Chapter 552: The Necessity of Archaic

The Supreme Mage is not just a title, it represents the supreme status, the generations of allegiance of the three mystical mage families, there is no mage who does not want to become the Supreme Mage, besides, in the Kama Taj Library, there are several locked books that can only be studied by the Supreme Mage, and others can't even touch it.

There is also the Eye of Agamotto, which can only be used by the Supreme Mage, and only the Supreme Mage knows how to drive the Eye of Agamotto, which is why Grell was recognized as soon as he showed that he could drive the Eye of Agamotto.

At this critical moment of the death of the Supreme Mage, the Eye of Agamotto is very much needed to protect the earth, not to mention the strong enemies of other dimensions, just one Dormammu can devour the earth, and nothing else matters at the moment of life and death.

Looking around, everyone bowed their heads and bent down to show their respect for the Supreme Mage, while Greel's eyes were fixed on the three who were supposed to be the strongest Mystic Mages in the front row.

The robed Venerable Hamil is the guardian of the Hong Kong Temple and the father of the King, while the high-pointed wizard-hat grandmother Minerva is the patron of the London Temple, which Daniel, a middle-aged black uncle, saw the last time he handed over the Twist Temple.

These three mystical mages guard the three temples and protect the earth with the seal of Emperor Weishan, of course, mainly to guard against Dormammu, and some powerful creatures from other dimensions. It's like a fishing net, which can stop big fish, but some fish that are too small can easily leak through, and if the fish is strong enough, it can also break the net rope.

Therefore, Kama Taj has cultivated so many mages, not only to select supreme mages from them, but also to solve these small fish from another dimension. There are also some powerful demons who can find a way to bypass this big net and project their power onto the earth, such as the big daddy who has become a ghost rider, who has accepted the power of a certain demon.

And there is more than one demonic agent like this throughout the ages, but unless you happen to encounter it, it is difficult to find it, after all, the earth is so big and there are billions of people, it is impossible to check whether everyone has accepted the demonic power at all times.

As a result, the temple needs powerful guardians to protect it from being vandalized by these demonic agents. And the children of these guardians are naturally one step ahead of others, they can be exposed to magic since they were young, and with a little talent, they can become powerful arcane mages, and with the help of their parents, becoming the new guardian of the temple is almost a sure thing.

This has been passed down from generation to generation, surrounding the temple, forming three major arcane families, who have sworn allegiance to the Supreme Mage, guarded the temple, and protected the safety of the earth. In this way, the three major arcane families have produced a large number of strong or weak arcane masters, but more are ordinary people, after all, magic is not hard work, and talent accounts for ninety out of nine.

Even if the mystic mage cannot interfere in the human world, the inheritance from generation to generation is enough to make the three arcane families naturally a few hundred steps ahead of ordinary people, and it is very simple to create wealth. But as much as you get, you pay as much as you want, the mystical mages protect the earth at the cost of their lives, and when a strong enemy attacks, the first thing to deal with is the three major temples.

Therefore, every time there is an offensive and defensive battle around the three major temples, the damage is not small, and the Supreme Mage easily does not make a move, and when he makes a move, he will deal with the most difficult enemies, such as Dormammu... Or some powerful demon.

If the Three Temples are the front line against the invasion of other dimensions, then Kama Taj is a school for training arcane mages, and the mages of the three major temples will find suitable and willing to become secret mages in their respective territories, send them to Kama Taj for training, and assign them to the three major temples after qualifying.

And the Supreme Mage is also guarding the 'seed base' of the Mystic Mage, after all, a certain temple can still be built if it is destroyed, the Mystic Mage is sacrificed, and a new Mystic Mage comes out of Kama Taj, but if Kama Taj, who has many magic book collections and magic apprentices, is destroyed, it is equivalent to being cut down and eradicated, and the trouble will be big.

After paying their respects to the new Supreme Mage, the mages of the three major temples, led by the Guardians, returned to their respective temples, where they gathered to defend against the overlap of the Nine Realms, and now that everything is back to normal, they will continue to fulfill their duties.

The king was streamed down by Master Hamil, leading the way in front, and his mouth detailed the past of the Three Sanctuaries and Kama Taj, as well as the duties of the Supreme Mage, made Grell realize that the Supreme Mage was really not just a title, but a true Supreme.

Always be ready to deal with powerful enemies from another dimension, defend Kama Taj, teach new magic apprentices, and ... There's a lot of work to do, and no one has paid you yet. The good thing is that he can read the locked magic books, but Grell needs to understand it himself.

When the king heard Grell say that he hadn't read these books at all, the whole person was stunned, the kind of dumbfounded, and he didn't react for a while, this is really the first time in the history of Kama Taj, before watching Greel's skillful use of the Eye of Agamotto, I thought that the ancient one mage had taught it, and there was nothing at all.

Wang patted his fat face, tried to calm himself down, stood in front of the last row of quaint bookshelves, thought for a while, pointed to a book in the far corner that was locked by three chains blessed with spells, and asked, "The Book of Emperor Weishan, have you read it?" ”

Grell shook his head, and the king's shocked mouth couldn't close, and he stammered: "But... Can... That... Did His Holiness only teach you how to use the Eye of Agamotto? ”

The Book of Emperor Weishan, but a must for the Supreme Mage, the legend records the secret of time, as well as the method of driving the Eye of Agamotto, I haven't seen this, how did he use the Eye of Agamotto? I don't just know how to do it.

"Hmm... She didn't say this, I realized it on my own. Grell shrugged, he wondered why he hadn't taught him the magic in these books if the Ancient One had wanted to pass on the Supreme Mage to him.

Possible... Does it have to do with the fact that you haven't finished the basics yet?

Greer thought of this possibility, the basic magic books given to him by the ancient one, Greer still hasn't comprehended the mastery, his magic talent was originally blessed by Kamen Rider's card, and it shouldn't be close to genius, let alone compared to Doctor Strange, a demon who has been in the top ten years a year.

Wang looked at the young and excessive Greel, his face was depressed, he sighed deeply, and said, "You have broken two records of Kama Taj, the youngest and weakest Supreme Mage, the youngest of the previous successor Supreme Mage, and also studied magic for thirty or forty years. ”

He thought about it very seriously, what he was doing at his age, still studying spells and fighting skills in Kama Taj, and he was still ten years away from going to the Three Great Temples. Also, such a young child, how much jerky and difficult magic knowledge can learn, should be very talented in mysterious spells, so he was pulled by the ancient one Venerable to be a 'strong man', and first used the eye of Agamotto to support for a while, in order to spend the time without the Supreme Mage.

"I think the youngest, I don't agree with the weakest, I'm very strong, and I'm only a drop away from the strongest Avenger."

"Avengers? Are you an Avenger? The king was taken aback again, why did this kid still have something to do with the Avengers?

"Remember, Kamen Rider, it's me." Greel turned his head as he spoke, and began to browse the last row of spell books dedicated to the Supreme Mage, and said without looking back: "Otherwise, why do you think the Ancient One Mage would let me help guard the temple for a year, my strength after transformation is super strong." ”

Wang was silent, he was naturally no stranger to the famous Avengers, in the past two years, the most exciting news was the Battle of the Twist and the Avengers, although there are Iron Man and Thor in front, but several other members are also very famous.

Hulk, Kamen Rider, Spider-Man, every time they haunt, they will make headlines, and they will be reported repeatedly, and their toys, figures, etc., have dominated the global best-selling list for several years, making Stark Enterprises make a lot of money.

Unexpectedly, the thin child in front of me turned out to be Kamen Rider, which... It's unbelievable to come more than going out and meeting someone who says he's the Terminator, after all, Kamen Rider's high-tech armor and mysterious magic have nothing to do with it.

The king has a feeling that the world is collapsing, the youngest Supreme Mage plus Kamen Rider, this is too much, and the excellent ones don't give others a way to live.

Greel, who had his back to the king, could not see the king's expression, and was looking at these magic books that belonged to him for a long time to come, although he declared that they were temporary, but the Hamil mages felt that this was just Greel's humble words.

It's just that he took office, and he was still airborne, so he naturally had to be humble before he made achievements in serving the public, but Greer was really temporary, and once Doctor Strange grew up, he would hand over this mess to him, and he did a good job anyway.

After glancing at the magic books, all of which were chained with several thin chains, Greel turned back to the king and said, "Can I take this book back and read it?" ”

"Of course, you can browse all the books here." Wang immediately replied, and immediately returned to the role of 'docent', introducing: "Apprentices can only borrow the most basic magic books, and must register, and can not bring out Kama Taj, after learning the basics, can borrow higher-level magic books, the further down, the higher the requirements for borrowing magic books, after all, high-level spells are very demanding." ”

Speaking of this, Wang paused for two seconds before continuing: "Your words, naturally, there is no such restriction, but it is best not to pass on these books. ”

Wang didn't want to say this, but he had to be reminded, after all, this child was too young, and he was afraid that he would treat the magic book as a novelty and take it to tease his sister or share it with his friends. After all, he has not been systematically trained by Kama Taj, so it can be said that he is 'very ignorant of the rules', which is why Master Hamil kept him as an assistant, that is, to talk about the rules of Kama Taj, and to help Grell quickly become familiar with and be competent for the duties of the Supreme Mage.

"Don't worry, the Ancient One has taken me on a tour of Kama Taj and told me a lot about Kama Taj and gave me a few magic books."

Greel just said it casually, but the king was amazed, the ancient one mage had never 'passed on' a magic book, and the people she taught were all Kama Taj's apprentices, so it was really the first time that such a 'free-range' teaching was outside.

After all, the mystic mage needs to master many ancient languages, the magic book is even more jerky and difficult to understand, it needs to be explained and taught, as well as how to use spells, as well as physical training, it is not self-taught at all, even if it is a king, there is a father who is a temple guardian, it will take more than ten years to study Kama Taj to become a qualified arcane mage.

This... Does this kid have such a high level of talent? Can you learn spells by reading a book? Then this should be taught by the system.

Wang Bai was puzzled, he really couldn't understand the intention of the ancient one, not only to release a mysterious mage who seemed to be a genius, but also to pass on the Eye of Agamotto and the Supreme Mage to this young child, could he really take on this great responsibility?

The king's heart is very uncertain, but just like the guardian of the Three Great Temples, he will also follow the wishes of the Ancient One Venerable and strive to help him become a qualified Supreme Mage and continue to protect the earth and mankind.

"How do you take them down?" Grell pointed to these magic books for the exclusive Supreme Mage, he was going to take them all, and then put them in the castle dragon, so that Casillas had no books to steal, to see how he could summon Dormammu, this After seeing Casillas, Grell had already decided not to give him the opportunity to become a believer in Dormammu.

Not only that, but he also has to find an opportunity to fire this dissenting guy, it's better to abolish him, save him from doing things, in case he recruits Dormammu, he can't negotiate by himself, he doesn't want to negotiate with Dormammu, if he doesn't give in, wouldn't he die in an infinite loop.

"The spell above is something that only the Supreme Mage knows how to remove." Wang looked helpless, this row of books, even the librarian could not touch him, let alone him.

"And what do I think?" As soon as Grell spoke, the chains of the five books in this row were opened in unison, and the thin iron chains hung down, making Wang Ran's eyes widen.

"Uh..." even Grell was stunned, tentatively stretched out his hand, touched the Book of Emperor Weishan without hindrance, and took it down from the shelf, until he held all five books in his arms, and nothing happened.

The spell was lifted? Or is it bluffing at all?

Grell is now extremely skeptical that there is no spell to protect these books at all, otherwise why Casillas tore up the magic book at random in the movie, just like the 'rumor' driven by the talent of Agamotto's eye for mystical spells, presumably to put an end to some people's ambitions.

Five thick magic books were stacked in his arms, barely past Greel's chin, and the back row of bookshelves was completely empty, except for a dozen or so thin chains that reverberated like pendulum clocks, and the luster of the spells attached to them had disappeared.

Holding the thick stack of books, the librarian who stood in the middle of the two rows of bookshelves turned around and bowed to Grell before continuing to tidy up the vast library.

This includes, but is not limited to: checking the integrity and health of the spells of the chains, the storage of books, the repair and care of the bookshelves.... It can be said that he is a well-deserved administrator, who has to take care of everything, including snakes, insects, rats and ants.

Yes, Kama Taj is not short of this kind of small animals that are common all over the world, especially Kama Taj is still a wooden house, extremely old, what double vacuum glass, reinforced concrete walls, and Kama Taj absolutely have nothing to do.

Everything is mainly quaint, antique wooden beams, pillars, floors, tables, chairs, benches, beds and wardrobes, all of which are wooden, and the most attractive are those little animals to build nests and breed, so the first thing that magic apprentices have to adapt to when they come to Kama Taj is how to learn magic hard and simple.

After completing their primary studies, the magic apprentices can really start learning magic, and the first magic that most apprentices choose is how to repel mosquitoes, and if it is in the summer, then this probability will rise to 100%.

Grell also asked the king on the road why Kama Taj didn't build some modern houses, the whitewashed walls, shiny LED lights, computers, TVs, rice cookers and other electrical appliances were all complete, it was not difficult for Kama Taj to take out the vases and calligraphy and paintings in the room, and the money obtained was more than enough to build an empire building.

In response, the king was silent for a few seconds before replying, "If it is no different from a human city, how can the apprentices who have come out of the scientific society forget the so-called science and face up to the magical worldview." ”

Grell thought about it and felt that it did make sense, when it came to magic, most people's impressions were wands, magic robes and magic books, and they would never associate IT men in suits and leather shoes, mid-split heads, leather shoes, stocks, BB machines and magicians.

However, the truth is... The three sanctuaries have computers, as well as a series of modern appliances such as televisions, refrigerators, air conditioners, etc., even if the place where Kama Taj deliberately maintains the ancient style, it is also equipped with WIFI, and the stove used by the ancient master to make tea does not burn coal and wood, but an induction cooker.

The reason why the residence of the magic apprentices is very ancient, and even the clothes are kept in the medieval style, is to make them realize that they are in the wizarding world, otherwise they live in high-rise buildings, surf the Internet, play games, drink Coke, order takeout, and read magic books in electronic versions, which... If you are almost talented, you can't change your concept in a lifetime.

The most important thing in magic is the will, to see the world with the eyes of the heart, the footwork and gestures when using magic, all of which are to strengthen the user's self-confidence, firmly believe in the existence of magic, and firmly believe that it can mobilize the energy that drives magic, otherwise the newcomer asks 'how should I use magic', and the dry sentence 'I believe you can do it, you can do it', is simply saying 'believe in dreams, you can achieve it'.

Therefore, spells and footwork, gestures, and even other auxiliary means are all designed to allow people to learn to master and control energy as soon as possible, so as to cast spells and cast swords, guns, swords, and shields. If you can use your energy to forge weapons and master certain hand-to-hand combat skills, you can almost leave Kama Taj and go to the Three Great Temples.

However, this does not mean graduation, it is just an assignment, and it is still necessary to return to Kama Taj from time to time to learn more advanced magic, the difference is that if you don't understand something, you can consult the guardian of the temple, and the guardian of the temple will also hold classes from time to time to teach magic skills.

Naturally, at that time, I was already able to see the real world with my 'heart and eye', and I would not be confined to science, and I would be able to use convenient modern electrical appliances, and I didn't need to live like primitive people, of course, there was a mage who pursued, or would continue to live the life of an ascetic, the representative figure was Master Hamil, who was still in the mountains at home, always wearing a robe, holding his temples...

Walking out of the library, not far away is the vast arena, hundreds of apprentices are practicing basic gestures, footwork, and of course, combat drills under the guidance of the occult mage, after all, Kama Taj's characteristic is a melee mage.

Swords, guns, clubs, axes, hooks and forks, eighteen kinds of weapons, everything is here, it can be said that there is anything, this is what Grell wants to complain about the most, fortunately, in the wizard's magic skills, there are a lot of long-range attack spells, and he also has knight firearms, otherwise he will really play melee combat thoroughly.

Casillas, who was fighting against an arcane mage, saw the king and Greel, who was dressed in a very different costume from Kama Taj behind him, and his eyes were immediately attracted, staring at the stack of books that Greer was holding in his hand, it was definitely a magic book for the Supreme Mage, absolutely...

'Bang! ’

Casillas was kicked in the chest, flew out upside down, and fell heavily on the stone paved ground, snorted, a touch of pain appeared on his face, and the secret mage Hal on the opposite side withdrew his foot, and the luster on the surface of the weapon in his hand also converged, and said in a deep voice: "Casillas, focus when fighting. ”

"I'm sorry." Casillas said this, but his eyes involuntarily turned to Greer on the sidelines of the martial arts arena, especially the stack of magic books he was holding in his hand.

Mage Hal followed Casillas's gaze, saw Grell and the king at a glance, and said, "It's hard to believe that you are so young unless you see it with your own eyes. ”

Grell and the king had already turned the corner, so that Casillas could no longer see him, and then he slowly got up from the ground and said coldly, "Have you forgotten the Ancient One?" Don't be fooled by their appearance. ”

"Immortality." Master Hal couldn't hide the yearning and envy between his words, it was a well-known thing that Master Gu Yi had lived for a long time, but no one knew her specific age, she had strong strength, and she would always think of other things.

"Immortality... A secret that only they know. Casillas said sullenly, the long weapon in his hand shrunk back one by one, turning into an unpretentious metal block, which he put into his pocket, and unwillingly turned his head to look at the direction in which Grell disappeared: "Generations of cultivating mystical masters, generations of death, only they can live forever." ”
