Chapter 2151 The Ultimate New World (32)
"Niagara Falls is C-shaped overall." The pale finger drew an arc in the air and said, "In the ancient legends of the Indians, they believed that this was the mark left by the giant's heel."
"The information left in their murals and parchment scrolls once depicted such a story - a giant holding thunder fought with the dwarfs under his feet. The giant kept thundering down, and the dwarfs fled in panic."
"The giant thought he had won the war, so he stomped his feet happily, leaving a huge footprint on the ground, but he didn't expect that the dwarf warriors who came along the water shot the giant's heel with poison arrows, and the giant was defeated."
"The dwarf warriors who found that they had won did not see the big pit in front of them that was stepped on by the giant's heel. Their rafts went down the water and fell along the waterfall."
"It's a magical story, isn't it?"
Colson heard a hint of smile in the tone of Dr. Soship.
This is not a story that projects one's own nation onto the victor, but it is usually more typical to do so. They will say that they defeated the giant with wisdom and then celebrate the victory.
But the ending of this story is that the careless little human warriors were wiped out just because of the puddle left by the giant's stomping foot.
Coulson did feel a little weird. This story was strangely indifferent and objective.
Although Coulson is not a scholar, he can vaguely feel that the giant in this story actually represents the power of nature, and the little people are the life living in nature.
Generally speaking, this kind of story will have two styles, either completely praising the power of nature, which is strong and indifferent, constantly punishing and whipping weak lives, and not giving anyone a chance to refute.
Or conversely, it praises the tenacity and wisdom of the human race, describing how they use their calm minds and extraordinary wisdom to defeat nature.
But this story is a bit complicated. It represents that although the giants of nature are powerful, they are also attacked by negligence. Although the dwarfs are smart, they are annihilated just because of a moment of paralysis.
But for some reason, Coulson felt that this story was very realistic. Nature is great and ruthless, but not completely invincible. Humans are full of wisdom and courage, but as long as a small mistake, they will lose everything.
"Do you also think that this supernatural phenomenon comes from the curse of the Indians, doctor?" Coulson asked.
Coulson stood beside Dr. Soship and walked with him on the path in front of Niagara Falls.
Many supernatural enthusiasts rushed out from them with their equipment. Facing the increasingly thick fog, they all seemed very excited.
Coulson carefully observed the man's expression, but did not find anything strange, or the biggest strange thing was that he was too calm.
"Mr. Coulson, did you sleep well?"
Here we go again, the weird topic change, full of mysterious metaphors, and the strong British accent, made Coulson start to feel a headache.
"I didn't have time to sleep. After we went back, we packed our luggage, and then we saw that it was foggy outside. I wanted to drive to Maple Leaf Avenue to have a look."
"See the maple leaves?... Very interested."
The low voice with the heavy British accent was still clear in the noise of the waterfall. For some reason, Coulson felt that the doctor knew what they had encountered.
"Well, we did encounter something." Coulson decided to confess because he wanted to win over the only ally who looked somewhat professional. Otherwise, what else could he do? Go and win over those psychic enthusiasts?
The rich experience of agents made Coulson feel that Indians were not the right answer, and this Dr. Hissop might be able to give them what they wanted.
"We wanted to drive to Niagara Falls to enjoy the night view, but the car drove into a thick fog..."
Colson began to tell his story, but he combined the two experiences of being mistakenly in the thick fog and showed the characteristics of the fog world as much as possible.
Then he saw Dr. Hysop raised his eyebrows, nodded and said, "It seems that my guess is correct."
Colson leaned forward with an interested expression, and then he took out the posture of a reporter hearing big news and said, "To be honest, doctor, the Indian curse outside is too common. If you can give a more reliable statement, the remuneration is not a problem."
But Coulson only saw the pair of light brown eyes staring at him, and the eyes seemed to be looking at him, and also like looking at what is under his skin.
Colson shuddered, and just when he was about to say something, the other party retracted his gaze and said.
"I hope you can answer a question for me first."
"What?"
"What is in New Mexico?"
Colson broke out in a cold sweat.
What else can New Mexico have, of course, there is the supernatural case that Coulson handled perfectly last time, the hammer of Thor and Thor himself.
But this is a top secret case. Not only is it not announced to the public, it is also not included in any professional database. All witnesses have been silenced.
But in fact, there are few witnesses to this matter. The place in New Mexico is almost no man's land. No one knows the inside story except the relevant agents.
Do these so-called folklorists like to go to uninhabited places and spend ten years waiting for an alien? This is obviously impossible.
Since the news was not leaked and he did not see it with his own eyes, how did this doctor know Thor's hammer?
Suddenly Coulson thought of something, that is, the meaning of the name of Niagara Falls in Indian language, thunder roar or thunder roar.
Is this matter related to Thor?
Wait, which Thor is it?
Although the current Thor is Thor, Odin, the father of the gods, is also known as the master of thunder, combined with the story of the giants and the dwarves.
So the giants are Odin, and the dwarves are Indians?
But how can Indians defeat Odin? This is no longer an ant fighting an elephant, this is a paramecium fighting a Homo sapiens. The evolutionary levels of the two are not at the same level, and no matter how smart they are, it is useless.
But the description of a giant holding thunder really sounds like Odin, but I have never heard that Odin has the ability to cause thick fog.
No, my thinking is a bit limited. Think about the previous time when Thor's hammer fell from the sky, but it hit the ground and couldn't be picked up, and it caused many strange phenomena. Will it be the same this time?
Did something happen in Asgard again, and then something fell?
The more Coulson thought about it, the more possible it was, because he didn't think there was anything on Earth that could achieve the effect of time and space travel like the fog world.
Agents of Coulson's level all know the existence of the Supreme Sorcerer and Kamar-Taj, and understand how the Earth's defense network works. Kamar-Taj didn't respond, which means that this thing should not be a deliberate invasion.
If it is not a deliberate invasion, it is so powerful and can cause a large-scale strange phenomenon. It can only be an artifact that fell on the Earth by chance.
Thinking of this, Coulson's heart was burning. When Thor's hammer fell, they really had no way to do it, because Odin cursed the hammer. No one could lift it except those who were recognized by Thor's hammer.
But if this is another artifact left by Asgard or some other powerful alien civilization, then SHIELD may have a chance to contain it.
SHIELD is not doing charity. They contain those powerful and dangerous supernatural objects, and they don't just put them there, but make full use of their powerful abilities.
The director will definitely be very happy, Coulson thought, but he must get more information from this doctor. The way of using rhetoric is no longer effective.
Coulson stood still, turned around and sighed, took out his ID from his pocket and flashed it to the person opposite him, saying: "Special Agent of the Strategic Homeland Defense Attack and Logistics Support Agency, Phil Coulson."
"Doctor, since you have learned about some events that happened in Mexico State, let's not beat around the bush. This incident may be somewhat similar to the incident in Mexico State, but the impact is greater. Can you explain the story you just told me?"
The man opposite him was not surprised at all. He still stood there with a calm expression and looked at Niagara Falls and said.
"In a disaster, the god fell, and he left his mark on this land. Maybe that's what you are looking for."
"Where is it?" Coulson asked immediately.
The man walked to the guardrail of the path and stood there silently. Coulson walked up and stood side by side with him. There was only Niagara Falls in his sight.
A few minutes later, Coulson walked down the steps quickly. Several people on the side looked at him and said, "How is it? Did you get any useful information?"
"May, take your equipment and follow me. We have to get close to the waterfall." Coulson waved to his assistant and said.
Without saying a word, May immediately took her things and prepared to leave, but Simmons stopped them. She looked at Coulson and asked, "What's the matter? Where are you going?"
Coulson didn't say anything, just touched the gun on his waist and walked forward, pointing at them and said, "Don't worry about the equipment, we will be back soon."
Coulson came to the closest part of the path to the waterfall at the fastest speed, but there was still a certain distance here, so he directly climbed over the guardrail and took May to the bottom of Niagara Falls.
The further you go in, the thicker the fog becomes. When you get close to the Niagara River, the fog is so thick that you can't see anything.
Coulson hesitated a little. He felt that he should bring more people, but when he thought that it was just an initial exploration, there shouldn't be any danger, so he took a step and suddenly saw the light.
There was no fog directly below Niagara Falls, and it was the clearest place among all the places where the strange phenomenon occurred. What was even more strange was that the fog outside did not block the moonlight. On the contrary, it amplified the moonlight, making this place exceptionally bright.
Coulson looked up and saw that the waterfall was very magnificent and the noise was so loud that it was unbearable. Fortunately, they had put on special earplugs before, so they only had to deal with the impact of sound waves.
But as he listened, Coulson found something wrong. This noise did not sound like the noise of the waterfall. There seemed to be a regular sound wave in it, which did not sound like anything in nature.
Coulson immediately pressed the headphones, and Fitz's voice came from the headphones. Coulson said, "Now I'll turn on the recording device. Can you help me analyze the sound waves where I am now?"
After getting a positive answer, Coulson immediately took out a miniature recording device from his pocket and started recording. Soon Fitz replied.
"Something is wrong, Phil, this is not the sound of the waterfall. You have to leave there. You have to... Zizi-zi ...
