In the Sand Village, the clones are everywhere, and the Arkham game begins

Chapter 285 Ancient One
That night, night fell.

After arguing with Nick Fury for the whole day, Shimizu sat in the car, holding the Mind Gem Scepter, looking a little tired.

Beside him, Dr. Banner was wrapped in his coat, drowsy.

[Current Luck Value: 37%]

The moment the Avengers were formed, Qingshui's luck value began to rise.

The most important purpose of joining this team has been achieved.

The ownership of the scepter has also been decided.

There is no doubt that Black Salted Egg really wants to take this scepter into the possession of SHIELD.

What made Qingshui feel a little puzzled was that Brother Ludan seemed to be a little afraid of him?
What did I do to deserve this reaction from you?
But Nick Fury is more afraid of the forces within S.H.I.E.L.D. that are not under his control.

If it were before, Nick Fury was confident that he could control the scepter, but now he finds that the power under his hands is not completely under his control.

Then if the scepter is targeted, it may not be possible to keep it.

However, if it is placed in Walter's hands, we only need to keep an eye on Walter, and the scepter will be under control.

Even though it is not an easy task to keep an eye on Walter, it is better than taking unknown risks.

In order to get what he deserves, Nick Fury tried his best to tangle with Shimizu and exchange interests in other aspects.

As the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., Nick Fury has access to a lot of official resources.

He has technology, policies, connections, and funding, and these are often things that others cannot access.

Now the ownership of the Mind Gem Scepter is divided into three parts, 50.1% belongs to Qingshui, and 19.9% belongs to Captain America, because he also played a direct role in the battle against Loki in which he snatched the scepter.

Of the remaining 30%, SHIELD only owns 5%, and the remaining 25% belongs to the Avengers, and SHIELD's portion is executed by Captain America.

In other words, if Shimizu is gone one day, the custody and basic use rights of the scepter will automatically be transferred to Captain America.

And all research results about the scepter must be made public within the Avengers.

Of course, the specific research results will be decided by Qingshui.

Tony also wanted to join the research, and Qingshui didn't refuse, because the two of them were now on the same side.

In terms of influence in the capital world and wealth level, Stark is actually one level higher than himself.

After all, he inherited his father's business and has worked hard for many years. Even if he didn't run it seriously, he is still much better than me.

The powerful combination of the two is enough to make most of the forces and individuals with ideas wary.

But Shimizu must be present when Tony is doing research to avoid incidents like Ultron.

Nick Fury will also try to do some work, such as using some linguistic means to reduce the importance of the scepter in the report to the UN Security Council.

The extended version of the Rolls-Royce slowly stopped in front of the gate of Water Manor.

"Jorge, arrange a room for Mr. Banner to live in."

Qingshui reached out and opened the car door, then said to the butler who was standing at the door to greet him.

Water Manor is not as large as the "Winter White House" Lake and Sea Manor. It is just a medium-sized manor, but it covers a large area and includes facilities such as swimming pools and golf courses, not to mention rooms.

Finding a spare room isn't hard.

"Okay, Master."

Jorge saluted gracefully.

"Dr. Banner, please follow me."

"Oh, oh, okay." Banner, with sleepy eyes, followed Jorge.

Qingshui's perception swept across the surrounding area within a thousand meters, and he suddenly frowned.

In a certain room, my perception failed.

Someone came to my door so soon?
Quite resourceful.

Shimizu gestured to Jorge, asking him to take his men away from that area, then twisted his watch and put on the electric light. He held the Mind Gem scepter in one hand, and with the other arm, a high-voltage electric sword popped out, and silently began to accumulate power.

Get started first!
The surging chakra poured from Shimizu's body into the Mind Gem Scepter, was strengthened, and then returned to Shimizu's body.

He has not yet figured out a way to use the Mind Stone efficiently, so he can only resort to this most primitive method.

The energy level of the Soul Gem is extremely high, and its compatibility with Chakra is not bad. In the process of the two fusing, it further strengthened Shimizu's spiritual energy, nearly doubling the power of the Chakra.

"Breathing of Li, Second Form, Dance of Li!"

A bright blue light instantly crossed the entire golf course, stirring up grass clippings all over the sky.

This is his own manor after all, so Qingshui did not use attacks with a too large killing range right away.

His target was only the room that he could not sense.

"boom!"

The door was blown open instantly, but Qingshui's powerful attack was blocked.

"Oh, hey! You almost scared my old man!"

An old man with a white beard that was long enough to reach his chest was sitting on a recliner, holding a half-eaten hamburger in one hand and holding a seal in front of him with the other hand.

What blocked Qingshui's attack was a golden round shield summoned by the old man using a seal.

"You are……"

Qingshui looked at the old man in front of him and had some guesses in his mind.

"My last name is Yao, my clan's generation is called Gu, and my given name is Yi, so people in the English magic world call me Ancient One. I think you should know me, but the me in other worlds you know may not look like this. Maybe I'm a young man, maybe a woman, or even a Walmart shopping bag."

The white-haired old man took a bite of the hamburger and said to Qingshui.

Did Gu Yi see his origins?

No, it shouldn't be completely. Judging from what he said, he probably thinks that he is related to other parallel worlds.

For the Supreme Sorcerer who possesses the Time Stone, if the timeline changes, they can unravel the cause of the change by following the important events that will happen in the future.

In this light, it is reasonable for Gu Yi to come to find me.

"Master Gu Yi, I'm sorry that you came to me because..."

"I'm not here to cause you trouble. I'm here to prevent you from causing me trouble."

Gu Yi finished the last piece of the burger and licked his fingers.

This image of the Ancient One...

Well, it’s really different from what Qingshui imagined.

Quite lively.

"Although I don't know how you obtained the memories and abilities of your counterparts in other parallel worlds, but as far as I can see now, you won't do anything bad in the future. That seems good, doesn't it?"

"Then why did you come to see me?"
