Chapter 478: Reason
In the night, Ling Xiao stood on the roof of the manor, looked at Coulson and his party in the distance, sighed slightly, turned to look at Fury standing in the dark, and asked in a deep voice: "Do you really think Coulson can lead the revival of S.H.I.E.L.D.?" ”
"There is no revival to talk about, it is still okay to rebuild, and with Coulson's character, there will be no such thing as a Hydra invasion again." Fury walked out of the darkness, looked at Coulson's distant back, and then asked Ling Xiao, "Okay, Ling, tell me, what do you think about the sequelae of GH325?" ”
"It's impossible to say that Coulson doesn't have the after-effects of GH325 at all, but I don't think it's too much of a problem." Ling Xiao shook his head, looked at Fury, who was a little puzzled, and explained: "You have also seen the pattern drawn by Garrett, as well as what he said at the beginning, 'cosmic explosion, eternal frozen ocean', you have also heard these with your own ears, according to my analysis, this should be influenced by memory." ”
Under the moonlight, Ling Xiao turned his back, looked at the moonlight above his head, and said faintly: "If my guess is correct, the source of those GH325 drugs in your hands should be the blood of the Cree people in the depths of the universe." There are many blue-skinned races in the universe, but only they can be strong enough to enter the earth without the Asgardians noticing; They are the only ones who can still affect human beings for an unknown number of years after death, and the memories remaining in their blood. ”
"Kree!" Fury looked down and thought about it, Ling Xiao sensed his movements, and asked in some surprise, "How do you know about the Kree?" ”
"I may have heard it somewhere, but you know, I have so many things in my head that I can't remember everything clearly." Fury raised his head to look at Ling Xiao, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "So, Coulson shouldn't have any big problems?" ”
"He's stronger than Garrett, at least he's more willing to survive." Ling Xiao glanced at Fury and said lightly: "I don't know how much GH325 you used for Coulson, it can be seen that your treatment plan has completely slowed down the impact of the Cree bloodline memories on him, coupled with his human personality and environment, it is impossible for him to go crazy like Garrett." ”
Seeing Fury's complete relief, Ling Xiao continued: "If it is said that it has no impact at all, it also does not exist, haven't you noticed that he has a lot more words than before, you can see that the impact of these bloodline memories on him, he has digested all of them." And ......"
"And what?" Looking at Ling Xiao's hesitation, Fury's heart suddenly jumped, and he had a bad premonition, so he couldn't help but hurriedly ask.
"I haven't had a thorough examination of Coulson, after all." Ling Xiao turned around with a solemn face, looked at Fury and said: "Although Coulson has been resurrected after GH325 drug treatment, in fact, he has died once after all, although his body seems to be fine, but his soul must have been damaged, coupled with the impact of the Kree bloodline memory, I can only say that his lifespan is much shorter than before the accident." ”
"Wait, I'll understand." Fury stared at Ling Xiao and said, "Do you mean that Coulson could die violently at any time?" ”
"It's a possibility, but it's very unlikely, so you don't have to worry too much." Ling Xiao waved his hand, and then said: "I mean, you don't expect Coulson to work for you for another thirty or fifty years, if he can live for another ten or so years, he will already be very face-saving by God." ”
Hearing Ling Xiao say this, Fury's face was not much easier, and in the end, he sighed heavily and said, "I don't know if I did this, whether it was right or wrong, maybe I really shouldn't have used this way to save him in the first place." ”
Ling Xiao understood the meaning of Fury's words, if he hadn't resurrected Coulson, the current Coulson would not have encountered so much pain, he said comfortingly: "Judging from the current situation, the decision you made at the beginning is fine, otherwise, the current situation will not be able to deal with it." And Coulson is not completely out of the question, if he can find something to repair his soul in the future, it may not be impossible to extend his lifespan. ”
Fury's eyes suddenly lit up, lowered his voice, and said carefully, "You mean the Psychic Scepter?" ”
"I don't know!" Ling Xiao sighed slightly and said: "According to our understanding of the Mind Scepter, users can change the minds of others through it, this is how Loki controlled Barton and Professor Shagway in the first place, as for whether Coulson's soul can be repaired, at least it is difficult to say now, at least we have to wait until we try it, before we can have an answer." ”
"But now that the Mind Scepter has fallen into the hands of Hydra, according to the information we have now, the Mind Scepter has left the United States, and it is not easy to find him." Fury left the United States for Europe a while ago, on the one hand, to check the situation of the European branch of S.H.I.E.L.D., and on the other hand, to find out the location of the Psychic Scepter.
Compared with the United States, Fury's ability to gather intelligence has decreased a lot, although now that S.H.I.E.L.D. has dissolved, there is the FBI, there are local police stations in various places, and Fury does not lack sources of intelligence.
On the contrary, in Europe, although it is said that Hydra was redeveloped by Alexander Pierce from the foundation of S.H.I.E.L.D., but the original headquarters of Hydra was originally in Europe, and in Germany, Hydra developed much faster than imagined, and many Nazi remnants who had escaped justice after World War II developed one after another.
So much so that after Alexander Pierce's Hydra division was destroyed, the overall strength of Hydra was not damaged too much.
The disappearance of the Red Skull has made many people in Hydra think of themselves, and now there are large and small mountains formed within Hydra, and even the communication between them is not very smooth, for example, although they now have Grant Ward in their hands, they are completely confused about the distribution of various forces, contact information, and communication channels within Hydra.
"There's no rush in the matter of the scepter of the mind." Ling Xiao shook his head and said indifferently: "The hydra will definitely not be indifferent when it gets it, and it will definitely make a big move with it, so the mental scepter will be exposed sooner or later, so you have to be prepared." The last time the Mind Scepter caused trouble, it would have required all the Avengers to assemble to solve, and as far as I can see, this time it's pretty much the same. ”
The means of the Psychic Scepter to silently control people's hearts are too terrifying, and Fury feels uneasy every time he thinks of this, lest a cronie standing next to him has been controlled by Hydra with the Psychic Scepter, so he sends out all the people he can believe in and acts alone.
"I'll be ready." Taking a deep breath, Fury nodded solemnly, and then he raised his head to look at Ling Xiao, squinted his eyes and asked, "Ling, don't you want to know where the new base I arranged for Coulson is?" ”
"No, I don't know if I can take it easy." Ling Xiao smiled indifferently, looked at Fury and said meaningfully: "Moreover, I believe that the reason why you don't take the initiative to tell must have your own reasons, and I don't need to ask anything more!" ”
"Ling, you really have more eyes than everyone else." Fury chuckled, Ling Xiao is the person with the simplest identity background in the entire Avengers team, compared to Tony Stark, who has one of the largest groups in the United States, Captain Rogers from more than half a century ago, Black Widow, a former Soviet spy, Thor, the heir to the Asgardian throne, and Barton, who has a complex identity background, Ling Xiao is the easiest for people to see.
This is also the reason why Fury chose to let Ling Xiao help, he doesn't have to worry about what impact Ling Xiao will have on the establishment of the new S.H.I.E.L.D., let alone like Alexander Pierce, who quietly develops and grows Hydra within S.H.I.E.L.D.
"Ling!" Fury said sincerely: "Although you were very careful during this time, the things you helped Coulson did not necessarily go unnoticed in the eyes of some people, they didn't do anything to you, just because there was no evidence." That's why I want you to stay apart from Coulson for a while, and then you can do it when they need it. ”
