Elden Gulong in American comics

"Unless you want to be torn to pieces by thunder."

Perhaps it was Doom's illusion. The moment these words were spoken, the thunder in his body became chaotic.

Doom smiled helplessly, put the spirit ball away, and sat in the driver's seat.

"Enter FTL voyage, target, Earth."

……

So, after experiencing an adventure, Locke saw the returning Doom, Blaze and the spaceship behind them on Earth.

"This is a much-needed gem."

Doom threw the spirit ball in his hand, and the silver-white ball disintegrated in mid-air, revealing the power gem hidden in it. Gu Long stretched out his hand, and the power gem was embedded in the glove.

The next second, there was a buzzing sound, and the reality gem originally embedded on it fell, and a purple gem was embedded in the glove, taking the place of the opponent.

"It seems that we have to follow a certain order."

Gu Long waved his hand. It was not easy to integrate the power of the infinite gems. The gems needed to be embedded in a specific order.

But now, all four Infinity Stones are in his hands, the Time Stone has been taken by Dormammu, and only the Soul Stone is missing.

When Doom saw Gu Long accepting the gems, he shrugged and walked out. He had gained a lot this time and was going to return to Latveria to digest his gains.

And Blaze also disappeared quietly. He wanted to go back to Karma Taj, perhaps because of his wandering in the starry sky. Lani's soul was almost repaired and he was about to wake up from his dream.

Gu Long looked at the kidnapped collector and Star-Lord who followed him. Star-Lord looked at Gu Long in front of him curiously, shrugged and said:

"I never knew Dungeons and Dragons was real."

"No wonder my mother didn't let me play back then."

The collector's reaction was much more direct. When he saw Locke for the first time, his eyes lit up. He cautiously came over and said:

"A beautiful and powerful race, have you ever considered adding it to my collection?"

Gu Long ignored him and struck him with a bolt of thunder, which burned him black. The Collector coughed twice, shook his numb hand, calmed down and said:

"Sorry, I'm a little excited. Guest, what do you want?"

Looking at the golden gloves on the ancient dragon's claws, the collector understood what the other party was thinking and said softly:

"If you want to know the whereabouts of other gems, I do have information here."

"Whether it's the Space Stone, the Time Stone, or the Mind Stone, I can give you a rough idea of ​​their locations."

"What I want to find is the soul gem."

Gu Long said softly, and the collector's expression changed, and then he said mysteriously: "This gem is not easy to obtain."

"All infinite gems are the condensation of the rules of the universe, but among these gems, there is also the existence of their own consciousness."

"The soul gem is one of the more special ones. His consciousness is extremely active, and he will even give people who come to him a test."

The collector said in a tone like a magician: "It is said that almost no one can complete that test."

A hint of thunder appeared impatiently in Gu Long's hand: "Do you know where the soul gem is?"

The Collector shrank, then bowed gracefully and said, "I know a general location, but I'm not sure which planet it is yet."

Gu Long nodded: "Then give me the position."

"You have to hurry up, Thanos, the Overlord of Destruction, is also looking for that gem."

Gu Long smiled slightly: "It doesn't matter, just let him find it and find the best one."

Chapter 273: Apprentice Strange

Star-Lord and the Collector left Earth, and Star-Lord received a special mission.

He wants to observe Thanos's movements. Once the other party has a tendency to move to certain galaxies, he will report this information to Gu Long.

As one of the more temperamental of the Infinity Stones, getting the Soul Stone has a special test.

That is, you need to sacrifice the person you love most so that the soul gem can appear in front of that person.

But daring to sacrifice the other person proves that the other person is not the person you love most. This is like a paradox. No matter what you choose, you can't get the best of both worlds.

Therefore, Locke chose to throw this problem to Thanos and let the other party solve the problem, while he reaped the benefits.

But this is just a casual move. If it doesn't work, Gu Long can only take action himself and have a good talk with the soul gem.

Now, he needs to turn his attention to the earth and plan how to get back the time stone in Dormammu's hand.

……

Earth, Kama Taj, and Blaze returned to this mage's holy land. Compared with before, this place is a little different.

The mages came out of the haze of Dormammu's attack. The entire Karma Taj held a high-spirited temperament. The practice ground was filled with mages who came to train, and a new batch of mage apprentices, It is also being cultivated.

Strange drew a circle in the air with trembling hands. He couldn't even summon a spark like other apprentices, and could only look at the air in front of him with helpless rage.

After being attacked, he was sent to Kama Taj by Gu Long. When Strange woke up, looking at his burned face and twisted hands, he fell into desperate pain.

Under the treatment of the Holy Tree monks, his body recovered quickly, but his fingers were never able to return to their original condition.

As a doctor, Strange knew exactly why.

The human hand is densely covered with nerves, working together with multiple joints and muscles to form this complex structure.

When treatment is used, damaged muscles and nerves will regenerate, but if the human hand is not understood, some details will go wrong.

For example, like now, my fingers twitch from time to time, and sometimes they become weak.

If it were an ordinary person, this level of treatment would be completely sufficient, but Strange wanted more. He was a surgeon and could not do without a pair of skillful hands.

So he started his study path at Kamal Taj, but obviously, this path was not smooth.

Facing group lectures, Strange couldn't keep up with the progress. As for theoretical knowledge, his eyesight was completely blank.

You can't expect an adult to successfully accept the basic theories of magic. To Strange, that stuff is like reading a bible.

He sighed and gestured again, trying to draw a circle in front of him. This was a necessary step for a mage to open the portal, but no matter how hard he tried, the hanging ring on his hand did not react at all.

"Damn, this thing is totally useless."

Seeing everyone around him summoning magic circles, Strange was a little annoyed. After class, he came to the library alone and prepared to have some quiet time.

"Master Wang, I'm here."

Wang raised his head. After returning to Karma Taj, he returned to the library he was familiar with and had heard about Strange.

"Do you want to read a book? Go ahead."

After putting away the book in his hand, Wang said to Strange, then he seemed to have thought of something and waved to Strange.

"I have a gift for you, don't let others see it."

Strange glanced at the mage in front of him. He was the de facto boss of Kama Taj. He pursed his lips and stepped forward.

"I didn't repay you for saving me before..."

In Strange's opinion, it was Lao Wang who saved him from the crazy mutant, but only Lao Wang knew that everything was Gu Long's plan.

"It's okay, I'm very optimistic about you."

As he spoke, Lao Wang took out a shield-shaped pendant and placed it in Strange's hand.

"This is a talisman with the ancient dragon emblem printed on it. It may give you some confidence."

Strange put the amulet away, nodded at Lao Wang, and then walked deeper into the library.

Lao Wang held up his hands and looked at Strange who was gradually walking away: "Is it reliable to let this guy become the Supreme Mage?"

On the way, Strange pinched the amulet in his hand, which seemed to be made of iron. This kind of amulet is very popular in New York and is one of the businesses of the Thunder Legion. It is said to have the effect of protecting health.

However, the amulet in his hand seemed to be made of a more special material and felt a little smooth. The next moment, a bolt of lightning flashed from the amulet, making Strange stunned for a moment.

"It seems to be quite effective."

Strange put the amulet away and looked around, preparing to find some books to read.

At this moment, his eyes were attracted by a large and heavy book. In his impression, this book was not here yesterday, but it seemed to have appeared suddenly today, which aroused Strange's feelings. curiosity.

He stretched out his hand and held the big book in his hands. The book was very thick and heavy at first sight.

The cover on the book is old and worn, covered with a layer of dust, as if no one has opened it for a long time.

Out of pure curiosity, Strange opened the book in front of him: "What is this?"

On top of the book, a name appeared: "Dormammu?"

At this moment, Strange didn't know what this meant. He just stroked the yellowed pages of the book. The next second, he felt as if his soul had left his body and appeared in a strange dark space.

Dormammu looked at Strange in front of him and nodded with satisfaction.

Since the restart of the magic circle, the power he can send to the earth has decreased a lot, so he urgently needs another spokesperson to work for him.

And what could be more appropriate than having a Supreme Mage become his slave?

Hence the encounter at this moment. Dormammu transformed into the Ancient One and walked up to Strange.

"I am the image left by the Supreme Mage Ancient One. Young mage apprentice, are you willing to learn from me?"

Strange nodded hesitantly. He had heard of Ancient One's name. He seemed to have died long ago, but it was much better for such a person to teach him spells than for him to study alone.

……

A few days later, Strange opened a portal with ease and took out a green tennis ball.

"Apprentice Strange, you have made great progress and can already be called a mage."

The mage responsible for teaching spells nodded and bowed to Strange. The apprentices around him cast envious glances, but only Strange knew what had happened.

He looked at the green tennis ball in his hand and threw the ball. A portal opened where the ball landed and swallowed the ball.

"Strange, I seem to like green things these days."

Strange rubbed his chin, and around his neck, the ancient dragon amulet flashed with lightning, and then disappeared again.

In the dragon's nest, Gu Long looked at the tennis ball in front of him and said with a smile:

"Look, the fish is hooked."
