Chapter 3096 Mercury Notes (Fifty-Six)
Chapter 3070 Mercury (56)
"The Olympus pantheon has little contact with the ancient Babylonian pantheon, so I don't know much about this Naboo. I only know that he is not dead and is still active on the earth." Hera said in a low tone.
"Activities on Earth?!" Dick repeated, raising his voice in surprise.
Hera nodded and said: "I don't mean to brag, but the Olympus pantheon was indeed the most powerful pantheon at that time, and many other pantheons have withered in the following tens of thousands of years and have long since become disorganized. , this is the case with the ancient Babylonian pantheon where Nabu is located, they can no longer be called gods. "
"Is there any way to find this Naboo?"
"Naboo is one of the founders of the Human Archmage Alliance. If you can find a Archmage, you may be able to find out his whereabouts." Hera continued: "As the culprit who imprisoned Hecate and put her to sleep, The culprits, the Lords of Order, must be the ones who least want the goddess of magic to return. As long as they can find Naboo, they will definitely help you with all their strength."
With the new direction, they didn't delay any longer. It would have been a bit difficult for them to find the Archmage before, but now they had a ready-made toad.
In addition to asking Faust about the whereabouts of Nabu, they actually also held some hope and wanted to know if Faust had any insights into the mysterious sun. If Faust could really control the mysterious gun, Maybe Hecate can be dealt with directly.
Hera directly used her divine power to send them back to the earth. Dick and his party gathered at Wayne Manor with Fna and Billy, who had been waiting for a long time. Dick told Faust what Hera told them.
After hearing this, Faust was silent for a rare moment, and then said: "I have heard of this Naboo god, but if nothing else, he must have had an accident."
Dick and the others immediately became nervous, and Funa squeezed the toad hard and said, "Stop showing off!"
Faust kicked his legs dissatisfied and broke away from Fna's grasp, jumped onto the table, and then said: "I'm not kidding, this Naboo probably died many years ago."
"Dead? But Hera clearly said he is still alive!"
"What I mean is that his body may have long since ceased to exist, but there is no way that such a cunning ancient god could survive in other ways."
"How do you know?"
Faust sighed, and another secret from the past was revealed to everyone. As we all know, those old and immortal archmages don't come out of the mountain not because they really take fame and fortune lightly, but because the debts they owed in the early years are too big. There are so many, and it’s not over yet, so we can only use various means to avoid creditors.
The power of the Lords of Order was given by Hecate. With Hecate asleep, they would have no creditors and their life would be so easy.
However, the goddess of magic slept longer and longer, and their power gradually weakened, and finally reached the point where they could no longer maintain their own existence.
Many years ago, a war broke out between the Lords of Order and the Lords of Chaos, this group's mortal enemy, which consumed some of the few remaining ancient gods.
This war is very famous in the occult world. Faust, who is constantly collecting magic items from all over the earth, has also passed them by. As the most powerful one among the Lords of Order, Naboo has never been involved again since then. There was no news, and the magic world believed that he had died in this war.
Faust thought for a while and then said: "At that time, because they were worried that the war would affect their people, a certain generation of Night Masters participated in it. He might know the whereabouts of Naboo."
Unexpectedly, these clues went around and back to the original point, and Dick had to lead the team to the Forgotten Bar again.
Night Master Jim warmly welcomed them, and after hearing about their experiences along the way, Jim said: "Yes, Naboo is indeed dead. To be more precise, his body has been destroyed. Now His soul resides in the helmet he wore during his lifetime, and the helmet resides in Dr. Fate, the spokesman of the Lord of Order."
"So where is Dr. Fate now?"
Jim looked at them rather strangely, and then said, "If you want to find Dr. Fate, you shouldn't come to me, but to Professor Schiller?"
"ah?"
Dick and the others looked at each other in confusion, wondering why they came back to Professor Schiller.
Jim said with some surprise: "You don't know? Nelson is a well-known psychiatrist, and he is from the same school as Schiller. He is his junior brother. The relationship between the two of them is much closer than that of us."
Dick's mouth was wide enough to fit a whole egg, so this series of puzzles came full circle, and the answer was still written at the beginning!
"I have never heard Professor Schiller say that he has any junior disciples..." Aisha was also shocked.
"Maybe it's because Nelson is younger and works in Metropolis." Jim shrugged and said, "And I remember he said that Schiller was going to Gotham at that time. There were some conflicts, so there will be no further contact.”
Jason covered his mouth, because he usually interacted with Schiller the most, so he knew some old memories. At that time, Schiller went to Metropolis before coming to Gotham. No one knows why he went to Metropolis yet. Is it possible? Could it be that he really went to see his junior brother?
No matter what, this Dr. Destiny Nelson must be the key figure. They rushed back to Gotham without stopping and headed to Metropolis as quickly as possible.
But the more troublesome thing is that although Tim retrieved the identity information of Kent V. Nelson, this guy worked in Luther Hospital, and Tim was not sure that he could contact him directly without being discovered by Lex Luther.
If he was caught, Lex might not dare to do anything to Bruce. He was very generous to him and gave too much. Tim was afraid that he could not control himself. If he was also pried away by Lex, Bruce would go crazy.
Dick also felt that since he worked in someone else's hospital, it would not be good to suddenly come to the door without the boss's knowledge. It was necessary to inform Lex about these things. Business is business, and Lex is still trustworthy in protecting the earth.
So they went to Luther Manor.
Lex received them in his busy schedule. He always had a bad relationship with Bruce, but he was still good to his good nephews and prepared a large table of delicious food.
The Young Avengers team, which had been running for several days, finally had time to sit down and feast on supplies.
Dick and Lex talked about the process of their team building and the process of collecting clues along the way. Lex nodded frequently and said that he could sponsor the Young Avengers team.
Dick thought it was good to have one more person to sponsor, and the scope of activities of the Young Avengers team would definitely not be limited to Gotham, but basically cover the entire East Coast, including Metropolis, and could help Lex. This sponsorship was not too hot to get.
It was not until he saw the amount of sponsorship that Dick realized what Tim meant by always asking them to stay away from Lex. He really gave too much.
After eating and drinking, the group discussed in Luther Manor. The topic was mainly about the Hecate crisis. Luther affirmed Dick's inference along the way, and then talked about Doctor Fate.
"When I investigated Kent Nelson's background, I knew that he and Professor Schiller were from the same school, and their research directions were very similar. Professor Schiller was better in academic level, but Dr. Nelson was better in the application field. He can be said to be the best psychiatrist in the world."
Lex put his five fingers together, tapped them lightly and said: "Nelson is much younger than Schiller. Apart from being from the same school and having similar research directions, they should have no intersection."
Jason immediately thought of the fact that Schiller had been to Metropolis before coming to Gotham. He said: "I heard that Dr. Nelson was very opposed to Professor Schiller going to Gotham."
"I don't know where you heard it from, but I don't know about their personal relationship. If you want to go to him, be prepared that he won't help."
Dick and the others didn't understand what Lex meant by this. After all, they were prepared that no matter who they asked for help, they would not help.
Helping is not an obligation. Even if it is related to the safety of the earth, it is normal for the other party not to help for various reasons. They don't engage in moral kidnapping - they choose to kidnap directly.
But apparently they thought the matter was too simple. Nelson was not only unwilling to help, he took action directly.
In the office of the psychiatric department of Luther Hospital, a bright golden light flashed. Before Dick and the others could see the man's face clearly, a golden helmet appeared on his head, followed by a blue and gold uniform, and a golden beam of light flew towards them.
Raven waved his hand, and the magic shield blocked in front of him. Aisha grinned, showing her fangs fiercely, and rushed towards Doctor Fate.
Doctor Fate did not choose to fight with them here, but turned and flew out of the window. Raven hurriedly followed, and the two sides fought back and forth over Metropolis.
Dick stood in front of the window anxiously. Funa stuffed the toad to Jason. Now Faust could not use magic power, and he was not afraid that he would run away. Then he turned around and joined the battle.
It can be clearly seen that Raven is strong enough, but lacks combat experience. Funa is good at fighting, but her strength level is far inferior to that of Doctor Fate. On the contrary, Aisha, because of her special existence, cannot be hit, and her head buzzes when she is touched, which restricts Doctor Fate.
Dick followed Raven's figure with his eyes, but Jason had already started to make a phone call. He called Lex and said to the other side: "Nelson directly took action. I don't understand what deep hatred he has with us, but if he doesn't stop, your hospital may have to be renovated..."
Not long after, Doctor Fate, who had just dodged Aisha's headbutt, dodged to the side, picked up the ringing mobile phone, nodded to the phone, and hung up the phone in a bad mood after a while and flew back to the office.
When the helmet was taken off, everyone was shocked. This guy was about the same age as them, and he looked like he had just graduated from college. He was too young.
This young man has blond hair and blue eyes, and looks quite sunny, but his eyes are not so friendly when he looks at Dick and the others, and he looks at Aisha with fear.
Dick and the others were confused. Didn’t they say that they were from the same school as Professor Schiller? They are two generations apart, right?
“From the same school means that we have the same teacher, and age has nothing to do with it, understand?”
Nelson’s voice sounded in their ears, and Dick was startled and said, “Can you read minds?”
“This is not mind reading, it’s psychology.”
“You are indeed from the same school as Professor Schiller.”
