Chapter 012 Just Rely On Luck?!
Previously, the portal always opened sideways because he was new to the technique and couldn't accurately locate it. Unexpectedly, Modu actually sent him a hanging ring?!
Although he was now proficient in portal magic, the hanging ring not only helped with positioning but also allowed the mage to perform cross-dimensional teleportation more effectively.
In other words, if Luo Bai wanted to learn the advanced version of teleportation magic—from teleportation within the same dimension to teleportation across dimensions—the hanging ring was a necessary magical tool!
Modu sending him the hanging ring at this time was like icing on the cake!
"The Supreme Mage asked me to bring this to you. You should need it." Just as he was thinking about it, Modu suddenly explained.
Luo Bai didn't respond; he simply took the hanging ring and put it on his hand.
He felt the difference the moment he wore it.
Before, he had to concentrate hard to focus, but with the hanging ring, his attention seemed to sharpen instantly, saving him a lot of time.
"What a treasure." Luo Bai couldn't help but sigh.
If he had received it earlier, he would probably have learned twice as fast!
"It's called the Hanging Ring, and it's one of the essential magical tools for mages. It helps us focus better and travel through the multiverse," Modu briefly explained its use.
Although Luo Bai already knew this, he still expressed his gratitude: "Thank you for delivering it personally."
"It's no trouble," Modu replied calmly, introducing himself. "I am a disciple of the Supreme Mage and a great mage of Kamar-Taj. Now that you have this, you can consider yourself a mage of Kamar-Taj as well. In the future, feel free to call me Modu."
Although there is no strict hierarchy in Kamar-Taj, there are still general titles, such as apprentice mage, mage, temple mage, and archmage.
Generally, only the most powerful are called archmages, and Modu is one of Kamar-Taj's archmages.
Luo Bai was aware of this, making him even more curious about other matters at this time.
With the Ancient One's character and strength, it was impossible for her to forget to give the Xuan Ring unless she didn't want to give it at all.
Since she hadn't given it before, why did she suddenly ask Modu to deliver the hanging ring?
Thinking of this, Luo Bai asked tentatively, "Did the Supreme Mage say anything else?"
Modu obviously understood his meaning and smiled. "Just now, a portal appeared in Kamar-Taj, transporting a man named Obadiah to the Supreme Mage."
Obadiah?!
Wait!
So he sent Obadiah to Kamar-Taj? And to the Ancient One?
Luo Bai felt a bit embarrassed and sheepishly asked, "Then what...?"
"He called the Supreme Mage a bald man and wanted to attack, so he was exiled by her," Modu briefly explained the situation.
Luo Bai was stunned upon hearing this.
Goodness!
He only dared to think of the Ancient One as bald, but Obadiah actually said it out loud?
Tsk tsk.
"Where was he exiled to? Will he come back?" Luo Bai continued to inquire.
Modu shook his head and replied calmly, "He's traveling through the multiverse."
Luo Bai: "..."
It's not wise to offend anyone but the Ancient One.
Tsk tsk.
"Obadiah, you sent him to Kamar-Taj, right?" Just as he was pondering this, Modu suddenly asked.
In an instant, Luo Bai's thoughts were pulled back.
"Um... yes. But it was an accident. I didn't expect him to end up in Kamar-Taj," Luo Bai explained.
Modu was not surprised and even expressed understanding.
"I heard from the Supreme Mage that you haven't learned magic for long and didn't have a hanging ring. It's normal for this situation to happen. It should be much easier now that you have the ring," Modu said.
Before Luo Bai could respond, he continued to ask, "By the way, what stage of magic have you reached?"
"I just learned teleportation magic," Luo Bai replied.
After hearing this, Modu nodded and said, "It seems you're not very proficient in using teleportation magic yet. How long have you been practicing?"
"Not sure, probably a few days," Luo Bai said.
"..."
Although Modu had known Luo Bai was extremely talented, this answer still shocked him.
A few days... such a short time!
Now, learning magic was measured in days!
"How did you develop this talent? It's incredible!" Modu couldn't help but exclaim.
"Probably because... I have good luck," Luo Bai thought for a moment and answered honestly.
"How lucky?" Modu was taken aback and said half-jokingly, "Then how lucky do you have to be to possess such unique talent?"
"Pretty lucky," Luo Bai replied playfully.
Mordo didn't respond.
His mission of delivering the Xuan Ring was complete.
"I'm leaving now. If anything happens, feel free to come to Kamar-Taj to find me," Modu said as he prepared to depart.
Luo Bai stopped him and asked curiously, "Modu, didn't the Supreme Mage ask you to take me away too?"
Since Luo Bai was learning magic from Kamar-Taj and had received the Xuan Ring, shouldn't he go to Kamar-Taj to continue his studies?
But Modu didn't seem to intend to take him, which felt strange.
"The Supreme Mage wants you to first learn the magic in 'The Complete Collection of Supreme Masters' and take this opportunity to practice outside and gain some experience," Modu explained.
Luo Bai suddenly realized.
Does this mean he has been set free?
But anyway, he could learn by himself, so why not take advantage of that?
Moreover, only here could he practice actual combat, and only through real combat could he rapidly improve his strength.
After thinking this through, he didn't hesitate anymore.
After sending Modu away, Luo Bai once again devoted himself to learning magic.
With the hanging ring, it became much easier for him to concentrate, allowing him to learn magic more quickly.
Luo Bai knew some basic spells, such as teleportation and magical shields, and he could master them almost immediately after seeing them.
Once he grasped most of the basic magic, he started learning the advanced versions, practicing all night.
It wasn't until the arrival of Tony Stark the next morning that he paused for a moment.
"Hey, Luo Bai, did you sleep well last night?! I have some good news for you; do you want to hear it?"
"I know you want to hear it; you're famous~"
"Have you seen the latest newspapers and news?! We were in the headlines~ and on the front page!"
"How about 'Iron Man VS Mysterious Man'~~ Doesn't that sound good?!"
"Honestly, I think the title 'Iron Man' sounds great~~ I really like the name everyone gave me~~"
