Chapter Ninety-Two: The Price of Magic, the Ancient One's Request

Luke was silent for a moment, if he compares the Marvel set to a game, then at this time, he is equivalent to making a camp decision.

As mentioned earlier, the sole purpose of the Three Sanctuaries and the Supreme Mage is to protect the earth.

More accurately, it should be against alien creatures outside of the main universe.

For example, the Annihilation Zerg in negative space, they once wiped out the Nova Legion - this is also a strange group with more than five people and a direct drop of 90% in combat power.

Then there's Dormammus in the dark dimension, a wretched guy who suffers from Doctor Strange's time loop and negotiates infinitely.

As well as those ancient gods, such as the god of dark arts, Sisos, the snake god Seth, and many more.

They existed four billion years ago, and they are all indigenous gods of the earth born in the ancient period, and they belong to the background board with few appearances.

The strength of itself is sometimes comparable to that of the five gods of the universe.

Due to the defense system established by the Three Sanctuary, it is difficult for these ancient bosses to interfere with the main universe.

So, they either leave Earth or go to other dimensional spaces.

And the reason why the Supreme Mage was able to fight against the Dimensional Demon God was mainly because the background was hard enough.

The three sanctuaries, the many mages of Kama Taj, the contract signed by them, and the Trinity of the Vishan Emperor, which is jointly worshipped, is composed of Oshutu, Agamatha, and Hoggs.

They are in charge of white magic.

Among them, Ao Shutu is the god of the ancients, and Gaia, the mother of the earth, is the same generation.

Agamodha was the first Supreme Mage she had trained.

So, in Luke's opinion, Earth is simply one of the most dangerous places in the universe.

Outside there is Asgard, the king of the gods, Odin, the peak powerhouse of the Heavenly Father level.

There are three sanctuaries inside, the ancient one, backed by the ancient gods.

Not to mention Thanos, even the invincible Star Swallower is coming, and it is estimated that he will fall down again.

"Why can't there be a third option?"

Faced with the Supreme Mage's last question, Luke's mind spun and quickly organized his words.

The ancient one must have had a way of determining the truth of the words, so the deception and lies against the heart are useless,

However, answer truthfully -

Luke suspected that after hearing this, the Supreme Mage would directly play a set of infinite time loops to put himself into the state of a ghost animal.

Therefore, he must not only give a reasonable answer, but also prove that his existence poses no threat to the earth.

"The third?"

Gu Yi was a little surprised, and asked kindly.

Most of the time, she was a very good-tempered mage.

It's not like the muscular reckless men in the sanctuary who carry flails, hammers, and axes, put on all kinds of defensive spells, and then scream and smash the demon's head.

The ancient one belongs to the moderates and will only reason with you.

The crude tactics of physical quantification are communication programmes used against the recalcitrant elements.

Judging from Luke's good attitude, it seems that he is able to communicate normally.

Therefore, the Supreme Master is willing to be a little more patient and listen to the other person's explanation.

"For example, unite, unite forces, end the war before it starts, nip the disaster in the bud!"

Luke's eyes flashed, and he tried to make a sincere appearance, and said, "The enemy of the Three Sanctuaries is the Hell Demon, the Dimensional Demon God. But there are far more people behind the scenes who are interested in the earth, and instead of waiting for the crisis to happen, why not take the initiative to develop and strengthen their own strength until they have the confidence to face any wind and waves? ”

The Supreme Mage shook her head, as the owner of the Time Gem, the forerunner of the future, she was more inclined towards conservatism.

Interfering too much with the timeline will only lead to worse results.

"The threat among the stars, of course, is Asgard, and Odin stands up to deal with it. The mission of Kama Taj and the Sanctuary is to hold their own lines. ”

Gu Yi replied with a smile.

She had dealt with the king of the gods a few times, and the strength of the other party could be called a strong one even in the multiverse.

With Asgard as a solid barrier to the Nine Realms, those alien empires and cosmic overlords who dare to provoke must seriously think about the consequences.

Long years ago, the great prestige of Odin and his daughter Hela, as well as the Valkyrie Legion, can be said to resound in the Nine Realms.

"But the twilight of the gods always comes, doesn't it?"

Luke reminded meaningfully.

The earth cannot rely on Odin and the Supreme Mage forever, and as veteran powerhouses, they will have to retire sooner or later.

When the time comes, Thor, who takes over the throne, and Doctor Strange, who is often kidney weak, may not be able to cope with the hidden crisis among the stars.

"General Cavill, you know a lot."

The Supreme Mage's eyes froze, like a sharp sword sweeping over.

She was now becoming more and more curious about Luke's origins, the ancient prophecy of Ragnarok, unknown to many in Asgard.

"So, what do you want to do?"

The Supreme Master asked with interest.

"It's okay to change your mind."

Luke seemed to be a tireless, hard-working interviewer to sell himself, and said in a firm tone: "First of all, the power of the three sanctuaries is very limited, and this should be true. ”

The Supreme Mage nodded, the number of mages was smaller than that of mutants.

It's not that the conditions for becoming a mage are harsh.

It's that in modern society, materialism is rampant, and there are not many ordinary people who are really willing to stay in Kama Taj for a long time to devote themselves to cultivation.

Generally, it is to achieve the goal, such as curing a terminal illness, and after stepping out of the shadow of the heart, he will return to this world.

In this regard, the Supreme Master did not stop it.

"We can expand the number of mages, for example, by setting up a specialized educational institution to provide vitality for the three sanctuaries."

Luke proposes an idea.

"This will greatly reduce the pressure on Kama Taj, and there will be enough manpower to deal with the demons of hell."

The Supreme Mage was silent for a moment, pondering the possibilities.

"Major General Cavill, there is a price to be paid for the use of magic, and once that forbidden knowledge is spread, it may cause great harm."

After a while, Gu Yi shook his head and said.

The magic of the Marvel Universe comes at a cost to the user.

The specific process can be seen as borrowing, and every time you use a high-level spell, it is equivalent to an extra bill.

White magic allows for installment payments, and the cost is not so terrible, so it is accepted by many of the mages of Kama Taj.

And black magic belongs to usury with nine in and thirteen out, which is very cool when used and miserable when it is returned.

"The price of magic can be circumvented, right? There's no need to stick to the old rules. ”

Luke tried to convince the Supreme Mage.

On the Marvel set, the Divine Monarch of Dom, who has a double cultivation of science and magic, has tried to use a machine to transfer the cost of spellcasting.

The Ancient One himself often picks up Dormammu's wool and secretly transfers the "bills" that need to be paid to the dark dimension.

"I'll think about it. This is the end of the quiz game. ”

The Supreme Master did not directly refuse, nor did he nod in agreement.

When it comes to something that is difficult to decide, she prefers to be patient for a while.

"General, I don't know if your arrival is good news or bad news. However, on my own behalf, you are welcome. ”

Supreme Master Shi Shiran stood up and gave a very modern handshake ceremony.

"Thanks, and hopefully one day I'll be able to set foot in Kama Taj."

Luke also stood up, the Ancient One was actually the best talker among the Supreme Mages of all ages.

If this is changed to the original Agomodha, it will be taken away directly.

"By the way, Ancient One, I have a question." Luke asked, somewhat curiously, "How can you tell if I'm lying?" Is it some special spell? ”

"Because of the same question, you answered four hundred and twenty-one times."

The Supreme Mage smiled, and the Eye of Agamoda that drooped from his chest glowed emerald.

A time loop was performed when I wasn't aware of it?

Luke smiled dumbly, it was indeed the Supreme Mage's style of doing things.

"By the way, General Cavill, I have a request for you."

Before leaving, the Supreme Mage showed a mysterious smile and said lightly: "The foreign population has to settle down permanently, and they always have to pay a little reward to do something good for this world. ”

"You say, right?"
