37. New troubles have arisen

"Hey, hey, man."

The vibranium longsword Buster's sharp blade is against the alien Jack. Gibbs's neck, the danger of being cut off at any time, made the unsightly alien immediately raise his hand.

He stammered to Merlin:

"Calm down... Shall you take this thing away? ”

"Yes."

Merlin said casually:

"You tell me the answer I want first, who did you sell the gun to?"

"I don't remember!"

The alien screamed:

"Whoever bought it, it was a long time ago... I haven't sold that type of weapon lately, and there are very few people who can find this place, and even fewer people who know that I sell weapons here... I mean, give me some time, I can look up the ledger. ”

"Bang"

The door of the pawnshop was pushed open, and J, who had barely recovered, pushed the door in, and saw the tense scene in front of him, he hurriedly stepped forward, reached out and pressed Merlin's wrist, and said:

"What's going on? Did it provoke you? ”

"It's not just about provoking."

Merlin looked at the trembling alien in front of him, he withdrew his sword, and said to J:

"This guy sold weapons to some crazy scientists, I just dealt with the trouble they caused before, I can tell you responsibly, J, this guy is not as honest as you think, I suspect that it may have sold some alien technology to that organization..."

Merlin looked back at Jack the Alien and said:

"Am I right?"

"I didn't!"

Ugly Jack. Gibbs subconsciously shook his head in denial.

But the next moment, Merlin saw J take out a silver, non-muzzle, only a jewel-like light focuser pistol from his pocket, and hold it against Jack's head.

J asked with a serious face:

"Jack, there's an agreement between us! We can tolerate you playing the smuggling game, but alien technology... This kind of thing is forbidden! You bastard, is he telling the truth? ”

"No, it's not! Hell, it's not! ”

The creature screamed, and the muscles in its face began to contort.

"Bang"

Without hesitation, J shot the alien's head in front of Merlin, spilling disgusting green liquid everywhere.

"I appreciate your decisiveness."

Merlin leaned against the counter, he looked at the headless corpse that was still twitching, and he said to J:

"But you killed it, where are we going to find a memory restorer?"

"Killed? No. ”

J put away his pistol and said to Merlin:

"There's another reason why we're compromising with this bastard Jack... It is a race that is almost impossible to kill. ”

Before Merlin's eyes, Jack. Gibbs's headless corpse staggered to its feet, a rapidly growing mass of sarcoma swelling over its wound, and in a matter of seconds, the sarcoma was like a blown balloon, reverting to the ugly head of the alien before it was the alien.

It's like the magic of being a scary.

"Hell! Do you know how much it hurts? ”

Jack screamed like a grumpy hamster.

The next moment, it was pointed at a red wand, a dangerous cloud of green energy that terrified Jack wrapped around the wand like a twisted and sinuous snake, Merlin whispered:

"Can't you really kill it? Is it the immortality of the body or the immortality of the soul? ”

"I'm curious, will this magic that acts directly on the soul kill you completely here? Want to give it a try? Jack..."

"No!"

The alien took a step back, and it looked at J as if asking for help, and it screamed:

"Keep this madman away from me, you want a memory restorer? That thing was in the basement, but don't blame me for not warning you, it hasn't been turned on in a long time... It's an old antique I got from the people of Kiaaron. ”

"And the alien technology you sold..."

Merlin said unrelentingly:

"Tell me everything!"

"I would have liked to reject them outright!"

Alien Jack screams:

"But they gave too much money... I can't refuse. Okay, okay, I'll admit it, I did sell some stuff to some people I didn't know, but definitely not as much as you might think. ”

"What did you sell?"

J asked:

"Is there a technology of mass destruction?"

"No, there isn't."

Jack Says:

"I'm not stupid, what's in it for me to destroy the planet? I'd be hard-pressed to find another place in the stars that is so free. ”

He said:

"Those people are very interested in energy aggregation technology, they bought a technology from me to make a third-level civilization energy source, that was a few years ago, and as for the gun, it was a side product of that transaction."

"Level 3 Civilization Energy!"

J slapped the counter with some anger and said:

"You're crazy! Jack, the earth is now a first-class civilization! You've sold something that's more than 300 years old in our technology! Do you know what the consequences are? ”

"Wait."

Merlin was listening to J and Jack's exchange when he suddenly interjected:

"What does the finished product of that energy source look like? Is it the size of a Rubik's cube? It glows orange and feels a little cold to the touch, like an ice cube? ”

"Yes!"

Jack turned his head to look at Merlin, and said:

"That's the Monarchians' replication of the legendary Cosmic Cube, and it's also the energy source for their unmanned fleet, it's a very complete and mature technology, as long as that gang doesn't throw it into the sun, that thing won't explode easily... Dear J, believe me, I also love the earth, and you see, I even went through the transfer of domicile at the immigration office..."

The guy scrambled to take out an ID card from his pocket and said to an angry J

"I'm an earthling, too. For everyone's sake, can you let me go? Just this once... I'll repay you! I swear! ”

"You've got to go to it. B's Question! ”

J threw down something with a blank face, and he said to Jack the alien:

"You can't open any more stores until the results of the inquiry are in! Jack... If you make a big mistake this time, Z will definitely be angry. If K is still here..."

"He's definitely going to let me get off Earth on the nearest ship."

Jack breathed a sigh of relief, and the fellow said curtly:

"Maybe I'll be glad that the famous Agent K has retired... Okay, follow me, I'll take you to activate the memory restorer. ”

The alien who escaped reached out and pushed open the door to the basement, and he took Merlin and J, as well as the manipulated Gordon, all the way into the basement.

There sat a large, rusty thing that looked like some kind of strange construction debris, gathered in a strange shape with interlaced iron bars, and in the center of those bars was a worn-out chair fastened there with wire and rivets.

The thing is connected to a computer by intricate wires, and its power source is a dismantled yacht engine.

It's like some steel trash made by some hippie after drinking too much, and it smells of uninhibited steampunk all over its body.

In other words, the impression that this thing gives to Merlin is quite unreliable.

"Uh, don't care."

Jack turned on the computer with his hands and feet, and said to the person behind him:

"It's a bit miserable, but trust me, it's still great, and I've helped many people restore it before... Uh, none of that matters, I mean, it definitely works! ”

"Let the eyeless friend sit on it."

The alien said to Merlin behind him while tapping on the characters Merlin couldn't understand:

"You'd better pray that he doesn't get seasick, and besides, there's nothing I can do if he gets dizzy."

Merlin manipulated Gordon to sit in the center of the twisted mass of steel, and Jack held his body firmly to the chair with a retaining strip and shoved something resembling an electrode connector into his mouth.

"You'd better step back."

The alien walked up to the yacht's engine, pulled it hard, and started the engine, and while manipulating the computer, it said to the person behind it:

"Stand back at the entrance, it's safe distance!"

With that, it pressed enter.

The next moment, accompanied by a loud, piercing noise, clumps of pulsing blue arcs began to scurry in the basement, and the surrounding light bulbs began to flicker and go out, the scene was very similar to the laboratory of a mad scientist in a third-rate science fiction movie.

With Gordon's muffled grunt, the rings of discarded steel outside of the chair he was sitting on began to spin rapidly, dazzling, and after a few seconds, the glowing arcs of electricity on the spinning rings almost condensed into tangible lightning.

Gordon's chair began to spin in the opposite direction, getting faster and faster, until it reached a point where it was shocking.

The dangerous sound of steel cracking around J cautiously took another step back, while Merlin stood still, the readings of unknown energy rising rapidly in Icarus's lenses, like a bomb brewing to explode.

"Click"

With a crisp sound, a cracked iron bar pierced Merlin's abdomen at breakneck speed, causing both Jack and J to let out a scream at the same time.

But Merlin didn't care, he continued to look at the spinning instrument in front of him, and Gordon's painful voice came from it, and it seemed that the thing was in effect.

"Bang"

Ten seconds later, there was another loud bang, and a foul-smelling cloud of black smoke rushed up in the basement, completely stopping the chair that was turning far away, and Gordon seemed to have made an ion perm, his short hair stood on end, and he also exuded the smell of roasted meat.

"Hey."

Merlin flashed to Gordon and asked:

"Are you awake?"

"Uh..."

Gordon wailed a little in pain, and as he gasped, he said to Merlin:

"Damn it, Merlin, did I do something sorry for you, why are you torturing me so much? Hell, I feel like I'm going to be baked. ”

"Well, it does seem to be sober."

Merlin reached out to untie Gordon's arms and legs, and as he watched the stumbling Inhuman step out of his seat, he asked:

"What the hell happened before? Why are you lying next to me covered in blood, and who are you talking about? Is he or she in danger? ”

"Don't worry, let me take a break."

Gordon sat on the ground in pain, rubbing his head, and said:

"I'm in a mess right now, I'm going to have to sort it out."

"Oh, that's normal."

The alien Jack stood beside Merlin with a frown in his eyes, and he explained very doggedly:

"Memory recovery is a complicated process, and although his erased memories are restored, it will take a little time for his brain to adapt to it. It's like renumbering those memories... Well, a few minutes will be enough. ”

"Also, sir, you see, I did you a great favor, so, those things I did before... Is it possible to write it off? ”

It rubbed its hands together, and some of the philistines said:

"Of course, I know I made some stupid mistakes, and I will compensate for it, and I won't charge for recovering my memory this time."

Merlin glanced at Jack beside him, and he asked:

"Those Rubik's cubes, I mean, the technology you sold, is that thing useful for anything other than providing energy?"

"Uh, there is."

Jack said with some hesitation:

"It's essentially a highly converging energy, and if there's a weapon system to go along with it, then it can be crafted into a photon cannon, or something like an energy bomb. But no sane person would use it for such an occasion. ”

"I went to the planet when I was in exile, and those golden-skinned, self-proclaimed noble guys have developed amazing civilizations with this source of power. Their cities are magnificent, but all they need is a set of Rubik's cubes connected in parallel to supply the energy of the entire city... Just a fist-sized piece of Rubik's cube, converted into electricity used by earthlings... Well, it can at least allow a passenger ship full of people to run for more than 200 years. ”

"And most importantly, as long as the energy inside it doesn't leak out, it's harmless, it's a very clean energy, it's you... Uh, no, we, the most needed thing for us earthlings. ”

Jack spread his hands and said to Merlin with an innocent expression:

"You see, sir, I just sold the energy, and as for what the gang did with it, I don't care."

"So how do you use it?"

Merlin asked:

"I mean, how do you extract the energy out of it? You can't use a socket strip or a wire, right? ”

"It has a dedicated energy pumping mode!"

Jack rubbed his hands again, and said:

"I can give you all that information if you need it, of course... Hehe, it's not free. ”

"I remember!"

At this moment, Gordon, who was sitting on the side, suddenly said to Merlin:

"The messenger... The Emissary is a member of the royal family from Attilan who has come to warn us of something of vital importance! ”

"The Cree... The Cree have returned to Earth, and they are coming to take what their ancestors left behind, and then restart the weapons of war program on Earth modeled after Inhumans..."

"Warriors from Asgard tried to stop them, and we also rushed there with messengers, but we were ambushed..."

"The Cree... They brought sentinels. ”

"We must rescue the messenger!"

Gordon grabbed Merlin's wrist, gritted his teeth and said:

"We must stop those Kree from unleashing the Terrigen Mists around the world... Merlin, they're ready to move! ”

"We don't have much time left!"

PS:

The Kree Sentinel Robot is not the same thing as the X-Men Sentinel Robot and the Drugged Sentinel.
