Marvel: Starting with the Glint-Glint Fruit

The Super Soldier Serum broke the shackles, but their subsequent high-intensity training was not only about building physical strength and improving their life level, but also about forging their will.

The pain from countless training sessions tempers the will, and training with countless teammates creates a sense of belonging and emotional connection.

Therefore, the little witch's will is no less than that of any other warrior in Terra.

On this basis, how do you turn the little witch into a villain?

Unless she witnesses Matthew, Rachel, and everyone else she knows die before her eyes, the entire Terra Empire is destroyed, and human civilization collapses.

That little witch is bound to turn evil.

Who knows, she might just turn around and say she's going to create a world with Matthew, Rachel, and the Terra Empire.

At this point, it wouldn't just be the little witch; if it were Rachel or Natasha, they would probably all turn to the dark side.

What is Wanda's current configuration?

Given these attributes, she is a seasoned white magic sorceress, having reached the level of a sub-father. Now, with the acquisition of runic magic, it's impossible for her to corrupt Wanda with just a little bit of corrupting power from the Dark Tome.

Many people are easily corrupted by practicing dark magic or coming into contact with dark forces.

The problem lies in exploiting flaws in desires and character, but once white magic has been accumulated to a certain level, it becomes easier to resist this corruption.

The standard example is the Ancient One.

A sorcerer of Ancient One's caliber no longer borrows dark power, but directly absorbs it. She literally extracted Dormammu's dark power. Has she turned evil?

Absolutely not. If it weren't for the script being written so that Kaecilius had to let Mordo and Doctor Strange discover that she was drawing on dark power, she could have even erased the dark mark on her forehead so that these people wouldn't find out.

Chapter 419 I Didn't Lose to You, Thor Odinson (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

According to fantasy novels, once you reach a certain level of cultivation, neither good nor evil will affect you.

One is the center and the leader.

If you allow power to affect you, then you simply haven't mastered the art of cultivation.

There is no doubt that the little witch has reached a certain level.

With her unwavering will, high level of magic, and accumulated knowledge, the corruption of the Dark Book would have no effect on her whatsoever.

On the contrary, the dark magic in the Dark Book allows Wanda to swell her power to an astonishing level in a short period of time.

However, the problem is that Wanda has a lot to learn.

White magic, nowadays we need to learn runes, runic magic, and so on, while the black magic in the Dark Book will have to wait its turn.

Thoughts vanish in an instant.

Matthew looked down at the planet, his eyes turning golden, sharp and holy.

In his eyes, the vibrant planet had changed, transforming into a network of lines, spheres composed of blue, purple, red, black, white, and other colors, extending even deeper into the starry sky from these spheres.

These lines, some thick and some thin, represent the entire border of hell.

This is the color palette that Matthew sees in things today.

He has already been able to see deeper levels that ordinary people cannot see.

With a thought, it was as if an invisible hand had manipulated a few lines among these lines, causing them to vibrate slightly and resulting in subtle changes throughout the entire Hell's Border Pocket universe.

He raised his hand.

In an instant, a golden sphere appeared in the palm of his hand, and then the sphere split into countless tiny spheres that shot out in all directions like laser beams.

These tiny spheres were scattered across the border of hell, eventually freezing at an extremely precise distance before disappearing.

These golden spheres did not disappear; rather, they merged into the border of hell.

To the average person, they are hidden, but to Matthew, these spheres are placed on countless lines, forming one node after another.

From a broader perspective, these nodes form a giant magic circle.

Centered on the planet, it connects to the sun, the holy city of Iros, and even the meteorites floating in the starry sky.

Agamdo anchorage boundary.

In the ancient times of Earth, Agamotto, who founded the Mage Alliance, created the massive protective white magic.

In the early days when he was protecting Earth, Dormammu led the legions of the Dark Dimension and other dimensional invaders to frequently tear apart dimensional walls.

The weak Earth was powerless to resist, so Agamotto traveled all over the world and carved out an "anchor runestone" formed from his own divine power at the nodes with the most abundant ley line energy on the three continents. He then built three sanctuaries around the runestones in London, New York and Hong Kong.

The core logic of the barrier is to "lock dimensional coordinates." Any external entity that has not been authenticated by the key left by Agamotto cannot anchor its position in the Earth dimension.

The Sorcerers of the Ages continued to refine this magic, eventually evolving into the magical barriers we see on Earth today.

The amplification of dimensional suppression means that powerful life forms from other dimensions need to expend more energy to descend into the main universe, and their strength will be forcibly suppressed, preventing them from unleashing their full power.

This is a magic that has been perfected by generations of Sorcerers Supreme.

Matthew naturally learned it as well. This kind of magic is not difficult to master, but the real difficulty lies in how to establish ground nodes to form a solidified magical barrier over the entire protected planetary region.

And it can also provide protection for a long time.

Matthew, however, changed direction slightly, because what he solidified was the entire border of Hell.

He wants to completely lock down the entire pocket universe.

Unlike the barriers created on Earth by Agamotto and the Sorcerers Supreme throughout history, Matthew's barrier is more stable and its protective power is stronger.

Because this pocket universe is dominated by Matthew.

Matthew can mobilize the entire frontier of Hell at any time.

It should be noted that this power is so immense that it is enough for him to contend with Dormammu, who is at the T0 level of a single universe.

He linked the barrier to the entire border of hell.

If someone wants to break into the borders of Hell, there is only one way: to forcibly blast it apart with power far exceeding that of the borders of Hell.

A magical barrier is a device that can utilize existing power to transform it into certain special effects and amplify them far beyond what is required.

But this is not enough.

On the planet, it is also necessary to build something similar to three mage sanctuaries, which can be interconnected and transmit data to each other in the most stable triangular balance.

These three largest nodes control the entire magical barrier of Hell's Border.

Not only can it mobilize the magical elements of the borderlands of hell, but it can also amplify the effects of magical barriers with the help of the Grey Knights, Raven Warriors, and even Matthew.

Matthew also left himself a backup plan.

As the saying goes, a cunning rabbit has three burrows.

Matthew worried that if, for some reason, Limbo were to face an extremely powerful adversary in the future, he would need to instantly teleport away the Terran people living on Limbo.

He had no desire to repeat the same path as Ragnarok in Asgard.

Hela's attack and the fire giant Surturt's rebirth through the Eternal Flame led to the destruction of Asgard. Surprisingly, Asgard had no other means to allow its people to escape.

Ultimately, only a few hundred Asgardian refugees escaped on spaceships.

This was simply intolerable to Matthew.

Therefore, this large magic circle also needs to be equipped with a massive two-way or even multi-way teleportation function that can be connected.

One is Earth.

One Earth isn't enough; Matthew figured he needed to find several more dimensions similar to Limbo.

Ideally, there should be dozens or even hundreds.

The word "stability" is ingrained in Matthew's DNA.

The main focus is on being as stable as a rock.

If Matthew has gone this far and his opponent is still able to find his backup plan and deal with it in one go, then Matthew will have to accept it.

Of course, his ideas still need to be developed gradually over time.

The first step has been completed; the second step is to establish the triangular magic node.

......

Asgard, in the Great Palace.

Fandral, Volstagg, Hogan, Sif, and all the Asgardian commanders and high-ranking officials gathered together.

And Thor stood in front of everyone.

Kneeling before him were two Asgardian guards escorting him and Loki, who had committed a heinous crime.

"Loki Odinson, you plotted to overthrow Asgard, colluded with the Frost Giants, and murdered your brother. I, in the will of Odin, judge you, stripping you of your identity and your glory, and imprison you in the harshest of environments, where you will be accompanied only by endless night and loneliness."

Sol's booming voice echoed throughout the palace.

Loki, disheveled and dressed in tattered clothes, raised his head at this moment. He looked up at Thor and saw his brother, who was filled with heartache and anger.

grin.

“You have won, Saul, but I have not lost to you, but to my arrogance.”

"take away."

Thor closed his eyes slightly.

Chapter 420 Loki's Exile (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

Loki was escorted away, watched by the Warriors Three, Sif, and other Asgardian leaders and high-ranking officials.

Everyone remained silent.

There was confusion, there was doubt, but there was mostly anger.

Many of them hesitated to speak, but when they saw Thor, who seemed utterly exhausted, they exchanged glances and chose to leave.

Time was left to Saul.

Sif wanted to stay, but Fandral and Hogan dragged her away.

The light and shadow shone on Thor, leaving only loneliness.

Loki said Thor won, which is both right and wrong; Thor never wanted to win this way.

And the one who won was his own brother, Loki.

He didn't want to put Loki on trial either, because he knew that such a trial would mean Loki would be stripped of everything, and that it would become a permanent label and shame on Loki.

Loki will also lose his eligibility to enter Valhalla.

He will only grow old in loneliness and solitude.

This wasn't Thor eliminating a rival vying for the throne, but rather an older brother losing his younger brother.

Thor's once upright figure had become somewhat hunched over, and he exuded an aura of sorrow.

He closed his eyes, reflecting on the past.

On Earth, in Novig, he reflected on his relationship with Loki. He couldn't understand how his brothers, who had fought side by side and shared a deep bond, had come to this.

Was it a desire for the throne? Or jealousy of himself?

Why be jealous?

If Loki were better or more outstanding than him, as his brother, he would be happy for him, not want to kill him.

This is not the way Asgardians do things.

Or is it...?

A shadow crossed Thor's face as he recalled something Heimdall had said to him privately while he was receiving treatment.

"Thor, Loki can control the Frostbox. He used it to freeze me."

A simple sentence was enough for Thor to understand what Heimdall wanted to express.
