It was not difficult to find Stephen Strange's home. Fang Zheng drove to his door in almost no time. It was obvious from his appearance that he was a fairly wealthy American middle-class man. But for Fang Zheng... it was actually not much different.
After getting out of the car, Fang Zheng straightened his clothes, then walked up the stairs and pressed the doorbell.
“Ding Dong.”
As the doorbell rang, a black-haired man opened the door and looked at Fang Zheng.
"What can I do for you?"
"I'm looking for Dr. Stephen Strange."
Looking at the black-haired man in front of him, Fang Zheng smiled.
"It's urgent."
"Are you here to see a doctor? Sorry, do you have an appointment..."
However, before the black-haired man could finish his words, Fang Zheng had already stretched out a hand and placed it on his chest. The next moment, the black-haired man groaned and flew backwards. Then, Fang Zheng strode into the house in front of him, and behind him, the door closed heavily, dividing the inside and outside of the house into two worlds.
"You...you are..."
Lying on the steps, the black-haired man stared at Fang Zheng intently, opening his mouth to say something. However, Fang Zheng just glanced at him.
"If I were you, I wouldn't ask such a stupid question."
However, before Fang Zheng finished his words, another voice suddenly rang out, interrupting him.
"Right, because it's obvious that you are the enemy!"
As Fang Zheng said this, he saw a long whip of fire suddenly appear and whip towards him. However, facing this oncoming attack, he neither dodged nor blocked it, but just stood there with his hands behind his back. Just as the long whip of fire was about to hit Fang Zheng, an invisible magic barrier was suddenly activated, offsetting its powerful magic power.
Advanced spell nullification barrier.
Fang Zheng reached out and flicked the dust off his shoulder, then he looked up at a figure slowly descending from the second-floor balcony. He was wearing a wizard-like robe and a red cape, with a circle of curly hair hanging down from his forehead, which was particularly conspicuous.
"Are you Dr. Stephen Strange?"
"Right. So what do you want from me? Judging from your appearance, you don't seem to be here to see a doctor."
"Of course not. In fact... I'm here to get the Time Stone."
“…”
Hearing this, Strange's face suddenly darkened.
"What do you want to do with it?"
"This has nothing to do with you. I just came to inform you."
"Humph, if you want to take the Time Stone away from me, it depends on whether you have the ability to do so!"
In response to Fang Zheng's words, Strange roared, then he immediately opened his hands, and the next moment Fang Zheng saw two orange magic circles appear in Strange's palms.
"Magic circles, this is something only magical girls can play with. You are already old, Mr. Strange."
Looking at the scene in front of him, Fang Zheng shook his head. At the same time, several magic runes shook in front of him, and then dozens of magic missiles appeared out of thin air and blasted towards Strange. Seeing these magic missiles coming towards him, Strange's face changed slightly. He quickly stretched out his hand, and soon, with his movement, the magic circle instantly rotated and enlarged. However, at this moment, Fang Zheng stretched out his hand and gently pointed at Strange.
A dark ray suddenly shot out from his fingertips and hit Strange's magic barrier. The next moment, the magic barrier in Strange's hand immediately shattered into pieces and completely collapsed!
Advanced magic is lifted!
"What?!"
Strange obviously didn't expect that his magic would be directly cancelled by the other party. Before he could react, the whistling magic missile had already hit him directly. Accompanied by a series of screams of pain, Strange was hit heavily into the sky and then fell to the ground.
"puff……!"
At this moment, Strange was no longer as elegant as before. His face was bruised and swollen, and he looked like he had been put in a sack and beaten. Fang Zheng still had his hands behind his back and slowly walked in front of him.
"I would like to resolve this matter as peacefully as possible, Mr. Strange."
"But I don't think so..."
Staring at Fang Zheng, Strange said in a cold voice, then he exchanged glances with the black-haired man next to him, suddenly stretched out his hand and pressed it on the ground!
“…”
However, nothing happened.
"Oh, maybe I forgot to remind you that before entering here, I have cast the dimensional anchor to completely block the space here. So here, you can't cast any spells to teleport or transfer space."
It was unknown whether Fang Zheng's reminder had worked, but the two men who heard him immediately jumped up and rushed towards Fang Zheng without hesitation. However, just as they jumped up, a flash of lightning streaked across the sky and hit them heavily.
“Ahhhhhhhh!!!”
Accompanied by screams, the two men suddenly fell to the ground like twitching fish, struggling constantly.
"I said I hope to resolve this matter as peacefully as possible."
Fang Zheng retracted his right hand that had just released the lightning arc and came in front of the two again.
"Please don't get excited. Frankly speaking, I don't like hurting innocent people. But if you continue to resist, then I'm not sure what will happen."
"Okay... okay... I understand, I understand..."
At this moment, Strange had completely changed. His hair stood up straight and his face was dark. Looking at Fang Zheng in front of him, he quickly raised his hand and made a gesture. Soon, along with Strange's movements, the necklace on his chest slowly rotated and opened, revealing the green gem inside.
"The Time Stone is right here, but if you kill me, you'll never get it!"
“Haha…”
However, to Strange's surprise, Fang Zheng just stared at him, then shook his head and sighed.
"Mr. Strange, I think you misunderstood."
"Misunderstanding? Misunderstanding?"
"That's right."
Facing Strange's surprised question, Fang Zheng nodded.
"I said at the beginning that I came to tell you that I was going to take the Time Stone away, but I never said that I was going to take the Time Stone from you."
"You, what do you mean?"
Hearing this, Strange's eyes narrowed slightly, while Fang Zheng smiled and then extended his hand.
"Because the Time Stone is right here, all I have to do is take it away."
As Fang Zheng moved, the space in front of him began to fluctuate slowly. Then, Fang Zheng stretched out his fingers and easily, as if by magic, took out a small, green-glowing gem from the empty void.
Seeing this scene, Strange's expression suddenly changed.
"You, how did you..."
"Hiding the Time Stone in the cracks of time is indeed a good idea, but unfortunately... this trick doesn't work for everyone."
While carefully admiring the Time Stone in his hand, Fang Zheng couldn't help but shook his head. What a joke, he is the Time Dragon, and manipulating time is his job. For other people, perhaps they will never be able to find the Time Stone in their entire lives, but for Fang Zheng, from the moment he entered the door, the Time Stone was like a piece of fruit placed in the living room, and he could take it whenever he wanted.
"Then I'll take my leave."
After getting the Time Stone, Fang Zheng nodded politely to the two of them. Then the next moment, he flashed away, and before Strange could do anything else, Fang Zheng had disappeared from their sight.
“…”
Seeing this scene, Strange and Wang looked at each other in silence. After a moment, Wang opened his mouth to ask.
"What should we do now?"
"How should I know..."
At this moment, Strange also had a look of frustration. He had never expected that the Time Stone that he had hidden so well would be taken away so easily?
Anyway, who is that guy?!
"boom!!"
However, before Strange could figure out the problem, suddenly, accompanied by a loud bang, a huge object fell from the sky, smashed the ceiling and then the stairs, and fell into Strange's house. Seeing this, the two of them also jumped up in a hurry and went to check, but when they saw the huge object falling from the sky clearly, they were all shocked.
"Is this...Hulk?"
