The Martial God of the Marvel World

Chapter 460 It's destined to be you!
"What the hell?"

Zhan Liu was immediately shocked when he heard what the Mage King said.

Although he had only seen Ancient One once before, and he was a dead body, for some reason, Zhan Liu's heart was filled with inexplicable fear of Ancient One.

"No, no, no... there must be some misunderstanding!"

Zhan Liu shook his head repeatedly, "I don't even know magic, how can I be a supreme magician?"

"You can learn magic if you don't know it!" The Mage King's attitude was very enthusiastic now, "I can teach you!"

With such a powerful man as the Sorcerer Supreme, Kamar-Taj will naturally be impregnable, and there is no need to worry about the safety of the earth.

"I won't learn this! I don't have a big backer who can let me cheat and not pay my debts."

Thinking of those wizards whose souls were taken away by the devil, the source of magic power, after death, Zhan Liu threw the Eye of Agamotto away as if it was burning.

"Since Ancient One said that whoever holds this thing will be the Sorcerer Supreme, then you will be the Sorcerer Supreme."

The Mage King subconsciously reached out to grab it. However, when he was about to grab the Eye of Agamotto, suddenly a small-scale time reversal occurred.

The Eye of Agamotto that was thrown out returned to Zhan Liu's hands the same way it was thrown out.

This time, both of them were stunned, staring at the magic weapon in Zhan Liu's hand.

Zhan Liu didn't believe it and lost it again. As a result, time went back again and the Eye of Agamotto returned to Zhan Liu's hands again.

Originally, the Wizard King still had some doubts about what Ancient One had said, but after experiencing this, he was completely relieved.

"Haha... no need to refuse anymore. Look, even this artifact chose you!" The Mage King persuaded Zhan Liu happily, "Didn't you say before that you and this artifact are destined to be together?"

"I was just talking nonsense! It doesn't count!" Zhan Liu now felt that he was not only rude with his hands, but also with his mouth.

As he was speaking, suddenly a cloak flew out from behind the Wizard King and hung behind Zhan Liu. It was handsome and cool, and it was exactly the same cloak worn by Doctor Strange.

Zhan Liu didn't want to become the second Doctor Strange, so he reached out to pull it down, but he couldn't pull it down no matter how hard he tried.

"Fuck! You're blaming me for this!" Zhan Liu was furious.

"The magicians' artifacts are all spirits and will choose their masters autonomously."

The Mage King watched with a smile and continued to persuade:

"Why are you resisting so much?"

"The Supreme Mage can be a well-known figure in the entire universe, and in principle can command all mages to obey his orders."

Zhan Liu struggled for a long time but was unable to get rid of the identity of the Supreme Mage. He had no choice but to stop temporarily and think of a solution later.

Seeing that Zhan Liu seemed to have accepted his fate, the Mage King bowed with a smile and made an invitation.

"Respected Supreme Sorcerer, let me show you around Kamar-Taj. You will live here for a long time. Then we will start learning magic..."

"No! Never!" Zhan Liu interrupted the Mage King before he could finish.

Zhan Liu raised his hands and crossed them in front of him, "I don't want to be a Supreme Mage!"

"I would rather learn technology than learn those outdated magics!"

"What era is this now? The Age of Magic has long since fallen. There is no future for learning magic!"

Despite the Mage King's attempts to keep him, Zhan Liu insisted on leaving.

Looking at Zhan Liu's receding back, the Mage King put his hands to his mouth and shouted loudly:

"Don't refuse anymore. You are destined to be the next Supreme Sorcerer!"

Zhan Liu flew forward without saying a word. Suddenly, he seemed to realize something. He looked up and saw a missile flying towards him at more than ten times the speed of sound in the distant sky.

Although it was far away, Zhan Liu saw the symbol representing a nuclear bomb on the missile at a glance.

Sure enough, faced with a situation where they were powerless, those politicians resorted to their usual solution - dropping nuclear bombs!

If one nuclear bomb can't solve the problem, then drop two. With their limited way of thinking, they don't believe there is a problem that can't be solved by nuclear bombs.

In New York today, although the dark magic has been taken back, the entire city is still not calm.

Those people whose dark desires were aroused by the dark magic were still venting their desires like wild beasts.

In fact, after being freed from the stimulation of dark magic, as long as they wait for an hour or so, until their desires are vented and their emotions have stabilized, they will calm down on their own and return to their original sanctimonious appearance.

However, the rulers far away in Washington knew nothing of this.

They only saw through space satellites that the ground had completely collapsed and was in complete chaos.

After all attempts to contact them failed, they were horrified to find that all existing government systems had collapsed and the entire city was completely disconnected.

New York fell, the streets were full of crazy people, gunfights were everywhere, explosions were heard one after another, and flames burned in every corner of the city... The builders of this city were destroying it wantonly.

After learning that the current SHIELD has no way to deal with this attack, and that various forces are unwilling to contribute their strength for free, the think tank elites easily came to the conclusion that New York is finished and there is no hope!
According to their understanding of these big men, they might be able to save New York after the transaction price is negotiated, but that would take at least ten days or half a month. After such a long time, the corpses of New Yorkers would have become stinking.

Therefore, instead of wasting time and energy on rescue operations, it is better to abandon New York completely and take the opportunity to kill the enemy that caused all this, so as to avoid causing trouble and involving the surrounding cities.

So, after a round of mutual blame-shifting, some unlucky scapegoat had to step forward and give the order to launch a nuclear bomb at New York.

Because the dark magic has disappeared, the target of this nuclear bomb launch is very clear, which is the New York temple that appeared out of nowhere.

Zhan Liu took a glance and identified the direction of the nuclear bomb launch. He sneered and shook his head, ignoring it.

Nuclear bombs are powerful, but they only work if they can hit people. Otherwise, they are just large firecrackers and are completely useless.

Sure enough, after seeing the nuclear bomb, the Mage King frowned, stretched out his hand and drew a circle, and then the nuclear bomb plunged into the space gate that suddenly appeared in front of him, and no one knew where it went.

It was because the Mage King had a good temper that he just threw the nuclear bomb away. If it were someone with a bad temper, he might have sent the nuclear bomb to Washington.

The sudden disappearance of the nuclear bomb immediately threw the men in Washington into disarray. They hurriedly used satellite positioning to inquire about the location of the nuclear bomb, only to discover that the nuclear bomb had inexplicably appeared in outer space.

Although they could still retrieve the nuclear bomb by remote control, or simply launch another one, the problem was that if this attack was ineffective, would the next attack be effective? Then, they discovered that the building had disappeared in plain sight.

Without Casillas' interference, it would be very easy to rebuild the magic circle and hide the New York Temple.

But this series of unknown situations made everyone panic.

What humans fear most is the unknown, so unreasonable things like magic attract humans to pursue them endlessly.

After realizing that force might not be effective, they finally turned into pacifists again and began to consider negotiation.

They had already seen Zhan Liu flying in the sky before, but compared to the entire city, Zhan Liu was not worthy of their attention. It didn't matter whether he was dead or alive. They could just treat him as a sacrificial offering for New York.

However, if they wanted to negotiate now, they needed an envoy. It would definitely be too late to send someone from Washington. Zhan Liu had dealt with those people before and was close to them, so he was the right person.

So, Zhan Liu had just returned to the martial arts gym, and before he had explained everything to Natalia, a phone call came in.

"Mr. Zhan, I'm so glad that you're okay!" Director Pierce was very enthusiastic when he spoke, and gave a lot of condolences, as if he cared about Zhan Liu very much.

As Zhan Liu became stronger, his style of doing things also gradually became tougher. He simply didn't believe that a Hydra leader would be so kind as to comfort him, so he simply interrupted his nonsense.

"Okay, just say what you want to say, don't beat around the bush, I'm tired of this!"

"We want to get some information from Mr. Zhan about the people in that building. Of course, we won't ask you for nothing. We will pay you enough for the consultation and we will definitely satisfy you, Mr. Zhan."

Zhan Liu tilted his head and thought for a moment, and felt that there was nothing he couldn't say, so he didn't hide anything and said directly:
"That is the New York Temple, where the mages gather..."

After Zhan Liu finished explaining the general situation, Director Pierce on the other end of the phone had eyes shining with excitement.

No matter which branch of Hydra, they are all pursuing powerful supernatural powers, but unfortunately, all the power systems they have discovered are basically unreplicable.

Whether it is super soldier serum, mutant genes, Inhumans, strange supernatural items... the final creation of a super soldier depends on luck and cannot be mass-produced at all.

But the magician system is obviously different. Masters and apprentices pass on their knowledge, learn and train together, make magic items, study magic circles, and even hide their own existence and build a base in another dimension...

This is simply an organization tailor-made for Hydra members!
As for the responsibility to protect the earth...haha, doesn't SHIELD also protect the earth?

When the Hydra rules the world, it will naturally protect its own pastures.

"We didn't see this wizard organization protecting the Earth. Instead, we saw the entire New York City fall into destruction because of their mistakes in their work!"

Director Pierce pretended to be angry and started digging a hole.

"We hope Mr. Zhan can pass on a message to the people of this organization. Their organization must come out into the open!"

"We can provide them with free teaching venues, help them expand their influence, better promote the spread of magic in the world, and help them recruit more high-quality students..."

Director Pierce threw out a bunch of conditions that seemed very generous, but in the end he changed the subject and his true intentions were revealed.

"But they must accept the supervision of the Security Council. We will not interfere in their daily affairs, but we will send a special envoy to Kamar-Taj to be responsible for communication between the two sides."

His plan was quite good, throwing out a lot of baits that looked like good fish, but they all contained hooks.

Once you come out into the open, you're easy to be monitored and targeted.

Promoting magic will inevitably lead to the disclosure of its secrets.

As for recruiting high-quality students, it is a great opportunity to plant undercover agents.

As for the conditions that follow, it doesn't matter if they are not accepted. Anyway, as long as any one of the above conditions is accepted by the wizards, Hydra will be able to follow the clues and achieve its goal.

But if it really succeeds, that would of course be better, saving time and making the penetration more efficient.

No matter what, Hydra will make huge profits!

That's how it should have been.

But Zhan Liu rejected them all.

"What good things are you thinking about?"

"You're the only ones who want to get involved in Kamar-Taj?"

"Kama-Taj will not agree to any conditions, so you should just give up on this idea!"

"Oh, by the way, the dark magic has been sucked away. Those people in New York won't be crazy for long."

"You should think about it first. When they wake up and find that they were almost killed by a nuclear bomb, what will be their reaction?"

"Hiss..." As expected, after hearing this, Director Pierce took a deep breath and asked, "Can those people in New York return to normal?"

"Of course, they are just stimulated by the dark magic. After the dark magic disappears, they will naturally return to normal slowly." Zhan Liu said gloatingly.

There was an immediate burst of chaotic noise from the other end of the phone. I didn't know what the person on the other end was busy with. After a moment, Director Pierce's voice sounded again.

"Mr. Zhan, thank you very much for this intelligence. You will definitely be satisfied with our reward."

After expressing his gratitude, Director Pierce brought the topic back to the topic.

"Mr. Zhan, I still need you to help pass on a message to the mages."

"Whether they will agree or not, we have to try it to know."

"Besides, no matter what the mages choose, it has nothing to do with you, right?"

He paused for a moment, then continued to tempt, "If Mr. Zhan can convince those mages to accept our conditions, then we will definitely reward them handsomely."

"Haha..." Zhan Liu smiled coldly, "Who said it has nothing to do with me?"

"I'm not afraid to tell you that I just accidentally killed their Supreme Sorcerer. Now they are relying on me and insist that I become their Supreme Sorcerer."

"I am here to inform you in the name of the current Supreme Mage that I do not agree to any of your conditions!"
