The era of American comics begins

Chapter 48 Help each other
An apartment suite in Brooklyn early in the morning.

The faint morning light shone through the gauze curtain into the white bedroom, as if covered with a hazy veil.The girl was wrapped in a blanket and lying on one side on a soft bed, with brilliant blond hair and long eyelashes.

The alarm clock was set for seven, but she woke up before 06:30.She tossed and turned on the bed for a quarter of an hour, but she really didn't feel sleepy at all, so she had to sit up early.

She turned off the alarm clock, got up quickly, brushed her teeth, and dressed.She changed out of her pajamas, hesitated for a while to choose from the ebony wardrobe, and finally chose a set of clothes that she was satisfied with.

After breakfast, everything was ready, she put on her backpack, and went to the stone steps of the gate early to wait.

Gwen Groveney, a 16-year-old high school girl, just moved to New York a week ago, a transfer student from High School 163—at least that's what all her relevant files show.

By the way, today is her first day of school.

She recognized the car that came to pick her up from the end of the street 800 meters away. After all, even in New York, you can't see such a stylish stretch limousine anytime and anywhere.As expected, the car stopped in front of her, the door opened, and a woman in professional attire with silky light blonde curly hair came out and stood in front of Gwen with a decent manner.

"Gwen Groveney?" she asked.

"Uh huh." Gwen snorted as an answer.

"Elizabeth Betty, Mr. Passo's secretary." The woman introduced herself, "He sent me to pick you up from school."

"So Mr. Passo didn't come?"

"He has other things to do, but I can tell him anything for you." Elizabeth opened the car door, "Come in, we can talk on the way."

Gwen sat in.The driver started the car after the door was closed, and the car moved smoothly down the street.The cab and the rear seat are equipped with a layer of laminated glass filled with sound insulation and damping glue to ensure that the driver cannot hear the conversations of the passengers in the rear seat.

Gwen put down her backpack, sat awkwardly on the luxurious leather seat, and fiddled with her fingers subconsciously.

"Nervous about school?" Elizabeth tried to open the subject.

"Ah, no," Gwen explained, "I just um...never been in a limo. Oh I mean, of course I haven't because theoretically I'm only six months old but from what I remember it's obviously out of the question. Neither did Win Stacy."

Elizabeth nodded with a comprehending expression.

Gwen pretended to be looking at the scenery outside the window, and asked casually after a while: "So Mr. Passo, does he have any news for me?"

Elizabeth thought for a while: "Study hard and make progress every day."

".Is there any more?"

"Try to stay out of trouble," she said, "Mr. Passo hopes that you will try not to use superpowers in your daily life, keep a low profile, just be an ordinary high school girl, and don't cause trouble."

"But he told me that I should make good use of my talents and realize my own meaning?" Gwen raised her eyebrows, "If I shouldn't even use my superpowers, then how can I become valuable?"

Elizabeth patiently explained: "Mr. Passo created a new identity for you, trying to cover you from disappearing under the noses of the CIA, but they certainly still haven't given up looking for a spider girl who can fly over walls. So for the sake of your cover identity, Try to keep a low profile, understand?"

After a pause, she turned to say: "As for the latter part, I shouldn't have to explain it. But don't worry, Mr. Passo has his own arrangements for you. Someone else will contact you after a while, and they will teach you Your fighting skills teach you how to hide yourself. When Mr. Passo thinks you are ready, he will naturally assign you tasks."

Gwen pouted: "I know how to fight."

"Mr. Passo's arrangement is also for your sake, I hope you understand."

Gwen said casually, "I understand. It's just."

It's just that he didn't come here himself to tell me this.

But she swallowed the second half of the sentence quickly.

"how?"

"Ah, nothing." Gwen shook her head and grabbed her backpack.Just at this moment the car stopped opposite the school gate.

"You can contact me if you have any questions or needs." Elizabeth said, "If there is something important, I will help you pass it on to Mr. Passo."

Gwen opened the car door, got out, and with a final wave: "I will. Thanks."

Wanda Maximoff kept her eyes wide open, unblinking, and focused as hard as she could.The crimson transparent energy fluctuations flowed and rolled between her slender fingers like a coagulated stream, constantly changing its shape.

Michael stood a few meters away from her with his arms folded, observing and feeling the magic fluctuations in her palms, and at the same time ordered Shirley to use monitoring equipment to record various forms of energy changes at all times.

After taking the time to study the chaos magic controlled by Wanda for a while, Michael finally had some preliminary understanding of this power.Chaos magic is a kind of black magic, and its function and nature are different from the authentic secret art he learned from the supreme mage.But of course, there are many things in common.

"Okay, all right," Michael said.

The crimson fluctuations dissipated suddenly, Wanda put down her hand, and cast him a questioning look.

"I almost understand." Michael walked to her side, "Your power comes from something called 'chaos magic', the most famous user of which is the ancient evil god Sithorn. But this form of magic power I also I have never seen it before, and I have only learned a little bit through your demonstration so far, so we need to explore together in the future.”

Wanda gave a soft "ah" subconsciously.Michael stopped and asked, “What?”

"You say this...is from an evil god?" Wanda looked blankly at the crimson light rippling from her fingertips, "Is that so?"

"This kind of power is connected to you in some form, and I don't know the reason." Michael said calmly, "But power itself has no right or wrong, just like a pistol. It hurts people or saves them." , This is all based on the meaning of the gunman."

Wanda nodded slightly: "Well, I understand."

"Then in order to make it easier to understand what I'm going to teach you next, let me first explain the basic way I use magic."

Michael paused, and said in a leisurely manner: "First of all, the most basic part of a spell, and its foundation, is the 'spell'. This is a language that has been handed down since the birth of civilization. If you regard the real world as an incomparable A huge program structure, then the 'spell' is the source code for modifying data and applying laws in the real structure."

He stretched out his palms, with his right palm up and his left palm down, pulling a vertical flame-colored line in the opposite direction.Then he rotated his arms counterclockwise, and the lines circled along with his guidance, cutting out a circle-shaped formation with complex patterns in the space.

"I draw energy from other spaces in the multiverse, use energy to build weapons and shields, or temporarily modify the rules of reality to cast some more magical magic."

He spread his five fingers and lightly pressed on the transparent magic circle, and the intricate golden lines immediately disintegrated, gradually dissipating like a mirage.

"I said this just to tell you the principle. But doing so is actually borrowing the power of other higher beings temporarily, and the meaning of borrowing temporarily is that there will be a price. Unless some special methods are used."

Wanda wondered: "A special way?"

"Let's not talk about this for the time being. Your spellcasting doesn't need to draw energy from other spaces and borrow other people's magic power like I just said," Michael said, "because you already have the ability to control the magic power of chaos, which is almost It is an inexhaustible source of magical power, so in theory, there should be no need to consider the cost. So what I want to teach you is just how to use it more skillfully and efficiently, starting from the most basic.

So start the most basic lesson today, which is to use your magical power to forge weapons.Forge a sword, your attack will be more unstoppable, and you can cut through all obstacles in front of you; forge a shield, your defense will be more unbreakable, to protect your own safety; or you can even condense the magic power to one point to enhance Penetrating power and explosive power, like a bullet, penetrates any defense and kills with one blow. "

Wanda stared at the fading sparks in the air, seemingly still digesting.

After thinking for a while, she came back to her senses: "So, you mean you can teach me to use my 'chaos magic power'. Do the same as you?"

Michael shook his head.

"To be precise, we should help each other," he said. "First I help you figure out your own power, and help you master it skillfully. And then I hope that one day in the future, you can help me figure out how I can use it. Can also control 'chaos magic'."
