"Tick Tock, Tick Tock"
Saber was humming a strange song with no tune in his mouth, his hands on the steering wheel, and in front of him was a dark night. Compared to the big city atmosphere of Gotham and New York, when walking in the wilderness, people often can see the world better.
For example, the stars above his head that had never been so clear before, the Milky Way that made one's imagination run wild, and the looming snowy mountains in the distance. Even at night, the peerless scenery of this place couldn't be hidden. At the very least, Seber who was completely at peace from head to toe felt an indescribable sense of relaxation as he walked on this path.
Here, it is the closest road from Nepal's Kathmandu Tribhuk to the Himalayas. After getting off the plane, Saber rented a car and rushed to the Himalayas at the fastest speed.
Although Ancient One asked Saber to go all the way east, Saber certainly didn't mean to let him go all the way from the United States to Nepal. Besides, the mysterious Kamar-Taj can't be found on the map at all. Judging from Saber's only 19 months of life left, Ancient One seems to want him to take a gamble.
Or to be more mysterious, there must be some kind of restriction or trial waiting for him ahead.
These hidden big men always like to play this kind of trick to test the mind and rules of some of the candidates. Although Saber also thinks that this method is indispensable, to be honest, when the person being tested becomes himself, this kind of treatment is a little unbearable.
How should he put it … Compared to these mysterious directions, he preferred to be direct.
Furthermore, no matter how beautiful the scenery was, if one continued to stare at it for a long time, it would be boring, especially when the driver was someone who liked to use brute force to solve problems. He lit a cigarette but did not smoke it. He allowed the smoke to fill the interior of the car. Smelling the familiar scent, Seiber's heart could not help but drift back to Gotham.
I wonder if Joker and Batman are fighting? I wonder if anything happened to Catherine and Selena in Gotham? I wonder if Harvey went back to preside over the overall situation?
People, as long as they are thinking, time will pass quickly, so when Saber came back to his senses, there was already a car parked on the side of the road in front of him. It seemed to have broken down, but when he got closer, Saber found that it was not … He squinted his eyes for a while, parked the car aside, opened the door and got out. In the low temperature of minus ten degrees, he took off his gloves, took out a delicate cigar and put it in his mouth, leaning against the car, his face was full of watching a good show..
Thank God for that old man. In this dreary night that made people want to scream, there was finally something to relieve their boredom.
The cold wind blew at the red strips of cloth tied to poles on both sides of the quiet road. They were left behind by sincere pilgrims and were filled with the unique aura of the local civilization. However, in this sacred world, a murder was going on.
Strange, with a bloody nose and a swollen face, was dragged out of the black car. The once world's most famous neurosurgeon was no longer in high spirits. It has been a full seven months since the car accident, he seemed to have spent seven months in hell.
Stephen Strange, if you read carefully enough, you shouldn't forget this name … Because he was the doctor that Logan found for Kayla, who was said to be able to reconstruct the spine.
Only less than ten cases of that kind of difficult surgery were completed in the entire world. Among them, seven of them were performed by this genius young doctor. It could be said that in this field, he was undeniably God. Unfortunately, geniuses all had a miserable fate.
Strange had lost all his family members when he was young, including his beloved little sister. Since then, he had become a very cheerful person, but also a very closed off person. If you looked carefully, even when he was in a desperate situation, there was only indifference in the depths of his eyes.
This was a pitiful person who lived under a mask. He sealed off his heart and refused to let anyone in.
After that car accident, Strange's tragic life continued. Twenty-seven steel nails were inserted into his hands, which announced the end of his career as a doctor. He lost his most important survival skill and quickly fell from his extravagant life. He desperately searched for a way to cure himself, but could only despair again and again.
It was only when he spent his last penny that he finally found a final, nearly impossible hope.
In the distant east, there was a mysterious mountain peak called Kamar-Taj, the Land of the Holy Spirit. In that place, there was a Saintess. She was capable of helping any patient recover their health … The prerequisite was that one had to be able to find that place. Strange was not a believer. He simply did not believe in such nonsense. However, on the streets of New York, he really did encounter a patient that he had personally diagnosed to be paralyzed. That patient was living a healthy life far surpassing that of ordinary people.
Without a doubt, this instantly destroyed the firm worldview that he had spent over twenty years to establish. It also contributed to his final effort this time. If he still failed this time … he would have no choice but to compromise with fate. At this moment, the pauper Strange had messy hair, a long beard and a face full of hardships. He looked just like an authentic homeless person.
"Bastard! Hand over your money! "
A young man with a tall stature, dressed in local clothes, spoke in English and violently threw Strange onto the cold ground. He was holding a black hunting rifle in his hand. The other man was wearing a leather jacket and appeared to be slightly older. He coldly observed everything before him, walked to the side, picked up a cigarette, and silently smoked.
"No! No … I don't have any! "
Strange raised his trembling hands and allowed the violent young man to snatch away his bag and rummage through it. However, other than a pile of clothes, he truly did not have a single penny on him.
In order to treat his injuries, Strange had already spent every penny he had. Even the plane ticket to Nepal was bought for him by the beautiful doctor, Palmer who had been silently working for him. Right now, he was a pauper through and through.
"Money!"
The young man rummaged through the bag several times. There were only some clothes inside. His young and typical face was flushed with anger. He grabbed Strange's collar and pulled him up from the ground. He slammed him onto the car and pressed the black hunting rifle barrel against Strange's chin.
"I want money! Otherwise … die! "
There were villains everywhere, and Nepal was no exception. In fact, before Sai Bo came here, he had heard that there was a type of evil business that was similar to car robbers. In this godforsaken place, unless one was prepared beforehand, there was at least a one-third chance that one would be robbed.
This place was indeed a holy land … however, not all the people who lived here were saints.
Furthermore, committing crimes was always the fastest way to earn money. Furthermore, if one were to kill someone here and casually dump them somewhere, even if the entire Nepal Police were to be mobilized, it would take at least a month to find them.
"I beg you! I beg you! "
Strange put his palms together and begged the young man with the hunting rifle. With great difficulty, he said with a bitter voice, "This is my only hope. I beg you … let me finish my journey. Let me see the Land of Holy Spirit. Even if it is just for a second, I beg you!"
"Holy land?"
The young man's understanding of English was clearly not that good. However, he was still able to grasp the pronunciation. He was stunned for a moment. Then, he laughed loudly and kicked Strange to the ground. Using the hunting rifle, he poked Strange's chest and said loudly.
"That place … does not have it! Simply … does not have it! You, idiots! This is simply … nothing, Kamar-Taj! There is no … holy land! "
"What? No? "
Strange was stunned on the spot. The hope in his eyes quickly disappeared. However, soon, the will to survive rushed into his heart.
"No! You lied to me! Right?! You lied to me! There must be! Kamar-Taj, there must be! You lied to me! Bastard! You lied to me!!! "
"Kamar-Taj must have it! It must have it! It must exist! "
At this moment, this thin and weak person was like a furious lion. He pounced. With an unknown source of strength, he pounced towards the young man. He raised his fist. His eyes were red. This imposing manner shocked the young man with the hunting rifle. He was caught off guard and could only take a punch from Strange. However, his hand that had spikes embedded in it could not even lift a cup. How could he hit someone?
This punch did not harm the young man at all. Instead, it caused Strange to fall to the ground with his fist clenched. This scene caused the young man to laugh loudly. He kicked Strange to the ground. The hammer of the hunting rifle in his hand was pulled back. He used the black barrel to press against Strange's chest.
"Money! Give it to me! Otherwise … die! "
"I do not have it!"
Strange's last bit of anger was ignited. He fiercely glared at the young man, "I do not have it! Even if I have it, I will not give it to you! "
"Bastard!"
The young man moved the barrel downwards. His eyes were shining with undisguised killing intent.
"Then you can die!"
"Bang"
A muffled sound startled Strange, but it wasn't the sound of a gunshot. He turned his head with difficulty and saw the middle-aged man who was with the young man lying on the ground. His neck was twisted 180 degrees in an abnormal manner, and his eyes were staring right at Strange. However, it wasn't enough to scare the surgeon. In their line of work, who hadn't seen a few dead people?
The young man raised his gun and aimed it at the figure that walked out of the darkness. He had a silver, twisted ghost mask on his face. He moved his fists, and just by looking at his approaching steps, there was a suffocating heaviness to him.
"Don't come over!"
The robber shouted. Saber ignored him. The young man gritted his teeth and opened fire at a distance of less than 15 meters!
"Bang"
This kind of old-fashioned shotgun fired iron sand. At this distance, it could almost destroy a person's skin, internal organs, and bones. The impact was also enough to send a person flying. However, the person who was hit did not even sway. Blood seeped out from his clothes. Strange clearly saw the wound on Saber's arm. In less than a second, it had recovered to normal.
This scene scared the young man so much that he trembled. However, it also aroused the ferocity in his bones. He wanted to fire a second shot. However, Saber grabbed the gun barrel. Like kneading soft mud, he easily twisted the steel gun barrel into a U shape.
Other than Saber, the other two people were stunned. Saber loosened his hand and patted the dust off his hand. His voice that was distorted by the voice changer sounded in the darkness.
"You … where did you hear about Kamar-Taj? And you said it doesn't exist? En? "
The young man was scared out of his wits. He was so stunned that he couldn't utter a single word. He only started to panic when he realized that Seiber had grabbed him by the neck and lifted him up into the air. The suffocating feeling made him wave his hands continuously as he struggled to speak in English.
"I … I don't know! I just … I just heard people say that it is a legend. The legendary Holy Mountain, only the chosen Holy Spirit can enter it! It doesn't exist! For mortals, it is untouchable! I don't know, please … let me go! I beg you! "
"You don't know?"
Saber tilted his head and looked at the panicked young man. He could easily feel that the young man's head was full of fear and panic. However, such an answer did not satisfy Saber. He simply had another way.
His eyes instantly turned dark red, and a ring of magma-like flames surrounded his eyes, causing the cold night sky to become dry and dry. He grabbed the guy's neck and said in a low voice.
"Look, my, eyes!"
"No! No! Devil! Devil! No!!! "
In less than a second, the moment their eyes met, Saber browsed through the memory of this brave and ruthless mortal. Worthless … this is simply a worthless person!
Seiber was pissed. He tossed the lifeless body of the young man to the side. The moment the body left his hand, a ball of fire ignited within the young man's body. That was the pitiful state of a sinful soul being ignited. However, anyone who wantonly destroyed the last hope of others deserved to die, didn't they?
