Chapter 861 Trainees
"What?" Dum felt that there was something wrong with his ears. Is it because the eardrums were damaged when I practiced the explosion spell yesterday? The guy standing in front of him must be a nightcrawler.
Isn't he a superhero? When Eastern Europe was in turmoil back then, in order to quell the war, this guy brought a group of people out to stop him. At that time, I still thought this guy was a guy with too much sense of justice.
And what was he talking about sitting in front of him now? Join a secret organization and secretly control the world?
"Has your brain been broken? Or are you actually a fake nightcrawler?" Dum had reason to raise such doubts. He was even ready to summon the Ancient One mage, saying that Nightcrawler was being controlled or something.
Dum still knew that Master Gu Yi valued Li Jie very much, maybe Li Jie was Kamateki's son-in-law. After all, it is rumored that the relationship between Gu Yi's adopted daughter and Nightcrawler is extraordinary.
If you report the letter yourself, maybe you can get a good impression? Doom has already made up his mind to be the next Supreme Mage, and he now has another competitor, that is Dr. Strange in the Nightcrawler's house.
According to Dum's character, any possible danger should be suppressed to the minimum. Do your best in anything that can make you feel good.
Dum's non-cooperation was a bit beyond Li Jie's expectation. He said with some surprise: "Don't you like this rhetoric? I thought that as a big villain, this kind of rhetoric can excite you."
"Damn it. What a retarded person would get excited by saying that? And when did I become a villain? I deserve everything I do in this world! Even if it's war, I feel like I did it It makes sense, not to mention that I have never launched a foreign war! (The war in Eastern Europe was started by Wuchang)" Dum looked at Li Jie and said in a surprised tone.
Li Jie didn't quite know whether Dum's surprise came from his real thoughts, or he was just pretending to do so.
"Okay, okay. I thought you would like this. Then we will secretly control the world or something, and become the mastermind behind the whole world. I thought you would get excited and beg me to let you join this mysterious organization. "
Master Doom scoffed at Li Jie's statement. He snorted disdainfully: "Dream! I can never ask anyone! And I don't care about those crap things you care about!"
"Really? You don't care about Strange competing with you for the position of Supreme Mage?" Li Jie asked.
Doom: …………………
"Hmph! There's no way I'd lose to this kind of guy, although I admit that he does have a bit of guts." Dum vaguely remembered Strange's demeanor of a general who didn't change his face when the mountain collapsed in front of him (tough to die support). Dum still admired Strange for this.
Especially after spending a period of time with Strange, the two of them learned magic together, Strange's progress was still very fast. So although Doom doesn't want to admit it, Strange is indeed talented and courageous (Strange: Actually, it's not what you think).
Li Jie followed Dum's words: "Yes, yes. He is not as good as you, at least you should not worry about losing your hair."
"Hair loss?" Doom was a little puzzled.
"Didn't you drink that energy water (sow injection milk)?" Li Jie looked at Dum in surprise: "It is a potion that can enhance the magic activity of mages and increase the quickness of thinking. This thing is good for everything , the only side effect is hair loss. Strange is already drinking this kind of thing, but in order to keep his hair, he has used his savings to hoard Dawn 101 hair tonic. Almost every three days he has to use Drop a bottle, only this frequency can keep his hair."
"I guess you probably don't need to use this seemingly cheating method, right. Although I heard from Lan that most of the male mages in Kamateki need to be able to drink this kind of drink." Li Jie said seemingly without any intention with.
Dum's steel mask twitched, and then he figured out something in his heart: No wonder so many male mages he saw in Kamateki were bald, even the king was bald. I thought it would be more convenient to practice magic with a bald head, but here is the answer!
The secret that had troubled Dum for a long time was finally revealed by Li Jie. But what is depressing is that no one gave this kind of good thing to himself. Maybe it's because Dum doesn't like to communicate with other people, so he's rather withdrawn?
Perhaps communicating with others is also part of the assessment to become a supreme mage? Although Strange is not as good as himself (Dom thinks himself), he is better at communicating with people. After all, he is a former world-renowned doctor, and his treatment of people and things is still up to standard.
"Actually, I think you are more suitable to be the supreme mage than Strange, really." Li Jie said very sincerely (at least on the surface) "You look more dignified, at least you don't want to lose your hair every day. Look, is there a mage in Kamateki who is troubled by hair loss? I guess a mage who can't become bald can't achieve the supreme position!"
"But at the same time, I also think you need some little help." Li Jie's words almost made Dum annoyed.
Dum asked with a cold face, "What help?"
"Image problem!" Li Jie pointed to Dum's Iron Mask: "Excuse me, I know something about you. Dr. Reed on the moon was your classmate in college, and he once said something about you , Your face was burned due to an accident in a chemistry experiment class at the university, ruining your appearance."
Dum's tone became colder: "So what?"
Li Jie sighed: "It's just a pity. It's not that I can't help you. Although there is an old saying [whoever stipulates that heroes (heroes) must be handsome!], handsome heroes are always more handsome. Charming. If you become the supreme mage, are you still going to wear an iron mask? That is the position to deal with multi-dimensional demon gods. Do you think those demon gods will laugh at you as a person who hides your head and shows your tail? Seriously, I checked you in the past Old pictures from college, you're actually handsome, Doom!"
Dum felt that he could no longer suppress his anger: "What I look like is my business! It has nothing to do with you!"
"Don't get excited, don't get excited! Look, I'm here to discuss cooperation with you. We didn't just talk about whether you should try to join our secret organization and become the black hand of the world or something. Although you can't become ours all at once We are regular members, but even as intern members we still have benefits.” Li Jie seduced them step by step.
"For example, a newly developed potion may restore your original appearance? You can wear the iron mask when you want, and throw it away when you don't want to wear it. Isn't it good to be a handsome guy again?"
Dum felt that he had never been a person who cared about his appearance. He had been disfigured for so many years, and he never cared about it.
But today, as if by accident, he said for the first time: "Then what is the price?"
Nightcrawler showed a smile: "Become a trainee member of our organization and do me a small favor by the way. We need to promote a small potion that is good for your health to the world."
