Chapter 1008: The Ring of Raggador, Introducing the Agent
"Let me introduce you, Black Shadow Ninja. You can think of me as one of my soldiers."
The little rascal blinked blankly, looking at the black shadow ninja's red eyes and dark red pupils, and couldn't help shivering, "Is this a soldier?"
"If you don't like it, you can also be a minion."
"are you kidding me?"
"Who's kidding? Don't forget that I'm the master of the Shadow Dimension." Aaron said proudly, "I have plenty of soldiers like this, but it's not convenient for them to appear in the real world."
"If you want to learn the magic of the next Kamar-Taj, it's easy. Just defeat him.
Don't worry, he's not as good as me, he's just like an ordinary special forces soldier... probably."
"Try it!"
The little rascal took a deep breath and made a decision silently.
Aaron smiled playfully and made room for the fighting between Rogue and the Shadow Ninja.
Noisy!
The little rascal spread out his palms, and an orange-red energy whip gathered into shape.
The shadow ninja was much more straightforward and simply pulled out a samurai sword from behind him.
"let's start!"
Following Aaron's order, Little Naughty took the lead in attacking, and the orange-red energy whip whizzed over.
The shadow ninja did not dodge or evade, but instead swung his samurai sword to meet the attack.
Snapped!
Orange-red sparks flashed, and the energy whip wrapped around the katana.
The little rascal decisively swung out another energy whip and attacked the side of the shadow ninja.
We won, this is a sure win!
The naughty boy thought to himself, a smile unconsciously appearing on the corner of his mouth.
However, just when she thought victory was in her grasp, the black shadow ninja gave up the long sword and did a backflip to avoid the incoming whip.
After stabilizing his body, the black shadow ninja quickly rushed towards the little rascal.
"Don't even think about it." The little rascal snorted coldly, and the two long whips in his hands were like dancing lightning, with whistling wind sounds, constantly rolling towards the black shadow ninja.
Seeing that the situation was unfavorable, the black shadow ninja became more cautious.
I saw him moving quickly on the ground with his feet moving fast, and he was getting closer to the little naughty boy while twisting and turning.
Then he suddenly leaped up, crossed his arms, and his fingertips flashed with cold light.
puff!
At the moment he swung his arms, two orange-red whips attacked from both sides, hitting the black shadow ninja accurately and turning him into a ball of smoke.
"This...should be considered a win!"
"Hmm..." Aaron touched his chin, seeming to be hesitating about how to answer.
The little rascal glared at him with some displeasure, "You said that as long as I can defeat him, I can learn the next magic. You don't keep your word, do you?"
"Okay!" Aaron smiled carefreely, "Since you performed pretty well just now."
"Just good?" Little Naughty asked unconvincedly, "You said that the Black Shadow Ninja is just equivalent to an ordinary special forces soldier, but ordinary special forces soldiers can't jump more than a few meters high!"
"The special forces soldiers are not so fragile that they can be scattered by your two whips.
What I mean is that the overall strength of the Black Shadow Ninja is equivalent to that of a special forces soldier, but it doesn't mean that he is a special forces soldier, do you understand?"
"I see." The little rascal was speechless. Which special forces soldier would focus all his attributes on agility?
"What magic should I learn next?"
"Before you learn magic, clean up the floor first."
"Ah?" The little rascal looked at the ground in confusion, and then swallowed his saliva involuntarily.
A dozen darts flashing with cold light were stuck at her feet, almost surrounding her.
"What time is this?"
"Before your whip hits the Black Ninja..." Aaron gave the little rascal a mysterious smile, "you will be dead."
The little naughty boy's expression darkened, and he felt mixed emotions.
She did win, but it seemed like she lost completely.
"No, that doesn't count. I..." Little Naughty hesitated, "I won't learn the next magic until I can really beat the Black Shadow Ninja."
“That won’t do. I am Gaius, a man who values credibility, and I must keep my word.
But your attitude still makes me very happy. "
"But..."
"Okay, don't be so serious. This kind of thing is actually not important at all, right?" Aaron shook his head with amusement, "The next magic I'll learn is the Ring of Raggadoor!"
As Aaron spoke, he raised his hands and began to draw in the air. An orange-red magic circle slowly took shape.
“Remember it, this pattern is the magic circle of the Ring of Raggadoor.
Just follow the order I just described to guide your own magic power and draw the magic circle.
When you have nothing to do, you can draw on paper to improve your proficiency, but don’t let others see you.”
The little rascal nodded hurriedly, and then asked: "When will this magic be considered learned?"
Aaron simply clenched his fist, and an orange-red magic circle instantly took shape in front of his fist.
"Just like this, being able to summon it at any time is considered passing."
"Oh!"
"It's almost time." Aaron sat down at the head of the long table. "The other relatives should be here soon."
As soon as the words fell, a series of illusory figures appeared on the chairs in front of the long table and quickly revealed their true faces.
"A new face!" Banner greeted in a friendly manner, "Are there any new people here?"
"Um... hello, Dr. Banner." The little rascal said stiffly. Although he knew that there was an Avenger who was also Aaron's follower, he couldn't help but get excited when he saw it with his own eyes.
A superhero! It's quite attractive to girls her age.
"Okay, pick a chair and sit down!" Aaron said with a smile, "And by the way, introduce yourself to everyone."
Under everyone's gaze, the little rascal awkwardly sat on the first chair on Aaron's left.
"My name is Anna Marie, you can call me Little Naughty."
"That's it... all?" Naga joked, "Little sister! Don't be nervous. Is there anything you forgot to say?"
Little Naughty hesitated for a moment, "I am a mutant, and my mutant ability is to absorb the abilities or life force of the people I touch."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone looked at Buggy.
"Why are you looking at me? She's not on the Sentinel Special Service's wanted list." Bucky said speechlessly, "Either her ability hasn't been exposed, or she hasn't used it to do anything bad."
"I'm in the Mutant School, and I'm considered a student of Professor Charles Xavier." Rogue explained weakly.
"That's not surprising." Bucky shrugged. "The mutants at Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters are protected by Charles. No one dares to take action openly."
"That's true, but having said that, this ability is really dangerous." Banner looked at the little rascal with some sympathy, "Can you control it?"
"I couldn't do it before, but now I can do it."
Banner immediately grasped the key point, as if he understood why this little girl became Aaron's follower.
I guess it was another fair trade just like his.
"Little sister." Naga smiled and couldn't help reminding her again, "You haven't finished introducing yourself yet? For example, which path are you from? What sequence are you at now?"
"What pathway? What sequence?"
"God's Way!" Naga said bluntly, but soon reacted, "Didn't the master give you the potion?"
The little rascal blinked blankly and turned to look at Aaron, "What potion?"
“A magical potion that can allow a mortal to ascend to godhood step by step.
From sequence nine to sequence eight are low sequences, sequence seven to sequence five are middle sequences, sequence four and sequence three are demigods, sequence two and sequence one are angels, and sequence zero is a true god.
However, each stage of the potion takes time to digest, and it becomes more difficult as time goes by. It takes a long time to become a god, possibly hundreds or even thousands of years.
Moreover, among my followers, only Yak, Ramon and Naga have the opportunity to become gods. Unless the others have made great achievements, I will only allow them to advance to the level of angels at most.
But even angels have long lives and great powers, so life is hopeful.”
"But I have nothing." The little rascal felt inexplicably aggrieved.
She didn't particularly care about life span and authority, but there were eleven followers present, and she was the only one who didn't have the path to God. Wasn't this discriminatory treatment too obvious?
"I have nothing either." Slytherin said with a cough, comforting the little rascal's hurt mood a little.
"Hypocritical." Lorelai snorted. "Friendly reminder, he doesn't have the path to godhood because he doesn't need it. He can become a god on his own, just like our respected master."
"No one will think you are dumb if you don't speak." Aaron said with a smile.
"I just don't want this little girl to be deceived." Lorelai rolled her eyes at him and said meaningfully, "A wounded woman is not that easy to appease."
"No need to coax." Slytherin looked at her with a little pride, "After all, someone has already signed the contract!"
Lorelai immediately calmed down.
The indenture has been signed, so there is no way I can be dishonest.
"Don't feel wronged." Aaron looked at Little Naughty and said, "I didn't give you the path of God because you are not suitable for this path. It is too long and too hard.
Just being a mutant has brought about a revolutionary change in your life. If it weren't for me, you might not have been able to hold on at any time, and the best outcome for you would be to die alone.
Giving you another divine path would be a despicable waste, because you simply don't have the time, energy, or patience to digest the potion.
That’s why I made other arrangements for you. You may not be as powerful as them in the future, but your status and position will not be lower than theirs.”
The little rascal burst into laughter and said, "Are you serious?"
"Of course it's true. The Gaius family attaches great importance to credibility. They stick to their words." Aaron said seriously, then looked at everyone, "Let me solemnly introduce to you, Anna Marie, my dependent and also my student."
"Student?" Naga was slightly stunned. "Master, you mean... you taught her magic?"
"Obviously," Ramon interjected, smiling and nodding at the little rascal.
The master's apprentice, or to be more precise, the master's first apprentice.
Moreover, he is a dependent who has signed a contract. He is valued more than any of them and is definitely worth making friends with.
"I plan to train her to be my agent. An agent is..."
Aaron spent several minutes explaining the concept of agency in great detail.
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment, and their eyes towards the little naughty boy changed.
Absorb magic power, contain magic power, consume magic power and use magic...
An artificial magician! The mutant ability can actually be used in this way. Compared with these followers, the little rascal seems to be the real high-level tool man.
No wonder Aaron values her so much, the price-performance ratio is really high!
"Okay, I've finished introducing everything.
We can start the next item of the meeting, reporting on our respective sequences." Aaron turned his head and looked at Yake, "Let's start with you!"
"Yes, Master." Yake nodded solemnly, "Yake Moens, Fortune Teller Path Sequence 7, Magician."
"Ramon Lancelot, Thief's Path Sequence 7, Decryption Scholar."
"Naga Shatir, Assassin Path Sequence 7, Witch."
"Frank Custer, Arbitrator Path Sequence 7, Interrogator."
"Bruce Banner, Monster Path Sequence 7, Lucky Man."
"Jane Volturi, Path of Apothecary, Sequence 6, Potions Professor."
"James Barnes, Warrior Path Sequence 8, Fighter."
"Ger, the eighth sequence of the Chanter's Path, the Prayer of Light."
"Lorelai, Farmer Path Sequence 8, Pharmacist."
Aaron listened to the reports from these followers, his heart remaining calm.
It is easier to be promoted to a low-sequence level, but after reaching the middle-sequence level, the speed at which potions are digested will slow down a lot. Perhaps by the next meeting, only Buggy, Gir, and Lorelai will be likely to be promoted, while the others will most likely remain unchanged.
"Not bad. Next, let me report on our respective situations during this period.
Slytherin, let's start with you!"
“There has been no change on Bohat Star at the moment. The Universal Capsule Company has gotten on the right track, and the pace of farm and ranch expansion has also slowed down.
But the demand for high-grade fantasy ingredients is still very high, you... you know what I mean."
Yes, of course I understand.
Aaron secretly complained that if he wanted to upgrade his gourmet cells, he would have to keep eating delicious food, and the higher the capture level, the better.
However, such dreamy ingredients are not so easy to refresh. The probability may be less than one in a million. Even if you drink a bottle of Felicity Potion before refreshing, it may not be possible to refresh it.
Fortunately, the dream ingredients he had purchased in the past would be recorded in the food atlas, and the dream ingredients in the food atlas could be purchased continuously, which gave him a way to consume. Otherwise, he would have no idea how to spend the money.
However, the gem meat, rainbow fruit, and puffer whale, which were considered extremely delicious foods in the past, have only a very limited effect on improving his physical fitness, which is now over 80 in his capture level.
"I'll do my best!" Aaron forced a smile, "Next one."
"Master." Gel raised his hand weakly, "I have almost compiled the code you need, and it will be published before the next meeting."
"What code?" asked the little rascal curiously.
"It's like the Bible." Banner explained, "Don't you think it's a bit shabby that we are the only believers of the Master, or the God of Contract?"
