The Death Knell

"Tongue loves roast duck."

Zheng Xian, with a serious face, said the first sentence in English, and at the same time he rubbed his fingers on the tabletop, as if there was a mosquito there that no one else could see.

".Um."

The person on the other side seemed to hesitate for a moment, and then made an affirmative sound.

“When an elephant emerges from the water, no one survives.”

Zheng Xian changed to Chinese and said something again. His fingers stopped moving and he took it off the table.

"good."

This time the person on the other side of the microphone agreed readily, with almost no thought.

After such a short exchange of words, Zheng Xian hung up the phone and raised his hand to indicate that everyone had reached an agreement:

"We have made an appointment. My friend will come over in person. He definitely wants to cooperate. Let's have tea first and we will go there later."

"So my nickname in the secret code of the Divine Spear Bureau is Elephant?" Su Ming scratched his head, smiled and took a sip of tea: "When did you peek at me taking a shower?"

"Bah, shameless. Is it appropriate for a supreme mage to say such a joke? You are really infected by Deadpool." As a person who has lived from the Ming Dynasty to the present, Zheng Xian also understood the implication of the death knell instantly. He laughed and scolded: "All the pronouns for heavyweights in conversations are elephants. It has nothing to do with you. You can just understand it as what young people call VIP."

Only then did Carol and Wanda understand what the two people were talking about. They blushed at first, and then sighed in unison.

Deathstroke is good at everything, except that sometimes he suddenly becomes erratic, like he has some kind of intermittent mental illness, but at least it's much better than Deadpool's intermittent normality.

Lao Zheng's code mentioned the location, time, and person. This can be regarded as a confidentiality measure, but it is just to be wary of ordinary thieves.

The time soon came to fourteen forty-four, which represented 'no one survived'. Zheng Xian stood up and politely asked Wanda to open a portal to the imperial capital.

"Where is the specific location?"

The witch raised her hand and prepared to cast a spell, but the imperial capital was too big to do without specific coordinates.

"Deathstroke knows, it's the Mutant Roast Duck Private Restaurant we used to eat at." Zheng Xian replied, thinking for a few seconds, and took out a bagged stick from under the desk. Carrying it behind your back.

"Adjutant, these coordinates are for teleportation." Su Ming pressed Wanda's hand. It was only a few thousand kilometers from the South China Sea where the Tianhuan base is located to the imperial capital. There was no need for teleportation magic. "But Old Zheng, you still have Eternity with you." Have you ever eaten roast duck at this restaurant? You didn’t tell me about this last time. It seems that your friend is quite close."

"You got it wrong, Brother Su. I don't know how old my friend from the Eternals is, but he must have been eating roast duck much longer than me."

The blue light transmitted interrupted Zheng Xian's words. Several people instantly appeared in an alley that was not very tidy, with the courtyard in front of them. He finished his words:

"Actually, he was the first to bring me to this store, but he doesn't come here often. I heard that there are a lot of bad things going on in the Eternals."

Su Ming nodded and looked at the surrounding environment. When he and Zheng Xian came here, there were slogans written on the walls of the alley, saying that family planning was a basic national policy.

It’s gone now, and you can vaguely see some white paint marks on the cyan brick wall, but what’s more conspicuous is that there are children nearby who are doing art here, using colored chalks to draw some little ducks and other creatures.

It's probably a little duck. The painting style is a bit abstract. Since normal ducks don't have brown-red feathers, maybe this painting is "Roast Duck Playing in the Water"?

For the duck, it is undoubtedly a hell scroll, but for the roast duck restaurant, it seems to be some kind of praise? Said that the duck he roasted with mutant superpowers was so tender and full of juice?

"Brother Zheng, please."

Raising his palm towards the door, the Supreme Mage asked Old Zheng, who paid for today's treat, to go first.

"Brother, please."

The Chief of Divine Spear pushed him aside, and the two laughed and pulled each other a few more times, and finally walked hand in hand across the tall threshold.

Although it is a private kitchen, there is actually a waiter in this family. He is probably the grandson of the boss or someone. As soon as he smells the smell, he knows that he is also a mutant. However, the child is not old, he looks like seven or eight years old, and he must be very capable. Just don't go anywhere.

Not everyone is as exaggerated as little Franklin, most people are ordinary people like Su Ming.

Entering the third yard, you pass through the front room and the middle yard, and arrive at the backyard. At this time, tables and benches have been set up under the trees. Not far away, you can see the chef in the kitchen breathing fire with his hands, standing on several iron shelves. On the duck's body, its hands are raised and lowered.

Two people were already sitting at the table, one was a man with blond hair and the other was a woman with the same hairstyle.

Seeing Zheng Xian and Deathstroke arriving, they both stood up to greet him, but just before the man was about to speak, Deathstroke spoke first:

"It turns out that Lao Zheng's friends are you, Igris and Xina. Please sit down. You're welcome. In fact, you can come to me directly without having to deal with all these troublesome things."

The man was stunned for a moment. Deathstroke said it very lightly, but it would be great if Kamathaj was so easy to get in. However, he still smiled and held Deathstroke's hand:

"The Supreme Mage actually knows about us?"

"Of course, after all, you are the current leader of the Eternals. You are more than 20,000 years old, right? You are a veteran on earth. And I am the Supreme Mage, and I will always pay the necessary attention to all forces." Su Ming smiled He invited everyone to sit down, and since Thanos' butt was too big, he also asked the store owner to buy another Taishi chair.

Igris was actually very smart, and he heard the implication of Death Knell.

When he mentioned his age, he was definitely blaming it secretly. The Eternals have obviously existed on the earth for so long, and Igris has been the leader for thousands of years, but they have never thought of getting closer to Emperor Weishan in the past. .

Nowadays, the Eternals are divided within themselves, and a group of people are instigated by careerists to take another path, which may lead to the entire Eternals being implicated in a terrifying whirlpool.

Isn't it a little late now that they know they are afraid of the Great Purge by the Supreme Mage?

Igris knew that he had to tell the truth, because in the legend, the Supreme Mage of every generation was a delicate, suspicious and vicious person.

Especially the death knell of this generation of Supreme Mage. Even if he has only heard some gossip about him, Igris can clearly realize that this is probably the generation that is least like the Supreme Mage in history, but is actually the most powerful. .

A super soldier actually commands the largest force on the mysterious side, and now the fate of the Eternals may be decided by him. The whole thing is like black humor.

Humanity is really developing too fast.
