The Martial God of the Marvel World

Chapter 373: Wanda, the Supreme Sorcerer?

Steve couldn't explain things like the Reality Stone to them, but Nina's words gave him a heads up.

Could it be that there really is some dark creature in this city secretly controlling everything, and the Reality Stone has fallen into the hands of that dark creature, so they can never find it?

He brought this idea up to everyone, and after a few discussions, they felt that the information was insufficient and they could not make a judgement, but they all tended to believe that the Reality Stone was in Wanda's hands.

Because from the results, although the whole city feels like it is controlled like a game, everyone lives very peacefully. At least compared to other European cities, this place is simply a paradise on earth.

So after discussion, everyone thought that although the owner of the Reality Stone behaved evilly, he had a kind heart and just used the wrong method.

Even a dark magician like Casillas can live happily here like an ordinary person. It can be imagined that the gem holder is not an unforgivable villain.

Before a new suspicious object was discovered, Wanda was the most suspicious.

But a new problem arises. Wanda obviously has no magic power, so how does she activate the Reality Stone?
"There's no point racking our brains here. Why don't we just talk to Wanda directly?"

Steve hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded and agreed. If Wanda really holds the Reality Stone, then given her character, there will be no danger. If the crux of the problem can be found, and the power of the Avengers can be used to help Wanda solve the problem, then perhaps the Reality Stone can be obtained smoothly.

First, let someone take Nina and the other person back to the hotel. Then let Professor Hulk, who has already completed sampling and installed monitoring equipment at Casillas' place, hand over the simple monitoring work to Friday, and come to meet up with him, carrying scientific equipment to detect the fluctuations of the reality gem.

After Professor Hulk arrived, everyone went to Wanda's house together.

Wanda had gotten off work and was preparing dinner.

Steve went forward and knocked on the door. After a moment, the door opened. Wanda, wearing an apron and wiping her hands with a towel, was quite surprised to see Steve's world-famous face.

"Wow, welcome aboard, Captain America. What can I do for you?"

"Wanda, we need to talk."

"And me?"

"Yes. Is that convenient?"

"Uh, of course." Wanda's face was not panicked at all, but only confused and puzzled. She stepped aside to make way for the door and extended her hand to greet the guest, "Come in."

Everyone filed in, and everyone greeted Wanda, whom they hadn't seen for a long time, with a smile and a nod, "Hi, Wanda, long time no see."

Wanda was frightened by their affectionate attitude and waved her hands stiffly at them, "Hi..."

After everyone sat down on the sofa, Wanda went back to the kitchen to turn off the fire, then brought out coffee and brewed it for everyone, looking a little nervous.

"Well, we rarely have guests at home, and this is all cheap coffee. I don't know if it suits your taste."

"It tastes good." Steve took a sip of coffee. "Don't be so reserved, Wanda. Sit down too. I have something to talk to you about."

"Oh." Wanda put the coffee pot on the table and sat on the sofa opposite everyone, with her hands on her knees, flexing and stretching uncomfortably.

"Wanda, what we are going to say next may be hard for people to believe, but please believe me, what I say is true."

"Oh, I believe you, because you are Captain America, a superhero. I believe you were deceived by Hydra to become the President of the United States. Now Hydra has been destroyed, and your contribution must be indispensable. And Natasha, you are the idol of all women..."

It has to be said that Captain America is a very famous name. He is well-known in any European or American country. The Avengers are also well-known and have fans all over the world. Even though Wanda lives in a small European country like Sokovia, she is still a fan of Captain America and the Avengers.

"Uh..." Steve touched his nose embarrassedly, "Actually, we are not from this universe, we are from a parallel world."

"What?" Wanda frowned in confusion, her delicate eyebrows squeezed together, making her whole face look cute. "Sorry, I haven't been to college, so I don't quite understand. What is a parallel world?"

At this time, it was Professor Hulk's turn to take the stage. Steve turned his body to the side and waved his hand, directing Wanda's attention to Professor Hulk who was sitting next to him.

For Professor Hulk, using an easy-to-understand explanation method to provide popular science introductions is a basic skill for a professor. He gave Wanda a brief explanation in just a few words, allowing Wanda to roughly understand the meaning of the parallel world.

"In our universe, you are also a member of the Avengers, and we are friends. So, maybe you are very unfamiliar with us, but we are actually very familiar with you. Now we are here to seek your help." Seeing that Wanda had understood the basic concepts, Steve went straight to the point and stated the purpose of his visit.

"You mean, I also became an Avenger in another universe, maintaining world peace and saving the world like you?" Wanda looked at Steve in surprise with an incredible expression on her face.

"Yes, that's it!" Steve nodded solemnly.

Wanda still couldn't believe it and turned to look at everyone else, but when she saw that everyone was smiling and nodding at her, she stood up in surprise, covered her face with her hands, and walked around the room excitedly.

“Oh my god, this is incredible!”

"How could I possibly join the Avengers?"

"I mean…what can I do by joining the Avengers?"

"Make you some coffee?"

"I've never even used a gun!"

Steve smiled and reassured her, "In our universe, you're a superhero too!"

"You are the Scarlet Witch. You use the power of magic to fight. Magic gives you powerful attack and defense capabilities."

"You are an integral part of the Avengers."

"Magic?" Wanda's eyes lit up. "Is there really magic in this world?"

"Of course, this Mage Wang comes from the Magic Temple. He is a powerful mage."

Wang cooperated by extending his hand and performing two small magic tricks, which made Wanda very happy. Seeing Wanda who looked like a girl who had never seen the world, the other people's eyes flickered and they exchanged glances with each other, and began to wonder if they had chosen the wrong person.

Here are Natasha who is proficient in micro-expressions, Nebula who can read minds, the magic world's master Wizard King, and Professor Hulk who is equipped with a full set of technological detection equipment, but these four people have a very consistent judgment on Wanda. She is just an ordinary girl and there is no sign of abnormality on her.

Steve glanced at the eyes of the people around him, and his heart was somewhat shaken. For a moment, he didn't know whether he should continue with the plan.

At this moment, footsteps sounded outside the door, and Pietro came back, "Sister, I'm back, is the meal ready? Huh?"

Pietro, who was changing his shoes at the door, was half bent over, looking at the familiar people sitting on the sofa, stunned.

"Let me introduce you, this is my brother..." Wanda stood up to introduce everyone, but was interrupted by Steve, "No need for introductions, we all know each other. Hi, Pietro."

"Wow, could it be that my brother is also..." Wanda looked at her brother in surprise.

"Yes, Pietro's nickname is Quicksilver, and he is also a superpower. He is very fast and can run like lightning."

"What?" Pietro put on his slippers and walked into the house inexplicably, looking at the people chatting and laughing, "Uh, sister, didn't you find the gem?"

"What gems? You're just thinking about those intangible things." Wanda rolled her eyes at her brother and began to explain to him. Then, after Professor Hulk's popular science presentation and the Wizard King's magic display, Pietro became as excited as Wanda.

"So are you here this time to get us to join the Avengers again?" Pietro waved his fist excitedly, but Wanda held him down.

"No! Pietro, we can't join the Avengers!"

"Why? Captain America is here in person."

"No matter what we are like in another world, we are just ordinary people in this world. If we join the Avengers, we will only hinder others. There is no other possibility except to make you die faster."

Pietro paused for a moment, his expression bitter, but he soon perked up again, "I can't do anything about my superpowers, but you can learn your magic!"

He turned to look at the Mage King, "King, you will teach my sister magic, right?"

Wang was stunned for a moment, blinked his eyes, thought carefully, and said: "Since Wanda has activated the power of chaos magic, she must have the talent to learn magic. Moreover, her talent is probably not low. If Wanda really joins the Supreme Temple to learn magic, she may become the next candidate for the Supreme Sorcerer!"

Steve and the others were stunned and asked in surprise: "Isn't Strange the next Sorcerer Supreme?"

Wang shook his head. "I don't know who Strange is. But since the Strange in your world has become the Sorcerer Supreme, I will go find him and check on him. America is shattered, and I don't know if he is still alive."

"Hey, sister, did you hear that? You can be the next Sorcerer Supreme!" Pietro excitedly grabbed Wanda's shoulders and shook her vigorously. "Although I don't know who the Sorcerer Supreme is, I know he must be very powerful just by hearing the name."

"Stop wandering, Pietro. I'm not interested in the Sorcerer Supreme." Wanda pushed her brother away in a scolding tone. "I have to stay and take care of you. Otherwise, you won't even have a job and will starve to death sooner or later."

"Come on, sister, I'm an adult!" Pietro spread his hands helplessly, "You were only born 12 minutes earlier than me, we are actually the same age!"

"But I am more mature than you mentally. You have always been like a child who has not grown up. How can I trust you?"

"Even so, you don't have to refuse to become the Supreme Sorcerer!" Pietro obviously didn't want to continue to be mediocre and wanted to be different. He eloquently urged his sister, "After you learn magic, you can teach it to me! When I become a magician, will I still starve to death?"

"By then, I won't have to worry about you starving to death. What I will worry about is that you will be beaten to death!" Wanda rolled her eyes in annoyance.

Seeing that the topic had completely deviated to whether Wanda wanted to become the Sorcerer Supreme, Wang had to cough dryly and interrupt their conversation, "Whether she can become the Sorcerer Supreme is not up to me. The current Sorcerer Supreme has to decide."

"Did you hear that?" Wanda glanced at her brother proudly.

"However, I do think that you should go back to the temple with me, Wanda. You are a good candidate for learning magic, and it is a shame to waste you in this small town." Wang gave Pietro another perfect assist.

"Yes, sister, staying in a small place like this for a lifetime will waste your best life. Why don't we go learn magic together!" Pietro said, and then turned to look at the king, "I can go too, right?"

"Yes, the temple welcomes anyone who is interested." The king nodded and extended an invitation to him.

As for whether he could learn it or not, that was another matter. Anyway, most of the magicians in the Supreme Temple were mediocre, and there was no one more like him.

Wanda was obviously a little hesitant. She looked around, and everyone she saw smiled and nodded at her, expressing encouragement.

"In that case..." Wanda hesitated and said hesitantly: "Then I will..."

Just as Wanda was about to agree, her expression suddenly changed and she changed her mind in an instant, "No, I don't want to be the Sorcerer Supreme. I just want to live a stable life here. It's good to be an ordinary person. There's no need to take those risks outside. Pietro, I'm talking about you. Find a job honestly and don't be so restless all the time."

The detection equipment on Professor Hulk suddenly made a shrill sound, and Wang and Nebula both raised their eyebrows and looked at each other.

"Sorry, the instrument is malfunctioning." Professor Hulk turned off the instrument alarm and made eye contact with Steve. Steve understood and immediately stood up and said goodbye.

Wanda and Pietro invited the Avengers to stay for dinner, but they all declined. However, they agreed to visit again, so the siblings regretfully saw off all the guests.

After leaving Wanda and her brother's sight, everyone quickly returned to the fighter plane and began to analyze and summarize the intelligence.

"When Wanda was about to agree to leave, the instrument detected the fluctuation of the Reality Stone." Professor Hulk projected the data onto the virtual screen and explained first.

"At that moment, I did feel the surge of magic power in Wanda, but the source of the magic power is unknown." Wang Ye gave a positive conclusion.

Finally, Nebula read her mind. "Everything before was very normal, all the ways of thinking were completely logical, and Wanda was indeed persuaded by us. But in the moment before she agreed, her way of thinking was disturbed by some unknown force, which changed her mind and made her decide to refuse."

"In other words, someone really used magic to activate the Reality Stone and modified Wanda's mind?" Steve concluded.

"Yes, it can be confirmed now."

"Then the question is, who is behind all this? Is Casillas really dead?"
