Marvel Book of Magical Events

She is already the person who sees the Guards most often in the world. However, facing a giant that is one-third taller than herself, Victoria Hand still cannot restrain her urge to hold onto things to protect herself. However, as the food was delivered to the heavy marble table in an orderly manner by the automatic machine, she felt a little more relaxed. It was not until the end of the machine's service that the commander of the imperial army, Constantine, took off the exaggeratedly gorgeous red gold helmet. Victoria ·Hand saw his face for the first time.

She felt her palms getting sweaty. This is a pure sense of humility and tension, which is the subconscious tension and vigilance deep in the animal's genes when facing creatures with a higher level of evolution. This kind of situation should not happen to a long-time agent. However, facing that calm and noble face, all the experience she had gained from her past experiences lost its effect. It was even difficult to look into his eyes. Victoria Hand recalled that she seemed to never be able to accurately recall the emperor's face, but her subconscious told her that Constantine seemed to have some similarities to the emperor. It wasn't until Constantine also picked up the tableware that the atmosphere relaxed a little, but she still couldn't take the initiative in the conversation like she did with other people.

"I thought you were younger." The head of the defense intelligence department tried to cut the too thick steak with a table knife. Although the incense smell emitted by the Praetorian Guards' power armor slightly destroyed the aroma of the delicious food, she also learned to eliminate the interference, "You haven't been around him for long, at least when he recruited me, you were still there. It doesn't exist. Logically speaking, you should be only a few years old."

Although she is not a gourmet, she has also had the experience of dining in high-end members-only restaurants, not when performing tasks, but when she thoroughly enjoyed the food. Even she could see that the plate in front of her was too big, the steak was too thick, and all the dishes were exquisite but the portions were shockingly large.

Cooking such meat requires a lot of patience and a high level of professionalism on the part of the chef. If it were not to meet the needs of the diners, there would be no need for the chef to spend all his energy on it. She couldn't help but believe that the person Constantine was going to meet today was actually another Guardsman rather than an ordinary person like her. It was just that he didn't have time to notify the kitchen to change the menu. Anyway, it was definitely not because he was worried about her being too hungry. Victoria Hand won the stage with a table knife, but she was a little hesitant. If such food was stuffed into her mouth without being divided again, would it violate some etiquette that she did not understand.

"Why did he create you? Is there anything else that he can't do that needs you to complete?" Victoria Hand used common sense to impress the people across the table with questions, if the Praetorian Guards could still be considered human beings. She barely saw any expression on Constantine's face, not even a micro-expression when breathing. The black flexible metal soft seal of the power armor was tightly attached to the rock-like muscles on his neck. Victoria could almost imagine The grinding sound those muscles make when they move.

The commander of the Guards raised his head to look at her, but there was no friction in his neck muscles.

"Yes." After closing the communication grille on the neck armor, his voice was more natural than before, "I am not young. In fact, I don't know my age. My Lord needs servants with determination, because He is so powerful that everything around him will be swallowed up by time, but he will not be affected. This is a feeling that ordinary people cannot imagine."

"Has your memory been wiped?"

"Crush, reorganize, and sublime. The body is just a carrier, and it is my soul that truly sublimates." His expression remained unchanged. "This is just to let you understand the metaphor, not the fact. The human brain cannot understand this counter-intuition." In the process, the trials I have experienced are long enough for babies to breed a family." Victoria Hand subconsciously pressed the badge on her collar. It was a tiny anti-eavesdropping device. Although she was interested in what the Praetorian had to say, professionalism dictated it. "There is such equipment here, and it's better." This action only attracted a gentle glance from Constantine, "I invited you here because I intend to reveal more secrets to you."

"You really need to do this. It's what you want to talk to me about, isn't it? About the alien star castle in Koboy's belt?" Victoria Hand put down the tableware and did not intend to continue to entangle with the food. "Now Kosovo is still During the military blockade, my people were able to find a hundred guns and a hundred people using these guns from residential areas every day. Those people were using the Stark Group's satellite communication links in order to track down the behind-the-scenes supporters. , I sent out almost a quarter of my available manpower, and an alien fortress in the Corboy Belt doesn't seem that important in comparison."

"In comparison, indeed." The Janissary agreed, "but not compared to Kosovo."

"Is it an alien fleet?" Victoria Hand asked, "We have not yet observed a large-scale alien fleet. All we can find are asteroids and gamma radiation storms."

"That's the external view." Constantine looked at her calmly, "Do you remember the Battle of New York in 2012 and the invading Chitauri fleet?"

"It's hard not to remember."

"Then did you know that when my lord destroyed the Chitauri fleet through the portal opened by the Cosmic Cube, a small amount of fleet debris passed through the portal and crashed into New York?"

"I remember the task of cleaning up the remains of the Chitauri was left to the Stark Corporation and the Pentagon."

"Yes, we all know the relationship between the Stark Group and the Pentagon. In fact, the Stark Group does not have the right to research the Chitauri wreckage. They are only responsible for digging out those things from the ruins. All collected foreign materials Star technology products will be taken away by the Pentagon. Before SHIELD was destroyed, SHIELD was also responsible for researching some of them. The Navy and Air Force also obtained a lot of research materials respectively, and many people obtained information from the military-industrial complex. interests." Constantine also put down the tableware and placed his hands gently on his knees, "Do you remember General Fisher?"

"Former four-star general in the Air Force? I remember he was arrested for corruption and bribery."

"He is a product of HYDRA, Dr. Danny Whitehall's staff, and Project Paperclip. When the Pentagon was cleaning up the remnants of Alexander, General Fisher was not under our protection. Before that, he accepted Zita After studying and sorting out Rui’s wreckage, he unearthed an item from it, and it was that item that informed us of the existence of the alien star fort in the Corboy Belt.”

"I'm curious." Victoria Hand narrowed her eyes, "Who has that thing now?"

"That is a machine that uses pan-dimensional technology. It is not large, but it can transfer at super-light speed within the galaxy. General Fisher found a way to repair the machine, but he had no chance to find a real use. Until a Hydra who bowed to our Lord was protected, took over General Fisher's previous plan and discovered it, and contacted the aliens in the Corboy Belt star fort through that machine. Just like you As we all know, Latovinia's most powerful deterrent is the teleportation strike. That machine is consistent with our teleportation strike principle, but what is surprising is that ordinary people can actually do it without protection. Send it multiple times next time.”

"Hale!" Victoria Hand said the name as if squeezing out venom, "Is she also a Hydra?"

Constantine ignored her personal emotions. According to the data, Victoria Hand had a relatively harmonious cooperative relationship with General Hale, who was still a one-star general at the time. At that time, SHIELD had a good relationship with the United States and could frequently borrow military bases from the US military. "It was an alien trade alliance headed by the Kree. A very fragile alliance, composed of humble careerists in the Kree Empire and several other weak races that should have disappeared long ago. They promised to bring the Earth to the Rescue from the coming alien fleet attack only requires the resources and population of the earth. As you can imagine, this is a scam, they do not have this ability."

"What do you want me to do?"

"Arrest those members of the alien trade alliance and rob the star fort." Constantine said, "I will give you specific permissions and equipment, and also inform you of all the information you need. We can collect information from those aliens Information about the alien fleet can be obtained from the population, such as shipboard weapons, hull armor materials, combat capabilities of other alien races except the Chitauri, etc. All information will play a role in the decisive battle."
