Chapter 408 Hill's Choice
Ethan floated high in the sky, looking at the paradise island that had become very small under his feet, feeling the cold and strong wind in the high altitude, and felt that a layer of frost had hung on his body.
Taking a light breath, Ethan realized that he couldn't continue to climb upwards, unless he released his magic power to form an energy protection layer, and then his body would feel uncomfortable—not hurt, just uncomfortable. This means that in the area below this height, your body can exert 100% of its full strength, and no matter how high it is, it will be affected.
This kind of influence may not be big, but the height of the real fight will change constantly in the air, and he is not sure whether the influence will suddenly increase, so in order to avoid that situation, determine a warning line early, and once you get close to the warning line, You must strengthen your own protection.
"Go back first!"
The life on Paradise Island is very comfortable, and with the beautiful scenery and abundant food, everyone is very happy. They regard this as a vacation. Appropriate ground activities for relaxation.
This is also the reason why Ethan often takes everyone to other worlds. Even if Prince Eugen is a mess today, as long as it's not a stormy weather, he won't have that kind of strong discomfort. Still will keep doing it.
He descended from high altitude and finally landed on the beach lightly. No one paid much attention to him. During this time, Ethan has been in contact with flying. No matter how magical things look for a long time, he will lose his curiosity. .
The only one who has been paying attention to him for a long time is Maria Hill, the newly added temporary member. She stood here waiting for Ethan to return, and greeted him specially when he landed.
Looking at Maria Hill, who was dressed less casually than others, Ethan knew that she must have been observing her flight data just now. Keep these data in mind, and write them down in some secret book when you go back.
As the deputy director of S.H.I.E.L.D., Maria Hill has always been highly valued by Nick Fury, but this does not mean that she and Nick Fury can agree on many concepts.
Even a lot of Nick Fury's ideas didn't meet Hill's expectations, especially his attitude toward superheroes.
Nick Fury will appropriately release some benefits to these superheroes, and even give a lot of privileges, in order to win these superheroes to stand on the side of SHIELD and become a boost for SHIELD.
Hill has always been opposed to this kind of behavior. In her eyes, superheroes are also a group of criminals - the law is the law, and the other party should not be treated differently because of their special abilities.
She believes that the rules should be followed when they are made. No one should violate these rules for any reason. Once someone regulates the rules, they should be punished; and what many superheroes do is essentially violating or even ignoring the rules. , she can't wait to catch all these guys.
At the same time, she agrees with Nick Fury's suspicion of everything, being vigilant about everyone, and keeping a backhand style in advance.
For example, when she came out this time, she observed Ethan up close, recorded the details of Ethan's strength in detail, and then made a detailed response plan when she went back to avoid a day when Ethan really endangered their world, S.H.I.E.L.D. of any institution has no means of coping.
Although S.H.I.E.L.D. no longer exists, Maria Hill will still not give up her ideas. She will go on firmly and do everything she can to protect her world.
"You can relax a bit here."
"I'll relax when it's time to relax."
Ethan shrugged, and he couldn't do anything about Hill maintaining himself in a 'working state', she was here to work.
"You have also been on the ship for a while, and you should have realized that I have no ill will towards your world."
Hill nodded, and she agreed. Ethan did not have any ill will towards their world, because she had already noticed that Ethan wanted to use his world as a logistics base for development.
From this point of view, the two sides have even more possibilities for cooperation:
Ethan can walk on multiple cosmic planes. Even if other worlds are not considered, the pure ocean world has enough magical resources to develop, just like some of the magic stone technology that Tony has already obtained, the technology for the application of energy. It can increase the civilization level of the earth a lot.
Not to mention anything else, with an extra layer of energy protection, weapons such as soldiers or aircraft and warships can exert stronger combat effectiveness, and even in the face of Asgard's invasion, they are no longer powerless to resist.
Considering that Ethan wants to develop that world into a logistics base, then a stable rear is definitely more useful than a chaotic one, so in a way, Ethan will even help them protect the earth - because the two sides are in To a certain extent have the same interests.
Thinking of this, Maria Hill's attitude towards Ethan is a little bit better - she is still very taboo towards users of supernatural abilities, so she wants to become a true friend in a short time. It's impossible, and it's not bad to have this level of friendship.
This is thanks to the fact that Ethan's team doesn't have that kind of weird existence. Serena and Logan are both stubborn and tofu-hearted. On the surface, they ignore people, but when you need help, they are more dedicated than anyone else.
Immorton and Ansuna are the most 'arrogant', but they put their positions very clearly, and under the current situation, they will not provoke Hill without thinking.
As for O'Connor, Jonathan, and Evelyn, those three are just cute except for being funny, and other than that, they are ordinary people, and Hill has no pressure to get along with them.
The only one who is not very easy to get along with is Annette. This kind of research madman and her agent lack a common language, but as long as she does not disturb her research, Annette will not take the initiative to trouble anyone.
Ada...
She felt an aura similar to that of Black Widow in this woman, and she also knew that this woman was an elite spy specially invited by Ethan, obviously to facilitate the team to collect various intelligence information when going to a strange world.
All in all, Maria Hill has been living happily on the Prinz Eugen during this period. Ethan's companions did not reject her because she was a temporary member. Maybe this is also different from the previous team. There will always be temporary members. Member related? Even now, O'Connor and the others haven't completely identified their position, so how can they have the confidence to reject newcomers?
Life was pretty happy, and he was barely friends with a few people. Ethan felt that the time was almost up, and began to ask about Maria Hill's plans.
He has asked several people about similar questions during this period of time, and everyone's answers are similar, and they all need to be considered.
Maria Hill is the only one that does not need to think about it. She has clear tasks and ideas. What Ethan is asking is not a general goal. What he wants to ask is whether Hill has any thoughts on his own strength?
"Although you are only a temporary addition to our team, there are some situations that have to be taken into account."
Ethan and the others are out of sync with the passage of time in the Marvel universe. For Nick Fury and the others, Hill is only on a business trip for a few months or a year, and she may have passed years or even decades here.
Such a long time can turn a child into an adult, or let an ordinary person finish his life.
Presumably Nick Fury is also not happy to send the girl who is at the pinnacle of her upright life to study, and in a blink of an eye she becomes an older grandmother than herself.
"So I can also use the enhanced potion you made?"
It's no secret that enhanced potions are used on the Prinz Eugen. Everyone on board has used them. Everyone often discusses the specific effects of potions. Jonathan, who likes to brag, is not shy about his own changes. Everyone is discussing how to be better. She never avoided her when she was on provocative drugs.
"why not?"
Hill frowned, she didn't expect to get such a big benefit so soon? Is Ethan trying to win over himself?
Seeing her expression, Ethan smiled and shook his head: "You have made some mistakes. You may think this potion is very precious, but it's nothing to me."
It is similar to the nature of the army sending a full set of equipment and daily necessities to newly recruited recruits. In Ethan's eyes, the primary and advanced strengthening potions are such things.
Of course, this is still a very precious item for Hill, after all, the value of the item depends largely on how much the other party wants it.
Of course, Hill wanted to get the potion to strengthen herself, but she thought that she needed to make some credit for the team to get it, but she didn't expect that they would directly distribute it as a standard ration.
"You may think this potion is very effective, but for me, this thing can only provide you with a good enough basic condition, you still need to consider your own learning direction, which area do you want to work hard for? ?"
Be a mage like Ethan? Or be a pure warrior? Or learn the energy of light to become a paladin or priest? Although Ethan doesn't know much about it, it's not impossible to want to be a shaman.
The choices Ethan proposed are not absolute. She can learn all the knowledge she is interested in. After all, this is not a game world. If you choose a profession, the talent and skill tree are fixed. There are a lot of learning skills, knowledge or part-time jobs.
So these so-called career directions are just a reference. In the final analysis, they are still asking Hill what he wants to learn.
The choice given by Hill surprised Ethan, the former deputy director of S.H.I.E.L.D. took a fancy to Holy Light.
