When his father was young, he earned great military honors in MIB with his superb martial arts and Qi magic.
He was also a natural advocate, believing that birth, aging, sickness, and death were things people should experience. Therefore, he did not inject strengthening agents like his comrades from the same period.
Perhaps having experienced too much, his father grew tired of life in MIB. After retirement, just like in the original story, he opened an antique shop to enjoy family life.
He remembered his father saying before he left that if MIB ever needed him, he could return at any time.
Lin Luo always couldn't help but chat for a few words when he suddenly met his old friend of many years.
"Lao Cheng, didn't you go to sell antiques? Why are you here?" Lin Luo asked.
His father awkwardly glanced at Ancient One and said, "I found Kamar-Taj in ancient texts and suddenly became interested in magic other than Qi magic. I came here to see if these old bones can still handle the strain."
"You're just stubborn! There's such an easy way to regain youth, but you won't use it. You insist on dragging those old bones out to exert yourself. Do you think you're still the same Lao Cheng who chased hundreds of orcs with a lightsaber back then?"
Lin Luo was a little angry.
He hated seeing his subordinates not doing well!
The rigid rules of MIB deprived all members of their freedom. Therefore, Lin Luo, as the Boss, made sure to be as lenient and accommodating as possible in terms of their personal lives.
His father was one of those stubborn old men with fixed mindsets!
What birth, aging, sickness, and death? Nonsense! It's better to live a bad life than to die well! What's more, to live comfortably?
According to Lin Luo's old temper, he would have gone over and kicked his father a couple of times to vent his anger.
Now, he couldn't even vent his anger. His father was so emaciated that if he kicked him twice, he'd probably have to rush to find "Death," one of the five creator gods, to get him back!
"Haha, I think my current life is also good; it can temper my disposition," his father said with a smile.
"Is it really good?" Lin Luo narrowed his eyes.
"Mm." His father smiled and nodded, replying earnestly, "It's really good."
Good?
Good my foot!
He had been assigned to do odd jobs here for a week!
That bald woman said something about... tempering his irritable personality.
He was nearly eighty this year and still needed to temper his character? If it weren't for learning magic, he would have run over and given that bald head three or four smacks!
"Forget it, I'm too lazy to care about you like this." Lin Luo looked at Ancient One and asked, "Have you taught him magic?"
Ancient One shook her head. She didn't know his father was once a member of MIB, but that had nothing to do with her.
"He has a good foundation, and his comprehension is also genius, but his disposition still needs tempering."
"Once he can calmly handle all sorts of problems, I will skip most parts and directly impart to him the essence of the book of vishanti."
Even though his father already had one foot in the grave, Ancient One's evaluation of him was still quite high.
The book of vishanti is the pinnacle of White magic, a natural counter to the Darkhold of Black magic.
If his father could fully grasp its essence, it's no exaggeration to say that he would definitely have the strength to fight Dormammu or the berserk Scarlet Witch to the death!
Unfortunately, Lin Luo, this "stingy" former Boss, decided to make things a bit difficult for his former subordinate.
"I agree with your idea of tempering him, but this level of intensity is clearly not enough. Let him sweep the streets outside for two years, then consider whether to teach him magic."
"Two... two years?!"
Upon hearing this, his father's face immediately turned dark purple. He threw down the broom and cursed, "Hey, are you trying to mess with your old man?"
"Don't provoke your old man, otherwise, even if you're the Boss, your old man will teach you a lesson!"
"Oh ho." Lin Luo immediately became energized. To be honest, having lived so many years and having so many agents under him, only this guy dared to talk back to him.
He was like this even before he retired, and he immediately cursed:
"Who are you calling 'old man' all the time? Don't forget, I'm older than you! If I give you face, I call you Lao Cheng; if I don't give you face, you're just an old geezer!"
"What?! You called your old man an old geezer!" His father rolled up his sleeves and aggressively stepped forward.
"Do you want to try your old man's fists? Don't forget, your punches and kicks were taught by your old man. Don't look at how old your old man seems, but his fists aren't old! If you don't believe me, let's compare."
"See, you explode at the slightest provocation. How can you learn magic with such a mindset? Might as well expel you from the sect!" Lin Luo retorted without showing any weakness.
The two "old men" thus bickered back and forth like children arguing.
Wong and Mordo were terrified by this scene.
At first, they thought he was just a grumpy old man, but they never expected him to dare to argue with that terrifying guy!
Although they kept cursing, they didn't actually come to blows, which showed that their relationship was indeed very good.
Natasha and Catwoman were amused by such a Boss.
It was the first time they saw the Boss flustered, and honestly... the old man's expression while arguing was strangely cute.
However, this "harmonious" atmosphere did not last long... Boom!
The Sanctum Sanctorum's door was blasted open from the outside.
A muscular man, resembling a governor, holding an electromagnetic cannon, walked into the temple expressionlessly.
Almost the instant the door exploded, his father, who had just been arguing, moved at a speed far exceeding Natasha and Catwoman, shielding the Boss.
By the time Natasha and Catwoman, the two drivers and bodyguards, came to their senses, his father had already taken up his stance.
Arguments aside, quarrels aside.
When crisis struck, the old man was as reliable as ever.
"Terminator T-x4090 mission report."
"Target Lin Luo, locked."
The moment the Terminator saw Lin Luo, its hands liquefied, centered around the electromagnetic gun, and quickly reassembled into a super-large battery cannon.
Natasha immediately used the Chip to read the information of this muscular man.
"Boss, the power of his weapon in one shot is enough to destroy the entire United States!"
Saying that, Natasha and Catwoman pulled out atomic energy pistols and simultaneously aimed at the muscular man's head.
Ancient One also held a magic spell, ready at any moment to open the Mirror World and absorb the first wave of attack.
Only Lin Luo said nothing, made no moves, just stared intently at the governor who could transform into an electromagnetic cannon.
Future warrior?
This World also mixed in the Terminator's worldview?
Then Skynet was... Swoosh!
Boom!
A lightsaber suddenly pierced the chest of the Terminator T-x4090, which was gathering energy.
The lightsaber cut it in half from top to bottom, and then detonated it, blowing it into pieces.
After a ground-shaking explosion, a sexy girl in leather, wearing an arcane artifact, with two strands of bangs on her forehead, walked out of the remaining flames.
The girl let out a long breath, took off her sunglasses, and revealed a sunny and carefree smile.
"Ugh! Finally made it!"
"Oh, what a coincidence, his father is here too!"
Jackie... Chan... Jade!
Lin Luo: "???"
