Chapter Forty-Six: The Beauty and the Devil I

From the little red bottle that Li Yunlong sold to S.H.I.E.L.D., the experts analyzed the lessons and lessons, compared with a large organization like S.H.I.E.L.D., although Li Yunlong's goods are magical, the effect is far less effective than ideally, because S.H.I.E.L.D., as an organization, can pay the price of human life, and if this price is calculated according to money, it is definitely more suitable than buying things from Li Yunlong. Although Coulson believes from a personal point of view that buying a small red bottle can save a life at a critical moment, from the overall situation of S.H.I.E.L.D., only the lives of agents in a few core positions are worth paying for the little red bottle, but these people are a minority, and they don't need to buy many little red bottles at all. The people who really need the Little Red Bottle to save lives are the people who are fighting on the front line, there are too many of these people, and the high price of the Little Red Bottle makes it impossible to use them, so the voice of opposition within S.H.I.E.L.D. to continue to buy the Little Red Bottle, Coulson is understandable.

Although this commodity that Li Yunlong took out was claimed to be a real magic contract, would it be the same as the little red bottle in terms of use? Coulson was very skeptical.

This contract should be made of parchment paper based on its feel and luster, not the modern parchment made from chemical wood pulp, but more closely to the medieval process of parchment made from animal skins. There are no ornamental patterns, the text used is English, and the format is simple, starting with the words "One-time Team Contract". The following is a vertical arrangement of four team members starting from the captain, a total of five signature columns, and then the relevant instructions. According to the description of the contract, this contract must be signed by the blood of the user, starting from the signature of the captain, and it must take no more than half an hour to complete the signature of all participants at the latest, if the contract cannot be activated after this time limit, it will be considered a failure. This team contract can accommodate up to five people, including the captain, with a minimum of one captain. The power to activate the contract is in the hands of the captain, the absolute core of the squad, and only the captain needs to hold the contract and say "Team up the contract to activate." "Yes, but because the contract is a one-time thing, you can't stop it once you start it. As a magic contract, it lasts for 30 minutes after activation, and during this time, it can provide three magical powers to all members of the team, including the captain, namely: Brute Bull Power, Quick Action, and Telepathy. As long as the distance between the party members and the leader is no more than 500 meters in a straight line, these effects will not expire until 30 minutes have passed, unless some other force destroys the magic effects provided by the magic contract. In order to ensure the captain's rights, the contract provides a puppet curse, which can be activated if the captain believes that a team member is disobedient or suspected of betrayal. The last clause of the note specifically states that the final interpretation of the contract belongs to the producer, and there is a date in the lower right corner, December 2001.

If you just look at this description of the contract, this contract is a little interesting, Coulson pondered for a moment, "It says that you need to sign the contract with blood, which makes me have a bad association, and the contract of the devil in myths and legends also has to be signed by people with their own blood." ”

Li Yunlong: "Human blood has a special meaning in the occult, and it will be regarded as the outflow of human life and spirituality. Although this contract is a one-time contract, after all, it is also a magic contract, and its user is a mortal in the design, and it does not use blood, and mortals can't use a pen to sign it at all! Besides, how much blood can be used for the signature on a magic contract? Just take a needle and prick it on your finger and get a few drops of blood to smear it on it. ”

Coulson: "Aren't you going to sign with blood?"

Li Yunlong: "The point is on blood, not on asking you to write your name on it." It's blood that works magically, in other words, the blood you put on the signature slot of the magic contract is your signature, what's the use of asking you to be a mortal? ”

Coulson: "Aren't there many myths and legends that you can curse people by knowing their names?"

Li Yunlong hated this very much, the layman was like this, and as soon as he knew half of it, he began to guess wildly, "What you said is not a myth or legend, it is called a fairy tale." What's the use of knowing mortal names? Are there still so few criminals who change their names? Mortal names are almost useless in the occult. If you want to curse someone else by a name, that name must be the real name referred to in Shingon Dharma, at least partially of it. Have you seen the exorcism movie? The priests in it shout the holy name of God when they exorcise demons, and the holy name of God can be regarded as the real name in the Shingon Technique. Some magic books will also record the name of the demon god, which is also the real name, although it is only a part of the real name, with the mantra and certain rituals, you can communicate with the demon god, of course, those things are too dangerous, if you don't want to die ugly, don't play with that kind of thing. ”

Coulson hurriedly wrote down Li Yunlong's words, with Li Yunlong's power, of course, he would not lie about such a trivial matter, and recording it can increase his understanding of the mysterious power, "That is to say, you only need to smear your own blood on the signature bar to have a magical effect, and you don't need to sign!"

"Yo!" Li Yunlong showed a smile that you also understand, "I can see it so quickly! This is actually a hidden use of magic contracts, the captain must be his own people, and the team members do not necessarily have to be their own people! When performing tasks, they may not be so safe, sometimes they need cannon fodder to rush ahead!" Li Yunlong pointed to the terms of the puppet curse, "This is not used!"

Coulson made 18 twists and turns in his mind at this moment, and came up with many ways to use this magic contract, if you look at it from this insidious point of view, this contract is worth a lot more" Coulson's finger pointed at the very back of the puppet curse clause, where there was a sign that resembled the number three.

Li Yunlong: "That's the level three restriction mark. The golem curse provided by the contract has a cap on energy levels. Level 1 is an ordinary person, Level 2 is a trained soldier, and Level 3 is the pinnacle of mortals. Li Yunlong shrugged his shoulders and acted like a scoundrel, "It's just a one-time bargain worth $1 million, how powerful can you expect this contract to be?" I would like to remind you that the date marked in the lower right corner of the contract is the expiration date, and if it exceeds this time, it will not be responsible for any further problems. ”

Coulson had 10,000 MMBs in his heart, and he didn't know whether to say it or not, but this time Coulson didn't buy the little red bottle, and bought all five contracts.

On the evening of June 2, 2001, a man with the same appearance as Coulson appeared at the door of Li Yunlong's hut and knocked politely on the door.

He was greeted by the enthusiastic Li Yunlong, and without saying a word, he grabbed his hand and pulled him into the living room, "Drink water or tea?" Of course, other drinks are also available, beautiful ladies always have special treatment!"

The Shapeshifter was silent for a moment. Mimicking Coulson's voice, he said, "Mr. Brooke Lee, are you mistaken?"

Li Yunlong smiled happily, "I can't be mistaken, I also have X genes on me! This beautiful lady, what should I call you?"

The Shapeshifter was silent for a moment, not changing her appearance, but her voice no longer mimicked Coulson's, "You can call me Raven." How do you see that?"

Li Yunlong: "Although this is just a small secret, it involves my own ability, so I won't tell you unless you become my Taoist companion." ”

The appearance of the demon girl began to change, and a blonde beauty appeared in Li Yunlong's living room, "What a stingy man." What do you mean by Taoist couple?"

Li Yunlong: "The Taoist couple is the partner who accompanies me to explore and move forward on the avenue, and the relationship is closer than that of husband and wife. ”

The demon girl just glanced at Li Yunlong amorously, and was not angry because of Li Yunlong's words, she leaned lazily on the table, "What do you have to drink here?"

Li Yunlong: "What do you want to drink?"

Magical: "Let's have a mushroom coffee!"

Li Yunlong's face remained unchanged, "What kind of flavor do you want?"

"Demonic Girl" matte extra black coffee. ”

Li Yunlong stretched out his hand and signaled, "Please use it." A cup of matte black coffee appeared in front of the demon girl like a phantom.

The Demon Girl looked up at Li Yunlong, then lowered her head to take a closer look at the coffee that appeared in front of her, as a martial arts expert, she was confident in her feelings and judgment, but the way this cup of coffee appeared was too weird. The Shapeshifter picked up her coffee and carefully savored it, "It's amazing! How the hell did you do it?" ”

Li Yunlong smiled wordlessly and nodded.

"Have you always treated girls like this?

Li Yunlong: "Although your conclusion is correct, you are wrong about the reason. My main research direction is the ancient occult of the East, and I also follow the path of the ancient Oriental occult in dealing with my heterosexual partners, which has very strict requirements, and if I can't meet them, I would rather be single. ”

The Demon Girl was interested, "So what do you think of me, can I become your Taoist companion?"

Li Yunlong said honestly, "Your strength is too weak, don't say that becoming my Taoist companion, even if you want to become my Ding Furnace, it takes a lot of hard work, and you are already an adult, the three views are basically fixed, the possibility of Luo Ji's thinking mode changing is very small, there is almost no possibility of Dao heart discovery, and it is estimated that you will not be able to become my Taoist companion in this life." ”

Demonic Girl: "What is the Ding Furnace?"

Li Yunlong's "Ding furnace" originally referred to the tools used by alchemists, but it was later extended to refer to women who were used to cooperate with cultivation in the room technique. ”

Even if the demon girl thought she was very cultivated, she couldn't help but get angry after listening to Li Yunlong's words, "You use me as a tool!"

Li Yunlong: "No, your strength is too weak compared to me, and you can't be my furnace at the moment. ”

The demon girl laughed angrily, "I, weak, so this powerful man in front of me, can you show me, a weak woman, your great strength?" Of course, the Demon Girl is qualified to be proud, as a cadre in the Mutant Brotherhood under Magneto, the veteran, the Demon Girl has been born and died many times, relying on her own transformation ability to enter and exit the military forbidden land like no man's land, she has a long reputation among mutants, and she also has her own followers in the Mutant Brotherhood, although the ability is not the strongest in the Mutant Brotherhood, but the most well-informed in the Mutant Brotherhood is undoubtedly the Demon Girl.
