591 [Paladin]
Looking at the American-style man with a hip in front of him wearing the Stars and Stripes, even if he didn't say his name, Luo Wei knew who he was.
Steve Five-Five.
During the Battle of New York, Lowe noticed the American team and wanted to pull him to convert to the Light, but Loki died suddenly, leaving Lowe with no time to take care of him.
Just like in the original books, Steve Rogers, who can be recognized by Mjölnier, has a fearless heroic quality, and his white soul can be seen in the reckoning eyes of the paladin.
So far, apart from the horse-faced Thor, Steve is the only one with this trait.
Although the horse-faced Thor joined the Silver Hand, due to his responsibility of guarding Corbyn's homeland, he basically did not participate in the battles outside the Knights, and only mainly trained newcomers.
So if Steve joins the Knights, he will be the only Flawless Paladin active on the battlefield.
"I'm part of the Avengers now......" Steve hesitated.
In the past battle, he and Brunock quickly formed a deep friendship with his equally proficient shield skills. But he was already a member of the Avengers after all, which made him wonder if joining the Order would affect his duties as an Avenger.
Brunock said: "The nature of the Silver Hand is very similar to that of the Avengers, we are both forces that protect the Earth, and joining us will not prevent you from continuing to fight with other Avengers. ”
"More importantly, the Light will make you strong. Frankly speaking, your strength is still very weak now, a high-level demon can make you feel difficult, and the challenges we face in the future will be even more dangerous. ”
Steve naturally saw the power of the Holy Light, many members of the Silver Hand were ordinary people, and when fighting demons, these ordinary people could often show their strength no less than him with the blessing of the Holy Light.
Therefore, he undoubtedly yearns for the Holy Light, not only for the power of the Holy Light, but also for that holiness, just like the yearning of plants for the sun.
He thought for a moment, "What are the responsibilities of being your knight?" I guess I have to understand this first. ”
"The responsibility to fight, and the responsibility to pass on," Rowe said. The responsibilities of the former and the Avengers largely coincide, except that the Knights also need to deal with some cosmic threats. ”
"The responsibility of the Legacy means that each Paladin must train at least one newcomer to ensure the legacy of the Silver Hand."
After a pause, Rowe continued: "We welcome newcomers to join, especially newcomers like you...... Believe in the Light, Steve, and it will protect you. ”
Steve glanced at Brunock again, and finally nodded, "Okay, I'm willing to join the Knights." ”
"Welcome, young knight." Rowe smiled, then looked at his vibranium shield, "Do you want a stronger shield?" ”
"A stronger shield?" Steve was stunned, he felt that his shield was strong enough.
Rovi: "You can talk to Brunock, the Order's most outstanding defensive knight and a good blacksmith. ”
Brunock took out his shield and spun it in his palm: "This is the dragonman's shield." I can also reforge your shield into a Dragonman's Shield, making it stronger and having some of the attributes of a dragon. ”
The Dragonman's Shield is now basically standard for Defensive Knights, and most Defensive Knights will have one.
Steve's shield is sturdy, but it's made entirely of vibranium, and the craftsmanship isn't very sophisticated, and if it is reforged as a dragonman's shield, the sturdiness can be even better.
"Steve, you're a paladin?" Iron Man couldn't help but ask in surprise when he heard the news.
Steve nodded, "Yes, so I'm going to leave for a while and get baptized by the Light." ”
Tony Stark thought about it, and then leaned in and said, "Hmm...... Do you think I can be a paladin? ”
"You?" Steve's expression was a little strange, and then he said, "The Knights have some precepts that you may not be able to accept. ”
Tony: "What precept I can't do?" On the wagon? Quit smoking? ”
"It's not that strict, but at least, paladins won't be involved in ...... 'multiplayer sport.'" Steve didn't say it explicitly.
But as a master of time management, Tony naturally understands it: "Well, I don't want to be a paladin. ”
……
A few months later.
On the streets of New York at night, Steve Rogers walked down the street with his suitcase on the phone and on the phone, looking a little dusty.
In fact, it is true, he has just finished training in Antarctica, and with his excellent physical fitness, military skills and qualities, he has become a very good paladin in just a few months.
It may be difficult for others to see the change in him, but Steve himself knows that he has been reborn.
Back at his quarters, Steve frowned as soon as he entered the door, as if sensing something.
Immediately, golden light poured out of his eyes, pulsing like flames.
Eye of Reckoning!
Opening the Eye of Reckoning, Steve looked around and quickly confirmed his suspicion: someone had infiltrated his room.
Just behind the wall on the left, a man sat quietly in a chair.
However, judging from the reckoning color, this person should not be some kind of thief or Hydra agent or the like.
"Captain, is that you?" Just as Steve was thinking this, a somewhat weak voice rang out.
"Fury?" Steve was stunned, then hurried over, and sure enough, he saw Nick Fury.
The S.H.I.E.L.D. director looked bad, with a lot of blood on his body and a weak voice, as if he had just been through a bitter battle.
"What happened?" Steve stepped forward, his hands glowing holy.
"You...... Have you become a paladin? Fury said in surprise as he felt the injury healing quickly.
"Yes. What the hell happened and how did you end up like this? Steve asked again.
Fury: "S.H.I.E.L.D. is controlled by the enemy, and I don't have many people to trust right now, but I'm glad you're back......"
At this moment, Steve's expression changed, and he hurriedly stretched out a shield of holy light.
"Bang!"
A gunshot rang out, and bullets flew through the window, just in time to be blocked by the shield of light.
Steve then throws his shield with a backhand, and the Eye of Reckoning allows him to accurately spot enemies hiding outside the walls.
The vibranium dragon's shield passed through the window and made a turn, striking the enemy right in the side.
With great force, the enemy was knocked into the air, and Steve climbed out of the window to see a masked man fleeing from the rooftop.
The man's left hand is a mechanical arm, but it appears to have been damaged by the impact with the Dragonman's Shield, and it is leaking electricity from time to time, bursting into small arcs of electricity.
