Chapter 144: The other party doesn't want to talk to you
Both Tony and Ethan are characters who do what they think of, so when one says they want to teach and the other is willing to learn, they start the introductory course almost immediately.
To Tony's displeasure, Ethan deliberately called a little girl named Shirley Birkin and asked her to show her how the mage's introductory course should be conducted.
"I think you're deliberately finding a reason to entertain me. ”
Ethan shrugged his shoulders, he didn't deny it at all.
"Shirley's talent is not very good, but she has been learning from me for a while, she knows the basics very well, and she can use simple enough descriptions to make you better understand what to do. ”
"Why do you have to use 'plain' language?" Tony thinks this is despising his own intelligence, can't he understand something profound?
"Because there are a lot of things that are difficult to describe in magic, in fact, I was also confused at the beginning, and I was lucky to go through the initial doubting stage, and then I have been making progress through the help of some special props, such as how people like you who have never been in contact with it can overcome those doubts, I don't know much. ”
Ethan first exercised his control of mental power with the space-time pointer, which was a shortcut, and later he avoided many difficulties with this foundation.
For example, Tony's situation of starting from scratch will encounter many problems that he doesn't know how to explain, especially since Tony is still a scientist, and he will resist too idealistic theories from the bottom of his heart, so let Shirley explain, he may understand faster.
"So what do you do?"
Tony looked at Ethan with suspicion, this thing can't just be here to watch his own excitement, right?
"Of course she's here to help you learn magic, you don't think Shirley has the power to teach you, do you?" ”
By the way, they also practiced together, and Ethan won't say this.
The game that Shirley had played was once again used by Ethan, and this time Tony needed to exercise his mental control by playing games, and Shirley was happy to share her game experience.
I have to say that Ethan's arrangement is indeed correct, Shirley explained in more simple and straightforward words how to control her mental power, and then contact the puzzle pieces of this magical energy through mental power, so as to complete the game.
Ethan, of course, is not just watching the excitement, in fact he has more to do.
With Tony learning magic, he began to experiment with the integration of the various materials in his hands and then developed further potions.
Now that his companions have completed the initial 'accumulation', it is time for Ada to have already exceeded his original expectations and should be further strengthened or taught.
After getting the Desperation Virus from Tony, Ethan discovered that Logan could also add some of his attacks: the Desperation Virus could cast high temperatures, if Rogan added heat to his claws......
Considering that the desperate virus still has the ability to explode, Logan can cut off his arm as a bomb in a crisis, and the carthing's arm can grow back anyway.
"It's brutal!"
"What brutality?"
To Ethan's surprise, Tony was still able to pay attention to his side, and when he looked up, he found that Tony had completed the puzzle without much time from beginning to end, and he didn't look like he had any loss of mental energy.
"Done?"
"Of course, who do you think I am? I'm Tony Stark, the smartest man on earth......!"
Although there is an element of bragging, Ethan also has to admit that Tony is indeed a genius, he learns magic faster than he can imagine, and he understands more and more why the Ancient One would list Tony as one of the candidates for the Supreme Mage.
In the days that followed, Ethan mixed new potions and taught Tony about magic.
At the beginning, Shirley was reviewing old knowledge and consolidating her foundation.
Soon she began to learn new things with Tony, but by the time Tony had already started to try to control the magical energy, Shirley still had a headache in the basic course!
Shirley had been studying for a while, and Tony had only been learning for a few days. The gap in talent is so obvious, and the profession of mage is a special test of talent.
The poor little girl was hit badly, and if it weren't for her tenacious personality, she would have cried and gone to her mother if she were an ordinary little girl.
In order to appease Shirley's wounded heart, Tony had to take Shirley to the playground for a day, and on the same day, the newspaper reported that 'suspected Tony Stark's illegitimate daughter' appeared, but finally Shirley did not let him treat him as a mortal enemy.
"It's a good thing you're old enough, otherwise Shirley would have to treat you as a lifelong enemy. ”
Tony spread his hands speechlessly, but the expression of 'I don't care about this kind of thing at all, I've encountered it too many times since I was a child' was really uncomfortable.
In the busy study period, Ethan also went to the shipyard acquired by Tony to take a look, Prince Eugen was built much faster than expected, and it is estimated that when he returns from the alien planet, the ship can be launched for all-round testing.
Ethan knew that after he had helped Tony resurrect his parents, he seemed to have invested more to speed up the construction of the ship, just so that he could use the new ship as soon as possible.
If he hadn't known that Ethan's next need would not be a larger surface ship, but a spaceship that could travel in space for a long time, had a certain amount of resource gathering capabilities, and could enter and exit the atmosphere, he would have used his break to start designing the originally planned version of the Bismarck.
Now with one less task, Tony began to devote more energy to his studies, which made his learning speed even more amazing, and even began to be exposed to arcane energy with the help of Ethan.
"Be very careful with arcane energy, as it could provoke the Burning Legion. ”
He had to say that, Tony was crazy at times, and if he didn't bring the Burning Legion out to scare him, Ethan wondered if this guy would be able to make a sunwell or something.
It's nothing for a mage to break through the spatial barrier and extract arcane energy for his own use, and if a large amount of arcane energy is used, and even the Marvel Cinematic Universe becomes a new home for arcane energy, then the Burning Legion is very likely to be aware of the existence of this world.
Knowing the dangers of arcane energy, Tony promised himself not to do anything crazy, and put away his playful mindset.
As the brilliance of the arcane light flashed on Tony's body, he also provoked the ancient one who arranged the 'afterma' in Kama Taj.
The Supreme Mage opened the portal and appeared next to Ethan and Tony, and was very surprised to see Tony's progress as he had already begun to learn magic.
"What a great talent. ”
Ethan had a deep enough understanding of Tony's talent during this time, and he agreed with this sentence very much, and after a brief chat with Gu Yi, Gu Yi looked at the arcane energy wrapped around Tony's body, and took some of the leaked energy back to Kama Taj to study.
Tony is not learning any spells now, he is still learning how to control the energy through his mental power, which is currently summoned by Ethan, after all, the environment here is different from that of Azeroth, only then can Tony be exposed to and understand this magical energy from the beginning, paving the way for his later learning.
Allowing the magical energy to wrap around his body, it finally converged in the middle of his hands and condensed into a ball of glowing blue light, which then turned into bands of light and spread out, circling around Tony's body, and finally returning to the sphere along his arms.
All he had to do was to try to maintain this cycle so that the magical energy would not deviate from its established course or break the energy belt. Familiarize yourself with the nature of arcane through this practice while increasing your control over this energy.
Tony did a good job, although the light clusters were sometimes large and small, and the light bands flickered and flickered, but for those who were first exposed to energy control, they could not expect too much.
It's just that his current appearance has caused some fright to a few guests who suddenly came running: "Watfak! What's going on?"
Suddenly, it was the famous S.H.I.E.L.D. Chief Nick Fury, followed by old acquaintance Phil Coulson and Black Widow Natasha Romanoff.
Of course, they couldn't just break in, and they were joined by Ada and Pepper, who were leading the way to the backyard.
Ethan had expected this guy to come looking for him, and it had taken him so long to show up, but he didn't expect to bump into Tony practicing magic at this moment.
Because of the external influence, the sudden loss of control of the arcane energy left Tony's body, and under normal circumstances, this energy would spread into the air, and this energy was not enough to change the environment of this world, so these energies would be completely dissipated.
Ethan was standing here, he just beckoned, and the arcane energy that had just escaped Tony's control turned into a ball of light and was pinched in his hand, honestly no different from an ordinary ball of light.
It was because he had his own care that he didn't have to worry about someone suddenly appearing to disturb Tony, because it wouldn't cause anything bad.
The only bad situation is that Tony, who was disturbed from his cultivation, was very upset, looked at Nick Fury with a dark face, and then interrupted the other party before he could speak.
"You disturbed my cultivation, and I may lose the opportunity to become a great mage because of this, so I am in a very bad mood right now, and I don't want to talk to you!"
