Chapter Ninety-Nine: Nick: Tool Man, I Understand! [Below]
"Odin, the current king of Asgard, and the supreme mage of the mages protect the planet, blocking the covetousness of many external threats. They generally don't care about the human world, such as what you call war, and they don't care. Or rather, they think it's an internal contradiction. They don't need to meddle in management. Luke said.
"So, many of the myths and legends we circulate are true?" Nick Fury couldn't help but think of the Bloodline.
"Perhaps. In the words of the old bat, there was a lot of chaos before the Nine Realms. As one of the battlefields, the atrium has indeed been passed down as a myth and legend. Luke said.
"Okay, okay, what do you want me to do?"
Nick only felt tired, he felt that the recent situation was gradually getting out of his grasp, or rather out of his grasp. A lot of new threats and old troubles all came together, and he felt a sense of powerlessness to take care of one or the other. But at the same time, it also stimulated his desire to fight more and more, and he is now desperate to pull up the team in his mind. For this reason, Nick even did not hesitate to quietly form a scientific expedition team and go to the North Pole to quietly dig up an old antique.
You know, not all people are happy to see a dead man who has now become a spiritual leader miraculously come back to life. This is especially true when the leader has a particularly strong sense of justice. But the same people, there are also people who don't care about this, in their opinion, the spiritual leader of an old antique is just a puppet that was molded at that time, even if the other party comes back to life, no matter how famous it is, it has no ability to threaten their position and power.
If it is not necessary, in fact, Nick is reluctant to unfreeze the legendary captain, because he knows very well that from various information, the other party is not the same as him. Even at some point, the other person is likely to be his hinder. But he needs the other side now! He needs the other party to help him deal with the resurgence of Hydra, and he also needs the other party to join the organization he is preparing and use his personality charm to pinch the members.
In the same way, he also secretly reopened the research of the Cosmic Rubik's Cube to prepare for the war that may arrive in the future.
"Find them." Luke made his own request.
"Find them, and then?" Nick looked at Luke with a deep gaze.
"Of course, I will contact them to see if we can cooperate." Luke gestured to the ring that Nick had hidden.
"You want to do business with them?" Nick was taken aback by Luke's idea. He looked at Luke with a strange expression, not knowing what to say about his whimsical thoughts. He thinks that with the size and treasures of S.H.I.E.L.D., there may be the possibility of trading with that group of mages, and even cooperating, but why should Luke? With his mechanical prosthetic leg or with a longevity elixir? Or, what other special products have been prepared?
Nick thought, and subconsciously rubbed the ring again.
It seems that Hebolen's technical reserves, S.H.I.E.L.D. really don't know the details. He knew that Luke must still have the good things in his hands that he hadn't taken out, but he didn't know how many good things Luke had in his hands that he hadn't taken out. It's like many people know that S.H.I.E.L.D. has a lot of items with special powers, but no one knows how many of these items with special powers have been collected and banned by S.H.I.E.L.D.
"Can't you?" Luke asked rhetorically. The only thing that can be earned by doing business with the government is money, and Hebelun is embarrassed to be less short of money now. On the contrary, it was the symbiote and the blood clan, whether it was the body of the two, or the history and knowledge of the two, which made Luke taste quite a lot of sweetness. He now wants to connect with the mage group, which is naturally understandable.
"Of course you can, but it's still the old rule, I'll have to intervene." Nick declared. It was fine that he didn't know about this kind of thing, but if he did, it would definitely be impossible for Luke and Hyperion to have close contact with the mage group alone. With Nick's temperament, it is best for the two sides to communicate and cooperate under the nose of S.H.I.E.L.D., which he is in charge of, and it is best to have people from S.H.I.E.L.D. present and involved in all affairs.
If he could, Nick would even want to recruit a few mages into S.H.I.E.L.D., even if it was just as a mage advisor, which would be to expand the scope of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s business. Anyway, these supernatural energies and events can be regarded as the jurisdiction of S.H.I.E.L.D. Compared to Hyperion, Nick thinks that it represents the official and has more supernatural resources of S.H.I.E.L.D., which has more advantages!
"Of course, why do you always think I'm going to leave you and S.H.I.E.L.D. behind?" Luke gave Nick a strange look, could it be that he could still press Nick's head, or the head of the Supreme Mage, and say that you are not allowed to touch, and you are not allowed to establish any relationship? Nick's thoughts, Luke didn't bother to think about it, as long as the other party didn't interfere with his plans to gather wool.
"That's good, if you have any other information, tell me. For example, give a few places information. You can't let me go all over the world to find it for you, can you? Nick nodded with satisfaction, although it seems inevitable to be a tool man this time, but the identity of a tool man is used to taking it seriously. As long as you can get the corresponding benefits, Nick even said: the more the merrier!
Although Luke's use of S.H.I.E.L.D. is a big deal, the benefits of the follow-up are also great!
Symbiote, bloodline, self-healing potion and longevity potion, and now a mage.
For now, at least, Nick thinks he's a pleasant fit to work with Luke. The two sides cooperate with each other and then take what they need. You contribute technology, I contribute manpower, and the benefits obtained are distributed internally. Nick even kind of likes the collaboration.
"All I know is that in this city, there is a stronghold of mages. As for their base camp, it is said to be in Nepal. Luke gave the information.
"Is there anything else you haven't said?" Nick asked.
"Bring this, a simple energy detector. An energy like the Light reacts when it is close enough. This will save your agents a lot of time. Luke pushed a palm-sized black instrument off the table, "The probe is a bit of a hassle to make, the materials used to make it and the energy that drives it are special, so there's only a limit to how much I can provide." ”
"I can buy it!" Nick rolled his eyes, knowing Luke's words.
"Only accept the Bloodline as currency! Corpses are OK too. Luke was once again as good as a stream, and took out the prepared purchase instructions at the right time, which thoughtfully modified the quality of the blood clan and turned it into the purchasing power of currency.
After reading this purchase instructions, Nick was speechless, his hand trembled the paper, and he looked at Luke speechlessly: "It's already unfortunate that the blood clan has been demoted to raw materials by you, and you still want them to have monetary attributes?" It's too much! ”
