Chapter 061: It's a Little Messy
Although it is said that as long as there are enough outsiders present, even the death knell cannot attack Coulson and Ward, who also play for Hydra, but whether Coulson and Ward can hold out until the Gotham police arrive is also a very serious question. At least for now, the situation is not optimistic.
However, there is good news here, which Rhaegar has just discovered - the current Death Knell does not know that he is alive, which means that the Death Knell is not yet to the point where he must kill people, so Coulson and Ward can still pretend not to know, and can use the identity of Hydra to 'fight' to unite with Death Knell. In this way, they also buy more time through lower-risk [negotiations], rather than using knives and guns as soon as they get started.
To be honest, if you really want to use a knife and a gun, Coulson and Ward will not be the opponent of the death knell in full swing if they are multiplied by a three. Coulson and Ward know that too. So when they heard about Rhaegar's idea in the 'headset', they immediately started doing it.
"Deathstroke, no matter what you think of us, no matter what you're doing, now that we have three Hydras, we have the upper hand." In the dimly lit basement of the Gotham Grand Theatre, Ward said. He himself usually doesn't have so much to say, but luckily, Knell doesn't know this. And after Ward finished speaking, Coulson also spoke: "Originally, our mission was to assist you. Do what you have to do, and I promise they won't escape any of them. ”
Coulson's acting skills are still good. At least Knell didn't find hostility in him. And since there is no hostility......
"Agent Coulson, don't underestimate Wolverine and Lei Xiaogu, especially the latter......," Deathstroke said lightly. He drew his katana and turned sideways toward Coulson and Ward, the other half to Wolverine, and his head to Thunder Valley. "By the way, do you know about Lei Xiaogu and the Assassin Alliance?"
Coulson frowned and shook his head.
"That's right, there are some things that don't even know about you, a ninth-level agent, even the director himself." Deathstroke paused, and the single exposed left eye watched Coulson's expression very closely. After a few seconds of not noticing anything unusual, he suddenly laughed, "But this does not include this matter." ”
There is no doubt that this is a test of Coulson by the death knell, and the specific position and specific reasons are still unclear, but Coulson survived. At this time, in the face of Killage's words, he put on an even more confused expression: "What do you want to express? ”
"Nothing." Knell replied casually. "I just want to say that this Lei Xiaogu is the head of a mysterious organization called the 'League of Assassins', and some of his subordinates are subordinates. And this one, Wolverine, not to mention him and the mutants behind him, I killed a batch, and another batch came. So...... Do you and your men still think we have the upper hand? ”
This time, without waiting for Coulson to speak, Wolverine let out a loud shout.
"You!"
To Rhaeggar's surprise—he was driving the car while following Coulson and Ward in the basement of the Gotham Theater through the sound of Skye's communicator in the back seat—Wolverine didn't just start fighting after that, but added "You'll pay" after a few heavy breaths, and then it was gone.
"That's it?!" Rhaegar asked consciously.
"Well, sort of." Fitz said, a little uncertainly, "Oh, he turned his head and didn't look at Deathknell again, but at the thunderbolt again. ”
"That's not Wolverine's style......" Rhaegar muttered. Originally, a group of mutants were killed by Knell, and Wolverine didn't save it, but now that he was provoked by Knell like this, he didn't act in a rage, and he could still endure it?
"No, he's angry, and very angry." Fitz apparently heard Rhaegar talking to himself, "Even though our vision is on Coulson's side, I can still see the bulging veins on his neck and arms from so far away. ”
Luckily, she didn't think too deeply, like how Rhaegar knew about Wolverine's style.
At this point, Rhaegar also affirmed one thing. Mutants are willing to sacrifice so many people, just for the sake of one thing in Lei Xiaogu's hands; Knell never told Coulson the truth, and when he snatched old Wayne from Rhaegar to kill him, he also targeted the same thing in Lei Xiaogu's hand. Contacting Lei Xiaogu's 'interaction' with the Wayne family, Rhaegar can now be sure that they are fighting for the resurrection pool of the Assassin Alliance.
And then the eggs. There's no way he's going to tell his teammates about it, and it might be useful in the future, but it doesn't help them in their current situation. No, it's not helpful or secondary, let's not talk about Rhaegar This is another secret that can't be said, the key is such an important thing, Death Knell has been keeping it secret before, and this time it will definitely not [negotiate] with Coulson!
At this time, in the basement scene, Death Knell interrupted Lei Xiaogu's provocation or two, and said very 'calmly' some of Wolverine's abilities, as if he really wanted to join forces with Coulson and Ward.
“…… That's it. I've heard that you have a stun gun that works better against enemies with super recovery abilities than ordinary knives and guns, maybe you can hold Wolverine back for me so that I can concentrate on fighting Lei Xiaogu. We'll be able to complete this mission. ”
This sentence was also heard by Rhaegar a few kilometers away.
"Fitz, when Death Knell says that, doesn't it come naturally to Coulson?"
Fitz is a little blindsided. He looked at Skye's tablet for a moment, then nodded. After another second, he realized that Rhaegar was driving, and he couldn't see the specific movement on their side, and his head was white.
And just as Fitz said "yes", Rhaegar came to the brakes suddenly. So, Fitz's "yes" was followed by a sentence "what's wrong", a question mark.
"What else can it be, let Coulson pay attention, the death knell is going to attack them."
"Oh, that's right."
Fitz snorted into the com, relaying Rhaegar's words - Rhaegar was loud enough to be heard over there. Then he added: "No, I'm asking how you parked your car?" ”
He was greeted by the sound of the car door closing—Rhaegar had already walked out.
No, it was rushed out.
Looking out the car window, Fitz, as well as Skye and Simmons, who used him as a microphone, knew the answer to the previous "what's wrong". In the middle of this, three men in black robes and bows and arrows on their waists were walking out with Thomas Wayne and Bruce Wayne, and Rhaegar fought with them.
