American TV series: Starting with exploiting young Sheldon

His eyes secretly glanced at the computer screen on the desk.

By the way, this person also has another identity: a high-ranking Hydra member who infiltrated S.H.I.E.L.D.

"Of course, thank you for your concern." Nick smiled as he saw his old friend.

As someone with paranoia, Nick doesn't have many friends, and Pierce happens to be one of them.

……

"Mike, there's a black guy who asked me to ask you if you'd like to join his Avengers team." Back at Stark Tower, after exchanging names with Mike, Tony remembered Nick's request.

“As a traveler, I have no intention of joining any organization.” Mike shook his head, not wanting to get involved in the mess between S.H.I.E.L.D. and Hydra.

That wouldn't help him gather faith power at all; in fact, it would only cause him a lot of trouble and waste his time.

"A wise choice. I also don't think the other party is a good person." Tony, who had a lot of opinions about Nick or the Apple City incident, didn't really want to get involved in so much trouble.

Then, smiling, he said, "Besides, as a friend I acknowledge, even if you do nothing, you'll still have a very happy life."

Tony has no shortage of money.

Mike saved his life before, so he'll naturally reap the rewards later.

"Come on, I'll take you to have some fun. I won't say much, you can choose the pretty girls in Playboy first..." After the battle, you need to relax. Tony grinned and put his arm around Mike's shoulder.

Everyone here is so handsome, their taste must be the same too.

Of course, these are all Tony's personal thoughts.

At least in terms of looks, this middle-aged man approaching forty is no match for the young and handsome Mike.

"Let's leave the event for next time. I need to meet someone right now." After sensing a powerful energy fluctuation coming from the direction of the Apple City Temple, Mike made an appointment with Tony for the next operation and then flew towards the Temple.

"Looks like our new friend is busy. So anyone want to join me? I'll pay for everything." After watching Mike leave, Tony turned his attention to the remaining group.

After this battle in Apple City, the group of people present had become acquainted through thick and thin.

Tony is always generous to his own people.

"I feel a little hungry, can we go get something to eat?" Banner, after reverting to his original form, suggested in a low voice.

As a troublemaker, Dr. Banner's life is not easy, and he is even struggling to make ends meet.

For him, having a big meal is a happy thing.

"I agree to go get something to eat!" Captain America then expressed his willingness as well.

Compared to unhealthy team-building activities, the old-fashioned person prefers to do normal things.

Besides, there are ladies present.

"Do you have any beer?" Thor asked, much more simply.

I'm having an alcohol craving...

“You want a big meal, you want beer, and there’s a lady…” Tony thought for a moment and said, “I’ve got it. I heard there’s a new pizzeria on the corner of the shopping street, which will perfectly meet our needs…”

"The only thing I need to consider is whether the owner of that small shop has run away too far."

Chapter 658 Kama Taj

"Sir traveler, may I ask what your purpose is in coming here?"

In the general store in front of the New York Temple, the Ancient One, dressed in a yellow robe, stared intently at Mike, who was flying in from a distance.

Clearly, this supreme sorcerer who protects Earth has been secretly monitoring Thanos's army, while also keeping an eye on Mike, this visitor from another world.

“Like I said, I’m a traveler. I’m here simply for tourism.” Mike reiterated his identity, indicating that he meant no harm.

[Astral Projection (Characteristic)]...[Energy Control (Characteristic)]...[Energy Manipulation (Characteristic)]...[Interdimensional Teleportation (Characteristic)]...

[Mental Ability (Trait)]...[Dark Energy Drain (Trait)]...

[Time Travel (Special Feature)]... [Time Manipulation (Special Feature)]... [Future Foresight (Special Feature)]... [Causal Intervention (Special Feature)]...

[Magic Energy +300E]...[Time Energy +200E]...

While the Ancient One was observing Mike, Mike also obtained many special orbs from the Ancient One and the Time Stone.

In particular, the abilities of [Astral Projection] and [Cross-Dimensional Teleportation] are unique. One allows one to separate one's own or another's soul from their body, while the other allows one to create a mirror space under one's control.

These two abilities may not be the strongest, but either one is incredibly cool to use.

It suits Mike's style perfectly...

Meanwhile, after gathering the energy of the three Infinity Stones, as well as the energy from Thanos and the Sorcerer Supreme, Mike's total energy finally surpassed the 100 billion mark.

The life level has also increased from Creation Level 3 to Creation Level 4.

With the breakthrough of the minor bottleneck at the Genesis level, Mike's strength has finally entered the ranks of dimensional powerhouses.

They now have the confidence to fight against the strongest in every dimension.

At the same time, the Ancient One also sensed the powerful aura emanating from Mike due to his leap in life level.

“If you’re just here for tourism, I welcome you on behalf of Kamar-Taj and the three sanctuaries…” Although the Ancient One wasn’t as afraid of Mike as Thanos was, she still showed due respect to those who were no weaker than herself.

He then said, "No matter what problems you encounter in the future, you can contact me through the three great temples. I'm happy to help if it harms the interests of this planet."

As an outsider, Mike's past and future were not something the Ancient One could see through the Space Stone.

Gu Yi naturally needs to treat this unstable factor with caution.

The saying goes: "Courtesy first, then force..."

Before Mike showed any obvious malice, he was also someone the Ancient One should befriend.

Meanwhile, the Ancient One, still busy with many things, opened a circular portal to leave after expressing her goodwill.

“Wait, could you take me to Kamar-Taj? I’m quite interested in your magical abilities…” Mike called out to the Ancient One just in time.

The mages in this plane are all considered extraordinary beings.

Kamar-Taj, where they gathered, was a great place for Mike to get some freebies, so he couldn't miss it.

Gu Yi was surprised that Mike would make the request so quickly.

However, sensing no malice from the other party, he nodded slightly and said, "Come with me."

……

"Who's that? He's really handsome. Could he be a new recruit like us...?"

"It shouldn't be, the period for Kamar-Taj's student recruitment has already passed..."

"Besides, he doesn't look like he's here to be a trainee..."

"..."

At this time, a new batch of magic apprentices gathered in Kamar-Taj Square, located in the Himalayas.

The arrival of the Sorcerer Supreme and the stranger Mike quickly caught their attention.

"Quiet. To become a mage, you must learn to concentrate and control your magic with your mind..."

Karl Mordo, as the instructor of the new cadets, was also curious as to why the Sorcerer Supreme had brought back a stranger for no apparent reason.

But before that, he had fulfilled his duties as a teacher very well.

The magic apprentices quickly regained their focus under Baron Mordo's oppressive atmosphere, which resembled that of a headmaster, and began to seriously study basic magic.

"Magic is very mysterious, composed of mental strength, willpower, and other factors. Using magic is to condense these forces into a stable state..."

Seeing that Mike seemed quite interested in magic, the Ancient One gave a brief explanation of the principles of magic, then called out to Baron Mordo, who was standing not far away, "Mordo, come here for a second."

“This is my guest, Mr. Mike the traveler. He may be staying in Kamar-Taj for a while. Please demonstrate the structure of magic for him.”

The magic in Kamar-Taj is not a big secret, and the Ancient One is not a conservative old-fashioned person.

Therefore, those who are "destined" for magic can come here to learn magic.

Mike is now clearly the one destined for us.

"To learn, you must first understand your own true nature, and then concentrate your will into magic..."

After seeing Mike's youthful appearance, Mordo assumed he was a "connected" student who had come to learn magic, and so he began to lecture him in a rigid manner: "Like this, first condense the magic into a line, and then spread the line into a surface..."

The orange-red magic unfolded, then transformed into various complex geometric images.

"That's enough for now. Try it yourself. Once you can condense magic power, come back to me to learn more profound ways to use magic." After briefly demonstrating his magic power, Baron Mordo stopped and stood aside.

Their attitude wasn't very friendly.

It's clear that he has some reservations about Mike, who is a "nepotism hire".

[Energy Manipulation (Trait)]...[Telepathy (Trait)]...[Phantom Clone (Trait)]...[Summon Demon (Trait)]...

[Magic Energy +8000 million]... [Dark Energy +6000 million]...

"No need for that trouble. I've already grasped the basics of magic." Having collected a large number of characteristic orbs again, Mike had no interest in wasting time with Mordo.

Then he stretched out his hands and instantly condensed a pure white line, different from the orange-red magic.

Then, just as Mordo had demonstrated before, the pure white line transformed into various complex geometric shapes.

Finally, it was even innovated and bent into a giant light shield, protecting Mike.

The dazzling scene instantly drew gasps of amazement from the magic apprentices nearby.

Strange, who was still unable to condense magic in the crowd, had an expression of envy that was almost overflowing on his face.

As for Mike, he is a man of many talents and already possesses the power of holy light.

Once you understand the basic principles of magic, you'll naturally be able to pull off many amazing tricks.

"A very stable magic structure..."

Unlike the narrow-mindedness of a magic apprentice, the Ancient One, the Sorcerer Supreme, could better appreciate Mike's talent in spellcasting.

When other mages cast spells, orange-red sparks fly everywhere, which is a sign of an unstable magical structure.

The pure white magic that Mike unleashed had edges as smooth as polished glass.

This means he has very strong control over magic.

At least, with the same amount of magic power, the magic that Mike casts will be more powerful.

"If you are interested in magic, the doors of Kamar-Taj are always open to you." Out of appreciation for Michael's talent, the Ancient One made this promise after praising his magical abilities.

"Thank you for your generosity~" Mike withdrew his magic, smiled and nodded.

Sincerity is mutual. After the Ancient One showed enough goodwill, Mike naturally wouldn't keep a cold face.

Even the promise from the Supreme Master was of little use to him.

Yes, Mike, who got the Sorcerer Supreme and Mordo's wool, has now learned almost all the common magic in Kamar-Taj.

“Alright, Mordo. You can continue teaching. Next, I need to arrange accommodation for Mr. Mike.” The Ancient One woke Mordo from his daze.

"Please go ahead," Mo Du said, bowing and retreating as he came to his senses.

Before leaving, he glanced at Mike, seemingly unintentionally, with an ambiguous look in his eyes.

As is well known, in Kamar-Taj, apart from the Ancient One, the Sorcerer Supreme, other sorcerers need to use a slingshot to assist them when using magic.

Mordo deliberately didn't tell Mike this beforehand, wanting to see this "connected person" make a fool of himself.

Unexpectedly, Mike's magical talent was so powerful.

So powerful that it aroused Mordo's jealousy.

“Please come with me, I’ll show you where we’re staying. It might be a bit basic for you…” Unaware of Mordo’s sinister intentions, the Ancient One led Mike away from the plaza and headed back.

Kamar-Taj can be considered a cradle for training mages, and perhaps to hone the will of magic apprentices, the living facilities here are quite rudimentary.

Apart from the ornate library, most of the houses in the residential area are small, single-story wooden structures.

Chopping wood... Carrying water... Honing martial arts skills...

The monks living here also lead ascetic lives.

"Could you take me to the library first?" Mike was naturally not interested in this semi-primitive lifestyle.

After all, he didn't come here specifically to suffer...
