"You're saying that you want to establish an organization and set up your base on Venus?" When Ancient One returned from London, Li Jie did not hesitate to talk to Ancient One about the Illuminati.
"Yes, Sorcerer. We sincerely invite you to join this organization." Li Jie nodded seriously. "To be honest, there are many threats in this world, and the government is not necessarily trustworthy."
Li Jie said bluntly. Ancient One did not refute this point. Instead, she asked in a questioning tone, "Why do you think so?"
"Humans are actually a very intelligent species." Li Jie did not directly talk about the problem of the government. Instead, he talked about humans. "When a person is in danger, humans can always unleash unexpected potential and wisdom."
"Humans are very intelligent!" Li Jie raised a finger. Ancient One nodded. Li Jie continued, "But a group of people are very stupid!" Li Jie retracted his finger and clenched it into a fist.
"As a group animal, humans are always dependent. Many times, they often look to others to help them complete their own tasks." Li Jie pointed out the nature of many people.
"This is not uncommon in history. When a person with foresight proposes an idea, he is always easily influenced or even controlled by others."
Ancient One asked with a smile, "Then can you be sure that your idea is correct? The members of your organization include genius scientists and tycoons, an outstanding lobbyist like you, the leader of the mutants, and even the most influential hero in modern society! "
"Do you know how much impact you will have on this world when you gather together?" Ancient One asked calmly.
"Yes, Sorcerer. We know our weight very well. That is why we are inviting you. Tony Stark, who had founded the organization, had originally thought that someone would be able to stop him when he was hot-headed. Because of this, he wanted to establish the Illuminati. "Li Jie nodded. Explain the true meaning of this organization.
"I still remember the first time we met. You brought me to see the constant rise and fall of the planetary civilizations in this universe. Earth is really too immature compared to those civilizations that can easily destroy a solar system. That's why we're hoping we can get organized. You must know about those things. "
Li Jie said to Ancient One, but Ancient One didn't answer directly. Li Jie continued, "I don't know if you know the existence of the Holy Shield Brotherhood. There used to be such an organization, and Tony's father was a member. The slogan of the Holy Shield Brotherhood was: Our world should not perish like this. I agree with this philosophy. "
Ancient One frowned slightly when she heard Li Jie mention the Holy Shield Brotherhood, but she quickly relaxed. He looked at Li Jie and said, "Holy Shield Brotherhood? I think you probably forgot that this is Kamateki. When you went to the library last time to comprehend inner strength, I think Lan should have mentioned something to you. Isaac Newton left his notes here. "
Yes! When Li Jie heard Ancient One's words, he suddenly remembered that this was indeed the case. Many small details began to appear in his dusty memory. At that time, he saw countless images in the library of Kamateki. Li Jie saw many things from the illusion of the birth of the universe.
And one of them, he had just seen the real thing in the Immortal City of Rome not long ago. That was the immortal symbol of the Holy Shield Brotherhood, a spear and a shield!
Li Jie didn't know if there was any connection. If countless sages had left their knowledge in Kamateki, then did Newton also leave his knowledge about the Holy Shield Brotherhood in Kamateki? One had to know that the Immortal City was now completely ruined, leaving only a pile of ruins.
As for what the Holy Shield and the Holy Spear were, both Li Jie and Tony were very interested. Unfortunately, Howard did not elaborate in the notes he left for Tony. But in 2620 BC, Imhotep had relied on these two weapons to defeat the alien species that invaded Earth in that era.
It could be said that there were too many speculations left for these two weapons! Unfortunately, the Holy Shield had disappeared, and no one knew if the Holy Spear, which was in the custody of the eastern branch, was still there.
While Li Jie was lost in thought, Ancient One did not intend to let him think about these questions quietly. "Newton first came to Kamateki around 1800. He was the world's greatest scientist at that time. Many of his ideas were amazing. He sought the power of magic in Kamateki to explain things that science could not explain at that time. "
"He lived in Kamateki for 20 years, learned a lot of things, and left a lot of things. I agree with some of the ideas of their organization. "Li Jie noticed that Ancient One said the word 'some'. This meant that Ancient One did not fully agree with the ideas of the Holy Shield Brotherhood.
"Of course, although there were differences, I still felt a little sad when I learned that the Holy Shield Brotherhood had died." Ancient One shook her head.
Li Jie was suddenly curious. "Mage, do you know how the Holy Shield Brotherhood died?"
"I'm not sure. The Holy Shield Brotherhood strictly adheres to the creed of confidentiality. I have no intention of breaking their own rules. They have always been self-disciplined, and I do not supervise them. "Ancient One expressed that she did not know the whole story of the Holy Shield Brotherhood's demise. She only knew that the secret organization had disappeared after the Holy Shield Brotherhood was completely destroyed.
In this regard, Li Jie could only shake his head helplessly. Li Jie did not intend to pursue the matter of the Holy Shield Brotherhood too much. After all, it was an old history from 60 or 70 years ago. There was no point in going through it now. The most important thing now was to solve his own problems.
"So, Mage, about the Illuminati?" Li Jie finally asked Ancient One.
"The Illuminati?" Ancient One closed her eyes and thought for a moment. Finally, she said slowly, "I will help you build a passage across Venus and Earth. But I don't have time to attend your meeting. "
Ancient One was actually a very busy person. Li Jie had already guessed that a long time ago. His rejection was completely within Li Jie's expectations, so he wasn't surprised at all. It is already the best result for Ancient One to agree to help build a Space Gate.
"In addition, about the Buddhist cultivators, what Lan told you before is basically right," Ancient One casually told him about the conversation between Lan and Li Jie. "It is better to rely on yourself than on others. If you really want to help your friend, it is better to deepen your own Buddhist cultivation. "
"Huh? Are you trying to persuade me to become a monk? "Li Jie looked at Ancient One. He suddenly felt that this was a conspiracy between Ksitigarbha and Ancient One.
Ancient One smiled and did not reply. She just continued, "I can give you all the books about Buddhist cultivators. Back then, I had some contact with several major schools of Buddhist cultivators. After they no longer had suitable disciples, those books were handed over to me for safekeeping. "
For Li Jie, this might be good news. There was a lot of basic knowledge in Buddhism that was similar to metaphysics. In this way, his cultivation would be settled, right?
But why did he feel that Ancient One was trying to persuade him to become a monk?
When everything was settled and Li Jie was ready to leave, Ancient One stopped Li Jie. "Wait a moment. I have something to ask of you." Ancient One did not stand on ceremony with Li Jie.
"I will do as you say." Li Jie did not have much room to refuse Ancient One's request. They had known each other for a long time, and Ancient One had never asked him to do anything bad. Well, except for the fat Thor that he fostered.
"It's a small matter. Don't be too nervous." Ancient One waved her hand, indicating that this was a simple matter. "I want Lan to live in the secular world. She needs to leave Kamateki. "
"What?" Li Jie did not understand what Ancient One meant.
This was the conclusion that Ancient One came to after thinking about the conversation between her and Mordo in London. "Among all the disciples, Lan is the most special. She was abandoned when she was born, and I brought her back. She is a mage who has never lived in the secular world. "Ancient One shook his head.
"Hmm? That doesn't seem to be a problem. I don't think Lan is any different from other mages. " Li Jie did not think that there was any benefit in letting Lan live in the secular world, especially since modern society was so polluted. It would be better to stay in the quiet and peaceful Kamateki.
"There's a big difference, Nightcrawler." Ancient One denied. "Almost all mages have lived in the secular world and experienced the joys and sorrows of mortals. Almost all mages were mortals before they learned magic. But Lan was born to be isolated from all of this. That's not good. "Ancient One shook her head.
Because some of what Mordo said in London might be true, and some things might really be happening. Ancient One continued: "Just like all former Buddhist cultivators, Sorcerers also need to go through the mortal world to become stronger. It's just that Lan's order is reversed. "
Unfortunately, Li Jie had not seen the movie Doctor Strange. This was a story that was released after he transmigrated. The Doctor Strange in the movie was exactly what Ancient One said, the model of a mage's growth. One could not grow without setbacks and pain. This world was very fair. In fact, Lan's ability was approaching a bottleneck. Ancient One knew this, which was why he made this request.
"And I still need to find a successor." Ancient One said to Li Jie bluntly.
"I thought Lan was your successor." Li Jie was confused.
"No, she's not. She's my disciple, but she's not the successor to the position of Sorcerer Supreme. " Ancient One said seriously, "So I still need Lan to go to the secular world to help me find a suitable successor."
Okay, this kind of thing involved Kamateki and the inheritance of Sorcerer Supreme, so Li Jie could not interrupt. He could only say, "Then what do you want me to help you with?"
"I heard that you've been taking care of Thor recently. Oh, no. I mean, you've been taking good care of Thor recently. "Ancient One's slip of the tongue made him say what he was thinking.
"Ah, probably. I don't think Odin has seen Thor recently. "Li Jie guessed. Did Ancient One already know that he raised Thor into a fat otaku? I wonder if Odin knows about this!
"No, the war with the dark elves took all his attention. He has no time to look at Thor. But I want to say that you should move faster. If necessary, some violent methods will be used. "Ancient One said seriously.
Li Jie didn't know if it was an illusion, but he felt that Ancient One had lowered his voice when discussing this issue, as if he was afraid of being heard.
Li Jie also said in a low voice, "I even used my assault rifle. I'm doing my best."
Hearing Li Jie's answer, Ancient One smiled with satisfaction, "I think one sheep is herded, two sheep are also herded. While you take care of Thor, help me take care of Lan's life in the city! "
"Huh? You're not joking? You saw Thor! "Li Jie said weakly.
