Chapter 710: U: The Infinity Event (Part 26)
"Alright, everyone, put your wands on your dominant hand side, and put your notebooks and pens for recording on the other side. Ink bottles, water cups, and other containers holding liquids, please put them in the drawers. Don't let me hear anyone screaming because they knocked over a cup again..."
"Peter Parker, what are you still doing there? Class is about to start, please return to your seat."
Schiller, wearing a black robe, tapped the seat on the far left with his wand. Peter, who was still in shock, turned to look at the other Schiller who was holding the document, and at this time, Strange grabbed the other Schiller and said: "Don't disturb his class, let's go out and talk."
"Hey! But... no, you guys don't go yet! Give me an explanation, what's going on? How can there be two Dr. Schillers... uh, don't, I'll go sit down now." Peter turned his head while moving his legs, involuntarily walking toward the seat next to him.
"Alright, now, I will teach you to recognize the wand. Pick up the small wooden stick at your hand, yes, that's right, I call it a wand."
"Professor, can it cast magic?" A magic apprentice who looked like a little monk raised his hand and asked.
"Of course, when you don't have such strong control over magic, it will be your best partner." Potions Professor Schiller nodded.
"But, the Archmages all say that magic cannot rely on external objects, and one must rely on self-cultivation?" Another little girl raised her hand and asked.
"That's right, for the Archmages, it is indeed like this. Their control over magic has reached the point of perfection, and they only need to cultivate their own will to make magic as arm-fingers." Schiller nodded, appearing very patient, and then continued:
"The Archmages want you to cultivate your willpower because, in the previous era, magic power needed to be obtained by contracting with demons. If there was no strong will, it was very likely to be influenced by the dark power of demons, and eventually use magic to harm this world."
The apprentice mages below whispered to each other, and the whispering sound came. Peter looked left and right and found that he was the oldest in the entire classroom.
"But now..." Schiller changed the subject and said: "The traditional contract mode can still be used, but it is already slightly outdated. Now, the magic energy used by Kamar-Taj does not need individual mages to contract with demons one-on-one, and the safety has become much higher."
"However, this does not mean that you can learn to use them as soon as you come into contact with magic. Many powers are still very dangerous, but the pure energy repeatedly refined by the Archmages is stored in the small wooden stick in your hand. As long as you learn to use them, you have taken the first step in learning magic..."
Suddenly Peter raised his hand and asked: "Professor, what should I do if there is already magic energy in my body?"
"Pick up your wand, pay attention to start meditation, feel the energy fluctuation, and then inject the energy in your body into it... Yes, that's it, don't pinch it too tight, relax your wrist..."
Peter closed his eyes, only to see light appearing on his hand, and a burst of energy surged into the wand. He opened his eyes, looked at the small wooden stick in his hand and said: "Is this enough? But how do I cast spells?"
"Come, everyone, look at me." Schiller tapped the side of the podium with his wand and said: "I am just about to talk about this point. Use your dominant hand to gently pick up the wand. You can use your thumb and index finger, and some people are used to clamping the wand between their index and middle fingers..."
The little mages below followed suit. Because the little mages here were geniuses selected from thousands, not only was their talent good, but their concentration was also very strong, and they listened very attentively.
Unknowingly, Peter also fell into this atmosphere of learning, following Schiller to practice wand waving and spells.
Then, Peter discovered that as long as the sound frequency of the spell was matched with the wand movement on his hand, magic could be emitted.
This was much easier to understand than those philosophical explanations about fate and the like.
Discovering a more scientific method to utilize the power of magic, Peter began to no longer resist learning magic. His limb coordination was much better than these younger mages, so he learned the gestures very quickly. In less than ten minutes, he could cast the first magic.
Peter gently waved the wand in his hand, the tip of the wand drew a beautiful arc in the air, followed by an upward flick, and shouted the spell in his mouth:
"Wingardium—Leviosa!"
The paper placed on the table slowly floated up. Peter widened his eyes, showing a novel expression. The wand emitted a faint light, and a light band connected the tip of the wand and the paper.
Peter discovered that the wand was actually a tool with a set program. As long as the corresponding gestures and spells were used, the program inside could be activated, and magic energy could be converted into magic.
There was nothing mysterious about this process, nor did it require too much fantasy and guessing. Even very young mages could master it after practice.
After learning the basics of magic, some ideas began to pop up in Peter's mind.
If this small wooden stick could realize the conversion of magic energy into magic, then could a larger machine be designed to convert more magic energy into more powerful magic?
In this way, could even ordinary people cast magic as long as there was energy?
Peter, whose mind was full of cutting budgets and lowering thresholds, felt that he had opened a door to a new world.
Just when Peter was thinking, his super hearing played a role. He heard the voices of Strange and Schiller coming from outside the door:
"... aren't there already three of me over there? Nick is still short of people, what on earth does he want to do?"
"He said, at least five of you are needed. The Solar System Construction Project has drawn almost all S. H. I. E. L. D. agents. He hasn't finished the accounts for this quarter, and he even wants to draw the people on my side over..."
Strange's tone was full of helplessness, and he continued: "Seriously, can't there be ten more of you? I don't require them all to know magic, as long as they can teach..."
"You also know, now, the magic energy of Kamar-Taj is very sufficient, no need to pay a price, Wong has let go of his hands and feet to recruit people, there are still many genius children in this world, he recruited more than 100 at once..."
"A part of the children with excellent talent are led by Archmages to learn magic in the traditional way, and the rest are under my management. But the first batch of wands has just been rushed out, and ordinary mages don't know how to use them yet. Only you have experience. Since so many of you have been made, ten or so more shouldn't be too much, right?"
"Do you think this is copy and paste?" Schiller's voice came again, and he said: "Each of my dream universe versions has uniqueness. I can teach how to use the wand because in that dream universe, I was originally a professor at a magic school. You let other versions of me come over, they are just like other mages, they don't know how to use the wand at all..."
This series of "me" made Peter dizzy. He didn't understand what the situation was at all. Two Schillers weren't the limit? There were countless Schillers waiting outside?
He must be dreaming. Yes, only in a dream would such absurd plots appear. Peter shook his head hard, as if wanting to wake himself up, but just at this time, his spider-sense moved.
Peter concentrated and heard the "da-da" sound like plucking strings. He knew this was Spider-Silk contacting him. He took a deep breath, cleared the distracting thoughts in his mind, and then said in a low voice: "Spider-Silk, what's wrong?"
"Spider-Man... come back quickly... return to the base, Captain Universe said something happened, come back quickly..."
Peter woke up instantly. He saw the little mages who scattered like birds and beasts after class, shook his head, stood up, greeted Schiller on the podium, and then left the classroom.
"Hey, Mr. Strange, trouble sending me back to New York, I have something to do." Peter shouted at Strange who had just left.
Strange turned his head, looked Peter up and down, seemingly seeing something, and asked: "Do you need my help?"
"Yes, help me open a portal, I can solve the rest myself." After Peter finished speaking, as if remembering something, he ran back to the classroom quickly, picked up the wand on the table, and asked: "Can I take this away?"
"Of course you can, but remember, there are not only auxiliary magic in the wand, but also some lethal magic. Be careful, don't hurt anyone... forget it, Peter, I trust you." Strange patted Peter on the shoulder and said.
"Don't worry, Professor Schiller has already told me before, and I have remembered the spells, I will definitely not mix them up." Peter nodded.
Strange opened the portal, light flashed, and Peter returned to the streets of New York. He looked left and right to distinguish the direction, and then swung toward one direction.
Not long after, he saw another swinging figure in the air. The Amazing Spider-Man landed on the roof of a building. Peter followed closely. Before he could speak, the Amazing Spider-Man said first: "Did you receive Spider-Silk's communication? It seems that something happened on their side."
"Zhang Parker and I are both away, the Spider-Men are leaderless. Once they are ambushed, the consequences will be unimaginable. Let's go back first."
Peter nodded and said: "I still have a lot of magic energy on me, but I can only use the last shuttle, and I'm not sure where the landing point will be after going back. Anyway, let's be prepared first."
The two Spider-Men first replenished the raw materials for their web shooters and repaired them to restore their physical strength. Then, Peter put his hand on the Amazing Spider-Man's shoulder, magic light flashed, and the two returned to the original time and space.
The landing point of time travel is random. The two landed in a desolate space of the universe. There were not even stars here, only two lonely, uninhabitable planets.
The Amazing Spider-Man picked up the transmitter Zhang Parker gave him. Before he could activate the transmission, a figure emitting white light descended into this space. Captain Universe Spider-Man looked at the two of them and said: "You are finally back, everyone is waiting for you."
"What on earth is going on? Why did Spider-Silk suddenly send us an emergency message? Before, didn't she say that she had a headache because of frequent communication? Did you encounter any emergency?"
Captain Universe Spider-Man nodded and said: "Perhaps, you know, my power comes from Eternity, one of the gods of the multiverse."
"Just now, my soul was summoned by Eternity. He gave me a task that requires all Spider-Men to complete. As a reward, he will help us wipe out Solus."
The Amazing Spider-Man widened his eyes and said: "Eternity? Who is he? Is he very powerful? Can he actually eliminate Solus?"
"Of course, Solus's power is not worth mentioning compared to him. As long as we can complete that task, the Inheritor family will no longer endanger Spider-Men."
"That's a good thing, then what task did he give?"
"Travel through the multiverse and capture all Schillers." ===== CHAPTER 711 =====
