He's in the Marvel universe, and his first step is marrying Scarlet Witch.

Chapter 88 The Black Wizard Kidnapping Operation

Li Chuan continued practicing until lunchtime, when he finally stopped casting spells and went back to the restaurant to eat and replenish his energy.

Wizards in this world don't have any mana consumption issues; they can cast spells continuously as long as they want.

The power of magic depends primarily on your understanding of magical principles, your proficiency with magic, and the maximum magical power you can unleash when casting a spell, among other factors.

Just like the same fire spell, when a regular wizard casts it, it's just a string of flames, but when someone like Dumbledore casts it, it's a sea of ​​fire.

In his view, a wizard's bloodline is like a magic converter.

As long as you cast spells, you can absorb energy from the air and convert it into magic power, allowing you to release your magic. The more you cast spells, the more magic power it will continuously convert.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, a wizard can cast spells continuously without running out of magic power; the only fatigue is in the body and mind.

This is different from the chakra of ninjas, who extract the power of their bodies and minds to create chakra and then use it to perform ninjutsu.

If the physical and mental strength is completely drained, one will naturally be unable to perform ninjutsu. Moreover, excessive draining of physical and mental strength may even lead to death.

This is why the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique is listed as a forbidden technique, because creating a large number of shadow clones at once consumes too much chakra. Ninjas with low chakra reserves could easily die from overuse of chakra.

Kakashi was unable to draw large amounts of chakra during battle because he had a Mangekyou Sharingan that wasn't his own, which forced him to constantly draw chakra from it.

Of course, both ninjutsu and magic have their own advantages and disadvantages.

The advantage of ninjutsu is that even in an environment with absolutely no energy, one can still use ninjutsu to fight by drawing upon physical and mental energy.

The advantage of magic is that as long as there is external energy, it can be continuously converted into magical power through the wizard's bloodline, and there is no need to worry about the magical power being exhausted and unable to cast magic.

However, some wizards have a deeper understanding of magic and a better grasp of their wizarding bloodline, allowing them to convert magical energy faster and in greater quantities, resulting in more powerful spells and more intense magical output when their magic waves collide.

Of course, Li Chuan has both, so he doesn't need to worry about the disadvantages. He just needs to study how to better utilize the advantages of both.

After lunch, I continued practicing magic in the afternoon, and in the evening I began memorizing various magic books and studying the profound magical knowledge within them.

And just like that, another month passed.

On November 16, 1926, in the basement of the Foley family manor, Li Chuan chanted a spell over the seemingly half-dead man in a suit, using his magic wand:

"Forget everything, let memories fill the void!"

The Oblivion Curse and the False Memory Curse struck the man in the suit one after the other.

A moment later, Li Chuan asked the man in the suit:

"What's your name? Where do you live? What do you do for work?"

"My name is Li Erzhu, I live in New York, and I'm a professional pig farmer. Who are you? And where is this?"

The man in the suit looked dazed for a while, then suddenly looked at Li Chuan with some fear.

"It works great, it completely erases all memories!"

Seeing that the man in the suit had indeed forgotten his original memories and revealed the false memories he had implanted, Li Chuan nodded in satisfaction and then cast a forgetting spell on him, putting him into an idiotic state.

After a period of hard work and daily practice with these Muggles, he finally mastered most of the magic Tom Foley knew, and even learned some additional magic.

In terms of magical power alone, his current strength in certain spells even surpasses that of Tom Foley himself.

This is only when he uses Tom's wand; if he were to take out the old wand from the mission space, the power of his magic would be even greater.

A wand is like a magic amplifier. You can't necessarily cast spells without it, but you must have a deep understanding of magic and your wizarding bloodline. So, those who can cast spells without a wand are the true masters of the wizarding world.

A wand that is more suitable and appropriate to one's wizarding bloodline will unleash greater magical power.

As for legendary wands like the Elder Wand, they enhance magic even more; the weaker the wizard, the better the effect of using the Elder Wand.

Because they cannot convert magic effectively, they need the Elder Wand to enhance it.

However, when a truly powerful wizard uses the Elder Wand, the enhancement is not so obvious, because he has already developed his wizarding bloodline to its limit, and the enhancement that the Elder Wand can provide becomes dispensable.

Of course, compared to other wands, its blessing is definitely stronger.

So even though Grindelwald always had the Elder Wand, he still lost to Dumbledore in the end.

Perhaps there were some emotional factors and some leniency involved, but it's certain that the Elder Wand's blessing on Grindelwald was definitely not as strong as its blessing on an ordinary wizard.

In any case, when Li Chuan casts the same spell using the Elder Wand and Tom's Wand respectively, the Elder Wand's effect is at least 50% greater than that of Tom's Wand.

If Grindelwald's magical power were increased by fifty percent, he would not possibly lose to Dumbledore.

"I just don't know if Grindelwald still has the Elder Wand."

Li Chuan looked at the old magic wand in his hand, feeling quite curious.

The Elder Wand he possessed was a quest reward he received while completing a mission in the main Marvel universe. If Grindelwald's Elder Wand is still around, it means that the Elder Wand he's holding was a copy created from the game's interface.

If the Elder Wand in Grindelwald's hand has disappeared, then without a doubt, the Elder Wand in his hand is Grindelwald's.

Actually, this issue is important in some ways, but not so important that it doesn't really affect anything.

The first scenario would mean the panel can create things out of thin air, while the second scenario would mean that all his quest rewards were actually obtained by the panel from other worlds.

"Never mind, I'll stop thinking about it now."

He put away the Elder Wand, took out Tom's wand, and chanted the spell again:

"Apparition!"

After a series of crackling sounds like firecrackers, his figure disappeared into the basement.

He had also barely mastered the ability to apparite and teleport.

At night, on the nearly deserted streets of Diagon Alley, Li Chuan appeared, put on his wizard hood, and walked towards the location of Knockout Alley.

What is he doing in Knockturn Alley so late at night? Is he going to trade some kind of forbidden magical item?

surely not.

He planned to take advantage of the darkness and the absence of others to see if he could quickly kidnap a dark wizard and bring him back to the underworld, a place frequented by dark wizards.
