[Comprehensive British and American] Super British can't save the world

In public, he's still the smug billionaire playboy, or sometimes Iron Man, and back at the apartment, he's a loner.

He doesn't believe in others, nor in himself, and his self-identity has been reduced to an extremely low level. This is the first time for "Tony Stark". After he went to MIT at the age of 14, he never doubted it. my ability.

What happened to this world?What's wrong? !

Bruce Banner had a talk with him and scolded him for hiding Alicia.

Stephen Strange was not polite to him either, and sprayed him with a very sarcastic tone for half an hour, but he didn't even speak back.

"You hurt her," Strange calmed down and changed his tone to be peaceful. "She's not a child. You can't hide from her and think she won't get angry. Mr. Stark, you seriously lack trust in others. It's not good. You should find a psychiatrist to solve your problem."

Tony finally regained his language ability, "That has nothing to do with you."

Strange shrugged, "It has nothing to do with me, but it has something to do with Alicia. She has been in a very unhealthy living environment for a long time, and she has—" choose words carefully, "amazing Superpowers, If she can't understand the world and learn to use her abilities properly, neither you nor I can imagine what she can do. I don't want her to be hurt, especially mentally. She used to trust you, although I Don't know what that trust is based on, but you've broken her trust in you now, which sucks."

Strange pursed his lips, looking very dissatisfied, "Before you make a decision without authorization, you should think more about how the other party will react."

Tony stared at him: Obviously you are not a guy who can fully respect others, okay!

But now, he didn't even have the mood to argue with him.

Asimov said that the volcano that Alicia took him to that day was Mount Tongariro near Wellington, New Zealand. Mount Tongariro had just erupted on November 11 and is still active.He wondered if she was trying to push him into the crater and turn him into a roast.

He took out a brocade box from a drawer of the mini bar, put it on the bar, and pushed it carefully, "Please give this to her."

"What is it?" Strange didn't take the brocade box.

"A gadget I made for her that increases—what do you say? Magical affinity?"

"I'm not sure she'll take it."

"She will take it. This is her thing, a kind of metal that Saul gave her." He originally wanted to give it to her with his own hands, and he wanted to see her eyes sparkle when she received an unexpected gift Liang's expression, this will be much more enjoyable than designing another battle suit for himself——

He regrets it, but if he can do it again, he will probably still make the same choice: he has never been the kind of person who waits for others to come to his door. If there is a threat, he must take the initiative to deal with it first, and he can't just wait. Too passive.

As for Alicia, he really didn't think much about her reaction.his fault.So now that she's gone, it's kind of fair.

Strange took the brocade box.

The penthouse was sadly empty, and Tony went downstairs again, deciding to spend a few days in the technology development lab.

New York Temple.

Alicia receives guests in the living room.

Tommy Kieran was a little absent-minded and a little cramped: Alicia didn't live in the Avengers headquarters anymore, but she changed to an even weirder place, what a mysterious girl.

"I wanted to see you before, but... the security guard downstairs in your apartment wouldn't let me go up."

Cough, of course he wouldn't just put him there, she wasn't in the apartment at all.

"I've been living here since I got sick." The exterior of the temple looks like an ordinary townhouse. If you sit in the living room, you won't notice it.

"What—is this place? I mean, is it your house?" But then she became suspicious. Almost everyone knew she was from a small town in Kansas, and there was no reason why she would have a mansion in Greenwich Village.

"Just a temporary stay. How about you? Are you feeling better recently?" Changed the subject easily.

Tommy had no choice but to answer: "I'm much better, and I can go to class normally. Oh, yes, why don't you go to school? Are you going to transfer? Selena asked me about your situation, and I couldn't answer at all."

"It's preparing to transfer."

The most worrying thing happened.Tommy panicked, "Then... can I still date you in the future?"

"Have we dated?" She asked him with her chin held high.

Indeed, just going out for dessert or something isn't really a "date" at all.Most of their activities are in the school, and they have never had any further intimate contact than kissing and hugging, and their purity is a mess.Pretty girls always like athletes who are more physically fit and more popular. There are a lot of boys in school who want to approach Alicia. Except for a few people, almost everyone likes her, so when she agrees to be his dance partner, He was quite surprised.

Surprised, or surprised, or whatever.

She took two months of sick leave, but she didn't look sick at all, just like him, she didn't really feel sick when she took sick leave.Does she have a big secret?Since it is related to Tony Stark, it is not surprising that there is any double identity.

"Do you have time on Saturday? I'll treat you to a movie, okay?"

Alicia hesitated for a moment, remembering that not only did she think Tommy was a bit weird, but Natasha also said he was a bit weird, so she refused, "I have something to do, so I can't go out with you." She stood up, "I take you out."

Stephen Strange stood at the stairs on the second floor, beckoning to her, "Come here."

Alicia closed the door casually, "What's the matter?"

"Why don't you go out with Tommy?"

"I don't want to." Looking at him, "What? As Karma Taj's disciples, do you even care who you date?"

Strange smiled, "That's not true." He took out a brocade box from his pocket, "This is from Stark."

She took the brocade box and opened it. Inside was a card. She picked up the card and put a silver-gray metal bracelet under it.

Strange was quite surprised, "Is it jewelry?"

She put on the bracelet, "No, it's Asgard's unique metal, Wulu, which is said to have the effect of enhancing magic." She swiped her hands on her chest, and soon, a magic pattern with complex lines appeared in midair.

Continue waving his hands, making magic gestures one after another, large patterns are covered with small patterns, and there are 7 or 8 magic patterns of different sizes and functions superimposed together to form a three-dimensional magic map.

"Kama Taj's most complex and profound magic is the magic of time," she pinched a citrus seed with her right index finger and thumb, and put it in the center of the magic circle. Shrouded in golden light, it began to germinate, twitch, and grow extremely quickly. "Physically speaking, you can't step into the same river, which means that theoretical time travel does not exist. Maybe you can go back to 'the past' through a wormhole, but if you modify the history, a new time branch will be generated. It’s no longer the universe you came from, you can’t guarantee to wait for you to ‘go back to the future’, what awaits you is still the world you know.”

"Multiverse theory." In theory, there can be countless parallel universes, but people in the existing universe cannot perceive other universes.

"Space can be folded. For example, there will be a curvature engine or similar inventions in the future, but time is one-way and constant. This is the universal physical principle of the universe, and there is no way to violate this principle. Therefore, I can make a seed germinate, grow, flower, and bear fruit very quickly, but I have no way of reversing the process."

"But if you modify the past to become the reality you want, then of course it is acceptable that reality has been modified, and people who live in 'that' reality universe, such as me, have no idea that reality has been modified, So I can accept it without burden and continue to live like this. So, time travel may exist, no matter whether there is any 'grandfather paradox'." Strange has also done a lot of research on "time".

She nodded, "Yeah, so I just can't do it now, and once I do it, go back to the past and modify what has happened, you will not be you, it will be another group of people, although they have exactly the same appearance .”

"You—" Strange thought carefully for a long time, "Have you modified the timeline before?"

"I don't remember, at least since Wallachia, I haven't done anything to change the timeline."

"Don't mess around with the timeline," he said gently, "The king finally found a disciple with a strong magical talent like you. If he loses you, he will be very sad for a long time."

Alicia smiled at him, "He won't remember me then."

"I will remember you," he shrugged casually, "I will definitely remember a magician who is stronger than me."

She simply laughed.

Although she said she was "not free" on Saturday and rejected Tommy, Alicia went out on Saturday, and Stephen Strange went to the movies with her.

In the cinema foyer, both of them raised their heads and looked at the film schedule with serious expressions.

"Horror, or romance? Or gangster?" he asked.

"Horror film."

As a result, she sees horror movies more than comedies.

People who don't have the concept of "fear" in their hearts can't understand what a "horror movie" is, and while watching it, they complained to Strange, saying that it can be like this, that, and that. The protagonists should work hard to save themselves. of.

Strange also cooperated with her to complain.

He bought a big bucket of popcorn and two glasses of orange juice, and shared the whole bucket with her.

The theater effect is that you eat a lot of popcorn without knowing it, and Alicia is no exception.They discussed her eating problem and said that although she stored a lot of calories and didn't need to eat every day, "eating" actually satisfied her taste buds in addition to satisfying her body's calorie consumption.She doesn't have pain neurons, but she still has a healthy taste system, so "eating" becomes a pure pleasure.

As a neurosurgeon with a successful career, Stephen Strange once lived the life of an upper-class person who lived in a luxury house, drove a luxury car, tasted fine wine, and collected famous watches. The guest of the restaurant, even though he voluntarily gave up that kind of good life now, he is still a person who knows how to enjoy life.

Taking Alicia to eat all over New York has become his current important plan.

There is no need to rush to learn magic overnight, there is plenty of time.

"Have you thought about what you want to do in the future?" After leaving the theater, the two walked slowly along the sidewalk.The theater is in Greenwich Village, just a 20-minute walk from the temple.

"How long in the future?"

"This year, next year, and the year after that."

"Learn magic."

"Aren't you going to high school anymore?"

She shook her head, "I don't want to go. Middle school life—" she sighed, "That's it, Tony——Tony said that I should learn to enjoy life and experience life. Maybe for him, 'protecting me' is also the experience I should have. one."

Strange lowered his head and grinned, "For him, he really might think so. You know how smart people think about problems, we think others are too stupid, I helped you solve the problem, how do you You don't need to thank me, but you still get angry with me?"

"Egoist!" She rolled her eyes bluntly.

"Okay, don't be angry, I have already scolded him severely. If you don't want to see him, of course you can. As a magician, I can make you invisible to him, and I can also make him invisible You, even if you walk across each other, you won't see each other."

"This magic is good, I want to learn it. Can I learn it? I should learn it."

"The king will teach you, but probably not now. You seem to be very interested in becoming a magician, which is a good thing. A person is too long-lived, with an almost infinite life, and it is not easy to be interested in anything, because there is always time Learned."

"Magic is very interesting, but also very profound. A mortal can't learn all the existing magic in a lifetime. I think, maybe I have a nearly infinite life, which is to be used to learn magic."

On this point, Strange basically agrees, "Indeed."

She became interested in something, which is a good thing, good for herself, good for Kama Taj, maybe good for this earth.The ancient master said that his life, his achievements, his car accident, all these made him a magician. He is a scientist and a magician. He is the middleman between ancient magic and modern science. Magic is the only one Only in the hands of someone with magical talent, tenacity and scientific literacy like him can he develop better.

Now, he doesn't seem to have to bear this responsibility alone.

Alicia left the Avengers headquarters almost without bringing anything, so buying clothes, shoes and socks for her became a big deal.

Master Wang didn't understand these things at all, so he was very worried; Strange didn't know how to buy things, so he had to ask his former colleague Christine Palmer.

Christine actually gave Strange a good laugh on the phone, then told him that when he took young girls shopping, he just had to follow along and pay the bill.You don't need any advice, and she won't refer to your aesthetic taste.

Strange was quite dissatisfied: Brother's aesthetics are very good, okay!

Just ask Alicia, and sure enough, as Christine said, she just wants him to pay the bill.

Well, that's fine too.

They picked a Monday to go shopping and spent tens of thousands of dollars to buy a lot of clothes, shoes and hats for her from inside to outside, from head to toe.

It's interesting to watch the beautiful girl's dress-up show up close. She is very good at buying clothes. She only buys in brand stores. She also has a good attitude when buying things. She doesn't even look at the price and ask the teller if it fits her. Packed, very refreshing and generous.

Strange suspects that she was spoiled by Tony, spending too much money to make pies.

She was very happy when she was wearing new clothes, and invited him to drink matcha-flavored milk tea with a lot of nata de coco, which was smooth and delicious.

He didn't drive, and after buying a bunch, he asked Alicia to open the multi-dimensional space passage in the fitting room, and threw the shopping paper bag back to her room in the temple.The portal is only used to pass shopping bags, so there must be no one else, but the teller is very strange, she obviously went in with a lot of shopping bags, how come there are not many when she comes out?

I met an early hospital colleague in a certain store and asked him whose child he was taking to buy clothes. Alicia was too young, and it was obviously the wrong age to say that it was a girlfriend, so Steve Strange had an extra cousin.

She complained less seriously: "My relatives are getting more and more, Pepper, Natasha, and now it's you."

Strange asked, "How is Miss Potts?"

"She... is fine, the virus in her body is being cleared, but it is no longer dangerous. Oh, she said, she broke up with Tony, and she is going to resign as CEO of Stark Industries." Pepper called her several times On the phone, the two talked to each other about their recent situation.She quite understands Pepper's initiative to break up. After all, what a mortal faces every day is life-threatening, and no matter how strong the heart is, there will be a day when it can't stand it. Alicia even wondered about Pepper. Actually persisted until now to break up.

"Where's Mr. Hogan?"

"Happy is not bad. He has woken up and is recovering." Happy is also very brave. He survived the two serious accidents. It can be said that he is a lucky guy.

Alicia will not feel tired, and the magician can almost ignore fatigue. After shopping for a whole day, I can finally go to dinner.

In the restaurant, I met Christine Palmer again.

"I met you, it was—Alicia, didn't you?" Christine remembered her.

"it's me."

This is a bit strange.It was Tony Stark who found her at the time. She and Bruce Banner gave Alicia an MRI examination. The whole world knows that Stark and Banner are TheAvengers, but how did Stephen have anything to do with them? ?This is really something new.

Christine wisely decided not to mention the MRI, but Strange didn't ask either.

"Want to sit with us?" Strange asked her proactively.

"No, I have an appointment with a friend." Christine gestured to a table not far away, and a woman immediately waved to them.

And smiled kindly at Alicia, "You must try his foie gras, there is no other place in New York that has such delicious foie gras—I hope you are not a vegetarian."

"I'm not a vegetarian." Alicia smiled. "Thank you for your recommendation. Stephen also said that his foie gras is delicious."

When ordering, Strange was very careful and asked her to order first. If she didn't know the ingredients of a dish, she would call the waiter to ask.The waiter answered her questions patiently, without feeling that she knew too little and asked too much.

"It's rare to eat very delicious food in Siberia. Although they try their best to make me eat better, it's too cold there, so I can only grow some vegetables in the greenhouse. The Pentagon is a little better, and I can order whatever I want. They can get everything." She finally ordered, closed the menu, and handed it to the waiter.

Strange soon realized that she was used to being taken care of by others, but she didn't know much about food. In this case, taking her to eat delicious food would give her a better enjoyment. It's not bad to think about it!

Before the dishes were on the table, there was a commotion in the kitchen at the back of the restaurant. A man in a chef's coat stumbled out of the kitchen, passed through the restaurant, and rushed towards the door.

All the guests in the restaurant watched this scene in surprise: a young woman with short black hair rushed out following the chef, holding a police-style gun in her hand, shouting "FBI! Stop!", of course , that person will definitely not stand still.

Alicia was very curious. She hadn't seen the police arrest the murderer yet.

Strange immediately took her hand, "Be careful." His voice was extremely low, barely audible amidst the screaming noise.

The man who looked like a chef knocked open the door of the restaurant and rushed out.

The black-haired woman was extremely fast, and the moment he rushed out of the gate, she jumped up and kicked him behind, kicking the man forward and throwing him to the ground.

The dark-haired woman then went over, twisted his arms behind his back, took out the handcuffs, then took out the walkie-talkie and called for backup.

Seeing that the man had been subdued, the guests in the restaurant calmed down a bit and stopped screaming.

The manager of the restaurant cautiously went out to inquire. The black-haired woman said a few words to the manager. The manager nodded with a bitter face and came back to comfort the guests. He gave each table two glasses of wine.

"It seems good to be an FBI agent, you can legally hold a gun." Alicia said with great interest.

"No, you don't want to be an FBI, you can't stand the rules and regulations of government agencies."

She was about to answer him when she heard a loud noise, and the glass window of the restaurant facing the street was shattered, and two people fell in.

Suddenly there was another burst of screaming and noise.

Alicia couldn't scream, but when she saw that one of the two was Tommy Keelan, she was shocked.

The author has something to say: *In the future, try to fix the update at 9:9 am, if it can't be updated at 9:[-] am, it will be updated at [-]:[-] pm.

* Multiverse theory is relatively mainstream now.

*Reviewed, probably because I will not add DC World, and I will not add those popular ones. There are too many people writing popular American dramas, so I want to focus on unpopular ones.As for the main Marvel without DC, the main DC will not bring Marvel. It is actually difficult to balance the two superhero worlds. One superhero system is rich enough.What I want to talk about is the story, not just a series of famous comic/movie characters.

*The author who doesn’t use Internet words is the author himself. I am an old man, and I don’t know how to use Internet hot words proficiently.I will read my own articles repeatedly, and I hope that my articles will be reread after 5 or 10 years, and there will be no reading barriers, and I will not feel a sense of discontinuity due to outdated Internet buzzwords.

* It is better to have a fixed style of writing, so I can write faster.

*As for whether the writing is good or not, it is a matter of opinion, but the daily update of 6000 is indeed not as detailed as the daily update of 2000.

*Well, among domestic mainstream writers, I don’t like Mo Yan, but I love Yu Hua the most.One day I can get a little closer to Yu Huada in terms of writing, and I will be satisfied.
