Thea is very happy, not only that she has finally won a victory, but more importantly, she can finally apply Meteor Punch to actual combat.

Compared to Ethan's wave of his hand and a meteor shower smashed over, Thea can only hit a meteor now, but it is always a good start, not to mention that the power of this move is there, and ordinary people can't stand a punch at all.

It can be said that if Miss Thea strikes at the criminals in Star City, if people who don't know her let her punch, then when Thea really swings her fist, this enemy won't even have a chance to dodge - the speed of the Meteor Fist ordinary people can't react at all, unless you predict in advance to make a dodge move, and it depends on whether Thea has reservations, otherwise it is impossible to dodge.

Coupled with a long period of combat practice, Thea's swordsmanship level has been greatly improved, and she also knows how to release those auxiliary spells at the right time. It can be said that Thea's basic training is over, and the next step is for her to practice slowly on her own, accumulating magic power and learning new things appropriately.

"So...... I've graduated?"

"Not yet. ”

Ethan looked at Thea, who was looking excited in front of him, turned over his hand and took a pendant similar to a dog tag and handed it over: "When you can really master this equipment, you will be considered a graduate." ”

Thea took the pendant handed over by Ethan, and the pattern on the rectangular dog-tag-like pendant on it seemed to be a Pegasus?

She remembered the warrior Ethan said about serving the goddess Athena, and that move was called the 'Pegasus Meteor Fist', which should have a certain connection.

"What is this?"

"The warriors who serve Athena are called Saint Seiyas, and the standard equipment of these Saint Seiyas is the Holy Clothes with magical powers...... The one you got is certainly not the original, it's an imitation that I made casually. ”

Although it is an imitation, it is a piece of equipment made by a god, even if it is an imitation, it cannot be regarded as ordinary equipment, although Thea does not know what this so-called holy clothes looks like and what magical effects it has, but she is still very happy to get such a 'gift', which proves that her performance is not bad?

Thea left happily, and Oliver continued to exercise, what happened in Star City last year made him realize his lack of strength, especially with Thea, a reference for obvious progress.

He also wanted to improve his strength, so that he could better solve all kinds of troubles in Star City, but as an ordinary person, he didn't know which direction he should work in now.

Strictly speaking, although Oliver's hands-on ability is not bad, it is not comparable to Batman, a guy who is open, except for the production of some special arrows, most of the equipment is purchased and produced, and he seriously lacks the ability to create independently.

He could have asked Tony for help, but Tony's suggestions were all more 'powerful' offensive weapons, and after that Oliver didn't look to Tony - if he followed Tony Stark's advice to strengthen himself, Oliver felt that he was not here to maintain law and order, but to destroy or occupy Star City.

Because Oliver has repeatedly 'vetoed' Tony's suggestion, Tony's temper is still talking to him now, which is already giving Oliver face: he himself wants to meet Green Arrow, even if he is unhappy, he can only endure it.

Compared to chatting with Oliver or something, Tony is now simply here to enjoy life, so he should come here for a vacation, and by the way, practice magic in this world where no one disturbs him, and discuss some of the problems he encounters with Ethan.

Tony is indeed a genius, but that doesn't mean geniuses don't have problems.

Usually he would figure it out on his own or conduct various experiments to get answers, but he didn't mind asking people for advice when necessary, not to mention that he didn't think there was anything wrong with Ethan, who taught him magic.

"So, there is energy in any universe. ”

"Yes. ”

Energy exists in any universe because the existence of the universe itself requires energy.

It's just that most of the energies are difficult to wield by mages, or that they don't fit in with the 'majority of ordinary mages', so they are not classified as generalized magical energies.

"But that doesn't mean that these energies can't be used for magic at all, as long as you become more aware of the nature of energy and have strong enough control over it, it can also be used to cast spells. ”

Just as Ethan understood back then: magicians are a group of people who use energy to achieve their own ends.

"I feel more and more that the mage is actually pursuing the essence of this world. ”

Anyone and everything is 'using' energy, and isn't it true that humans eat to consume energy that can be used for their own consumption?

"So the energy is omnipresent...... Tony was stunned, and suddenly remembered a line: "The Force is everywhere......"

Ethan smiled and pointed at Tony, who seemed to have thought of it too.

In Ethan's view, the so-called Force is also the energy that exists in the universe itself, and the practice of the Jedi is to feel, get close to, and use the various energies that already exist in the universe.

Ethan thinks that the Jedi's different understandings of the Force are correct: the energy contained in the universe has various qualities, and although the Jedi are in contact with the 'same Force' when they cultivate, they will also come into contact with the part of the Force that is closer to themselves according to their individual circumstances, so they will have a variety of interpretations of the Force.

"So I'm actually a Jedi Knight too?"

"Not necessarily, and I don't know anything else special about the Jedi, after all, I haven't really come into contact with this group. ”

Maybe Tony, who could only use 'a portion of the Special Force' in the eyes of the Jedi, was just a heretic who had gone astray, or maybe he was the same kind of person as the Sith who had fallen into the dark side of the Force?

"But the way you taught Thea to use energy is the Jedi theory of using the Force, right?"

"There is a reference. ”

Whether it is the Jedi or the Sith, their own strength is seriously constrained by the general environment, when the positive energy in the universe is more active, the more light-oriented Jedi will have the upper hand, and the Jedi can exert amazing combat power and do all kinds of magical things.

And when the dark side is more active, it's the world of the Sith.

Although practitioners who use the Force will be strengthened by the Force and gain a very long lifespan, it seems that no one can get rid of the suppression of the general environment, maybe this is because all Force users use the same energy source?

This situation is not a problem for Ethan, whether it is light or dark, it is the same in Ethan's eyes, he can use it as pure energy, and now he is not worried that these energies will 'pollute' his mental power and cause his personality to change.

If he is a Jedi, then he definitely belongs to the Unifying Force.

Thea is not good yet, she is too weak and fragile now, even with the special skills taught by Ethan, it is not good to be too contaminated with external energy, so Ethan taught her not to cross her limits at will at the beginning.

"This kind of energy use technique called the small universe always feels a little weird. ”

Tony was talking about the technique that Ethan taught Thea to use cosmic energy, or it can also be called the Force directly, and he found that although this method can be a good way to perfectly transform the energy gathered from the outside into pure energy that is harmless to the user, he found that there seem to be two 'back doors' in this technique.

"Yes, one is the Holy Vestment, and the other is God. ”

"Huh?"

Ethan explained briefly, and Tony realized that when using this power called the small universe, if he has the Holy Clothes, then it is equivalent to adding an external device, which can allow the user to gather more and more powerful energy, and convert it into usable energy faster and better, and will also share the burden caused by this part of the energy, ensuring that the user himself will not be damaged.

As for the so-called gods......

The effect is similar to that of the Holy Clothes, when an incomparably powerful being stands behind this warrior, providing it with a larger, purer and easier to drive energy, the power that this warrior can burst out will be very, very terrifying, and can be perfectly integrated into its own small universe.

"Wait...... Doesn't that mean ......"

"Yes, if this god is willing, he can lend his power again and again, and at the same time, influence the spirit and soul of this warrior little by little, so that he will become more and more loyal. ”

"Doesn't sound like something a decent god would do......"

Ethan spread his hands, in fact, he didn't mean to do this, but after tinkering with this power use technique, and opening two back doors casually, he found that there would be such a 'side effect'.

The gap between the realm of gods and ordinary warriors is too big, and when the power of gods can directly invade the spiritual world of this ordinary warrior, even gods who are not proficient in mind control can also make warriors closer to themselves or even become absolutely loyal subordinates through years of 'close contact'.

It is not difficult to understand that even if you have a pet, if you have a pet and contact it for a long time, and give it food and drink, this pet will be extremely close to its owner, not to mention this kind of unprotected spiritual contact, and get a powerful power from the god that can save your life? Even if this god does nothing, this warrior will be closer to the god he serves without realizing it.

"But Thea learned a modified version, and there is no second backdoor. ”

When Tony heard Ethan's words, he suddenly let out a sigh of relief.

"It's good that you're still the same Ethan I know. ”
