Chen Yu, Ethan, and Tony flew in one direction.
Ethan sat behind Chen Yu, holding onto the Nimbus 2000's broomstick, his long, dark hair wildly fluttering in the wind.
The three of them were squeezed onto one flying broom, with Tony tightly hugging Ethan, getting a mouthful of Ethan's hair.
The MK1 armor designed by Tony had temporary flight capabilities.
But its flight capability, to call it flight, was more like having flame thrusters installed on its feet.
It could fly, but only for a short while.
It was like a rocket, launched and then done.
As for the rest of the journey, everything was left to inertia.
Tony's MK1 armor was built in an extremely harsh environment, and the materials used were all materials used to make missiles.
To be able to create the MK1 armor with rudimentary forging equipment was enough to show what a brilliant genius Tony Stark was.
Chen Yu pulled out the Serenitea Pot in front of Tony's disbelieving eyes, then put the armor Tony had taken off inside.
Then he pulled out a flying broom from the Serenitea Pot and gestured for them to get on.
They planned to find a city to rest first, and then find a phone to notify Pepper to send people for rescue.
The three of them took the money they had searched from the terrorists, found a restaurant, and prepared to enjoy a hot meal.
Ethan and Tony had been starving recently; for so many days, those terrorists made them do physical labor to build weapons, while only giving them a small amount of food to sustain their lives.
Even livestock ate better than them.
The three ordered a table full of specialty dishes.
Things like fried rice with minced meat, vegetable salad, naan bread with filling, and so on, filled the entire table.
As Chen Yu prepared to eat, he saw Tony and Ethan staring wide-eyed behind him.
It was as if they had seen an alien again.
Chen Yu looked back, only to see a spark rapidly spinning and expanding, transforming into a portal.
Behind the door was an antique-looking room, which, judging by its furnishings, had very distinct oriental characteristics.
They saw a woman, a bald woman dressed in a yellow robe.
"What is this?"
Tony and Ethan asked with wide-open mouths, utterly astonished.
They felt their scientific understanding being challenged once again.
Before Ethan and Tony could even shout a warning, they saw a fair hand reach out from the portal, grab Chen Yu, and pull him directly into the portal.
The portal, formed by sparks, immediately vanished before Tony and Ethan's eyes.
Its appearance and disappearance were both equally sudden and caught them off guard.
It seemed as if everything was an illusion, only the overturned chair indicated that someone had indeed been sitting there just moments ago... Chen Yu sat obediently on his knees in the center of the hall.
His buttocks rested on his ankles, his upper body was straight, and his hands were naturally placed on his knees.
He exuded an aura of obedience and good manners.
In front of Chen Yu was a table.
On the table was a beautifully engraved bronze pot with lotus patterns and several teacups.
These teacups were slender and white, with a new bamboo carved in relief on their surface, and the material felt as if it were carved from jade fat.
They appeared both elegant and precious, truly rare treasures.
Chen Yu's gaze was fixed on the tea in the teacup, as if flowers could bloom inside the tea.
Sitting on the other side of the table was a bald woman, dressed in a loose yellow robe, with fair skin and not a single wrinkle on her face.
It seemed that time had not left many traces on her.
Chen Yu knew who she was, and precisely because he knew, he stared intently at the tea in front of him, waiting for the great one to speak.
Ancient One, a skyfather-level powerhouse, was the Sorcerer Supreme of Earth, residing in Kamar-Taj in the Himalayas.
Compared to Ancient One, Dumbledore, Grindelwald, and Lord Voldemort combined were mere juniors in front of her!
"You can call me Ancient One," Ancient One spoke first, smiling at Chen Yu, "I am a sorcerer, and this is Kamar-Taj; they call me the Ancient One. I apologize for such a rude way of inviting guests in."
"Ancient One... hello, my name is Chen Yu."
Chen Yu felt like he was a child who had been caught misbehaving in class and dragged into the office by the dean.
He felt so small, pitiful, and helpless.
His expression was tense; if he detected the slightest anomaly, he would immediately go offline.
"You are not a sorcerer of Kamar-Taj, so you don't need to call me the Ancient One; just call me Ancient One, a guest from another world."
Hearing Ancient One's address to him, the sweat on Chen Yu's forehead flowed even more profusely.
Ancient One was the guardian of the Time Stone, and the Eye of Agamotto hanging around her neck possessed the great power to reverse time.
Even if he had resurrection items, he didn't want to waste them.
Chen Yu now slightly regretted exploring the Marvel Universe, not expecting to be targeted by a big shot like Ancient One as soon as he arrived.
"Relax, child," Ancient One continued to say with a smile, "You suddenly appeared on Earth two days ago and were detected by the dimensional invasion defense array of the Three Sanctums. Can you tell me where you come from, child?"
Perhaps Ancient One's words contained a calming power; Chen Yu only heard Ancient One say the word "relax" and felt his tense mood calm down.
But Ancient One's next words made Chen Yu nervous again.
"After all, our duty is to protect the magical world, maintain Earth's order, and protect Earth from invasions from other dimensional spacetime realms."
Then, did he, a member of the Fourth Catastrophe, an outsider from another universe, count as "invasions from other dimensional spacetime realms" in Ancient One's words?
Chen Yu swallowed, stammering in response, "Ancient One... I come from Earth in another world, a wizard from Gryffindor at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry... Please guide me."
As he spoke, Chen Yu frantically used Occlumency in his mind, fearing that Ancient One might have methods similar to Legilimency to see through his lies.
"Relax more, child, no need to be so nervous," Ancient One continued with a smile, "As long as you don't do anything to harm Earth, I won't do anything to you. Come, have some tea to calm your emotions, and we'll continue chatting."
After hearing Ancient One's definitive words for this conversation, Chen Yu finally let out a long breath, picked up the teacup, and drank it all in one gulp.
This crude way of drinking tea did not displease Ancient One.
After one cup of tea, Chen Yu felt his body and mind cleansed, and even his magic had increased to some extent.
This tea was indeed a good thing; it was not only sweet and delicious but also had the effect of improving the body and increasing magic.
Seeing that Chen Yu liked the tea, Ancient One refilled his cup.
"I saw your battle earlier. The magic you use is different from ours. Can you tell me about the magic in your world?"
Hearing Ancient One ask him about spells, Chen Yu felt a sense of relief again.
He wasn't afraid of the other party having demands, only afraid of them having no demands.
Chen Yu pulled out his first-year magic textbook from Hogwarts from the Serenitea Pot and began to explain the operating principles of the Harry Potter magical world to Ancient One.
Seeing the text in Chen Yu's textbook, Ancient One was also very surprised and exclaimed, "It seems that in other universes, there are worlds where magic can be cast without the power of dimensional demon gods."
Time always passed quickly during their conversation, and by the time Chen Yu came to his senses, it was already dark outside.
Ancient One called her servant, Master Hamir, and asked him to arrange Chen Yu's food and lodging.
Before leaving the room, Chen Yu asked Ancient One, "Can I learn the magic of Kamar-Taj?"
Chen Yu was still very envious of Kamar-Taj's magic, especially the teleportation magic, which he coveted immensely.
This teleportation magic could be said to be both offensive and defensive; it could serve as a portal, or as a Magic Cylinder from Yu-Gi-Oh! to deflect an opponent's attacks, and it could also cause damage to the enemy using the inherent cutting ability of space.
Most importantly, practicing Kamar-Taj's teleportation magic only required drawing circles with a sling ring, which was infinitely safer than practicing Apparition.
Ancient One smiled and nodded, replying, "Of course, Kamar-Taj never forbids others from learning magical knowledge."
After Chen Yu left, Ancient One remained seated at the table, drinking tea and perusing the magic textbook Chen Yu had left behind, as if she intended to sit there, drinking tea and reading for a long time.
It wasn't until the moon had moved to the east that Ancient One, after repeatedly reading all the books many times, sighed and showed a tired expression.
"What a pity, if he hadn't come from another universe, it would not have been impossible for the Ancient One to let him take over..."
After saying that, she closed the textbook and drank the tea in her cup, which had long since turned cold.
