This button was created by Lucas, mimicking the spider totem he made for Gwen, using quantum technology.
As soon as it's pressed, Lucas can sense it, know the coordinates, and open a portal to provide support.
However, unlike the spider totem, which was split into two and passively triggered by sensing danger, this one is actively triggered.
In other words, if the button's holder is instantly killed and doesn't have time to press it, Lucas won't know, let alone be able to rescue them.
"How did you do that? Can you really arrive just by pressing it, Lucas?" Erin asked curiously.
She was undoubtedly a good mouthpiece, asking Matt's question for him.
Lucas's support speed was crucial to his safety and couldn't be taken lightly.
Lucas smiled slightly, not directly answering Erin's question, but instead said, "Erin, it's so late, shouldn't you be going home?"
As he finished speaking, sparks flickered in front of him, and a portal leading to Erin's bedroom slowly formed.
"Wow!"
Erin exclaimed again, "Lucas, can you teach me?"
"You want to learn?" Lucas asked.
"Yes." Erin nodded.
"No, go back to sleep." Lucas refused, then burst into laughter as he saw Erin's face instantly fall.
If one learns Kamar-Taj's magic, they become a person of Kamar-Taj, destined to fight against the mystic side's invasion of reality.
It was very dangerous.
Erin had a happy family, there was no need for her to join Kamar-Taj.
The sorcerers of Kamar-Taj were basically orphans or those who were alone.
The former included Lucas and Mordo. The latter included Tony, and the future Stephen Strange.
"Erin, you go back first. Today's training is over."
Matt, who was beside them, nodded thoughtfully and also told Erin to go back first.
Although he couldn't see, he could sense that Lucas had just opened a door to another space. With this ability, Lucas could indeed provide him with support at any time.
"Lucas, you said you became a god. What's that about?" Matt asked curiously.
Hearing Matt's words, Erin stopped her reluctant steps, wanting to hear more of these extraordinary stories.
"Literal meaning." Lucas said calmly.
The panel rated him as [God], so he had indeed become a god.
"Hmph!" Erin pouted, very dissatisfied with this answer.
Lucas glanced at Erin and snapped his fingers. The portal quickly moved, teleporting Erin, who was standing still, ready to continue eavesdropping, back to her room.
Matt was silent, he felt that Lucas's words actually held a deeper meaning. Literal meaning meant that Lucas could basically do everything that legendary gods could do.
"Lucas, you send me back too. You know the address." Matt said.
He also wanted to experience the feeling of travelling through a portal.
Snap!
With a snap of fingers, a portal also appeared in front of Matt.
Matt walked straight in. Although he couldn't see, the smell on the other side of the portal was completely different from the environment here. For Matt, identifying directions was naturally not a problem.
Before the portal closed, Matt looked back at Lucas thoughtfully. He 'saw' Lucas smile at him, and he smiled back.
The conflict between Matt and Lucas stemmed from how to deal with Kingpin.
Matt believed that he should be judged by law.
Lucas, on the other hand, believed that he should be killed directly, to end it once and for all.
Matt knew that, purely from this matter, Lucas might have been right. But if a person ignored the rules, the hero would become a new villain.
Now he understood that Lucas had always been following rules. It was just that they followed different rules.
Gwen, who had been silent, asked curiously, "Lucas, is there a story between you and Matt?"
"My story with Matt? That's a long story."
Lucas gently held Gwen, and space shifted, bringing them to an unnamed airspace.
He gestured for Gwen to sit on a cloud, watching the sunset and slowly recounted his story with Matt.
Midway through the story, a consciousness arrived to listen in.
Ancient One?
Did she also like listening to stories?
It wasn't surprising. Several times when he went to her, she was watching movies.
— — —
Asgard.
A continent floating in the deep space of the Universe.
Odin, a king on the verge of death, instructed his guard, "Midgard's protective barrier has been opened. The Sorcerer Supreme has returned. Send the invitation, inviting her to Thor's coronation ceremony."
"Yes."
After a moment of thought, Odin instructed another guard, "Also, call Thor. I have something else to tell him and Loki. Have them both come together."
"Yes."
Odin's twilight was approaching, his divine body could no longer bear the ever-increasing power. He had reached the time to consider his succession.
But one eldest daughter and two sons were not suitable heirs.
His eldest daughter, Hela, the Goddess of Death, was intelligent and brave, but her desire for conquest was too strong. Though Asgard was vast, a warlike nature would lead to its demise. This was the lesson Odin learned when he conquered the Nine Realms.
After conquering the Nine Realms, Hela was personally sealed by Odin for rebellion and for slaughtering the Valkyrie who were sent to quell the rebellion and assemble an army.
A thousand years of imprisonment had long since eroded Hela's filial affection for her father.
His eldest son, Thor, was valiant and skilled in battle, and held high prestige in Asgard. Almost everyone supported him to inherit the throne.
But he also had some problems. He was impulsive, didn't like to think, and was easily deceived.
Moreover, although Thor had experienced countless battles, big and small, the intensity of the rebellion-quelling battles was ultimately not as great as the conquest battles.
By the time he returns to Valhalla, and Hela is freed, Thor will likely not be Hela's match. Thor will need some time for the Odinforce within him to awaken and grow before he can surpass Hela.
As for his second son, Loki, he was an adopted son, the son of Frost Giant King Laufey, so there was no need to mention him.
"Alas."
Odin sighed deeply.
He suddenly had a feeling that Asgard was doomed.
He hoped that the forces friendly with Asgard would lend a hand when that time came. At the very least, they shouldn't add insult to injury.
...
Nepal, Kamar-Taj.
The Ancient One received the Asgardian messenger and the invitation.
"The coronation ceremony of Thor Odinson? Is the Asgardian King's authority being transferred?" The Ancient One murmured to herself.
Asgard was the nominal ruler of the Nine Realms, protecting them from external threats. A change in Asgard's King was undoubtedly a major event for the Nine Realms.
Earth, or Midgard, was also one of the Nine Realms.
'Bring Lucas along. When he succeeds as Sorcerer Supreme, he will inevitably deal with the Asgardian King.'
While thinking, the Ancient One connected mentally to Lucas's location.
At this time, Lucas was telling Gwen his story with Matt. Sensing the Ancient One's arrival, he made no reaction.
No manners at all.
He didn't even greet his teacher when she arrived.
