Chapter 132 Argument among wizards
When Ma Linglong returned to the parking lot again, Chang Luo and Strange had already fought for several rounds. They used almost the same number of ways, and both had weapons transformed from mana in their hands. The kung fu of stabbing and fisting is also comparable.The two men are constantly creating new dimensions and distorted space-time deformations in various spaces, expecting to trap their opponents in them.During the fierce battle between the two, the barrier split open in large pieces, and then closed again. Ma Linglong was dazzled by the repeated changes. Everything in front of her eyes was a completely different concept from the magic the girl was familiar with.
At first, Ma Linglong thought that Strange appeared for himself, but now it seems that his target is Chang Luo.
Through layers of dimensions, Ma Linglong finally reached the space fault close to them. As a white man, Strange's kung fu is obviously learned from the East. Compared with Chang Luo's flexibility, he seems to be a bit struggling. If it is not With the assistance of the magic floating cloak, he must have been laid down by Chang Luo in the abyss of dimension and trapped in it forever.
Ma Linglong chanted a spell, and sent power into the crack of the wall on the left during the gap between changes. The next second, the spell landed on Chang Luo's shoulder, and the bones in his arm melted immediately, and the transformed weapon disappeared immediately. up.Strange paused for a moment, probably because he was afraid that the girl would suddenly cast a spell indiscriminately again, causing the spell to fly across and hurt innocent people.
Ma Linglong jumped up a virtual step and jumped down the seemingly bottomless dark cave. Soon, she appeared between the two men. Ma Linglong had already seen through the laws of space, and she was already free. walk among them.Taking advantage of Chang Luo's unresponsiveness, Ma Linglong chanted the petrification spell at him.
With a wave of Chang Luo's arm, the space was divided into two, and the spell hit another place. He hurriedly drew a magic circle of light behind himself and jumped into it. The circle disappeared afterward.
This aperture is formed by a combination of magic and spiritual power, through which the caster can reach where he wants to go, a bit like the principle of a wormhole.
The dimensions started to become chaotic, and with the shaking, Strange also drew a circle of light in front of him, "Witch, we have to get out of here." Before Ma Linglong could respond, he dragged the girl His arm threw her out first.
Ma Linglong returned to reality, and then Strange also appeared. They were still in the parking garage just now, but for the tourists who came out of the elevator and were about to enter the garage, Ma Linglong and Strange were very different. Appeared out of nowhere.
"Filming." Strange said, he calmly said to the surprised passers-by who didn't know the truth, "What you saw just now is just a brand new special effect."
He was indeed dressed like a drama actor, with a bright red cape and extremely exotic costumes.
Passers-by seem to believe Strange's serious explanation a little bit.
However, Ma Linglong rolled her eyes and cast an intermittent forgetting spell on a group of people. They would suddenly forget what they saw, and they would recover after a minute.However, when they recovered, there were no Doctor Strange and Ma Linglong in strange costumes in front of them. They would think that it was an illusion caused by vertigo.
"You fix the monitor." After Ma Linglong finished speaking to Strange, she used Apparition to disappear.
"What?" Strange frowned and said to the awkward cloak behind him, "Is she your girlfriend? You might as well go with her."
The cloak flapped dissatisfiedly a few times and knocked him to the ground.
Ma Linglong quickly caught up with Chang Luo with his breath. There were many damages caused by magic on his body, and the bloodstains left along the way indicated his failure.Chang Luo couldn't run too far, and he couldn't even use the anti-tracking spell. He was forced to a dead end by Ma Linglong. The sky was getting dark and there was no one around. It was a good time to commit a crime.
"I'm your only relative." Chang Luo said, his delicate facial features showed a hint of pity, "The living relatives, for the sake of our clan, give me a way to survive, I will go back to Kunlun Mountain to plead guilty to the elders .”
"Where did you learn the Avada Kedavra?" Ma Linglong asked.
Chang Luo said: "I met that man, Tom Riddle, and I learned from him."
"You are a Death Eater." This is an affirmative sentence, Ma Linglong said, "Those classmates, you led them to the other Death Eaters and watched them be killed, right?" Ma Linglong kept I find it very strange that when everyone was waiting at school for the elders of the Juxian Guild to pick them up and go back to China, why did they suddenly go to London.
Now that Ma Linglong had figured it out, she was full of anger.
Chang Luo acquiesced.
Ma Linglong still said in a straight tone, "Where is the Five Life Stone?"
"Already, already destroyed." Chang Luo said, "It's true, I took the five life stones to restore my mana, I know you don't believe it, but think about it, without you, I can't activate the five life stones at all. The enchantment of the life stone. Do you remember that a few days ago, aliens fell from the sky, and I put the five life stones into the device that activated the portal. The five life stones melted as soon as they came into contact with the alien energy Now, you should have noticed that there are enchantments around the instrument, which are caused by the five life stones."
"So, it was really you who nearly crippled Mike?"
The destruction of the five-life stone is at least better than falling into the hands of ambitious people. The reason why it was not released enough to destroy half of the states in the United States is probably neutralized by the power of the Rubik's Cube.
"Yes, I originally planned to let that alien kill you." Chang Luo said flatteringly, "Cousin, I know I did a lot of things to hurt you, but I didn't really hurt you, this is Because I miss old love."
"You didn't hurt me because my strength is above yours." Ma Linglong took a deep breath and didn't want to waste any more words with the other party. "Do you have any last words?" Ma Linglong asked straight to the point .
"You can't kill me, at least until I meet the elders." Chang Luo said, "They won't want to see me die."
"It seems that this is your last word." Ma Linglong suddenly thought that even if he said other last words, he would not help him fulfill them, and given what happened to Chang Luo at this moment, he probably wouldn't say anything flattering. Say what you like, "The elder is too old to see bloody scenes."
It is precisely because of the weakness of the elders that Chang Luo has the opportunity to continue killing people. He should have been sentenced to death a few years ago, but there is no death penalty in Juxian Guild Hall.
Just when Chang Luo was about to fight for something for himself, Ma Linglong cast a fixing spell on him, the girl stepped forward, pulled the man's boneless arm and said: "You want to take over the power of the dragon, I I will give it to you, if you can bear it, I will be very grateful to you for ending the fate of the women of the Ma family for me, if you can't, just treat it as repaying the lives of innocent people who died at your hands."
The dragon's scales began to shine, then bulged, and the golden light spun and climbed up Chang Luo's arm. The powerful divine power gradually occupied the man's thin body and began to burn his internal organs.Chang Luo's blood became hot and boiling, and in an instant, his skin showed bloodstains like cracks.
Ma Linglong let go of his hand, Chang Luo died on the spot because he couldn't bear the ancient divine power, and his death was extremely miserable.
Shenlong returned to Ma Linglong's arm again, and everything returned to calm. The girl's face and clothes were covered with Chang Luo's plasma. Instead of being ecstatic with revenge, she felt extremely sad in a very complicated heart.She squatted down expressionlessly, covered Chang Luo's eyes that were widened due to pain, and then took them away. Chang Luo's eyes were closed, but the hostility was still there, and Ma Linglong used her own spiritual power to dispel it. .
And Chang Luo's soul also disappeared with the burning of the dragon.
Strange found Ma Linglong, and he slowly stepped forward, looking at the Eastern man who died in such a bloody way, hesitant to speak.
Ma Linglong used the cleansing spell to make herself clean again, and she said, "What do you want to say."
Strange said, "Maybe we should get to know each other again."
Ma Linglong stood up without looking back: "Do you have a grudge against him?"
It was not a coincidence that Strange appeared in the parking lot. Ever since he became the supreme mage and the guardian of Christmas in New York, he has paid special attention to Chang Luo's whereabouts.
Chang Luo didn't expect that the mantis catching the cicada and the oriole would happen to him. Strange's appearance disrupted Chang Luo's plan and saved Ma Linglong a lot of energy and time.
Of course, even without Strange, Chang Luo would still end up like this in the end.
Except for the women from the Ma family, Shenlong would not recognize anyone.
"He killed the ancient one." Strange said, "I've been looking for him."
Ma Linglong turned her head abruptly, and she stared straight at Strange. This white American man had the same mustache and proud posture as Stark. She saw a kind of devotion and faith in his eyes. Determined.
The girl's mind was blank. She killed her relatives a few seconds ago, but heard the news of the death of the elder she once respected in the next few seconds. It took a long time for her to find her voice: "Master Gu Yi ,died?"
"Yes." Strange said with the same regret, "It's often one of the murderers, and the other one has already been dealt with by me. It's a little cleaner than your way of handling it."
"Oh." Ma Linglong turned her head away. Looking at Chang Luo's body, she didn't know what to say for a while, "The other one, who is it?"
Strange felt that Ma Linglong's appearance was a bit strange, but since people who practice magic have unconstrained thinking, Strange didn't care too much: "Casillas."
Casillas, Ma Linglong seems to have seen him before. At that time, there were not many disciples of the ancient master. Casillas came to that mysterious land from a foreign country in order to understand the mysteries of the multiverse.In Ma Linglong's memory, he was not young, but he was the most diligent and talented among the few disciples of Master Gu Yi.
Unexpectedly, he would kill his master.
"What did you say is your name?" Ma Linglong asked quietly.
"Strange, Steven Strange," he said.
"No, another title for you."
"Doctor Strange."
Ma Linglong burned Chang Luo's body on the spot and sealed his ashes in a crystal bottle. She wrote an urgent letter and sent it to Kunlun Mountain. She could imagine that when the elders of Juxian Guild received this letter What kind of language would she use to denounce her recklessness and cruelty when she was with the ashes, even ignoring the more cold-blooded things Chang Luo had done.
Perhaps because she was too in a trance, she ignored the authenticity of the corpse when she burned the corpse. She thought the end of everything was the beginning of tragedy.
"What do you need to trade with me?" Ma Linglong asked Strange, "I may not be in the mood to discuss business today."
"Master Ancient One told me before he died, if I want to heal my hand, I can seek your help, and she gave me your business card." Strange said, he stretched out his hands, trembling slightly uncontrollably Stop, Ma Linglong's special business card is on the palm, "Cosmic magic can't heal them, but natural magic can, right?" 【Note 1】
Ma Linglong hesitated for a moment: "Are you drinking?"
Strange thought for a while: "Of course."
Ma Linglong brought him to her bar. At this time, Natasha recovered most of her strength. Not only was she not frightened by the ghosts, but she got a lot of information from them.
As soon as Strange entered the bar, he noticed something was wrong here. He saw right away that the men and women in the room were not real human beings. He came to the bar counter nervously and sat down next to the only person he thought should be safe. .
"Hi, ma'am." Strange said to Natasha, "Are you a mage too?"
Yet she's probably the most insecure in the room.
Natasha smiled and shook hands with the other party, and said: "No, but I know who you are, Dr. Strange, you are a neurosurgeon from the State Hospital. He committed suicide because he couldn't fight, it seems that the rumors are not true."
"I've heard similar rumors, so when I appeared, they were quite frightened." Strange said, "Are you, my patient?"
"I'm not, but my friend is."
"Then may I ask you?"
"S.H.I.E.L.D." Natasha said, "You can call me Natasha."
Among the many disciples of the Ancient One, Strange was not the most prominent at the beginning, at least not on the surface. For the original materialist who suddenly came into contact with magic, it really took a lot of time to master the knack.
As a high-ranking person in the modern medical field, Strange is conceited and even a typical atheist. When he first arrived in the Ancient One, the holy place called Kamataji, Strange was very interested in the so-called magic and spirit. Monde reported with a disdainful and mocking attitude. He came to seek medical treatment and wanted to heal his hand and return to his old business, but the other party told him that magic could make him reborn.
Strange thought he had been deceived, and just as he collapsed, the Ancient One proved the existence of magic with his actions.
He passed the test and eventually became Master Gu Yi's apprentice. Perhaps, the Master knew that such an American doctor would come to him, so he valued him very much from the beginning.
With his photographic memory and unique talent, Strange quickly mastered the way of using magic. He gradually went deeper and began to understand some secret things.
Casillas, the enemy of the ancient mage, was her most proud disciple, but he eventually went to the extreme side. Casillas firmly believed that the ancient pair concealed some magical knowledge that would make him stronger.He wants to gain eternal life, and even longs to use magic to control people's hearts.
After Casillas betrayed the master, he and his followers tried to summon the dark mage Dormammu to swallow the space of the earth by teaching himself the forbidden art, so as to make himself immortal.
Together Strange and his team prevented the tragedy from happening, using the Eye of Agamotto (he was later told that the Time Stone inside was actually a cosmic force) to trap Dormammu in an infinite loop of time In , Strange repeatedly negotiated with the enemy, and finally reached a non-aggression agreement with them. Dormammu returned to the dark dimension with his fanatic, that is, Casillas.
But that negotiation was not an easy and pleasant process. Before reaching the agreed conditions, Strange was killed countless times by Dormammu in various cruel ways, torn, pierced, ground, and even crushed. .Strange survived every death in cycle time the most painful experience he had ever experienced.
He doesn't remember how many times he died, but he remembers every pain and fear before dying clearly. Although he can be reborn every time, the despair before dying is real.He endured the physical and mental devastation brought about by the repeated death that he didn't know when it would end, and he also had the idea of giving up.
While Strange was telling his experiences, Ma Linglong didn't interrupt him, until when he mentioned the Eye of Agamotto, Ma Linglong asked if the other party had seen a man named Loki.So Strange said sullenly that not only had he seen the madman, but he had also stolen the Eye of Agamotto from the London Temple.
Although in the end Strange snatched it back and wounded Loki.
Ma Linglong immediately thought of Loki, the magic of his resurrection of the dead and the magic wand did not rely on his own, but borrowed external force.
Gu Yi's death seemed to be an inevitable result. She was indeed killed by her disciples, but she seemed to have expected that before she died, the mage said something to Strange in the form of a soul that made him feel sad. Words of epiphany.She told Strange to find an oriental wizard living in Los Angeles, USA to solve the problem of his hands. The magic floating cloak liked the witch very much, and it could lead him to find Ma Linglong.
The Ancient One only provided this name and passed away, so that Strange wandered around Los Angeles for a long time without finding any trace of Ma Linglong.
It is not clear how Chang Luo found Strange from the Ancient One. The mage had many oriental students, and Strange thought that Chang Luo was just one of them. He followed Casillas and participated in the battle to murder the mage.Although the fierce battle full of all kinds of magic did not attract anyone's attention, they fought upside down in the virtual space.
"Chang Luo is not Gu Yi's student." Ma Linglong said, "His purpose is to obtain new mana."
Ma Linglong finally knew the source of Chang Luo's strength. His escape from Kunlun Mountain did not happen overnight. He must have been dormant for a long time, so long that people have forgotten his danger.
"Master Ancient One died right in front of me." Strange said sadly.
The magic floating cloak dangled around Ma Linglong, it was always looking for a chance to cover the girl's back, which gave Strange the illusion that he would lose the cloak after today.
"For a Muggle, it's not bad that you can do this." Ma Linglong said, "Mage Gu Yi has lived for a long time, and she already knew that she would die at the hands of her disciples."
"A what?" Strange asked.
"Muggle." Ma Linglong said.
"what is that."
"What we call people who don't have magic."
"But I can do magic now."
There was a brief silence between the two, and then Ma Linglong said: "You are not a born wizard, you only mastered magic through study."
"That's a mage too." Strange said not to be outdone, he heard a bit of contempt from Ma Linglong's words, "Mage Gu Yi told me that mages in this world are divided into different groups. Factions, each faction has its own magic theory, you are just one of them, it’s no big deal.”
Ma Linglong's complexion became very ugly. Of course, she might not have seen it since she entered the bar, but it was even uglier now.If it weren't for Strange's friendship with the Ancient One, Ma Linglong would have kicked him out, but she still disappeared the wine glass in Strange's hand.
"I can get out of my body," Strange said, his undisguised pride making him look a little Stark, "I can separate my soul without breathing, Eat or sleep, I know you can't, and I'm practicing how to use magic in my soul state."
Ma Linglong really couldn't let her soul go out of her body. The different magic systems meant that every wizard (mage or warlock) could only choose one of them to study, and the magics would compete and conflict with each other, making it impossible to master them.It's as if she can master the magic of Hogwarts proficiently, so she can no longer learn the advanced spells of Juxian Guild Hall.
Even so, for a pure wizard like Ma Linglong, Strange's provocation seemed extremely disrespectful: "You can try, go out of your body in front of me, I can guarantee that you will never go back to your inside the body."
"That's not necessarily true." Strange said, "I think cosmic magic is the greatest magic system. It can solve the mystery of dimensions. You must not know that so-called magic is just a special ability to transform space."
"Natural magic is the greatest magic system." The natural magic mentioned by Ma Linglong also includes Juxian Guild Hall. Whether it is Hogwarts or Juxian Guild Hall, the ideas they convey are all learned from nature. The power of magic, not from some ethereal space dimension.
Sterns seemed to have forgotten the purpose of his trip, and started arguing with Ma Linglong: "No, you see, cosmic magic can turn a person who doesn't know magic into a mage. We can change weapons freely by relying on magic. And you have to go through a medium to release the spell, which shows that you are already behind, if you don’t have the magic weapon, that is, your little stick, you can’t do anything, maybe you can consider another learning method.”
"It's really interesting." Ma Linglong said in an extremely mocking tone, "Your purpose was to heal your hands before you received magic training, but in the end you changed from a Doctor to a Master, and your hands are still I’m still as disobedient as an old man in his 90s, I really don’t know what to be proud of.” [Note]
Strange froze there, unable to say a word.
Natasha looked at the debate between the two stubborn wizards defending their domain, and couldn't help feeling sympathetic to Strange. Most of the time, Ma Linglong didn't ask for help. People basically have no patience.Everyone sitting in the bar needs Ma Linglong, and Strange is no exception, but his words just now ruined the deal.
"You can go, Supreme Mage, since the magic you have learned is the greatest, and I'm just a little wizard, I don't think I can help you." Ma Linglong snapped his fingers, Strange He was thrown out of the bar in an instant.
When Strange came back to his senses, he had no way to go in.
The pointed collar of the cloak slapped Strange's face twice, like a silent laugh.
The author has something to say: [Note 1]: I personally understand Marvel magic as cosmic magic. They gain power by diagnosing the mysteries of the universe, or develop their potential, and use some seemingly scientific methods to express magic; and Natural magic pays more attention to nature. You must be a born wizard or warlock to penetrate magic, and the content of magic is more imaginative or even dreamy.
[Doaster]: This is a pun. Doctor has the double meaning of doctor and doctor, and Master means master. Because he is the supreme mage, he is also called Master by others, but Master is also a master. mean.
If you haven't seen Doctor Strange, go see it!
