Chapter 943: Watching the Heavens at Night, Pinch Your Fingers
Pushing open the door of Strange's room, Russell met the robot butler Sean, Strange's exclusive NS-3 model robot, except for Strange himself, Sean does not need to provide services to other mages, nor does he have to be responsible for them.
Theoretically, the Supreme Mage is also included, but the problem is that the USR company, which manufactures the NS series of robots, is opened by the Supreme Mage.
Russell: I can't imagine that even robots are my people!
"Honorable Supreme Mage, Greetings Sean."
Although it is only 0 and 1, plus a pair of lines and metal, the service attitude of the robot is really nothing to say, like a spring breeze, it will always make people feel at home.
"There's nothing to do with you, let's go down!"
"Understood."
In this way, the robot butler, who only provided services to Strange, abandoned his master and left at Russell's orders.
Strange was completely unaware of it, and stood intently at the table, holding the magic book in one hand and drawing circles on the Orb of Agamotto in the other, and the words in his mouth, as if he were casting a spell.
Russell stood aside with his hands folded on his shoulders, didn't interrupt without a sound, and just watched Strange cast a spell.
He knew what Strange was up to, and wanted to unlock the seal of the Orb of Agamotto and restore the Prophecy Crystal Ball to its original form.
It's a pity that this is not possible!
The shape of the Agamotto Orb is the same as that of an ordinary magic crystal ball, but its function is countless times more powerful.
First of all, it is a radar-like sensor, and when a magical event occurs anywhere on Earth, the Agomoto Orb will levitate and display the specific address of the magical event.
Dimensional invasion is also considered a magic event, and the orb is used to sense the arrival of the dimensional demon god, and the effect is much stronger than that of Kama Taj's magic enchantment.
Secondly, the Orb of Agamotto is able to see through the essence of magic, allowing the user to easily crack enemy magic and use it for their own defense if necessary.
Finally, the Orb of Agamotto does have the ability to predict the future, which is the main reason why it was sealed.
Because of the strong ability to snoop, many bigwigs who don't want their whereabouts to be leaked are very dissatisfied with this orb, and as long as they find that the seal has been unlocked, they will take the initiative to stand up and seal it again.
Don't ask Russell why he knew, because he had tried to break the seal, and he had succeeded and failed.
He substituted the orb into the dark dimension, violently broke the seal on it, and as a result, he began to steal ...... Ahem, it was a peek into the origin of magic, and the orb was resealed.
I don't know who did it, but Russell thought the man was boring, and then the prophecy crystal ball was thrown into the bathroom by him...... Converted storage room.
By the way, Russell thinks that the reason why the Agamotto Orb was sealed in the first place must be because the previous owner didn't do anything good with it.
Who it is, he won't name names, after all, no one is at fault, and besides, everyone is dead, so let the past go with the wind!
"Strange, what kind of seal is this, I can't even tell at all......"
Strange picked up the Orb of Agomoth and looked it up and down.
The treasure cannot be unlocked, and it must be very depressing to change to an ordinary person, but this is not the case with Strange, in his eyes, this is the charm of magic, which makes people forget to sleep and eat.
"Don't think about it, you can't solve it if you want to."
Russell said out loud, the Agamotto Orb was sealed by the big guy in the dark dimension, he, the lord of the dark dimension, has no sense, and now Strange wants to unlock the seal, which is more difficult than Shu Dao.
"Hey, Supreme Mage, why are you here?"
Strange was shocked, didn't see the intimate butler left and right, and wondered: "Have you seen Sean?" It's really strange that he didn't remind me and forget it, and he didn't make you a cup of tea? โ
"Oh, Sean said it had a bad stomach and ran away!"
โ(O_O๏ผ )
Strange was speechless, knowing that the Supreme Mage had never been out of tune, but robots ate bad stomachs or something...... Don't say it's expired.
"Maybe the oil has expired!"
โโฆโฆโ
"Forget it, don't talk about this! Strange, it looks like you've found the relics of the Ancient One. Yes, people rely on clothes, and you feel very good when you wear this red cloak, as if you have matured all of a sudden......"
Russell looked up and down a few times, and said with infinite sadness: "There is also the Eye of Agomoto, the way you wear it reminds me of the photo of the Ancient One when he was leaving. โ
โญ(ยฐAยฐ`)โฎ
Strange shuddered when he heard this, and took the Eye of Agomoto off his neck and placed it on the table.
Russell clapped his hands and gave a thumbs up: "It's more like if you don't wear it, it's exactly the same as the photo that the ancient master hung on the wall!" โ
โโฆโฆโ
Strange blinked, re-attaching the Eye of Agamotto necklace, a forced smile twitching at the corner of his mouth.
He was about to ask Russell what he was doing, when he suddenly remembered something, and happily picked up the Agamotto Orb: "Supreme Mage, you came by such a coincidence, you must know this prophecy crystal, the treasure of the legendary mage Agamotto, can you unlock the seal on it?" โ
"Can't be solved!"
Russell shook his head again and again, patted Strange on the shoulder, and hated him: "Ancient One Mage, no, it was some unknown mage who used the powerful exploration ability of this orb to spy on the goddess taking a bath, and the result was ...... The orb was sealed, and the mage died. โ
(๏ผ ไนะดไน)
Strange glanced at Russell secretly, and didn't understand why the latter always counted the ancient mages in front of him, not to mention whether it was true or not, he was a new person, and he really didn't want to participate in the grievances between the supreme mages.
"Supreme Mage, did you come to me for something?"
Strange decides to get straight to the point, which may be rude, but it's better than knowing too much.
"Friendly reminder to you, I just watched the sky at night, and I pinched my fingers and counted that Kama Taj had a bloody disaster......"
Russell looked up at the ceiling, his expression was solemn, and after a moment he sighed: "One star is dim, and the next star is lit, this is the replacement of the old and the new, which means the end of one era and the beginning of another." โ
Just?
Strange held an old groove in his chest, and couldn't help but spit it out: "Supreme Mage, it's not dark yet, how can you watch the sky at night?" โ
"Oh, I just watched the sky at night in the United States!"
โโฆโฆโ
Strange: That makes sense!
It is daylight in the eastern hemisphere, and it is night in the western hemisphere, and Russell's night observation of the sky is reasonable, evidence-based and scientific, and Strange is not convinced.
His face was puzzled: "Supreme Mage, you and I are talking about this...... I don't know it's useful, I should spread the word and make all the mages of Kama Taj vigilant. โ
"It's useless, although there are countless changes in the future, there is only one established destiny. Just like birth, old age, illness and death in ordinary people, diseases can be avoided, but aging cannot be prevented, and death is always the end of life. โ
"But we are mages, and it is very simple to prolong life......"
"I'm just using an analogy."
Russell looked at Strange and said, "The established fate cannot be changed, and telling others will only involve innocent people who were originally out of the way, so the fewer people who know about this kind of thing, the better." โ
Strange's eyes widened, why did he tell him if that was the case?
"I wasn't going to tell you at first, but the photo of you and the Ancient One when he left was too similar, so I subconsciously blurted it out." Russell explained.
โโฆโฆโ
Strange held his breath and let his mind enter a meditative state, so that the unscrupulous Supreme Mage could not see anything.
"You can see, you say I'm unscrupulous!"
โโฆโฆโ
"Okay, I'm not going to tease you, I'm here mainly to see what relics you've harvested, and that's ...... now"
Russell touched his chin and paused for a moment before speaking, "You shouldn't have packed all the relics of the Ancient One Mage, right?" โ
No, I didn't take the photo of the Ancient One!
Strange pursed his lips and smiled tactfully: "There are too many relics of the teacher, I want to bring them back and sort them out slowly, and after they are sorted out, I will return the items that I have no chance to leave intact." โ
"Whatever you want, these relics will only fall to ashes anyway."
When Russell said this, his face straightened, and he said solemnly: "Because you know the changes in the heavens, you are implicated in cause and effect, and if you don't deal with it properly, I'm afraid that you won't end well." โ
โโฆโฆโ
"Don't panic, it's just a lifetime of nine deaths, and you still have a 10% chance of stealing your life."
Russell pointed to the ancient one's relics: "Don't waste time on the Agamotto Orb, other magic items should be familiar as soon as possible, especially the Eye of Agamotto, this magic weapon is very powerful, with the power of the 'All-Seeing One', and has a powerful suppression effect on the undead, demons and other hellish and dark creatures." โ
"In addition, it also has many magical abilities such as seeing through disguises, breaking illusions, and spying on the mysteries of dimensional magic, so hurry up and master it, this is your vitality."
Ignoring Strange's depressed face like Xiao Zuo and Xiao You, Russell continued: "Give you three days to study by surprise, and memorize all the magic books collected by the ancient one mage in your head, it doesn't matter if you learn it or not, you must remember it first." โ
"And what about three days later?"
"Get out of here and go to New York in three days, you're too bad to implicate Kama Taj."
Russell patted Strange on the shoulder: "What is there to eat and drink, and there are girls who want to sleep, hurry up and do it, don't take chances." โ
Speaking of this, Russell handed over a credit card: "I have the affection to sponsor you with 10 million US dollars, take it and spend it, after all...... Alas, I didn't say anything, just take it as my thoughts. โ
โโฆโฆโ
Strange took his credit card and looked at Russell's back humming a ditty with a bewildered expression.
Somehow, he suddenly remembered a book recommended to him by the king, "The Legend of Deification", which clearly stated that the person who should be robbed did not want to die, so he had to transfer the disaster to another person.
Considering that the two generations of Supreme Mages and the King were both from that country, he felt that he had fallen for the trick of the one who should be robbed.
