Chapter 573: Evidence (Thanks to Book Friend Silver Moon Demon Man for His Reward)
"Hey, Ling, I haven't seen you for a long time, I heard that you've been staying in Los Angeles for a while?" Seeing Ling Xiao arrive, Ciel stood up from behind his desk, opened the door to Stark's office and let Ling Xiao in, and said, "Natasha and Barton, as well as Rogers, have arrived. ”
"Thank you!" Ling Xiao nodded politely at Hill, and then walked directly into the office.
Seeing Ling Xiao's somewhat polite and excessive expression, Hill couldn't help frowning slightly, she knew that Ling Xiao was a little unhappy in her heart, it was normal for S.H.I.E.L.D. to rebuild the Helicarrier and not tell him about such a major event, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.
However, they can't be blamed for being too secretive about this matter, since the First World War in Washington, governments have been particularly sensitive to the emergence of superweapons such as space carriers, and as long as the slightest news leaks out, I am afraid that they will be wiped out.
Hill believed that after a while, when Ling Xiao's anger subsided, he asked Coulson to apologize to him properly, and the matter would be over.
To be honest, Hill was a little simpler, and Ling Xiao could still understand Stark and Fury hiding from him that they were working together to rebuild the Helicarrier.
In this matter, it was not anyone else who made the mistake, it was himself, and he himself thought that he had a deeper understanding of the development of the Marvel universe than anyone else, so he was more careless in the details of some things, such as the Helicarrier incident this time.
In the final analysis, whether it is Fury or Coulson, the trust in him is far less than Stark, after all, Tony Stark and his father are one of the founders of S.H.I.E.L.D., it can be said that S.H.I.E.L.D. has been paying attention to Tony Stark's growth since he was a child, and it can be said that he knows him very well.
But Ling Xiao is different, although he is also a member of the Avengers, but he has not appeared for a long time, even now, S.H.I.E.L.D. has a very limited understanding of him, no one knows where the upper limit of his ability is, let alone his weaknesses and shortcomings, and he is subconsciously a little guarded.
In addition, in the whole thing, Ling Xiao's enthusiasm was a little excessive, which made them reject him a little, and treated him more like they were taking advantage of him.
In the final analysis, it was Ling Xiao who had other intentions, and people were just subconsciously guarding against it, and he didn't treat others as people who could be trusted, and others treated him like this, and he couldn't blame others for not being there.
However, Ling Xiao's layout in S.H.I.E.L.D. has been largely completed, and he doesn't need to deliberately stay close to them, the most important thing now is to focus on his own affairs, especially the spiritual scepter that fell into Baron Straker's hands.
It is said to be an office, but in fact, this is part of the living and rest area on the top floor of Stark Building, where Tony Stark works, plays and lives in this area, the space is very large, the entire three floors are all opened, and the wide platform outside the building is where the Stark Building used to be located.
When Ling Xiao entered, he happened to see Captain America Rogers pulling Black Widow and Hawkeye to say something, and when he saw Ling Xiao walking in, he quickly waved at him, and Ling Xiao greeted him as he walked, "What are you talking about?" ”
"Nothing, it's something about Sokovia." Rogers looked at Ling Xiao and asked with some seriousness, "Ling, can you contact Thor, we need his help to attack Baron Straker this time." ”
Baron Straker has a Mind Scepter in his hand, and the last time Loki used the Mind Scepter, he almost let the Earth be taken over by the Chiritas. This time, just in case, to prevent any further changes, it is better to have Asgard involved.
"Yes!" Ling Xiao nodded, although he was very confident in his strength, it was really difficult to judge what kind of strength Baron Straker with the soul gem could exert, not to mention that he also had powerful super humans like Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch under his command, and after that, there was the birth of Ultron, with Thor, at least he could prevent some accidental casualties.
As they spoke, Tony Stark and Bruce Banner stepped down from the third floor while discussing something. Ling Xiao blinked in surprise, when did these two guys get together?
Now the entire Avengers, except for Thor, are all gathered, from Washington after World War I, Ling Xiao, Tony Stark, Captain America Rogers, Natasha Romanoff, and Patton, they are all more or less involved in the attack on Hydra, except for Bruce Banner and Thor.
Bruce Banner didn't make a move because Hulk was very difficult to control, and in order to prevent innocent injuries, he still didn't show up.
As for Thor, Thor was also very busy during this time, over the years, because of Odin's gradual aging, in the Nine Realms, there were more or less hidden dangers, so during this time, Odin kept sending Thor to various places to carry out tasks, calm down hidden dangers, and establish prestige and majesty.
On the exterior platform on the top floor of the Stark Building, Tony Stark and Rogers, Natasha, Barton, and Banner stood on the platform on the first floor, looking at Ling Xiao who was standing above the armor removal place, and he was standing alone on it, ready to contact Thor from here.
Lowering his head, he swept Stark and the others who were watching the excitement below, Ling Xiao shook his head slightly, took a step forward, and the next moment, the gray-black windbreaker on his body had already turned into bright silver heavenly soldier armor, only to hear the sound of "choking", a golden long sword had appeared in Ling Xiao's hand.
The shape of the Guanxiao Sword returned to the appearance of Odin's Sword again, Ling Xiao held the Sword of Odin high, and the true qi in his body continued to enter it, and after a few minutes, the sword of Odin was full of golden light, and at the same time, Ling Xiao shouted loudly: "Heimdall, let Thor come to Earth." ”
After finishing speaking, the golden light dissipated, Ling Xiao returned to the appearance of a gray-black trench coat, and then walked down from the high platform with an indifferent face, then nodded at Rogers, and said, "It's okay, after Thor receives the news, he will come directly to Earth." ”
"That's it?" Stark couldn't help but ask with a look of surprise on his face, the same is true for the other people's faces, is it that simple?
"It's that simple!" Ling Xiao smiled and explained, "Heimdall's eyes can see everything that happens in the Nine Realms, and the sword in my hand is also from Asgard, and when it is useful, it will also attract Heimdall's ideas, so he has already heard what I said just now." But Thor shouldn't be here that soon, he's been busy lately. ”
"Busy, what's going on?" Natasha asked with some curiosity, and the others looked at Ling Xiao with the same curiosity.
"Sif came to Earth some time ago, and I heard her say that Odin sent a lot of missions to Thor during this time." Ling Xiao looked up before continuing: "If you're lucky, Thor is in Asgard right now, and if he doesn't have anything to do, he will rush to Earth as soon as he receives Heimdall's notice; But if he's on a mission, he'll have to wait until he's back in Asgard. ”
"In other words, the time is uncertain!" Rogers pondered for a moment, then glanced at everyone, and said, "Okay, let's go back to the meeting first, Thor will leave him alone, it is naturally best if he can arrive in time, if he can't get out, our action can't be delayed." ”
"Everything is up to you, Captain." Tony Stark shrugged his shoulders indifferently, for him, it didn't matter if Tolsin didn't participate this time.
In the conference room, Hill stood in the middle of his desk, and while pulling on the virtual simulation technology, he showed the appearance of the Mind Scepter, and introduced: "A year ago, Hydra's conspiracy lurking in S.H.I.E.L.D. was revealed, leading to the disintegration of S.H.I.E.L.D., a large number of materials were plundered by Hydra, a large number of imprisoned prisoners were released, and many items with special abilities fell into the hands of Hydra, including the Mind Scepter. ”
Hill swept everyone before continuing: "Based on this period of investigation, it has been confirmed that the Psychic Scepter has fallen into the hands of Baron Straker, and is now in a castle in Sokovia.
Baron Straker is a veteran of the Hydra Red Skull period, and has the ability to release the Death Spore Virus, which can kill targets within a certain range in an instant, while the Psychic Scepter has the ability to manipulate people's hearts, so this mission is more difficult. ”
Regarding the specific ability information of Baron Straker, Ling Xiao learned about it through Mina Tangde, and he was a little curious about what intelligence channel Hill obtained this information through.
Among these people present, only Hulk has the ability to be immune to the Death Spore Virus, Ling Xiao and Stark can also be immune to the virus if they are well prepared, but the Mind Scepter's ability to manipulate people's hearts is only Stark can be immune, as for Hulk, it's good if he doesn't make trouble!
This battle is not so easy.
