Countless thoughts flashed through Luke's mind, and he thought of a possibility. "Training?"
Ancient One nodded naturally. "Not everyone can be a mage."
This basically confirmed Luke's guess, and even extended to an even deeper guess — did this bigshot need to personally say anything about an ordinary mage seedling?
Even if Ancient One seemed to treat Luke differently, there was no need for that.
"Sure." Luke said, "But you'll let me know in advance, right?"
Ancient One smiled. "Of course. But you still like to test people. "
Her words seemed normal, but in fact, her answer represented the importance of this person.
Luke was at least 80% sure that she was directly related to Ancient One.
Stunned for a moment, Luke nodded and apologized. "Sorry, I was rude."
He really hadn't done it on purpose; it was purely out of habit.
"It's fine." Ancient One said casually, "In front of me, you don't have to be so … well, polite."
Thinking of what a certain person would do in the future, she couldn't help but laugh.
Luke was confused, but he still asked again, "Then allow me to ask directly, can I learn that spell you just used?"
Even if there were many restrictions, a spatial gate was definitely a top-notch thing.
Ancient One shook his head with a smile.
Luke didn't mind. "Got it. Thank you."
Ancient One, however, patiently explained, "You won't learn it."
Luke was stunned. "Huh?"
Ancient One said, "You have your own pride, and you will definitely refuse to" borrow "Emperor Wilder's power."
Luke was stunned. Some information about Emperor Wilder flashed through his mind, and he roughly understood the reason.
He didn't explain anything and simply nodded. "Thank you for your explanation. Then are you here for the big octopus this time? "
Ancient One curled his lip and didn't think much of it. "Along the way."
Luke sweated. Along the way? Then why did I fight for so long?
Ancient One was really familiar with him, and added at the right time, "The mark left here by an ancient existence was inadvertently touched. Although it might not attract his attention, it's better to deal with it in advance. You should deal with the big octopus yourself. "
Luke asked, "What about the symbiotic body?"
Ancient One found that odd. "Don't you like collecting symbiotic bodies the most?"
Luke: … Tell me where you got your intelligence from! I promise I won't fall out with you.
It wasn't hard to understand why information about the Light of Life and Life One had been leaked; Luke had used them many times himself.
The monkey version of Life One was being sold all over the world. The Almighty Merchant had taken the initiative to spread the news among the top circle of people, so it was not a big secret at all.
But Ancient One knows that Seven Star and Batman are the same person, knows that he will not use the power of Wilder Mountain Emperor, and knows that he has collected a lot of Symbiotic Demons.
Even Selina, who followed Luke around every day, didn't know much about it.
At this moment, he seriously suspects that Ancient One has some kind of Super Mysterious Detection Spell.
Forget it, it was Emperor Wilishan's power after all! Thinking that, Luke sighed inwardly.
From the information he had obtained before, he had already discovered the problem of the source of the mages or the various spells in this world.
Most of the magical powers here were "borrowed."
For example, when Old Murphy said that a Lord of a certain Hell Dimension was actually borrowing the power of that Hell Dimension.
He was hell, and hell was him.
In that dimension, he was almost invincible. No one could kill him without destroying that hell.
In the words of online novels, it was similar to fusing with one's body, but Old Murphy could no longer get rid of that Hell Dimension, and his real body basically couldn't leave Hell.
He could only rely on his clones to collect high-quality souls and throw them back to Hell to increase the power of the dimension.
And those "people" who were given the power of Hell would continue to contribute power until they finally became a member of Hell.
The Emperor Wilishan that Ancient One mentioned was a little better than Old Murphy's Hell Dimension.
Hell was considered black, while Emperor Wilishan was a little more white.
But sooner or later, he had to pay for what he had done.
Whether he used the power of black or white, it was the same as signing a contract to sell himself.
The more power he took away, the faster he would become a part of it.
It was still the same old saying: Every gift given by fate had already been marked with a price in advance.
Although Luke didn't have any obvious magical abilities until now, most of his abilities came from himself.
The only exception was the system's auxiliary abilities.
But even if he lost the system at this moment, he would only lose his inventory, defense mechanism, and clone abilities.
Most of his other abilities wouldn't be affected in the slightest, because they all stemmed from the development and sublimation of his own power.
For Transcendents, it had always been a very high realm to have the mighty power return to oneself.
Without the Meow Meow Hammer, Thor's strength had dropped by at least half.
That was because the Meow Meow Hammer wasn't his, but had been forged by his father, Odin, with his divine power.
One day, Thor would be able to rely on his own strength to become the well-deserved God of Thunder, and his strength wouldn't be inferior to his current strength with the Meow Meow Hammer.
Thoughts popped up in Luke's mind, but he didn't show much of a reaction on the surface.
After a moment of silence, he said helplessly, "Fine, but that big octopus is too big, and it's not easy to kill …"
Ancient One simply said indifferently, "Can't you just catch it as a pet? You'll like it. "
Luke was lost for words. Sure enough, a bigshot bragging was extraordinary.
The starting pet was a hundred thousand tons. He couldn't afford to provoke it!
Before he could finish complaining, the big octopus finally arrived.
With a loud bang, it rushed up from the bottom of the sea, and its huge head emerged from the water.
Luke stared at the scene and understood: this was the scene in the painting of foresight.
He also understood why there was no island in the painting. It was because the island was behind the painting, so of course it didn't exist in the painting.
Assuming a fighting stance, he was ready to attack.
He didn't have any ideas on how to catch the big octopus, but one thing was definitely right — the two sides could completely "reach an agreement."
If it wasn't, then it was definitely because he hadn't hit enough and wasn't ruthless enough.
Ancient One, however, glanced at him and smiled. "It's just a little trouble. I'll deal with his mark first."
As she spoke, she stretched out her hand and flicked her wrist.
Swish!
An orange-red fan of light appeared in her hand out of thin air.
She waved her arm, and the orange-red fan of light formed circles of light and sparks in front of her, forming a complex, regular, and strange circular rune.
"Go!" Ancient One waved his wrist, and the spinning orange-red rune flew toward the big octopus that had just emerged in front of him.
Hiss!
The big octopus roared excitedly as it rushed out of the sea.
It felt that the mysterious place that was calling out to it was just a hundred meters ahead. As long as it entered, it would be able to …
Swish!
The orange-red rune hit its big head and sank into it without any hindrance.
The big octopus was stunned.
Its mind, which was so excited that it was about to explode, suddenly fell from its highest peak, and then completely disappeared, not even causing a small splash.
The whole process took less than two seconds. Its huge body had only emerged from the surface of the sea, and its head hadn't even emerged yet.
Boom!
Huge waves crashed against the island, and the big octopus's body fell, just in time to face Ancient One and Luke.
