Time soon came to the next day, and Sona met Strange in the study, and they sat face to face.
After so many days, he finally had the chance to take a good bath, shave off his messy beard, and trim his hair. Strange regained his handsome appearance, but his expression was still vaguely lost. After all, he didn't completely believe Sona's words and just thought she was comforting him.
"Strange, do you believe in magic?" Sona asked first.
As a typical atheist, Strange certainly believes in science.
"Uh, I don't believe..." Before he finished speaking, Strange realized something was wrong. He knew that Miss Sona was born voiceless. She was sitting opposite him just now and didn't say a word. What was that sudden sound?
"Don't believe it? It doesn't matter."
"Wait! Who is talking?" Strange suddenly stood up and looked around vigilantly. Although the ethereal female voice was very nice, it was a little too weird.
"Don't be nervous, it's the voice ringing in your head." Sona found it a little funny to see Strange being frightened. It seemed that Tony had been frightened by this ability before.
Strange turned his gaze back to Sona. He still couldn't understand why Sona could speak without opening her mouth. Was it ventriloquism?
In order to make Strange accept the existence of magic more quickly, Sona chose a quicker way.
The green shield and levitation magic of Aria of Resoluteness, which were exposed by the media, were said by SHIELD to be high-tech. Strange probably thought so too, so Sona had to change to some other magic.
Let’s start with a simple one.
Sona stretched out her right hand and formed a ball of light in her palm.
The bright white ball of light was reflected in Strange's pupils. It took him a while to realize that if he looked directly at it, his eyes would be burned. He quickly shifted his gaze, and his facial expressions changed a lot.
"What is that?" The medical doctor, who had believed in science for more than 20 years, first reacted and thought it was a high-energy incandescent lamp.
"As you can see, it's magic."
Sona mobilized the elemental energy around her and transformed the light ball into a fireball, a water ball, lightning, and a wind ball. Finally, she turned it into an ice ball and left it on the table, proving that those things just now existed and were not illusions.
"My voice is also transmitted to your brain through magic." Sona explained patiently to Strange.
His previous worldview was overturned in an instant, and Strange was unable to recover for a while.
He couldn't help but touch the ice on the table with his hand, wanting to verify its authenticity. Although he only had a faint feeling left in his hand, he was still stung by the cold touch.
It's real! Magic is real!
Many mysteries in Strange's mind were solved at once, such as why the scalpel could not cut Sona's skin, why Sona could restore her injured body by herself, and the fighting methods used under the guise of high technology during the battle in New York.
It turns out these are all magic!
"Magic can heal my hands, right?" Strange was a little excited.
"Magic is fine, but it can't be me, it can only be you." Sona's words made Strange confused.
"Me? But I'm not a magician..." Having said this, Strange seemed to understand what Sona meant.
"That's right, Strange, are you ready to accept this?" Sona took out many parchment scrolls, the so-called textbooks, from the セ古琴.
Looking at the expression on Sona's face, Strange seemed to recall the mentor who had persuaded him to study medicine.
Picking up a parchment scroll and scanning it, Strange suddenly felt that his hairline seemed to move back a few inches.
......
Ancient One walked out of the golden portal and returned to Kamar-Taj, then walked out... uh, floated out, along with the long-missing Kassadin.
The destination of her journey this time was not the dark realm, but the void, because she received a request for help from Kassadin.
"Thank you, Master Ancient One." Kassadin touched the wound on his body, still feeling a little scared.
He didn't expect that in addition to those great gods, there would be creatures in the void that were faster than him. He almost lost his life. Fortunately, during his escape, he urgently contacted the Supreme Sorcerer of the Earth and escaped.
However, the Void Mantis who called himself Kha'Zix was really terrifying. Even Ancient One's mirror space was ineffective against him, and he still escaped.
"You're welcome. I should thank Mr. Kassadin for what he has done for the Earth." Ancient One smiled and replied modestly.
They are all guardians of the Earth now. Maybe if something happens in the dark realm in the future, Ancient One will ask Kassadin for help.
After arranging for Kassadin to rest, Ancient One called Mordo.
"Mordo, has a man named Stephen Strange visited recently?" Ancient One calculated the time. She had advanced the task of training the next Sorcerer Supreme, and now it was time.
"No, does the Supreme Sorcerer have any mission?" Mordo reported truthfully.
"No?" Gu Yi's expression did not change, but he began to feel suspicious.
Wait, I’m Black Cleaver... No, where’s my apprentice?
After letting Mordo leave first, Ancient One began to use magic to sense Strange's location.
Then her expression began to become strange, and Gu Yi indeed had not guessed that this would be the case.
The Time Stone seemed to have blocked everything about Sona. When she did the trick, she didn't see this ending coming.
Strange is the next Sorcerer Supreme of Earth, but now he is being snatched away by Sona? Isn't it a shame to let him learn Valoran magic?
Wait, why not?
Ancient One suddenly realized that with Strange's talent, it shouldn't be a big problem to learn another skill.
Moreover, if the ancient magic of the earth is taught to him later, Strange's achievements in magic will be unimaginable!
"The future is still something to look forward to." Gu Yi slowly sat back in his armchair and used magic to make himself a cup of tea.
In the past, she had peeked into time and had a good idea of everything that would happen in the future. Although this helped her avoid many disasters, for her personally, her life had lost its meaning.
Just like no matter how fun a single-player game is, the original gaming experience will be lost when using plug-ins.
But since the appearance of Sona and Valoran, everything has become unpredictable. The heart of the Ancient One, which has been cold for a hundred years, seems to be gradually regaining vitality.
Volume 1: Chapter 107: You thought it was magic? Actually it's science!
"You can already sense the elements around you?" Sona's expression was very surprised, her eyebrows raised, her beautiful eyes looking at Strange in a daze.
You know, only ten days have passed.
Sona thought that even if the parchment scroll she gave Strange was a math test paper, it would take him more than ten days to finish it. What's more, it was magical knowledge that he had never been exposed to before. How could he master it so quickly?
"Have you memorized all these things?"
"Almost done, Master."
"I've told you many times not to call me Master, just call me Sona."
Sona really couldn't accept this title. It was okay to call him teacher or mentor, but master sounded like an Ionian ninja. I really didn't know where Strange learned such an oriental title.
As if she didn't believe that Strange had mastered it completely, Sona asked him some more questions.
"The basic principle of fire elemental plasticity?"
"Use mental power to control and arrange the fire elements in a special sequence, and then use magical energy to stimulate it to release its energy." Strange memorized the concept word for word.
There are certain requirements for the special sequence. Whether the magic released is a fireball or a flaming sword depends on the special sequence.
"An example of elemental magic being incompatible with each other?"
"When magical elements are arranged in the wrong order or conflicting elements are adjacent, it can cause spellcasting to fail."
In simple terms, if a magician wants to release a rock shield wall for defense and a water arrow attack, it is best not to release them at the same time, otherwise he may summon a lump of cement to cover his own face or the enemy's face.
Of course, magicians with high mental strength can avoid such strange operations.
In fact, Strange has been feeling a little dry these days.
When he got so many parchment scrolls, he thought he was about to be exposed to more mysterious and profound knowledge, so he specially cleared the inventory in his mind in order to welcome the baptism of new magical knowledge.
With his photographic memory and ability to read ten lines at a glance, Strange quickly read and memorized everything on the parchment scroll.
Then, he was messy.
Is this magic? Isn't this chemistry?
What is the fire element? Isn’t it just the combustible gas in the air plus oxygen?
And there is the so-called element conflict. Isn't it because those chemical elements will explode when they react together?
If you truly understand the contents of the parchment scroll, you can actually explain them using modern scientific theories.
Moreover, the ignition point, density, melting point, etc. of modern scientific theories also have corresponding explanations in magic.
If it weren't for theories such as mental power and magical energy that cannot be explained by science, Strange would have thought that he was not learning magic but reviewing scientific knowledge.
This is also the reason why Strange was able to master it so quickly. He was originally a top student who graduated from medical school. If these magic theories were viewed from a scientific perspective, they were only high school level stuff.
Apart from not having enough mental strength, Strange is now considered a magician.
"Is this high talent?" Sona felt a little shocked.
If those old wizards in Ionia knew about this, they would definitely fight to get Strange to be their disciple.
No wonder the Overlord would say that.
Can't compare, can't compare.
Fortunately, his mental strength was not very high, otherwise he would have been caught up.
Sona sighed with a complicated mood in her heart, handed the second-stage theory she had prepared in advance to Strange, and then told him through telepathy.
"We'll prepare tonight, and tomorrow we'll have to find a place to do the actual operation."
The theory of magic is actually an auxiliary method, like a formula. If you don't have practical experience, your mental strength cannot be effectively improved by relying solely on breathing techniques.
Ultimately, the strength of a magician is determined by his mental power. Just like Sindra did not receive any education about magic since childhood, but with the growth of her mental power, her dark magic has reached an unparalleled level.
The higher the foundation of mental strength, the easier it is to master magic, and the smaller the side effects of magical energy on the body.
People who are born with high mental strength are natural mages and are also the targets of Demacia's demon hunters.
As long as Strange's mental strength reaches the qualified requirements and he can cast several more difficult spells, Sona will be able to safely channel the overgrown rune power into his body to restore the nerve cells in his hands.
This runic energy may also cause overgrowth in other parts of Strange.
Don't get me wrong, Sona is thinking about muscles, after all, Strange is already tall enough.
......
In a small room in the manor, Chris whispered a spell and summoned a luminous body.
That's right, she has also been secretly learning magic these days.
The excuses released by SHIELD are just to deceive civilians. If Sona's fighting style was high-tech, SHIELD would have started mass production long ago.
As the so-called "steward of the manor", it was easy for her to enter and exit Strange's room, and she secretly recorded the contents of those parchment scrolls.
This is a door to a new world! After reading it, Chris felt more excited than ever before.
After sending a copy to the headquarters, Chris began to learn the theoretical magic knowledge herself.
I don’t know if it’s because Valoran’s magic system is too easy to get started with, or because Chris’s basic mental strength is higher, but she actually mastered the method of controlling the surrounding elements earlier than Strange.
"Is this magic?" Looking at the ball of light condensed on her fingertips, Chris leaned her head closer and observed the beauty of magic up close.
Maybe because it was her first time, the ball of light condensed by Chris was not that dazzling, and had a filamentous structure, as if it could collapse at any time.
She gathered her mental strength and tried to transform the white ball of light into the fireball she had envisioned in her mind.
Then, it exploded.
The huge noise and air waves disturbed the objects in the room. Chris's fair face became as if smoked, and her golden hair stood up on her head, like ripe rice.
Fortunately, the power of the light ball she condensed was not very strong, and the explosion did not reach the level of hurting people.
A magic apprentice who studies elemental magic must experience at least a hundred such explosions before he can become a master.
Now Chris finally understood what Sona meant by the famous quote written on the parchment scroll. There is no such thing as practice makes perfect. It was just because she was scared by the explosion.
The maid washed her face, changed into a new set of clothes, and then came to Sona's room.
It's almost time for dinner, and Chris wants to ask Sona what she wants to eat today.
My young lady is indeed a foodie and has very high requirements for food. Fortunately, the chef in the manor has excellent skills.
After hearing the permission, Chris entered Sona's room.
Sona sat at her work desk, on which were neatly arranged various manuscript papers, all of which contained various preset plans. Sona was still writing something furiously.
In addition to guiding Strange in learning magic these days, Sona has focused all her energy on the resource management and allocation of the manor, and has indeed achieved considerable success. The manor used to be self-sufficient, but now it has begun to generate external profits.
However, these profits are insignificant compared to the assets of the manor itself.
This is also the reason why Sona is giving her a headache. Logically speaking, if the capital is large, the income should also be large. She doesn’t know which link has gone wrong.
"Ms. Sona, what are we having for dinner today?" After spending a few days with Sona, Chris's tone was not as strict as when they first met. The boundary between master and servant was actually not that obvious.
