American Comics: Beginning with Luke the Maker

Chapter 251 Communication and [Trouble] Dongyin

Courtyard.

Tri-Wing Building.

"Listen, Mage Strange, we need further cooperation, closer! Deeper! Only in this way can we deal with increasingly complicated situations." Nick Fury poured Strange a glass coffee. "Try it, it's from Geisha Forest in Ethiopia."

The levitation cloak that Strange was wearing obediently held out a piece of cloth, like a human finger, and nimbly helped Strange take the coffee that Nick handed over.

"What are you referring to?" Strange took a sip of his coffee, raised his legs, crossed his fingers, hanging above his knees, and asked with a look at Nick's face.

"Luke is getting bigger and bigger." Nick turned around and brought himself a cup of coffee, "We have to plan ahead and prepare for the worst."

"With all due respect, Luke is still a bit measured. You are a little too worried." Strange said.

"Just pretend I'm worrying. But you know, I've spent my life guarding against all kinds of surprises. I've always wanted to nip them in the bud, or before danger could do more damage to the world. Get rid of it." Nick said seriously: "I believe Luke has a sense of proportion, but there are always accidents, right? For example, the invasion of the dark monarch last time..."

"That's part of the plan." Strange explained: "In fact, I only found out later that the entire enchantment has been quietly upgraded by my teacher, Mage Ancient One, and she still has a spare. According to her words In other words, with the support of new energy, she can re-establish the enchantment at any time and drive out the lord of the dark dimension. I suspect that she wants to give the Holy of Holies a major upgrade."

"Do you think this behavior is reasonable?" Nick frowned.

"If you are referring to the actions of the Ancient One Mage, then I can only say that she has seen far more than you." Strange stroked a certain gemstone inside his clothes, gently the way.Only those who have used the Eye of Agamotto will know how terrible it is to grasp the future.

"Master Gu Yi must have seen the result. She just obeyed the future she chose."

"I have no intention of questioning Mage Ancient One, because as the guardian of this planet, she has made more contributions to the safety of this planet than anyone else. I am just a little worried." Nick smiled helplessly.

"What are you worried about?" Strange raised his eyebrows and asked back.

"Fear that we won't be able to contribute when we need to. In fact, this feeling of powerlessness has grown stronger over the years. I used to think that I could control everything, but it turned out to be just a delusion. I thought I was able to isolate the supernatural forces of this planet from affecting the normal world, but later found that I couldn't do that either. Finally, I wanted to contribute to the comfort of this world, but now I find that there is a real danger of destroying the world. , I can only watch. This feeling is very bad, and I can't accept this." Nick leaned his back on his desk, facing Strange who was sitting across from him.

"I can tell." Strange shrugged. "You're not one to sit idle."

"I'd rather be idle, but the premise is that there will always be peace. It's not that there is a crisis of annihilation every three days, and I can only beat the side drums and play support. Sometimes I even have to accept that I can't even support myself. Neither." Nick grinned.

"This is a bit exaggerated." Strange smiled.

"Exaggeration? Since Thor from Asgard came here, do you really think this world is still normal? Can you still maintain the relative peace before? I have worked hard to form a strong team, I want them to be the counterattack cards of this planet. But in fact, they are unable to handle many disasters." Nick said slowly: "So I think I should go one step further."

"So you chose a mage?" Strange put the coffee cup in his hand on the coffee table supported by the levitation cloak with his own body, rested his right elbow on the armrest, and pressed his fist-like palm against his. side face.

"In fact, there are other people. It's just that I think I should talk to you first. You have a very high position in my heart." Nick also put the quilt on the desk behind him, and stretched his arms, Leaning on the edge of the desk, he said with a serious and serious expression.

"But mages are not a generalized power. They are magical, and they can choose people." Strange said.

"There are people in S.H.I.E.L.D. There are also people in this world. We cooperate, and S.H.I.E.L.D. can provide you with the talents you need. And it doesn't prevent you from selecting and cultivating your core strength in your own way." Nick leaned slightly forward.

"I don't think this is a good idea. In fact, instead of expecting us to cultivate mage power for you, you might as well go to Luke or Stark and use the power of science and technology to improve." Strange spread out He clapped his hands: "I don't know what magic is in your opinion. It may be omnipotent, a power beyond human imagination. It is indeed very powerful, but this kind of power is accompanied by huge risks. The mage chooses people from the same line. Rules, perhaps for the best.

Believe me, those agents under your command have mastered magical powers, and that may be the disaster for you and the world.Those sources of magic are not easy to mess with.You don't want to have more messy dimensional creatures on this planet every day, right?Who knows if those mages will summon some difficult characters?Even if there is an enchantment, the big ones can't get in, but the small ones are enough to wipe out a city. "

"I know what you think, and I understand your worries. The power of a mage in the past was indeed powerful and accompanied by huge risks and crises. After all, the power of a mage was essentially a kind of borrowing and exchange at that time. But the situation is different now Is it right?" Nick obviously guessed what Strange would say, and pointedly pointed out: "We have our own new energy. According to Luke and you, this energy is versatile and can act as a mage. their source of energy."

"The new energy also has various sequelae. I believe you are also aware of this. It's just that compared with the risks and costs that mages used to borrow power, the new energy bears less and is easier to accept.

My suggestion is still to use the super equipment that Luke made for you.Magic is not suited to an organization like yours.What's more, other mages would not agree. "Strange also told the truth at the end.

"But you are the Supreme Sorcerer." Nick reminded Strange.

"I am the supreme mage, but I am not my teacher, Gu Yi. Almost all the current mages are cultivated by her little by little over hundreds of years. They will not reject any proposal from the teacher, but this kind of respect and fanaticism , doesn't carry over to me.

In fact, let me tell the truth, maybe everything is fine now, but in the future the group of mages will inevitably be split because of the new energy. Strange felt a headache when he thought of the corner of the future he was peeking at.

"Split?" Nick's eyes darkened.

"The characteristics of new energy are infection and assimilation. The more you use a certain emotion, the closer your character will be to a similar emotion. And the closer to a similar emotion, the more power you will gain from it. Look at that As a captain, he is almost becoming the incarnation of some kind of virtue now. What's more frightening is that this is his active choice. Subconsciously, it has been deeply ingrained." Strange smiled wryly. "I suspect that even if he uses magic to distort his spirit and character, the power of his emotions will not match for a while. In turn, he will either get rid of the influence of magic, or his combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced."

"Luke did tell me about these hidden dangers, but I didn't expect it to be so serious?" Nick couldn't help showing surprise on his face.He had indeed heard Luke talk about this, and he was nervous for a long time. He mobilized a group of top psychologists to keep abreast of and record the mental state and personality changes of those agents who had been using the new energy for a long time.

But in the long run, I don't know if it's the psychologist's credit or Luke exaggerated the hidden dangers. The agents who use the new energy have not changed much.In particular, elite agents themselves have the ability to regulate their own emotions and psychological problems.

"You are using filtered and purified energy. While it reduces its power, it also brings you a correspondingly milder impact and a longer period of safe use. But mages are different. In scientific terms, we at least You need to master the skills of high-power output and input! You need to get in touch with and understand its essence more deeply. That is a double-edged sword." Strange said.

"In the world of magic, all power has a price. It's just the price. Compared with those dimensional powers, the cost and troubles of new energy are smaller, and they are easier to be accepted. The only thing I'm not sure about In the future, it is whether Luke can come up with newer technologies to update and help make the hidden dangers smaller."

"God knows how embarrassing it is for me to face Master Modu now. Under the influence of the new energy, his jealousy towards me can hardly be suppressed."

At the end, Strange sighed deeply, with a helpless expression on his face.

Most mages have some kind of obsession, and this kind of obsession tends to amplify one of them after being exposed to new energy.Strange has always believed that Master Casillas' depravity was not only due to Dormammu's bewitching, perhaps there was also some new energy infection.After all, Master Casillas himself is a relatively gloomy person with slightly extreme ideas.He has talent and talent, and on the premise of not doing any protection and focusing on power, he is more deeply infected by the assimilation of new energy than most mages.

More power to draw.

Higher energy supply.

Equals deeper infection and assimilation.

Generally, mages will neutralize and buffer with other spiritual and emotional energy, and will not always be immersed in a certain emotion.But Master Casillas and his followers obviously did not do this.

Master Gu Yi was fine when he was there, but now he has become the Supreme Master. Master Modu, who has been mediating very well before, seems to have signs of being immersed in a certain emotion for a long time.

Nick was speechless for a while.He found that some bad changes seemed to have taken place in the current group of mages.In other words, there have always been signs of such a bad change, but the prestige and strength of Master Gu Yi are too high, making this sign always in a silent state before it sprouts.But now that Mage Ancient One has resigned from the position of Supreme Mage and left, Strange, who took over, has not yet achieved the god-like status of Mage Ancient One in the hearts of mages, so it is obvious that some mages are in various places Under the auspices of these factors, some kind of hidden psychological changes have taken place.

I don't know if this change is good or bad, but there is a high probability that it should not be very good for Strange.

"You have difficulties too." Nick recalled the time when he had just taken over S.H.I.E.L.D., empathizing with him, stepped forward emotionally and wanted to pat Strange on the shoulder.But soon, before the palm of his hand touched Strange's shoulder, he was blocked by the corner of his clothes like flies were being chased away by the levitation cloak on his body.

"It's impossible to help you train mages for the time being, but I can let some mages who are willing to contact the world come to you as part-time jobs. I believe some young mages will be happy to earn some extra money, or gain some combat experience or something .” Strange thought for a while, and still made a promise.

"Thank you so much!" Nick, who had already felt hopeless, was overjoyed when he heard this.Communication failure is nothing, Nick has the confidence and time to slowly achieve his goals.Although the original plan was not achieved this time, it was a good start.

Strange wanted those young mages to hone their minds in the world.Because of the emergence of new energy, the number of mages has increased, and not everyone is suitable for the penance of mages.

Strictly speaking, S.H.I.E.L.D., which owns new energy shares, can barely be regarded as a member of an interest group.You can't let those mages go to work for Luke's black heart, can you?
"I can provide you with a low-interest loan, and you can go buy some of the latest equipment from Luke. Believe me, he has good stuff in his hand! If you can dig it out, you don't need those agents under your command to become mages , can also possess great power. I believe Luke has a plan." Before leaving, Strange turned around and gave Nick a bit of bullets, and provided him with a batch of bullets.

He has a lot of things on his mind right now, not only internal troubles, but he vaguely feels that some big troubles will come to him soon.He has used the Eye of Agamotto to predict and observe the timeline many times, but he has not found anything.This situation is either due to his overthinking, or some powerful dimensional demon gods are involved.In other words, he was in big trouble!
Will it be Dormammu?

I haven't had time to observe his situation yet.

The abyss can't erupt so fast, can it?
