Extraordinary North America: Where are the magical partners?

Chapter 326: Enlighten Tony (Daily)

Kama Taj.

The courtyard where mages usually practiced spells was now unusually crowded. Not only was there a surge of people on the ground, but the sky was also filled with layers of human shadows, as if a thick dark cloud had cast a shadow over the entire Kamar-Taj.

Strange widened his eyes at the unbelievable scene in front of him - thousands of Rangos, all identical in appearance, figure and temperament, as if copied and pasted.

Although he was mentally prepared, he was still shocked by the scene before him and was speechless.

"How on earth did you do it?"

He repeated this question in his mind countless times, but he still couldn't understand why Rango could learn magic so quickly!
Even though he had just returned from Vishanti's magical world, he was already able to cast a powerful spell, the Form of Archon, which could create countless physical clones.

Could this guy be having an affair with Vishanti?
At the same time, Rango himself in the air was also sighing that the magic of the Marvel Universe was truly amazing.

He looked around at the densely packed clones around him. With just a thought, these clones seemed to come to life and turned to look at him.

Under his control, two points of scarlet light bloomed in the eyes of thousands of clones at the same time.

“Buzz buzz—!”

In an instant, thousands of blazing gazes shot towards the sky like lasers. The surrounding ice and snow quickly melted under this powerful force. Even Kamar-Taj in the Himalayas seemed to be surrounded by an invisible heat wave, and the temperature suddenly rose to an unbearable level.

"Tsk tsk."

Rango looked at this scene with a complicated expression on his face, neither satisfied nor disappointed. He frowned and retracted the spell called the Shape of Archon.

In an instant, those clones retreated like the tide and merged into his body one after another.

Recalling that in the movie Strange used this move to summon hundreds of clones, and bound Thanos tightly with crimson chains condensed by magic power, Rango once thought that the clones could inherit all the power and skills of the original body.

However, after trying it just now, he found that this was not the case.

Whether it is the strong body of the giant god or the destructive power of the atomic fist, these skills derived from the system cannot be possessed by the clones.

These clones can only use the thermal vision obtained from "Compound No. 5".

However, due to the lack of the giant god's body as a driving force, the power of the heat vision released by these clones is far different from his own.

"Really? I waited so long for nothing."

Rango sighed secretly in his heart, but was not too disappointed.

If these clones really possessed the same strength as him, then he wouldn't have to bother going to Asgard or the Dwarf Planet. He could simply use the human wave tactics to capture all the ancient gods of the original world.

I’m afraid that if God met me at that time, he would have to shout “Dear God”.

He shrugged, put aside the distracting thoughts, and turned his gaze to Tony, who was sitting in a chair, stroking Yumi's hair while holding a cup of hot tea.

"Hey, man, put your armor on."

"what?"

"I just learned a new magic and want to try out its effects. Don't ask too many questions. You may not understand even if I tell you. Just fire a missile at me and we'll see the effect."

"."

Tony was speechless, but reluctantly put down Yuumi and the hot tea, and gently touched the reactor on his chest. In an instant, the nanomaterials covered his body like a trickle of water, and the Iron Man armor appeared.

He raised his palm and aimed at Rango in the air, and a micro missile slowly rose from the mechanical arm. Although this missile was small, it condensed many of Tony's black technologies and was far more powerful than ordinary missiles.

"Whoosh-"

The missile cut through the air and flew towards Rango at supersonic speed.

He has fought side by side with Rango more than once and is well aware of how outrageous the opponent's defense is. Tony expected that the effect of the missile hitting Rango might be as insignificant as that of Hammer Industries' "Ex-wife" missile.

However, the next scene directly overturned Tony's cognition.

The moment the missile touched Rango, a dazzling blue light burst out. The flames after the missile head exploded turned into dancing blue butterflies, flying away in all directions.

"Waterfa?!"

Tony stood there in shock. No matter how hard he thought, he could not explain this phenomenon scientifically.

Yuumi floated into the air curiously, waved her claws to catch a fleeing butterfly, and put it under her nose to sniff it.

“It’s really a butterfly!”

She excitedly waved the butterfly on her claws at Tony and the others, and then... swallowed it into her mouth.

Rango slowly descended from the air and patted Yumi's head with a smile.

Although this little guy looks cute, he has an incredibly big appetite and likes to stuff anything new into his mouth.

It’s hard to change a cat’s nature!
However, the spell of this ancient body named Hoggs is indeed powerful, much stronger than the previous clone spell.

If this move is practiced to perfection, all attacks from the enemy can be transformed into harmless substances. This is simply a miracle!

Rango's thoughts went back to a while ago.

After being blasted out of the dark dimension by Dormammu's cosmic Grandet, Rango calmly opened the portal to the dark dimension again, preparing to continue going in to torture Dormammu.

But Dormammu seemed to be completely frightened by him and hid himself. No matter how he provoked him, Dormammu refused to show up, looking like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water.

After the twelfth summon, the energy required to fill up the progress bar again has increased countless times. And he is too lazy to absorb the energies full of filth and evil thoughts, so he can only return from the dark dimension in disappointment.

Since learning Hoggs's Ancient Body and Form of Archaon spells required the help of Vishanti's white magic energy, he followed Strange to the magic dimension again.

When he got there, Rango finally understood why everyone called Vishanti the Trinity.

This guy is just like the eight-faced Buddha in the temple, with three heads of different shapes occupying each side, some are male and some are female, some are human and some are beastly. He looks more like a villain than Dormammu.

And they seemed to have some opinions about Strange, their words were full of dissatisfaction. But unexpectedly, their attitude towards Rango was completely opposite, and they seemed particularly gentle.

After a conversation, I learned that the story of Rango defeating Dormammu in the dark dimension had already spread throughout the universe.

As the old enemy of the dark dimension, Vishanti naturally had a liking for Rango, so he easily obtained the power of white magic from them for free.

"But it's really strange. It's been less than an hour since Dormammu was tortured, but the masters of other dimensions already know about it. There are really no secrets in the universe." Rango shook his head helplessly and smiled bitterly.

Since the news that he had absorbed Dormammu's energy for thousands of years had spread, the Lords of other dimensions avoided him.

He tried to open several dimensional space portals, but apart from Vishanti, who had always cooperated with Kamar-Taj, he failed to meet any other dimensional lord.

I don't know where I can get the energy for this thirteenth summon. I can't really go and kill dozens of God Kings.
But Rango had nothing to complain about. Not to mention the dwarf planet he was going to visit later, the fact that he had already summoned twice in a row and mastered several practical spells was already a considerable gain.

"But it's very strange, Master."

Yuumi suddenly interrupted Rango's thoughts. The little cat tilted its head and asked in confusion, "The spell of the Ancient Body of Hogs can transform the enemy's attack energy into butterflies. Isn't this similar to the Transfiguration Ray? And it seems to be even less powerful than the Transfiguration Ray. After all, it can even turn Dormammu into a mouse."

".Fuck."

Rango's smile froze on his face.

--------

night.

Kamar-Taj is quietly located on a plateau more than 6,000 meters above sea level. The stars are twinkling in the night sky. Occasionally, the laughter of Yuumi and Wanda as they look up at the stars can be heard from the temple. The air is filled with tranquility and peace.

In the pavilion in the courtyard, Tony sat on a stone bench, holding a cup of hot tea in both hands, gazing at the starry night sky. His troubled mood in recent days miraculously calmed down at this moment.

A few days ago, in order to retrieve the lost magic book for Yumi, he came to Kamar-Taj fully armed. He originally planned to return immediately after retrieving the magic book, but he happened to meet Rango, so he stayed for a few more days.

To be honest, Tony really enjoyed these few days.

It was not only because of the beautiful and magnificent scenery of Kamar-Taj and the refreshing green tea, but more importantly, in this pure land far away from the hustle and bustle of the city, he finally had the opportunity to calm down and think seriously about some problems that he had always avoided before.

"It seems like you have figured it out?"

A familiar voice was heard in the darkness, and Rango slowly walked out of the shadows, holding a dozen beers in his hand and a smile on his face.

Tony couldn't help but shook his head and laughed, "This is a temple. Are you sure you want to drink here? Aren't you afraid that the Buddha will blame you?"

"Come on man, I have killed Shiva's wife, the dark goddess Kali, myself. What about Buddha? Where is the Buddha statue in Kamar-Taj?"

As he spoke, Rango threw a can of beer to Tony, opened one for himself, sat next to him, took a big gulp, and asked casually, "Have you contacted Steve? Where are that guy and his boyfriend hiding? Why is there no news at all?"

When Tony heard Captain America's name, his expression became a little stiff.

After taking a sip of beer, he did not answer Rango's question, but asked back: "Do you also think that what I did was wrong, Rango?"

"Well, what should I say?"

Rango gritted his teeth. In fact, he didn't want to get involved in the conflict between Tony and Captain America.

But seeing Tony always looking sad these days, he really couldn't stand it, so he decided to enlighten the boy at night.

"Honestly, Tony, the Winter Soldier is innocent."

He told the truth: "He was brainwashed by Hydra. He had no right to refuse or commit suicide. Hydra could order him to help an old lady cross the street, or they could order him to cut someone into pieces."

"In fact, I think you should understand the reason better than me."

"Of course, man. If you want to kill him, I definitely have no objection. It would be meaningless if people were to live so rationally."

After hearing what he said, Tony took a deep breath and then shook his head. "I'm not a double-standard person, so I'm not contradicting the matter about Bucky. I..."

He hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to pour out his dissatisfaction: "I just think that Stephen is too much! His friends killed my parents, but he has been defending Bucky in front of me, completely disregarding my feelings! He didn't even apologize to me! I handed the Avengers to him and made him the captain and leader, but once it comes to Bucky, he will abandon the rest of us without hesitation. This bastard."

Tony seemed to have opened the floodgates of emotion, venting his long-pent-up anger towards Captain America to Rango.

Rango nodded to show his understanding at first, but gradually he realized that something was wrong.

He turned his head to look at Tony, who was getting more and more excited as he talked, and raised his eyebrows in some surprise.

This guy... From what he said, it seems like he's jealous of the Winter Soldier. He's almost portraying Steve as a scumbag who cheated on him.

"Think about it yourself, Rango. Who was with Steve when he was just thawed? It was me! Who fought alongside him during the Battle of New York? It was also me! When SHIELD was disbanded and the Avengers fell into chaos, who was the first to provide money and resources to support him in becoming the captain of the Avengers? Damn it, it was me!"

"But this bastard was like he was brainwashed when he met Bucky. He didn't care at all that the guy killed my parents. He even kept saying in front of me that Bucky was innocent."

"Fuck! How could I not know that he is innocent? But after all, he killed my parents with his own hands. Shouldn't he give me a sincere apology?"

"But look at his attitude at that time? Fuck, I'll let him die in the future! Rango, you are the best. You are the only one who comes out to accompany me at a time like this."

Tony said, raising his hand and patting Rango's chest, his eyes full of gratitude.

As for Rango, he moved his butt to the side without showing any expression.

If he knew that Tony had been holding back his anger over this matter for so long, he would never take the initiative to enlighten this kid even if he was beaten to death.

"When I return, I will start looking for the remnants of Hydra scattered around the world."

Tony's eyes flashed with a cold light, and he said in a deep voice: "Even if it is to commemorate my parents, I will completely eliminate these bastards from the earth!"

Rango nodded and said seriously: "If you need help, you can come to me. Of course, you have to wait until I come back from Asgard."

"Asgard, why are you going there for no reason?" Tony asked curiously.

"Use stars to build weapons, and by the way, see if we can meet a guy called Thanos." Rango stretched and stood up to go back to the house.

Tony looked at his back and smiled. Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something and asked curiously, "Rango."

"what?"

"If you were me, would you kill the Winter Soldier?"

"Nonsense! I'll even pull out his soul and torture it too!"

"Fuck, isn't that double standard?"

"if not?"

Rango waved his hand without looking back. If he wasn't hypocritical, Emma would have died in his hands.
