As he spoke, Mu En walked towards the portal, and the little bat followed Mu En through the portal.
"Mu En!"
Kurim shouted and wanted to go together, but the portal was closed immediately.
"Izzy, quickly confirm Muen's coordinates!"
"Alarm, the master's signal source has disappeared, the alarm signal source has disappeared!"
Chapter 144: The person who took away Uncle Ben’s soul!!!
After passing through the portal, Mu En came to an ancient hall. When he was in the laboratory before, it was still night outside, but when he arrived here, the sky outside the window had turned into daytime.
Mu En looked around with interest. He had only seen Kamar-Taj in movies before. This was his first time seeing this temple belonging to the wizards in the Marvel Universe with his own eyes.
As a scientist, Mu En should be a staunch materialist, but as a time traveler, the very idea of his own rebirth is already very unscientific, so Mu En did not have such a big reaction to magic like other scientists.
"Is this Kamar-Taj?"
Gu Yi narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Mu En with a smile.
"You seem to know a lot of things. Please take a seat."
As he said this, Gu Yi made a gesture of invitation.
"Just a few hundred million, maybe."
Mu En sat down beside the coffee table with confidence. The little bat flapped its wings and landed on Mu En's shoulder, staring at Gu Yi with a pair of orange eyes.
Ancient One still had a smile on his face.
"Really? Then tell me what do you know about me?"
Mu En looked at Master Ancient One with a damn look on his face and spoke calmly.
"Master Ancient One, Sorcerer Supreme, leader of the magicians of Kamar-Taj, guardian of the Time Stone."
"Any more?"
Gu Yi looked at Mu En and asked.
Looking at Gu Yi's strange eyes, Mu En spoke again.
"What else do you want me to say? Dark magic? The Dark Book? Or Dormammu, the demon god of the dark universe?"
Gu Yi was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
"It seems that you really know a lot."
Mu En went straight to the point.
"Master Ancient One, I don't like beating around the bush. If I have something to ask, I'll just ask directly. Do you know who took Uncle Ben's soul away?"
Gu Yi looked at Mu En and did not answer directly. Instead, he waved his hand, and a set of tea set appeared on the coffee table. Gu Yi calmly began to make tea.
"You know what? Some things are already destined, and these destined things cannot be changed."
Mu En frowned. Is this guy hinting at something?
"I'm sorry, Master Mage. I'm a scientist. I don't believe in fatalism. I think everything can be changed."
"Really? Then what do you think magic is?"
Gu Yi made tea and poured a cup for Mu En.
"I think magic, like science, is a way to control energy. Magic is just another way to control and use energy."
Mu En picked up the teacup and carefully looked at the tea leaves swirling in the tea.
Gu Yi looked at Mu En and nodded with satisfaction.
"Great explanation. I think you have the potential to become a mage."
Mu En shook his head.
"Come on, Master Ancient One, do you think I don't know? To become a mage of your lineage, one needs to experience grief and despair. Only after completely losing hope in this world can one step into the threshold of becoming a mage. I have experienced despair, but despair cannot overwhelm me."
Mu En looked at Gu Yi firmly.
"When despair comes, I will be the last hope."
Gu Yi's eyes became more and more satisfied as he looked at Mu En.
"That's great, that's a good realization. I think you can become an excellent wizard. It's a pity that I have already chosen a successor, and that successor is destined to take over my position. Otherwise, I think you would be a good successor."
Mu En ignored Gu Yi's words. He knew who the successor Gu Yi was talking about, and that person should be Doctor Strange. Mu En still remembered that he had helped him perform the operation.
He picked up the teacup and took a sip of the tea carefully. A refreshing tea fragrance spread from the tip of his tongue, followed by the bitterness of the tea. After the bitterness, a faint sweetness slowly emerged.
"Good tea, but not enough Master Mage. You haven't answered my question yet. Who took Uncle Ben's soul? Was it Mephisto?"
Under Mu En's gaze, Gu Yi poured another cup of tea for Mu En.
"Good taste. I haven't met anyone who appreciates this tea yet."
As he said this, he poured himself a cup of tea.
"Do you remember what I said? Some things are already destined. Where do you think the soul of a person who is destined to leave will go?"
Mu En fell silent after hearing his words.
Where does the soul go after death? Hell? No!
As far as Ju Muen knows, the souls of ordinary people do not go to hell after death. Only those who are tempted by the devil will go to hell after death.
Suddenly, an extremely powerful existence appeared in Mu En’s mind.
"Goddess of Death!"
Gu Yi looked at Mu En with a smile.
"It seems like you know a lot."
After getting Gu Yi's affirmation, Mu En's face became uglier than anything else.
He knew who the goddess of death was. As one of the five gods of Marvel, she controlled the law of death and was the embodiment of the end of all things. If she took away Uncle Ben's soul, then what could he use to snatch it from her?
Gu Yi looked at Mu En who was a little depressed, stood up and patted Mu En on the shoulder.
"Child, you don't have to put too much pressure on yourself. Some things are already destined, but there is still a chance that they will not change."
Mu En raised his head and looked at Gu Yi.
"Master Ancient One, do you mean there is still a chance? Do you have any other ideas?"
Gu Yi shook his head.
"No, I can't. Compared with the supreme being of death, I am too insignificant. I am just the guardian of the earth, protecting it from invasion from the outside world. I can't help you ask the goddess of death for your soul."
Mu En sighed.
"But you said there was still a chance."
Gu Yi smiled.
"Yeah, I really have no choice, but you are different."
"Me? You must be kidding, Master Ancient One."
Mu En was stunned. Even you, the Supreme Master Gu Yi, can’t do anything about it, so what can I do?
The Ancient One consoled him.
"Don't underestimate yourself, kid. You have the potential to create miracles."
Mu En was a little confused. Did he see a different future in himself?
Gu Yi seemed to know what Mu En was thinking and spoke directly.
"Child, I have peeked into the future through the Eye of Agamotto, but you did not exist in the future I saw. I only discovered you yesterday, but I saw a power in you that I have never seen before."
Mu En was even more confused about the power he had never seen before?
But the little bat on his shoulder spoke proudly.
"Of course. How can a magician like him see the power of the noble Demon King casually?"
Chapter 145: The Duties of a Mage
Faced with the little bat's disrespect, Ancient One was not angry.
He just looked at Mu En and said.
"Child, just before I met you, I tried to use the Eye of Agamemnon to explore your future, but I saw nothing in you."
"I didn't see anything? Are you saying I have no future?"
Gu Yi shook his head and said as he looked out the window.
"You should know an old Chinese saying, 'There are fifty great ways, forty-nine are created by nature, and only one is missing.'"
Mu En scratched his head.
"Isn't this a common setting in fantasy novels?"
Although magic sounds like fantasy, it has nothing to do with this.
Ancient One explained patiently.
"In fact, this principle is universal in many situations. Although many things in the future are already predetermined, there are still variables, and in my opinion, you are that variable."
Mu En was confused. How could this guy change his face so quickly? Didn't he say before that fate was predetermined? Why did he say now that it could be changed? Isn't this a contradiction?
Seeing Mu En's expression, Gu Yi coughed lightly and said.
"What I mean is, if it were someone else, perhaps fate would have been sealed, but for you there might still be a glimmer of hope."
“Where is the opportunity then?”
"I don't know. You need to find it yourself."
Mu En frowned and said, isn't this the same as not saying anything?
However, Mu En still bowed slightly to Gu Yi sincerely.
"Thank you for your guidance, Master."
Gu Yi looked at Mu En and smiled slightly.
"Want to go outside and see the whole picture of Kamar-Taj?"
Mu En gladly accepted the invitation from Ancient One. He also wanted to see what this mysterious wizard temple looked like.
Gu Yi waved his hand, the door of the room opened, and Mu En followed Gu Yi out of the hall.
The true appearance of Kamar-Taj gradually appeared in front of Muen. It was like a huge college with classrooms, playgrounds, libraries, and dormitories.
On the wide playground, the master's disciples were practicing, lined up in neat rows, chanting uniform slogans, and each move seemed as if they had been cast in the same mold.
However, for some reason, the more Mu En looked at it, the more he felt that this place did not look like a temple of mages, and even more like Shaolin Temple.
Approaching, what kind of wizard trains to practice using swords, guns, sticks and clubs? They obviously all know cool magic, but they have to rush forward to fight in close combat. Is it really as the saying goes, a wizard who can't fight in close combat is not a good wizard?
Along the way, all the mages who met Ancient One saluted one by one. They didn't say much to Mu En, a stranger, after all, he was led by Ancient One himself.
After a tour, Ancient One brought Muen to the highest point of Kamar-Taj to overlook the entire situation.
"How does it feel?"
Mu En scratched his head and smiled.
"Haha, it feels good. Everyone is in high spirits."
They are really spirited. Each of them is as spirited as a berserker. If I ever learn magic, I will definitely not be like them. Wouldn't it be better to be a wizard and just play in the back row? They have to wield swords and guns, which is not elegant enough for a wizard.
When Gu Yi heard Mu En say yes, he nodded with satisfaction.
"That's good. If one day I'm gone, I hope you can lend a hand when Kamar-Taj needs help."
Mu En's expression suddenly froze. Why did it seem like he was making arrangements for his funeral arrangements?
Suddenly he remembered the plot of the death of the Ancient One in Doctor Strange. Could it be that he already knew his future?
Mu En looked at Master Gu Yi. Gu Yi had a calm expression and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking.
