Marvel Book of Magical Events

Salomon held little Lorna's hand tightly, fearing that she would jump out and disappear without a trace if he let go.

As I said before, Salomon will not hide what he has done from his potential followers, so little Lorna insists on seeing the children rescued by Salomon. It's just that Salomon didn't allow her to appear directly in the children's residence, but observed through the network in his office and the cameras placed there. "Malnutrition, disease, fear, and language barriers. According to the previously established procedures, we should reduce their mental stimulation now." Salomon lowered the brightness of some window screens so that little Lorna could see his office computer clearly The picture on the screen, "So we released the sedative gas through the ventilation duct. Although the dose is not large, it can soothe the blood vessels and nerves and keep them from being scared to death by themselves."

"Simple and rude, but effective." Little Lorna nodded, "Then what are you going to do next? Who is this woman?"

"Ah, Ms. Romanov, I didn't expect you to come so soon!"

"I have to do something before you throw these kids into the lab!" Natasha Romanov pushed open the door and sat down across from the oak desk. This operation in the Immortal City has no level of secrecy. It is normal for Natasha Romanov to use her authority to learn about this matter, and Salomon is not too surprised. "You've suffered from the actions of NATO troops, but I didn't expect you to take people captive," she said. "It's far more radical and daring than establishing African colonies before. Hello, girl. "

Romanov asked Salomon why there was a minor here.

"Don't pay attention to her, she is not one of your children who is protected like cotton candy."

The girl shook off Salomon's hand angrily, but the mystic didn't care. It's normal for adolescence to be a little rebellious and emotionally unstable.

"Let me repeat to you again. I freed them from hunger and fear, I gave them the right to live and human dignity, and at the same time I will use whips and books to educate them, so that they can shoulder the future of the human race I can say this even if Steve Rogers comes, if Tony Stark thinks his Avengers can solve all problems, let him see his military-industrial complex bred out of greed What a mess. If I could, I'd pour flamethrower fuel into their ears and clean their brains, I'm sure it would be good for their lives."

"Where are the parents of these children?"

"I don't think they need their parents very much in their future lives, and they don't think about them." The mystic was blunt about his atrocities. "The potion produced by the biological laboratory can make them dilute their stupid and worthless past. , and then devote themselves to the lessons. The Immortal City will be a safe haven, which is better than letting them be god-praising, trigger-pulling and heretic-killing fools. You guessed it, They will be wiped out of their individuality, and become loyal, steadfast and outstanding human beings who abide by their duties, and pursue the freedom of the group instead of the stupid individual freedom."

Obviously, Natasha Romanov could not accept this approach, because the approach of the Immortal City reminded her of the Red House. It's just that the only thing she can be sure of is that the establishment of the Immortal City is not for personal gain, and this is the only place that makes her feel gratified.

"The Immortal City will establish an academy system to screen them through military training and cultural courses." The mystic turned out a 300-page document from a drawer and handed it to her. "This is the course schedule. Courses The progress is very scientific, and after graduation, these children will be absorbed by various departments of the Immortal City, and they will play a role in the field they are best at."

"Latin, military training, and a little art class?"

Salomon nodded.

"Teaching in the college will be very strict, without the loose atmosphere of public schools, and corporal punishment will be allowed. They will get the best teachers, the best equipment, and their lives will be dedicated to all mankind. Dedication, they will become steel and guns. I know you are going to talk about heroism again, but the fact is that the so-called heroes are actually ordinary people who stand up."

"Don't you count what you have done?" The agent said helplessly, "Every move of yours may affect the fate of thousands of people, just like what you are doing now. I am not Deny your behavior, but you seem to be very anxious as if something terrible is about to come, preparing by any means. This is not the way of ordinary people, Salomon, I really can't judge your behavior is good or bad."

"I don't need others to judge, Natasha."

Hearing what Salomon said, the annoyed little Lorna sneered.

"But you are right about one thing, and that is that disaster is coming, and I must do everything possible to ensure the continuation of the human race. This is my duty, and I will not be afraid because I have assumed the fate of thousands of people I never said that I am a hero, I am just a human being, and the future is definitely not my responsibility alone, I need everyone to contribute their own strength." The mystic glared at the girl who was trying to tear down the stage, " This is the basic difference between me and the Avengers. It's not something that can be explained by 'we tried our best', but 'we must win'. If the Avengers oppose my approach, thinking that they can rely on their weakness The spirit shoulders the fate of all mankind, and would rather let mankind surrender than resist by all means... Then I will solve this problem first. We cannot afford to lose, and the Avengers are not qualified to give up resistance on behalf of mankind. Understood."

The air fell silent, and little Lorna crossed her legs contentedly, flipping through the boring ledger of the Immortal City.

This topic has come to an end. Natasha Romanov does not want to spend time discussing sociological issues, nor does she want to stir up Salomon's anger and make him turn around and kill the Avengers. "Then what is this piece of paper?" She picked up a piece of printing paper on the table, "Are you recruiting those children just to make them part of the Immortal City?"

The paper that was put on the table a few minutes ago was densely packed with the results of comparing individual numbers and genes.

"It's just a routine medical examination." Salomon avoided talking about it, but grabbed the piece of paper.

This is the result of the genetic testing of those children by Maya Hand and her genetic laboratory. By comparing with the remains that Salomon dug graves everywhere, the ancestors of those children were traced. In fact, this is the pre-work for creating the Imperial Guard. The first Imperial Guard, Constantine, has the blood of the Macedonian Dynasty. While Salomon bestowed his own power on him, he also incorporated the excellent characteristics of certain kings Into his character, after all, the Praetorian Guard was created not only as a weapon, but also as an assistant to convey his will and a consultant to provide advice.

He also needs more guards to carry out the task, so whenever the Immortal City finds a child of the right age, it will conduct gene sequencing on it, looking for a child suitable for genetic alchemy. The reason why Natasha was able to see the juvenile body of the first Custodian was only because the manufacturing process was still in the experimental stage at that time, and she did not know that the golden armored giant who had been following Salomon was actually that boy——through time In the killing training of gems and alien planets, Constantine was actually over 200 years old, and Salomon, who accompanied him in the training, was unable to count his age in detail because of the acceleration of time and time travel.

He has given up on a specific age and considers himself still twenty-one, although the real number is far more.
