Chapter 1053: Ancient One's Gift
The next day.
As soon as the sun rose, Strange and Christine drove to the Continental Hotel, and Charlotte got the news at the first time and appeared here.
Strange took Christine to the Continental Hotel. After arriving at the front desk, Strange took out the Continental Hotel gold coin, put it on the bar, and said:
"I want to have a consultation on my hands to determine whether the wax bath can treat my hands."
The front desk called out:
"Yes, yes, OK."
After hanging up the phone, the front desk took the gold coin and then said:
"Paul, take you to the treatment room for a medical consultation."
At this time, the waiter on the side came over and said:
"Please follow me."
Following the waiter, he took the elevator to the treatment room on the third floor, and then under the doctor's arrangement, Strange's hands began to undergo a full range of examinations.
After the examination, Strange and Christine anxiously waited in the room for the final result.
Christine comforted him:
"After all, this place is related to the Ninja God Charlotte Doyle, and your hands will definitely be cured."
Strange nodded:
"I hope there will be a good result."
Time passed by minute by minute, and after waiting for an hour, a doctor in a white coat came in and said:
"Strange, your test results are out."
"But from the time you had a car accident to now, you have undergone many treatments and have missed the best time for wax bath treatment."
"If you were sent here for treatment at the beginning of the car accident, you could recover the damaged hand nerves, but now you have missed the best time for treatment..."
Hearing the words of the doctor in front of him, the hope in Strange's eyes dissipated, and a feeling of despair spread over him. If his hands cannot be cured here, then where is there hope?
At this moment, the doctor changed the subject and said:
"But you are lucky to meet the God of Ninja who came to the Continental Hotel."
"That gentleman is interested in your case, maybe you can get treatment from him."
Hearing the other party's words, Strange was stunned for a moment, and then slowly asked:
"You said that the God of Ninja Charlotte Doyle wants to see me, I hope to get treatment from him?"
The doctor nodded:
"Yes, so please follow me."
"As for this lady, you can wait here."
Christine looked at Strange and said:
"Go, Stephen, this may be your last chance."
Hearing Christine's encouragement, Strange stood up and followed the doctor to another room.
At this time, Charlotte Doyle was sitting on the sofa, and as the door was opened, Stephen Strange was walked in.
Looking at the haggard man in front of her, Charlotte said:
"Stephen Strange."
Strange looked at the man in front of him and said respectfully:
"Mr. Charlotte."
Then Strange asked nervously:
"Sir, is there really a chance for my hands to recover?"
Looking at Strange's outstretched hands, Charlotte slowly said:
"What price are you willing to pay to heal these hands?"
Strange immediately said:
"How much money is needed? I will raise it immediately."
Charlotte shook her head and asked:
"This is not something that can be solved with money."
Strange was silent for three seconds, then asked:
"What do you need?"
Obviously Strange also guessed that he might have something the other party needed, but he didn't know what it was.
Hearing Strange's words, Charlotte smiled and then said:
"I need you in the future to give me an item."
"Of course it's not your soul, but it's something you will lose in the future."
Strange thought for a while, then asked:
"You mean, I will get an item in the future and have it for a short time, but will eventually lose it completely."
Charlotte nodded:
"Your analysis is correct."
Strange was a little surprised. What does this mean? Does the God of Ninja still have the ability to see through the future?
At this time, he didn't know whether he should believe the other party's words, but assuming that all this is true, since it is bound to be lost, then there is no problem in handing it over to the other party at that time.
As for being deceived, if both hands are always disabled, then there is not much value in being deceived.
"Okay, I promise you."
Seeing that Strange agreed happily, Charlotte took out the task commission and placed it in front of Strange.
"Then sign your name on it."
Strange picked up the pen and signed his name on it with difficulty.
"When will the treatment start?"
Charlotte put away the commission letter and then said:
"I will take you to a place, but before that you need to arrange your girlfriend first."
"After all, your trip may take a long time."
Strange asked in confusion:
"Is it far?"
Charlotte nodded:
"Very far."
Then Strange left the room and found Christine waiting outside.
"Christine."
Christine asked:
"How is it, Stephen, is your hand saved?"
Strange nodded and said:
"I met the God of Ninja, Charlotte Doyle."
"He will take me to a place for treatment, but he said it is far away and the treatment will take a long time."
Christine saved Strange excitedly, and then said excitedly:
"Great, I knew your hand must be saved here."
"How much does the treatment cost? I will go back and arrange it immediately, and the house will be sold to the customer with the highest bid."
Strange stroked Christine's hair, and then said gently:
"You have worked hard during this period."
"You don't have to sell the house. Mr. Charlotte didn't charge any money."
Hearing that no money was charged, Christine immediately thanked:
"You are worthy of being a superhero, the God of Ninja, it is really God on earth."
Strange opened his mouth and did not say that he would give an item to the other party in the future.
"I'll contact you when I get there."
"We'll get married after the treatment."
"Christine, will you marry me?"
Christine hugged Strange excitedly and said happily:
"I do, even if I can't recover."
"Of course, I'll wait for you to come back and marry me after the treatment."
Strange let go of Christine, and then said:
"Then we'll contact each other by phone. You can only go home by yourself today."
Christine nodded, then watched Stephen walk into the room, and then turned and left the Continental Hotel.
Looking at Strange who came in, Charlotte said:
"Since you've said goodbye to your lover, let's go."
Strange nodded:
"How do we go, by plane or by car?"
"Do you need me to prepare a passport?"
Charlotte smiled, and then said:
"No need to be so troublesome."
Charlotte waved her hand and opened a wormhole in front of her, leading directly to Kamar-Taj.
Looking at the space-time wormhole in front of him, Strange's eyes widened. He knew that the extraordinary people were extremely powerful, and the ninjas had all kinds of abilities, but he never thought it could be so convenient.
"Come in with me."
Charlotte walked to Kamar-Taj, and Strange followed her in after seeing everything she did.
"Merlin Supreme!"
"Merlin Supreme!"
When the mages saw Charlotte coming, they all stopped and greeted Charlotte.
Strange on the side was a little confused, and then asked:
"Aren't you the God of Ninja?"
"What does Supreme Merlin mean?"
"And where is this place?"
Looking at the curious Strange, Charlotte answered his question:
"I am the God of Ninja and Supreme Merlin."
"As for Supreme Merlin, it represents the lofty status and power among the wizards. You will understand it later."
"As for this place, it is Kamar-Taj."
"I will take you to see the Supreme Lord here, the Supreme Wizard Ancient One."
"Here, your hands will be restored."
"Of course, the way of restoration will be completely different from what you think."
Strange followed Charlotte Doyle with curiosity.
At this time, Master Mordo came over and said respectfully:
"Supreme Merlin, Master Ancient One is waiting for you."
While speaking, Mordo looked at Strange behind Charlotte, and then walked forward.
Coming to the room where Master Ancient One was, Charlotte took Strange in.
Ancient One looked at Charlotte and Strange who had arrived, and said with a smile:
"This is much earlier than I expected."
"I thought you would wait until he collected all the gold coins before bringing him here."
Obviously, in the timeline that Ancient One saw, Charlotte waited until Strange collected 11 Continental Hotel gold coins and the wax bath treatment failed before bringing him to Kamar-Taj.
Charlotte smiled and said:
"I don't think Mr. Stephen wants to delay that long."
"After all, it takes a long time for him to collect 11 gold coins."
Strange looked at the two people communicating, nodded and said:
"I hope my hands can recover soon."
Charlotte looked at Strange at this time and said:
"As long as you worship him as your teacher, you can get a way to treat your hands."
Because of the large number of ninjas and endless supernatural beings appearing, coupled with the propaganda of the government and S.H.I.E.L.D., Strange has a great degree of acceptance of the knowledge of supernatural magicians.
He knelt directly in front of Master Ancient One and said:
"Master Ancient One, please accept me as your apprentice."
Looking at Strange who came up to become his apprentice, Ancient One smiled and glanced at Charlotte and said:
"Okay, I accept you."
"Master Mordo, take Mr. Strange to where he lives."
Mordo stood up and said to Strange:
"Come with me."
Strange stood up and followed Mordo out, and before leaving, he glanced at Charlotte Doyle.
Watching the two leave, Charlotte said:
"I have sent the person to you."
Ancient One then had a crystal ball in her hand. She took it in her hand, looked at the crystal ball in her hand and said:
"I have traveled through the multiverse and saw a very interesting world."
"You don't exist in that universe, or countless multiverses have never discovered your presence."
"But everything in that universe is similar to and different from ours, but I think you will be interested in it."
"This treasure will take you to that universe for a week in 2023, and then you will be teleported back after the energy is exhausted."
Hearing Ancient One's words, Charlotte was stunned for a moment. In 2023 of another Marvel universe, wouldn't that be the time period of Avengers 4 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe?
Of course, this is just Charlotte's guess. Maybe it will be other universes? If the universe, the lost universe, the Miss America universe, after all, the number of Marvel universes is not small at all.
Just as Charlotte was thinking, Ancient One continued:
"Of course, the premise is that you have to be prepared."
"After all, you don't have to rush to use this thing."
Looking at the crystal ball-shaped item in Ancient One's hand, Charlotte reached out and took it.
"That is to say, I have a chance to travel the multiverse and face the future timeline."
Ancient One smiled and nodded:
"That's right, of course I believe that traveling the multiverse will not be difficult for you in the future."
"But I want to remind you that the danger of the multiverse will only be greater, not smaller."
Hearing Ancient One's words, Charlotte nodded, and then said:
"I understand."
After putting the treasure into the storage space, Charlotte said goodbye:
"Since Strange has sent it here, I still have some things to arrange here, so I won't bother you, Master."
Ancient One looked at Charlotte, and then said:
"Make good use of this opportunity, I believe you will experience different scenery in the multiverse."
Charlotte nodded, then opened the space-time wormhole and said goodbye.
Back to the base, Charlotte took out the gift she got from Ancient One, an opportunity to travel to other Marvel universes, or the timeline of 2023.
Since Ancient One mentioned 2023, the biggest possibility is the timeline of the final battle of Avengers 4.
A serious and energetic Thanos.
Charlotte really feels a little excited when she thinks about going to the timeline of Avengers 4 to fight Thanos.
However, since Ancient One asked her to be prepared before going, it means that there is a possibility of failure. It seems that she needs to prepare for a while.
Fortunately, Strange also needs time to learn magic. The time when he became the Sorcerer Supreme is enough for him to prepare to meet Thanos in that world.
She took a look at the three gems on her Infinity Gauntlet, but she didn't know what the difference in strength would be between Thanos in her universe and Thanos in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
