There are currently two coordinates closest to the host, Spike and Sersi, and locating each requires 5,000 points."

"It seems that these two people live together!" Ling Ge thought, "Let's locate them!"

After a while, an exact coordinate appeared in Ling Ge's mind. He walked down the stairs, greeted Strange briefly, and then walked to several portals.

"Um...which portal leads to the London Temple?"

"Ahem!" Strange almost choked, "Where are you going and what are you doing?"

"The nearest Eternals are in London. We can go there through the portal and have a temporary place to stay." Ling Ge explained seriously.

"The one on your right leads to the London Temple. The one guarding there now is Master Daniel."

"Got it." Ling Ge waved his hand and stepped into the portal.

London Temple.

Ling Ge walked out of the portal and passed through several long corridors before arriving at the lobby on the first floor.

Master Daniel looked at Ling Ge in confusion, "Why did you think of coming to me?"

"I'm in London to meet two people, and I might have to stay with you for a day or two.

If it is convenient, please prepare a room for me first. If it is not convenient, then I can only..."

"Convenient!" Master Daniel said immediately, "You can stay as long as you want."

"So enthusiastic?" Ling Ge was suddenly at a loss, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: There are still some mages who know how to repay kindness!

A hint of smile appeared on Daniel’s serious face, “I’ll tell you the truth!

Protecting the safety of the temple is an extremely important task, and I dare not slack off in this regard.

But if you move in, the situation will be different. With your strength, you will be able to deal with any threat, and I will be able to relax a lot."

"Huh?" Ling Ge blinked, his heart suddenly skipped a beat.

No wonder Strange agreed without a second thought when the idea of ​​living in the New York Temple and Kamar-Taj was proposed. Now it seems that there is really no free lunch in the world.

But even if he knew, he couldn't say anything. This was a relatively fair deal. While he was eating and living for free, he naturally had to serve as a guard.

"Oh! People's hearts are really not as they used to be!

Are all mages nowadays so calculating?" Ling Ge smiled bitterly and shook his head.

Master Daniel's expression changed slightly, "Don't you want to help guard the temple?

Alas! That's a pity. Kamar-Taj will not force its guests to do anything they don't want to do.

Fortunately, you are very strong. If a disaster really strikes, you can protect yourself. I don't need to worry about you."

"No, I don't mean that." Ling Ge waved his hand and said reluctantly, "My wife and sister are still living in Kamar-Taj.

If the situation becomes extremely critical, I will definitely take action."

"Are you serious?"

"Of course." Ling Ge gritted his teeth and said, "I keep my word."

"Okay!" Master Daniel also breathed a sigh of relief, but his face still showed guilt, "But sir, please don't force it!"

"Don't worry, you don't need to remind me of this." Ling Ge looked at Daniel seriously, "If I really can't stand it anymore, I will definitely run faster than you."

Daniel: ...

Why does this script seem a little off? Shouldn't it be said that it's not forced?

Ling Ge: You want to kidnap me with this level? Your rank is far inferior to Ancient One.

...

Walking out of the temple gate, Ling Ge followed the direction of the coordinates, ready to talk to Sersi about life and tell her that the mutants have not been completely extinct.

When he was walking through an intersection, he couldn't help but slap his forehead when he saw a picture on a billboard.

A golden dagger stands out on the huge billboard, with a caption next to it: Artifacts that shaped human history.

Obviously, in 5000 BC, Circe did not listen to him and still stubbornly left the dagger to the boy.

More than half an hour later, Ling Ge arrived at a museum and followed the arrow given by the coordinates to the outside of a classroom.

Then I saw Serhi giving a lecture to her students at the podium. Besides her, there was a man smiling and talking to her.

Judging from the close contact between the two, this man should be her boyfriend.

Soon, the man came out and was obviously stunned when he saw Ling Ge standing at the door.

"Hi! Serxi's boyfriend." Ling Ge took the initiative to greet him.

"Um, hello! Have we met before?"

"Probably not." Ling Ge said, "I came here to look for Serxi, but it seems that she is not free."

"What do you want to see her for?" the man asked warily.

Ling Ge saw the hint of hostility in his eyes and didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Don't get me wrong, I'm a married man and I won't steal your girlfriend.

Besides, my relationship with her is very shallow. We haven't been in touch for a long time. We can barely be considered ordinary friends, so you don't need to feel any sense of crisis. "

Hearing Ling Ge say this, the man felt a little relieved, "What do you want to see her for?"

"I'm sorry I can't tell you this. Sersi probably wouldn't want you to know either."

The man's eyes moved slightly, and he turned his head to look at Serhi who was teaching seriously, and stretched out his right hand, "My name is Dane, if it's convenient, we can go to another place to talk.

There’s a nice cafe nearby, it’s my treat.”

Ling Ge raised his eyebrows, as if he had figured something out, and shook hands with him, "My name is Ling Ge, if someone treats me to a meal, I will definitely take advantage of it.

But I have to be frank up front, I can’t give you all the answers.”

"Knowing a little bit is a little bit. I am mentally prepared."

Ling Ge looked at Dane in surprise, then patted him on the shoulder, "I hope so!"

...

A few minutes later, Dane sat down with Ling Ge in the cafe, "What would you like to drink?"

“Whatever, the most expensive one will do.

Remember to add some sugar, I suddenly want to drink something sweet today."

"Okay, no problem." Dane placed the order directly and ordered the same cup of coffee for himself.

"Open and bright." Ling Ge gave a thumbs up.

"Today is my birthday, so it's okay to be extravagant."

"Okay, stop pretending to be relaxed.

I am a private detective after all, and your little tricks are written all over your face, you can't hide them from me."

Dane smiled awkwardly, "Since you are an old friend of Serxi, you should know what I want to know, right?"

"Almost." Ling Ge took a sip of coffee. "How well do you know your girlfriend?"

"Name, hobbies, blood type, zodiac sign, occupation, clothing style, eating habits, family situation, etc., etc. I know everything I can know."

"Good guy, what a good guy.

Buddy, let's not talk about anything else, just based on your understanding, I know you really like her." Ling Ge sighed, it is not easy for a normal human being to achieve this.

"But I always feel like something is missing. It seems like she's hiding a lot of things from me."

"Ahem! Correction.

Not a lot, but a lot.

Do you know how old she is this year?"

"She's officially 26," Dane said, "but Spike once revealed that she and her ex-boyfriend broke up a century ago."

"Poof!" Ling Ge spat out a mouthful of coffee at this unexpected gain, feeling a bit amused and helpless, "Do you believe this?"

863. You can't control this woman, Spike who wants to grow up

"I don't believe it." Dane shook his head, "But some things in life make me...have to believe it.

For example, when the waiter ignores us, water turns into coffee.

And after all that has happened on Earth, I also believe in the existence of wizards and magic."

"So... you think she's a wizard?" Ling Ge asked playfully, "It's not impossible to say that, but it's still a small idea."

"What do you mean?"

“I prefer to call Sersi an alchemist. Her ability is to change the structure of matter, which is fundamentally different from Doctor Strange’s magic.

You are really lucky to have such a girlfriend. Turning water into coffee is a piece of cake." Ling Ge said excitedly, "If she wants, she can turn waste paper into banknotes and bricks into gold, very pure gold.

It is not a dream that your wealth will surpass Tony Stark in a few days."

The corner of Dane's mouth twitched slightly. "It sounds good, but I don't care about those things. As long as we like each other, life doesn't have to be so extravagant. Just be simple and happy."

"Hmm?" Ling Ge adjusted his sitting position and took a sip of coffee. "No wonder Serxi fell in love with you. Although I don't know much about her, it's obvious that you have the same values."

"Thank you!" Dane smiled. He was very happy to be recognized by others.

"Don't thank me yet." Ling Ge waved his hand. "I want to ask you a very serious question. I hope you can answer it seriously."

"You ask."

"Ahem! Regardless of whether Circe is healthy or sick in the future, regardless of what fatal disasters she may bring to you, or regardless of whether she will have to leave you for some reason in the future, are you willing to stay with her forever?"

"Why do I feel like this is something a priest would say?" Dane asked with a strange look on his face, "Don't you think it's more appropriate to ask this question at a wedding?"

"That's not important, you just need to answer."

"Yes." Dane nodded solemnly.

Ling Ge was stunned for a moment, then patted Dane on the shoulder and said earnestly, "What a good man!

But listen to my advice, you can't control this woman, you two are not suitable..."

"Wait, this is something we both agreed to, why are we not suitable for each other?"

Ling Ge hesitated for a moment, then selected a more reasonable answer from several options and said thoughtfully, "You are not of the right age."

"That's it?" Dane said he didn't care. He could accept that his girlfriend was a 'wizard', and the age issue was naturally within his consideration.

"Believe me, this is enough." Ling Ge said solemnly. This is not a gap of a few hundred years, but a gap of seven thousand years.

“I can’t say more about the details, but if you two really love each other, she will tell you the answer sooner or later.

At that time, I might consider attending your wedding in exchange for your coffee."

"It's a bit early!" Dane was a little embarrassed. "But you can come to my birthday party tonight. I invite you as a friend."

"Friend?" Ling Ge pointed at himself, somewhat surprised and amused, "It should be no more than an hour since we met! Or are you always so careless in making friends?"

"Of course not, I just like you and want to invite you to the party.

How about it? Do me a favor?

By the way, Circe and Spike will definitely come."

"Is that so?" Ling Ge touched his chin, "That's not impossible."

Rumble!

At this moment, the ground suddenly began to shake violently, the two coffee cups also kept shaking, and brown coffee splashed on the table.

"Is it an earthquake?" Dane said hurriedly, "Hide under the table quickly?"

"Don't worry, it will only be over in half a minute." Ling Ge said indifferently. He had seen the end of the world several times, so a mere earthquake was nothing.

Sure enough, half a minute later, everything returned to normal.

Dane crawled out from under the table, looked at the calm Ling Ge in surprise, picked up his cup of coffee and took a sip in a trance, trying to calm himself down as much as possible.

"Well, you have to come to the party tonight. It's at 8pm. The venue is at the second-floor bar two blocks west!"

"I know, I'll go."
