80. The First Time Casting Magic.

Seeing Alex was very interested, John immediately began to take action.

John first dived into the pile of books on the floor, searching for something. Soon, he pulled out a very worn piece of parchment. He then went to the shelf and grabbed a few candles.

Everyone watched John hustle back and forth silently. Although Alex and the others knew John was preparing the necessary items for the sacrificial magic, none of them understood magic, so they couldn't help and just waited quietly.

"Alex, do you think magic is something everyone can learn?" Pietro asked in a low voice, clearly very interested himself.

"Probably. If it's based on black magic or cult rules, then even an ordinary person with no knowledge could follow the steps to cast the corresponding magic. This is also the best way demons use to entice followers," Alex replied calmly.

"There are demons in this world too!" Pietro's eyes widened. He had always thought fairy tales were fake, and that angels and demons were just made-up concepts.

"Actually, many universes have demons. Don't forget that legends and myths generally have some basis in reality. Since there are ancient gods here, why wouldn't there be the gods worshipped by Earth people?" Alex shrugged. In terms of 'gods,' the Marvel Universe and the DC Universe aren't that different.

Both multiverses have all kinds of gods. Whether it's the Olympian gods or the Asgardian gods, or even various deities, angels, and demons, they all exist. The difference is in their levels of power.

"But in my universe, there are none of these things. If gods really existed, why didn't they appear to save a world plunged into despair?" Pietro sighed softly.

"Yours is an exception," Alex didn't explain further.

Pietro's universe is a materialistic one. There are no gods, and even heaven and hell don't exist. Galactus, who should be a cosmic entity, doesn't even have basic cosmic energy and has become just an enormous 'ordinary alien.'

Listening to John, Alex compared the steps on the parchment and found that it was indeed a harmless sacrificial spell, as John had said. However, stealing energy from other dimensions was no easy task. Any slight mistake could alert the beings there, especially when dealing with hellish energy.

Alex also worried that John might have ulterior motives. After all, this was a sacrificial spell, and he and his friends were completely ignorant about it. If John tricked them and sacrificed them instead, Alex would be in big trouble.

To be safe, cautious Alex silently communicated with Miss Minutes. If anything happened, she would open a portal immediately. Alex didn't believe anyone could chase him across universes without special means.

With this in mind, Alex slowly walked to the center of the altar, holding the parchment in front of him and began to recite the ever-changing text softly.

In the dark and damp underworld, the air reeked of stench. Under the watchful eyes of vampiric servants, a figure in a black robe and a bizarre bird-beak mask chanted forbidden knowledge inscribed in blood.

The scene was so horrifying that even in a world full of superheroes, it was shocking. Pietro thought this scene could serve as the poster for a horror movie. He wanted to take a picture with his phone but refrained from doing so to avoid disturbing Alex.

Kara, on the other hand, didn't seem afraid. She appeared deeply curious about the mystical atmosphere and Alex's actions.

Although the parchment was marked in English, what Alex recited wasn't English or any known language. It was a nonsensical, unfathomable language. Alex wondered how he could speak it so fluently—it felt natural once he saw the text.

Under everyone's gaze, Alex finally finished reciting the entire text on the parchment.

At that moment, everyone held their breath—
