Chapter: 212

"Um... Hello, respected Ancient One. Your sudden appearance really startled me. You should know that trespassing is illegal, especially in broad daylight..."

Although Mark was very surprised by the arrival of the Ancient One, he quickly calmed down as someone who had experienced many grand scenes.

"I don't quite understand what danger you're referring to. I have encrypted the information rigorously before sending it. I can ensure its security and that it won't be deciphered by anyone other than me."

"I certainly believe in your intelligence, Mark. In fact, I know more about you than you might imagine. Through some means, I have explored the trajectory of your life over the past seventeen years, and I dare say you are the smartest person I have ever encountered in my long existence.

Although sometimes you employ certain methods to further your research, overall, you are indeed a brilliant and benevolent genius.

However, despite the extraordinary talent you have demonstrated in just seventeen years of life and the knowledge you have accumulated, which would take an ordinary person a lifetime to learn, your insight is still shallow.

Do you think those dangerous entities within the magic network care about the meaning behind the messages you send? You're mistaken, my child!

They only want to know the source and destination of the information and trace it back to this world to invade and conquer it.

Your information is the guiding light for their arrival, and even if you wrap it in the tightest shell, it cannot deter the greed of these ambitious beings."

"Perhaps you have a point. It seems there is much more for me to learn if I want to safely use the magic network. But I believe I can solve this minor issue soon," Mark confidently said.

"Of course, I never doubted that, my child. However, if you want to master magic and the knowledge of sorcery more quickly, I can offer you a good destination.

I have established a temple in the Himalayas where I teach individuals with the talent of sorcery to recognize and develop their potential.

And you clearly possess such talent. So what I want to say is — Kamar-Taj welcomes your arrival.

But if you decide to enter Kamar-Taj for study, you'll first need to pass a small test. You have to find the true location of Kamar-Taj yourself, but I don't think this test will be too difficult for you.

Now, let's end this somewhat impolite meeting. Once again, I remind you, my child, when you gaze into the abyss, the abyss also gazes back into you. Don't conduct any further experiments until you have a clear understanding of the magic network.

I'll be waiting for you at Kamar-Taj, anticipating your arrival."

After saying these words, the Ancient One didn't care about Mark's attitude and confidently opened a spatial portal, leaving Mark's laboratory.

But the Ancient One had every reason to be confident. Having already demonstrated magic in front of people, would they still doubt Mark's willingness to cooperate? Besides, the Ancient One possessed the Eye of Agamotto, with foresight of five hundred years in the past and future. The Ancient One might have already seen through Mark's reactions, leaving no reason to doubt.

"I didn't pay attention earlier and missed it, but now I've caught on. I have witnessed the Supreme Sorcerer's magic. But with the Ancient One coming over, apart from giving me a warning, it seems she wants to make a contract with me and turn me into a magical teenager?" Mark muttered to himself, looking at the now completely closed spatial portal where the Ancient One had disappeared.

"Baymax, did you capture the data I asked you to?" Once Mark confirmed that the visitor was the Ancient One and harbored no ill intentions toward him, he immediately communicated with Baymax through telepathic waves. He instructed Baymax to activate the quantum field generator to record the moment when the Ancient One used magic before leaving.

His purpose in doing so was not only to find ways to counter it, as no one would want their private domain treated as a public park for anyone to enter and exit at will. Additionally, Mark hoped that the data from the spatial portal opened by the Ancient One could provide some support for his own spatial portal project.

This project had been in development for quite some time but had been stuck at a bottleneck. Mark had been busy with various new research projects, resulting in a delay with no progress made so far.

If he could achieve a breakthrough using the teleportation magic of Kamar-Taj as a starting point, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that humanity would enter the interstellar age. Distance would no longer be a limitation on the path of human exploration, and the abundant resources of the universe would become easily accessible.

"Master, all the data has been uploaded to your private server and has been strictly encrypted."

"Very well, let them rest in the server for now. Before continuing with the research work, perhaps I should recharge myself."

"Please book a flight ticket for me to Kathmandu. I'm going on an impromptu trip!"
