Chapter 369: The Collector
Tanya Tivan, Elder of the Universe, Master of the Barren Lands, Collector.
In appearance, the collector looks like a middle-aged human, with vigorous white hair, exaggerated unknown fur, a straight silver mark under his lips, and a bit of madness in his behavior.
It's a little different from what Thor and Loki said, the so-called noble status and cosmic status of these two goods are obviously useless in the eyes of this collector.
When he met Jordan and the others, the light in the collector's eyes was not like treating a guest at all, but more like looking at something.
This kind of vision, Jordani is actually quite familiar.
When Jordan and a few of his girlfriends go out shopping on the planet, once they see clothes, cosmetics, jewelry and the like, Jordan's girlfriend's eyes will bloom with a similar light.
After looking at it for a long time, just when Jordani felt that his chrysanthemum was a little cold, the collector finally withdrew his gaze.
In a dimly lit studio.
The Collector sat on a large chair, wrapped in a giant fur coat, fiddling with several card-like universal cosmic currencies.
Da!
With a snap of her fingers, a pink-skinned maid with two ponytails walked into the studio and came to the collector's side, massaging him gently.
It was only then that the collector spoke, "Very pure Asgardian taste, I heard that you want to get a star map from me to planet C53 in the Milky Way?" ”
Faced with the collector's question, everyone looked at each other.
Loki quickly spoke, "Your Excellency the Elder of the Universe, thank you very much for your help to us, Asgard will remember this friendship of your Excellency. ”
The Collector didn't react to Loki's words, and simply said, "No problem! The star map can be given to you! ”
Seeing that the collector was so easy to speak, Tony suddenly spoke: "In addition to the star map, we need a little help to modify our fighters!" ”
Tony's request was necessary.
The Phoenix fighter is produced by the earth, although it applies the photon energy technology of Dr. Raul in the past, and has reached the super-first-class level of the universe in terms of performance, but after all, there is no preparation for astronautics, and the replacement of the operating system and the brain is also a must be done, otherwise, even if there is a star map, it cannot be installed and used.
For the huge industry of collectors, this is naturally not a problem, and the other party readily agreed.
Jordan and everyone else didn't expect that this collector would be so easy to talk and a bold horse.
This kind of temper is the most appetizing to Thor, and soon, Thor laughed, and said with a proud and familiar face: "You have gained friendship from the god of thunder and storms, do you have wine, I think it is necessary to have a good drink with you!" ”
Listening to Thor's words, the collector's eyes suddenly brightened.
Just as Thor was happy, the Collector stared at Thor as if he were looking at the woman he loved, and said, "The god of thunder and storms?" I thought it was just an ordinary Asgardian royal bloodline collection, but I didn't expect that there was a god's real name, yes, really good, do you have any other needs, I can meet you all at once! ”
Thor didn't hear the collector very clearly, and laughed even more with pride.
On the contrary, Jordani and the others, who were not as nervous as Saul, quickly noticed some strangeness in the collector's words.
Jordani frowned slightly, and said, "Your Excellency the Elder of the Universe, what did you mean by what you just said?" ”
The collector waved his hand and asked the pink-skinned maid to step back, her eyes did not leave Thor's body, and she said with a smile on her face: "There is no such thing as pie in this world, you only need to pay the price of one person, let him be my collection, and you can get everything you want......"
Cracking sound!
Just when the collector was getting more and more excited, he didn't notice that Thor's face, who was still laughing heartily, had turned black like the bottom of a pot, and one after another lightning flashed on Thor's body.
Bang!
A bolt of lightning burst out, and Thor stepped forward, grabbed the collector by the neck, raised it with one hand, and roared angrily, "You damn white-haired chicken, do you want to treat me as a collector's item, you are blaspheming the glory of Asgard, and you must pay for it!" ”
In fact, for a long time, Thor has not been as high as he is now.
Since Thor was defeated by Miss Hela and banished to Earth, Thor has grown a lot, and his original recklessness and middle two have gradually converged.
But this time, the words of the collector deeply stimulated Thor.
Just as Thor erupted, one figure after another quickly broke into the room, holding unknown weapons in their hands, and aimed at Jordan and the others in a solemn atmosphere.
"Hey, Thor, calm down!"
Steve stepped forward and pulled Thor down, letting Thor let the collector go.
Regarding Thor's reckless behavior, the collector just rubbed his neck lightly, but he was not angry, but just circled around Thor twice, with a look of pity, and said: "Now only the divine power of the thunder attribute has been stimulated, and the divine power of the storm attribute has not been activated yet?" In this way, the value of the collection is greatly reduced! ”
The collector looked sorry, but he didn't let the soldiers go.
In the face of this kind of evaluation of the goods by the collector, Thor was about to explode again with the power of electricity, and he could barely bear it.
Fortunately, at this time, Jordan took a step forward and said, "Your Excellency the Elder of the Universe, I'm sorry, we didn't mean to hand over our partner to you as a collectible, I think you may have misunderstood something!" ”
People have to bow their heads under the eaves.
The current collector is not really a weak chicken, not only has good ability, but also has a huge planet and infinite wealth as a backing.
If this collector wants to be detrimental to Jordan and the others.
Even if Jordan and the others were able to kill this collector, they would be torn to pieces by countless people in the entire barren land, and in this barren land, more than 50% of the population relied on this collector to eat.
Hearing Jordani's words, the Collector let the alien soldiers leave the room.
Jordani and the others were not going to sell Thor to the collector as a collectible, and the collector was obviously a little disappointed, sat back on the single sofa, and said: "Since you are not going to sell the collection, I will not be reluctant, but I think you will regret it, you know, in the entire universe, there will be no one who can afford a better price than me." ”
Although he said that he was not reluctant or anything, the collector looked at Thor with a look of longing.
Steve looked upright and said, "Your Excellency the Elder of the Universe, we are a complete team, each of us is our closest comrade-in-arms and an inseparable part of us, not to mention, why do you want to collect Thor, this is a bit ......"
The notion that living people are treated as objects is unacceptable to Steve.
The collector glanced at Steve, raised an eyebrow, and then said seriously, "Why can't you collect living people?" This is just my hobby, not to mention, the passage of time, the changes of the universe, those so-called civilizations, races are disappearing all the time, we collect the most unique and outstanding life forms among them, isn't it a very fulfilling thing? ”
The corners of Steve's mouth twitched, and he wanted to say something, but he stopped alive.
If it were really on Earth, Steve would definitely let this so-called collector know what a fist the size of a punching bag is, but in this barren land, forget it.
The most important thing for himself and others at the moment is to find a way to return to Earth, and it is no good to offend this collector.
What's more, Steve also saw that this practice of the collector is obviously not a big problem in the universe, and there is no so-called morality in the universe.
But just as Steve was holding back his words, the collector spoke up again, "Actually, if you were willing to be my collector's item, I'd be willing to pay a higher price than just now, two, no, four times!" ”
Steve: "......"
Everyone: "......"
On the contrary, it was Thor who finally suppressed his anger, and after hearing the words of the collector, the anger suddenly soared again, and roared: "F.. K, why? If you can't give me a reasonable explanation, I'll demolish your garbage collection now! ”
The collector glanced at Thor with a little disdain, and said, "Although there are not many pure Aesir gods, they are not unusual in the universe, and this human is obviously different, it has a noble will and soul, and is full of pure and righteous power, which is extremely rare even in my long life!" ”
Thor grew furious, but inevitably, and glanced at Steve, with a look of disbelief on his face.
Jordani was completely speechless about Thor's IQ, looked at the collector, and said, "Your Excellency the Elder of the Universe, we have no intention of selling any of our partners, if you can help us return to Earth, maybe I have a message to sell to you!" ”
At this time, the collector had recovered his previous laziness and coldness, and said: "This is a barren land, one of the most chaotic areas in the universe, a paradise for interstellar pirates and raiders, and if you want to get what you want here, you need to pay enough price and pay!" ”
After less than a minute of coldness, the collector quickly became itchy again, and said to Jordan, "What news do you want to sell to me?" You know, I'm only interested in the collectibles that I'm interested in! ”
This sudden change in the collector made Jordani very uncomfortable.
I have to say that in terms of personality, this collector is too out-of-the-box, obsessed for a while, cold for a while, and childish for a while, just like a neurotic with multiple personality splits.
