The Ancient One was determined to fight Odin to the bitter end.

To the Ancient One's surprise, Odin did not get angry.

Instead of getting angry, this hot-tempered god-king smiled faintly after hearing the Ancient One's polite words: "Very well."

Is that alright?

That's it?

You tore through space all the way from Asgard, yelled at the top of your lungs for ages, only to get a single sarcastic remark and that was it?

They're abandoning the person and just heading home?

The Ancient One was filled with questions and couldn't quite figure out Odin's intentions.

However, since the other party did not intend to forcibly take it, Gu Yi was too lazy to ask any more questions.

Seeing Odin turn to leave, she bowed slightly, her tone impeccably respectful: "Respectfully seeing off the King of Gods."

Odin had already stepped into the void, but suddenly stopped. Without turning his head, he uttered in a low voice, "That child, you cannot keep him in Kamar-Taj."

After saying that, a flash of golden light appeared, and Odin vanished without a trace, leaving not even a trace of energy fluctuation.

Gu Yi's fake smile froze instantly.

Will Kamar-Taj not stay?

Can you keep Asgard here?

They're quite arrogant.

However, what the Ancient One is most curious about now is what kind of freakish apprentice could make Odin swallow his pride and make the trip himself.

Could it be that Kamar-Taj has truly produced a once-in-a-millennium genius?

It seems I need to go back and check it out right away.

……

the other side.

After returning to his dormitory, Lin Jie kept thinking about the so-called "fear magic".

At first, he thought this thing was just nonsense.

However, with a try-it-and-see attitude, he closed his eyes and meditated for a whole night.

As dawn approached, he suddenly had a "buzz" in his head.

Everything is clear now!

It's completely transparent!

Lin Jie felt as if his mental energy had been cleansed, and his whole being had been elevated.

"Karmar-Taj truly lives up to its reputation as a magical holy land of the universe! Even magic that sounds like a hoax can actually be practiced!" Lin Jie rubbed his hands excitedly on the bed.

As soon as it was light, he couldn't wait to jump out of bed and go to the library to report to Master Wang.

However, he hadn't even stepped out of the door.

"Waaaaah—waaaah—"

The piercing air raid siren suddenly blared throughout Kamar-Taj, shattering the tranquility of the early morning.

Lin Jie's heart sank.

As Carter once said, the alarm at Kamar-Taj will never sound unless the Earth is about to perish.

It's said that the last time the siren went off was half a century ago!

I've only been here a few days! And this stupid alarm is already going off?!

That's incredible luck.

Lin Jie didn't dare to delay. He quickly put on a gray robe and ran towards the training ground.

The training ground was now packed with mages.

Master Wang stood at the front, usually looking like he hadn't woken up yet, but today his face was ashen, his hands were behind his back, and his brows were furrowed.

The entire audience was filled with unease.

The apprentices, especially the new ones, were terrified, their faces turning pale, and they whispered amongst themselves.

"What terrible thing has happened? Is this the end of the world?"

"Someone's definitely going to die! We're magicians, how could our opponents be ordinary people?"

"I've only just learned how to string a ball; who could I possibly beat?"

Tension, fear, and unease permeated the air.

Although the experienced old monks did not speak, their eyes were filled with deep solemnity.

Just then, Master Wang raised his hand and pressed it down. The entire hall fell silent instantly.

"A giant wormhole has appeared over New York. A large number of alien creatures are invading Earth!"

Master Wang's voice wasn't loud, but it reached everyone's ears clearly.

"The three holy temples are under immense defensive pressure; we need to provide immediate support!"

"The Sorcerer Supreme has decreed: Our primary task is to evacuate civilians and protect the masses during their evacuation! As for engaging the enemy head-on, leave that to the Avengers!"

New York? Wormhole?

Alien invasion?

The Avengers?!

Lin Jie felt a chill run down his spine.

Holy crap, this is the plot of Avengers 1!

I've barely scratched the surface of magic, and I haven't even gotten close to the Ancient One yet, how did I get dragged into the Battle of New York?!

"Don't panic, everyone." Master Wang's tone was calm as he began assigning tasks. "Treat this as a practical exercise. All apprentices will form groups of three, each led by either a trainee mage or a fully-fledged mage!"

After saying that, Master Wang raised his hand and made a sweeping motion in the air, and a huge golden teleportation portal opened instantly.

Across the street lies the towering skyscrapers and blazing fires of New York City.

Master Wang began calling out names and grouping people in an orderly manner.

Seeing his calm and composed demeanor, Lin Jie's wildly beating heart calmed down a little.

"Carter, Lynch, and Lillia, you three form a team! Head to Stark Tower area immediately to provide support!"

Upon hearing his name called, Lin Jie quickly ran to the designated location to meet up with Carter and Lillia.

"Senior Brother."

Lin Jie greeted them and nodded to Lillia.

Lilia's face was tense, and she didn't say a word.

Carter forced a smile and patted Lin Jie on the shoulder: "Don't be afraid, we're just going to rescue people, we won't be involved in the fighting."

After saying that, Carter sidled up to the mage, pleading with a pained expression, "Great Mage, please, have mercy and let me go with the main group! Leading two complete novices is too much pressure for me; I can't handle it if something goes wrong!"

Master Wang glanced at Carter and snapped, "Bullshit! It's the two of them who's leading a newbie like you!"

Caught red-handed, Carter awkwardly touched his nose and sheepishly led the way into the portal.

Lilia took a deep breath and followed her inside.

Lin Jie was just about to lift his foot.

"Lin Jie, wait a moment." Master Wang suddenly called out to him.

Lin Jie turned his head.

Master Wang looked at him, his eyes showing a rare seriousness: "Earth is not safe. Aliens and otherworldly evil gods are all eyeing this piece of fat meat."

"We monks are, to put it bluntly, just watchdogs of Earth."

"I don't know how far you'll go in the future. But if the earth is destroyed, none of us will have a place to go."

Master Wang patted Lin Jie on the shoulder, forcing a smile: "No matter what happens in the future, remember, Kamar-Taj will always be your home."

"Go ahead, be careful. Those aliens are just a bit ugly, nothing to be afraid of."

Hearing these heartfelt words...

A warm feeling welled up in Lin Jie's heart.

He nodded heavily, turned and rushed into the portal leading to the New York battlefield.
