Chapter 245. Under A Spell

"Who are you?"

S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Helicarrier, main control room.

Looking at the scruffy Daoist in front of him, Fury asked with a heavy tone.

Although, from the conversation with Tony, he already knew that the other party was from Peng Lai, Fury still needed to find out the other party's true identity and, of course, abilities.

That ability to fly with a gourd reminded Fury of the information about Peng Lai he had in S.H.I.E.L.D. According to the clues from Ip Man, it seemed that among Peng Lai's people, only immortals had the ability to fly without any technological help. From this point of view, this oddly dressed man in front of him was probably another immortal from Peng Lai.

Guessing the other party's possible identity, Fury's expression couldn't help but solidify for a few moments.

Having seen the power of Peng Lai's [Master Roshi], S.H.I.E.L.D. was naturally cautious when faced with the possibility of another Peng Lai immortal before them.

"I..." The [Drunken Sword Immortal] raised an eyebrow in response to Fury's question and smacked his lips with a carefree expression, "I'm just an idle Daoist who likes to drink and have fun."

Tony's eyes were fixed on the [Drunken Sword Immortal] in front of him, or rather the gourd in the other person's hand. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed it. The item used to fly by the other party before was just a sort of bottle containing wine. It felt as if someone had told him that he could also fly on a red wine bottle.

The contrast was even more shocking to Tony than seeing the other man flying through the air on a wine gourd.

"His attire is really odd."

Looking at the [Drunken Sword Immortal], which didn't stop drinking in front of him, Thor couldn't help but raise an eyebrow and whisper.

He completely forgot that judging by clothes alone, they were both odd.

Silently withdrawing his gaze from Thor, Steve looked at the [Drunken Sword Immortal] and asked the question that was on everyone's mind.

"If that's the case, why are you sitting on ..." The gourd in the [Drunken Sword Immortal]'s hand seemed familiar to Steve, who, for a moment, had difficulty matching it to the one he had in mind. He didn't really know what the gourd in the [Drunken Sword Immortal]'s hand was, for an American from the last century.

"You mean this wine gourd."

Noting the hesitation on Steve's face, the [Drunken Sword Immortal] took another sip of wine and casually responded.

"... sitting on your wine gourd and appearing near S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Helicarrier?"

Then with the help of the [Drunken Sword Immortal], Steve asked.

"Captain, you really should update your knowledge. Otherwise, the only people you can talk to are people in nursing homes." Unsurprisingly, Tony didn't hesitate to crack a joke at Steve's embarrassing question.

"Is there anything you don't know, Mr. Stark?"

Steve may be good-natured, but that didn't mean he didn't have a temper, especially with Tony fidgeting around and issuing taunts.

"... Hmmm... No, I don't think so." In the face of Steve's comeback, Tony, on the other hand, casually replied with arrogance.

However, before Steve could fight back, Tony spread out his hand and said, "I can look up anything with the push of a button, Captain. This is a different world nowadays."

"What is a gourd?"

On one side, Steve and Tony were bickering back and forth with each other, while on the other, Thor continued to wear a bewildered expression as he asked Banner, who was beside him.

The crowd had forgotten that in addition to Captain America, who had been asleep for nearly 70 years and out of touch with the times, the Avengers had an alien deity who was completely ignorant of Earth's items.

Frowning and glancing at Nick Fury with a bit of a headache, Natasha had to speak up and remind them, "Gentlemen, aren't we getting a little off-topic?"

Hearing Natasha's reminder, Tony and Steve stopped their pointless argument somewhat abruptly, looked at each other silently, and turned their attention back to the [Drunken Sword Immortal].

What left them speechless was that, in the midst of all the bickering, the [Drunken Sword Immortal], the person in question, was still drinking from his gourd as if he had no concerns. It gave the crowd the impression that what was happening on the airship wasn't as appealing as the wine in the gourd in his hand.

Unless Ryan deactivated his [Drunken Sword Immortal] clone that had been infused with a B-level card, there was no way for anyone to see the slightest flaw in his body.

"Now, can you tell us what you're up to, Immortal of Peng Lai?" Silently gazing at the [Drunken Sword Immortal], who kept drinking wine, Fury resumed his questioning.

On the side, Agent Hill stared at the gourd in the other party's hand with a strange expression.

It was because the amount of wine the [Drunken Sword Immortal] had drank since a while ago had far exceeded the possible volume of the gourd in his hand, but the gourd in his hand showed no sign of being emptied.

"Looks like the Old Turtle has told you guys quite a bit."

Hearing Fury address him, the [Drunken Sword Immortal] subconsciously stopped drinking. He lifted his head and burped loudly, smacking his lips, devoid of any immortal-like appearance. He then replied with a drunken look in his eyes, "I knew it, that old pervert is unreliable. Once he sees a woman, he can't control his mind."

[Drunken Sword Immortal] righteously criticized Master Roshi, ignoring the fact that he wasn't any better.

Natasha looked at the drunken-looking [Drunken Sword Immortal] in front of her and remembered the [Master Roshi] she had met before and felt that these immortals from Peng Lai were always a bit outside of their expectations. However, despite the other party's drunken appearance, there was no hint of relief in Natasha's mind.

In the past, the experience with Master Roshi had clearly shown her that immortals were a group of powerful beings far beyond their imagination.

Even though how off-key they usually acted, all of them were no less dangerous than Thor in terms of their dangerous prowess.

Thor: "?"

After burping, he glanced at the Avengers and the others in front of him. The [Drunken Sword Immortal] casually replied, "It's nothing really; something happened in Peng Lai. Someone was under the spell of a guy called Lord Godless and stole an item from Peng Lai that was used to seal the Heavenly Demon."

"Lord Godless?!"
