"Isn't this really what we Hollywood guys are making movies about?"

Looking at the TV screen, the Twin Towers, which were billowing with smoke, and it could be said that the building was about to collapse, whether it was Charlize or Alexis, their faces were pale.

Charlize is okay, her experience since she was a child, and the chaotic law and order situation in that country in South Africa, made her psychologically prepared for war and other situations.

And Alexis, as a pure American girl, although she has been incarnated as a Valkyrie, mentally speaking, she is similar to other Americans.

Americans, who thought they were in the New World, were not at all mentally prepared for an attack on their homeland.

In fact, if you don't count Pearl Harbor during World War II — which took place in Hawaii, a place far from the continental United States, after all, the last time the continental United States was attacked was in 1812 during the Second American Revolutionary War.

At that time, the United States fought against the combined forces of Britain and Canada, and even the capital Washington was lost.

- The national anthem of the United States, "The Star-Spangled Banner Never Falls", was also born in that era......

In short, since then, the United States has basically not been attacked by foreign powers.

And even counting the subsequent Civil War, the United States has not heard the voice of war for nearly 150 years.

This gives Americans a sense of independence from the war-torn world.

This is also the fundamental source of isolationist thought.

This feeling makes the Americans always have a wonderful sense of security when interfering in other countries - "you can't hit us anyway."

But once their homeland is threatened by the slightest star, they will become nervous.

Just like the Cuban Missile Crisis, the reason why Kenny Dee dared to shout that even if he used a nuclear bomb to drive the Soviets out of Cuba, it was based on this feeling of the Americans.

- In that case, it was not only the senior officials in Washington who were scared and wanted to drive the Soviets away.

It is a pity that during the Cuban Missile Crisis, the United States was still faced with an opponent like the Soviet Union, which had a fairly low limit.

And this time the 911 is completely different......

"Alexis, do you want to go and see the scene?"

It took a long time for Alexis and Charlize to calm down a little before Charlotte said to Miss Valkyrie,

"You, the Valkyrie, can get there quickly—and you can help when you get there. ”

"Help!?"

Alexis was stunned, and Charlotte said in a deep voice,

"Don't forget, your essence is a Valkyrie - a Valkyrie flying over the battlefield!"

"Do you want me to be the one who sues the dead?"

Alexis naturally knew what the nature of the Valkyrie was, and she looked at Charlotte with a rare angry expression on her pretty face.

- The last time she was so angry with Charlotte was when she was attached to Charlize.

Charlotte shook her head,

"It's not something to be happy about, but it's not without meaning – and most importantly, you can save people!"

"You mean!?"

"As a ghost, Valkyrie can easily feel the breath of the dying on the battlefield, you can not only take them, but also pass their information to the rescuer's mind and let people save them. ”

"Can you do this!?"

Alexis immediately understood what Charlotte meant,

"But, whether it's the Twin Towers or the Pentagon, it's not really a battlefield, is it?

"Absolutely!"

Charlotte's face was gloomy and said,

"It's the battlefield, the battlefield where the rescuers fight the victims—the battlefield where they fight against death, where they take their lives. ”

"I see!"

Miss Valkyrie was a little embarrassed,

"I'm sorry, Charlotte, I blamed you!"

"Nothing. ”

Charlotte waved her hand,

"In this case, I can understand your mood - but if you want to save someone, you can't let this mood go, you must be calm at this time. ”

"I see. ”

Alexis nodded, and Charlotte continued,

"In addition to you, I'll also send Rivan and Francis Farmer over - both of them can help save people with their powers!"

As he spoke, he explained,

"When you get there, you just need to try to find the person who is still alive, and I will use the nightmare to establish a channel to help you pass the location of the survivor to the rescuer's brain. ”

"As for the souls of the dead—"

Charlotte glanced at Alexis, and finally gritted her teeth and said,

"I want you to fulfill your true nature as goblins!"

"You mean?"

"You get it!"

Charlotte's face was ugly and authentic,

"Even if you waste it, they won't be able to resurrect - and you don't, these powers will only be left to the Lord of Hell!"

"The Lord of Hell!? Will He be there too?"

Alexis was surprised.

"Yes. ”

"But even if this incident is very scary, the actual number of deaths is not very large, right?"

Miss Valkyrie was a little puzzled,

"At the very least, the death toll isn't so exaggerated compared to the Rwandan genocide or something — the Lord of Hell doesn't have to show up, right?"

"That's different!"

Charlotte shook her head with an ugly face.

However, based on his previous agreement with the Lord of Hell, he could not go into more detail.

- The power of the Lord of the Abyss limits his ability to continue.

At this time, Charlotte clearly felt the presence of the Lord of the Abyss.

And the reason why he can't go on is very simple-

Because that involves the existential nature of the Lord of Hell.

Essentially, the Lord of Hell represents death, but he is not a true Necromantic King.

- After studying spells for so long, Charlotte already knows very well that the saying that people die like lights go out is still very true.

Even if there is a mysterious power such as magic in this world, the death of most lives is the real end.

Only a small number of people, due to various luck factors, can be transformed into ghosts or even ghosts after death.

Although the Lord of Hell is inherently influential in such necromantic ghosts, the power that these ghosts can contribute to them is limited after all.

The true source of the power of the Lord of Hell is actually the fear of death among the living.

In this case, what really means to the Lord of Hell is not the number of deaths, but the influence of death.

- Charlotte has explored this point in various ways at the premiere of "The Mummy", and even learned some more secrets.

It's a pity that the Lord of Hell also discovered this at the same time, so he forcibly asked Charlotte to swear in the name of the Lord of the Abyss that this information could not be leaked......
