Chapter 360: Learning Chaos Magic (3rd Watch)

Crimson mana fluctuations seemed to be drawn out of the air and converged into the hands of the Scarlet Witch Subai, changing as her palms flipped in a myriad of ways. The red light flowed like a liquid, and it was like a colored air current.

"Harnessing chaos magic feels a little different from normal magic." Wanda tilted her head, thought about it carefully, and considered the wording, "What must be said...... It feels like you're manipulating the flow of water. Think of magic as flowing water, feel their shapes, feel their flow...... They can be turned into weapons to attack, or they can be seen as an extension of their own hands and feet, picking up something or attacking someone. ”

She said, waving her hands and demonstratively. Crimson spell fluctuations lifted the water dispenser in the corner of the room in the air, and the magic was like a huge net wrapped around the water dispenser, and it really felt like it was lifted with an extended palm.

"In the beginning, before you told me that this power was called 'chaos magic,' I thought of it as some kind of telekinetic superpower. The simplest and most intuitive way to use it is that I can use it to attack, defend, or move objects – including myself. Wanda continued, "After receiving the Scepter's energy development from Straker, I found that the power of this ability was further enhanced, and I gained the ability to use chaos magic to invade other people's minds, probe their emotions and thoughts.

In addition, after further training and development, my control of strength has become more precise. For example, I can make an object absolutely stable when it is lifted......"

As she spoke, she raised her palm, and a cloud of red light lifted a lab table full of instruments in the air, but the table remained parallel to the ground, and all the objects on the table did not move.

“...... And I was able to lift much heavier things than before. ”

Michael nodded.

He knew what she said later. He had always been concerned about all the current usage, power cap, and development of Wanda's chaos magic, and of course he knew her current mastery status.

Michael closed his eyes, calmed down, and began to form the seal as he chanted the mantra. The air flew with the flipping of his palm, leaving a light red line, as if it had been scratched by an oil paintbrush. Each line dissipated like a cloud of mist within seconds of being drawn, and it wasn't until the entire seal was completed that a faint crimson circle floated in the air for a moment.

In an instant, he felt that a certain level had been opened. It was as if a water pipe had been opened to the blocked wall, and magic was gurgling out of the pipe and pouring into his body.

It was a magic that was completely different from any previous plane's energy, chaotic, powerful, and ever-changing. A light red light flickered from his fingertips like a mist.

He did it. It was still weak, and though the rate at which he was pumping mana was still very low, he did succeed.

Due to her talent, Wanda's ability to extract the power of chaos magic was innate. But whenever she wanted to use her magic, as long as she had a thought, an idea, endless magic would rush immediately. But it wasn't so simple for others — like Michael — to use that power. This method is hidden in the Dark Book.

But given the negative impact the book can have on the reader's mind (and even more so rumored to erode the soul of those who read it), Michael didn't venture to read it himself. And Wanda, who has a special talent for chaos magic, doesn't need to take risks himself. Wanda herself memorized the methods in the book and then taught them to Michael, and he soon got started with the power.

Although the chaos magic he can cast is still weak for the time being, it doesn't matter. With his comprehension speed, as long as he continues to practice for a month, he should be able to become a good help.

"Let's start simpler." Wanda's fingers hooked casually, and the crimson magic rose in the air, holding up the mug on the table a few meters away. The mug swirled in mid-air like an acrobatic twist before falling back to the table with ease.

She withdrew her hand and stepped aside for Michael to try on his own. Michael summoned the magic of chaos and followed Wanda's example to poke out the magic, trying to lock on to the mug with his mind.

And then it turned out that it was far easier to see it than to do it.

Wanda lifted the cup in the air and only moved one finger - in fact, if it wasn't for the show, she wouldn't even have to move her fingers, it was just a mug, and she could lift it up with just a thought in her heart. But Michael tried it for a while, but the magic he unleashed always overflowed disobediently, and it was difficult to even lock it onto the cup.

It took him a while to finally control the energy and wrap the mug...... But at the moment when he had the idea of "lift it up", the magic power that had been condensed with great difficulty collapsed again.

"Poof." Wanda burst out laughing.

"How?"

"Ah, nothing." Wanda waved her hand, looked at him with strange eyes, and said with a smile, "It's just the first time I've found out, and it turns out that you can have such clumsy times...... Somehow, I'm a little bit happy. ”

In fact, Michael learned it as a monster at the same level, and he successfully summoned the chaos magic on the first attempt according to the spell, and then within ten minutes, he was able to let the magic power out according to his thoughts...... But even so, he is still a beginner after all, and it is inevitable that he will be "clumsy" when trying it for the first time.

As far as I can remember, Wanda never thought that the word could be associated with Michael.

She felt that the only words that could be used as a label for this man seemed to be "powerful", "wise", "neat", and "omnipotent". Suddenly seeing him like this, she felt a little happy in her heart, as if she was ...... It seemed to be a little closer to him.

"Of course I have had those times." Michael shook his head, "And I'm not as good at everything as you think." Rather, that's just a few things I'm good at. ”

"Where?" Wanda said, "Ask anyone in the whole base, and everyone thinks that the boss is an all-powerful person, and no matter what comes into your hands, it is reassuring." ”

"That's just because they don't know me." Michael said, pausing, looking thoughtfully away.

"In fact, that's one of my personal flaws." He said lightly, "I'm not good at communication. ”
