Chapter 26 Tony Is Hooked!
"Daniel, what are you going to eat today?"
Early in the morning, Jing Kong, who had finished his daily routine morning classes, stretched, and habitually went to the second floor to ask Daniel about today's food.
"Ok?"
Jing Kong, who didn't get a response, turned his head and looked towards the window. In the past, the seat where Daniel sat cross-legged was empty today.
Seeing this, Jing Kong seemed a little surprised.
Daniel is an out-and-out ascetic, his daily life is the same, and he is extremely self-disciplined.
Meditating here every day is the homework he has never stopped since he became a holy place magician. Today...how about people?
"Daniel?"
With a tentative cry, Jing Kong raised his eyebrows, turned his head and went downstairs, walked through the long corridor, and strolled towards the back of the main hall.
Just after passing through the corridor, there was a ripple in the portal leading to Kamar-Taj, and Daniel walked out of it.
"Jing Kong magician?" Looking at Jing Kong who suddenly appeared in front of him, Daniel was stunned.
"Daniel, the mentor summoned you... What happened?" Seeing Daniel returning from Kamar-Taj, Jing Kong could not help but frown.
"No!" Daniel shook his head lightly: "Every six months, all the holy place magicians will be summoned, mainly to maintain the formations of the three holy places, and nothing unexpected happened."
"It's fine!" Jing Kong nodded slightly to express his understanding, the mentor of Ancient One hadn't really told him about this thing before...
Or, is it because he has no idea of being a holy place magician at all, so the Ancient One mentor didn't say anything?
Probably so!
Jing Kong didn't intend to get entangled, and directly put aside the topic: "There is almost nothing in the refrigerator. I plan to go out for a while. Do you need me to bring something?"
"Food?" Daniel also understood why Jing Kong came to him: "You decide, I'm not picky about food, just keep it simple."
"That's fine, I won't bother you, Daniel, go ahead, I'm going out first!"
After the words fell, Jing Kong turned and left directly.
Although I knew it might be the answer, it is still necessary to confirm, and the most basic interpersonal relationship cannot be lost.
After all, if there are no accidents in the next few years, he and Daniel will have to get along for a long time.
You can't meet without saying a word, right?
Then you have to suffocate?
Passing through the hall, just as he was about to reach out to open the door, a black shadow suddenly appeared outside the door.
Boom~boom~boom~
Hearing the knock on the door, Jing Kong narrowed his eyes, and then directly opened the door.
"Eh..." Tony, who stretched out his hand in the air, was stunned: "Hi... are you waiting for me on purpose?"
"No~" Jing Kong turned slightly sideways: "I was planning to go out to sell some things, but you came a little faster than I expected, and you also brought a few tails."
"..." Tony's eyes froze slightly, without turning his head, he walked into the room silently.
Jing Kong gently closed the door, the corners of his mouth curled up, and he turned to Tony and said, "I reckon those people are not you."
"It's really not." Tony looked around for a while, and said with great interest: "This looks like an old antique shop...the decoration taste is very bad."
"You drove it?"
"Obviously not!" Jing Kong shook his head slightly.
Tony turned his head slightly: "The history here is long, and the numbers that can be found have surprised me. The ones that can't be found may be even longer. Don't you have anything to say to me?"
"You did your homework well." Jing Kong looked Tony up and down in front of him, and then said, "It doesn't look like you're here to ask for help."
"I'm a genius." Tony said proudly.
"Genius? Too conceited?"
Jing Kong curled his lips, and said mercilessly, "You are so conceited that you were so conceited that you were betrayed and almost lost your life?"
"..." Tony's face froze, and the dim light in his eyes flickered: "It seems that you know a lot, how much can I buy what I want from you?"
"Buy?" Jing Kong was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "What do you want to buy from me? Information? Technology? Or Ability?"
"For me now, money is the most useless thing. What do you want to get from me? The price...you can't afford it for the time being."
Money...maybe you will need it at the moment of time travel, but now, money is just a string of numbers to Jing Kong, and it is useless except for daily expenses.
When one's own Ability is strong enough to a certain extent, apart from certain conceptual things, is there any substance that cannot be obtained?
Tony's proposal may be an irresistible temptation for most people, but for Jing Kong at this moment, it really has no attraction at all.
Hmm... If you trade it with a set of Mark armor and a new Ark reactor, it's about the same.
Jing Kong would like to try to see if these items with "Protagonist Luck" can bring special bonuses when they are synthesized.
If it's really useful, then...you don't have to try hard to blackmail this group of 'protagonists'.
Listening to Jing Kong's words, a look of surprise appeared on Tony's face next to him, and then his brows frowned.
The other party doesn't want money, is it because there is no clear figure, or... really treat money like dirt?
Such a person really exists?
Or, the other party seeks something beyond money in himself...
"So..." Thinking about it, Tony's eyes flashed: "What do you want from me? Or... what do you want to achieve through me?"
"If you insist on saying yes, that's okay." Jing Kong didn't even intend to hide it, and said the truth directly: "Or my original purpose is actually this."
"If you're right, your Mark II armor should have just been approved and you haven't started specific research and development, right? My condition is also very simple. I want a pair of each model of your Mark series armor."
"This can be regarded as a transaction. As the other party to the transaction, I will give you a condition that cannot be refused."
"Definitely, I can give you the information I mentioned before for free. Anyway, even if I don't tell you, you will definitely know it in the future."
"You really dare to open your mouth like a lion!" Tony laughed, and the only gleam of interest in his eyes disappeared.
"Let's talk about my conditions." Jing Kong slightly raised his left hand, and the Tektronix armor was instantly activated.
A group of nanoparticles swarmed out from the imprint on the left wrist, quickly completing the combination.
"..."
Looking at the transformed Tektronix armor in front of him, Tony's eyes widened.
