Chapter 020: Get to Know Officially
In fact, at the first punch at Ward, Rhaegar began to regret it.
This is not to say that he shouldn't fight back after Ward throws him out of the Bus, but in his actual situation he needs to consider the issue of energy consumption. Moreover, in the course of the battle, it is likely that his skills will be revealed.
Two minutes ago, he could only fight with the strength and agility of Malik's body itself. By the way, there is instinct - but not the instinct of Malik, who was previously the leader of the assault squadron. It is true that Rhaegar took control of Malik's body, but Malik's own combat awareness, combat experience, and combat skills have all dissipated with the death of his 'soul'. And because of his former profession as a screenwriter specializing in secret agent scripts, Rhaegar can't say that he doesn't know anything about martial arts, but he's better at the fancy fighting moves, because they cater to the audience better than real punches and kicks. It's a pity that he now has to deal with not a spectator, but a well-trained and experienced fighter. To be honest, while Ward was already consciously letting go, Rhaegar was able to hold on to his routines that were more entertaining than practical, which was pretty good.
But two minutes later, things were different. First of all, the two minutes of high-intensity fighting did not consume much of his energy. Of course, it's not like the game interface, and he doesn't know how much he's consumed without an energy bar. All he knew was that he wasn't tired, and that his grip on Malik's body hadn't slackened, but had tightened — and he didn't know if it was an illusion. He could also feel the force and speed he was showing through Malik's body slowly but surely increasing. Naturally, the one who feels the most about this is his opponent, Ward. Ward had been able to do it at half his strength before, but gradually he had to increase his commitment. From 50% to 60%, 70% to ......
Until just now, after carrying Ward's whole set of combination punches that used at least eighty percent of his strength - the most lethal of them was the last elbow blow - Rhaegar gritted his teeth and subconsciously came to a big explosion, and even pulled Ward's elbow and buckled his arm, and an over-the-shoulder fall threw him several meters away!
Looking at 'himself' hands afterwards, Rhaegar himself was a little confused.
At this time, May, who received Coulson's signal, rushed out and blocked between Rhaegar who was still in a daze and Ward, who had just gotten up from the ground and was about to explode the strongest blow, stopping the meaningless battle.
Ward didn't say anything. After giving Rhaegar a deep look, he turned to Coulson and nodded, too lightly that no one noticed, and strode into the Bus. During this time, Fitz wanted to say something of concern to him, but was so frightened by his cold face that he swallowed the words back. He brushed past Fitz and climbed the spiral ladder back to the second floor of the Bus.
Skye and Fizz-Simmons looked at each other for two or three seconds, and then turned their attention to their new teammates.
At this time, Coulson had already come to May's side, in front of Rhaegar.
When he brought Skye, Fitz, and Simmons back from the city last night, because it was too late and too tired, Rhaegar actually just said hello to Coulson, and it wasn't officially a member of the team. Now, naturally, it is a part of the team members to introduce and get to know each other.
"Agent Regamalik, we've been waiting a long time for your return." With a formulaic smile on his face, Coulson said. Then without Rhaegar explaining anything, he continued: "We will discuss your request for leave this time, the handling of the delay, and the application you submitted as soon as you returned. Now let's get to know your new teammates. ”
"Obviously I've got to know a few of my new teammates." Glancing at Fitz and Simmons, and then focusing on Skye, who was still holding the little pit bull tetanus, Rhaegar smiled and said, "You weren't very good when I appeared, so you didn't recognize me." But...... Hopefully it didn't scare you last night. ”
The three young men were stunned for a moment, and then they realized that Rhaegar was the one who rescued them from the vampire last night, but he used 'murderous' methods.
And just when they were embarrassed and didn't know what to say, Rhaegar turned to Coulson and spoke in a very serious tone, "And, sir, it's just Rhaegar. You can call me Agent Rhaegard, the last name Malik has been given up by me. ”
This time it was Coulson's and Meifa's turn to be stunned.
After a secret meeting with Hill and learning that this Rhaegar was not Bilegara, Coulson, May, and Hill all thought that the 'New Rhaegar' might have taken refuge with Gideon Malik. If it weren't for the fear that the movement would be too big, the target task would be too sensitive and easy to attract attention, and they were worried that they would completely force New Regar to the side of Hydra and cause unnecessary and unpredictable consequences, they would have mobilized the personnel of S.H.I.E.L.D. lurking in Hydra to expose New Regaard's identity. But now that New Rhaegar has said this, it seems that he has no intention of falling to Hydra?
After all, Coulson is a person who is used to seeing big scenes, and he immediately came back to his senses: "Most of the time, the surname represents bloodline, and bloodline is a very important weight for human nature." However, while I was really surprised by your decision, it wasn't unacceptable when I thought about it. Agent Rhaeggar, I've heard about you and read your profile. So, is it related to your uncle who made such a decision? ”
Rhaegar gave Coulson a deep look, "I don't like the direction of this topic very much, so usually I refuse to answer this kind of question. However, you are my chief, and I don't want any misunderstanding. So, yes. I had an unpleasant conversation with that uncle. You say that bloodline is a very important weight for human nature, but you also have to admit that this sentence does not apply 100% everywhere. You should think that I gave up something that did not belong to me in exchange for what I had worked so hard to obtain and that belonged to me. That's it. ”
Listening to Rhaegar's words, Coulson thought for a moment, nodded solemnly, and then laughed.
"I'm sorry for the unpleasant thing you said. Also, I'm sorry I digressed. I just remembered that it was a meeting between the players. Well, you've just met Agent Ward, and you're 'mingling' with him so quickly. It's good and I like the harmonious team atmosphere. ”
Rhaegar nodded in response.
"And then this is Mei, who is also from the War Department, and is considered your senior, what can you ask her." Pointing to Melinda May, Coulson began to introduce. At this point, he suddenly lowered his voice and leaned into Rhaeggar's ear: "But I have to tell you, she's a little cold, and she won't necessarily answer your questions from time to time." ”
Someone nodded again with a smile in their eyes.
Next up were Fitz and Simmons, the best graduates of the Academy's Science Division, one a rocket specialist and the other a Ph.D. in biochemistry. They will provide all kinds of scientific support to our team. And finally, Skye, yes, this one holding your dog. She's a computer hacker - a brilliant computer hacker, and she's currently on the Bus as a member of the Hydra Throat. Also, I think she deserves your trust. ”
This time, as soon as Coulson's voice fell, Rhaegar picked up.
"I think so too." Looking at Skye with interest, he said naturally.
This made Skye curious: "You seem to be sure. Why? Is there anything special about me? I guess you didn't say that to everyone, did you? I mean, everyone who isn't already a full member of Hydra. ”
"Oh yes, girl, you're special." Rhaegar laughed and said, "The little pit bull you're holding is called tetanus. Since it got on me, not counting the time when it was injected with anesthetics and locked up for blood testing, there have been 347 people who have held it so far, and most of them are pet center employees or owners who often have a lot of experience in dealing with small animals. But none of them could hold tetanus for more than half a minute. This has already counted the time spent struggling with tetanus. But you, this little guy seems to like you! It has been said that in many ways animals are more sensitive than humans. Since tetanus has 'vouched' for you, from now on, you are my friend. ”
