Chapter 140: I’ve won over you guys
Kama Taj, Library Pavilion.
It was still dark, and the morning air was particularly fresh.
Ancient Yi walked in with a new administrator mage who looked a little green, and briefly told him a few things.
"You need to become familiar with the placement of various magic books in the library as soon as possible, as well as the catalog of books that are prohibited from visiting and outside. These books are usually protected by magic. There will be an alarm for illegal intrusion. When the time comes, you should press the emergency button."
The enchantment of Kama Taj is very strong. After getting started, the mages will also give priority to learning to open the portal. These measures can be summed up in one word.
vegetable!
In order to ensure that the novice mages below could survive in his absence, Gu Yi spent a lot of time.
The pink mage took note of the Supreme Mage's words and nodded repeatedly.
"I'll do it right."
A dazzling light suddenly lit up in the slightly dim library pavilion.
A figure stood next to the bookshelf. He was wearing a gray cloak, looking intently at the magic book in his hand. The magic circles in his other hand overlapped one after another, erupting with dazzling golden thunder and lightning, and powerful magic fluctuations. It is precisely controlled in the palm of your hand without any spillage.
Gu Yi walked over and pretended to look around, then showed doubts in his eyes.
"Mage, have you ever seen a mage who looks very similar to you, but is a hundred times lazier than you, and has to trick his clone into reading books for him?"
The figure pulled open his cloak, revealing long silver-white hair and flawless emerald green eyes. His appearance was so beautiful that even a woman would be embarrassed, making the pink novice mage next to him blush.
"Master Gu Yi, please don't belittle me like this."
Looking at the man's ears, which were slightly more pointed than ordinary people, Gu Yi focused his inquiring gaze on him, and a misty light flashed through his eyes.
"Are you Lu Ke's new clone? This clone is a bit interesting. It has a physical body and the same soul fluctuations."
The elf showed a smile that was as indifferent as water, "That's right."
The Marvel world is very compatible with all kinds of powers. After studying shadow clones and clone spells, soul division, and memory operations, Luke himself planned to mix the templates of other Lukes to create several clone services.
He is the first trial work, applying the template of Elf Luke, and is responsible for the study of magic and the translation of spells into magic.
Ancient One placed his eyes on Elf Luke's ears, with a little nostalgia in his eyes, "I haven't seen elves as a species for a long time."
"Have you seen elves before?"
Gu Yi answered lightly, "Yes, I have many false identities, such as the great magician Merlin. I once assisted King Arthur in his rise to power. There were still some elves at that time, but their aura was different from yours."
Have you also worn Merlin's vest?
The elf nodded thoughtfully. After all, this is Marvel. The infinite multiverse has countless possibilities. Merlin, the all-powerful observer, should be the only one. It is not too strange that Merlin in other parallel worlds is someone else.
"Interesting news, can I ask you a question?"
"Tell me about it."
"Is King Arthur a beautiful girl with blue eyes and blonde hair?"
Gu Yi glanced at him with a strange expression, as if wondering why he had such strange thoughts.
"No, he's a muscular, bearded Celtic guy."
"...If I hear these words, I will probably be subject to a spiritual storm."
…
New York, Manhattan.
Natasha put on a smart suit today and changed her black-rimmed glasses to brown to soften her original slightly sharp sexiness. She took a deep breath and adjusted herself.
After giving some hints in the mirror to ensure that the psychological defense was firmly established, she knocked on the door of the clinic.
The sound of footsteps came from far away, and then the door was opened, and a face that seemed to wash away the gloom in her heart greeted her with a smile.
"Good morning, Natasha."
"Good morning, Mr. Luke."
Luke raised his hand and looked at his watch, "It's only eight o'clock in the morning. It's still early before going to work. You can come back later."
"On my first day at work, I hope I can leave a good impression on you and get familiar with the business."
Natasha acted a little embarrassed, her eyes wandered, as if she didn't dare to look at Luke's face, and felt embarrassed for yesterday's kiss.
"Then you are very successful. No boss would hate a hard-working employee, but I need to state in advance that there is no overtime pay for arriving early."
Lu Ke smiled slightly and welcomed the person in with a gesture of invitation.
Only then did Natasha notice that he was wearing an apron and seemed to be busy in the kitchen.
She was a little surprised and asked: "You cook by yourself?"
Judging from the information provided by SHIELD, Luke is definitely considered a rich man now. He charges ridiculously high prices for the treatment of rich people, but his business is still very good, and there is an endless stream of big shots coming to see him.
What does it mean for such a rich man to cook for himself and enjoy life?
"Well, I'm not used to breakfast outside." Luke returned to the kitchen and answered casually.
Target is demanding about food.
Natasha walked in and said tentatively: "If you don't mind, I can help you prepare three meals. I also know a lot about Chinese food."
"Just go and wait. Employees who arrive early may not get overtime pay, but they will get free breakfast."
Luke smiled gently and didn't answer.
Natasha, who was rejected, returned to the dining table in a somewhat subtle mood. Two dogs were wandering in front of her, which made her feel nervous.
After basically confirming that these two unknown dogs were monsters, she became wary of them, and her muscles immediately tensed, ready to escape at any time.
But the two dogs completely ignored her and just walked on their own, or chased and fought with each other like ordinary dogs. The only difference was that they did not destroy the furnishings at home at all when playing.
After tensing up for a while, Natasha smelled a hint of the scent of food, with a look of surprise on her face. She had never smelled such a greedy smell.
Luke took a tray and placed the dishes on the table.
Four bowls of clear noodle soup with eggs and chopped green onion, a plate of green pepper and potato shreds that are full of color and aroma, a bowl of tangy and oily braised pork, steak fried until golden brown, and a few sandwiches, with a bowl in the middle. Bowl of lotus root and pork ribs soup.
After setting the food, Luke took off his apron.
"The dishes are ready." "Your cooking skills are so good. These dishes look delicious."
Natasha swore she had never seen such an appetizing breakfast. Although the portion was a bit too much for two people, she was confident that she could finish it.
No wonder Luke doesn’t want to eat out, and the same goes for her!
Dong dong dong——
There was a knock on the door, and Xiao Hei, who was struggling with Xiao Bai, broke away, rolled his eyes and ran to open the door.
"I smell the food, Luke, what delicious food did you make today."
Tony walked in with an exaggerated tone. He was stunned for a moment when he saw Natasha, and then quickly pulled Luke to another place.
"Did I interrupt your good business? That girl looks very decent."
"Why didn't Happy come?"
"I guessed that you would prepare for him, so I assigned him a task and sent him somewhere else."
This way he can have two breakfasts to himself!
Luke:......
As expected of you!
"Don't change the subject. Is that girl your one-night stand?"
"That's my new hire, she's just my assistant, Tony."
"Oh~Assistant." Tony nodded meaningfully, "I understand, I understand, my assistant can do something, it's okay..."
"Tony, don't say that. Natasha is very pitiful. Her father is alcoholic, her mother is seriously ill, and she has younger siblings to take care of."
Luke showed a helpless expression.
How can people with such family conditions develop so well, have skin so smooth and delicate, and dress up so beautifully?
Well, there may be, but there is a high probability that it has ulterior motives, mostly for money!
Tony looked at Luke's face, lost in thought.
Or maybe it’s for people.
"I just want to help her and provide her with a decent income."
Tony:…
If it were anyone else, Tony would have called him prude, but Luke was different.
He was able to refuse Tony's offer of Stark Industries shares, and also gave 90% of the money he earned from medical treatment to Tony, asking him to help donate it to various foundations around the world.
Facts speak louder than words. After being used to politicians who talk nice words, Tony is even more convinced that Luke is a practical person. He is simply the Captain America of the 21st century!
Hmm... Of course, he actually hated that old antique that his father kept talking about neatly. It was not a good way to describe his friend.
"Lu Ke, you can't be too honest. You should learn to enjoy life. This does not affect your charity. Only when you are happy can everyone be happy."
Tony looked at his friend sadly. He didn't even eat the meat that was put to his mouth. He only sympathized with and felt sorry for the other person. This was simply being honest and straightforward!
"Tell me honestly, have you not graduated yet?"
"I graduated from college four years ago."
"You know what I'm talking about!"
Lu Ke felt shy and said, "Not yet..."
"ohmygod!"
Tony let out a sigh. If he had this face, he would have already evolved from killing thousands of people to being the enemy of ten thousand people, and Luke didn't have any boxing experience yet.
Tony would not allow such an honest person among his friends!
The two returned to the table, and Natasha was waiting for them without moving her chopsticks.
"Hey, hello, I'm Luke's friend, do you need to introduce yourself?"
"Of course not. The Stark Tower with your name on it is a hundred meters away from the office building. You are a big celebrity in New York."
Natasha smiled politely, "Natasha, nice to meet you, Mr. Tony Stark."
"Miss Natasha, I really want to be polite to you again, but my stomach can't hold it anymore, so let's eat first."
The three of them began to enjoy breakfast. Natasha was relatively reserved at first, but later she found out that Tony was eager to rob openly and then secretly speeded up her eating.
"Lu Ke, if I were a woman, I would definitely marry you, so that I can eat the loving breakfast you prepared every day."
After burping, Tony touched his belly and let out an unintentional sigh. When he saw Natasha's eyes brightening, he nodded with satisfaction and stood up with difficulty.
"I'm going to Afghanistan soon. Do I want to bring you some souvenirs? Well... I guess there aren't any souvenirs in that damn place."
Luke raised his eyebrows, took out a jade pendant and handed it to him, "This is for you."
"What is this?" Tony touched the jade pendant and looked at the pattern on it with curiosity.
"Well...it's hard to explain. You'll know when you ask me for help from the bottom of your heart."
"Ha, I've never asked for help from anyone in my whole life!"
After Tony finished speaking, he waved and walked out of the door.
"I'll go see Mr. Stark off."
"Well, okay."
Natasha stood up and walked out of the room unhurriedly. After a few minutes, she came back with a calm face.
"Mr. Stark has made it out safely."
Luke: (ˇ_ˇ:)
It’s not very safe.
You took all the jade pendants I gave him!
I find that my coding is getting slower and slower, which is sad
