American comics: Incredible comprehension, hand-crafted forbidden spells

As Master Wang was wildly imagining things, Carter sighed like a wilted eggplant.

"Grand Master, I really can't hide this anymore. I've already publicly announced that he's being promoted to trainee mage."

"Starting tomorrow, this big Buddha statue will be under your care. He will come directly to the library to give you lessons."

Carter doesn't want to spend another second with Lin Jie now.

Who knows if Lin Jie will split the entire Earth apart tomorrow if he continues to lead the family?

"Grand Master, today I finally understand life completely."

Carter looked up at the dark sky, a single tear of suppressed frustration rolling down his cheek.

"We ordinary folks train for years, but Lin Jie, this monster, trains in minutes! Heaven is truly blind!"

Seeing Carter's agonizing state, Master Wang's heart skipped a beat.

However, Master Wang is still a top-tier figure in the top ten of Kamar-Taj.

If he were to be terrified by a newcomer who had only been there for three days, where would he, as the elder of the Scripture Pavilion, put his face?

"Alright, stop howling." Master Wang put on a stern face, trying to appear calm. "Since things have come to this, have him come directly to the library tomorrow. I'll personally discipline him."

Upon hearing this, Carter nodded his head like a motor.

Thank goodness!

Finally, we've gotten rid of this hot potato!

No more daily setbacks!

"So, you're sitting here on this cold ground in the middle of the night, questioning your existence, all because Lin Jie drove you to the brink of collapse?"

Looking at Carter's pitiful, huddled-up appearance, Master Wang couldn't help but speak out with disdain:

"He's just a promising young talent, why are you so scared?"

"Karmar-Taj is supposed to be a sacred place of cosmic magic. If word gets out that you're behaving like this, you'll utterly disgrace us!"

"What's there to panic about? Leave everything to me tomorrow."

Carter looked at Wang the Mage with the same skepticism one would show a warrior, and sincerely warned, "Thanks for taking the plunge, Grand Mage. But I still have to give you a heads-up, this kid's thought process is truly extraordinary, you must be very careful!"

After saying that, Carter buried his head in his arms again, continuing to brood alone.

Master Wang shook his head in exasperation, then turned and left with his hands behind his back.

Walking down the dark corridor, his pace slowed unconsciously as his mind raced, trying to figure out what he should teach tomorrow to keep this freak in check.

However, neither Master Wang nor Carter noticed the other end of the training ground.

In the shadow of several thick stone pillars.

There was also a petite figure sitting there, dressed in a gray monk's robe.

Lilia hugged her legs tightly, rested her chin on her knees, and looked up, staring intently at the starless night sky.

The little girl's eyes were unfocused, and she was muttering incoherently.

"My senior brother clearly said... my talent is the strongest..."

"Why did he become stronger after standing there for a while?"

"Can you really come up with such terrifying magic just by thinking? Why have I been sitting here all night thinking... and all I've come up with is want to sneeze?!"

.......

the other side.

Master Wang didn't close his eyes all night.

I tossed and turned in bed, my mind filled with the outrageous things Carter had said.

Logically speaking, he would be overjoyed if Kamar-Taj were to recruit a prodigy with exceptional talent.

Why did the Ancient One, the Sorcerer Supreme, wander through the universe for centuries?

Isn't the goal simply to find a freakish genius, train him properly, and have him withstand a super monster of Dormammu's dimension in the future?

The problem is, Lin Jie's talent is a bit too abnormal!

Given this kid's terrifying learning speed, if all the secrets of Kamar-Taj were laid out for him to learn, he could probably master them all in just a few days.

Thinking of this, Master Wang became timid.

As an elder of the Sutra Repository, Master Wang certainly has a wealth of knowledge.

He even read through the fragments of dark magic sealed by the Ancient One.

Of all the people in Kamar-Taj, besides the Ancient One, he knows the most.

What if we just taught all of this to Lin Jie?

What if this kid goes astray in the future? Wouldn't the Earth be destroyed by a super villain he personally cultivated?

After all, Lin Jie hasn't gone out to gain experience yet, and no one can say for sure whether his temperament is stable. It's too risky.

But what if you only teach the basics?

Lin Jie is a monster who shaved half of Mount Everest with just a basic luminous line!

Can you fool him by teaching him the basics?

Master Wang sighed and forcefully suppressed these chaotic thoughts.

Seeing is better than hearing.

Carter is usually quite outspoken, so he might have embellished his words last night.

Let me try it out myself first.

The next morning, just as dawn was breaking, Carter led Lin Jie to the library.

Despite having two huge dark circles under his eyes, Master Wang forced himself to sit in the chair.

"Grand Master."

Carter bowed respectfully.

Seeing this, Lin Jie quickly bowed as well, saying, "Greetings, Grand Master."

Master Wang yawned and nodded slightly.

He earned his position through his own abilities, so he doesn't need to pretend to be superior like Carter.

He raised his head, his gaze sweeping over Lin Jie from head to toe like a searchlight.

The young man looked to be only eighteen or nineteen years old. He had clear eyes, stood straight, and exuded a calm and composed demeanor.

First impressions are good.

"I am the Archmage of Kamar-Taj. From now on, you can just call me the King Mage." The King Mage spoke casually.

Lin Jie was secretly delighted.

Master Wang!

This is the second-in-command of Kamar-Taj, the Ancient One's most trusted right-hand man.

Although he doesn't have many scenes in the movie, he is definitely a powerful and unassuming figure.

Follow him, and you're guaranteed to make money!

"Yes, Master Wang."

Lin Jie readily agreed, his eyes shining.

Without further ado, Master Wang got straight to the point: "Carter has already reported your situation to me. I heard that you've figured out hundreds of magical forms for weapons in these past three days?"

Lin Jie nodded honestly: "Yes, it's all thanks to my senior brother's careful guidance these past few days that I've been able to make some progress."

Upon hearing this, Master Wang nodded inwardly.

He knows the rules and respects his teachers; this kid isn't a bad person.

Carter, standing to the side, wished he could disappear into the ground. His face was burning hot.

He cried out in his heart: God is my witness!

All I taught him was how to draw a line!

The rest was all made up in his own head!

What does this have to do with me?

Master Wang naturally couldn't hear Carter's inner thoughts.

His primary task now is to find out Lin Jie's true background.

"Now that you understand weapon forms, let's demonstrate some practical applications. Use the Ring of Laggardor."

As Master Wang spoke, he stood up.

As a top-ten expert, he doesn't need to chant spells or accumulate power for a long time.

He simply raised his hands casually in front of his chest.

"Buzz—"

Two circular magic shields emitting a blinding red light instantly appeared on the outside of his left and right hands.

"This is Kamar-Taj's most classic defensive counter-attack spell. Since you can create hundreds of weapons, making a shield shouldn't be difficult, right?"

As Master Wang explained, he casually dispersed the red light in his hand.

He actually used this to test Lin Jie on purpose.

Lin Jie already knows the Scarlet Chains, so testing him on that again wouldn't show his true level.

"clear."

Lin Jie took a deep breath.

He had already replicated the Ring of Laggardor in his own armory.

Lin Jie imitated Master Wang's gesture, quickly making a sweeping motion with both hands in front of his chest.

"Sizzle sizzle—"

Accompanied by a faint sound of energy friction.

Two magical shields, both gleaming with a dazzling red light, appeared steadily on the outside of Lin Jie's hands.

Master Wang's pupils suddenly contracted.

He stared intently at the two red shields in Lin Jie's hand, his heart pounding uncontrollably.

The Ring of Raghadore has two colors.

The color used by beginners and ordinary mages is orange-yellow.

Only those with extremely profound magical power, at least at the level of a Grand Mage, can condense this dark red form.

The red shield's defensive power is absolutely terrifying; it can even withstand a single blow from a cosmic overlord!

Lin Jie, a newbie who had only been practicing for three days, actually managed to create a red form with ease?!

Master Wang felt as if his worldview had been hit hard again.

Carter wasn't lying last night.

This kid is more than just a god, he's practically a human cheat code!
