Chapter 120: The Ancient One's Entrustment

Leaving a bunch of heavy information, Lu Xiao did not continue to pay attention to the complicated and heavy feelings of the Avengers members, and hurriedly returned to Kama Taj and handed over the follow-up battle to the Avengers themselves.

Gu Yi did not interfere with Lu Xiao's departure, but as soon as he returned, he was immediately urged to enter the library to read the book of Cagliostro.

Lu Xiao, who was semi-forced into a state of retreat, turned a deaf ear to what was going on outside the window, and only later learned through the connection between Wanda and Pietro that the Avengers had successfully defeated and thwarted Ultron's plot.

Without the help of Wanda and Pietro, Ultron was left to set everything up on his own, and the small town of Skovia suffered far less damage than it had in its history.

Lu Xiao was not a fairy-level scholar like Strange, and he couldn't easily understand the mystery of the Book of Cagliostro in just one night of reading.

However, thanks to the blessing of the mysterious talent, Lu Xiao's progress is definitely not slow.

Under the attention of Mordo and Wang and other senior mysticists, Lu Xiao only took a week to roughly understand the mysteries of the Book of Cagliostro under the guidance of the Ancient One.

As the ancient one said, this book records the mysteries of time in the Marvel Universe, and tells the theories and manipulation methods of countless parallel worlds and timelines in a very difficult magical language.

When entering the second half of the practical operation stage, Lu Xiao finally temporarily obtained the right to use the Eye of Agomoto in the hands of Gu Yi, and used this artifact to manipulate the mapping ability of the parallel world, and temporarily restored the pages torn by Casillas.

The pages that Casillas took away do contain a way to communicate with the dark dimension and summon Dormammu, but the consequences are recorded at the end of the book.

This made Lu Xiao's desire to complain skyrocket: "Why do you write the precautions at the end?" Shouldn't this kind of thing be made clear at the beginning? ”

Gu Yi also felt a little amused by this: "Don't ask me, I didn't write this book, it is said that it was written by the first Supreme Mage Agomoto, maybe the narrative method of that era was different from that of modern times." ”

Lu Xiao mourned in her heart for Casillas, who read and didn't ask for much understanding, "Poor child, I hope you won't cry when you know the truth." ’

……

"Boom!"

Just a few days after Lu Xiao finished studying the Book of Cagliostro, a violent roar suddenly came from Kama Taj's teleportation hall.

Mo Du, who was guiding the apprentices in the square to practice in the morning, changed his face: "Come here today, all the apprentices will go back to their rooms to study on their own, and the other mystics will come with me." ”

At this time, Lu Xiao happened to use the Eye of Agomoto under the supervision of the Ancient One, trying to restore a gray rabbit skeleton into a living rabbit.

It is relatively easy to manipulate the time of dead things, but this realm involving life is more complex.

At the moment of Lu Xiao's success, Gu's face flashed with a relieved smile, and the explosion also happened to come at this time.

"It's finally begun."

The Ancient One retracted his smile and quickly changed his gestures, sending a secret signal to the infinite universe in an extremely stealthy way.

"The New York Temple has fallen, the barriers to protect the planet have been weakened, and Dormammu should start to do something."

Gu Yi flashed with a strange light, as if he was calculating something: "Lu Xiao, you and Wang and Mo Du rushed to the London Temple to support Daniel, and the Hong Kong Temple was handed over to me." ”

"Yes, Supreme Mage."

After Lu Xiao saluted, he planned to take off the Eye of Agomoto from his neck.

"No, you can keep it for now."

Ancient One stopped Lu Xiao's movements: "Casillas is likely to choose the London Temple first, he and his fanatical followers should have absorbed the power from the dark dimension, and you may need it in the next battle." ”

"This ......"

Lu Xiao hesitated a little: "It's better for you to keep the Eye of Agamotto, in case Dormammu launches a raid before the temple collapses......"

"Hehe~"

Gu Yi smiled confidently: "You don't think that my strength depends on the Eye of Agomoto, right?" You need it more than I do, go ahead, don't worry about me. ”

"Yes, Supreme Mage."

"Boom!"

When Lu Xiao, Mo Du and Wang arrived at the London Temple together, the hall built in the downtown area was already full of smoke.

The fanatics led by Casillas completely suppressed Daniel and the others, and judging by the majestic magic that emerged when they cast their spells, these betrayers who had taken refuge in Dormammu had indeed gained the power bestowed by the Lord of Darkness.

"Casillas!"

Seeing that Daniel, who was covered in blood, was about to be defeated, Mordo immediately removed the scepter of the Court of Life on his back, activated the power of the magic weapon, and threw it at Casillas, who was holding an invisible spell blade.

"Smack!"

The whip of the Scepter of the Court of Life was wrapped around Casillas's weapon, and under the wrestling between the two sides, Mordo could not bear the strength of the other.

"Drink!"

Casillas pulled the whip and threw Mordo out, and even though he used the Jumping Boots to steal his strength in mid-air, Mordo still looked a little embarrassed when he landed.

Lu Xiao frowned and looked at the London Temple, which had been defeated on all fronts: "King, you go and deal with those black-eyed miscellaneous fish, and Casillas will hand it over to me and Mordo to solve it." ”

Wang quickly condensed the magic circle in his wrists, and briefly reminded Lu Xiao: "Okay, you have to be careful, Casillas is not the same person he used to be." ”

As the king said, the attackers, including Casillas, were very different from normal people in terms of their physical characteristics.

The area around their eye sockets had completely turned into an eerie hue of deep purple and almost black, and a spell rune representing Dormammu appeared on their foreheads, and it was through this rune that they were supposed to absorb endless magic from the dark dimension.

As a veteran mystic who was highly regarded by the ancients, Mordo's fighting style was almost in the same vein as the ancient one.

After blessing himself with a variety of buffs, Mordo wielded the Staff of the Court of Life and engaged in hand-to-hand combat with Casillas, who was also from the same sect, and the scene of the battle between the two did not look like a spellcaster at all.

For these mystics who were distorted by the ancient Celtic flow spells, Lu Xiao had no way to complain, after all, his own fighting style was also not related to the orthodox mage.

Judging from Mordo's match-up with Casillas, both of them are playing more cautiously, and it should not be so easy to tell the winner in a short period of time.

Since this was the case, Lu Xiao simply turned on his breath to hide his whereabouts, and temporarily targeted the fanatical followers of Casillas.

The interior of the London Temple is Victorian-style and has a quaint three-story structure that connects the floors by a beautiful wooden staircase.

Lu Xiao squatted silently on the edge of the handrail facing the door in the hall on the third floor, patiently waiting for Casillas's subordinates to approach.

These fanatics, who had suddenly gained great power, had long since lost the cautious and secluded attitude of the mystic, and behaved very openly to the outside, wielding invisible spell blades with great vigour, forcing the mystics of the London Temple, who could not reach the length of the blades, to retreat one after another.

"You can't see the blade of the form, do you think it's the Wind King's enchantment......

Seeing the opportunity, Lu Xiao jumped down from the air, and the Hidden Blade in both hands popped out, stabbing into the necks of two fanatics standing back-to-back at the same time.

"Ugh!"

The vitality of these two people was beyond Lu Xiao's imagination, and they still retained a certain amount of mobility even when their necks were pierced.

Seeing the opportunity, Lu Xiao quickly retracted his Hidden Blade, turned his fist into a palm and pressed it on the heads of the two at the same time, forcibly pressing their unbalanced bodies to the ground.

"Boom!"

With two loud noises that almost completely overlapped, the two people who had suffered violent concussions in the heads finally stopped struggling, and their bodies twitched into a dying state.

"As long as you don't fight them head-on, no amount of weird blades can hurt anyone."
