Marvel: Starting with the Glint-Glint Fruit.

The theory of bloodline is a very psychedelic thing.

For example, the mysterious D-family. Of course, regardless of the circumstances, Haki is the manifestation of will. Matthew believes that others have a chance of awakening Armament Haki and Observation Haki.

Once awakened, the upper limit of one's strength will be greatly increased.

Willpower and belief are very idealistic things.

The stronger the belief, the stronger the strength – this is a standard premise.

The chances of successfully creating a Marvel Universe version of the Navy are not low.

The Super Soldier Gene Serum is nearing completion, and subsequent advanced training, up to the Six Styles, and the awakening of the dual-color Haki are all ready.

The seeds have been planted, and the flowers are about to bloom.

This made Matthew very excited.

However, the hunt for demons should also be put on the agenda, so Matthew immediately set off for New York.

New York is undoubtedly the world's largest and most watched city.

This city can also represent the so-called American Dream.

But beneath this dream lies a chilling darkness.

Matthew ignored the darkness, for he had come to 177A Blick Street in Greenwich Village, New York, that day.

Matthew wore a short black wool coat over a black turtleneck top, paired with dark straight-leg trousers and brown Chelsea boots.

All-dark, minimalist design with no unnecessary embellishments; slim fit without being bulky; tall and slender; exudes an aura of unapproachability; handsome yet understated.

He stood in front of the door and saw the building in front of him.

Blick Street is narrow, lined with old brownstone buildings, and has few pedestrians.

The building stands facing the street with a dark brown exterior.

Stone steps lead to the entrance, a dark solid wood door, a bronze door number plaque, and black iron bars on the windows.

The entire building was quiet and deserted, with no superfluous decorations.

It looked like an ordinary house, not particularly eye-catching, but he could vaguely sense an inexplicable power enveloping it.

It seems to possess the power to influence the subconscious.

Matthew's eyes flashed, and he stepped onto the light gray stone steps in front of the door. He reached out and grasped the door knocker, but before he could exert any force, the door opened automatically with a creak.

Matthew lowered his hand, and in front of him stood a slightly overweight Asian man dressed in ordinary coarse cloth clothes and a coat.

"Welcome to the New York Sanctuary, Mr. Matthew. My name is Wang."

"Hello, Wang."

Matthew recognized the Asian fat mage in front of him, who, despite his stern face, had a certain comical charm.

Benedict Wong, later the librarian of Kamar-Taj who housed a vast collection of mysterious books.

In the future, he fights alongside Doctor Strange against Kaecilius and Dormammu, who have turned to darkness. After Thanos' snap, Doctor Strange disappears, and Wong takes over as the Sorcerer Supreme.

He is a wise and experienced monk.

He is humble and quiet, and never makes mistakes. Of course, once you get to know him, he will inadvertently reveal his sense of humor.

"Please come in, Your Excellency has been waiting for a long time." The king stepped aside.

Matthew raised an eyebrow. The moment he stepped inside, he had just gotten a clear look at the interior structure of the New York Sanctuary when the scene shifted, and he found himself in a grand hall filled with classical style.

The spacious hall is made of wood, with walls and floors.

It has a classical historical and artistic beauty.

There was no one else in the hall except for the Ancient One standing before them.

The Ancient One, dressed in a white robe, stood with her hands behind her back, looking at Matthew with a smile.

"The Ancient One."

"Welcome to Kamar-Taj, Matthew," the Ancient One said softly, her voice still calm, as she explained what had just happened: "Each sanctuary has a fixed magical teleportation circle, and only the Sorcerer Supreme has the authority to use it."

"I've set your information, so the moment you step into the New York Sanctuary, a teleportation spell will be triggered, and you'll be transported here."

"Very useful magic."

Matthew was truly impressed.

A burning desire welled up inside me; these were wonderful things, all wonderful things.

You must learn it.

"Magic is like technology in the human world; it can not only drive away enemies but also make daily life easier, so there is no inherent conflict between them."

The Ancient One was very satisfied with Matthew's performance.

If she's interested, that means her return on investment will be huge.

"Come on, let me show you around Kamar-Taj."

After saying that, Gu Yi led Matthew away from the main hall.

Matthew followed the Ancient One out of the main hall, and as soon as they stepped outside, they were greeted by a rustic landscape.

The stone buildings are built against the mountain, with gray-black stone walls arranged in a staggered pattern.

Against the backdrop of distant, snow-capped peaks, it is simple yet majestic.

In the distance, in an open area, several young mages dressed in coarse robes were training.

However, instead of training in magic, they were practicing traditional martial arts routines and combat, which felt very incongruous to the senses.

Monks carrying books hurried by.

The atmosphere here is very quiet.

The Ancient One noticed the direction Matthew was looking, and explained softly, "We are not the same as you; we don't directly possess energy within our bodies."

"We learn knowledge, we learn magic, we communicate with magical dimensions, and we draw energy, but every time we draw energy, we are attacked. With a strong enough body and as little magic as possible, learning martial arts and combat is the best choice."

The Ancient One was unaware that Matthew was very knowledgeable about these things, so she carefully explained the underlying logic of magic.

Although Matthew already knew, he still listened attentively.

Humility is the most precious quality of an apprentice.

He will not become arrogant or conceited because of his current achievements.

In the pursuit of power, knowledge is also power, but these negative qualities are the most deadly poison.

"Am I different from you?"

Matthew immediately focused on the key point.

"Yes, you're different." Gu Yi looked at Matthew, her gaze seemingly able to see through the secrets of his body: "You're special, more special than anyone else."

"The energy of light and your flesh exist in two states, yet they can transform into each other. The body and soul construct a special rule under which you are the element."

"In addition, you also have your own power, the manifestation of the power of will and belief."

"Under such special circumstances, you can walk a different path from us and use magic without being restrained."

Gu Yi saw things very clearly.

Under these conditions, Matthew naturally possesses an advantage that neither she nor any other mage has.

To learn magic without being limited by the Vishanti magical dimension.

Not to mention, this little guy is exceptionally strong.

A strong body is also an advantage in learning and using magic in combat.

She could already imagine how wild Matthew's fighting style would be in the future.

Considering Mephisto's being targeted by Matthew, when Matthew fully develops and meets Mephisto again, Mephisto will probably be dumbfounded.
