He's in Marvel, working behind the scenes.

Daredevil instinctively turned around and swung his short stick.

"boom!"

The purple clay teapot was smashed with a stick, but the boiling water poured all over him, scalding him so much that he instinctively dropped the stick and jumped around, patting the boiling water off his body.

"Hey, hey."

A withered, skeletal hand patted him on the shoulder.

Daredevil turned around.

"Snapped!"

Guo Haihuang slapped him across the face, knocking him to the ground and rendering him unconscious.

Guo Haihuang stood with his hands behind his back, looking down at the unconscious Daredevil, and said calmly, "I'm telling you, it's one thing to show up uninvited, but to actually dare to hit someone is just too arrogant!"

"Master Guo, he might have some mental problems."

Luke stepped forward and explained, "Although we had a little conflict before, he wasn't like this before, something must have happened."

Is that so?

Guo Haihuang frowned. "If that's the case, we do need to do a thorough check, but it's probably not your or my turn to do it."

As soon as he finished speaking, a group of men in suits walked in.

"Master Guo, we are S.H.I.E.L.D."

After showing his identification to Guo Haihuang, the leader said, "Leave Daredevil's problem to us."

Guo Haihuang glanced at one of his disciples, then nodded. "Yes, take him away!"

"I'm sorry to have troubled you."

……

When Daredevil woke up, he found himself in a small, dark room.

He sat up abruptly, memories of last night resurfacing.

He infiltrated Midtown, only to be caught red-handed by the Hand's Five Fingers.

When she woke up, Dio asked her if she wanted to become his subordinate.

After he refused, something was implanted in his brain. Immediately afterwards, he felt like a different person.

Disregarding the justice he had previously upheld, he became a staunch supporter of Dior.

Was I brainwashed and controlled?

Daredevil shook his head as he recalled Erica's condition.

Erica has forgotten the past, while I still remember it; the two are different.

"how do you feel?"

Just then, a sound came from outside the door.

Daredevil was startled and immediately perked up his ears to listen, as a 3D image of the person from the future appeared in his mind.

He was a Black man wearing a one-eyed eyepatch.

“I’m Nick Fury, director of S.H.I.E.L.D. The implant in your brain has been removed. So, tell me, what’s the deal with that Dio?”

Chapter 169 Hawke, You're Too Dangerous

Daredevil knew of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s existence and had even been in contact with them.

He only knew that S.H.I.E.L.D. was an agency established by the Global Security Council to handle paranormal events, but he didn't know much about the specifics.

Hearing Fury's self-introduction, he was slightly surprised.

In his eyes, he was just a vigilante cracking down on ordinary criminals, nothing special at all.

Unexpectedly, the director of S.H.I.E.L.D. came to receive him.

In other words, what happened to him was so important that even the director of S.H.I.E.L.D. needed to take it seriously.

“When we were doing your physical exam, we scanned and found granulation tissue in your brain. We eventually removed it using laser microsurgery…” At this point, Fred paused and continued, “That thing was like it had its own consciousness. The slightest movement would damage your brain. It was just like a vampire’s cells. It took us a lot of effort to remove it safely.”

"vampire?"

Daredevil paused, then pondered, "Dio once said that he had just woken up after sleeping for over a hundred years. So vampires really do exist in this world?"

"The world is very big."

Fury said, "These creatures lurking in the shadows of human society are now stirring. So, tell me everything you know."

……

The Himalayas are bitterly cold.

Hill and Hawke stood atop a mountain, gazing into the distance.

"Well, there are places like this in the world, so there are natural places too!"

Hawke couldn't help but sigh.

Just then, a cold wind blew out.

Even though he was wearing a fur coat, Hawke couldn't help but shiver.

Wiping its snot, it complained, "Why did you send me to this freezing place?"

"Try it out."

Hill looked around.

Why try your luck?

"Let's see if we can find Kamar-Taj, or rather, see if Kamar-Taj will be interested in you," Hill said truthfully.

She obeyed Fury's orders and led a group to the vicinity of the Himalayas to search for the Supreme Master.

But unsurprisingly, they couldn't find it.

They know nothing about magic or anything like that, so they wouldn't be able to find any clues that could lead to Kamar-Taj.

That's when I thought of Hawke.

Hawke comes from Purgatory and is classified as a magical creature, so perhaps he can sense Kamar-Taj, which is also a magical sanctuary.

But it's a pity.

Judging from Hawke's reaction, he didn't seem to sense anything.

"Does anyone really live in this freezing, snowy place?" Hawke couldn't help but wonder.

"Maybe yes, maybe no, who knows?"

"No, even mages don't like living in places that are freezing cold or scorching hot."

"This is not good..."

Halfway through their conversation, Hawke and Hill seemed to realize something and turned around abruptly... A bald woman with an ethereal air, dressed in a beige monk's robe, came into view.

"what!"

Hawke was startled, but was quickly calmed by the other person's reassuring smile and boldly asked, "Who are you?"

"I am the Sorcerer Supreme you are looking for. You can call me Ancient One," Ancient One said with a gentle smile.

"This……"

Hawke turned to Hill and asked, "Did we just get lucky and run into them?"

"Ok!"

Hill nodded, looked at the Ancient One, and said, "Ancient One, I am..."

"People from S.H.I.E.L.D."

The Ancient One smiled and spoke Hill's mind in advance, saying, "I know who you are, what S.H.I.E.L.D. is, and I know why you're here. Although sorcerers live deep in the mountains, they are not isolated from the world. In fact, many people in Kamar-Taj use high-tech equipment, which is very convenient."

“That’s great. I’ve always been worried that monks are a group of scholars who are isolated from the world and that there might be communication barriers.”

Hill said thankfully.

Gu Yi gently shook her head. "No, what you're worried about is not being able to find us."

Hill's expression stiffened for a moment, then he smiled again. "We do have concerns about that, after all, we know nothing about it."

"If you know nothing, don't step in. Magic isn't such a useful thing."

"..."

Hill fell silent.

Although the Ancient One had a smiling face that gave people a sense of peace and harmony, she felt that the other party was targeting her at every turn.

No, it's not directed at me personally.

Rather, it was about the purpose of their trip.

Hill was certain that he had never known any mages before, nor could he have offended any mages, so naturally he wouldn't be targeted on their first meeting.

(It seems our approach displeased the other party.)

Hill pondered to himself, but a serious expression remained on his face. "Most things in this world involve risks, but often, even knowing the risks, we have no choice but to take advantage of them."

"I know."

The Ancient One stared at her and said, "So you can go back now."

"Ancient One, we..."

“You have your responsibilities, and I have mine. I don’t have time to meddle in your affairs.”

"Wait, I..."

Hill seemed to have anticipated something and wanted to make a final defense.

But the Ancient One didn't give her a chance.
