Chapter 22: Growth
(Thanks to Bandaru for your tips and support)
"Bell Bell~ This is my brainchild for three months, because it is a combination of magic and machinery, I named it [Magic Guide]!" Lyle clapped his hands, and the red cloth that blocked his vision turned into sparks, revealing a very sci-fi machine.
With no mentors, no teaching materials, just a bunch of magic guides of unknown origin, the Foundation's research team conducted a bunch of empirical summary experiments criticized by the three goddesses of fate, and naturally could not create new magic guides without theoretical results, so they could only put the valuable parts of the results of the experiments into use, such as equipping high-level agents with gamma-ray guns super-refined from SCP-914 (universal conversion machine).
However, Lyle was not satisfied, and after nearly two decades of hard work, he finally crossed the most difficult threshold to weave applications with combined magic, and became a member of the top craftsmen in the infinite dimension.
Of course, this is not a particularly bragging achievement, as there have already been top-notch craftsmen in this universe, as evidenced by the magic guides that were thrown to Earth as garbage when they were so precious.
Mei Li asked very cooperatively, "Master, what kind of magic guide is this?" ”
Like writing a thesis, before describing the purpose of the magic guide, Lyle first threw out the original intention of development: "Hmph~ Meili, your skin is too delicate, you must hate the process of changing clothes, right?" ”
“…… Not? Mei Li blinked, puzzled by this premise.
She doesn't hate changing clothes at all, but under the influence of Ah Ci, who loves to dress her up beautifully, she has also become concerned about her dress, and she will turn around in front of the mirror every day when she changes clothes.
"The little witch's favorite animation to reduce intelligence, isn't there a magical girl transformation?" The Witch Girl is currently playing with the Three Goddesses of Fate at Area-37 against trapped Foundation employees, "I had an idea to solve this day-to-day problem, and this [automatic dressing device] with a choice of maid clothes appeared like an irreversible fate! ”
"............" Mei Li really couldn't respond to Lyle's passion this time, and the fate she understood should have nothing to do with the maid.
Lyle walked to the side of the automatic dressing device and stretched out his hand to signal the operation panel: "Come, try it for yourself~ I try my best to make the operating system easy to use, but the most important thing is user feedback." ”
Ah Shui staggered forward.
"Ah Shui, you don't have to wear clothes." Lyle rolled his eyes and led the water goblin, who generally maintained a female human form, to the side, but Ah Shui was still awkward and pounced on Lyle to make a fuss.
In fact, the use of water-repellent materials or the use of specific magic can make Ah Shui 'wear' the maid's suit, but the actual effect is so strange that it is the ultimate problem that God cannot find a perfect solution.
"Ahaha......" Mei Li stepped forward with a dry laugh, Ah Ci's personality is biased towards passivity, and she has to be the first user.
The operating system uses a graphical user interface that is operated in a touchscreen format that is constructed from energy absorbed from the vicinity. There are definitely improvements, for example, 'where to put the return button is the most comfortable' is a question worth discussing for a long time, but at least Mei Li can understand how to operate without a teacher.
However, Mei Li soon found a problem: "Master, I probably know the choice of color and style, but where to switch to other types of clothes?" ”
"Hey, it's enough to have a maid's suit." Lyle replied with a straight face.
》》》》》》》》
There is no way to verify whether a certain surgeon was a legendary magician in his previous life, but 'becoming a supreme mage after one year of cultivation' is definitely not a normal and common phenomenon. Even with the guidance of a famous teacher, after a year of cultivation, he is still a rookie who can't beat Natasha without wearing a steel suit, and Tony's magic cultivation path is the normal speed.
It's just that Tony doesn't pursue the 'soul growth' advocated by his brother, he just wants to protect the people in front of him, and what he has learned is enough to integrate magic into the energy generated by the Ark Reactor to perform magic, which means that his steel suit can be upgraded to one level.
Since he can live forever after learning magic, Tony doesn't mind treating his cultivation as an amateur sport, and takes his girlfriend and friends on the road of magic by the way...... Not surprisingly, S.H.I.E.L.D. obtained the knowledge through informal channels, and he then claimed that he would return the favor.
Subsequently, Tony made a life-threatening choice - kick out of the unreliable S.H.I.E.L.D. and join the SCP Foundation, becoming the most high-profile superhero and the deepest containment researcher on the other.
However, Tony had just completed the SCP Foundation's 'Memetic Infection Resistance Course' and had not yet applied for a sufficient amount of psychic blocking alloy to create a new steel suit, and New York was about to usher in a doomsday disaster.
"What kind of wind blew the SCP Foundation doctor who didn't care about anything?" S.H.I.E.L.D. Director Nick Fury didn't have a good face at the Iron Man who came to the door when he was in a hurry.
"Good question." Tony lifted his visor and stared at Nick, "What is the reason for the reckless weaponization of the Cosmic Cube, which almost blew up the Earth?" ”
"You're spying on us?" Nick muttered.
There was a nuclear explosion at a research institute, and it was normal for the Foundation to come and ask about it, but it was not unusual to even know what research projects were going on at that research institute.
"What? Almost half of S.H.I.E.L.D. are members of Hydra, so what about a few Foundation informants in there? Tony spread his hands and said as if reprimanding, "Listen, our Foundation doesn't have time to pay attention to the infighting between humans, whether it's S.H.I.E.L.D. or Hydra...... Now let me know, where is the cosmic cube? ”
It was impossible for a genuine S.H.I.E.L.D. personnel to answer this question, but there were three irregulars on the bridge, and Dr. Banner (Hulk) replied, "Stolen by Loki, Loki has been captured, but the Cosmic Cube has not been found." ”
"Banner!" Natasha warned.
Dr. Banner shrugged, "I don't know what the SCP Foundation is...... But it sounds a little more reliable than an organization that conceals 'weaponized' information. ”
Captain America pondered for a moment and added, "Before Thor showed up, Loki's capture was problematic, as if he was caught on purpose. ”
"Ahem...... Excuse me, interrupt. Tony coughed dryly and his eyes fell on Thor, who was dressed in strange clothes, "Thor and Loki, don't tell me they're those two brothers from Asgard." ”
"How do you know they're two brothers?" Nick blurted out.
In Norse mythology that circulates on Earth, Loki is Odin's brother, and Thor is Odin's son.
"I heard the three goddesses of fate of the Greek gods say during a casual conversation three months ago," Tony looked Thor's hammer up and down with strange eyes, "So, you are the accessory of the hammer, Thor?" ”
