Chapter 440: A Justified Lie
Li Kang held his breath, he didn't want to run away like this, but he couldn't say anything about the situation of his alliance with Doctor Doom, he couldn't say it if he was killed, his eyes turned to Mabel again, and he immediately had a way in his heart, "You two are so reckless, and you don't want to think about it, what are we doing when we go up the mountain, and others don't say it, what should Mabel do?" She is injured now, and she is only a church nun, and she still has some experience in exorcism and healing, and when it comes to fighting, she has no ability to protect herself at all, do you still want to involve her again?"
Goyle and Doctor Strange looked at each other, and they couldn't help but nod.
Now that the words have been said to this point, it is not Li Kang's style to not beat a rake, he rolled his eyes, and decided to start with Doctor Strange first, "Obviously, these people are coming for you, because you are a magician, just the flying cloak on your body can make that group of magicians kill you, but you are so alert that you even took Mabel away, don't you know, how many magicians are eyeing this mountain now?"
"....." Doctor Strange was speechless for a while, indeed what Li Kang said was not unreasonable, it was that he was too nervous, last night on this holy mountain, like a battlefield, he listened to it in his ears, and saw the tragic situation through his peep, why did he forget it all when it was daylight? blame himself for wanting to make a good impression on Mabel too much, which led to the attack on the two.
"I'm sorry, it's all my fault.," Doctor Strange said bitterly.
Seeing that Doctor Strange had been subdued, Li Kang turned the finger to Goyle again, "I told you before, let you do a good job of reconnaissance, and we must have a preparation process before the enemy appears, but what have you done? Fight dinosaurs, steal dinosaur eggs, you don't realize the seriousness of tense at all, we are now in the center of the biggest magic war since the Apocalypse Era, there must be a sense of tension, my comrade!"
Goyle showed a look of shame on his face, he repeatedly admitted his mistake, "This is my negligence, you see that I am like this, it is too negligent, I swear, I will never be so ashamed again in the future, you look at my performance, if I start to mess around again, you will whip me hard, with a branch or something, hit me hard, I admit it!"
"We want to flee now, because the current situation is very unfavorable to us, and the ones who come to trouble us this time are Jack and Chloe," Li Kang felt that it would definitely not work to hide it like this, and he must let everyone know a little bit about the situation," I had a past with Chloe back then, she still hates me to the core, I know Chloe's character, although she is not bad in nature, but she also has a ruthless side, and Jack is an agent of Hydra, and the people of Hydra have always wanted to kidnap Mabel, so this time it is estimated that they are coming for Mabel, so the poisoning is not absolutely fatal. ”
The first half of this is still true, and by the time it comes to Mabel, it is complete nonsense.
However, the rest of the people present, of course, could not tell the difference, but Mabel asked with some curiosity, "I don't understand this, why would they want to kidnap me? We don't have a feud with Hydra." ”
Mabel's father, as the richest man in Brazil, is also an eight-sided figure, but recently, he has been harassed by unknown bandits, and these people are highly skilled, so Mabel did not directly reprimand Li Kang for talking nonsense, but wanted to hear Li Kang's explanation.
Li Kang took out the tin iron wine jug and poured it violently, now he needs to play his storytelling skills, this lie must be made up round, "In fact, this is also the information I got from the special intelligence network, you may or may not know, now that the red skull has appeared again, this person is a big devil." ”
Everyone was taken aback, because the Axis powers of World War II, in the modern world cognition, are equivalent to the existence of the public enemy of the world, and the most terrifying of them is the big devil with a red skull - Red Skull!
There are a lot of rumors about this boss, even more than his old enemy Captain America, in various film and television works, anime cartoons, video games and Hollywood movies, Red Skull always appears as the final boss, in many countries, he has the magical effect of making children stop crying.
I often see a child who is disobedient, and his mother will scare him like this: You cry again, you make trouble, cry again, and let the red skeleton take you away at night to do experiments!
This is the impression given by the Red Skull, if the Hydra side uses the Red Skull as a spiritual totem, then in the normal world, the Red Skull is the existence of the enemy of the whole people.
So whether it's the Russian Gower, or the Brazilian Mabel, or the American Doctor Strange, when they heard that the Red Skull had been born again, they were all shocked, and deep in their hearts, the most secret fear actually appeared again, and everyone was shocked.
"That.... The Red Skull came out to make trouble again, what does this have to do with our family?" Mabel couldn't help but ask rhetorically.
The following words are very critical, Li Kang had already thought of a set of rhetoric when he was drinking just now, " You don't know this, in fact, the Red Skull wants to rule Hydra again, and then start his dream of dominating the world again, but if he wants to do this, he must first recruit a team of his own, in order to feed an elite soldier, then the most basic thing is to need money, you produce gold at home, you know, the Nazis are very obsessed with gold, so they set their sights on the major gold mines, and your family is just one of the many targets they harass. ”
These words are reasonable, Li Kang himself has to believe it, Mabel is even more convinced, she nodded and said, "That's right, it's that the situation in our family is really urgent, so I just wanted to come here in Nepal, because I knew that there would be a grandest magic conference here, I thought that coming here, I would definitely be able to recruit powerful magicians, but I didn't expect it to be such a dangerous horror conference." ”
Li Kang blinked, he knew that Mabel was a confused eldest lady, but what he said just now was a little subtle, he asked, "After a long time, you didn't know that this was the Supreme Mage Selection Conference, so how did you know that there would be a magic conference here? Don't say that you received a notice, with your little magic, the Three Good Gods of Shandar can't look down on it." ”
Mabel bowed his head shyly and said, "I listened to the archbishop of our diocese, so I sneaked out. ”
Li Kang finally figured it out, he felt that Mabel would appear here, it was a very strange thing, it turned out to be eavesdropping on other people's words, and then he secretly ran over on his own, this kind of confused way of dealing with it really has her style, this is not nonsense, ordinary people can't make up such stupid lies.
Goyle said in a lost voice, "So that's the case, then you plan to hire me, does that still count?"
Without waiting for Mabel to speak, Li Kang said impatiently, "Can you have a longer brain? Didn't Mabel just say? She came here to hire a magician, of course her agreement with you still counts, you are now someone's bodyguard, can you have a long heart?"
"That's good, that's good. Goyle finally found a suitable job, of course he had to pay attention, but he actually still remembered the winery.
"Then let's not waste any more time, now pack up our things, let's make a battle plan," Doctor Strange calmly proposed, "We have four people now, and the enemy has at least a hundred, it's not easy to break through, that puppet is a huge trouble, and since the enemy's target is Mabel, then we must protect her, and we must not let her make any mistakes." ”
Li Kang thought that at this time, it was very necessary to formulate a battle plan, and on the opposite side, the puppet was overcoming obstacles and getting closer and closer to here.
