Chapter 237: Butterfly's Wings
In Kama Taj's library, there are thousands of books on magic. It's just that many of them are accounts of dark creatures. The history of magic, as well as the various black magic responses, various measures against otherworldly creatures, and so on. Spells that are truly formed are extremely rare.
This is also the weak link in the history of magic in this world. The first person to use magic was a wonderful person. Originally, he might have been able to go further. However, he later got the Eye of Agamotto. Although in Kama Taj's account, it was the first Supreme Mage who created the Eye of Agamotto. But Lin Xuan knew that it was pure nonsense.
The Eye of Agamotto is the Stone of Time. It is a regular aggregate left over from the fall of the previous universe. In fact, a mage can create. However, the Supreme Mage must have used some technique to stabilize the Time Stone. and developed a series of spells around the Stone of Time. The Stone of Time became his standard equipment, and gradually became known as the Eye of Agomoto.
The power of the Time Stone is enough to make any mage go insane. The first Supreme Mage was undoubtedly immersed in it. It was his luck that with the power of the Time Stone, he received the title of Supreme Mage. But it's not going to work in the wizarding world. He put all his experiences on the Time Stone, developing a series of spells that controlled time. However, these spells are too high-end, and they must be cast with the help of Time Stones. It's simply not something that other mages can learn.
The first mage, he left behind his own legacy and the Stone of Time. But obsessed with the Time Stone, he didn't realize that what he had left behind was too rough. And he also made a bad start, and every subsequent generation of Supreme Mages focused their energy on the Time Stone. That's why the magic system of the entire Marvel world has that kind of deformed state. The introductory and advanced spells in this world are too mismatched.
In film and television dramas, except for the Supreme Mage, a large number of other mages are purely soy sauce. Casillas, with a few dark believers, actually broke three temples in a row. Except for being blocked by Strange. Chance met with no particular resistance. It is enough to see the lack of high-end power. This is also the reason why the ancient one did not hesitate to use the power of the dark space to forcibly survive. Except for a renegade Cosilias, the mages of this generation really don't have the high-end combat power that they can handle. That's why when he met Strange, he cultivated him so dedicatedly. Because at that time, she may have reached her limit. If no successors can be found, it is estimated that the earth will be in danger.
The Ancient One was a man with a great long-term strategic vision. That's why she dared to try something new. But in her generation, invasions of all kinds began to become frequent. Face endless extraterritorial threats. The ancient one was already exhausted. No matter how wonderful she is, she can't spare the energy to improve the entire magic system.
Lin Xuan's arrival was actually an opportunity for her. But for Lin Xuan's identity as an outsider, she still couldn't let go. Lin Xuan knew this, so he just read books and experimented honestly. No extra moves were made.
Kama Taj's spell system changes are extremely simple, but on some of the levels, the application is also extremely deep. For example, the portal technology that Lin Xuan admired the most. Lin Xuan's phantom transformation had some extremely huge requirements for mana. His own magic power is strong, and his mental power is surprisingly high, so he can ignore this. But for the rest of the people, even if they learned Lin Xuan's phantom transformation, they couldn't run around the world like Lin Xuan.
Because there was no coordinate indication of the magic net, it was impossible to have such a powerful magic power squandered by Lin Xuan. So Lin Xuan's phantom transformation was just a magic during battle. And Kama Taj's portal is more strategic. All you need to do is pay a certain amount of mana to be able to maintain the portal. Theoretically, you can use this trick to teleport an army to any corner of the world. Even teleportation beyond Earth is not impossible.
Lin Xuan paid for the illusion shifter and exchanged the spell of the portal. And got a Xuan Ring that can protect himself from getting lost in the turbulence of space.
Most of Kama Taj's spells were quite simple for Lin Xuan. However, there were a large number of spells to communicate with dark creatures, but Lin Xuan was never able to succeed. Summoning dark creatures in human bodies requires a heart of service. It's like Casillas serving Dormammu, but if you let Lin Xuan believe in an unknown dark creature, you might as well kill him. Therefore, Lin Xuan secretly tried many times, but none of the dark creatures responded to him. Most of the creatures from another world felt it, and Lin Xuan harbored great malice towards them in his heart. Coupled with the amazing aura on Lin Xuan's body, it was already far away. This made Lin Xuan's plan to find a creature from another dimension to study it fall through before it even started.
The Ancient One mage sensed his movements. She was furious for a moment.
"Do you know what it means to summon dark creatures in this world? Any creature of darkness that escapes into the human world can have disastrous consequences. ”
"Actually, they're going to come anyway, aren't they? Otherwise, the world would not need the Supreme Mage, and there would be no need for Kama Taj. Ancient One, look at these apprentices around you. Most of them have never faced an alien creature. In fact, when the battle comes suddenly, you think they can make a difference. You may not be able to cast even the simplest spell. You protect them too well, and there is no way for a mage who has not experienced a battle to protect the world. They can't even protect themselves. ”
"You want to actively summon dark creatures to train? That's too dangerous. They can't fight those things yet. ”
"If they don't try, they'll never be able to fight it. Maybe one person can't. But there are dozens of them here. At least let them know how to fight. ”
Lin Xuan was ordered to stop his experiments. But Lin Xuan noticed that Gu Yi's expression had loosened a little. In desperation, Lin Xuan could only return to the library and continue to flip through the materials. I plan to accumulate theories first, wait until I leave, and then continue experimenting.
Lin Xuan started his own scholar mode and devoted all his experience to learning the various spell techniques of Kama Taj. And the wars and turmoil in the world continue, and history moves along a predetermined trajectory. However, there have been some minor changes in it.
Steve Rogers still followed his original trajectory and became a super soldier. Nothing looks like it's changed. Except that Rogers was always staring at the ring on his hand in thought. Because he already felt the difference in that ring. Thinking of what the mysterious man said, Steve had a vague guess that seemed absurd. This ring seems to be able to transform an emotion such as courage and firmness into strength.
This is the wings of a butterfly from another time and space in this world. As for the impact, maybe not much. But at least butterflies have left their mark in this world.
