Chapter Twenty-Four: Rose's Actions
At this moment, in the military base, the man who left was reporting to the general in front of him why he couldn't bring the White Queen back.
"Alright, I got it. It can only be said that external forces interfere. "The man in the Air Force uniform didn't blame them, who let that bunch of bugs jump out," called Stryker and Bronsky. β
"Yes, sir." The man saluted the general and left.
The general simply answered and dialed a phone from the landline on his desk.
"Hello, Lieutenant General Ross. Is it for my people to stop your squad's mission? The voice coming out of the earpiece was none other than Nick Fury, who made the general grit his teeth.
General Ross struggled to calm his mind: "I'm sure you should know how important Emma Frost is, that mutant is important to us. β
Nick Fury wasn't disturbed by General Ross's words of importance or anything like that: "Sorry, General. I don't think there's anything wrong with the proper dissuasion of our agents. They just strictly adhered to the basic qualities of an agent. β
The two men walked into General Ross's office at this moment, and just as they were about to salute, they saw General Ross shaking his hand.
The two of them had to stand there and wait for their general to finish calling.
"In other words, the White Queen is now protected by you Nick Fury, is that what you mean?" General Ross's eyes were already beginning to glow with impatience.
"General, the White Queen is not in our hands, so what are we talking about protecting or not protecting. My agent just strictly enforces ......"
General Ross didn't want to listen to Nick Fury's bullshit agent quality remarks, he only knew that because of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s obstruction, they had run away with important experimental material for a plan.
"General, is there a problem with the White Queen's arrest?" Stryker asks anxiously, who is the one in charge of the mutant project?
Bronsky, on the contrary, was indifferent, the two men were responsible for different things, and there was no personal relationship. So, what does it have to do with him.
General Ross just nodded, then ignored Stryker's stunned expression. Turning his face to Bronsky, he said, "Today, I will ask you to bring the hunting team to bring the White Queen back to me." β
"Time, place." Bronski stood up straight and said to General Ross.
"Two o'clock in the morning, New York, Brooklyn."
βYesοΌsirοΌβ
But regardless of General Rose's arrangement, Diana is sitting leisurely on the sofa with a fashion magazine "Flyover" in her arms at this moment.
Emma on the other end was a little restless.
She knew very well that she was in big trouble now, and that she couldn't recruit some gangsters or other little guys.
But it seemed to her that Diana simply didn't take what she had told her before.
"Diana, really ......"
βOKοΌOKγβ Diana flipped through the pages of the magazine in her hand, "Wait a minute. β
"Can't wait, Diana. Now those people are probably already preparing for action. Emma was a little anxious, and she didn't know where those people had conjured up something that could suppress the mutants' abilities.
Diana, who closed the magazine, stretched and showed a perfect belly line: "I know very well, Emma. β
"And you're going to take me in?"
"Yes, I am a god." Diana smiled at Emma.
"Diana, there are no gods in this world, just powerful mutants." Emma is adamant that there is no such thing as a god and that there are just powerful mutants.
The stubbornness of the blonde chick in front of her gave Diana a headache. I really don't know if it's because the X gene gives them powerful abilities, and at the same time, it also allows them to maintain a special rationality for everything extraordinary.
Even if Diana had shown some abilities, she just thought that Diana was the same reason for her multiple awakenings.
"Emma, it's okay." Diana hugged Emma and said softly, "Trust me, it won't be a problem." What you need now is a good rest, okay? β
Emma looked up from Diana's arms and was about to say something when she met Diana's gentle brown eyes.
"Trust me, Emma."
Diana's voice and her all-encompassing eyes filled with a sense of security, and Emma's heart slowly calmed down.
Then a tremendous sense of exhaustion rushed over Emma's body, and she fell asleep in Diana's arms.
A smile appeared on Diana's face. No way, Emma was so nervous that Diana could only use a little magic to allow her to relax completely.
Seeing Emma sleeping quietly in her arms, Diana could only hold up her legs and carry Emma into the bedroom with a princess hug.
Cover Emma with the quilt, turn on the air conditioner, and quietly retreat.
"Goo, you're going to sleep here tonight. Take care of yourself and the person inside. Diana left Gollum's nest outside Emma's house.
"Meow?" Goo tilted his head to look at Diana.
"Me?" Diana touched her little head, "I have to make sure that my home won't be smashed by someone who suddenly appears." β
Just as Diana was talking to Coo, there was a knock on the door downstairs.
After another grunt, Diana walked down.
As for the reason why Diana was so unhurried, just look at the long straw-like blond hair at the door.
"When did you become a salesman?" Diana looked at Thor in front of her in a black suit and smiled, "To be honest, you're not fit for this outfit." β
Thor shrugged his shoulders indifferently: "No way, work uniform." β
"Work uniforms?" Diana looked at Thor carefully.
"That's right, that bureau recruited me, and it is said that they recruited me because they thought I was stronger than you." Thor spun around in front of Diana, "I think it's pretty good. β
"So, you're on a mission now, aren't you?" Diana's tone became unusually calm.
"Ahh That's right, that's right. Thor quickly pulled out a cell phone and handed it to Diana, "This is what that Nick Fury gave you." What did he say to you? β
Diana had just taken Thor's phone and called.
"It's coming really fast."
Diana said as she pressed the answer button.
"Diana ......" Nick Fury had just started to speak when Diana interrupted him.
"Do you think Odin would have pulled your head off if he knew that his own crown prince had come to treat you as such a shady bug?" As she spoke, Diana glanced at Thor.
Thor could only touch his nose with some curtle.
"It's not about Thor, do you know what the mutant you took in came about."
"What do you want to say? She's your guy too? Diana said with some sarcasm.
"No, Diana. She's a target of the military, and I've received a message that the military is going to do something......" Nick Fury said unhurriedly.
"Alright, Nick Fury. We're not done yet, I still have the fingers of the Hand to deal with, and I've cut off one, and two pairs. With that, Diana crushed her phone and threw the pieces to Thor.
"This is the newest model in the house!" Thor had some heartache, it was like glass, it was really good. Just let Diana ruin.
"You've really fallen into Odin's prestige." Diana looked at Thor with disgust.
S.H.I.E.L.D. can also get Thor to give them a mission in less than a month.
"No, I'm S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Protoss advisor, okay?" Thor retorted, "All the gods in Midgard will go through me." β
"Huh." Diana looked at Thor and didn't speak, just sneered.
Only then did Thor realize that the gods on Midgard were not just himself and Diana. Looking at Diana, there is really no way to do what this person is going to do, after all, there is a high probability that he can't beat him, not to mention that Mjellnier is still in the hands of others.
"That ......," Thor scratched his head.
"Say." Diana always wondered if this Thor had been transferred, otherwise was this kind of sloppy behavior the megalomania?
"Can MjΓΆrnir give it to me?"
Diana smiled, "Think about why you asked me for Myornir, if it's for your little vanity." Your father did not let you go through the trials, but not for you to enjoy the joy. β
Diana closed the door with that, leaving only Thor blushing.
Thor reached out and tried to knock on the door, but eventually withdrew his hand and left.
"The hunting team is ready to go." At this moment, in a military base, Bronsky said to General Ross. Behind him was a heavily armed team of eight, standing there with their heads held high.
General Ross spoke after surveying the team.
"The action begins."
