The Death Knell

It was midnight in the United States, so all the good restaurants were closed, but this was not a big problem. Su Ming took the female Thor and flew across the Pacific Ocean and went straight to the imperial capital.

China is developing very well now, and there are not as many troubles as the United States.

If it were anyone else, such a high-profile flight from high altitude would have caused trouble, but who said it was the death knell flying in?

As Kama Taj has always been a friendly force to the Divine Spear Bureau, the Supreme Mage still has some face.

Midnight in New York time is noon in the imperial capital. Su Ming took Daisy to the private restaurant where he and Zheng Xian had roast duck.

It's Mutant Roast Duck, the one located in the alley.

Because fire mutants have very strong control over flames, the duck they make tastes very good. Su Ming often asked Modu or Xiao Wang to come here to buy it.

Conventional high-end restaurants have limited appeal for a curious baby like Daisy, and you have to learn basic rules to play small tricks. She is now very curious about the world of super powers, so it is natural to take her to a high-end place that ordinary people will never have the opportunity to go to. 'Dining room.

I saw the old shopkeeper wearing a mandarin jacket in the kitchen holding the iron hook for hanging the roast duck in one hand, and spraying a special flame in the other hand to heat it from the cellular level. The white duck skin became red and shiny visibly to the naked eye, exuding a seductive smell. The fragrance of people permeates the small courtyard.

Daisy swallowed secretly, her chest rising and falling.

"Are these mutants?" She sat at the Eight Immortals table and asked in a low voice opposite Deathstroke. He had already changed his armor and was dressed very casually: "Why do I feel that they are different from the mutants in the United States?"

"It's different mentally. No one will persecute them here. They just need to register on time. If you want to do business, you can do business. If you want to go to work, you can go to work." Su Ming picked up the bowl on the table. He took a sip of tea and said, "In this country, mutants are not discriminated against. On the contrary, they are sometimes treated as 'gods'."

In fact, this relied on the idea given to Zheng Xian by Su Ming decades ago, formulating a moderate control policy of using mutants to control mutants. The mutant leader on the Chinese side was still working at the Divine Spear Bureau to receive his salary.

The two slogans of fighting for equality across the ocean have no allure for mutants who have achieved equal social status. Only some idiot mutants from a certain port will go to the United States to participate in those messy things, thinking that everyone is drunk and they are alone. Like waking up.

What good will happen if you go to the United States?

If it falls into the hands of Charles, it is equivalent to being under house arrest, and if it falls into the hands of Eric, it is equivalent to cannon fodder, but that is considered a good thing. If caught by the military, it will probably become experimental material for the development of sentinel robots. .

Daisy, who was just a graduate student before, didn't know what Deathstroke was thinking. She was playing with the petals floating in the tea bowl with the lid: "Sure enough, peace is the best. The President of the United States is a fool. Mutants are not what the media says they are. horrible."

As a standard American girl, she must master the traditional skill of scolding the president.

"Yes, but the President of the United States is a puppet of the conglomerate who was pushed to the front and was scolded. We live in a world where what we hear may be deceptive and what we see may be deceptive. You have just debuted, so you should think more about it when encountering problems in the future."

While Su Ming drank tea slowly, he instilled some "death knell thoughts" into her in a veteran tone.

"Well, what about maintaining your appearance?" She asked curiously like a fox who was thinking about the way to stay young forever.

Deathstroke deliberately changed the topic and talked about the tea in front of him:

"The Imperial Gaiwan tea is different from the Sichuan Gaiwan tea. Scented tea is mostly used here, which is also commonly known as incense tablets. In summer, incense tablets should be made in the dog days of summer, because the aroma of jasmine is strongest at that time. The water used for making tea is also particular, at least it must be from Yanqing. Pearl Spring or the water source of Wat Pho”

From making tea, to brewing, to how to drink it, how to add water, and all the details on the table, Su Ming talked eloquently and almost never stopped.

"Woo"

The confused Daisy wailed, and when the roast duck was on the table, she quickly turned her grief and anger into appetite.

I told her the secret of eternal youth when we came to have dinner together. Could it be that we were drinking tea? big liar!

After both of them had eaten and drank enough, paid the bill, and rested under the pavilion in the yard, Deathstroke brought up the topic of the superhero world again.

"It seems that you love learning, so let me tell you about the origins of the superhero era and the various complicated relationships." Su Ming leaned against the red lacquer pillar, holding a teacup in his hand.

The female Thor was so full that she fell asleep. Her drooping head shook:

"I just want to know how to beautify myself"

What Su Ming wants to say is not up to her to decide? As I said before, I have a way to stay young forever, but it is very precious, so of course it is impossible to tell her the answer directly.

I saw his expression perk up, and he said loudly: "Speaking of the general trend of the world, if we divide for a long time, we must unite, and if we unite for a long time, we must divide. The rolling water of the Yangtze River flows eastward, and the waves wash away all the heroes. Right and wrong, success or failure, turn away in vain, and the sunset turns red a few times."

Yes, the story started in 1931, beautifying his own "history of demonic reform".

"Woo"

Astronomers see Venus in front of their eyes. Just after eating, they hear that their brains are starved of oxygen!

When the dazed Daisy came back to her senses, she realized that she and Deathstroke were already in the universe.

Her first reaction was to be surprised that she could breathe in the universe, and then she began to look at the surrounding environment curiously. There was space junk floating not far away, and there was a small piece of faded American flag printed on the broken piece of metal.

Looking down, the blue planet was right under their feet, and not far away was the pale natural satellite, the moon.

When Deathstroke was telling stories, he took her for a walk. As a result, she listened and followed, and naturally followed him out of the earth.

This memory made her dumbfounded.

But then, the side of her as an astronomer came out again, and she began to carefully look at the nearby moon. This was the first time she observed this familiar celestial body from this perspective.

To be honest, the bumpy moon is nothing interesting to see. It’s just the back side of the moon. Why is there a city? !

"Okay, don't be surprised, this is just the first step towards the universe."

Even in a vacuum environment, the sound of the death knell was accurately transmitted to her ears, and his whole body was also exuding a faint colored light:

"Since you want to learn from me how to be a superhero in the new era, the first lesson is to learn how to plan before taking action. Come on, I will take you to Attilan to borrow an inconspicuous little spaceship. By the way, we will Make arrangements before leaving Earth."
