Chapter 161; Dimensional shuttles, Dormammu's phantoms, the occult
The exuberant consciousness involuntarily sank and scattered, and then it was condensing, dissolving, condensing......
"This universe is just one of the infinite universes, and the world is infinite."
Consciousness returned, and he continued to shuttle through space, skipping the rainbow-like spatial passages, and he came to a space full of mirror images.
There are countless worlds in the mirror like a kaleidoscope......
"There is a wonderful, vibrant ......"
Merlin fell into a mirrored space, and in a sound like a broken lens, he entered a world of life, and with a single glance, he fell again into an eerie, invisible-like space.
"There is also evil, full of killing ......" the ancient one's murmured whisper continued to ring in the depths of Merlin's heart.
Merlin walked forward again uncontrollably, as if he was getting farther and farther away from space.
"In those dark corners, the power of the wild is in the greedy ...... Wait! ”
As the words fell, Merlin saw a face as huge as a domino.
"Ancient ......," the muttered voice of the face reached Merlin's ears.
Dormammu ...... Merlin's mind subconsciously flashed the name.
"Who are you in this multiverse?"
The space quickly faded, and Merlin instantly smashed down in front of the ancient one.
"He seems to have fainted...... "Mordo said as if he had returned to the place at some point, looking at the boy on the ground with his eyes closed.
"Forget he's a kid!" The Ancient One crouched down and looked at Merlin closely, finding that the corners of his mouth were still with an obsessive smile.
"He's dangerous!" Mordo said suddenly.
"Yes, but the talent is unprecedented. The earth may be destroyed by him, but it may also be saved by him. It depends on how we guide. Gu Yi said, helping Merlin on the ground up, "Arrange a room for him, don't let your junior brother lie on the floor." ”
"Good!" Mordo lifted Merlin up, as heavy and thick as a piece of iron.
"It's pretty heavy......" He looked at Merlin, who had passed out, his hands itching.
But when the other party wakes up, there is time to play with him.
Gu Yi looked at the two who had left, waved his arm at the void, and a transparent lens immediately appeared in front of him.
She stepped inside, disappearing into the hall.
After Mordo sent Merlin to his room, he went back to his place to ask the Ancient One some questions, but she was no longer there.
Master Hamill sat at the desk and glanced at him, "He's gone." ”
…………
……
The next day, Merlin opened the door refreshed and stretched out in the warm sun.
"Let's go, I'll take you to get the book." Mordo was still the same decoration as yesterday, but the red mark on his face was gone.
After he finished speaking, he gave Merlin a cold back.
"It shouldn't be a problem if you don't wash for a day......" Merlin comforted herself and hurriedly followed.
The two walked side by side in the boardwalk towards the library, which could also be called the library. After all, the knowledge in it is also shared, except for a few books......
Merlin changed into a plain gray apprentice's robe, and as he passed by the central square, the Temple's apprentices were doing their morning exercises.
The leader of the team is an old man explaining his experience, demonstrating the movements of his hands, and his hands draw circles towards the center, separating each other.
The lines of the magic array appeared in the void beside him.
The apprentices in the rear also learned his movements, chanting incantations and began to carve the magic circle in front of him.
Some of them are extremely unstable, as if they are about to collapse in the next second, but they are also as stable as an old dog, and the magic array is fixed in the void.
Each of them wore robes and wore what appeared to be a heavy ring on their fingers.
"Looks like they've entered the magic academy of the Middle European Century, if only they were younger." Merlin watched this scene curiously.
"We are a mage sanctuary, not an academy. In fact, you should stay in school well, and it's not too late to graduate. ”
"I'm sorry, but there's no more I want to learn at school."
"I really don't know why the Ancient One would accept you as a disciple." Mordo shook his head, his steps a little faster.
"You know that very well......" Merlin waved his hand in a complaining voice.
…………
Inside the library, Merlin meets a fat mage with an equally serious face, Wang, who, if nothing else, is also the future Supreme Mage.
After receiving the basic magic books, Merlin made his way to the main hall.
Gu Yidu sat in the center, closed his eyes and rested.
Merlin came to sit cross-legged across from her.
…………
"Tell me about your understanding of magic." The two sides were silent for a while, and Gu Yi slowly opened his eyes and said.
Merlin pondered for a moment, organized his words, and then spoke slowly, "The essence of magic overrides the scientific realm of all known technologically oriented intelligent races, and is used for reality bending, mind control, and elemental attacks.
"Magic is more like a kind of psychic energy, which belongs to the occult discipline, which is divided into natural magic, planetary magic, and ritual magic, but without exception, it all needs to rely on the energy of other objects."
"Magic knows no black and white, no elements! Only give you space to get energy. Dimension of Nature, Planetary Dimension, Dimension of Faith......"
"Actually, I've taught myself some magic." Merlin said, and a simple magic array was carved out of the void, and the dark red energy formed a blessing character.
Magic belongs to the philosophical discipline of the occult sciences, and in terms of pure magic, it has no attributes.
The concept of the elements, both in the East and the West, is only an atomistic conception of the basic composition of the world's matter, and in magic it is at best an elephant emblem.
"The energy of hell ......" Gu Yi suddenly felt as if he had underestimated the young man in front of him.
"Yes, I borrowed it by skill." Merlin dissipated his energy and nodded. As a bridge between life and death, the Stygian can also connect to the world of the dead to a certain extent.
"Looks like my teaching will be much easier......" she smiled at Merlin. Immediately began to introduce it further, "In fact, the language of occult spells has existed since the birth of civilization......"
"Since a long time ago, His Holiness has referred to this language as a mantra, which can be understood as a mechanical program." Gooru gave an example, hoping to make Merlin more acceptable.
"We collect energy, as you said, from other dimensions of the multiverse, and chant incantations." She began to carve magic patterns in the void, and a square magic circle crisscrossed by a circle in the middle appeared in front of Merlin, reflecting his curious expression.
"Thus forging shields and sharp weapons, and casting magic." A complete orange magic array appeared in front of Merlin, and the energy released blew his hair slightly rippling.
"Then you should also discover a lot of concepts from other dimensions." Merlin touched the magic array and said curiously.
"Yes, some kindness, some danger." Gu Yi groaned and nodded.
"I want to learn this!" Merlin's eyes lit up and he said immediately.
