Compared with the one-year return time limit given in the first world, this time not only did Lu Xiao not have the opportunity to independently choose the time to complete the task, but the return time limit was shortened to one month.
Lu Xiao, who was still a little depressed, was not in the mood to study the rewards given by the mission for the time being. After repairing the core structures of the two temples, Lu Xiao, Wang and others brought the body of Ancient One back to Kama Taj.
In the occultist's understanding, physical death is not the end of life, but the beginning of a new journey.
Before she died, Ancient One also specifically mentioned that her soul would soon return to the Eternal God.
With Ancient One's tacit approval...or deliberate guidance, Lu Xiao read many ancient secret books of Kama Taj, one of which recorded the origin of the Eternal God.
The fundamental reason why spellcasters in the Marvel world can achieve quick success is that their magic power is "borrowed".
The magic absorbed by the caster comes from magical entities in the multiverse. The Eternal God is one of the magical entities at the beginning of the universe. He represents the sum of all time and space concepts in the Marvel Universe.
It is said that the Ancient One once traveled through the multiverse when he was young, and Kama Taj also left her travel diary. It was during this trip that the Ancient One was lucky enough to meet the Eternal God, and thus formed a good relationship.
edge.
The Eternal God is too distant and abstract for ordinary spellcasters. Take the mystics of Kama Taj as an example. The energy absorbed by the mystics, including Lu Xiao, is mainly from another magical entity-Weishan
Provided by the Emperor.
Weishan Emperor is a trinity consisting of three ancient gods on earth, namely Agamotto, Osutu and Hogs.
That's right, Agamotto, the founder of Kama Taj.
This relationship is the fundamental reason why Kama Taj Mystic can absorb a large amount of magic power from the universe. There are people behind us.
When Lu Xiao took over the title of Supreme Mage from Gu Yi, his future was destined to deal with Kama Taj's immediate boss, Wei Shandi.
However, considering that he is about to leave the Marvel world, the research on Emperor Weishan and the Eternal God can be put on the back burner for the time being.
Witnessing with his own eyes that Gu Yi's corpse was merged into the torrent of magic power, decomposed into primitive magic particles and dissipated in the wind, Lu Xiao turned to look at the blank eyes of Wang and Daniel, who had not recovered from serious injuries, and others, and sighed silently in his heart.
"System, after I leave the Marvel Cinematic Universe, how do I calculate the time here? My next arrival will be hundreds of years later, right?"
"Host, please don't worry about this. Unlike Assassin's Creed 2, where the plot line has been completed, the plot of the Marvel Cinematic Universe has not yet ended. Before the host enters the Marvel Cinematic Universe next time, the time of this world will be temporarily frozen."
This is good news. At least Lu Xiao doesn't have to worry about guiding the mystics out of the sadness and confusion of losing Ancient Yi for the time being.
"Then come back, return to the real world, adjust your condition and start again."
"When is the next mission to the world?"
System: "As usual, it will be two weeks before the host can move around freely."
"Will you return immediately?"
"yes."
The moment Lu Xiao agreed to return, the entire world except him was frozen in time.
‘I don’t know what the world mission will be when I return to the Marvel Universe next time. It will definitely be much more difficult than this time.’
…
Lu Xiao was in a daze for a moment. When Lu Xiao came back to his senses, a familiar hotel room appeared in front of him.
"Huh~"
Ignoring the dust and blood stains all over his body, Lu Xiao flopped backwards on the bed, staring blankly at the warm yellow roof of the hotel, as if his consciousness had not yet completely withdrawn from the mission world.
Same.
"Pop!"
About 5 minutes later, Lu Xiao stood up from the bed and patted his cheeks hard.
"We can't stay depressed like this forever. Let's take the responsibility entrusted to us by Ancient One as motivation to keep moving forward."
"System, open the character panel."

"Is it true..."
Putting aside the four-dimensional attributes of growing again, Lu Xiao's attention is mainly focused on the time stone.
As Gu Yi said, as one of the original powers of the Marvel Universe, the Time Stone can exert its greatest power in the Marvel Universe itself, and its quality reaches the highest Legend(s) rating in the system.
Although there is only one level difference between s and a, judging from the quality limit of the Uru Hidden Blade suit, the distance between the two seems to be very far.
Lu Xiao can't make a conclusion for the time being without actual testing as to what role the Time Gem that has been downgraded to A-level can play. But if you think about it carefully, you will know that it is definitely impossible for the gem itself to have endless power like in the Marvel Universe.
magic.
After returning to the ordinary main world, Lu Xiao felt very aggrieved.
Except for a small amount of reserve magic power that he had cultivated in his body, Lu Xiao could no longer absorb magic power from the multiverse. It was like a mild Internet addiction patient who was suddenly forced to disconnect from the Internet, which made him uncomfortable for a while.
"System, is this the case for every world you enter in the future? A world without the concept of magic cannot absorb magic from the outside world?"
"Correct, the host's actions in the mission world must conform to the worldview of the current world."
"For example, in a real world like Resident Evil where there is no magic power, you cannot absorb the magic power from the outside world and use magic to cleanse the ground."
'Is it a disguised way to balance the difficulty between the worlds?'
Lu Xiao touched his chin thoughtfully: "In other words, once I enter the real world, I can only rely on my own abilities to get through. What about magic props? Are there any restrictions?"
"Yes, each magic prop has its own inherent stored energy. Once the energy is used up in the real world, the prop will be temporarily unable to exert its capabilities until the next time it is fully charged."
"Got it."
This setting is a restriction made by the system, or the boss behind the system, in order to prevent Lu Xiao from using spells in the real world.
In other words, Lu Xiao cannot unscrupulously experiment with the time gem's ability in the main world. Once the energy of the gem is exhausted, God knows how long it will take to recharge it.
Before the system announces the next mission world, Lu Xiao must make some emergency preparations. At least he cannot easily use up the energy stored in the props, so as not to be replenished in the next world and unable to come up with a trump card at the critical moment.
"Two weeks, half a month?"
Lu Xiao took off Altaïr's armor, which was stained with blood and stains, walked to the window and opened the curtains.
The sun was still shining brightly outside the hotel, just like it was before Lu Xiao entered the Marvel world. Even the bed wrestling session of the Eastern European couple next door wasn't over yet... it was lasting enough.
"It doesn't matter whether it's long or short. Anyway, let's go back to China first. We'll think about the specific plans slowly on the plane."
