American comics: Something is wrong with this superhero world

Chapter 160 Death of Ancient One
He arrived at Kamar-Taki on time, just as Ancient One said. When Xiao Xian arrived at Kamar-Taki, he just saw Ancient One falling to the ground after being pierced in the stomach by Casillas' magic blade.

"Kamartaki, I'm counting on you. From now on, you are the new Supreme Sorcerer." Lying in a pool of blood, Gu Yi looked at Xiao Xian who came over, and said weakly.

Your acting is too fake, isn't it? The Supreme Mage died after being stabbed in the stomach? ? ! ! With a twitch of his mouth, Xiao Xian glanced at the mages around him who had different expressions and ulterior motives, and then said

"Don't worry, leave it to me. I will protect Kamartekhi."

"That's good." After saying this, the light in Gu Yi's eyes quickly dissipated, and he 'passed away' with a smile on his lips.

Are the special effects so good? Are the details so accurate? Even the light in the eyes faded away? Looking at the scene of Gu Yi's death, Xiao Xian tried his best not to laugh out loud.

Baron Mordo walked forward slowly with a hint of disdain and provocation, holding his magic stick. His eyes scrutinized Xiao Xian.
"You are the new Sorcerer Supreme, Xiao Xian?" Baron Mordo's voice echoed in the palace, with a hint of irony. "I remember you are a superhero from Oscorp, right? Do you know magic? What qualifications do you have to become..."

However, before Baron Mordo finished his words, Xiao Xian had already taken action. Without any hesitation or warning, Xiao Xian's eyes suddenly emitted a fiery gaze. The fiery gaze was like a substance, passing through Baron Mordo's head and the wall behind him. At this moment, the entire palace fell into a dead silence.

Baron Mordo's body froze for a moment, then he lost his balance and slowly fell down. The people around him were horrified, staring at this scene in amazement, unable to believe their eyes.

Normally, is it okay to sneak attack someone when they are talking nonsense? Isn't that a bit unethical?

Casillas and his two apprentices, as allies of Baron Mordo, looked extremely ugly in an instant. Shock and fear were intertwined in their eyes. Baron Mordo was even stronger than them and was an important support for this operation. Unexpectedly, he was defeated by Xiao Xian's despicable sneak attack.

Having witnessed what happened to Baron Mordo, Casillas and his two apprentices immediately began to chant spells. Their gestures were swift and powerful, and purple magical energy began to gather in their palms, foreshadowing the powerful magic that was about to be released.

However, Xiao Xian seemed to have been prepared for all this. His reaction was even faster. Almost at the moment when Casillas and his men raised their hands, two more intense rays of heat flashed from Xiao Xian's eyes. These two rays of heat were like two sharp swords, which pierced directly through the heads of Casillas and his two apprentices with an unstoppable force.

The whole process happened so fast that no one present had time to react. Casillas and his two apprentices stiffened instantly, and then fell to the ground like puppets with their strings cut. The purple magic energy dissipated in their hands without being released, symbolizing the end of their lives.

Everyone present fell into complete silence at this moment. They were in deep awe of Xiao Xian's speed. Even Wang's eyes changed when he looked at Xiao Xian. Although Xiao Xian's heat vision was not magic, its power was stronger than most magic. The magic-protected wall that was penetrated was proof of that. The most outrageous thing was that it was instantaneous!

Does this affect the balance a bit? What about the will of the world? Is it playable without this nerf?
"You dare to cast a spell in front of me, even though the pre-casting period is so long."

Xiao Xian pouted and walked forward to carefully examine Gu Yi's body. To be honest, Gu Yi was indeed a big shot. His method of faking his death and escaping was beyond the reach of ordinary people. The body was made very real, and Xiao Xian could not see any flaws at all. After Xiao Xian made a final inspection of Gu Yi's "corpse", he slowly turned around and faced the many mages gathered in the center of the palace.

Among these mages, several female mages stood out, and their strength was among the best among those present. They wore robes that represented their respective status and fields, and each of them possessed different magical characteristics. The aura emanating from them was enough to prove that they were extraordinary. The most important thing was that the way they looked at Xiao Xian was completely different, and it was a look that Xiao Xian was very familiar with.

Obviously, the superpowers obtained from Tomie are rule-level superpowers, just as Ancient One said, and even these senior wizards cannot resist them.

The female wizards looked at each other, then walked out of the crowd and came to Xiao Xian. They saluted Xiao Xian in a solemn and elegant posture, which symbolized the highest respect and recognition in the magic world. Their movements were coordinated and smooth, and they obviously paid the highest respect to Xiao Xian, the new successor of the Supreme Wizard.

The leading female sorceress, a master with a great reputation in her field, had a firm and wise look in her eyes, and her clear and loud voice echoed in the palace:

"Master Xiao Xian, we are here to express our deepest respect to you on behalf of all members of Kamar-Taki. According to Master Gu Yi's last wish, we sincerely ask you to succeed the position of Supreme Mage and lead us into a new era."

"That's right, Gu Yi is dead, and you, Xiao Xian, should succeed to the throne!" Another female mage quickly echoed, eager to show herself in front of Xiao Xian.

So I am the one being represented? Wang and several other senior male mages looked at each other, their eyes full of reluctance, but no one was going to take the initiative. After all, Ancient One had just died, and everyone had heard his last wish clearly.

The most important thing is that if they don't go back and add a few layers of protective magic to themselves, Wang and others really don't have the courage to show off their seniority in front of Xiao Xian. What if they are taken away by Xiao Xian's hot gaze?
The entire palace fell into a brief silence. Everyone's eyes were focused on Xiao Xian, waiting for his response.

After waiting for a while, no one objected, so Xiao Xian spoke up.
"Since everyone is so kind to me, and Master Ancient One left a will before his death, I will not refuse. I, Xiao Xian, am willing to accept this important task and succeed the position of Supreme Sorcerer. I will do my best to lead the magic world to a brighter and more prosperous future."

Xiao Xian's words caused an immediate and enthusiastic reaction from the female mages present. They cheered and rejoiced, showing no sadness over Gu Yi's death. On the contrary, several senior male mages, such as Wang, did not look too happy.

After hearing Xiao Xian's answer, the leading female mage smiled happily. She bowed to Xiao Xian again and said, "Since Mage Xiao Xian has accepted the position of the Supreme Mage, we will choose a day to hold a formal succession ceremony for you."

"Okay, just do whatever you want." Xiao Xian waved his hand indifferently.
