Chapter 948: Talk
In a villa in Huaguo HK, Edward wears a loose cardigan, holds a thread-bound ancient book and looks at it himself, while sipping on fragrant tea. Coupled with his long black hair and Asian appearance, he looks like a rich child from a scholarly family.
Nicole also wore a purple cheongsam and skillfully manipulated the teapot to make tea for Edward.
The villa was lent to him by a wealthy man who had worked with Edward, and was located in the famous Repulse Bay in HK, where Edward had been living for two weeks.
After the Battle of Kunlun, Edward successfully obtained the magic skills he wanted, and immediately began to study them.
However, he still underestimated the Chinese culture - even with Charlie's translation and explanation, he still knew little about the ancient Chinese language.
After racking his brains a few times, Edward tried his hand at cultivation, only to find that there were always many errors in his understanding. In desperation, he could only continue to stay in Huaguo, trying to understand the ancient culture of Huaguo.
Edward's fame had spread to China by this time, and after hearing that he had come to HK, many wealthy people wanted to cooperate with him. Edward chose one of the most suitable, accepted his arrangement, and lived in the villa in seclusion.
Of course, during this period, Edward read a lot of books on ancient Chinese culture, and has been trying to cultivate martial arts.
The more he went deeper, the more Edward discovered the breadth and profundity of the ancient Chinese culture, and he was very interested in this knowledge, and he was also full of expectations for the secret book of the magic that had to be complacent.
"Edward, Mr. Wang, a member of the World Security Council (the Chinese representative who appeared in Team 2, I don't know the name) is here. While Edward was fascinated, Nicole refilled him with a cup of tea.
"World Security Council?" Edward said in confusion, putting down the book in his hand, "What are they doing here? Are they finally going to talk to me?"
"I don't know. Nicole spread her hands and said, "There was news about S.H.I.E.L.D. not long ago, but the surface reports are ambiguous, you can ask Agent Coulson about it." ”
"Oh, the name of S.H.I.E.L.D. is in the news? Edward smiled, stood up and said, "Let's go, let's go and meet, life without asking about the world is not for me after all." ”
"Is that Deadpool gone?" asked Edward casually on the way to the living room.
After Wade mastered the dark light, he stayed in China for a long time before leaving for the Wakanda headquarters. When it comes to Deadpool, Nicole can't help but laugh, "This guy has eaten almost all the major cuisines in China before leaving satisfied." ”
In addition, the main structure of the Wakanda headquarters is also basically completed, and now only the decoration remains. Nicole reported.
"We're starting to call Wade, it seems you're on good terms?" Edward teased with a smile and entered the living room.
In the living room, a square-looking man was waiting there, and when he saw Edward come in, he stood up and shook hands with him, saying, "I'm glad to see you, Mr. Li." It seems that Mr. Li is still very comfortable in our country?"
"After all, I have a lot of Oriental ancestry in me. Edward said directly in Chinese.
"Ha, Mr. Li's Chinese is really authentic. With a compliment, the representative of Huaguo sat down with Edward and got straight to the point.
"Mr. Li has not watched the news lately?" said Hua Guo, "not long ago, there was a fierce battle at the six-curved wing headquarters of S.H.I.E.L.D. in Washington, D.C. The public version of the news may only see the footage of the crash of three space carriers, but I have a detailed report here. ”
As he spoke, the representative of Huaguo took out a mobile phone, and after clicking on play, the battle image at that time appeared.
"Oh, how could such a big thing happen?" said Edward after looking at it for a moment, slightly surprised.
"Yes, this war has had a great impact on our World Security Council. "Because of S.H.I.E.L.D., our World Security Council has been questioned by many sovereign countries, and we have had to stop funding S.H.I.E.L.D. and announce the dissolution of S.H.I.E.L.D." ”
"Dismantle S.H.I.E.L.D.?" Edward said with a frown, "So who's going to take care of those superheroes and our Demon Hunter Knights?"
"Mr. Li doesn't mind being supervised by us?" said the Hua delegate was a little surprised by Edward's questioning.
"Of course, any force needs supervision, especially this powerful force. "Without the power of oversight, even if we have a clear conscience, it will cause many people to be worried." ”
The representative of Huaguo laughed and said: "Mr. Li is really sensible, so my task will be much easier." ”
"That's what you're here for?" Edward laughed, "No problem, we Demon Hunter Knights are subject to the supervision of any agency. If the World Security Council deems it necessary to develop a formal process, I can send a detailed report on each operation to the World Security Council. ”
"No, Mr. Li, I don't think you understood what I meant. "What our council means is that all the personnel and equipment information of the Demon Hunter Knights will be consolidated under the council, which will be beneficial to ......."
"No way!" interrupted Edward's representative, "just because we're under scrutiny doesn't mean we're exposing our territory to the eyes of the people. The World Security Council has only the power to supervise and to make recommendations, and you can question our actions afterwards, and at the same time receive appropriate answers. But you have no jurisdiction, let alone the right to assign us. ”
"Mr. Li, please think about it. Representative Hua Guo said a little embarrassed, "Although your Demon Hunter Knights have not caused any harm to the world, your existence itself is a threat. None of the nations of the world will allow an unfettered organization like yours to exist. ”
"The Avengers are small in number and elusive, so we can't communicate with them at the moment. But unlike you, the Demon Hunter Knights, your branches in the countries of the world have developed, and over time it will always affect the countries. ”
"So, if we are good at talking, you will cut us first, so that you can set an example to those who do not obey discipline?" said Edward.
The representative of Huaguo smiled bitterly, which can be regarded as a tacit acquiescence.
"I suppose His Majesty T'Chaka of Wakanda didn't make such a request, did he?" asked Edward, staring at the Chinese representative for a moment.
"No, King T'Chaka has categorically rejected the advice of our Council and is fully supporting the Knights of the Demon Hunters. ”
"That's why I decided to be based in Wakanda. Edward said, "There is no need to discuss this matter anymore, the sovereignty of the Demon Hunter Knights will never be in the hands of politicians." ”
"If the Security Council is still entangled, then I don't mind changing the name of the Demon Hunter Knights to the Avenger Knights......"
