Chapter 44: The Meeting of Fate
"This is the keel? Something strange looks like it. ”
Luke Cage touched his chin and said, the keel in front of him was crystal clear, as if it was made of white jade, and it was still a little warm when held in his hand.
"That's it?"
Fox asked with some confusion, this one is not worth the Hand Club's desperate efforts to open up overseas markets.
"No, there's a complete keel underneath, but it takes gas to get it out, and if I hadn't embodied it, you might not have been able to see it."
Luke explained.
"It's so amazing that this thing can bring people back from the dead and prolong their lives?"
Fawkes said suspiciously, the five fingers of the Hand said that they had a lifespan of hundreds of years, but no one had ever seen it properly.
Luke smiled, "Of course it's true, but you may need some specific ritual spells or something, this doesn't matter, just go back to Kunlun and ask for one, I believe they will be happy to give it." ”
"It seems that Kunlun is going to be unlucky again."
Luke shook his head helplessly.
Luke added: "The ground where the keel is located happens to be one of the Hand industry, but it seems that Murakami hasn't found the keel yet, there is no one to defend it, and when Erica and Matt come back, we will be able to completely take control of the shop." ”
"That's a good feeling! It's better than guarding an empty store. Luke lamented, "Ever since we killed Kim and Mrs. Gao, Hell's Kitchen has seen another purge from the police and military. ”
"Now the only active Russian gangs have moved to Canada in the north. Only a few small gangs that have not been able to relocate are still living here. ”
"Good! This news must be known to Lawyer Ma immediately! His dream for many years has come true, and he can follow us with confidence in the future! ”
Luke clapped his hands, this is good news, even if there are some trash fish left, it must not be as crazy as when Kim was alive before.
It's everyone's job to clean up the community!
Fox nodded in agreement, then looked at Luke, "Luke, how are you going to spend the two billion?" ”
Hearing this, Luke also cast a curious gaze.
From the Hand to taking away Tony Stark, the two of them have contributed, but the roles are all dispensable, even if they are replaced by other people, it will not matter.
They were still a little curious and worried about Luke's assignment.
"Since this is said, our team should also be officially put on the agenda, so as to prepare for the next big battle as soon as possible."
Luke said solemnly.
"The big battle ahead? Are you really ready to revolt in the United States? ”
Fawkes' first reaction was to ask directly.
"No, no, no! Now is not the time. ”
Luke flatly refused, "I'll give you two choices, one person 100 million, and leave safely." ”
"Second, it is completely tied to me, these two billion are just the beginning, we need money, but not all for money, for example."
"You've seen Tony Stark's sharp-edged armor and the mysterious aura of the Hand Clan, but what if I said it's just the tip of the iceberg on the sea?"
"You mean there are more powerful people hiding in the shadows?"
Fox said as if he didn't understand.
"It doesn't have to be in the shadows, in the next two decades, all kinds of crises will arise one by one, and you."
"A tin man, a killer who can shoot at points, how can he resist?"
Fawkes was tempted to ask Luke what a killer could shoot at all, but he was really shocked by Luke's growing strength.
The two fell silent, not knowing for a moment whether to believe what Luke said, but they also saw Luke's performance all along.
Again and again, the almost crazy behavior has brought huge gains to himself and others, and there is also mysterious growth, can't Fox and Luke Cage see that Luke's ability is suddenly very similar to their own?
This man does have something.
“... So what do you mean? ”
Fawkes looked at Luke, expecting his response.
"It's very simple, I want us all to live comfortably, we don't have to look at the face of S.H.I.E.L.D., we don't need to look at the face of Hydra, no matter how strong the danger is, it can't threaten our safety, even the most powerful country in the world will retreat in front of us!"
"The invincible overlord of the universe will also leave the scene in front of us, and only eternity and victory will be engraved on our shoulders!"
Finally, Luke looked at Fawkes, "If this is fate, then our encounter is fate." ”
Luke never asks about the past of the two, Luke Cage has been in prison for a long time, and Fawkes used to be a stupid killer who is superstitious about a textile machine.
The name of that loom is destiny.
Fawkes opened his mouth, his pupils dilated, and he couldn't say a word.
Luke looked at Luke Cage, "What do you mean?" ”
Luke Cage was stunned, and suddenly laughed and scolded: "Fake! It's a loss for you not to do insurance! I agree! ”
"I'll listen to you in the future, boss!"
Luke's teachable expression nodded, "The United States and the former Soviet Union both have corresponding super soldier serums, if the opportunity is right, you will also have one, maybe it is the same as Captain America." ”
"Captain America!"
This is a character engraved in a history book.
"What about you?"
Luke looked at the beautiful homeless woman.
Fox smiled, "For the sake of you having two billion, I promised to join the gang." ”
"Friends, welcome to the side of victory!"
Luke raised his glass and said, the two of them were finally firmly bound to him, it took some effort, but it was worth it.
Luke Cage's potential is more than that, it's a bit of a humiliation to be a street hero here, not to mention Fox, it's Luke's Goldfinger's secret, even if you use a strong one, you have to tie her up.
It's a good thing to be able to convince them now.
After the celebration, Luke looked at the keel in his hand, which had another purpose before turning into dragon qi and absorbing it.
Matt's eyes, it's time to treat him.
The keel can be resurrected, but it is still visible?
Two days later, Matt and Erica arrived in New York, and the Tokyo side had already been arranged, although the loss was huge, but it was a drop in the bucket in front of Luke's two billion.
Now it is natural to regain control of Hell's Kitchen and complete some basic industrial upgrades, in short, with a new leader, it is natural to have new goals.
Luke wants to make the Hand Club one of the top 10 dedicated, law-abiding and tax-paying justices in the United States.
Although the strength of the ninjas is not very good, it is enough to face ordinary people.
And the ability to infiltrate, assassinate, and spy on intelligence is also good, which is still very useful before mastering the Winter Soldier and the Red House.
