Chapter 70: Succession, Influence, Embassies.
New York Temple.
The Ancient One Mage can be regarded as Uchiha Itachi's teacher, but because the time of acquaintance is too short, it is difficult for him to feel how sad he is about the death of the Ancient One Mage, at most it is just melancholy.
He was sad that even a god-like powerhouse like the Ancient One Mage couldn't escape the fate of death in the end.
After being stunned for a few minutes, Uchiha Itachi walked down the stairs and came to the inside of the temple, where the Ancient One had already told her that the next Supreme Mage would take over with the Eye of Agomoto.
Naturally, Master Oni saw it, and although he was surprised by the person's age, he still saluted respectfully: "Venerable." ”
"Hmm...... She's in a hurry, and I don't know a lot of things yet, so you just follow the original system first, by the way, where's Kama Taj? How do I get there? ”
"Your Holiness, please follow me." Mage O'Neill led the way.
Hong Kong, New York, and London, all three temples have constant portals that lead directly to Kama Taj.
Just a wall away, but it has spanned thousands of miles, and this is the charm of the portal.
As soon as Uchiha Itachi entered Kama Taj, several corpses caught his attention.
"What's going on?" O'Neill was shocked.
"It was His Holiness who ordered them, and they colluded with Dormammu, and they were innocent of death." Mordo said respectfully.
"I see, but the Venerable has just passed away, and this is the designated successor of the Venerable."
"I have seen the Venerable, my name is Mo Du, and I am a disciple of the previous Venerable." Mordo, though surprised, agreed.
"Hello." Uchiha Itachi nodded to indicate that he had seen it, and he was more interested in the library here than the mage in front of him, and there might be countless ancient secrets.
…
The Government of the United States strongly condemns Wakanda's unreporting and is concerned about Wakanda's portal technology, which undoubtedly violates the airspace rights of the United States and will bring unrest to the world.
If this kind of thing had happened before the alien invasion, it would definitely have been seen as a signal for a declaration of war, a blatant invasion of the airspace of a sovereign state, and Wakanda would have a hard time arguing.
In the end, Wakanda had to turn to the Templars in the hope that they would be able to disperse their firepower a little. If possible, portal technology could be publicized to help Wakanda clear its name.
A large number of media outlets regard Wakanda as a lackey of the aliens, and they are in harmony with the aliens.
Wakanda has released the final footage of a large number of unmanned warplanes, proving Wakanda's determination to protect the planet.
But he could not explain why 1,000 warplanes suddenly appeared in the skies over New York, before the portal was opened. Wakanda seems to have known that aliens are about to invade and has prepared in advance.
Countries around the world are very cautious about the technology of portals, after all, no one will know which country's airspace this portal will appear in the next time.
Another reason for Wakanda's opening up was to absorb talent from all over the world, but now that there is such a serious political blunder, everyone is starting to wait and see.
This time there was only a war of public opinion between the major powers, after all, the entire human race has lost more than 1 billion people, countless domestic animals, and wild animals are also among them, and no one dares to start a war lightly in this situation.
Reassuring the people in the country is the top priority, and this huge disaster has left countless people immersed in pain; In addition, countless small countries have collapsed, and the "country" that was originally a war-torn area has changed political power and the people are struggling to make a living.
The people have no time to worry about the affairs between countries.
What they are most worried about now is whether the insurance will pay or not? Alien invasion, is this a natural disaster or a man-made disaster? What about extraterrestrial superviruses?
In addition to insurance, people in many countries even have to worry about what to eat next and what to do tomorrow.
The supernatural events caused by the Ancient One and Odin have also caused many more cults on Earth. Whenever something happens that science can't explain, people always look elsewhere for comfort and hypnosis.
Countries have tried their best to stop the spread of cults. S.H.I.E.L.D. has reason to suspect that this cult incident is related to Hydra.
Although S.H.I.E.L.D. already has a large list of Hydra, this natural and man-made disaster has caused heavy casualties among S.H.I.E.L.D. and Hydra at the same time.
There weren't many reliable forces that S.H.I.E.L.D. could use, and now it was even worse, even if they wanted to carry out a net collection operation, they couldn't do it at all.
…
Three days later.
In Kama Taj's library, the Uchiha Itachi and the shadow clones are hungry for knowledge.
The portals of mages are extremely dangerous, and they have very high requirements for the user, not only in terms of talent, but also in terms of heart. (The portal is too malleable, I don't want to introduce it, and it's easy to collapse.) )
A day ago, he also met an "acquaintance" in Kama Taj, Wang Fatzi and Master Wang. The two had said hello before, so Wang Fatzi naturally became a messenger, and by the way, he helped Uchiha Itachi learn more about the organization of the Templar Mage.
That afternoon, a portal appeared in the "designated area of the portal" of the library, and Wang Fatzi's voice came from inside: "Venerable, the people outside do not know the origin of the golden particles, and there are many cults that have developed rapidly and harmed the masses. What should I do? ”
Uchiha Itachi was stunned when he heard this, he was obsessed with reading these days, but he didn't care much about the outside world. But he had little experience in dealing with this kind of incident, so he asked rhetorically, "What do you think?" ”
"I believe that this is a matter of merit for the Venerable Ones of the previous generation, and it should not be used as a means for the cult to deceive people's minds, and it should be dealt with severely."
"Come, king, and tell me why the temple is not open to the world. Wouldn't it be better if more people learned the secret method? ”
"Venerable, of course, the more mystical mages, the better, but people's hearts are unpredictable, if a spell like a portal is used by someone with a heart, the consequences are unpredictable, and I am afraid that the harm will outweigh the benefits."
"What if we restrict advanced spells such as portals, mirror spaces, and out-of-body souls? You just need to teach them to master energy, such as changing into a shield, changing into a sword or something, how? ”
"Does such an arcane mage still make sense?"
"If we want to open up, these will make sense, at least it won't make people think that we are self-cherished, and we will know the dangers of the popularization of high-level spells, coupled with our prestige and strength, we should have a lot to do."
"Personally, I think that more people should be invited to discuss the matter of opening the temple."
"It's okay, then it's not open for now, but at least let people know that there is an organization like ours, and all those cults will be cleared, so how about creating a sect with our organization? It is not a foreign institution, and it is possible to set up an institution similar to an embassy in each country to talk directly to the state. ”
"It should be feasible, then let's get rid of those cults first and correct the name of our temple."
"Well, by the way, the ancient master once said that there will be mutants in the world, I have never known what mutants are, what is abnormal outside recently?"
"There is nothing unusual for the time being, as soon as there is news, I will immediately come and inform His Holiness. One more thing, Wakanda wants us to help them clarify that they are not having a good time now, strictly speaking, the previous Venerable Ones have made them miserable. ”
