Wen Liang put the luggage in the car into the storage space, and the two went to Milton first. The villa had been built for the most part, and it would probably not take too long for Ella to decorate the villa again.

This is the power of money. Under the temptation of banknotes, the project progress is proceeding rapidly.

Then the two went to the mall, bought a lot of food, and drove back to the villa in Dover.

As soon as he entered the farm, he happened to see a FedEx vehicle leaving. Wen Liang slowed down and watched the familiar vehicle leave.

He suddenly remembered the first world he traveled through. The crashed plane he was on seemed to be from FedEx. Seeing this plane, he couldn't help but think back to when he was just starting out and struggling to survive.

Seeing Wen Liang watching the courier truck leave, Ella said, "I received a call from the courier company today. I asked them to put the package in the shed in the yard."

"Have the items purchased overseas arrived?" Wen Liang's eyes couldn't help but light up.

"Yes, the speed in China is incredibly fast. I placed an order a few days ago, but I didn't expect it to be delivered so quickly!"

"That's great, we can have hot pot tonight!"

When Wen Liang went to Chinatown to eat hotpot a few days ago, he couldn't get used to the mutated version of hotpot that came from overseas, so he bought a lot of hotpot ingredients from overseas.

Since you are buying it once, you might as well buy some seasonings for cooking. Otherwise, it will be difficult to find them all when living abroad.

Returning to the villa, the two got out of the car and saw several large wooden boxes placed under the open-air awning on the west side.

Wen Liang walked over and opened one of them, and found that it was full of red oil base for hot pot, stacked together in bags, a whole box, at least thousands of bags!

And there are three of these!

There were several remaining boxes, which were filled with star anise, pepper, cumin, broad leaves, dried chili peppers and other items, and even a ton of onions, ginger and garlic were transported.

Because they specifically requested the best domestic products and the simplest and safest packaging, and asked that other information besides the name be written on the packaging bag, such as the production date, shelf life, and place of origin, the goods that Wen Liang received, except for the stubborn shelf life on the outermost large packaging box, the small packages inside were really clean.

This is also for Wen Liang to do for the convenience of traveling through time in the future and to avoid unnecessary trouble.

With a wave of his hand, all the supplies were put away. The eight wooden boxes took up ten cubic meters of space. With the increase of attribute points, a large storage space was opened up.

The basic supplies in the space are enough for me to live on for more than ten years. There is no need to store more basic supplies. It is better to save them for more useful things in the future!

After returning to the villa, Wen Liang and Ella immediately began to prepare the ingredients for the hot pot in the evening.

Wen Liang took out the double copper pot and put a packet of red oil base into the left side, and on the right side was the mushroom soup he had made himself.

Ella washed and picked vegetables and prepared various greens, while Wen Liang sliced the beef and mutton he had bought. His mastery of all weapons allowed Wen Liang to use all kinds of cold weapons skillfully.

For example, the kitchen knife in front of me cuts meat into slices as thin as a cicada's wing, each slice is crystal clear, of equal thickness, and half fat and half lean...

Ella also prepared a vegetable salad. After putting it on the table, she suddenly remembered to invite Wade and Vanessa over.

Just as I picked up the phone, the doorbell rang.

Ella wondered who would come to see her and Wen Liang. She walked over and opened the door, and saw a thin old man standing at the door. He looked frail, but there was something about him that made Ella feel very uncomfortable.

"Who are you looking for?" Ella took the initiative to ask the visitor who was silent and had a serious expression.

The man on the other side spoke slowly, his expression slightly less stern, "Ella?"

"Do you know me?" Ella was a little nervous. If she hadn't seen him alone, she would have thought someone was coming to arrest her again!

"I know you and your boyfriend Will. My name is Eric. Can I come in..."

Although he seemed to be asking, he had actually taken a step forward and walked in.

Ella subconsciously took a step back and opened the door. This made her feel incredible, but she quickly caught up with the stranger who walked into the living room.

"The hot pot is ready and we can eat soon. Did you call Wade...who is it?!" Wen Liang suddenly realized something was wrong. He looked up and saw a stranger walking into the restaurant.

"Will? Hello, I'm Eric!" said the old man wearing a helmet.

"Magneto Eric?" Wen Liang called out the name of the person opposite.

"It seems that you know me. Has he told you about me?" Magneto said with a relaxed look.

"Who, Professor X? No, he just said he was going out to meet an old friend..."

Magneto shook his head. "That's all? That's right. He won't tell you, the newcomer, the purpose of his departure. He will endure everything silently until one day he can't bear it anymore."

"There is one thing I have to make clear. I am not a newcomer. I just want to live a simple life with Ella, that's all!"

"So you really didn't join them? Then join the Brotherhood. Maybe our ideals are the same!" Eric extended an olive branch forcefully.

"No Eric! You didn't hear me clearly. I just want to live a stable life and don't want to join any faction!" Wen Liang extended his hand and invited, "Instead of wasting time talking about this, why not sit down and eat hot pot together!"

After going out and taking a look at the red color in the copper pot on the table, he couldn't help but feel his throat welling up. He shook his head and said, "I thought you would agree with us, but it seems I thought too much."

"I'm sorry. I actually like your clear-cut character of distinguishing between gratitude and resentment, and your determination to sacrifice your life for the tribe...but your methods are a little too extreme."

"Extreme?" Magneto seemed amused by Wenliang's choice of words. "You said I was extreme? Then when you were killing people, did you think you were extreme? I don't think you have the right to say that to me. After all, you've killed a lot of people!"

Wen Liang did not get angry because of Magneto's words. He just shook his head calmly and said, "I am just stating my opinion about you and the Brotherhood. I am only expressing my attitude, but it does not mean that I hate you, including now!"

"Then why don't you join us?" Magneto said, "Do you think you can live a good and stable life as long as you want?!

Wen Liang shook his head, "From the first time I passively crossed over, I have been living in fear and trembling, and have not had a good rest. I am really tired.

Now I just want to be with Ella and nothing else."

Eric looked at Wen Liang in front of him with a look of disappointment in his eyes. After all, he had obtained Wen Liang's physical examination report and knew that he was a special person!

In the end, Magneto just shook his head and sighed, "What a pity, I thought we would do something big together, and I quite admire your ruthlessness and decisiveness..."

Seeing Magneto turn around, Wen Liang said, "I'm sorry to disappoint you~"

"I hope you can keep your word and not join any other organization! Otherwise, it would be really sad to kill a genius..."

After seeing off Magneto, Wen Liang immediately started today’s opening blind box!
