Chapter 3 Black Wand
The weather is good today. It should be said that the weather has been good recently. .biquge
After visiting dozens of natural history museums in New York, Roy finally found a museum that exactly matched his memory.
Why is Roy looking for this natural history museum?
The reason is simple. Roy needs to have a reasonable encounter with Professor X, Storm Girl and others here.
So the question comes again, why does Roy want to have a chance encounter with Professor X and others?
The reason is also very simple. Roy needs to upgrade his natal wand, the black wand, and the key to upgrading the black wand lies with Professor X and his team.
To be precise, on Cyclops.
Having said that, I have to introduce Roy's natal wand, the black wand, once again.
The black wand was made by Dormammu using the power of the dark dimension. It is completely black, thin at the top and thick at the bottom. It is 35 centimeters long. The front end of the wand is wrapped with mysterious runes in red and blue.
The Black Wand contains not only all the magical knowledge of the Dark Lord Grindelwald, but also one-third of the power and magical knowledge of Dormammu, the Lord of the Dark Dimension.
In addition, the black wand also has the three abilities of upgrading, transforming, and responding to summons.
Upgrading, as the name suggests, means being able to continue to strengthen and upgrade, and the key to upgrading the Black Wand is energy. To be precise, it is all kinds of strange energy, such as the red shock wave shot from Cyclops's eyes, Thor's lightning, and Ghost Rider's hell. Fire and so on.
If it were in a normal world, these strange energies might not be easy to find, but this is the Marvel world, a magical world with mutants, aliens, cosmic gods and other non-human beings.
Not to mention there are all kinds of magical powers such as Infinity Stones, Phoenix Power, Odin Power, etc.
Here, Roy didn't have to worry about not finding these strange energies. The only thing he had to worry about was whether he would be pressed back and forth on the ground by the owner of these energies.
In addition to upgrading, the black wand's ability to transform and respond to summons is also very easy to understand.
Transformation, needless to say, is to transform into other forms, but currently the black wand can only transform into two other forms, one is a ring and the other is a stick.
That's right, it's a stick, one and eight meters long. It's a long black stick with red runes and blue runes wrapped around the front and back ends. It can be used to hit people directly, and it's quite powerful.
Responding to the summons is very similar to Thor's ability to summon Thor's hammer, or somewhat identical. Whenever Roy needs it, the black wand will fly directly to his hand no matter where it is.
If it is for other items, Roy can easily do it with his help.
But if the item you want to summon is a black wand, there will be a small problem.
Without the black wand, Roy couldn't cast it, so there was a problem. Roy couldn't summon the black wand, and the black wand's ability to respond to the summons solved this somewhat embarrassing problem.
……
The reason why Roy wanted to meet Professor
Although Roy could also choose to go directly to Xavier School for Gifted Youngsters to visit Professor
Although Professor
When it comes to protecting memory, Occlumency was originally the best choice.
Occlumency, as the name suggests, is the practice of sealing off the brain to combat mental intrusion and influence.
Although Occlumency can well resist the spiritual penetration of the outside world, during the learning process, it is necessary to clear the thoughts and emotions in the mind and cover up the emotional connections related to the memory, so as to avoid the discovery of this memory.
Roy already knew very well the principles of Occlumency, and Grindelwald had demonstrated how to release it correctly more than once.
But here comes the problem, Roy has never been able to learn Occlumency.
As for the reason, it may be the same as what Grindelwald said. Roy may be a person with relatively "complex" emotions, so he cannot clear his thoughts and emotions.
So in order to protect their own memories, Roy and Grindelwald had to adopt the second option and work together to develop a new magic.
It was said to be jointly developed, but in fact it was Roy who came up with the idea, and Grindelwald developed the curse based on Roy's creativity.
The function of the Iron Will Curse is very simple. It is to add a layer of protection to one's mind and spirit, making one's mind and spirit as strong as steel, and preventing one's memory from being read by psychics or controlling one's mind. .
Of course, because the Iron Will Curse is not a particularly powerful spell, when facing those with very powerful psychic abilities, such as Professor X, the Iron Will Curse cannot bring complete protection to Roy. At most, the spirit that can completely collapse in one minute is extended to ten minutes before it collapses.
In any case, the Iron Will Curse still gave Roy a great sense of security. At least it prevented him from having his memory read or his mind controlled unknowingly. This is why Roy dared to use Professor The confidence to create chance encounters in front of you.
So after deciding to use Cyclops as the first source of upgrade materials for the Black Wand, Roy cast the Iron Will Spell on himself.
And after more than three months and thousands of continuous uses, he successfully solidified the Iron Will Curse on himself and became a being similar to a natural ability.
……
In the food court of the Natural History Museum, Roy looked at the teenagers not far away with a calm expression.
"The question is simple, why are you acting cool?"
"Because, I can!"
Pyro John was seen playing with the lighter in his hand nonchalantly, with no intention of "borrowing a light" from passers-by.
When Pyro John and the others came to the food court, Roy recognized them at a glance.
Pyro John, Iceman Bobby, and Rugrats, who has a strand of gray hair due to excessive use of his superpowers.
Just like the plot in the movie, Pyro John's attitude angered the two teenagers who came to borrow a fire. What started out as borrowing a fire turned into robbing a lighter.
Seeing these two passers-by appearing from nowhere and snatching away his beloved lighter, Pyro John was not polite and used his super power without any scruples.
In just a blink of an eye, a flame suddenly spurted out from the cigarette that the passer-by boy lit, and instantly ignited the passer-by boy's sleeve.
The burning sleeves and the sudden vision frightened the passerby in an instant, causing him to fall to the ground in a panic and crawl out backwards at a loss.
Seeing that the flames were about to burn the passerby, Iceman Poppy stood up immediately and used his super power without hesitation.
An extremely cold breath surged out of Iceman Bobby's hand, quickly extinguishing the flames on the passerby's body.
As the flames on the passerby's body were extinguished, Iceman Bobby also stopped his super power. However, the pedestrians in the museum also stopped as the flames were extinguished. The originally noisy museum became quiet in an instant, like time. It's as if it's still at this moment.
"I've been waiting for you for a long time, Professor X! Charles Francis Xavier!"
