually scooped it up.

The middle-aged white man moved his jaw at this, but saw Bai Jing smile!

Immediately, his previously calm expression, which hadn't changed even after the assassination failed, turned to one of horror.

What he had hidden under his teeth actually missed!
