For Strange, what Lan said was undoubtedly a star in the dark. Light up a little light in his gray life.
As he himself said, he could no longer accept his life like taking drugs to keep his hair. After eating Li Jie's spaghetti bolognese, Strange left for London.
The Temple in London, although he has not been there, he has heard of it. Although Thor threw cold water before he was taken away, he said, "Maybe that Baron Modu was actually wearing a wig."
But Strange still took Thor's words as fart. There can be so many coincidences in this world? He didn't believe it anyway.
For Strange, what aliens are coming, what political reforms, all this has nothing to do with him. What is more important in this world than keeping your beautiful hair? No!
He knew Baron Modu. He was the oldest disciple of Guyi. Apart from the king, he was the one who had followed Guyi for the longest time.
Baron Modu was born in a noble family in Europe and has a hereditary noble title. The title of his baron is the hereditary title of his family.
Baron Modu is a serious white European, or a slightly arrogant white European noble. He has a very good talent for magic, and he was chosen as an introductory disciple when he was a boy.
Originally as a big disciple, Baron Modu should be the person closest to Gu Yi. It's like stickman and rock (Brother Daredevil)-Matt (Brother Daredevil)-David (King Haibian). Because in the traditional Asian relationship graph, the relationship between master and apprentice is an important relationship second only to the blood of parents.
However, with the gradual growth of Baron Mordo's age, his relationship with Gu Yi gradually became rusty, and there was no such close relationship as father and son. This is just the opposite of Lan. Although the relationship between Lan and Gu Yi is a master-disciple, it is essentially like a father and a daughter.
In the end, Baron Modu was sent out of Kamateki by Gu Yi and went to London to manage the London Temple. It can also be considered Modu's hometown. In this way, it seems that Gu Yi still takes great care of Baron Modu.
But everyone's thinking is different, and some people seem to take care of it. But in the eyes of the parties, it may be an exile.
"The master kicked me out of the core circle." This is Baron Modu's self-talking in the London temple shrine.
He is different from Gu Yi in many places. Gu Yi was born 500 years ago as a farmer's child. After growing up, he also had a hard time studying spells and was used to a relatively poor life.
Gu Yi's ability is very strong, but he basically does not pursue the material level of enjoyment. As can be seen from Kamateki's food, simple dishes like white boiled yak meat are daily diet. Herder's crude brew and even slightly turbid barley wine is Guyi's daily drink.
Modu, who was born in a noble family, is actually very difficult to accept all this. He has been used to eating clothes since he was a child, and he had a hard time following Gu Yi to learn spells in his youth.
But since the magic became a success, Modu will find ways to improve his life. From food to utensils will improve.
Now the daily tableware used by Kama Taiji is mostly wooden tableware and black pottery tableware that are common in pastoral areas, and a small amount of porcelain is used in combination.
Baron Modu himself used a complete set of sterling silver tableware and a set of beautiful crystal cups, which were carefully carved from the plate to the cup.
And the food eaten by Modu is more particular. What kind of steak do you need the red wine produced in a certain year. What kind of drinks are suitable for caviar in the afternoon and so on.
Modu's pursuit grew from his bones. He is a hereditary aristocracy, and the family has passed on these traditions and ancestral etiquette for nearly a thousand years.
Gu Yi didn't like Modu, because he felt that excessive pursuit of external material would make people lost in the pursuit of magic.
However, these things are just subsections, not a matter of principle. After all, everyone has everyone's living methods. Gu Yi can't demand that Modu be as happy as himself.
But when Modu showed more and more that he liked things on the material level, Gu Yi made the decision to let him go to London. Since then, Modu was transferred out of Kamateki.
Just like an ancient official who wanted to be a Beijing official, because only a Beijing official has more opportunities to face the holy. Only when you are impressed in front of the Holy One can you climb higher.
Modu was sent to the Temple Mage in the London Temple. Gu Yi gave him freedom and let him go the days he wanted. But it is also equivalent to kicking Modu out of the core competition.
What is the competition? Do n’t forget that Gu Yi ’s greatest legacy can be the status of the Supreme Master, as well as the initiation of the next Supreme Master before Gu Yi stepped down.
Initiation is not like passing an internal force to others in a martial arts, and then turning the rookie into a master. Instead, in a special way, Gu Yi passed on his life-long knowledge to the next mage.
How much you can master depends on personal talent, but the magical accomplishments and various unique understandings accumulated over the centuries are a huge treasure that cannot be added.
This is a very tempting thing, but now it has nothing to do with Modu. Because he was kicked out of Kamateki and worked as a temple mage in London.
He didn't really like this, because London has the Greenwich School left by Archmage Merlin. The Greenwich faction and the Kamateki faction have a little conflict in concept.
Of the three magi temples, the London temple is the most difficult to manage. It is necessary to balance the relationship between Greenwich and Karma Taiji, but also to protect the inheritance of the Merlin Archmage ’s palace, and also to do what every temple has to do, that is, to maintain the stability of the earth ’s space and prevent differences. Degree invasion.
Modu was not very happy, especially since he now knew that Gu Yi had actually accepted two new apprentices. One is the famous Dr. Doom, and there is an unknown little Strand.
There was still a little hope in Modu's heart. He also fancied that he could inherit Gu Yi's mantle one day ~ www.novelhall.com ~ because Gu Yi said long ago that he would not put the position of Supreme Master Give it to Lan.
Except for Lan, Gu Yi had only one apprentice. Then when Gu Yi is about to resign, his status must still be passed on to himself.
But the two newly-appointed apprentices now broke the last illusion in Modu's heart.
In the spiritual practice, Modu felt that his meditation was not very good. He couldn't calm down, and he always felt that something had to happen.
When he walked out of the cult, he was ready to relax with a drink. At this time, a news came through: "The fourth disciple of Master Gu Yi, the youngest disciple, Steve Strange asked for an interview."
PS: In Marvel comics, Modo is white and was born in a traditional noble. Marvel movies were forcibly changed to blacks for political correctness. The movie doesn't matter, but if the book still follows the movie's settings, then it will weaken a lot of storytelling.
I can't write that a black man is a hereditary nobleman in Europe. But if it were not hereditary nobility, the value conflict between Modu and Guyi would not arise. So let's forget the movie, and go according to my settings.
