Since he accepted the commission to guide Wanda from Gu Yi, Lu Xiao has the obligation to guide her, at least to let Wanda officially enter the door of the occultist.
Lu Xiao had a strong desire to survive and guessed that Yongzhen might have a misunderstanding. He decided to take Wanda to London with him and explain things to Yongzhen face to face.
But before that, Lu Xiao plans to get in touch with Aletheia.
Since entering the Marvel world, Aletheia went to New York under Lu Xiao's instruction, bought a house and transformed it into an experimental factory, and began to prepare for the final battle with Thanos.
Instructing Wanda to go to the teleportation hall and wait, Lu Xiao stayed there and dialed the contact with Aletheia.
"Aletheia, how is the production progress?"
At this time, Aletheia was busy underground in a manor in the suburbs of New York. A large number of different tools protruded from her silicon-based body, and she was assembling a production line that had been prepared.
"It is progressing smoothly. The first assembly line has begun operation. It is expected that five high-precision intelligent robots can be assembled every day."
"However, the material supply problem is more troublesome. My recent large-scale purchase of steel has aroused the ideas of some people, and they are tracing my purchasing channels."
Lu Xiao raised his eyebrows: "You won't be discovered, right?"
"Haha~ Of course not."
Aletheia said proudly: "The most they can do is cut off my upstream supply chain. It's impossible to catch me."
"Hmm..." Lu Xiao thought about it for a moment: "I will find a solution for the material problem. You assemble the remaining three production lines first to ensure that maximum production efficiency can be entered at any time."
"no problem."
After hanging up the contact with Aletheia, Lu Xiao pondered for a moment and finally dialed a number he had not contacted for a long time.
"...What a rare visitor. I didn't expect you to contact me, an old guy who has retired."
Lu Xiao said with a hint of sarcasm: "Stop pretending, you wouldn't be Nick Fury if you retired so easily."
The braised egg man on the other end of the contact channel was dressed in a refreshing outfit, holding his cell phone while playing golf on the grass.
"Bang~"
After hitting a high ball, Fury looked at the sky, shook his head and laughed: "Let's be honest, what do you want me to do? What can you provide me?"
…
The three major temples and Kama Taj all have teleportation channels directly connected to each other. When Lu Xiao walked out of the London teleportation gate with Wanda, who was full of curiosity, the temple guardian Daniel was already waiting at the door.
"Master Supreme, welcome to London."
"Don't be so reserved." Lu Xiao smiled and patted Daniel's strong arm: "It seems that your body has recovered well. Nothing happened in London recently, right?"
"No."
Daniel briefly reported: "Since the defeat of Casillas, the mysterious world in London has been quiet."
Lu Xiaoruo asked pointedly: "What about other places in Europe? Has anything unusual happened?"
Daniel solemnly replied: "There are indeed some abnormalities. Recently, the mystics from Norway sent us news that the earth veins in the Nordic region are somewhat unstable."
"I have sent a small team to Norway for on-the-spot investigation, and we should be able to draw conclusions soon."
Lu Xiao narrowed his eyes and reminded: "Let them pay attention to safety. If they feel the explosive growth of powerful magic, don't hesitate and evacuate immediately."
"OK."
When he reached the stairs, Daniel suddenly remembered something: "By the way, an Asian lady came outside the temple and asked you by name. I will temporarily place her in the reception room on the first floor."
"Thank you, Daniel."
Lu Xiao quickened her pace and walked down the spiral staircase, and saw Yong Zhen who was reading a book in the reception room that Daniel mentioned.
Hearing Lu Xiao's footsteps, Yongzhen raised her head in advance, and her eyes first turned to Wanda behind Lu Xiao.
'As expected...'
Lu Xiao smiled bitterly and rubbed his eyebrows. Fortunately, he was smart and alert enough.
Daniel sensed that the atmosphere was not good, so he left first because he still had the responsibility to protect the temple.
Lu Xiao gritted his teeth and said to Yongzhen, who had a calm expression: "Ahem~ Yongzhen, let me introduce you."
"This is Wanda the Scarlet Witch, and she is my apprentice for the time being."
Wanda retorted dissatisfied: "Who is your apprentice now? Although Master Gu Yi has not officially accepted me, at least I am of the same generation as you."
Lu Xiao did not argue with Wanda, but spread her hands helplessly: "Wanda, this is Yongzhen, my fiancée. Please get to know each other."
Yongzhen, who is ice and smart, can tell from Wanda's attitude towards Lu Xiao that he is thinking wrongly.
Secretly heaving a sigh of relief, Yongzhen regained his previous intimacy and took the initiative to reach out to Wanda: "Hello, Miss Wanda, I am Yongzhen."
Seeing the two people shaking hands peacefully as a sign of goodwill, Lu Xiao finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Hela's crisis was imminent, and he didn't want to waste energy on trivial matters of jealousy.
After saying goodbye to Daniel, Lu Xiao took the two of them and teleported back to Kama Taj.
In order to avoid suspicion, Lu Xiao left Hamil in charge of Yongzhen's trial to join Kama Taj.
After the strengthening of the soul's materialization, the strength of Yongzhen's body and soul has long been beyond what it used to be, and he easily passed Hamil's test.
Considering that Yongzhen was not a mystic from Hongmiaozheng, under Lu Xiao's initiative, Hamill temporarily gave Yongzhen the status of guest minister.
Instructing Yongzhen to leave temporarily with Wanda, whose level was not high enough, Lu Xiao recruited Hamil and other elite mystics who stayed behind at Kama Taj.
"I just confirmed with Daniel that the ley lines in Norway are beginning to fluctuate. The sealed God of Death Hela should be very close to breaking out of the seal."
To the mystics of Karma Taj, it is no secret that Hela is sealed on Earth.
As Odin's physical condition declined day by day, Hela, who felt hope, struggled harder and harder.
Although this will consume a lot of Hela's magic power, it will also put a greater burden on Odin's body and accelerate his countdown to death.
After being sealed for more than a thousand years, Hela couldn't wait any longer. She couldn't wait to break through the seal and return to Asgard to take back everything that should belong to her.
Hela's seal was constructed by Odin using his own life force as a keyhole, and Lu Xiao couldn't think of a suitable way to strengthen it for a while.
After Modu left, Kamal Taj's talent pool was somewhat lacking.
Faced with such a major crisis, except for Hamil and a few older senior mystics who behaved relatively calmly, the other new generations who were temporarily promoted seemed a little panicked.
After all, Hamill and others are only human beings. Their physical fitness has begun to decline after they are over sixty years old. One day they will withdraw from the front line, and the cultivation of reserve talents is urgent.
Wanda is one, but she alone cannot support the entire Karma Taj.
Recalling one of the last words Gu Yi left before his death, Lu Xiao issued an order to Aletheia after the meeting.
"Find me a man named Stephen Strange, who is supposed to be a neurosurgeon, and send his home and work addresses to my Focus."
