Although the entrance to Kama Taj is an inconspicuous little broken door, which looks like an old bungalow on the outside, the space is unexpectedly large after entering. After passing through the wide front yard, there is a magnificent palace complex with countless
There are many ancient palaces here, obviously connected to other spaces by some kind of magic.
During the meal, Master Modu led Richard through the backyard and came to a palace with an open door. The palace was quite lively, with many mages in robes and practice uniforms coming and going. There were many tables and chairs in the palace.
, many people were eating at the table with dinner plates. There was a cooking window in front. A squinting mage was shaking a spoon in his hand. In front of him were three taels of meat and vegetable dishes and a round big bucket full of rice.
The sense of déjà vu in the cafeteria...
Richard followed suit and got a plate between the other mages to make rice. He glanced at the plate briefly and saw that there was curry and roasted pork. He was thinking about the temple before.
Will all the mages become vegetarians?
He asked for a curry roast pork from the mage who was cooking. The mage's eyes were almost two slits, and he didn't know whether they were open or not. Anyway, he didn't care that this was a strange face in front of him. When he heard Richard
If so, one spoonful of it would go down on the plate of curry roast pork.
As a result, this spoonful was full of potatoes, and it looked like just three pieces of meat. Just when Richard was thinking that three pieces would be fine, the mage shook his hand and it turned into two pieces, and then shook it again.
, only one piece is left.
Wow, Master, you really didn’t learn this trick from some cafeteria lady, did you? I see that your technique is skillful and your movements are smooth, I’m afraid your skill is not as good as that of the cafeteria lady!
When Richard was a student, he felt that the lady in the cafeteria was definitely not an ordinary person because she had the unique skill of shaking her hands to lock and drop meat. Now it seems that the lady in the cafeteria is also a secret master of hidden skills.
But one thing to say, the temple food tasted surprisingly good, and Richard had been mentally prepared to get a box of instant noodles.
After dinner, Richard had nothing to do, so he simply went out and wandered around the holy land. After wandering under the buildings for a long time, he found the magic performance field of the mages. At this time, the sun was shining brightly, and the scorching sun was hanging.
The ground was as hot as a steamer. Mages in robes lined up neatly, shouting loud slogans on the martial arts field. That scene reminded Richard of the radio gymnastics he did during his student days.
.
Well, although there must have been countless seniors who have complained about this issue, but now that he was in the situation, he felt that he still had an obligation to complain about it again——
——A bunch of you mages are practicing like this "hey hey hey" from dawn to dusk, can you really learn any high-end spells?
He felt strange when he was watching the movie. Look at what the mages in the MCU movies look like. They chant spells and form gorgeous magic circles. With a burst of sparks flying, special effects that cost money at a glance condense into dazzling swords.
Then...then he went up with his sword and struck.
Let’s look at the mages in other works. When they cast spells, the light and shadow effects fill the sky, the magic circles follow one after another, and a series of gorgeous AOEs are dazzling... (except Gandalf)
But if you want to say that the Marvel mages are like this, slashing with swords is their only way of fighting... It doesn't seem to be the case. At least the mages in the comics are equally brilliant when casting spells, what about high output and high output?
Damage spells are child's play, they can even affect time and space and touch the level of world laws, which is quite powerful.
In the movie, only Doctor Strange, who joined the Avengers later in the team, seemed to have that idea, and I don’t know why. Is it because those gorgeous high-end spells are too difficult, and other people are too weak to learn them?
Don't understand.
The mages of Kama Taj didn't shy away from suspicion. He stood on the side and looked at the mages without minding it at all. After a while, another mage took the initiative to come over and asked: "It seems to be a new face I have never seen before."
Ah. Are you a new apprentice?"
Richard looked him up and down. The mage had a square face, a determined expression, and a fierce look in his eyes, but his attitude was quite friendly. More importantly, he always felt that this man looked a little familiar.
...
"So be it." Richard nodded, "Mage Mordo brought me here, but he told me to wait first, saying that I would have to wait for the Supreme Mage to decide whether to teach me the spell or not."
"It turns out to be the apprentice brought back by Mordu." The mage nodded, "I am Master Casillas, you can call me by my name directly."
Richard froze and looked at him again - paying special attention to his eyes.
I bet this is Casillas? The kid who later betrayed the Supreme Mage, stole a bunch of magic tomes, and finally took refuge in Dormammu?
Richard said that without the panda-like dark circles under his eyes, he really didn’t recognize him for a while...
Casillas noticed something different in his eyes: "What?"
"Oh nothing."
It's just a pity. Look at such an upright young man, why wouldn't he think about running away to join the ugly Dormammu who is actually not very powerful?
In the end, the strength didn't get much stronger, but the person was transformed into a non-mainstream, looking like a human being or a ghost...
However, Casillas was quite nice at this time: "If you are interested, you might as well learn some basics from us first. Although technically new disciples need to meet the Supreme Mage before starting, they only need to learn some basics first.
It’s not a problem either.”
Oh? Is there such a good thing?
Richard naturally had no reason to refuse.
So Master Casillas began to explain: "Many people don't understand, but magic is actually one of the ways to explore and apply the principles of this world. Spells are like the source code of the application world. We use spells to analyze
The origin of the real world and programming it to do magic."
As he spoke, he began to demonstrate. Richard watched as he stretched out his hands, and his fingertips drew a hot line with sparks. As he turned his hands, it transformed into a circular magic circle with complicated words engraved in the middle.
pattern.
"Using spells, we can forge shields, forge weapons, and cast spells."
Richard watched as the gestures of his hands continued to change, and the shape of the magic circle also rotated and changed rapidly, and the patterns became more and more complex. He suddenly couldn't help but interrupt and asked: "So what do you mean...
.. To cast a spell is to forge a shield or weapon? To... fight with others? "
Casillas was stunned for a moment, not understanding what he meant: "Then what do you think it should be like?"
"Um, like some spells that are more like a mage?" Richard thought for a moment, "For example... fireball or something?"
