More than ten seconds passed, and after Thanos came to his senses and threw aside the stone altar he was holding, the door of the store finally opened.Standing at the door was a middle-aged man, dressed a bit like Elvis, wearing a white suit with big lapels and long pointed shoes, but the hairstyle was not the same airplane head as Elvis, but like a hedgehog's spikes, it was pierced into the sky.Originally, he was still a little impatient, but after seeing the black and yellow armor outside the door, he showed a surprised expression, smiled and saluted: "I thought it was the big guys who wanted to come to my store to buy a few bottles of holy water before going to space, but I didn't expect it to be the Supreme Mage coming, it's really a rare guest." ”"You have a villa in such a community, in fact, you are also one of the big guys, bother."
Giving a bottle of wine as a gift for the visit, Su Ming also made a triangular handprint representing Emperor Weishan and walked through the motions, and then walked into the store, and introduced to his teammates with a smile as he walked: "This is the person I am looking for, Ian McNee, known in the wizarding world as the shopowner, an archmage and billionaire. ”"Hehe, hello, Captain Marvel, Miss Hela, and oh, Thanos in the Dark Quadrant, well, a rare team combination.Well, don't talk about billionaire jokes, Supreme Mage, this house may be worth that price, but I'm not going to sell it, so I don't have a few hundred dollars in my pocket right now, or I'd definitely buy a spaceship for a ride, didn't the Ancient One tell you?
I'm a person who likes to keep up with trends. ”Su Ming didn't speak, just nodded and smiled, the same as the ancient one's habitual expression.Didn't Ian's trend stop in the 80s?
This kind of Elvis nightclub-style dress has revealed that he, like most mages, just thinks he is fashionable.His shop is a magic prop shop, and you can see a lot of weird things here that rich people like, such as the kind of chests that people lie in and then have magicians sawing open with chainsaws?
There's one here, and it's still made of gold.Escape magic tanks made of all-crystal, magic gloves made of dragon skin, and miscellaneous but valuable knick-knacks are piled up all over the store.Of course, there is not a single magic item that can be seen on the surface, and all the rare materials have been made into ordinary props, but this place is still very important, and it is a very important sealing node on the earth.Passing through the messy shelves, and what appeared to be bacon and dried vegetables hanging from the ceiling, Ian led the group to a corner of the store, where there was an ornate gemstone round table, leather couches, and Middle Eastern-inspired blankets and cushions."
Please be seated, Supreme Mage, today should be a busy day for you and Captain Marvel, how do you have time to come to my shop?"
He was obviously a little confused, knowing that for Americans, today was the day of departure for the Great Voyage of Space.And since Deathbell took over the position of Supreme Mage, he has never looked for himself, could it be that there is something wrong with the seal?
It shouldn't be."
Quick, I like it, Ian, I need you to open the vault and use one of these things."
Death Knell said it directly, because Ian can be regarded as most of his own people, at least in front of the overall situation.To put it simply, he is also a believer of Emperor Weishan, and his ancestors have also produced supreme mages, and many people have died in battles to protect the earth.Originally, Emperor Weishan had secretly arranged it, didn't the ancient one feel that his limit was approaching and wanted to retire, Ian McNee was the next Supreme Mage they had booked.It's not Monak, it's not Mordo, it's not Strange, who wasn't born at the time, it's the hedgehog head in front of him.When it comes to family traditions, he is infallible; When it comes to magical prowess, he's just as powerful; In addition to having a somewhat salted fish personality and no ambitions, it can be said that he was the best candidate of the year.After all, the Supreme Mage only needs to squat inside the Kama Taj to form a deterrent, so what do you want to be ambitious?
But then the death knell appeared, and the ancient master gave Su Ming the position hand, and Ian's side was very embarrassed to lose.Originally, if Ian himself didn't know, it would be fine, but the key is that Emperor Weishan told him first when he didn't have a word.Earlier, Emperor Vishan came to him in a dream and said, 'We have decided, you are the next Supreme Master, and you will go up when the Ancient One retires'.Ian vowed to fight for the protection of the earth for the rest of his life, and did not hesitate to shed his blood for the sake of the three saints.He then began to exercise, ready to pay the price of savior-level magic at any time, ready to move to Nepal, not to mention, even the teaching materials for teaching students were written, and at the same time, he also told all his friends and relatives in the wizarding world that he was going to be a supreme mage in a few years, because this was also a glorious ancestor.As a result, within a few years, one night, Ao Shutu sent a little blue bird to tell him: "That, Supreme Mage, we have indeed changed, but unfortunately it is not you".To tell the truth, if I were to change to someone else, I am afraid that I would turn black on the spot, and I would instead throw the ashes of the three-body problem or simply Sithorn.But Ian didn't, his life was a hymn to loyalty, he calmly accepted Emperor Weishan's decision, and continued to retreat in Haimen, fulfilling the duties of the family.Sounds like a nice guy?
Probably, but if he becomes a Supreme Mage, I'm afraid he won't be as good as Doctor Strange in the MCU.He worships Emperor Weishan very fanatically, but he doesn't want to protect human beings, he just wants to follow the will of the Three Sages and protect the earth, the birthplace of magic, in his eyes, ordinary people are not even a number, they are all bargaining chips that can be sacrificed for the wishes of the gods.The Ancient One's philosophy in this regard was different from his, so back then, she chose Death Knell from another world as her successor, because Death Knell's views were closest to hers.That is, a person can sacrifice for someone else, even if the person is 'sacrificed' without the person's knowledge, but for what God's desire?
That's still it.After Su Ming succeeded him, he had never been here in Haimen, even if he knew about the existence of Ian, a 'competitor'.That's why.Although both of them are mixed with Emperor Weishan, Ian is not the mage of Kama Taj, and the two sides have no affiliation, and the specific details are indeed not in the same pot as themselves.Don't look at him from opening the door to receiving guests, he behaves politely, and his speech makes people feel like a spring breeze, and now he is pouring tea and preparing snacks.But what he respects is the identity of the Supreme Mage, not the death knell himself, what he sees in his eyes is not a man, but the spokesperson of Emperor Weishan who is marked as black and yellow, that's all, Ao Shutu sent a little blue bird down to pass the word, and he will also entertain like this.Tea?
Dim sum?
Greeting?
They are all dedicated to the Three Saints.So Su Ming thinks it's better to come to him, sit on the soft antique sofa and drink tea and chat?
The two faced each other, and the other party was very enthusiastic, but they were always looking at the position above their heads and behind them, as if they were looking forward to the arrival of Emperor Weishan.
It's more comfortable to sit cross-legged on the floor of Monark's house and smell the stench emanating from the countless rabbit cages.
