Chapter 330: A Gentleman's Agreement
"You didn't force him to stay, which is very gentlemanly. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info" Tolkien looked at Logan's distant figure, turned sideways and whispered to Zhao Mai, "But after all, you can be regarded as letting go of a prisoner." β
"Those who have not been convicted are called suspects, not prisoners. Besides, I didn't open the cage, did I? You should say that I saved the life of the guard, and there is a big difference between sleeping and not waking up. Following the direction of Zhao Mai's finger, Tolkien saw the two soldiers who came out touching their heads, completely unaware of what was happening, and were looking around blankly.
"I first learned about magicians, and now I hear about mutants, and it seems that the world is not as ordinary as it seems. Mike, do you think it's possible that a world war is not the will of humanity, but something more powerful?"
"I can't tell. If you look at the nature of greed, hatred, and murder as a more powerful force, then the answer is yes. Zhao Mai then shook his head: "Do you remember what Grindelwald said, he wants to find a way to end this war of mankind." In this tone, the world war is a matter for ordinary humans, at least wizards don't intervene. How did you meet Grindelwald?"
"We were pen pals, we were in touch before I joined the army, when I was studying at Oxford. He was interested in the study of ancient English and the evolution of ancient European languages, and gave me some manuscripts that I could translate or decipher. Now that I think about it, he was actually studying magic at that time. β
"Well, it is quite possible that magic spells are also a language used by people, and they are bound to change with the evolution of the humanities. However, it's really hard to imagine a mage's world hidden around your usual living environment, and you never even notice it. β
"I might have a hard time imagining, but you shouldn't, right? I've seen you cast a spell with my own eyes! Isn't it amazing to be able to make a person float?"
"More than a year ago, like you, I had no idea there was anything like this. Zhao Mai said: "In just one year, I had a car and mastered some magical powers, and even Ado and Duojian were found in this year. β
"It's only been a year, I really envy you. Tolkien said, "But it's okay, I'm about to start my own magical journey!
Although they were impatient, they waited patiently for three days before Tolkien could complete his interview at the camp before they could officially set off. The world war was still going on, and Tolkien's family was still in Oxford, and he didn't want to be a deserter because he couldn't wait two or three days. On the day he left, many soldiers who had a good relationship with him came to see him off, but many more people cast nostalgic glances at Dojian. She received a lot of gifts, all of which eventually turned into flowers. "theγ»che" is full of flowers, perfumes, and chocolates, and the reserve doesn't like such a strong and complicated smell, and he sneezes every once in a while.
They drove their car, and not long after leaving the barracks, they were stopped on the road. Logan didn't know where he got the French military uniform, the blue slit pants and blouse obviously didn't fit, a few buttons were missing, and chest hair peeked through the gaps in the clothes. With a slender cigar in his mouth, he took a puff of cigarette and said, "I want a ride, wherever you go." β
"Smoking is not allowed in the carriage. Zhao Mai rolled down the window and pointed to the car door: "Come up from the right rear door." β
"Wow, why is it so big on the inside, much bigger than it looks on the outside, and how did you do that?"
"Magic. Zhao Mai glanced behind him and said to Rogan: "Warn you in advance, don't harass others, especially Duo Jian, you know?"
"It turns out that this beautiful lady's name is Dogian, what a beautiful name. He picked a flower that belonged to a small flower, and ran straight to Dogian to offer his courtesy, "I'm James Logan Howlett, just call me Logan, and I'm willing to serve you." What does this beautiful name mean?"
"A curved dagger designed to pierce the back of the head, an assassin weapon, ferocious but beautiful. Zhao Mai said: "Her brain has been traumatized, and your method is useless to her." Tell me Logan, are you waiting for me?"
"Yes and no. Logan shook his head, "You heard you're going to hire me, and I'm out of money right now." As long as you don't let me do any experiments, I don't mind making your money. β
"Then you don't mind going to the UK?" Zhao Mai shook his head when he saw him, so he handed over the driving position to Xiaohua and Ado. "I'll tell you the truth, I'd love to know the secret of your ability to heal and regenerate, because I can tell that you've lived for a long time, but your body is still young and healthy, right?"
Logan nodded: "I'm 86 now. β
"Oh my God, you don't look like you're 86 at all, but you're in your twenties, thirty at most!" Tolkien exclaimed.
"I went to England as a kid, so I might know your grandfather!" Logan snorted, "I'm old enough to be your grandfather!"
"Your body is young, but your mind is not, and I see you telepathically as an old fellow. I don't deny that I'm interested in longevity and eternal life, but I promise I won't do anything against your will or hurt you. Zhao Mai sat opposite Logan and said to him very sincerely: "Sooner or later, but sooner or later, one thing will happen, that is, you will become the object of study because of your immortality and self-healing." Your secrets will be unearthed, as will your weaknesses. I can see at a glance the shortcomings that you can't float in the air and develop targeted tactics, who knows what your enemies will do?I won't force you to do anything, but others will. I can help you if you want. I learn from you, and in exchange, you learn from me. I have a thought: You're 86 years old now, you're going to live, and when you reach 300, 500, or 1,000, will your brain be able to carry so many memories? I've always wondered, if your brain decides to heal itself to its original state, how much memory do you have left?"
Hearing this, Logan suddenly fell silent, his brow furrowed tightly, his eyes moving from side to side. It can be seen that he is hesitant, his strong palms close and release, and the sound of a strong heartbeat can be captured without a stethoscope. "I ...... I did forget some things, and I didn't know what I did for a long time. Do you have a way for me to revisit something from the past?"
"I can't guarantee memories of the past, but I can teach you an ability called a psychic ability that allows you to preserve your memories in the void of nothingness, even if you blow up to ashes. Zhao Mai said to Logan: "The power I made you float in the air is the psychic ability. β
"I have seen some people with special abilities, mutants, whose powers can only be used by themselves, and others can't learn them. This ......"
"I told you, I'm not a mutant, and my abilities are learned. Zhao Mai stretched out his hand in front of Logan and said with a smile: "We learn from each other, this is an agreement between gentlemen, how about it?"
Logan thought for a moment and shook his hand. (To be continued.) )
