Marvel: Killing Makes You Stronger

Chapter 101: Sorcerer’s Tower?



Chapter 101: Sorcerer’s Tower?

The day remained gloomy. Deep in the mountains southwest of Forks Town, Bi Xiao rode a Ducati motorcycle with Bella to the top of a mountain.

Green was the only color in Forks, giving it a cold and eerie appearance, like a classic scene from a horror movie. In the depths of the mountains, the greenery was vibrant, and the rain made the forest very humid.

Casually parking the bike and setting up the stand, Bi Xiao led Bella to a cliff at the mountain's peak. From this vantage point, they could overlook the dense forest and the lake ahead.

"Bella, have you ever thought about learning magic?"

Bi Xiao and Bella stood at the edge of the cliff.

Indeed, Bi Xiao intended to teach Bella magic. Bella was just an ordinary person; without the necklace he gave her, she might be physically weaker than most girls. Compared to someone like him, who had reached a transcendental level of existence, almost akin to a demi-god, her lifespan was extremely short.

With his current level of life, living for a hundred thousand years would be easy.

Moreover, due to the unique properties of magic, which could stimulate cell division and nourish cellular activity, this time could potentially be infinitely extended.

Bi Xiao did not believe in the notion that love is brief yet brilliant like fireworks.

Furthermore, this world was fraught with dangers. Any misstep could lead to injury or death due to some unforeseen event. Regardless of the reason, he had to ensure Bella had enough power to guarantee her own safety.

Currently, the most suitable means is magic.

What he intended to teach was his improved version of magic. Given his current magical prowess, he could easily modify basic to advanced magic into his own system without any pressure.

The challenge was that Bella's body lacked energy.

Bi Xiao had already thought of a solution to this.

"Magic? Can I learn it?"

In the Western world, magic was a power that countless people dreamed of, both in childhood and adulthood. No one would refuse the opportunity to become a magician.

Bella naturally felt the same way.

The difference was, Bella was more eager to learn magic so that she could stand beside Bi Xiao one day and offer her help.

"Of course. The language of magic has existed since the dawn of civilization. Long ago, Sorcerers called this language 'spells'. If translated into modern terms, it could be understood as a program, constructing the source code of the real world."

"Sorcerers gather energy, drawing from other spaces in the vast universe, reciting spells to forge shields and weapons, thus performing magic."

"For example~~"

Upon receiving Bella's affirmative response, Bi Xiao began explaining the most basic knowledge of magic. In the end, he demonstrated by forming a simple yet elegant magic circle in the air with deft hand movements.

A golden thread of light began to flow with his fingertips, forming a brilliant pattern that floated quietly in the air.

Bella's delicate face was filled with awe.

"This is based on the foundational concepts and knowledge of magic from the Sorcerers of Kamar-Taj. Due to my unique circumstances, I bypassed the process of drawing energy from the distant universe. After some improvements, I developed a magic system that suits me best."

"The difference in this magic system is not significant. What you need to do most is to draw from my energy and understand the basic knowledge of magic."

"Draw from your energy?"

Bella was puzzled. How was this different from drawing energy from other multiverse spaces?

"The world requires a price for everything. The same applies to magic. Sorcerers, from the very beginning, are just ordinary people. Their bodies cannot generate or store energy, so they need to borrow energy from other dimensional spaces to help them cast spells."

"But this also comes at a cost. When they draw energy, they essentially sign a contract with the master of that dimensional space's energy. This contract becomes effective upon their death, and the cost is very high."

Unless one reaches the level of the Ancient One, who could default on a high-interest loan without repayment.

How many can become like the Ancient One?

"So, you don't need to learn this method."

Bella understood this point. Bi Xiao had paved the way for her; she only needed to borrow Bi Xiao's energy. As for the price, Bella could already imagine some intimate scenes, with a blush spreading across her delicate face.

Seeing Bella's expression, Bi Xiao couldn't help but tap her head.

"For now, learn the basic knowledge first. The necklace I gave you can connect to my dimensional space, automatically replenishing magical power and gradually enhancing your physical attributes."

"I understand."

Subsequently, Bi Xiao transferred a portion of the foundational magical knowledge he had learned to Bella through mental transmission. This portion of knowledge was already vast.

Do not be deceived by how he seemingly mastered the basic to advanced magic of Kamar-Taj within a year.

In reality, his example was not replicable. When he went to Kamar-Taj, his life level had already undergone several leaps of evolution. His brain was more powerful than a supercomputer; he could completely memorize and quickly digest any information he saw.

For an ordinary person to fully grasp this basic magical knowledge, it would take years.

The amount of information was enormous. Bella, being an ordinary person, had limited capacity for information processing. Transmitting all the basic magical knowledge at once could overwhelm her mind.

This had to be done step by step.

The advantage of this transmission method was that it saved a lot of time and prevented forgetting. Later, Bi Xiao used various magic spells to broaden Bella's horizons.

By evening, after sending Bella home, Bi Xiao returned to his RV and began contemplating his ideas.

He planned to construct something akin to a Sorcerer's Tower, a Floating City, or the Heavenly Court of the angels from the Transcend the God (Xiong Bing Lian).

Similar to the dimensional space he created to store magical power, he intended to integrate this space with his new concept.

It would not only store magical power but also serve many other functions.

He anchored the dimensional space within his mental realm, though this inherently carried certain risks.
