Chapter 101: Emergency? (Ask for subscription)
A coquettish red convertible classic car rolled up clouds of dust and slowly parked not far from the Wizard's Tower.
When the car stopped, the doors on both sides opened, and I saw a woman in a tight-fitting combat uniform and a man in a suit wearing sunglasses slowly walked down.
"Coulson, do you think there's a chance that this guy Myvis will agree to help us?" As soon as she got out of the car, the Chinese woman in a tight combat uniform with a bumpy but slightly old figure frowned, turned her head to look at the man in the sunglasses suit next to her, and asked him in a loud voice.
"May, I think as long as the price is in place, Mr. Mevis will definitely agree."
Hearing Melinda's question, Coulson chuckled and shook his head, opening his mouth to respond: "After all, I haven't been in contact with Mr. Mevis once or twice, I think with his character, as long as we pay enough price, even if it is personal, I don't think it will be difficult." ”
"And the money for his help doesn't need to be paid by S.H.I.E.L.D., so why are we in a hurry?"
After saying this, Coulson reached out and took off his glasses, put them in the left breast pocket of his suit, and without saying anything more, he turned and walked towards the white tower in front of him.
After listening to Coulson's words, Melinda on the side couldn't help but think of the image of a prodigal playboy, shook her head helplessly, walked to Coulson's side in a few strides, and walked towards the white tower with him.
In less than half a minute, the two of them walked to the gate of the tower, but just as they were about to knock on the door, an unusual sound suddenly attracted their attention.
Hearing the sound, Coulson and Melinda couldn't help but turn their heads to look at the place where the sound came from, and saw that not far from them, about a few meters away, a tall horse covered in black scale armor was gently stepping on its two front hooves, snorting and looking at them.
"Huh? When did Mr. Mewvis have an extra horse here? Looking at the black steed, Coulson couldn't help but ask with a little confusion.
"You don't know, how can I know?"
Melinda shrugged her shoulders and asked helplessly, but when she turned her head to look at the black steed, she exclaimed softly as if she had suddenly noticed something interesting.
"What's wrong?" Coulson, who heard the exclamation, quickly turned his head to look at Melinda.
Melinda looked a little surprised, and she pointed to the black steed that Coulson had noticed first, and said to him, "Coulson, look at this horse's eyes, is it looking at us?" ”
Quickly turning his head to look at the black horse, Coulson couldn't help but look at it carefully, and when he saw the black horse's inky eyes, Coulson couldn't help but feel that there seemed to be a hint of humanity in the horse's eyes.
It's just that although he felt it, Coulson still didn't believe it, thinking that he was just a sudden illusion, and responded with a slight frown and a very uncertain look: "Impossible, right?" How can a horse ......"
But before Coulson's words could be finished, a sudden voice took the lead in answering.
"May, you guessed right, it's really watching you."
I saw a hazy smoke suddenly appear in front of the two of them, and as the smoke slowly dissipated, Patch, dressed in a black wizard's robe, appeared in the eyes of the two.
"Mr. Myvis." Coulson seemed to have gotten fazed by Patch's sudden appearance, not showing anything out of the ordinary, but smiled and nodded at him.
Melinda on the side, although she was a little surprised, reacted instantly, and then nodded to Patch.
"Mr. Mevis, this horse ......"
After Patchy nodded in response, Melinda immediately reached out again to the black steed and asked Patch with a puzzled expression.
"This is a war horse belonging to another of my servants, and why did this horse look at you just now?"
As he spoke, Patch paused suddenly, then smiled again and answered for Melinda: "Because it has the same normal human intelligence as us, it is curious after seeing you two strangers, so it ......"
In the middle of his sentence, Patch suddenly stopped again, only this time he didn't continue to answer for the two of them, but gave Coulson and Melinda a "you all understand" look.
And Coulson and Melinda naturally knew the meaning of the half sentence that Patch didn't finish.
It's just that even though that's the case, after hearing Patch's answer, the two couldn't help but look surprised.
"Another servant? Steed? ”
I saw Coulson suddenly cry out in an extremely exaggerated voice, stared at Patch and asked in disbelief: "Mr. Mevis, are you sure you are not playing some game of European medieval knights?" ”
"War horses? In this day and age, there are still people who want to be those medieval knights? ”
Listening to Coulson's words, Patch couldn't help but smile, glanced at him meaningfully, and said slowly, "This servant of mine is not the ordinary knight you remember. ”
"Mr. Meyvis......"
After hearing Patch's answer, Coulson wanted to ask again, but as soon as he spoke, he was immediately interrupted by Patch.
I saw that Patch suddenly stretched out his hands and patted it vigorously, and said loudly: "Okay, let's not talk about this issue for now, you better go in with me first!" ”
With that, Patch turned and walked towards the tower in front of him, opened the heavy door with a wave of his robe, and stepped inside.
Coulson and Melinda looked at each other, hesitated for a moment, and then set off to follow.
…………
When the three of them walked into the tower one after another, Coulson and Melinda saw Patch stretch out his hand, and the candlesticks hanging in the four corners of the hall were suddenly lit, and the orange candlelight instantly brightened the dim hall.
Patch slowly walked over to the long table in the middle of the hall, pulled a chair and sat down, and poked out to the other vacant chairs beside him and said to Coulson and Melinda, "Please be seated." ”
Coulson and Melinda nodded slightly, and without any politeness, moved the two chairs beside Patch and sat down.
After seeing them sit down, Patch slowly turned his head to look at a man in a gray-brown robe hidden in the corner of the hall, and commanded, "Oriana, go and prepare two cups of tea for the two guests." ”
In the shadow of the corner, Oriana's drooping head slowly lifted, a pair of dark blue eyes quickly flickered twice, nodded to Patch, and responded, "Yes, master." ”
With that, Oriana sprang to her feet and walked briskly into a side door on the other side of the hall.
Within two minutes, the three people sitting around the long table saw Orianna, dressed in a gray robe, slowly walking up to the three of them with a tray, and Oriana lightly put the three cups of tea in the tray on the long table in front of the three, and motioned to Coulson and Melinda, "Please use it." ”
"Thank you." Coulson and Melinda picked up their teacups and nodded softly to Oriana.
Pache on the side reached out to take the teacup on the long table into his hand, lifted the lid, and took a sip, then raised his head to look at Coulson and Melinda, and asked with a chuckle: "Tell me, what are you doing this time?" ”
"Mr. Mevis, we are here for someone to ask you to come and help." Hearing Patch's question, Coulson hurriedly put the teacup he had just brought back to the long table, and quickly replied very directly.
"Emergency?"
