American comics: Incredible comprehension, hand-crafted forbidden spells

S.H.I.E.L.D. was in complete chaos, and on the rooftop of the New York Sanctum, the Ancient One also made the decision to return to the mountain immediately.

The person who started this chaos was still standing in the middle of the ruins with his eyes closed.

"Lin Jie...that's enough, hurry up and finish! The aliens have left..."

Master Wang wiped the fine beads of cold sweat from his forehead, his voice trembling.

In order to withstand the ever-increasing pressure of fear emanating from Lin Jie, Master Wang forcibly exhausted most of his magical energy.

If he hadn't been so well-prepared, he probably would have already collapsed to his knees and sung "Conquer" like Carter next to him.

This is unbelievable!

Carter made up some random spells, but Lin Jie actually managed to pull them off!

Not only did they master it, but they're also incredibly skilled at using it!

This spell didn't harm anyone or have any special effects, but it still scared a bunch of alien bastards so badly that they ran away in terror and even closed the wormhole in the sky by themselves!

What kind of nonsense is this?!

Master Wang secretly groaned inwardly.

Upon hearing Master Wang's call, Lin Jie slowly opened his eyes and withdrew his projected spiritual energy.

The overwhelming pressure dissipated instantly.

Lin Jie frowned slightly, looking at Master Wang's sweat-drenched appearance, seemingly dissatisfied with his performance: "Master Wang, I thought about it all night, and for now, this is the best I can do to release my pressure. By the way, how's the battle going?"

Lin Jie was completely focused on mobilizing his magic power and had no time to notice what was happening around him.

"To train to this level... is already incredibly abnormal."

Master Wang shook his head with a wry smile. "The Chitauri army has all fled."

What the hell do they want?!

You've mastered the magic I made up to the point where it can scare away an alien fleet, and you're still not satisfied?!

Do you only feel happy when you've scared the entire population of New York into a nervous breakdown?

Master Wang secretly wiped away a cold sweat and waved his hand: "Alright, the crisis is over. Let's go back to Kamar-Taj."

Lin Jie nodded, still silently reviewing the feeling of casting the spell, completely ignoring Carter and Lilia who were sprawled on the ground.

He raised his hand and quickly drew a circle in mid-air, and the golden portal opened instantly.

Lin Jie didn't even turn his head and stepped inside.

Watching Lin Jie disappear into the portal.

Carter then struggled to his feet and got up from the ground.

His legs were still shaking involuntarily.

"Grand Master...this kid is terrifying..." Carter wailed, his voice trembling with tears.

"well--"

Master Wang let out a long sigh.

In any case, these anxious days are finally coming to an end.

Judging by the time, the Sorcerer Supreme should be returning to Kamar-Taj soon.

When the time comes, we can just pass this hot potato to her and let her have her own headache.

Master Wang's hands trembled slightly as he managed to draw a portal: "Let's go back."

Carter was on the verge of tears: "Grand Master, please wait a moment, my legs are really weak, I can't walk anymore."

"..." Master Wang rolled his eyes. "Look at you, so pathetic!"

......

The scene shifts.

Kamar-Taj, the Temple of the Ancient One.

Quiet room.

All the core mages who had reached the level of temple protectors were urgently summoned.

Master Gu Yi changed into a plain white monk's robe and sat quietly on the futon in the center.

His expression remained the same as usual—mysterious and serene, showing no sign of emotion.

"Supreme Master!"

The impatient Master Mordo, having just finished his greetings, spoke up immediately: "The force that erupted in downtown New York City today is simply incomprehensible! It's terrifying! We must immediately uncover the truth and find the mastermind behind it. Kamar-Taj cannot tolerate such an evil force existing on Earth!"

Modu was always fiercely opposed to evil and could not tolerate any injustice.

Upon hearing these words, Master Wang, who was standing to the side, immediately looked somewhat embarrassed.

"Senior Brother," Master Wang hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help but retort, "You haven't even investigated thoroughly, so what makes you so sure that power is evil?"

These words were spoken.

All the mages present were stunned.

You should know that Master Wang is usually a quiet person; apart from managing the library, he rarely speaks at meetings.

Today, he actually spoke up for the first time ever, and even directly contradicted Senior Brother Modu?

The Ancient One slightly raised her eyes, her gaze falling on the Wang Master: "It seems you know the whole story?"

Master Wang steeled himself and stepped forward, bowing his head to report, "Yes, Your Excellency. I know who created that energy today. His name is Lin Jie, an apprentice we just recruited a few days ago. But just yesterday, he passed the assessment and was promoted to trainee master."

Mordo: ......

Gu Yi: ......

All the mages present: ......

The quiet room fell into a deathly silence.

What the hell? !

You're telling us that the terrifying force that suffocated the entire heart of New York City and terrified the Chitauri army was created by a mere apprentice at Kamar-Taj?!

"Master Wang," Mordo frowned, his tone stern, "this kind of joke is not to be taken lightly. You never lie."

Modu felt that Master Wang must have been stunned by the magical pressure just now, and was talking nonsense.

The entire room fell silent.

Modu's brows were furrowed into a tight knot.

Even if the sorcerer Wang said that a certain archmage in Kamar-Taj had suddenly become much more powerful, Mordo would believe it without batting an eye.

But what is Master Wang saying now?

A novice apprentice created a terrifying aura that enveloped all of New York City, scaring away an alien fleet?

"You've gone a bit too far with that joke," Mordo said coldly, his tone full of disbelief.

Upon hearing this, Master Wang was so anxious that tears almost welled up in his eyes. His face flushed red as he retorted, "Senior Brother, I never lie!"

Modu snorted coldly.

Not lying?

You call this not lying?

This is outrageous!

How could the senior disciple not know the true capabilities of an apprentice who doesn't even possess much magic?

"Fine, then tell me, where did this apprentice get such a massive amount of magical energy?" Mordo stared at the mage, his face clearly saying, "Let's see how you explain this."

It would have been better if this matter hadn't been brought up, because once it was, the grievances in Master Wang's heart were like water bursting from a dam.

He looked pitifully at the Ancient One sitting on the futon, his voice trembling with emotion: "Sorcerer Supreme... our Kamar-Taj has brought in a living prodigy of magic! He can learn anything I teach him! If you don't come back and take over, I'm really going to be driven crazy by him."

Upon hearing "you will learn anything you are taught," a slight ripple appeared in the usually calm eyes of the Ancient One.

She suddenly remembered what had happened a couple of days ago.

Odin tore through space and stormed into Kamar-Taj, his purpose seemingly to take an apprentice.

Could it be... that the person Odin is looking for is the kid named Lin Jie that Master Wang mentioned?

"How do you teach someone to learn something?" Before Gu Yi could speak, Mordo couldn't help but ask.

Master Wang, as if grasping at a straw, began to pour out his grievances: "Senior Brother, you don't know! That kid Lin Jie, after watching Carter demonstrate the string-pulling technique once, forty minutes later, he conjured a magic shield!"

"I went back to sleep, and the next day I managed to get the Crimson Chains out!"

"Another day passed, and without even wearing his slingshot, he casually drew a portal."

"The door opened, and of all times, it opened right into the royal palace of Asgard! Odin was nearly driven mad with rage!"

Master Wang became more and more excited as he spoke, took a deep breath, and then dropped a bombshell.

"That's not all! Carter and I were afraid he'd mess things up, so to keep him occupied, we made up a whole new trick called 'Fear Magic' to fool him..."

"Who would have thought! This kid thought about it all night and actually mastered this made-up magic! And he even went to New York to perform it!"

After Master Wang finished speaking, the main hall fell silent.

Mordo's eyes widened, and the Ancient One also glanced sideways.

As for the other mages nearby, their jaws nearly dropped to the ground.

What the hell?

Fear magic?

Can you really practice magic that's just made up?

"You mean..." Mordo felt his mind was starting to go blank, "The oppressive atmosphere in downtown New York City, and the Chitauri army's escape, were all because Lin Jie used that fabricated fear spell?"

Master Wang nodded frantically, like he was pounding garlic.

"Pfft—Hahaha!"

Seeing Master Wang's serious expression, Mo Du, who was usually rigid and serious, actually burst into laughter for the first time ever.

Modu's smile caused the surrounding monks to burst into laughter as well.

The solemn atmosphere in the main hall was instantly swept away.

"Senior Brother, what are you laughing at?" Master Wang was almost frantic with worry.

This is clearly an extremely terrifying thing, so what's so funny about it!

Modu suppressed a laugh and patted Master Wang on the shoulder: "Master Wang, did you feel the atmosphere was too depressing today, so you made up a joke to cheer everyone up?"

"The ridiculous things you just told me, let alone an apprentice, even if you searched the entire history of magic, no one could have done them! There's a limit to making up lies, isn't there?"

Mordo truly doesn't understand now.

Master Wang is usually so honest and straightforward, why is he talking nonsense today? Did he suffer some kind of shock?

Seeing everyone looking at him like he was an idiot, Master Wang completely lost his temper.

I have a bitter pill to swallow!

"Supreme Mage!" The King Mage whirled around, his hands rapidly forming a mudra. "Disciple Wang swears an oath before the Triune God of Magic, Vishanti! If I have uttered even a single falsehood, may my soul be instantly annihilated!"

These words were spoken.

Modu's laughter caught in his throat, and all the laughter in the hall stopped abruptly.

Oath magic!

This is not the kind of casual oath sworn to the heavens that ordinary people make. In Kamar-Taj, the Vishanti will immediately sense the use of oath magic.

If you lie, your soul will really be taken away on the spot!

No mage would risk their soul for a joke.

Could it be...?

"Your Majesty... have you gone mad? To make us believe your fabricated story, you even dared to use the oath of Vishanti?"

Modu stared at Master Wang in shock, his voice changing.

At this moment, the Ancient One remained sitting there quietly, without saying a word, but her gaze became profound.

"I'm not lying to you! Everything I said is true!" Master Wang stamped his feet anxiously, the veins on his neck bulging. "If you don't believe me, go teach him yourselves! Anyone who tries will be driven crazy!"

"Alright! I'd like to see just who this person is!"

Mordo had a fiery temper, and simply waved his hand:

"Wang, go and bring that Lin Jie here!"

"If he's really as monstrous as you say, I'll just give him my position as the senior disciple!"
