Immediately afterwards, he saw Lin Bei sitting opposite him, the teacup in front of him emitting a faint fragrance.
"Amazing……"
Strange's mouth was dry, and he reached for a teacup, but little did he know that the journey was not over yet. A beam of light shone down on him, lifting him into the sky.
The blue Earth gradually shrinks, and countless galaxies, including the Earth-Moon system, the solar system, the Milky Way, star clusters, and superclusters, form the basic celestial structure that constitutes the vast universe.
Macroscopic single elements and microscopic infinite particles—the myriad things that make up the universe unfold before Strange, captivating and enchanting him like a fleeting glimpse…
Without warning, everything magnified, and the beam of light dragged him back from outside the universe. At the end of the beam was a neutron star with an astonishing density.
His body was compressed to infinite density, passed through the neutron star, and entered a black hole with an even more exaggerated density. Then, the world was plunged into darkness again.
Dark matter universe?
Strange guessed, and after an unknown amount of time, a galaxy appeared in the dark world.
A star, a planet, and a satellite constitute the simplest stellar system.
Strange, bewildered, noticed the gaze looking down from above and stiffly looked up to meet it.
With their vision magnified infinitely, they saw Lin Bei in the boundless void. He held up his hands, and in his palms was the star system he was in.
boom! !
The dark eyes, brimming with boundless magic, shattered Strange's mind. He froze, jolted awake, and jumped up, only to find himself standing directly in front of the tea table in the main hall, having gone nowhere.
"Is this...is this science?"
Strange's hands trembled as he quickly sat down cross-legged, his longing for the mysterious laws of the universe filling him with intense desire.
want to!
He admitted that he was narrow-minded and had a lowly mentality, stemming from the most humble state of mind. He longed to transcend and evolve, and to learn all of this.
"It's science, and it's magic!"
Lin Bei smiled slightly, stretched out his hand in front of Strange, and between his five fingers was a patch of darkness, and the specks of light were the star system that Strange had just seen.
"Gudu!!"
Strange swallowed hard, his excitement palpable: "Sorcerer Supreme, can I learn magic too?"
"can!"
It was no longer a refusal, but a nod of approval.
Upon hearing this, Strange was overwhelmed with excitement, his youthful thirst for knowledge rekindled. He didn't inquire further about healing his hands; he knew that with this advanced knowledge, curing them would be effortless.
"Supreme Sorcerer, may I become your apprentice and learn magic?"
Determined to find the best teacher, Strange shamelessly asked for help. He knew it would be difficult, but he still wanted to give it a try.
What if I see a ghost?
"You can't see ghosts. I can guide you in learning magic, but I won't be your teacher."
Lin Bei picked up his teacup and gently blew on it: "Don't ask why, because we have no master-disciple relationship."
"..."
Strange was greatly disappointed, and just as he was hanging his head in dejection, Lin Bei spoke up again.
“Although we are not related as master and disciple, I know that you have a connection with a guy. I can make the decision for him to take you as his disciple.”
"Who is that master?"
Lin Bei nodded and smiled faintly: "You should call the previous Supreme Mage, the Ancient One."
"Ancient One..."
Upon hearing this, Strange subconsciously glanced at the portrait on the wall. The old man, whom he had previously only thought was somewhat formidable, now seemed unfathomable.
His wise eyes shone brightly, and his white hair, beard, and wrinkles revealed a grand and imposing presence born of history. In his dignified presence, he also exuded a sense of peaceful tranquility.
Strange was increasingly impressed by the sight of the man. After a while, he wondered if his eyes were playing tricks on him, but the venerable, so-called wise man, who exuded the aura of a mage, actually opened a jar on the table, took out a cockroach, and began to chew on it.
"Don't be silly, that old man isn't the Ancient One. That old guy is an emeritus professor at Kamar-Taj, and the headmaster of a magic school in another wizarding world." Lin Bei slightly curled his lip, interrupting Strange's pilgrimage.
"?"
Strange was completely bewildered. If he wasn't the Sorcerer Supreme, why was he hanging on the wall?
Is this a custom of Kamar-Taj?
"Look closely, this is the Sorcerer Supreme."
Lin Bei reached behind him and pulled out a tablet.
In the video, the bald woman and Lin Bei stand side by side, and she even makes a peace sign.
Strange's intuition told him that something was wrong!
It's not that the bald woman doesn't resemble the Sorcerer Supreme; she gave Strange a very powerful feeling, but compared to the white-bearded old man on the wall, she seemed quite ordinary.
The art style is different.
Chapter 253
"The realm of magic is vast; even I have only just begun, and you..."
Lin Bei glanced at Strange: "A beginner among beginners. For the foreseeable future, you don't need to do anything but keep reading to enrich your knowledge."
"As I said before, we mages communicate with the world through our thoughts. In addition to magic, you also need knowledge. Otherwise, you won't even understand basic incantations, let alone cast spells."
"Once you've passed the beginner stage, accumulated a certain amount of knowledge, and can understand incantations, then you can..."
"So you can cast spells now, right?"
Strange was eager to try. As a top student with a doctorate, he was not afraid of studying.
I think you're dreaming!
Lin Bei rolled his eyes at Strange: "Stop daydreaming. After you finish learning the theory, you'll have your exam."
"take an exam!?"
Strange's eyes widened. Is magic really this down-to-earth?
"The 'sea of questions' strategy relies on quantity to achieve success; it's a gradual process of accumulating experience, and that's how I got there back then..."
Lin Bei, without batting an eye, spouted nonsense: "After all, magic is complex and profound, involving dimensional forces that are so chaotic they can drive people crazy. Without sufficient prior preparation, recklessly casting spells will only harm yourself and others."
"You need to think and summarize more in the sea of questions in order to effectively consolidate knowledge points, broaden your thinking and open your eyes, and master every spell through practice."
"Gudu!"
Strange swallowed hard, sensing that the future held a period of unbearable suffering.
"Focus on your studies. I'll have Wang compile a list of practice questions for you."
Lin Bei stroked his chin: "You are the Ancient One's disciple, so your training volume must not be inferior to others, otherwise the Ancient One will lose face. Let me think..."
"Well, take it one step at a time. Don't take too big a step. For the first time, take five sacks of exercises!"
"..."
The King is in charge of Strange's magical path. There's no need to teach him any grand principles. Just take Strange to the Library and choose a suitable spellbook for him to learn.
It contains basic theoretical knowledge of magic, including analysis of magical theories, a complete guide to spells and runes, classic quotes, and rules and taboos for the use of magic. It covers advanced magic, but there isn't even a single book on spellcasting.
Strange didn't find it boring; the door to a new world was slowly opening, and even if it was tedious, he enjoyed it immensely.
It must be admitted that this guy was born for magic. He can understand theoretical knowledge at a glance and master rune language in no time. Even if there is no original book with no translation, he can memorize it in the fastest time with the help of JTS-3.
Strange's learning speed is astonishing, and as he reads, magic spontaneously accumulates within him; the more he reads, the stronger his magic becomes.
Although this process was very slow and not yet enough for him to unleash advanced magic, he had already mastered the use of some spells with ease.
It's unclear how he persuaded the king, but the king secretly taught him the magic of [Astral Projection], which made his learning even faster.
He projected his soul, separating his mind from his body. In this state, he did not need to eat, breathe, or sleep, and was able to devote himself 200% to the acquisition of knowledge.
“That’s dangerous. I don’t want Wang to open the door and see a cold corpse, while your soul remains oblivious, buried in your studies by the bedside.”
Looking at Strange, whose mental state had been completely transformed, Lin Bei shook his head slightly and said, "Your thirst for knowledge is good, but going too far is like becoming obsessed. You've already shown some early signs of this."
Lin Bei told Strange to stop studying and take a break, which made him very unhappy. In his words, he felt uncomfortable if he didn't read for more than ten minutes.
"Master of Pride, is there any magic that can improve physical constitution?"
Strange's eyes lit up, and he rubbed his hands together, saying, "Ideally, it should be permanent. I hope I can stay in the 'Astral Projection' state for a longer period of time."
"Do you feel like you've had enough of life?"
Lin Bei shook his head slightly. There was no magic that could permanently improve physical fitness, but there was a prescription.
In addition, he has a series of improved and mature products such as the Super Soldier Serum and the Heart-Shaped Herb, but Strange can't use any of them. His physique is not good enough; at the very least, one needs to be at the level of a professional athlete.
To put it bluntly, Strange simply lacks exercise!
“Sorcerer Supreme, I’ve set an alarm to wake me from my ‘Astral Projection’ state.”
Strange explained, "He's my robotic assistant, and he's been a great help to me."
Very good, Wang is going to be laid off!
Lin Bei rolled his eyes: "Don't be silly, the robot can't interfere with your soul. In that state, you can't hear the alarm clock at all."
Even so, there is still the king, who will wake me up.
"Stop talking. Learning should be done in moderation. For the next ten days, I will confine you to your quarters and forbid you from touching any magic books."
Lin Bei didn't give Strange a chance to explain: "How's the homework going?"
“1····”
"A whole sack?"
"One copy."
"Why is it only this little?"
Lin Bei frowned and said with displeasure, "Strange, your attitude towards learning is very problematic. You should know..."
"Supreme Master, please let me explain."
