" Sorcerer Supreme!"
Richard arrived at the main hall, put down the Silver-White Box, clasped his hands together, and respectfully bowed to Ancient One.
"Sit down," Ancient One said with a smile and a wave of her hand.
Richard bowed again before sitting down.
" Your Sorcerer Supreme, during my journey across realms, my Mana has completely transformed into red."
As he spoke, Richard extended his right hand, conjuring a wisp of crimson Mana.
"Sharp, bloody..." The Ancient One sensed it, then gave Richard a deep look. "It seems your journey this time has been quite bloody..."
Richard nodded silently.
The Ancient One solemnly advised, "For the next period of time, you need to calm your mind and avoid letting the Mana subtly influence your character."
"Yes, Your Sorcerer Supreme," Richard replied with gratitude.
Even if Ancient One hadn't said anything, he already had this plan.
Back in the Dormitory.
Richard had just taken off his Combat Mage suit when the door was suddenly pushed open with a bang.
" Richard!" Christine Palmer beamed and leaped towards him.
"Watch out!" Richard quickly dropped his clothes, opened his arms, and hugged his girlfriend.
"Honey, I've mastered it!" Christine smiled broadly, clearly very happy.
"Huh?" He was a little confused by his girlfriend's nonsensical statement.
"Look!" Christine didn't waste any words, extending her slender index finger and gently tapping it in the air.
A tiny, golden-red spark flashed and disappeared.
"I sensed Dimensional Energy!" Christine looked at Richard with excited, gray-blue eyes, like a kindergarten child waiting for praise from its teacher.
Richard, of course, wouldn't disappoint his girlfriend. He gave her a quick kiss on her rosy cheek and praised her generously, "My Clea is amazing!"
"No wonder he's a top student! He understands things instantly and can apply what he's learned to other situations!"
"Hehe~" Christine stretched out her slender arms and wrapped them around Richard's strong waist. She looked up at her boyfriend with her watery eyes, "I missed you, Richard..."
Richard cupped the girl's beautiful, delicate face in his hands and said affectionately, "I missed you too..."
A man and a woman gazed at each other silently, their eyes growing increasingly intense.
Richard's breathing grew heavier, and Christine's eyes were filled with seductive allure...
In an instant, their passion ignited, and the two locked in a passionate embrace.
Before long, one piece of men's clothing and one piece of women's clothing lay scattered on the ground, their garments intertwined.
Heavy breathing and cat-like moans echoed from the small Dormitory...
In the afternoon, at the Seaside Villa in Malibu.
Richard, carrying Silver-White Box, went straight into Tony's studio through the door.
Out of politeness, he did not choose to use magic, but instead called out Tony's name loudly.
" Tony! Tony!"
At that moment, Tony Stark was wearing earplugs and working on the design of the new Mark Armor, so he didn't hear Richard's shout.
Jarvis had no choice but to call out, "Sir, Richard has arrived!"
"Hmm, really?" Tony took off his earplugs and immediately heard Richard's voice.
"Hey Richard, come here!"
Richard rushed towards the sound.
Jarvis's mature, sexy middle-aged voice said, " Richard, would you like some coffee?"
"Thank you, Jarvis." Richard raised his hand in greeting, took two more steps, then suddenly stopped, turned around, and asked.
"Hey Jarvis, do you want a wife? Just say the word and I'll bring her to you right away!"
Jarvis: "???"
Richard's sudden remark almost caused Jarvis's CPU to overheat and burn out...
" Richard, I am artificial intelligence, I cannot... I at least... I..."
Jarvis's usually steady voice became disordered.
"Who wants a wife? Hey Richard, what are you talking about with Jarvis?"
Tony Stark stepped out of the equipment room and asked curiously.
The honest Jarvis replied directly, "Sir, Richard just asked me if I wanted a wife. I am artificial intelligence, so I shouldn't need a spouse."
Tony raised an eyebrow and suddenly said, "Yes, why not!"
" Jarvis, I've been wanting to get you a female assistant for a long time!"
After saying that, he looked at Richard curiously, and then his gaze quickly shifted to the Silver-White Box Richard was carrying.
"Hey Richard, you're here! What gift did you bring?"
As he spoke, he reached out to take it.
"Hey~ hey~ hey~ this isn't a gift!"
Richard quickly lifted the suitcase, clearing Tony's hand, and said irritably, "How can you steal a guest's things like that, Tony Stark!"
"What a pity!" Tony shrugged, smiled dismissively, and then asked, "By the way, what's this about Jarvis's wife?"
"Hehe!" Richard chuckled, placed the Silver-White Box on the table, opened it, and took out a hard drive.
Tony's eyes lit up when he saw the hard drive, which was small inside the box but became much larger after being taken out.
"Wow! I'm more interested in your suitcase than Jarvis's wife!"
"Phase folding?"
"Or is it space compression?"
Richard was taken aback, then gave him a thumbs up in admiration. "No wonder it's Tony Stark!"
"This is one of the spoils of this trip: Space Compression Technology!"
As he spoke, he proudly patted the suitcase and boasted, "The things inside are all the spoils of my trip!"
Tony, seeing an opportunity, rubbed his hands together and said, "Let's make a deal, Richard. I'll trade 5% of Stark Industries for your Space Compression Technology, how about it?"
Richard gave him a disdainful look and retorted, "Come on, Tony, Pepper is in charge of Stark Industries now. Your words have no effect whatsoever..."
Tony looked slightly embarrassed, then puffed out his chest and forced a smile, saying, "How is it useless? Pepper never argues with what I say!"
Richard shrugged, looking on with amusement, and added fuel to the fire, "Why don't you try making a call..."
"Ahem!" Tony coughed lightly, quickly changing the subject. "Well, let's talk about Jarvis's wife."
Jarvis said with a hint of grievance, "Sir, I am artificial intelligence, I don't need a spouse..."
Richard and Tony ignored him.
"Look at this..."
Richard handed the hard drive containing the information about the female AI from the Red Mountain Group to Tony.
"The data here comes from an AI whose underlying logic is set to be female..."
"Well, its functional strength can't compare to Jarvis's..."
Tony took the hard drive, looked through it for a moment, and said, "It's okay, I can improve upon it."
" Jarvis, prepare a spare server and data reading equipment..."
Jarvis immediately replied, "Yes, sir."
Richard crossed his arms and, upon hearing Jarvis's reaction, subtly nudged Tony's arm.
"Hey Tony, can you hear that?"
Tony rubbed his chin and nodded.
Jarvis seems a little impatient!
The two men exchanged a glance, revealing a somewhat lewd smile...
