American comics: Incredible comprehension, hand-crafted forbidden spells

Held aloft by dark red magical energy, Lin Jie rolled his eyes.

"Beautiful lady, are you misunderstanding something?"

Lin Jie helplessly spread his hands. "What Ultron's accomplice? I've never even seen what it looks like."

In fact, with Lin Jie's current strength, he could shatter this binding force in no time by simply circulating the magic power within his body.

But he didn't do anything.

On the one hand, he felt there was no need to hit a woman; on the other hand, Master Gu Yi had just told him before he left that this girl was emotionally unstable and that he should help her if he could.

Wanda stood on the ruins, her anger undiminished: "Not in cahoots? Then why did you allow this monster to slaughter civilians!"

As she became more emotional, the red light in Wanda's hand shone even brighter, and Lin Jie's body rose another half meter.

"Stop, stop, stop!" Lin Jie quickly explained, "This is a misunderstanding. This big worm on the ground is my pet. It just yawned and was so ugly that it scared people. I swear, I really came here to help you deal with Ultron."

Upon hearing the words "deal with Ultron," Wanda's movements visibly paused.

She frowned, carefully examining Lin Jie in mid-air, then looked at the large snake lying on the ground, obediently flicking its tongue.

"You keep such a large venomous snake as a pet?"

Wanda's face clearly showed disbelief, but she loosened her grip slightly.

"A special hobby, a special hobby." Lin Jie chuckled dryly. "I was called here by Stark to help. You can't possibly distrust even Stark, can you?"

"Stark?" Wanda was stunned, then realized, "You're the Kamar-Taj sorcerer's savior Tony Stark mentioned?"

Lin Jie nodded vigorously: "Absolutely genuine."

Once her identity was confirmed, the hostility in Wanda's eyes finally dissipated.

She withdrew the chaos magic, and Lin Jie landed steadily back on the ground.

"I'm sorry, I was too impulsive." Wanda stepped forward, her tone apologetic. "I came out to meet you. When I saw you with such a dangerous creature, I thought it was Ultron's mutated bio-army."

"It's alright, ignorance is no excuse."

Lin Jie stretched his limbs and casually kicked Thanos next to him, "Let's go, Orochi, stop pretending to be dead."

Thanos cursed inwardly.

When he was enveloped in the red light, he had hoped that this crazy woman could crush Lin Jie to death in one fell swoop.

We ended up chatting after just a few words, and all my hopes were dashed.

Two people and a snake roamed the ruined streets of Sokovia.

The horde of machines that had been wreaking havoc just moments before has, without anyone knowing what command it received, receded like a receding tide.

All that remained were the wreckage of machinery billowing black smoke and civilians huddled in the ruins, trembling with fear.

Seeing the devastation, Wanda's face grew increasingly grim.

"These metal lumps are really destructive."

Lin Jie looked at the collapsed clock tower and couldn't help but say something.

Wanda stopped, her eyes dimming. "Sokovia has always been a forgotten place. It's been plagued by war and warlord conflicts for years, and even getting a decent meal is a luxury for everyone."

As she spoke, Wanda suddenly clenched her fists, and dark red magical energy began to flicker uncontrollably at her fingertips.

"Ultron lied to me! It lied to all of us!"

Wanda's voice trembled with rage. "It promised to bring peace to Sokovia and end all wars. But its true purpose is to use Sokovia to destroy all of humanity! It's a complete madman!"

As her anger escalated, the red light emanating from Wanda grew stronger, and even the surrounding rocks began to be affected by the energy, levitating uncontrollably.

Upon seeing this situation, Lin Jie immediately recalled Gu Yi's words.

This girl's emotions were indeed like a time bomb, ready to explode at any moment.

If she were to go on a rampage here, she'd probably tear down the rest of the city.

"Don't worry, we're here. It can't destroy the world."

Lin Jie quickly stepped forward and reassured him firmly.

"Now that we know about its plot, let's just take down its headquarters."

This simple word of comfort miraculously worked.

Wanda took a few deep breaths, and the red light at her fingertips slowly dissipated, causing the suspended pebbles to fall back to the ground.

"Thank you." Wanda calmed herself down, but when she turned to look at Lin Jie, there was a hint of doubt in her eyes.

"But to be honest, I don't think you can handle Ultron," Wanda said quite frankly.

Lin Jie raised an eyebrow: "Why?"

"Because Ultron has no weaknesses," Wanda explained. "It's a pure data life form. As long as there's an internet connection and a computer on Earth, it can instantly transfer its consciousness there. And it can infinitely replicate Jaeger bodies. Stark told me about your EMP disconnection plan, but in my opinion, it's just wishful thinking."

Wanda paused, then looked directly into Lin Jie's eyes: "Stark said you could solve it with magic. But can magic really trap a piece of data?"

Lin Jie sensed the distrust in her words.

This is actually normal. These days, apart from people from Kamar-Taj, who would take the magic in fairy tales seriously?

"Of course I can." Lin Jie smiled confidently.

"I don't believe it," Wanda retorted bluntly. "If you're really as powerful as Stark says, why didn't you fight back when I lifted you up with my energy?"

Lin Jie was stunned for a moment. What kind of logic was this?

"I didn't want to hit a woman, to avoid causing unnecessary misunderstandings," Lin Jie explained.

Wanda shook her head, assumed a fighting stance, and her hands glowed with a dark red light once more.

"This concerns the life and death of millions of people in Sokovia, and I will never place my hopes on a person who only talks big."

Wanda's eyes flashed sharply as she stared directly at Lin Jie: "If you truly have the strength to deal with Ultron, then prove it to me! Make your move, let me see just how powerful the sorcerers of Kamar-Taj really are!"
