Marvel's Dark Shadows

A ray of sunlight in the early morning shone through the paper window into the dim room. Stephen frowned, opened his eyes and sat up. His slightly narrowed eyes revealed a sense of tiredness. Obviously, he did not sleep well last night. .

Subconsciously, he put his hands on the wooden bed to prop up his body further, but a sharp pain reminded him. He raised his hands and looked at the ten fingers twitching continuously. Stephen's face became sad.

"Even though I have seen the wonders of magic, I can't even outline the most basic magic circle. When can I heal my hands?"

Stephen struggled to get out of the bed. After trying several times, he finally grabbed the towel and wandered towards the water room.

After a simple wash, Stephen followed the mage apprentices who rushed to the meditation room, frowning all the way. Their teacher Loki assigned homework yesterday, and they will start practicing today. Most of the students' faces were filled with excitement. , only Stephen was at a loss.

The morning meditation class passed quickly due to Stephen's distraction. He was not in the mood to have breakfast. Stephen arrived at the square first. With a serious expression, he stretched out his hand in the air and began to outline the magic circle. Golden particles crackled in the air, but Because of the incompleteness of his hands, often when he was about to succeed, the magic circle failed due to hand twitching. The more he practiced, the more frustrated Stephen became.

"This is the course I taught you a week ago. Although I think most of the magic spread by Kama Taj does not require brain, you gave me a bigger scare."

A long voice sounded behind Stephen, and Stephen quickly stopped what he was doing, feeling even more depressed. The person who came was actually Loki, the teaching mage of Kama Taj Academy.

"The magic flowing in your body tells me that you should be able to get an A in your meditation class, but why is your actual operation so eye-catching?"

Loki walked over to the helpless Stephen, with a faint smile on his face.

"My hands, they make it impossible for me to concentrate on completing the formation of a magic circle."

Stephen lowered his head. An elite surgeon who once held everything in his hands, now performed poorly in magic class due to the disability of his hands. The psychological gap from genius to waste made Stephen look quite haggard.

"That's because you're not enough."

Loki commented lightly.

"No, I put in more effort than others. I have to practice until late at night every day. I only sleep three hours a day. If it weren't for my hands...

"You are mistaken, what do you think is magic?"

There was a hint of disdain in Loki's eyes, but his tone was still gentle.

"You are still using scientific concepts to learn magic, but the subject of magic actually has nothing to do with everything you originally knew."

"Don't think about your hands. They are not the main body of your magic release, your heart is."

After Loki finished speaking, he disappeared, and the students came to the square one after another from the cafeteria.

Stephen was frozen in place, thinking carefully about Loki's words, while the mage apprentices standing in line were whispering while waiting for the teacher to arrive.

A young man in a suit appeared quietly in front of the crowd, put his hand into a fist and put it close to his mouth and coughed lightly.

"Ahem, well, I am the honorary dean of Kama Taj, Franklin. Actually, I don't need to teach, but your teacher Rocky has something to do today, so I will come over and explain what you learned yesterday. "

The mage apprentices below were quiet for a while, but soon started talking all over again.

"Teleportation array, sir, we are going to actually operate the teleportation array today."

"Oh~ Teleportation is really a low-end method. Of course, it should be very magical to you, let me think about it."

Franklin pondered for a few seconds, and then did not make any move. The environment around everyone changed directly. The bluestone slabs under his feet turned into dark scarlet soil, and the natural sky simulated by the magic enchantment also turned into extremely dim. night view of stars.

"This is Mars. Of course, I have left enough oxygen for you to breathe, and I have left the Earth's positioning magic for each of you. You need to sense it and then open the portal to return to the Earth. This is easier than positioning yourself. Keep it simple.”

"However, you only have five minutes to outline the portal each time. If you don't succeed in five minutes, then you will be teleported to a farther planet, or even another galaxy. It is not impossible to reach the edge of the universe."

Franklin dug into his coat pocket and took out a pocket watch, then threw it on the ground and disappeared in front of everyone with a faint smile.

As soon as Franklin disappeared, the apprentices immediately exploded, but they were limited to one or two verbal complaints. Everyone hurriedly began to outline the magic circles they had learned before. Unfortunately, although Franklin did leave them with positioning magic. , but this distance still poses a problem for most apprentices. Locating the destination is simple, but the distance calculation in the middle stumps everyone.

"Emperor Weishan, even if the teleportation at this distance reaches the earth, a slight miscalculation may send you directly to the center of the earth."

A blond man was sweating profusely and mumbling, but his hand movements did not stop at all, because once he was teleported to a farther place, the calculation would be more difficult.

However, most of them opened the portal before time passed, and then got in anxiously. This undoubtedly caused huge pressure on the students who had not yet succeeded.

During this period, no one thought about stepping on other people's teleportation gates, but when they walked nearby, they were blocked by a strange force field. Moreover, under the interference of the mysterious force field, the student who successfully opened the teleportation circle was also attacked by magic. , after the golden Kongjiamen dissipated, he spat out a mouthful of old blood.

Stephen's hands were trembling, and cold sweat had already soaked his simple cloth. Watching the people around him teleport away one by one, Stephen didn't feel panic. His previous experience as a surgeon left him with valuable experience. Unfortunately, his hands twitched uncontrollably, and the magic circle collapsed.

""

With a desperate curse, several figures disappeared directly from Mars.

The next second, looking at the surrounding environment where they could not see their fingers, the students who had not succeeded on Mars knew that they were further away from the sun.

Feeling the looming positioning magic, everyone had no time to complain. They all worked hard to carve out the magic circle. Five minutes passed slowly. After the next forced teleportation, Stephen called out in despair. After a few words, I sadly discovered that I was really the only one left here this time.
