Chapter 280 A Visit to Kamar-Taj
Chapter 280 A Visit to Kamar-Taj
Hearing Karl's words, Daisy covered her forehead which was still aching, and said half-believingly:
"I agreed? Why don't I remember this?"
Karl kindly reminded: “That’s not important anymore. Didn’t you say that there was a big commotion in the bureau? Why don’t you go back and check the situation?”
Daisy suddenly realized: "Yes, I have to go back." She endured the pain all over her body and got up from the bed.
I searched around but couldn't find my clothes.
"Where are my clothes?"
Instead, there were some scattered pieces of skirt cloth on the bedroom floor.
Daisy was stunned when she saw the terrible state of her skirt.
Fortunately, Qin was prepared. She took out a lace dress and underwear that she had just bought yesterday from the closet and handed them to Daisy.
"Wear this. I bought it yesterday, but I don't know if the size is right."
Daisy was in a hurry to get back to headquarters and had no time to worry about whether the size was right.
"Thank you."
She thanked him, took the clothes, covered her chest and hurried into the bathroom.
In less than two minutes, Daisy came out of the bathroom wearing a new dress.
She didn’t even bother to look at Karl on the bed. She took out her cell phone to contact her superiors while rushing out of the bedroom.
After watching Daisy leave, Carl got up, washed, and went to the secondary bedroom of the presidential suite.
"Boom!"
Knocked on the door twice.
Soon the door opened, and Wanda walked out of the bedroom with dark circles under her eyes and a resentful look.
"The soundproofing in the presidential suite is so poor that I couldn't sleep well all night."
"I'm sorry to disturb your rest, but in your current condition, do you still have the energy to learn magic?" Carl asked with some concern.
"Don't worry, let's go to Kamar-Taj now." Wanda said, not wanting to say any more nonsense, and walked straight out of the presidential suite.
Considering that she might have to travel far today, Wanda wore a dark red lingerie and a long trench coat, with slim jeans and black high boots.
This outfit is both fashionable and practical, allowing you to act flexibly even in emergencies.
Carl followed Wanda's footsteps and asked curiously, "By the way, do you know the way? Why did you go ahead by yourself?"
"Of course I know. I've learned about Stark's time and space hijacking plan." Wanda's tone revealed a hint of impatience.
Seeing this, Karl didn't continue talking nonsense.
The two took the hotel elevator and prepared to take a car to the New York Temple to visit the Supreme Sorcerer, Slantchi, who had just resumed his office a few days ago.
The elevator descended slowly. There were two or three unfamiliar hotel guests in the spacious elevator.
So, the two of them stood half a meter apart, silent at the same time.
Wanda is now very wary of Carl, especially after retrieving Vision's body, she has been more careful to keep a distance from Carl.
Carl was too lazy to speak to ease the relationship between the two. He just wanted to find Wanda, whom he was familiar with.
Wanda, who is in love, should just hold Vision's urn and slowly remember him.
The two of them deliberately ignored each other, just like a couple having a quarrel.
But neither of them noticed this at the moment.
"Ding--"
The elevator door opened, and the two came to the front desk in the lobby on the first floor of the Walton Hotel.
The receptionist is a blonde girl with big boobs who always has a professional smile on her face.
"Dear guests, what can I do for you?"
This busty girl was about to break the collar buttons of her professional suit, and Carl couldn't help but take a few more glances at her.
“We need a car”
Wanda asked the front desk to notify the hotel to send a car to take them away.
Then the two turned and left the front desk.
Seeing that Carl was still reluctant to leave, Wanda felt a little angry for some reason and couldn't help but retort.
"Why, you like that receptionist? Then you can trick her into bed tonight, just like you did with the woman you brought home last night."
"But you have to get another hotel room. I'm tired of your noise!"
There was obvious resentment in Wanda's tone.
Carl, who was familiar with Wanda's personality, could only smile awkwardly and change the subject:
"In fact, we don't need to take the bus. Public transportation in New York is very crowded at this time. I guess we will waste a lot of time in traffic jams on the way."
Wanda felt a headache when she heard about the traffic jam. She didn't want to waste time stuck in traffic.
"Then how do we go?"
Karl said proudly: "Although the New York Temple is protected by a mirror space formation, I can teleport you directly to the entrance of the New York Temple."
"Then why didn't you say it earlier? Were you fascinated by the girl at the front desk just now?" Wanda asked unhappily.
Carl wanted to explain, but Wanda kept waving her hands to signal him to stop talking nonsense.
"Okay, don't resist, I'll teleport you there."
A spatial fluctuation enveloped the two of them.
Carl and Wanda disappeared at the hotel entrance, crossed almost half of Manhattan, and arrived at Bleecker Street in Greenwich Village in downtown Manhattan.
"No. 177A, this should be it."
The New York Temple is a three-story Victorian brownstone townhouse with French Baroque architectural design and duplex roof, presenting a classical and mysterious architectural style.
This formed a sharp contrast with the surrounding modern buildings, so Carl and his companions easily found the address of the New York Temple.
"Since we are visiting rashly, should we bring some souvenirs?"
When they arrived at the temple entrance, Wanda looked a little nervous.
"No need, mages don't care about these things."
Carl's confidence infected Wanda and made her calmer.
"You're going to knock on the door?"
The main entrance of the temple is a double-opening one, made of heavy material, and decorated with exquisite metal patterns and mysterious rune patterns on the surface.
Just as Karl was about to reach out and knock on the door, the solemn main door of the temple opened automatically.
A fat man with thick eyebrows, big eyes and wearing a yellow monk's robe appeared in front of the two.
He is none other than the Mage King, who was once the librarian of Kamar-Taj.
He also succeeded the position of Supreme Sorcerer five years after Slantchi disappeared due to Shuomie.
Until a few days ago, the final battle was won and Slantchi returned.
The Mage King finally took off the burden of the Supreme Mage.
At this time, Wang Gang opened the door and prepared to go out for breakfast, looking at Karl and Wanda with a confused look on his face.
"Wanda? And this person should be a visitor from a parallel universe. Why are you here in Kamar-Taj?"
Wanda hesitated and said, "Well, we visited Kamar-Taj mainly to borrow from Slantchi."
"What do you want to borrow? Just say it directly. We are all companions who have saved half the universe together. Don't be so polite." Wang said with a charitable look. "I am Carl Davis, an ordinary multiverse traveler."
Carl briefly introduced himself, then took over Wanda's words and said, "Can you take us to see Slantchi? We have something to discuss with him."
"Of course, come with me." Wang made way and motioned for them to follow him in.
Carl and Wanda followed into the New York Temple.
The decoration of the temple hall is full of Victorian style, and the marble floor is smooth as if it had just been waxed.
The two followed the king and continued along a corridor into the temple.
The walls on both sides of the corridor are decorated with dark wood paneling and some gilded moldings.
Carl also saw several portraits of famous magic masters of Kamar-Taj hanging on the wall.
The three of them walked into the teleportation hall of the temple, where there was a teleportation array that was open all year round to the other two temples and Kamar-Taj.
The towering dome is painted with astrological maps and mysterious magic arrays.
The crystal chandelier hanging from the dome is lit by magical energy. The gentle light inside the crystal chandelier flickers, as dreamy as stars.
And four portals with golden edges were located in the center of the teleportation hall.
Carl could even see the scene on the other side directly through the portal.
Even though this was not the first time Wanda had seen this kind of wizard's portal.
But she was still curious about this magical space teleportation magic.
As Wang walked towards the portal on the left, he introduced: "The first portal on the right leads to the Hong Kong Temple, and the second portal leads to the London Temple."
"And the portal we are taking now leads to Kamar-Taj."
As Wanda stepped through the portal, she curiously asked, "Is this kind of teleportation magic difficult to learn?"
By this time, they had traveled halfway around the world and arrived at Kamar-Taj in Kathmandu, Nepal.
Wang continued to lead Carl and the other man out of the teleportation hall and walked towards Slantchi's residence, while explaining:
"No matter what kind of spell it is, it requires talent. People without magical talent may never learn the spell of teleportation in their entire lives."
"And those with extraordinary talents, like Slantchi, only took him one hour to learn the teleportation spell. He is the person with the highest magical talent I have ever seen."
Wanda followed and asked, "So do you think I have a talent for magic?"
Carl smiled and comforted him, "Don't worry, your magic talent is terrifyingly high. You should be able to learn a low-level spell like the portal in just a few minutes."
"You're right, Wanda's magical talent is higher than mine."
At this time, the three of them walked into the open-air training ground in the courtyard of Kamar-Taj.
More than twenty mages in monk robes are conducting close combat training.
Carl and the other two looked at the person who had just spoken.
It was the person they were looking for, the Supreme Sorcerer, Slantchi.
Slantech, who was wearing a red and blue wizard robe and a levitation cloak, was originally instructing these mages in close combat training, and was waiting for the king to buy breakfast.
But when he saw that Wang came back empty-handed and only brought two people, he knew that there was no breakfast.
"Wanda, and this one"
Wang introduced: "This is Carl Davis, a visitor from the parallel universe. As for Wanda, I believe you already know her."
At the same time, Wang walked to Slantchi and said in a low voice, "My guess is correct. This person really came from a parallel universe."
Upon hearing this, Slantech frowned. From what he knew about the multiverse.
A strange visitor from a parallel universe is a very dangerous thing for this universe.
Because that might cause a cosmic collision event!
Therefore, Slantchi asked cautiously: "Mr. Carl, are you really from another parallel universe?"
Karl nodded nonchalantly and said, “Yes, any problem?”
"Of course. No problem!" Slantech originally wanted to say there was a problem, but thinking of the strength Carl showed in the final battle, he changed his words after all.
"You two came to Kamar-Taj specifically, so you're not here for tourism, right?"
Carl cast an inquiring look at Wanda standing beside him and asked, "Do you want to speak for yourself or should I speak for you?"
When it came time to ask to borrow the Dark Book, Wanda hesitated for a long time.
The main reason was that she was not very familiar with Slantchi, and she would feel a little embarrassed to ask to borrow the Dark Book.
But Carl waited for a few seconds and became impatient.
He spoke directly and stated his purpose.
"I heard that Kamar-Taj has the original copy of the Dark Book. We would like to borrow it to have a look."
"No! Absolutely not!"
Before Slantech could even open his mouth, Wang reacted strongly and refused.
"The Dark God's Book contains all the dark magic, and those who practice dark magic will be targeted by the ancient demon god Xithorn without exception."
"Being targeted by Sithorn is likely to cause unforeseen serious consequences."
Wang said everything he wanted to say, and Slantech agreed with him. At the same time, he looked at Carl and Wanda in confusion.
"Why do you want to borrow this banned book?"
Seeing that Wang and Slantchi were obviously unwilling to lend out the Dark Book, Wanda didn't know what to do.
Carl said calmly, "Slantchi, you should know that Wanda's ability actually comes from the ancient demon god Sithon."
"Therefore, the side effect of the Dark Book that may tempt people to fall into depravity does not exist at all for her."
The king, with a serious face, shook his head and said, "We can't gamble. If Wanda is seduced into corruption by dark magic, everything will be over."
Wanda quickly assured him, "Don't worry, I will never fall into depravity. I just want to learn a special spell from the Dark Book."
The king refused again with a stern face: "Even if the possibility of you falling into depravity is very low, we can't take the gamble."
Slantchi continued with a straight face, "Because if we lose the bet, it could affect the safety of the entire universe."
Wanda was also shocked when she heard such serious consequences and turned to look at Carl.
"Then how about we just forget it?"
"Forget it? That won't do!" Carl shook his head gently, "Since we can't come to an agreement through proper discussion, it seems I have to take it myself."
Hearing that the other party wanted to attack, Wang nervously pulled his hands together, summoned a magic energy whip, and stared at Carl vigilantly.
And Slantech thought about it, then reached out to calm the two parties who were on the verge of a confrontation.
"Wait, it's not impossible for you to borrow the Dark God Book, but there are two conditions. If you agree, then I will agree to let you borrow it."
Wanda asked puzzledly, "Which two conditions?"
Karl looked gloomy, wanting to hear his conditions.
To be honest, if it wasn't difficult to determine where Slantchi had hidden the Dark Book, he would have taken action long ago.
Why waste so much time?
At this time, seeing that both of them were staring at him, Slantech said seriously:
"My conditions are very simple. First, you must explain the specific reason why you want to borrow the Dark God Book."
"Secondly, when you borrow the Dark Book, you must do so within my field of vision, otherwise I will not feel at ease."
