Wanjie Hotel: Iron Man is not allowed to charge

Chapter 187 Hello, Marvel Universe, I, Wen Ming, have arrived! (7K views, please vote)
"I can't be away from my universe for too long, so we need to hurry."

The Ancient One smiled and nodded, then looked at Pandora beside her. She narrowed her eyes and swept them over Pandora's body without saying anything. Instead, she walked towards the elevator: "Come on, I also want to see if I can become the captain of the Sorcerer Supreme."

Wen Ming was about to follow when he saw Pandora beside him and suddenly remembered her troubles: "Everyone, go back to your rooms and rest. Laura, stay here. Qinghou, you take the Sorcerer Supreme to get the Super Soldier Serum injected first. I'll settle Pandora in first."

Pandora's scent is a deadly poison for all men, even Loki was affected. Wen Ming couldn't imagine the chaos that would ensue if Pandora entered his hotel.

"Laura, try to see if you can get her..."

Wen Ming was about to speak when he suddenly felt that it wasn't appropriate. He looked up at Pandora and asked, "Do gods still exist in your universe?"

Pandora shook her head and said, "I don't know. I've been sealed inside the box all along, and I have no idea what's happening outside."

Wen Ming thought for a moment and said, "I need to confirm one thing first, which is whether you can return to your universe. But this will be somewhat dangerous, because your appearance may attract the attention of the gods. Are you willing to take this risk?"

"OK."

Pandora nodded obediently: "I also want to know if those vile gods still exist."

Wen Ming beckoned, and Yuan Ying immediately landed on his shoulder: "Boss, you still trust me the most."

“You grab Pandora and fly 100 meters away, then see if you can enter the Tomb Raider universe. Pandora, if you can go back, you can immediately recall me or this hotel, and then you can come back here again.”

After giving some instructions, Pandora was grabbed by Yuan Ying and lifted 100 meters away.

Wen Ming and Laura stared intently at each other's departing figures. A few seconds later, Yuan Ying returned looking disheveled: "Boss, did you deliberately trick me?"

"I'll have Qinghou buy you some good engine oil later."

Wen Ming comforted Yuan Ying for a while, then looked at the goddess-like woman: "It seems that you will have to stay in my hotel from now on."

"Am I stuck here?"

Pandora seemed a little lost, and her flustered appearance made Yuan Ying, a Transformer, feel sorry for her: "It's not that you can only stay here, but that you can go to any universe except yours."

Wen Ming had a bit of a headache, but still decided to treat everyone the same: "Laura, please take her to your presidential suite and give her a beginner's guide. I will prohibit men from approaching your suite."

"So, I won't be alone anymore."

Laura was naturally happy to have a helper. She pulled Pandora up the stairs to the 15th floor, while Wen Ming took the elevator to the second basement level.

As soon as Wen Ming entered the laboratory, he saw the Ancient One walk into the metal container.

"It hurts a little, just bear with it, it will pass soon."

Wen Ming thoughtfully offered a reminder, and the Ancient One nodded slightly before naturally lying down inside.

Having already performed the procedure many times, Qinghou and Rebecca could easily complete the enhancement work even without Dr. Erkins, so the injection process began quickly.

As Wen Ming expected, the Ancient One didn't utter a single sound from beginning to end.

The pain seemed to her like a mosquito bite.

Wen Ming reminded Qing Hou to go in and deliver the clothes to the Ancient One. However, when the Ancient One stepped out of the metal container, her robes were completely intact, which made Wen Ming exclaim, "Your robes are probably as strong as the mobile church."

"A mobile church?"

The Ancient One looked at Wen Ming with some curiosity. Wen Ming slapped his forehead and suddenly thought of a possibility: "I have a little girl here. She has 103,000 magic books in her mind and knows all the magic knowledge of the universe. Would you like to learn about her magic? That way you can improve your magic."
Or perhaps you could take her as your apprentice? I feel this little girl's magical talent is quite remarkable.

Upon hearing Wen Ming's words, the Ancient One also became interested: "Alright, where is she?"

The Ancient One's research into magic was absolutely unprecedented, but she was also very interested in magic from other universes.

Stones from other hills, can learn.

The Ancient One was never arrogant.

Wen Ming quickly told Qing Hou to call Index. Soon, Index, with a strawberry ice cream in her mouth, came bouncing over: "A powerful magician?"

"Yes, this is the Ancient One, Index, the most powerful and greatest Sorcerer Supreme in the Marvel Universe. I feel you could become her apprentice."

Wen Ming quickly introduced the Ancient One's background to Index, and then nudged her from behind.

Index was very clever. She immediately bowed obediently and greeted her, "Hello, Master. My name is Index."

The Ancient One looked at Index's still-smeared ice cream cake on her lips and smiled knowingly. She knew very well that Wen Ming wanted Index to become his disciple in order to deepen his connection with the metaverse, and she was happy to have such a future possibility. So she helped Index up with both hands: "My requirements are very strict. I don't know if you can stick to them?"

"Of course I can."

Index quickly swallowed the ice cream cake in her mouth, nodding her head rapidly.

The Ancient One smiled, then pulled a spellbook from thin air and handed it to Index: "You should study my basic magical theories first. I'll come back in a few days to check on you."

"Thank you, Master."

Index took it with both hands, her eyes crinkling with delight: "This is my 13,001st magic book."

Upon seeing the spellbook, Wen Ming remembered something. He patted Qing Hou, who immediately transformed into a stream of data and disappeared from the laboratory. A moment later, she ran back in, holding a spellbook in her hand.

"Sorcerer Supreme, this is a spellbook given to me by a demon lord named Lilith from the Supernatural universe. Could you please take a look at it?"

When the Ancient One heard that it was the Demon King's spellbook, she immediately became interested. She picked up the spellbook and began to flip through it page by page. Index immediately stood on tiptoe and said, "The 13,002nd spellbook."

Both were powerful magicians with fast reading speeds, and in just a few minutes, they had finished reading the thick book of spells.

"This spellbook is very interesting. It contains a lot of magic that has given me a lot of inspiration. It seems that there are many powerful mages in other universes."

The Ancient One gave a thumbs-up, then cautioned, "This spellbook requires the sorcerer to borrow its power to cast spells, similar to how I draw energy from the Dark Dimension. You..."

"The mages here have all been enhanced and gained powerful mental strength, so they can cast these spells without borrowing power from Lilith."

Wen Ming's explanation pleased the Ancient One: "You are very cautious, but you should be wary of someone like me who, in the end, chooses to make a deal with Lilith for power."

Wen Ming's heart skipped a beat, and he realized that Lilith's deeper scheme was behind this.

She might not be afraid at all of knowing the back door to this book of spells, because she firmly believes that someone will succumb to temptation and make a pact with her, this devil.

Wen Ming could almost guess without thinking that someone as wicked as Lex would definitely go down this path.

As expected, a demon king who has lived for so long is not someone that ordinary people can handle.

But what good is it if you're so great?

I have the Supreme Master!
Wenming expressed his gratitude to the Ancient One and then escorted her to the rooftop: "I will get Malena and Carter to complete their storylines as soon as possible, so that you, the Sorcerer Supreme, can determine whether you can be enhanced."

Although each instance of a related character being strengthened is small, the cumulative effect should eventually be helpful to you.

"Thank you."

Master Gu Yi smiled and nodded: "You are much kinder than Wen Fugui."

"So, did my third uncle go to the Marvel universe?"

Wen Ming took the opportunity to ask the question he had just had, and the Ancient One nodded with a smile: "Yes, he also helped me fight off Dormammu."

"They repelled Dormammu? Wasn't that in 1666?"

Wen Ming looked at the Ancient One in surprise. The Ancient One shook her head and said, "It wasn't that time, but later, about 100 years ago. Dormammu's invasion wasn't just once."

Wen understood clearly.

I then realized that this timeframe seemed to coincide with the founding of the Iron Hotel.

This means that, either at the beginning of the hotel's establishment or even before the hotel was established, the Third Uncle was able to go to other universes?
and many more.

"Can I go to your universe too?"

Wen Ming suddenly realized a very important rule.

The Ancient One thought for a moment and said, "It should be possible. If Wen Fugui can go, you can definitely go too."

The words of the Ancient One completely excited Wen Ming.

Wen Ming had always dreamed of entering the universe of the time travelers and seeing the scenery there, but he never dared to set off rashly because he always had a concern.

"But I used ordinary people for experiments before, and when ordinary people went there, they were hunted down by the will of the universe."

Wen Ming's words left the Ancient One somewhat unsure, but she smiled and said, "I'll take you there. If there really are pursuers, I'm confident I can bring you back."

Upon hearing Gu Yi's words, Wen Ming's heart immediately fluttered. If it were anyone else who invited him, Wen Ming would definitely not go.

But this is the Ancient One.

She was able to cross dimensions and spaces directly to the metaverse, so Loki didn't need to bring her here at all.

Wen Ming believed that she could teleport him back to the metaverse directly.

Can my long-held wish really come true?

Thinking of this, Wen Ming couldn't sit still any longer: "Qinghou, tell everyone to prepare for any contingencies. You stay home and keep watch. If any other time travelers come while I'm not here, you'll handle it."

Don't tell anyone where I went yet. I'll be back soon, barring any unforeseen circumstances.

"Okay, boss."

While Qinghou verbally agreed, her mind was already connected to Haihou, frantically calculating whether Wenming's trip would be safe. When she received a 79% probability that he would be alright, she breathed a slight sigh of relief.

Wen Ming wasn't unprepared. He took out his Destroyer mech, put it on, and then grabbed the Ancient One's hand.

Thinking it wasn't safe, he looked at the stone sculpture of the white tiger again, sent a thought to it, and soon got a result that surprised and delighted him.

He gave a happy smile: "Let's go."

With a flick of her hand, the Ancient One created a portal that sparked with fire, and Wen Ming could clearly see that the other side was the secret realm of Kamar-Taj from the movie.

"Marvel, here I come."

Wen Ming took a step forward, and the next second, he felt a sudden bright light before his eyes.

In the blink of an eye, night turned into day, and Wen Ming finally experienced the shock that the time travelers felt when they first arrived at the Iron Hotel.

"Om-"

A dozen monks were cultivating in the secret realm, and one spatial door after another was opening or half-opening. Watching the scene that seemed to be straight out of a movie, Wen Ming felt goosebumps rising all over his body.

This is the real Marvel Universe!

"Master, who is this gentleman?"

Just as Wen Ming was looking around, a man with a braid walked up to the two of them.

"This is Wen Ming, the Lord of the Metaverse."

The Ancient One introduced Wen Ming to him: "This is my apprentice, Kaecilius."

Wen Ming looked at the man in front of him in surprise. This was Kaecilius? The man who killed the Ancient One?
Wen Ming put away the Destroyer mech and politely greeted the other party: "Hello, I am Wen Ming."

"Hello, I am Casillas."

Casillas looked at Wen Ming with a hint of suspicion in his eyes, seemingly very doubtful that the other party was a cosmic ruler.

Wen Ming hadn't expected the Ancient One to introduce him like that, but he didn't deny it. Instead, he looked up at the sky and said, "I didn't feel any rejection from the will of the universe, and it seems like I can go back at any time."

"It seems you have just as many secrets as Wen Fugui."

The Ancient One smiled slightly: "You helped me just now, so let me treat you to a cup of tea. Kaecilius, go and get my best tea leaves."

"Ok."

Upon hearing that the Ancient One was going to offer Wen Ming some of her treasured tea, Kaecilius's curiosity about Wen Ming intensified.

Seeing Kaecilius leave, Wen Ming looked at the Ancient One, the meaning in his eyes quite clear.

The Ancient One shook his head slightly: "I cannot stop him from ultimately falling into depravity. He pursued not only immortality, but also the resurrection of his wife and children. He could not accept this outcome."

"It seems you need an excellent psychologist. Coincidentally, my metaverse offers this service: $1000 per session, gold payment. How about it?"

Wen Ming enthusiastically recommended his psychologist, Harley Quinn, but the Ancient One shook her head, saying, "How come your personality is so different from Wen Fugui's? Besides, I don't have any gold."

“I feel that everyone is worth saving. How will you know if you don’t try? I can put you on credit, and you can be hired later to fight Darkseid in the DC Universe next door.”

Wen Ming was enthusiastically conducting business in Kamar-Taj, while the Ancient One kept shaking her head: "I can't leave this universe at will."

"It's alright, your future disciple, Strange, can pay the bill, as can your new disciple, Index."

Wen Ming's enthusiastic sales pitch finally broke the Ancient One's resistance: "Alright, bring her over later."

"YES."

Wen Ming's eyes darted around, and he thought of another person: "Your problem disciple isn't just one person, there's also Mo Du."

Kaecilius, one of the Ancient One's two disciples, betrayed her with his disciples because he longed for the power of the Dark Dimension. In the end, he was absorbed by Dormammu and became a part of Dormammu's life.

Mordo was always taught by the Ancient One to follow nature and its laws, but when he learned that the Ancient One's immortality was the result of her absorbing energy from the Dark Dimension, his entire worldview collapsed, and he became corrupted.

The Easter egg involving Mordo was expected to appear in "Doctor Strange 2," but "Doctor Strange 2" turned into "Wanda's Search for Her Family," which is one of the main reasons for the film's poor box office and critical reception.

When the Ancient One heard Mordo's name, she fell silent. She led Wen Ming to the reception room, where the two sat facing each other. Kaecilius served tea and then withdrew.

But he didn't go far; instead, he quietly hid outside.

"Perhaps I am not a qualified master."

The Ancient One sighed, "I can teach them magic, but I can't teach them how to be human." "There are still more than ten years; many things can be changed."

You wouldn't want such a talented disciple to ultimately perish at Dormammu's hands, would you?

Wen Ming's positive attitude did not cause much of a stir in the Ancient One. She knew too much and saw too far ahead, so she became numb to these things.

Wen Ming knew that words were less effective than actions, so he didn't insist further and instead asked, "Are you sure you can't give me the Time Stone?"

"Don't go too far."

The Ancient One glared at Wen Ming: "Giving you the Space Stone is already my biggest concession."

Wen Ming chuckled and said, "Are you worried that your future apprentice Strange won't be able to deal with Dormammu in the end? Why don't you just use his techniques against Dormammu?"

"That was his destiny."

The Ancient One shook his head and said, "You will need to help him in that future battle."

"Huh? I hadn't remembered until you mentioned it."

Wen Ming suddenly remembered that this universe was not the main universe, but the 838 universe: "Your future disciple will eventually turn evil. Tsk, you really don't know how to teach disciples."

The Ancient One frowned and said, "That's because he used the dark magic from the Dark Book without authorization in order to defeat Thanos."

This behavior caused a cosmic collision, triggering catastrophic consequences. This abuse of power gradually corrupted him with the evil forces within the book, making his behavior extreme and dangerous.

Wen Ming shrugged: "So you're just going to sit idly by? That's the destruction of life in an entire universe! Even if you're following the laws of nature, this is still going too far."

Moreover, none of your three disciples met a good end. You are truly inferior to the Ancient One of the main universe.

The Ancient One looked at Wen Ming with a strange expression: "How do you know that the Ancient One in the main universe is not me?" (Note 1)

"Uh?"

Wen Ming looked at the Ancient One in surprise. He never expected that the Ancient One from the multiverse was the same person.

Isn’t this too fierce?

Wen Ming immediately realized that this was very likely, which was why the Ancient One was so calm. She had seen countless futures in various universes, so she was more willing to let things take their course.

"If there is another me in the main universe, when you obtain the Cosmic Cube, that other me will come out to stop you."

The words of the Ancient One made Wen Ming truly understand what it meant to be the Supreme Master.

The future Strange is no match for the Ancient One.

This made Wen Ming understand even more that she allowed her disciples to kill him in every universe in order to pursue a carefree life.

"Alright, I'll try my best to help him out then. I've been out for a long time and need to go back. I can come and have tea with you next time."

Wen Ming stood up with satisfaction. The main reason he came to the Marvel Universe this time was to confirm whether he would be hunted down by the world's will.

It seems that the universe is still quite friendly.

After I go back and reassure my employees, I can start planning what to do next time I come back.

And other universes.

The thought of being able to travel to different universes made Wen Ming tremble with excitement.

I'm going to take the divine cat and Gugu to see the Cat Immortal.

I want to visit the Bat Cave, and I want to sit in the real Continental Hotel.

I'm going to find a pure, fun universe to completely relax!
Wen Ming happily waved goodbye to the Ancient One, who nodded slightly, then closed her eyes and began to meditate.

Meanwhile, outside the reception room, Casillas was filled with shock and disbelief.

The conversation he had just had an almost revolutionary impact on him.

Will I eventually die at Dormammu's hands?
The future Sorcerer Supreme is not me, but a man named Strange?
Is he able to deal with Dormammu?

But even someone as powerful as him could eventually turn to the dark side?
Does this world have a multiverse?
Is Master Gu Yi the only being in the multiverse?
Casillas felt his brain was starting to malfunction.

what should I do?
How can I escape my inevitable death? I haven't brought my wife and children back to life yet!
……

With a single thought, Wen Ming returned to the rooftop of the Iron Hotel. Qing Hou immediately noticed his return and rushed to his side with great joy: "How are you, boss? Have you been chased?"

"No, it seems that the world's will has not noticed me at all, or rather, has no intention of hunting me down."

Wen Ming was also beaming with excitement: "I feel like I can go to other universes anytime!"

Qinghou jumped up and down excitedly: "The boss can finally go on a trip and relax!"

Wen Ming grinned from ear to ear as he stepped into the house: "How is Pandora?"

“She had already looked through the PPT. She didn’t know any related movies or TV shows, so I showed her some information about her legend.”

Qinghou quickly said, "Her biggest problem is her fragrance, and secondly her charm. She's even more alluring than Malena. Even without that fragrance, she could absolutely drive men crazy. But we can't just keep her in Laura's suite and never let her out, can we?"

Wen Ming was also a bit troubled: "Did you give them the Krypton Glasses?"

"I've already given it to her, but her figure can't be hidden, her voice can't be concealed, and then there's the most troublesome thing: her fragrance."

"Keep it on for now."

Wen Ming rubbed his temples and thought for a long time before finally coming up with a solution: "Go and find Index. Come to my office. I need to make a spirit costume."

"Spiritual outfit?"

Upon hearing this, Qinghou's eyes lit up, and she looked at Wenming with a grin: "So, boss, you already knew magic, didn't you?"

"Ah."

Wen Ming knew he couldn't hide it from his precious darling, so he admitted it directly: "When you guys were getting stronger, I also worked very hard."

"Really? I've never seen you practice magic before."

Qinghou looked at Wenming with a puzzled expression. Wenming coughed lightly and said, "Go quickly and solve Pandora's problem as soon as possible. It's almost dawn."

I can't exactly tell her that I was working on it all in bed.

"okay."

Qinghou knew that Wenming wouldn't tell her what he didn't want to say, so she didn't insist and instead disappeared in a stream of light.

Soon, Index arrived at Wen Ming's office: "Wen Ming, you want to make a spirit suit?"

“Yes, I want to make a spirit garment that can absorb the fragrance of Pandora, so I need to borrow the grimoire in your mind.”

Wen Ming's words made Index's eyes light up. Without thinking, she threw herself into Wen Ming's arms: "Come and copy it, you haven't copied it in so long... Ah... Good, that feels good."

The moment Index touched Wen Ming, she turned into soft noodles; she felt as if her whole body was melting into water.

Wen Ming was also extremely upset, but he forced himself to calm down: "Tell me which books in your mind are about making spirit armor."

"Ah, what? Spirit dresses? Oh, okay, there are so many, hundreds of them, which one do you want to read?"

Index was dizzy and didn't even know what she was saying.

So comfortable.

"Wen Ming."

"Ok?"

"I've prepared everything for you. You can look through it yourself. I'm going to get some sleep. I'm not going back tonight."

Index's eyes focused and then unfocused, then focused again. Soon her face was flushed and she closed her eyes tightly. She held Wenming's hand tightly and soon fell into a daze.

Suppressing the evil in his heart, Wen Ming quickly began copying and pasting those magical books about crafting spirit armor.

However, with each copy, the evil in Wen Ming's heart grew stronger, and it took him a long time to suppress it so that he could concentrate on copying the next book.

Thinking of Pandora, Wen Ming had to suppress his pain and continue copying one book after another.

The problem is, it's too painful.

This is simply the most exhilarating yet cruelest form of torture in the world.

Wen Ming's hands clenched and unclenched repeatedly, and his willpower grew rapidly in this struggle against evil.

……

"Hi, Charon."

"Hi, Flora."

Charon looked up to greet Flora, then smiled and said, "The boss stayed up late again last night, so he probably won't be able to get up this morning."

"Then let him get a good night's sleep."

Flora frowned when she heard that Wen Ming had stayed up all night again, but Charon's tip made her happy. She took a box out of her bag: "This is a little gift I prepared for you to thank you for your thoughtful service every time."

"It's my pleasure."

Charon took the box and opened it. Inside was a very beautiful fountain pen, which looked quite valuable.

"By the way, the boss has canceled all appointments for the weekend."

Flora smiled happily, her anticipation for the weekend date growing stronger.

This time, surely no annoying person will cause trouble.

The customer service staff at the front desk also wore warm smiles.

This time, the boss will definitely make it to base.

……

It was 10:00 AM in the master bedroom on the 16th floor.

Wen Ming lay exhausted on the sofa, while Index lay on the bed with a rosy complexion; both were fast asleep.

One is tired, and the other is tired.

The battle that night exhausted Wen Ming of all his mental and physical strength; he felt it was even more tiring than fighting Thanos.

At this moment, all he wanted to do was lie down and get a good night's sleep.

Unless, of course, a beautiful secretary comes to give me a full-body massage.

I want the kind that combines essential oils and a waterbed!

……

Outside the bedroom, Laura was pacing back and forth.

"Lola, go tell Earl that the boss isn't seeing any customers this morning; he stayed up all night yesterday."

Ninth Brother yawned, looking like he hadn't woken up yet.

Laura looked at her ninth brother with a puzzled expression: "What's wrong with you? You've only just started work and you look like you haven't slept yet. You can't be... I'm telling you, you absolutely cannot touch that thing, absolutely, absolutely cannot touch it!"

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Ninth Brother rubbed his head: "I just came back from a war."

"What? War? You're just bragging again."

Laura poked Ninth Brother's head with her finger: "Kids shouldn't brag, or the boss won't like you."

"Okay, I know. Aren't you going on a business trip? Why aren't you getting ready yet?"

"Huh? How do you know?"

Laura looked at Ninth Brother with some surprise. Ninth Brother smiled and said, "Not only did I know you were going on a business trip, but I also knew that the boss's personal secretary had arrived."

"Personal secretary?"

Laura was surprised when she saw Maria bring a plain-looking but voluptuous woman to them.
