Chapter 354: “The Hulkbuster Suit”
Walking towards The Ancient Ones private bookshelf, Jerry carefully selected a book titled The Book of Cagliostro.
As he read the introduction, he discovered it was a book dedicated to the study of time magic, including methods of absorbing energy from the dark dimension.
No wonder The Ancient One thought it was safe for me to read these books.
Jerry understood the dangers associated with time magic, as it could create time branches in the world.
However, he possessed some knowledge and experience with time magic and Time Turner, making him less susceptible to its risks.
Jerry wasnt concerned about the absorption of dark dimension energy and attracting Dormammus attention.
Since he used his magic power to release magic, he wouldnt draw energy from the dark dimension.
Setting down The Book of Cagliostro, Jerry surveyed the other books on the shelf.
One caught his eye, which focused on the study of the soul.
Another was powerful magic related to altering the laws by traveling through the past and future using runes.
After a brief read, Jerry recognized the potency of these magical texts. Misuse of such knowledge could bring disaster to the world.
He also realized that many of these magical concepts were quite esoteric and challenging to comprehend fully.
After careful consideration, Jerry decided to choose the book about souls.
Soul magic had always fascinated him, and he had some prior knowledge in related areas, such as sealing, soul-sucking, and Horcrux creation.
His selection of the book was based on the idea that when the Time Turner was unavailable, practicing soul-related magic could help him cultivate and study more efficiently.
He could meditate with his physical body while his soul ventured out to read books and learn magic, effectively accomplishing two tasks simultaneously.
After retrieving the book, Jerry also collected around 70 to 80 additional magic books explaining soul-related topics from the normal book area on the inner and outer floors.
He registered them and then used a portal to transport them to his villa in New York.
Upon returning to his villa, Jerry immediately opened the Mirror Dimensiona magic he had learned after studying the Hungarian Mirror Trap.
With his foundation in these mirror-related magics, he quickly cracked and researched the Mirror Trap magic that could be activated using his magic power.
As Jerry delved deeper into the study of magic, he discovered that many magical principles exhibited similarities.
With some contemplation, he could understand the differences and make modifications that wouldnt compromise the desired effects.
While many Kamar Taj mages learned magic by creating magic circles based on incantations to release fixed energy, Jerry understood why he could not only successfully release magic but also make adjustments to it.
It allowed him to practice experimental magic without affecting the outside world while still providing the ability to observe events taking place outside the mirror.
Consequently, he rarely practiced magic within the suitcase, as it posed potential risks.
Although he had placed Muggle Repelling Spell and Disillusionment on the suitcase, a powerful wizard could break the charms and seize the suitcase.
This presented a vulnerability. He wouldnt be aware if the suitcase had been taken while he was inside.
Furthermore, it would be problematic if he were attacked upon exiting the suitcase.
However, with the Mirror Trap, Jerry found a perfect solution.
He could stand within the Mirror Trap, observing the real space while remaining completely undetectable. In addition, he discovered that the Mirror Trap and the portal complemented each other perfectly.
From the Mirror Trap, he could observe events in real space without being noticed.
By opening a small portal, he could reach into the real space from the Mirror Trap, discreetly pulling objects or even people into the Mirror Trap without their knowledge.
This newfound synergy between the Mirror Trap and the portal expanded Jerrys capabilities and gave him greater flexibility in his magical endeavors.
Or he could suddenly open a small portal behind an enemy, launching punches, kicks, or even casting spells directly from the Mirror Trap.
The enemy would find it difficult to escape and could only react passively. It was an ideal combination for theft, abduction, and covert assassinations.
Unless the opponent possessed proficiency in space magic or had absolute power to break the Mirror Trap forcefully, these two magics alone made him nearly invincible.
Sitting on the bed within the Mirror Trap, Jerry planned to conduct experiments with several Kamar Taj magics he had recently studied, then spend some time studying and finally proceed with his regular daily meditation practice.
However, before he began his magical experiments, he suddenly remembered something he needed Tonys help with.
He picked up the magic mirror hanging from his waist, infused it with magic power, and established a connection with the mirror he had previously given to Tony.
Meanwhile, at the Stark Tower.Discover new chapters at
Tony and Dr. Banner worked together on a colossal steel armor in the research base.
The frame of this armor differed significantly from Tonys usual designsit was thicker, stronger, and nearly five times larger.
Tony, you should incorporate an extremely powerful pile driver at the arm position of the battle suit. Otherwise, with a normal fist attack, I fear it wont be able to inflict any damage on the Hulk.
Well, maybe I should add an even more potent energy cannon. Tony jokingly remarked as he swiftly adjusted the virtual projection design before him.
Dr. Banner nodded, agreeing with Tonys suggestion, I think thats a good idea.
Just as Tony found some of Dr. Banners comments a bit excessive, the doorbell of the research room unexpectedly rang.
As Tony looked at the photo of young Jerry, memories flooded back, and he recalled everything that had happened. So, it was him! No wonder the robbers met such a miserable fate back then.
Reflecting on their shared history, Tony realized he had many connections to wizards and owed them quite a lot.
Five days later, at the villa.
Aisha, even though its summer vacation, you cant spend the whole day outside. You still need to set aside time to review your homework! Jerry shook his head helplessly, looking at her, who was lounging on the sofa with her feet up.
During this time, she earned the nickname Mahjong Girl and became a somewhat famous hero in New York.
So far, her true identity remained a secret, except for Anne and Susan, whom she had confided in.
But why was Aishas identity kept so well hidden? Well, it wasnt solely due to her carefulness.
I know, Jerry. My math score in the final exam was in the top fifteen of the class! Aisha proudly declared.
Thats good progress, but you must still study hard. Jerry wanted to point out that only seventeen students were in her class, but since she wasnt the last, he found it worth encouraging.
Aisha, in recognition of your excellent final grades, heres a gift for you!
A gift? Aisha perked up upon hearing about a gift, immediately abandoning her summer magic battle plan on the sofa.
Jerry took out a box from his pocket and handed it to her, I came across this by chance while passing by a grocery store. The shopkeeper lied to me, saying it was a magical crown that Carmen the Great Sorcerer left. Supposedly, wearing it would enhance ones wisdom. Of course, I dont believe that.
However, seeing that it looked beautiful and wasnt expensive, Jerry couldnt resist buying it.
Carmen the Great Sorcerer? Elsas eyes widened as she received the box.
Jerry smiled and continued, We share the same last name. I suspect the shopkeeper made it up after learning my name. What do you think, Aisha?
Of course, there are countless magicians in the world. Elsa hurriedly laughed along, careful not to reveal her true thoughts.
Now, on the surface, she no longer appeared obsessed with magic. She couldnt allow others to associate the superhero Mahjong Girl with her true identity.
The criminals she dealt with were dangerous individuals, and it would be risky if her true identity was revealed and endangered her brother and father.
However, she couldnt contain her excitement even amidst the laughter and pretending. She quickly opened the box and beheld the magic crown inside.
Wow, its so beautiful! Aisha gasped in awe.
The Ravenclaw crown had the shape of an eagle spreading its wings. The eagles head formed the centerpiece of the crown, and on its chest was a blue magic gem the size of a dragons eye.
Beneath the large gem were two smaller, identical gems hanging down. The wing-shaped crown was crafted from a magic metal resembling platinum, and each wing was adorned with dazzling diamonds.
Even if the magical properties claimed by the crown were disregarded, its sheer beauty made it an invaluable treasure.
The gems and diamonds are fake, but they look just like the real thing. Do you like it? Jerry asked playfully.
Aisha carefully set the crown aside and threw herself into Jerrys arms. Brother, youre so kind!
Isnt It Jerry anymore? Now its brother? Jerry teased, letting go of Aisha.
Ill go to my room now. She picked up the crown and hurried off to her room.
She wanted to consult to verify if the crown was a magic item that Carmen the Great Sorcerer left.
At that moment, footsteps could be heard at the door. It was Haas and BElle returning from their grocery shopping trip.
Jerry glanced at the time and realized it was already ten in the morning. They should be here soon.
Dad, I need to discuss something with you. Haas hadnt even had a chance to change his slippers when he heard Jerrys voice.
Just a moment, son. Let me put the groceries in the refrigerator, and Ill be right over, Haas replied, setting the groceries aside temporarily.
Jerry, what did you want to discuss? Haas asked, settling on the sofa opposite Jerry, his protruding belly stretching out comfortably.
Haas attached great importance to his sons decision to initiate a discussion, as it was rare for Jerry to take the initiative.
Jerry smiled and began to explain slowly, Well, you see, Ive been accepted into Columbia University in Manhattan, and I thought it would be a good idea to utilize the summer vacation to gain some work experience, exercise, and earn some pocket money along the way.
Working during summer vacation? Jerry, it isnt necessary. Youre already doing great and should be able to relax during the break. Besides, were not short on money.
Ive been promoted to branch director, and if you need anything, I can provide it. I can buy you whatever you want or give you the money. Haas replied, refusing Jerrys idea.
Concerned about Jerrys age and believing he should have a carefree summer vacation, Haas didnt see the need for his son to work.
Dad, did you say youve been promoted to the branch director? Jerry interrupted, surprised by Haas response.
Haas proudly stroked the little beard he had purposely grown and responded, Yes, I just got the promotion. Im now the director of the Queens District Bureau. I planned to share the good news with you during lunch.
Is this S.H.I.E.L.D.s doing? Jerry congratulated him with a smile while inwardly speculating.
Jerry suspected this sudden promotion, which leaped across ranks, must have had some push from behind the scenes.
After all, Haas had been a sheriff for many years without much progress, primarily due to his lack of connections.
Regardless, this promotion is a positive development.
As a bureau director, Haas would spend most of his time in the office, avoiding fieldwork and significantly reducing risk.
Jerry had also planned to seek assistance from Vice President Hastings to help improve Haas rank in the police station.
Okay, lets not change the subject. Jerry, I still dont agree with you about taking a summer job during your vacation. Lets discuss it further when you start college. Haas firmly expressed his opposition to Jerrys summer work plan.
Just then, the doorbell rang unexpectedly.
Perfect timing! Jerrys face lit up with a smile as he heard the doorbell.
