Chapter 57: The Rescue Plan
Patch looked at the Ancient One in surprise, his blue eyes full of surprise.
The Book of the Emperor is not a simple and basic magic book, this book is also known as the Book of Light, and it is one of the three supreme magic books along with the Book of Cagliostro, which explains the laws of time.
And this book is also the opposite of the "Book of Dark Gods", created by Emperor Weishan, one of the legendary three gods of magic, and specially composed to counterbalance the evil forces of the dark world.
Legend has it that this tome of supreme magic has long since been lost, at least as far as Patchy knows. So now after seeing this "Book of the Visan Emperor" in Kama Taj's library, Patch couldn't help but look very surprised.
In the midst of the surprise, Patch's eyes couldn't help but show a hint of covetousness.
After seeing Patch's surprise, the Ancient One couldn't help but smile slightly, nodded and responded, "Yes, Mr. Mevis, Kama Taj's library contains most of the magic books from ancient times to the present, and almost everything here is except for the Dark Divine Book. ”
Of course, the covetous look that Patch revealed was naturally also in Gu Yi's eyes, only to see Gu Yi's brows condensed slightly, and reminded Patch half-jokingly: "It's just that Mr. Mevis, you don't seem to need the book of 'The Book of Emperor Weishan' to enhance your strength!" After all, the responsibility of resisting the dark world's erosion of the earth should not fall on you for the time being. ”
After listening to the ancient one's words, Patch couldn't help but be stunned, but then he immediately reacted.
After shaking his head slightly, throwing away the greed for the Book of Emperor Weishan in his heart, Patch chuckled lightly and turned his head to look at the bald mage Ancient One.
"Indeed......"
Patch grinned lightly and said out loud, "With the Ancient One mage here, I don't seem to need to force the high-level magic recorded in the Book of the Wizard Emperor in pursuit of power, and I haven't fully mastered the deep magic in the Wizard's True Solution?" ”
"Hmmm......"
Gu Yi nodded lightly in response, and then opened his mouth again and said, "Mr. Myvis, it's good that you can think like this, and you don't forget your original intention of coming to Kama Taj this time. ”
"The mystery of time in the Book of Cagliostro is really worth studying, after all, no matter how powerful the power is, it is difficult to fully become your own ability if you can't master it thoroughly."
As he spoke, Gu raised his eyelids slightly, stared at Patch with a pair of piercing eyes, and continued with a solemn face: "I think you should be able to understand this, Mr. Myvis, right?" ”
"Of course ......"
Pache bowed his head slightly, and said in a deep voice: "Pursuing the supreme truth of the universe is my first pursuit, and as long as I can understand the nature of the laws of the universe, power will follow. ”
"So Ancient One, you don't have to worry about it at all."
"After all, Mr. Myvis, you have such an amazing talent, as long as you keep moving forward according to your heart, your future magical path will definitely never end. I just reminded you that I just want you not to go astray by indulging in shallow power. ”
Gu Yi nodded slightly, and after seeing the change in Patch's eyes, he spread his hands and continued to speak: "It's just that it doesn't seem necessary now." ”
After hearing the Ancient One's words, Patch just chuckled and glanced at her, and didn't say anything more.
After seeing Patch's silence, the Ancient One led Patch to give him a detailed and brief introduction to the placement of magic books in various aspects of the library.
After the introduction, the Ancient One immediately turned his head to look at Patch again.
"Mr. Mevis, now that you know something about Kama Taj's collection, I won't bother you, and you can enjoy them here."
As he spoke, the Ancient One turned and began to walk towards the library door, and Patch, who remained inside, could only hear the last words she had heard in her ears.
"Hopefully, Mr. Mevis will get what you want."
…………
And while Patchy was in Kama Taj's library and reading through the treasured magic books inside, a major incident happened at the US military base in Kunar Province, Afghanistan.
In the base's central headquarters, Oriana, wrapped in a black cloak, stood side by side with Coulson, and across from them was a black officer with a golden eagle on his shoulder.
"Agent Coulson, now that we've found the location where Tony was kidnapped, what should we do?"
I saw the black officer frowning and looking at Coulson, and asked loudly, "Is it to send someone to rescue Tony immediately?" Or do you want to observe for a while? ”
Coulson smiled and looked at the black officer, although the black officer seemed to be extremely calm on the surface, but Coulson still saw a little anxiety in his eyes, of course, Coulson knew that as one of the few friends of Tony Stark, it was normal for him to behave like this.
It's just that Coulson, who has dealt with many such incidents, knows that the more this time comes, the more he can't be in a hurry.
It's just that the black officer is also the person in charge of this rescue of Tony Stark, and Coulson thinks it's better to make the specifics clear to him.
"Colonel Rod, don't be too anxious, since the location of Tony Stark's abduction has been accurately located, and he is not in any danger to his life now, it is better not to rush it."
Staring at the black colonel Rod, Coulson said slowly: "And according to the report of our S.H.I.E.L.D. agents after the field investigation, it seems that there are still a lot of armed terrorists stationed in the place where Tony Stark is being held. ”
Swallowing lightly, Coulson continued: "And the place occupied by that group of armed terrorists is still a cave, Colonel Rhodes, you think that they have such a geographical advantage, it is absolutely impossible to confront us head-on, and if we want to attack that cave, we can only use the most stupid method to forcibly suppress them with numbers." ”
As he was speaking, Coulson's eyes suddenly froze, and he said in a low voice: "But if you do this, Colonel Rod, how many casualties do you think our personnel will have?" ”
"How many casualties will there be......
After listening to Coulson's words, Colonel Rhodes couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat on his forehead. The large number of armed terrorists and the geography that are easy to defend and difficult to attack are all two factors, and Rhodes does not have to think about it to know what the consequences will be.
And this is not a complete guarantee that Tony Stark will be rescued, so after Coulson's words, Rod suddenly came to his senses and shook his head secretly in his heart.
But after thinking about these questions, Colonel Rhodes quickly looked up at Coulson and asked aloud, "So Agent Coulson, what do you think we should do?" ”
"Tony Stark is what we have to save, Colonel Rod, you don't have to worry about that."
Coulson first spoke up to calm Colonel Rod, and then continued: "But we had better make some big changes in the way we rescue Mr. Stark, and we must also find out all the conditions in the cave where Mr. Stark is being held, and prepare accordingly. ”
"So let's put forward our respective considerations first, combine them with each other, and then choose the best rescue plan!"
