All Gods: I Became a God by Loading Templates

Master Dolby looked somewhat dejected. "Indeed, the difference between geniuses and us ordinary people is like that between a human and a dog."

"But the casting speed of your Seraphim Shield is a bit too fast!"

Lin Bei shrugged and said dismissively, "Perhaps I have a higher aptitude for defensive spells~"

Lin Bei certainly wouldn't say that he used his own energy to construct this spell, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to construct it so quickly.

The casting of spells in this world still requires mobilizing cosmic energy and obtaining it from dimensional demons.

If you can mobilize cosmic energy, you can cast some minor spells, such as magic whips and teleportation portals, as well as the Raghadore series of spells, which is a secret technique that conjures two red magic circles in your hands.

Whether or not a spell can be cast quickly depends on the strength of the caster's mental power.

However, the speed at which these secret techniques are executed is not much different.

The powerful defensive arcane spell, Seraphim's Shield, is different; it has two methods of casting.

One method involves mobilizing cosmic energy, but this is extremely slow, taking about ten minutes, and its defensive strength is not high. At most, it can withstand the strafing of a Gatling gun. It is mainly used for positional defense and is performed in coordination with others.

Another option is to borrow directly from a dimensional daemon named Seraphin, who can be widely learned by mages in Kamar-Taj. This dimensional daemon is at least neutral in its alignment.

When casting Seraph's Shield, the speed is still very fast, the casting time is directly reduced to one minute, and powerful mages can shorten it to more than ten seconds.

Just like lending money, there's a time required for review and for the funds to be deposited into the account. This mainly depends on the mage's creditworthiness; a high credit score will naturally result in faster processing.

Looking at the Seraphim Shield in front of him, the mage said, "If you fight me while wearing this thing, then I have no choice but to admit defeat."

After all, this is a teaching session.

And you won't make any progress either.

Lin Bei thought about it for a moment and agreed, "Okay then~"

It's an offensive spell, so its power might be quite high.

"Bring it on! Don't underestimate me, the instructor of the mage combat course!" Mage Dolby said confidently.

"Then here I come." After Lin Bei finished speaking, he pushed with one hand, and at the same time as dispelling the Seraphim Shield, the energy that shattered into pieces shot out.

Mage Dolby quickly raised his arms to block in front of him, and the massive red ring of Raghadore formed a defensive magic circle.

Suddenly, a deep red ribbon, resembling a tentacle, broke through the magic shield in front of Mage Dolby and directly wrapped around and bound his body.

The immense force was like a giant python constricting its prey.

However, under Lin Bei's control, Mage Dubi only fell to the ground without even breaking his scalp.

"Alright, alright, I give up!"

As the red tentacle-like bands disappeared.

The mage Dolby got up from the ground. "Sigh~ It seems I can't teach you anything. I didn't expect you to even know the spell 'Crimson Chains of Cytorak,' and the timing of your choice was also perfect."

This is a complete and utter domination; I have nothing more to teach you.

Perhaps only His Holiness the Supreme Master can help you progress.

As someone recruited by the Sorcerer Supreme, you'd better go find her.

After saying this, Mage Dolby put the weapon back on the shelf and said solemnly, "Mage Lin, on behalf of Kamar-Taj, I hereby declare that you have become a qualified mage."

"This is your suspension ring!" Mage Dubi solemnly took out a brand-new suspension ring from his pocket and placed it in Lin Bei's hand.

Lin Bei clasped his hands together and said, "Thank you for your guidance."

Master Dolby smiled brightly and said, "No, I can't teach you anything."

What was originally a practical training course has been turned into a practical assessment by you.

A mage who has obtained the Sling Ring can now graduate from Kamar-Taj.

You could say this pendant ring is your graduation certificate.

Go find the Sorcerer Supreme!

She will arrange a position for you.

With your strength, you're capable of overseeing all three holy sites.

After saying that, Master Dubi hesitated for a moment, "Perhaps you could ask the Sorcerer Supreme to let you take on the position of librarian."

Lin Bei couldn't help but ask curiously, "Is there any special significance to this position?"

Master Dolby leaned close to Lin Bei and whispered mysteriously, "This is just a rumor. It is said that becoming a librarian greatly increases the chance of becoming a Supreme Mage."

At the very least, they are qualified to be candidates.

Moreover, for a mage, knowledge is of paramount importance.

Lin Bei raised an eyebrow and said, "You think so highly of me?"

Master Dolby shook his head and said, "It's not just me, but all the other sorcerers in Kamar-Taj believe you are capable of succeeding the Sorcerer Supreme."

After all, your talent seems like a twist of fate, destined you to become the Sorcerer Supreme.

Lin Bei asked in confusion, "Doesn't becoming a Supreme Mage require defeating all the mages in the Mage Conference?"

Master Dolby nodded. "It seems you also have the idea of ​​becoming the Sorcerer Supreme."

That's right, besides that, it was designated by the current Sorcerer Supreme.

However, this designation will cause some mages to disagree.

After all, our mission is to protect this planet from being coveted by demons from other dimensions.

Having strong capabilities is a crucial element.

Only with overwhelming power can you gain the recognition of all mages.

That's why I made you a librarian.

Lin Bei thanked him again, saying, "Thank you for your explanation, Venerable Dolby. I'll go and talk to the Supreme Mage now."

I said goodbye to Master Dolby.

They arrived at the main hall where the Ancient One was.

Gu Yi was already waiting; fragrant tea had been poured for her on the tea table in front of her.

Upon seeing this, Lin Bei sat down directly in front of the arriving Ancient One.

I already know why you came.

Master Hamil will step down as librarian and go to the New York Sanctuary to serve as its guardian.

After taking a sip of tea, Lin Bei said bluntly, "You're spying on the timeline again."

Did I eventually become the Sorcerer Supreme?

Gu Yi smiled and said, "Looking at the results, it's still good."

I think I should retire soon~

I hope you won't keep me waiting too long.

After saying that, Gu Yi didn't refill Lin Bei's tea. "Master Hamil is already waiting for you."

Lin Bei stood up, hesitated for a moment, then stopped and asked, "Can you really see all of the future?"

Gu Yi: "Those are all limited possibilities, not the future."

As the old saying goes, major events cannot be reversed, but minor events can be changed.

Some key points cannot be changed, otherwise unpredictable disasters will occur.

"When you become the Sorcerer Supreme and possess the Eye of Agamotto, you will know."

Lin Bei nodded, understanding the meaning behind Gu Yi's words.

The Eye of Agamotto was originally a magical amulet with omniscience, capable of breaking black magic, resisting curses, concealing itself, seeing through many illusions, and even observing the past and future. It was a powerful prophetic magical item.

After being used as the container to seal the Time Stone, it became an iconic item of the Sorcerer Supreme.

The Time Stone greatly enhanced the power of the Eye of Agamotto, allowing it to manipulate time, making it go backward or forward.

It enhances the original predictive ability, allowing the wearer to directly observe the timeline, whether it is within this universe or the multiverse.

The ability to observe timelines is still flawed; it can only observe the future while one is still alive, but not the future after death.

However, it is still possible to make predictions.

But those who know about prophecy understand it.

"So, your death was inevitable?" Lin Bei asked immediately.

“It seems you know quite a bit. But now I have a better option,” the Ancient One said meaningfully. “Strange must become the Sorcerer Supreme, and I must leave this world.”

However, your appearance has shown me a different possibility.

Have you thought it through?

Knowing the truth, would you still want to be the Sorcerer Supreme?

Lin Bei tapped his temple with his finger, "It seems that if I want to become the Supreme Mage, I'll have to inherit your future."

Gu Yi also stood up and said, "Everything has already been secretly marked with a price by fate. You have to pay for what you want to gain."

However, if you were to succeed me as the Sorcerer Supreme, I wouldn't have to die; I could retire early.

Perhaps, like the others, I could become an eternal follower.

"Okay, I'll think about it." Lin Bei said and turned to leave.

When they arrived at the library in Kamar-Taj.

Master Hamil maintained his stern expression, appearing very serious, yet this serious demeanor inspired a sense of trust.

Without wasting any time, the mage Hamil gave a brief introduction to the various defensive magic arrays in the library.

"As a librarian, you can look at any of the books here."

If a mage comes to borrow a book, you must first assess their strength. Never lend them a book that is too dangerous for them.

At the same time, it is also necessary to register the time and duration of book borrowing and promptly retrieve overdue books.

Also, magic must not be used in the library to ensure the safety of the books, and beware of those who want to steal them.

Maintaining order in the library. That's about all the responsibilities I have.
