I am directing big events in American comics

Chapter 173 Destined, but completely different car accident

The car drives towards its destination.

'Kristine' still lowered her head, as if she had her own thoughts.

But in fact, she had been communicating telepathically with Lorraine, who was sitting in the back seat.

This one is not Christine.

But it was the Ancient One Mage pretending to be Christine.

"Mage, even if you are pretending, you don't need to dress up like this, right?"

Lorraine was a little puzzled. Look at this appearance. What has happened to this big guy Strange?
His mind was completely focused on Christine, and his eyes kept glancing this way.

How does he look like he is concentrating on driving?

"I have no way."

Gu Yi sighed, "Kristen dressed it up herself, I just turned into her appearance."

In fact, Gu Yi's movements were already very fast.

But she still underestimated Christine's intentions.

Before Ancient One arrived, she had already dressed up and was full of anticipation, waiting for Strange to arrive.

Even Gu Yi couldn't bear to ruin a girl's expectations.

But it's all about saving her from an impending car accident.

"At least Christine's intentions are still visible to Strange."

For Strange, this disciple, Ancient One has already done everything.

Strange was driving very fast, his hands that never trembled on the steering wheel, speeding along the road.

Soon, you will reach your destination.

Arrived at destination? !

Lorraine couldn't help but frown. The current development was something he had not expected.

He was prepared all the way, just waiting for the car accident to happen.

But until now, nothing has appeared.

He couldn't help but said to Master Gu Yi: "Things have become different."

Although the car accident may have happened on Strange's way back,
But what is happening today has never happened in any timeline.

"It seems something is still wrong."

Gu Yi sighed and spoke to Lorraine through telepathy.

If she had known this was the case, there would be no need for her to forcefully pretend to be Christine.

Now it is difficult to ride a tiger.

Strange got out of the car, and the flash lights around him suddenly flashed.

He is one of the protagonists of this dinner.

Strange came to the other side and opened the car door for Gu Yi.

Although he still maintained his pride, his eyes showed an unprecedented tenderness.

What he looked at was the dazzling Christine in his eyes.

Strange held Gu Yi's hand and said softly: "Don't be afraid, get out of the car!"

Gu Yi sighed deeply in his heart.

"When Strange knows everything in the future, he will probably hate me to death."

Putting aside these worries, Ancient One continued to play Christine, appearing in public under the guidance of Strange.

The flash blinks again.

"Smile!"

one reporter shouted.

Gu Yi forced out a smile, but suddenly, she was pulled into Strange's arms.

"They probably wanted to take this kind of photo, so don't be nervous."

Strange defended his behavior, but Gu Yi could clearly hear his beating heartbeat.

He tried to comfort others, but he was more nervous than anyone else.

Walked through the red carpet and entered the dinner party.

Gu Yi also understood the theme of this dinner.

Due to the threats the earth is currently facing, the Federation intends to establish a corresponding medical system to reduce casualties in crises.

As the best neurosurgeon, Strange is an indispensable cog.

At least, this is the apparent reason.

Lorraine walked among the dinner parties, and no one could notice his presence.

He saw many well-dressed big shots, all former clients of the Shadow Council.

"Something's wrong!"

Lorraine saw someone who shouldn't be here.

He even said that when he appeared, he completely explained to Lorraine that the future direction had changed.

It was a man with a slender figure and a charming smile. He was wearing a high-end suit and was talking politely to the people around him.

The man appeared in reports frequently and Lorraine was no stranger to his face.

Reed Richards.

This name will be very unfamiliar to many people.

But he also has another title, Mr. Fantastic among the Fantastic Four.

Of course, in this world, he hasn't gained superpowers yet.

Simply the smartest man on the planet.

In the world view of the "Fantastic Four", his body structure changed and he gained the ability to change any shape of his body according to his will.

And this superpower is just an inconspicuous part of his many abilities.

Reed Richards has been hailed as a child prodigy since he was a child. He graduated from many world-class prestigious universities and has doctorates in countless fields.

Some of the inventions he created could even compete with the gods.

Why would such a person appear at a dinner party about the medical system today?
Moreover, he will inevitably have to deal with Strange.

Mr. Fantastic Reed and Dr. Strange Strange, these two people are connected together, and people can't help but think of an organization.

The Illuminati.

A secret organization made up of the smartest and richest superheroes on the planet.

It exists to solve crises that threaten the earth and even the universe, and advocates making small sacrifices to avoid larger sacrifices.

There are six core members: Mr. Fantastic, Iron Man, Doctor Strange, Professor X, Inhuman leader Black Bolt and Atlantis King Namor.

Among these six people, three people have appeared now.

Is this the legacy of the God of Story?
Interesting.

You know, although the Illuminati's settings are very powerful, their real effect is often negative.

They always have good intentions but end up with bad results.

Many major events are even directly caused by them.

If these people show up, they might not be trying to steal the Shadow Council's jobs.

And Lorraine couldn't help but think at this time, if the Illuminati is destined to appear, will the members still be the original six people?
But Tony Stark is no longer Iron Man!
He now only wants to be the Iron President.

The next three people also changed at this time.

Professor X, Black Bolt, Namor...

The problem is Professor X. Lorraine is certain that there is no such person in this universe.

Lorraine knew that he did exist in a parallel universe, and was directly killed by the Scarlet Witch.

"Now that Magneto is here, it's not impossible for a Professor X to emerge."

If Lorraine wants it, there will be it.

If Professor X is to appear, this person must be in his own hands.

Otherwise it's an absolute trouble.

But he cannot be a member of the Shadow Council.

Lorraine smiled slightly and came to Reid's side.

"In fact, we have already begun to make some efforts..."

Reed used a gentle tone to talk to the people around him.

His current identity is an inventor, not a superhero, nor a mutant.

People are willing to listen to his wisdom and find some way forward in the confusing road ahead.

Lorraine stretched out her hand and scanned Reid's body.

really.

A smile appeared on Lorraine's lips. He detected a special energy in Reid's body.

He is already Mr. Fantastic.

But the source of this ability is not the mutation of the mutant gene, but another unknown existence.

"It seems that some power has come to this earth again."

Lorraine left quietly.

Reed plays an ordinary human being, talking to the people around him, completely unaware that someone has just learned the secret he carefully concealed.

On the other side, Strange has been surrounded by a group of people.

Many people want to get more inside information from him.

They didn't believe that just for a medical system, such a large-scale dinner would be held with so many big names attending.

There must be some other purpose.

But in fact, Strange was confused by their questions.

He really doesn't know anything.

From what he knew, this was just an ordinary dinner.

Strange felt a little overwhelmed by the enthusiasm of these people.

And extremely bored.

Their approach even pushed Christine aside.

This is not the scene he wanted!
He just wanted to push all these people away and go chat with Christine.

"Mr. Strange!"

Suddenly, a black-haired woman walked up to Strange with elegant steps.

She has a good figure and charming appearance. She blinked her seductive eyes and said softly to Strange: "Can I take a moment of your time?"

"well……"

Unexpectedly, Strange, who was extremely depressed just now, suddenly calmed down.

He seemed to be absent-minded and did not refuse the woman's invitation, but nodded repeatedly.

"Then let's go over there and talk alone!"

The woman chuckled and walked towards the garden outside the mansion.

Strange followed behind him.

"Sorry, he came with me."

Suddenly, 'Christine' appeared and stopped in front of the black-haired woman.

"I know!"

The woman chuckled, "I just have something to talk to him about."

She blinked her eyes again and looked at 'Christine'.

Then, the scene fell into unusual silence.

"Are you done?"

Christine, the Ancient One Master, said softly, "Forget all this and leave here. I will come to find you later. Please leave now."

The woman seemed completely unprepared for the situation.

The ability that he relies on for survival actually has no effect on this person.

"Hug, sorry, I'm leaving now!"

The woman lowered her head and left in a hurry.

Gu Yi looked at the woman's leaving figure, thoughtfully.

"You seem to know this person?"

Lorraine came to her side and asked aloud.

"I don't know her, but I know who she is."

Gu Yi said calmly, "A useless witch."

witch.

This word, appearing at this point in time, has a different meaning.

Especially when combined with Fantastic Mr. Reed, one name comes to mind.

Agatha Harkness.

She is one of the most powerful witches on earth, walking in human society as a governess.

In the Fantastic Four story, she served as the Fantastic Four's nanny.

But these are not important, what is important is her other identity.

She is Wanda's teacher.

"This witch is very incompetent. She just has some small means of manipulating people's hearts."

Ancient One analyzed, "But behind her, there should be a more threatening existence."

Lorraine thought for a while and asked, "Then why did she find Strange?"

"Strange is the one chosen by me."

Ancient One said, "He has unimaginable magical talent, and it is inevitable that he will be coveted by some people."

She said these words lightly, but Lorraine could hear the sound of gritted teeth.

Ancient One was angry.

Someone dared to touch her chosen heir. This is definitely a huge provocation.

And that woman who didn't know whether to live or die had just tried to control her mind.

Fortunately, we were in a critical period now, and Gu Yi didn't want to cause trouble, otherwise there would have been at least a spiritual backlash, turning the witch directly into a fool.

But that doesn't mean it's over.

Gu Yi also said just now that he would look for her later.

Lorraine said nothing, wishing the witch good health and long life.

Ancient One came to Strange's side and gently patted him to wake up the man who had fallen into a state of confusion.

"Uh, Christine, are you here?"

Strange said awkwardly. He only remembered that he had just been following a strange woman to the garden in a daze.

Christine must have been very angry when she saw it.

"Strange, you have to protect yourself!"

Gu Yi frowned and said, "Don't just follow strangers, do you hear me?"

Strange nodded repeatedly.

It seems that Christine is really angry. She used to call herself Stephen, but now she calls her by her last name.

"The situation is different now. Even I can't see clearly."

Gu Yi said this with a heavy heart.

Now that someone is eyeing Strange, will he still seek help from Kama Taj after he is injured?

Do you want to watch it from beginning to end?

Strange was listening and couldn't help but said: "Actually, I am a very dedicated person..."

"Remember, you are a very special being, and there are many people watching you!"

"I know."

Strange said, "But it doesn't change anything. I understand where my heart is."

"Will everything turn out the way I thought it would?"

"Will do!"

Strange finally waited for this opportunity.

He suddenly took a step forward and stared into Christine's eyes.

"Christine, actually, I, I..."

"What are you?"

Gu Yi suddenly frowned, and she discovered something strange.

I just wanted to give Strange a hint.

But why can this guy talk to me?

And the look in his eyes is so strange?
"Christine, I think you..."

"Wait a moment!"

Ancient One's face suddenly turned red, understanding the extent of Strange's misunderstanding!
He doesn’t think that what he said just now is because Christine is jealous, right? !
God!

She wanted Strange to stop, but it was clear that he couldn't stop now.

"You look really beautiful tonight!"

Strange has moved closer to hold Christine in his arms.

Gu Yi's brain felt like it was being shaken, and he hurriedly slapped Strange on the chest with his palm.

boom--

Strange's soul was knocked out.

"I am..."

He looked at his translucent body suspended in the air, full of confusion.

Then, his eyes darkened and he fainted.

Lorraine took back her hand and shook her head slightly.

What a farce.

……

Strange slowly opened his eyes and found that he was sleeping in the guest room, and Christine was sitting on the chair next to his bed.

"you're awake."

Kristine's expression was extremely tired, "You just passed out from drinking, and now the dinner is over."

"Did I drink so much?"

Strange wanted to recall what happened before, but couldn't remember anything.

It seems that he is indeed drunk.

"It's all because of those people who kept pliing me with alcohol."

Strange was also a little helpless, "It seems that I left you with a bad memory today."

pity.

He wasted his best opportunity.

"Nothing, let's go back."

Ancient Yi stood up tiredly and just wanted to end it as soon as possible.

Just having Strange get into a car accident had already left her physically and mentally exhausted.

What will happen next?
Just thinking about it gives me a headache.

"Ok!"

Strange was also very decadent at this time and no longer maintained his arrogant attitude. He lowered his head and went downstairs with Christine.

As he walked down the stairs, Strange saw an unknown man waiting there.

"Mr. Strange!"

The man walked over quickly and stretched out his hand, "My name is Reed Richards. Nice to meet you."

Strange shook hands with him: "Hello, I'm Steve Strange."

Reed looked regretful and said: "I originally wanted to get to know you formally today, but I didn't expect something like this to happen, but I still think I should introduce myself first, and then we will work together."

"Good, good."

Strange was completely uninterested in Reed's words. He just wanted to get out of this hellish place.

Reed continued, "If that's okay, I'd like to set up a meeting. When will you be available?"

"Not recently."

Strange shook his head and said, "Let's talk about it later, I'm not in a good state right now."

"Okay! Let's talk about it when you have time!"

Reed smiled heartily, exchanged mobile phone numbers with Strange and left.

"What a strange person."

Strange shook his head and said, "The first time I saw him, I felt uncomfortable."

Gu Yi nodded beside him: "I feel the same way."

This sentence made Strange feel a little better.

There is quite a tacit understanding between him and Christine.

After leaving the manor and getting in the car, Strange prepared to take Christine home.

Different from the high spirits when he came, he is extremely heavy now.

I still messed up this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

"Christine."

As he drove the car, he couldn't help but ask, "I didn't say anything strange when I was drunk, right?"

"no!"

Gu Yi nodded firmly, "You didn't say anything."

"All right……"

Strange lowered his head, was he so cowardly that he dared not express his feelings even when he was drunk?

Just when he was thinking about it.

'Kristine' beside her suddenly shouted: "Be careful!"

Strange suddenly raised his head and saw a truck coming towards him around the corner.

This is a mountain road, if something unexpected happens, it will be disastrous!
"hateful!"

Strange turned the steering wheel hard, and the tires made a screeching sound against the ground.

At the last moment, his car passed the truck.

"call--"

Strange had just breathed a sigh of relief when a huge impact hit the rear of his car.

Another car hit him.

Strange's car was knocked straight away and crashed into the cliff.

"Christine——"

As he continued to spin in the air, Strange stretched out his hand, trying to grab the person next to him.

But he only saw Kristine’s lips moving, as if she was saying something to herself.

Then, he lost consciousness.

……

"Drip-drip-drip-"

Drowsily, Strange's eyes opened slightly.

That was all he could do, as the muscles in his face were red, swollen and deformed, and he couldn't open his eyes at all.

He was lying on the operating frame and was being wheeled into the operating room.

Then he saw that his hands, which were originally slender and steady and the most valuable in the world, were now twisted out of shape.

"Hurry up, he doesn't have time!"

The nurse's call came to my ears, scattering the crowd in the corridor.

"What's wrong with me……"

Strange fainted again.

Outside the operating room, Lorraine was looking at the [Under Surgery] sign.

Gu Yi stood beside him and sighed slightly.

He watched his disciple get into a car accident but did not help him at all.

I still feel a little bit regretful.

Lorraine said softly: "Have you made arrangements for Christine?"

Gu Yi nodded slightly.

She implanted a memory into Christine.

Make her feel like she and Strange are at the dinner party.

Then there was a car accident.

However, due to Strange's desperate protection, she only suffered minor injuries.

She was currently lying in the observation room nearby, and the injuries on her body were Gu Yi's cover-up.

"This is what Strange would have done."

Gu Yi smiled bitterly and said, "Even in the most dangerous times in his life, he still wants to protect the people he loves most around him.

"I don't want to take away this memory, so let's grant it to him."

Lorraine nodded slightly: "You will be a good teacher!"

"Stop talking about that."

The days after Strange will be difficult.

In the original timeline, he fell into the lowest point of his life, and even drove away the person he loved most, and sought change alone.

But now, Christine probably won’t leave just because of his few words.

At least that's some comfort.

"Speaking of which, don't you find it strange?"

Gu Yi looked at Lorraine, "It seems that the car accident was arranged by someone?"

Lorraine nodded.

He can see it clearly as a bystander.

"The consciousness of those drivers has been manipulated."

Lorraine stretched out his hand, revealing a very small thing, like some kind of mollusk, twisting and squirming in the palm of Lorraine's hand.

"This is what I found in their heads, do you recognize it?"

Gu Yi observed it carefully for a while, then shook his head and said, "I don't recognize it, it's something I've never seen before."

"Really……"

Lorraine put the mollusk away.

"I'll go find Tony or Banner and let them test what this is."

"Thanks a lot!"

Gu nodded, his eyes already showing murderous intent.

Although she knew that the car accident would definitely come.

But it shouldn't be this way.

If it weren't for Ancient One's presence, Strange would probably be dead.

Because the height of the fall is wrong.

That mountain is higher.

"Someone wants to kill my disciple..."

Gu Yi said softly, "Then let me see who they are!"
