[Zhongyingmei] Official Mascot

Chapter 24

Peter started the black SUV and drove smoothly on the road in downtown London.

Dolores was sitting in the co-pilot, looking at the navigation on her mobile phone: "Oh, it will take four hours."

She frowned and turned to look at Peter: "Let's take turns driving. It's not in a hurry. We have to stop to eat on the way."

Peter smiled: "Okay."

He turned the steering wheel: "We can treat this as a real trip."

He looked at Dolores and smiled, Dolores raised her smiling face and nodded: "That would be great."

However, 10 minutes later, Dolores found that they were passing the same street for the third time...

She looked down at the navigation, and said in surprise and hesitation: "...Did you find something wrong?"

When Peter passed by a certain building for the second time, he noticed something unusual.

He parked the car on the side of the road resolutely, then poked his head over to look at Dolores' mobile phone navigation.

The phone showed that they were now parked on Edmore Street. He looked up and saw Brick Street clearly written on the street sign not far away.

Peter's nerves tensed instantly, and he immediately started the car and drove towards the intersection.

Dolores also became nervous. She looked around and was ready to fight.

Countless things flashed through her mind chaotically, how did they get exposed?

Is it Thomas Lullen? ?

Is it a migratory bird or a hydra? ?

But these are not important, Dolores and Peter looked at each other, neither of them spoke, Peter held the steering wheel tightly, Dolores took out her mobile phone, trying to contact S.H.I.E.L.D. and Kingsman.

"no signal."

Dolores whispered.

Peter had just turned the steering wheel, and they should be off the street by now.

However, the next moment, the two raised their heads, and their eyes locked on the street sign on Brick Street again.

The road in front of them was still the same as before. The building stood on the side of the street, and a circular skylight on the top floor was very iconic. They recognized it immediately, and their hearts gradually sank.

"get off."

Peter said to Dolores.

The two quickly unfastened their seat belts and opened the door.

They looked at each other and walked out of the car nervously.

Suddenly, this street became very quiet, and there was not a single pedestrian on the street.

The two went around to the back of the car and looked around warily.

However, there was still no movement.

They both had drawn out the small arms Harry had given them, but it was still all around.

Just when the two of them were vigilant and tried to break through, a circle of sparks suddenly lit up under their feet.

Before the two of them could react, their feet suddenly became empty and they fell heavily.

This feeling was like bungee jumping without any precautions, but it ended as suddenly as it started, not even a second later, they felt a strong sense of weightlessness, and they stepped onto the solid ground again.

Peter held Dolores' hand tightly. He didn't react in a hurry just now, except for holding the person beside him.

The mind was dizzy for a short time, but both of them staggered and almost fell to the ground.

Peter and Dolores supported each other, and their first reaction was to look around.

This is the interior of a certain building, dark, the door is behind them, and in front of them is a long staircase leading to the dark upstairs.

"What is this place?"

Dolores asked in horror.

As soon as she finished speaking, clear footsteps suddenly came from the shadow of the stairs.

The two of them took two steps back in a conditioned reflex, put on a fighting posture, and fixed their eyes on the place where the footsteps came from.

A mellow and deep voice came from the darkness, and a figure walked out of the shadows without haste.

"There's no need to be so nervous, two, I'm not hostile."

The person who came was a tall man. He was handsome, with a slender face, sharp cheekbones, and a blue-gray mixed iris staring at them quietly. He seemed to have a sense of insight and wisdom.

He was dressed strangely, like someone from a game, wearing a bright red cape, and a heavy gemstone ornament shaped like an eye hung on his chest.

"I am Dr. Strange, a mage."

"A what—?" Both of them thought they had heard it wrong, and Peter said in disbelief, "Mage??"

The man who called himself Dr. Strange walked down the stairs slowly, and the two of them took a step back vigilantly.

He seemed to roll his eyes: "Don't be so neurotic——"

He stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers, a familiar feeling of dizziness and weightlessness struck again, and when they regained consciousness, they found themselves sitting on a couch.

"Let's talk, boys."

Strange sat back, and a sofa for one person suddenly appeared behind him. His cloak was lifted up miraculously, and he sat back meekly without bothering the master, without moving any more.

He stretched out his hand to the front, and the two sofas were slightly separated, and a tea table was set up on the ground, with a small vase with flowers and three cups on it.

Strange tapped the rim of the cup with his fingers, and the tea filled up automatically. He picked up the black tea calmly, folded his legs, leaned back, and looked at Dolores.

“…”

“…”

The two young men were speechless in shock, and looked at him with disbelief in their eyes.

Peter said incoherently: "What? I thought... I remember Loki saying that there is no native magical energy on Earth??"

"some."

Strange took a sip of black tea and said with a blank expression.

After speaking, he put the tea cup back on the table, and said again as if he couldn't help it: "Don't listen to him, an evil god with eyes on the top of his head."

He snorted ironically, not hiding his attitude towards Loki at all.

Dolores gasped: "So you're really a mage?"

To be honest, the moment she saw him walking out of the darkness, she was very suspicious of some kind of vampire villain or something.

Strange looked at her with a very restrained and indifferent expression on his face, and nodded reservedly: "Yes, I am the supreme mage, protecting this world from the invasion of the dark forces of the universe..."

Peter said cautiously, "So you're also... a superhero?"

Strange looked as if he was going to shake his head, but he nodded in the end: "Almost, it's all about saving the world, what's the difference?"

"Why are you looking for us??"

Dolores asked incomprehensibly, she and Peter looked at each other again, eyes full of doubts.

"We thought you were...the bad guy."

Strange looked deeply at her, and said softly, "Your Highness the Crown Prince of the Hagana, of course I have a reason for looking for you."
