Chapter 205 Coulson's Worries

With Coulson's ability, he had already guessed that such a day would come.

The last time I saw the new member of Chaldea, I felt the other party's desire to control. It was undoubtedly an imperial feeling. To be honest, Coulson was deeply worried about this.

Shen He is not limited to management methods, and the idea of ​​Hydra can also be accepted by Chaldea.

The reason why he was determined to serve Chaldea, even at the expense of leaving Fury, was to be wary of this.

"With our current development potential, we do have the ability to build cities." Coulson asked tentatively, "I don't know where the chief plans to build the city?"

If it is built in the United States, it is nominally part of the United States, but if it is planned to be built on the moon or in outer space, there is no doubt that it intends to completely rule the city, and even expand its influence step by step , that is not much different from Jianguo, who can say that Attilan or Wakanda is not a city.

"I'll talk about it later." Shen He shook his head and smiled mysteriously, "In short, you should be prepared for this. If this news is released at the right time, it should have a certain effect."

"Okay." Coulson nodded.

So many words have been laid before, and I will not say anything when I reach the key point.

This is also something that rulers often do, and it was the same for Fury before. He only spoke half of what he said, and it was enough for his subordinates to be mentally prepared.

But Coulson became more and more alert.

Freedom is regarded as having the same status as "justice" in this country.

Violating freedom is no different from violating personal safety, and is no different from evil. This is also the biggest contradiction between S.H.I.E.L.D. and Hydra.

If Chaldea is determined to rule by force, it will be as big a crisis as the alien invasion, and even more serious.

Shen He didn't realize Coulson's worry.

Although he knew Coulson well, it was still difficult to see through the heart of an elite agent. In fact, he found Coulson today to say this, just as a vaccination.

The virtual reality company and the intelligence department will still be managed by Coulson, but when the sky garden rises, Coulson will have an extra boss, and Chaldea can also justifiably intervene in the management through the sky garden. And as long as the entire virtual reality company moves to the sky garden, every move of all of them will not escape the eyes of the empress.

A thing like a Noble Phantasm is one with the Heroic Spirit itself.

Looking at Coulson leaving the office, Shen He thought for a while, and felt that there was no need to talk to Tony.

Because Tony is not his subordinate, they are strictly a cooperative relationship, and based on Shen He's understanding of Tony, he will support the Sky Garden plan, because it can enhance his own strength.

Since being captured by terrorists that time, Tony has actually suffered from severe victimization paranoia.

So next, maybe you can consider the travel plan. Shen He has always been obsessed with Qiao Xinmei, and Jiang Lihua, the emperor of Lelouch's world, will also be transferred to his castle in the next few days. As the owner of the castle, always to meet

On the other hand, Coulson, who left Shen He's office, was a little preoccupied.

He is very clear that Shen He is somewhat dismissive of the freedom that Americans value, and as a Chinese, the idea of ​​emperors has been engraved in the cultural tradition, which can be regarded as deeply rooted.

Maybe it really needs to be prepared, Coulson couldn't help thinking.

Just as Coulson was thinking, a message came from his personal communicator.

It's Fury.

Counting the time, Fury will almost come to him, because after the war, the government has too many things to take into account Chaldea's attitude, and Fury has been regarded as a special correspondent with Chaldea.

Coulson thought for a while and sent a message directly.

He wishes to be able to meet Fury.

Hoping that things would not go to the worst possible stage, Coulson turned his head to look at the direction of Shen He, and sighed in his heart.

Time flies, three days have passed.

These three days can be regarded as the buffer period after the war. The areas of New York that were not affected by the war have gradually returned to normal order, but the global military alliance established in response to the war has not been disbanded.

Even countries have donated a certain amount of funds to rebuild New York's severely damaged Manhattan area.

The direct impact of the alien invasion is that the entire earth seems to have entered an unprecedented posture of unity. Even the most radical racists have to admit that all human beings are one family in front of aliens, and this has already It has become a new consensus in the international community, and even a series of agreements with this as the core have been issued.

But in contrast to this situation, the diplomatic achievements of the Kingdom of Attilan and the Kingdom of Wakanda in these three days are almost zero.

During the war, every day new countries signed various treaties with these two kingdoms that had just entered the international scene.

And once the war ended, as if it had been negotiated, various activities and the progress of the agreement were postponed, and the reasons given were also high-sounding, and no one could find anything wrong with it.

On the evening of the third day, a barbecue restaurant in the ruins of Manhattan.

Coulson, in a suit, was sitting on a chair cooking a barbecue, the grill pan in front of him was making a sizzling sound, and there seemed to be no one around.

Until Fury in a black windbreaker came over.

"You are late, you used to hate being late." Coulson swallowed a large piece of beef in his mouth.

"I just hate people being late." Fury glanced at the baking tray in front of him, picked up a fork and stuffed a piece of beef into his mouth, "I never knew you had such a technique."

"I learned it after I made a girlfriend." Coulson smiled, "And if you find out, you might send me to the ancient forest to do missions."

"It sounds like your current chief won't do this." Fury stared at his most trusted old subordinate with one eye and one eye.

"That's right." Coulson also stared into the other person's eyes. "Actually, he doesn't care about what I do, including my coming to see you. Even if he knows about it, he won't care at all."

"It's not because he trusts you." Fury seemed to sneer, "It's just because he has full confidence in himself, and he doesn't believe that you can make any decent waves."

"maybe"

Coulson had to admit that Fury was telling the truth.

The main reason why Shen He, or Chaldea, trusted him so much was their own strength.

The most powerful place in Chaldea is not the virtual reality company, let alone the so-called intelligence organization, but the powerful non-human subordinates called "followers" by Shen He.

"Tell me, what happened made you ask me to meet here." Fury forked another piece of beef and said vaguely, "Last time, you cruelly abandoned me."

The last time they met at the VR company, Ferry had a long conversation with Coulson, too.

At that point, Coulson told Fury that he had found his true worth in the virtual reality company.

"You guys, are you planning to start testing Chaldea's bottom line?" Coulson asked directly without going around the corner.

"That's right." Fury nodded very simply, and at the end, he added, "The relationship between Attilan and Chaldea is too close, and they can't even be called human beings. Wakanda still has a chance." .”

This has already been counted as a fact before our eyes.

Although Attilan's Inhumans have great value, it is impossible for them to let people study the genes of their own people.

Wakanda is different. The reason why they were suppressed together is only because the World Security Council wants to lower the price of cooperation. This kind of suppression will not last too long. The World Security Council also expects to use Wakanda's technology to enhance its own technical strength. , to fight Chaldea with Tony.

"You won't succeed." Coulson said with certainty, and at the end, he paused, "I'm just worried that your temptation will directly touch Chaldea's bottom line, and none of us can do anything about it. bear."

"What do you mean?" Fury's face darkened suddenly, "Colson, let's not go around the corner, what happened inside Chaldea?"

Ever since Coulson passed the message to him, Ferry has been having a bad feeling.

He knows his subordinates too well.

"."

Coulson was silent for a while.

He is hesitating.

He actually hopes to remind Fury in a way that is not considered betrayal, but Fury knows him too well, and it is just some ambiguous information, which may not satisfy Fury.

In the end, I still sighed in my heart.

"You should have met the new member of Chaldea, the woman named Semiramis."

"Yes, she is very dangerous." Fury also has a deep memory of the empress, "but there are many dangerous people like this in Chaldea, such as Violet, Accelerator, Misaka Mikoto Alter, and they have one The unified characteristic is the abnormal obedience to the 'Master' Shen He, and there is basically no possibility for other people to affect the 'Servant'."

As the leader of a faction, Shen He is not very powerful.

At least among his subordinates, there are many people who are stronger than him, so including the former S.H.I.E.L.D. and the current World Security Council, they have tried to directly contact the "Servants" more than once.

Whether it is their own value or the division of Chaldea, it is worth paying a huge price.

But in the end, there was little chance of success.

There have long been specialized psychological assessors who have evaluated the psychology of these followers. These beings from other worlds have shown a strong "indifference" to their world. One part is indifferent to everything in this world, and all their actions are directed by Shen He's will.

And there is evidence that the "Master" has a certain degree of coercive dominance over the "Servants".

So basically, the World Security Council gradually gave up paying attention to the followers, and instead focused on the Master.

"Semiramis is different." Coulson also gave an exact answer to Fury's question, "She, like Madame Joan of Arc, is a 'heroic spirit' of a historical figure, so I checked According to her historical data, she is the empress of Assyria, the well-known poison killer and careerist—her legend is basically consistent with her displayed character.”

"Empress." Fury couldn't help taking a deep breath.

He finally understood what Coulson meant and why Coulson came to him.

The first careerist to appear in the Chaldean faction.

big crisis.

"Even if she is the empress, she should obey Shen He's will." Fury said in a questioning tone.

The internal structure of Chaldea and the nature of the relationship between the master and the servants have always been a mystery to the outside world.

But judging from other people's situation, the Master's will seems to be absolute.

"However, the chief's will is to protect human civilization." Coulson looked down at the barbecue on the table.

He knew exactly what he was doing and that his concerns were entirely possible, so he had to do something.

Coulson, who takes Steve as his idol, has only one true belief - to protect the freedom and safety of the people.

Human development should not come at the cost of freedom.

"." Fury closed his eyes slightly.

As the director of S.H.I.E.L.D. in the past, everything has been habitually prepared for the worst.

After a while, Fury opened his eyes.

"How many people are on our side?"

He directly listed Coulson as "our" camp.

"The captain will protect freedom." Coulson is very confident about this.

"...Only Steve?" Fury couldn't help asking, "Where's the guardian? Where's Natasha? Where's Tony? Here?"

"They are actually not important." Coulson shook his head, "What matters is the will of the officer. If the officer is persuaded by Semiramis, no one can save him."

Compared to Fury, Coulson can feel the power of Chaldea more intuitively.

Chaldea was even capable of conquering the world if it cost the lives of a large number of people.

This is why he has been trying his best to prevent the outside world from touching Chaldea's bottom line.

"You mean," Fury seemed to guess, "only against Semiramis? That sounds like meddling in the emperor's harem."

"Okay, I've said enough today." Coulson did not reply, but stood up directly, "I have said everything that should be said and what should not be said, but in this special period, your You'd better be careful with your actions, if the officer has a serious dissatisfaction with you, and you are blown away by that one, the consequences will definitely make you regret it."

This warning was actually the main purpose of Coulson calling Fury over.

He knew very well how much Shen He valued his followers. The appearance of a follower like Semiramis brought too much crisis.

He has every reason to believe that it was Semiramis' suggestion that Shen He said a few days ago that he wanted to build a city, because Shen He had never shown such ambition in the past.
