The Roots of Manga

Chapter Thirty

"Don't you think I'm going to put down my position as director of S.H.I.E.L.D. to join an underground organization whose nature is still unknown and seems to have a long history? It's not funny." Nick Fury's face has remained in a bad state, or It is also possible that his face was born like this, and he is destined to scare even his own children to cry in the future.

"Assassin is fighting for the freedom of mankind. Joining us is equivalent to protecting peace. What's more, brothers in Assassin can be of any identity."

Leviathan's appearance was always calm, his tone was neither anxious nor irritable, and he was playing with the wine glass in his hand. It was difficult to tell whether his attitude was serious or not.

"The leader of Assassin, Leviathan, I think it's time for us to confess, after all, we will cooperate in the future, won't we?"

Nick Fury's tone seems to be milder. He maintains this tough tone in order to maintain the initiative of S.H.I.E.L.D. and its status in cooperation. As for the goodwill, Coulson has already done it.

"Leviathan, I'm also quite curious about this. Are you from a family of assassins?" Tony was a little interested, and he said, "It makes me feel like I'm living in a fantasy novel. There will be dragons? Oh, don't tell me God really exists."

"Gods exist. Dragons also exist."

Leviathan's faint opening made Tony's smile froze.

"Are you joking?"

In the silence, Nick Fury spoke.

"I never take a joke, and I'm not interested in telling stories to three grown men."

"Really? But I feel like you are telling a story, but thinking about everything that happened during this period, I really believe it."

Tony wanted to deny it, but the words came out of his mouth.

"Actually, this is very common. There is nothing unreasonable in the existence of magic, and the existence of giant dragons and gods. The so-called fairy tales can be passed down, and there is a reason for it."

At this time, Coulson asked, "If possible, can you let us know what you know, Mr. Leviathan?"

Glancing at the faces of the three who had changed somewhat and more or less, but all existed, Leviathan pondered for a moment before opening his mouth.

"Magic, magic, blood... everything comes from the root. The root creates everything, and the root manifests its power. Understanding the things manifested by the root in different ways, we call it mastering the mystery. Mastering the mystery is also Possess a part of extraordinary power. Our ancestors traced the origin of things, that is, mystery, hoping to understand the root. This is our beginning, a group of seekers."

"Science explores the world from matter, and we explore the world itself through the spirit of the world."

Tony heard this and opened his mouth: "Root source, what is that?"

"I can't explain it, he can't speak, if according to my understanding, then he is everything, he is the source." Leviathan gave his own explanation, and then said: "I don't know if there are people who really understand the source But, as far as I know, even the gods have only touched the edge of the source."

"Since you have always existed, why do we know nothing about it?"

There is one more thing Nick Fury didn't say, that is, in the handbook they got, the things recorded are only a few hundred years old, and the lives of the first generation to the seventh generation are extremely brief, and only five hundred years are recorded, that is to say The history of the earliest period and modern times is blank.

"We have been hiding all the time, because the first person who understood the mystery set a commandment, because it has a very high mystery, so it has formed a kind of root magic. We can't let ordinary people know the mystery, so we only see Everything is very hidden. The enemy of the mystic can only be the mystic. And because the guardian, after sealing the mystery, used his own power to bury the history of the mystic, so you can’t find out our traces.

"

"But you are not hiding at all now, and there is the guardian. We know that there was a person who was called the guardian who also claimed to be the guardian in the Heroic Spirit incident. By the way, he said he was the new one. Mr. Stark and I were All present."

Tony nodded and said, "That's true. You so-called mystics are really mysterious. That guy said he was called Ye Xin. You mean his ancestors blocked the mystery? What do you mean?"

"So people have lost the power to perceive mystery. If you understand it, it is the world and it is locked. You can no longer observe the essence of the world. And we are no longer hiding because the precepts have disappeared, protecting people and heroes The promise of the temple has also disappeared.”

"There's no way anyone could have done that."

Tony frowned.

"But he did it... Another point is that the one who blocked the mystery is Ye Xin's predecessor, not an ancestor. Strictly speaking, he and his predecessor should be of the same generation. Even if they are not, they are all against us. As far as the ancients are concerned. As for Yassin, the records known to the mystical world, the earliest known records have reached three thousand years."

"Immortal? This is really unexpected."

Nick Fury's heart was a little restless, and he raised the danger level of Ye Xin to a very high position in his heart.

"So, this Jessin is your enemy? But where did his predecessor go, do you know?"

Hearing Nick Fury's question, Leviathan shook his head, and then said something unexpected to the three of them.

"No, he is not our enemy. This decision was made by the leaders of various forces in the mysterious world at that time."

Tony remembered something, and said, "Is it because of that war? The one you talked about when you talked with Hiss?"

Leviathan sighed without denying it.

Tony couldn't help wondering: "What kind of war made you choose to do this at that time? Although you don't want to admit it, at that time, it was enough to say that you were above ordinary people, like gods, even if you can't be known by ordinary people. , but with your strength, even if you are not known, there are many ways to get everything you want.

"...God, our opponent is a god system. From the very beginning, we lost the leader of the magic system, the clock tower. The so-called magic is a different kind of magic. Their power is very secret, and the people who master it It seems that the more secret their power is, the more powerful they are. There are many powerful ones among them, but even so, they were destroyed in the first place."

"Their destruction made the remaining forces unite one after another, and it took a lot of money to eliminate them. In order to recuperate, and to prevent these gods from being resurrected with the help of mystery, we decided to let the guardians block the mystery."

Leviathan's plain words made it impossible to feel his true emotions.
