Chapter 0334: Milky Way (1)
In the evening, Coulson finally invited two Church of Light Gods to his spaceship, and the reason why it took so long was actually something that could not be helped, firstly, because he needed to command the agents and an Autobot from ABP to launch an attack on the abandoned power lab; Besides, Archbishop Sally of the Church of Light is too busy presiding over the affairs of the church......
"Renault, and Sally ......"
"To be honest, I really didn't expect you to really do such a big business in a short period of time!"
"I've heard that you've raised a lot of money with that kind of light, and you're planning to build a new large-scale Cathedral of Light by the Hudson River?!"
Coulson led the two of them on tour of his 'Little Bear' transport ship, chatting with the two aliens from the world of Azeroth, and he had been lamenting that these two had been able to earn such a big career in such a short period of time:
You know, a month ago, he Coulson, a former leader of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Special Operations Squad, was ordered to fly to the Slingshot base with two elopes from the world of Azeroth, and then flew back to New York. At that time, he himself was already an eighth-level agent and captain of S.H.I.E.L.D., and the other two, after they bought the cathedral, were basically a pair of penniless dog men and women!
Now, a month later......
S.H.I.E.L.D., which he Coulson worked for, closed its doors and collapsed! Although the new Aegis Bureau was created, he himself was still the leader of a special operations team, in addition to the fact that his vehicle had been transformed from an Airbus into an advanced medium-sized Ji'an-class stealth transport ship!
Although it seems that the rank and position have not changed much, but the treatment has improved a little bit, and the car and equipment are better, right?
However, now look at these two aliens: these two dog men and women have now mixed with the archbishop and chief paladin of the legally registered Holy Light Church.
It is said that their Holy Light Church already has more than 100,000 believers and thousands more quasi-believers than the official employees of the Xiong Shield Bureau! Every day, countless dignitaries and dignitaries have to come to talk to them, and the various invitations they receive alone weigh at least a few pounds? They have even bought a dozen acres of land and are preparing to build the new Chapel of the Wish of Light with great fanfare.
Now it is already foreseeable: with the help of the kind of magical holy light that exists and has amazing curative effects, and can even resurrect the dead under certain conditions, the future achievements of these two people will definitely be limitless! In the future, it will at least be equivalent to the Pope of the Vatican, right?
Then, comparing himself to himself, Coulson suddenly felt a little frustrated...... Why is there such a big difference between this man and man?
He himself has obviously worked hard......
"That's true!"
"It's just that the efficiency of those engineering teams is too low! They said it would take at least two years to complete that project...... It's a pity that you don't have a professional construction mage like us here in Azeroth, otherwise the construction time might have been greatly shortened. ”
Renault, who was following Coulson with his sister Sally to visit this magical huge space battleship, he was actually quite envious of the other party, this kind of battleship was better and quieter and more stable than the plane last time!
And, it also seems to have the ability to teleport and stealth through distances? These two magical functions make Renault feel very practical!
After a few minutes of wandering and visiting, he could see very clearly that this battleship could hold at least thousands of warriors, and if they had this kind of flying machine in Lordaeron, they would have organized a raid on Icecrown Glacier and tried to destroy the sleeping Lich King Arthas, right?
"Two years is already a lot of time! After all, your church is so big, although the main structure will not take that long, but the decoration is a meticulous work! ”
"Moreover, what you are asking for is that kind of fine and luxurious decoration, and those unfamiliar reliefs alone cannot be completed in a short time!"
"Compared to this, I'm actually more worried, will you fight with other churches because of missionary matters?"
As soon as he thought of the structural design of the Cathedral of the Holy Light's Wish on the other side, Coulson felt that it was too ostentatious and extravagant! If it is really completed at that time, it will definitely be a big storm......
After all, here on earth, there are really a lot of disputes due to the issue of faith, and some people, whether it is interests or beliefs, will never sit idly by and watch the peaceful rise of this foreign new sect!
Of course, none of these things have anything to do with him Coulson, so he doesn't need to talk too much!
Anyway, he is a paladin and a priest who is comparable to a superhero, and he has the ability to do so, and then he has a strong backstage, so he Coulson doesn't need to worry too much! In addition, these two people have a good relationship and origin with their Bear Shield Bureau, and now they are still friendly with those dignitaries, and the general small problems must be difficult for the rising Holy Light Church.
Besides, human beings are afraid of death!
Except for some people who want to oppose this church because of the entanglement of interests, no one else is willing to go and get along with these two 'saints' who can save lives and cure all diseases!
"The affairs of the church must not be sloppy, just slow down......"
This is the career she will strive for all her life in the future, and Sally will definitely not be sloppy!
Now, she really plans to nest with her brother Renault here on this peaceful earth, and she doesn't plan to go back, so it has become her pursuit in this world to carry forward the Holy Light Church and wait for the opportunity to cultivate a group of core Holy Light Cultists.
"By the way, Mr. Coulson, is there anything else you can do? If not, then you can drop us off now, and then you can send someone to drive us back. ”
After touring the new Bear Shield ship and returning to the conference room, Sally Whitemane felt that it was not too early and that if it was okay, she would go back sooner. After all, she is now the archbishop of the Holy Light Church, and she is very busy every day!
She needs to prepare for tomorrow's work, when she will need to be there herself, whether it is to preach the teachings or to give blessings with the light on time every day.
"Back, back?!"
"But, Sally, you don't think you have treated Melinda yet......"
Just now, Coulson had already taken the two of them to Melinda's medical warehouse.
But the result? The two of them just looked at Melinda for a while, and then walked out after discussing two words with each other that he didn't understand, he thought that the other party was discussing what treatment plan, so he didn't dare to ask more.
But now it's good, I took the two of them around for a while, and then, they actually planned to leave? Could it be that Melinda is really dead? Or, in that crazy state, even the two of them can't do it?!
"Huh! Dear Mr. Coulson......"
"You may not know that just now, we actually healed her...... Now, all you need to do is give Miss Melinda a good night's rest, don't disturb her, and then, at the latest, tomorrow morning, be back to normal. ”
After being stunned for a moment, Sally Whitemane suddenly smiled at Coulson, who was still in the dark. The state of fear caused by that low-level banshee, in fact, doesn't need her and Lei Luo to go out at all! If it weren't for the priests and knight apprentices they had trained now, none of whom had yet been able to master the Light, they would have been able to send an apprentice at random.
She had indeed healed Ms. Melinda before!
After all, whether it's the paladin's cleansing technique, or their priest's purification technique, it's still easy to use the Holy Light to soothe people's hearts and solve this small problem caused by fear.
And just now, the reason why this Coulson didn't find out that she had made a move was actually just that she didn't use that kind of sound and light trick to fool people! Anyway, the two sides also know each other well, and they are familiar with each other, so she doesn't need to show off her Holy Light ability in front of these people in the Bear Shield Bureau, so she unknowingly completed the treatment.
And the reason why she didn't wake up the other party just now was just to let the lady who had been affected by the fear technique for a long time be able to use sleep to slowly erase the trauma when she was dominated by fear.
Tomorrow morning, when the other party wakes up, it will be as if he had a nightmare, and that will be the most perfect treatment effect!
"It's already cured, so that's really good......
Now that the other party had unknowingly cured Melinda, and thinking about the fact that Melinda in the treatment chamber was indeed sleeping peacefully when they left the medical room, Coulson nodded suddenly.
"That's right! We may have one more thing that we need to take care of for us! ”
"Here's the thing: we were dealing with the ghost in the afternoon, and we found out that the other person seemed to be fiddling with a very strange and magical book...... I thought, maybe you can give us some advice? ”
This afternoon, they launched a raid on the hiding place of the woman's ghost, and with the help of the flaming Transformers hornet who came to help, they succeeded in eliminating the ghost of the woman who had attacked civilians many times without heeding advice!
Then, in the lab that was supposed to be shut down, they found several identical boxes, as well as an old book with a weird black cover!
The boxes that might still contain ghosts, Coulson didn't dare to mess around, but directly and carefully kept them for future research or other things. But they now have enough evidence to believe that strange old book: it's definitely not a simple thing!
Because, Coulson, they discovered, its blank, indestructible parchment pages would reveal whatever they wanted to see according to the needs of those who touched and flipped through it!
For example, Agent Barbara, who was the first to get and look through it, saw all kinds of magical fighting skills, as well as some ancient martial arts secret techniques, and even, some magical style weapons manufacturing methods, and so on!
And when he Coulson looked through it, it would also appear in time for any information he wanted to know according to what was in his own mind, and it was extraordinary! While he was thinking about the boxes and the ghosts inside, the book even showed how to make those boxes safe and how to transform and lock up a large living person......
Therefore, after subconsciously knowing that the book was very evil, he Coulson did not dare to continue reading it, but planned to list it as a dangerous mysterious object and put it away first, ready to hand it over to a specialized person to study or deal with.
But now, in the sight of these two Holy Light Church gods...... Oh, after being a clergyman, after being subverted by a real ghost, Coulson suddenly felt that he felt something evil, and maybe it would be a good choice to show these two people and assess the security level for him?
If it's harmless, then the book is really a super useful thing! Perhaps, it's actually a magical encyclopedia or an intelligent database?
"Please wait a moment, please rest assured, I promise not to delay your time too much......"
Seeing the puzzled expressions of the two, Coulson smiled apologetically, then quickly turned around and took a silver box with a combination lock from a nearby laboratory safe, and after opening it, he quickly took out the black-covered book and placed it in front of the two of them.
"Look, this is it!"
"It's amazing! Anyone who touches and flips through it can see whatever they want from that otherwise blank page! What's more, it even displays different text depending on the native language of the person looking at it! ”
"What's even better: everyone sees something different! Moreover, even if two people look at it at the same time, they will see different contents! How's that, isn't it amazing? ”
After pushing the book in front of the two of them, Coulson smiled and motioned that they could now boldly flip through it.
If he doesn't read it now, he will send this book to the Iron Bear headquarters base on the far side of the moon tomorrow at the latest, and at that time, outsiders will probably not have a chance to read it.
“……”
"What's wrong? Any questions? ”
However, what puzzled and surprised Coulson was that whether it was the young Renault Paladin, who was usually more out-of-the-box, or the calm and wise little girl Sally priest, these two people just frowned slightly and stared at this ancient parchment book with a black cover, and had no intention of going forward to look through it?
What happened to these two people? What the hell is that look like a great enemy? It's just a magical ancient book, and is it scary to show such an oozing expression?
"Uh...... Can you tell me what's wrong with you, this book...... Is there something wrong with it? ”
Coulson was a little puzzled, he took this thing out, just to let these two provide him with a little reference, why didn't the two of them not only not look at it, but they didn't even touch it? Could it be that they really know this weird thing?
“……”
Sally Whitemayne and Renaud Mograine did not speak, and after glancing at each other in a slightly shocked manner, they suddenly took two large steps back in unison, a little further away from the ancient book, and waited for it.
This vigilant action frightened Coulson, who was originally full of anticipation, with a sigh in his heart! Seem...... Did he feel that things were a little more than he expected?
Look at the two people in front of you who are afraid and afraid to touch, then this thing is definitely not small!
And, more importantly: the rest of them, including him Coulson, Agent Barbara, and the likes of Fiz and Simmons, have all looked through it many times! If he hadn't given the order to put this thing away first, I guess that Fitz and Simmons, the two tech maniacs, would still continue to hold it and continue to do research, right?
"Mr. Coulson......
"If I were you, I wouldn't touch this evil thing lightly, let alone look at anything on it! Remember, yes, never, never! ”
Sally Whitemane exhaled deeply before warning Coulson, who was a little at a loss, with a cold expression.
As a priest of the Holy Light, as a user of the Holy Light, Sally herself noticed that it was wrong at the first time!
Because, on it, there seems to be a lot of powerful black magic? And, at the same time, surrounded by an evil and ominous dark energy, there seems to be a faint soul of those who can corrupt and use or touch it?
From the faint but incomparably powerful dark energy that swirled around it, she and Renault could roughly see it, there was no doubt about it!
This book, perhaps, is another artifact with dark attributes?
This reminded her and Renault of the Prince of Arthas, who had caused the tragedy of the entire continent of Lordaeron, and the Frost Sorrow in his hand, which was also a dark and evil artifact......
"Can't touch it? So, what is it? ”
"Also, many of us have already seen and touched it, and until now, we don't seem to feel anything wrong......
Before they knew it, the people in their Bear Shield Bureau were quite happy to read the book, and they didn't feel anything wrong with themselves. But now, after realizing that these two such powerful paladins and priests did not dare to touch were actually looked through by them several times, Coulson finally became a little anxious.
Was he really afraid that in the end, the people who touched the book would turn into the ghost-like woman and the unlucky ones who were still locked in the box?
"Mr. Coulson, please be wary of our advice!"
"This book, if I'm not mistaken, should be a book for mages...... Moreover, it should still be a very evil kind! It's very, very evil...... I can feel it......"
"Light, it's calling, keep me away from it......"
After staring intently at the black-covered book on the table for a moment, Sally Whitemane shook her head helplessly, reaffirming her assumptions.
This kind of thing, she will never touch it, and she will never look at its contents!
Now it's clear, and everything else is easy to discuss! Whether it is to heal the sick or resurrect someone who has been dead for a long time, she will provide them with gratuitous assistance in the face of Queen Anne and the two of them who have helped them.
However, only in this matter now, she and her brother Renault really can't help this Coulson.
"Trust me, Mr. Coulson."
"This book, it's not something like me that dares to touch it casually, and if you do that, some kind of terrible consequences will happen......"
"So, Mr. Coulson, I suggest you go and contact Her Majesty Queen Anne as soon as possible! Only her kind of existence can possibly figure out what this book is! Only a powerful demigod mage of hers can solve some of the bad consequences that you might trigger when you touch this book? ”
The mage's affairs should be handled by the mage!
Since, now this book is a book about magic, whether it is evil or not, it is always impossible to leave it to that powerful being!
She, Sally Whitemane, is now just a Holy Light professional who has only recently broken through the high-level priesthood, epics and legends are still out of reach, plus interlaced lines are like mountains, for the affairs of the Faye, she, a priest, is really helpless.
"That'...... So what do we do now? ”
After knowing the power of this book from the performance of these two people, Coulson really didn't know what to do. Before, he was ignorant, so they could casually flip through it, but now, he really wanted to learn from the two people opposite, if he stayed away from this book, I don't know if it was too late?
"What else can I do? Put it back in and lock it up now! Then, use your instruments to contact Her Majesty Queen Anne! ”
Seeing the other party's cowering look, Sally glared at the other party angrily.
Now that they've looked through it several times, what's the point of touching two more? If the book is really the same as she imagined, then maybe they have already been affected, so it doesn't matter if they touch it a few more times!
“……”
"Okay! ...... to be held later No! Contact Little Anne now! ”
After saying that, Coulson didn't have time to put away the book, and hurriedly operated it on the side of the console, intending to urgently ask for help from a certain magical advisor of the Bear Shield Bureau. Fortunately, he just asked these two to help him on a whim, otherwise, maybe there would be some big mess!
(Drop!) Sorry, the number you are dialing is outside the service area, please call again later...... )
An electronic synthesizer snapped, and the holographic screen above clearly displayed a red warning phrase.
"This ......"
Coulson was stunned, since their S.H.I.E.L.D. collapsed and mixed up with the Bear Shield Bureau, this was the first time that this kind of liaison could not contact anyone!
You know, their current satellites now cover all regions of the Earth and the Moon! Moreover, even without the relay of satellites, their communication can ensure safe communication around the entire solar system. But now, how can this kind of thing happen to the other party outside the service area?
At this time, where did little Anne go to play again?
He didn't seem to have heard that she had any plans to leave this world and continue her journey to other dimensional worlds......
————
No space, mining colonies!
It is said that the head of a dead member of the Celestial Group was originally here, but no one knows what his name was, how he died, or who cut off his head......
Anyway, hundreds of years ago, the Difan Group sent workers here to mine the skull of this huge interstellar corpse for those organic matter, bones, brain tissue, spinal fluid, residual blood, and so on! They are all rare and precious resources, both on the official market and on the black market, and are extremely valuable!
However, this kind of work inside the skull of a dead god is fraught with uncertain dangers! Therefore, it is only suitable for criminals to carry out their work.
So, after so many years, it gradually evolved into a large-scale interstellar mining city set up in the huge head of this Celestial Group!
Here, there are many different alien races such as the Hi'a, Zehoubery, Skuru, Cree, Rufmund, Spartan, and Nova Legion Sendari! Of course, some of them are prisoners and descendants of prisoners, and some of them are people who come here to pan for gold? So, you can't expect security to be so good here!
(Hey!) Little master, it's time to stop! Wake up! Your spaceship is about to crash into someone else's door!
- After jumping and flying for a while, Tibbs dutifully played the role of an alarm clock, waking up some sleepy little kid. )
“……”
"Tibbs, how long have we been flying?"
In this small luxury space shuttle ship of the Federation of Heroes, Anne woke up in a daze after hearing the voice of her own bear Tibbs.
