A Magical Journey Starting at Hogwarts - Chapter 918
c918 The changes of the Tree of All-Knowing, the enlightened Professor Charles
Tri-Wing Building, S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters.
Nick Fury stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, calmly watching the agents below working hard.
As one of the few people who knows how turbulent the world is, only this kind of control can bring him a sense of security.
Boom, boom, boom!
Hill knocked on the door and walked straight in, “Sir.”
Nick Fury quickly adjusted his mood and turned to look at her, “What’s the matter, Agent Hill?”
“There are some changes in the Tree of Omniscientity.”
“What?”
“I don’t know how to describe it, you better see it yourself!”
Hill projected the picture on the tablet in mid-air. Nick Fury looked at the two projected pictures and frowned unconsciously.
Both pictures are dazzling trees with lush branches. The size and shape seem to be the same, but there are some differences in comparison.
“You saw it, Fury.
The second tree has more leaves than the first tree…yellow leaves, as if it’s gone from spring to autumn. Hill pursed his lips and considered his words, “This has never happened before. The professors who studied the Omniscient Tree agreed that this might be a sign of some kind, such as… disaster.” ”
“Except for disaster?”
“Death and decay.”
“Damn it!” Nick Fury complained speechlessly, “I knew those experts and professors were unreliable, but I didn’t expect them to be so perfunctory.”
“Fury, you asked a group of people who believe in science to study metaphysics. This is their blind spot in knowledge.”
“This is also a helpless move.” Nick Fury sat down, “When did this happen?”
“Last night.”
Tarui stared closely at the yellow leaves on the second tree, thinking about the revelation given by this tree, and one guess after another quickly emerged in his mind.
At this moment, the cell phone on the table suddenly rang, interrupting his thoughts.
“Gaius?” Nick Fury glanced at the caller ID on his phone, and suddenly his eyes lit up. Maybe a fortune teller could divine the answer.
“Hello! I’m Nick Fury.”
“Director Fury, something big happened, something big, big.” Aaron’s voice was anxious, which made Nick Fury feel nervous. It must not be a small trouble to make him so serious.
“I had a sudden whim when I was having breakfast, and I did a divination and came up with a terrible prophecy.”
Nick Fury subconsciously looked at the screen projection of the Tree of Omniscient, and suddenly thought of something.
Perhaps this prophecy can explain the changes in the Tree of Omniscientity.
However, after he waited for several seconds, Aaron said nothing, “You tell me! What kind of prophecy is it?”
“Well…my divination is all paid.”
“Damn it, Falk! You love to talk but don’t talk.” Nick Fury hung up the phone angrily.
“Fury.” Hill hesitated.
“Five seconds and he’ll call.”
Aaron was stunned for a moment and put his phone on the table. The old god was counting down: “Six, five, four, three, two…”
On the count of two, Nick Fury came over.
“I knew it would be like this.” Aaron spread his hands and answered the phone.
“Mom Fuck! How much do you want?”
“One hundred million.”
“Impossible.” Nick Fury said without hesitation. A prediction of 100 million, even if it is to open the blind box, is ridiculously expensive.
“The value of this prophecy is definitely far more than 100 million. I’m charging you a broken bone because of my acquaintance.
In addition, I can tell you in advance that this prophecy will affect the entire world. ”
Hearing this, Nick Fury took a deep breath and said, “You tell me first, and I will judge the value of the prophecy.”
“No problem.” Aaron showed a victorious smile, “The content of the prophecy is that the ancestor of mutants, Apocalypse, is about to break free from the seal, and his appearance will announce the existence of mutants to the entire world.
Oh, and a friendly reminder, Apocalypse is very powerful. ”
After finishing his words, Nick Fury paused for a few seconds and said, “One hundred million U.S. dollars will be put on your card this afternoon.”
“A pleasure to work with.”
“Master.” Jane asked with some confusion, “Aren’t you worried that he… defaults on his debt?”
“Don’t worry, Nick Fury, the secret agent chief, can still tell the difference between a full meal and a full meal.
Just wait! He will call again. ”
“Fuck Fuck!” Nick Fury couldn’t help but cursed and kept pacing back and forth, “Now I know why the Tree of Omniscient has undergone such a big change.
Once everyone around the world knows about the existence of mutants, and the tree of omniscience cannot affect humans’ memory of mutants, then they will be busy. ”
“Fury, we have to prepare early.” Hill said solemnly.
“Preparations have been made for a long time. Some lunatics in the military are eager to start a war with mutants as soon as possible. They have developed a lot of things for this purpose and have also set up special departments.
But these bastards only thought about how to win and did not consider the consequences of the war at all. ”
“The prophecy is that we are about to get out of trouble, which means Apocalypse is not out of trouble yet, and we still have time.”
“But we don’t know anything about Apocalypse, we don’t even know where he is.” Nick Fury said helplessly, but as soon as he finished speaking, his expression became strange, “He actually made a prediction Also sold in pieces.”
Nick Fury picked up the phone speechlessly and dialed Aaron’s number again.
“Anything else, Director Fury?”
“You’re asking even though you know the answer. I need all the information about Apocalypse.”
“I’m sorry, I don’t know that either.”
“Then you should know his location, right?”
“Ah…” Aaron was embarrassed. “In ancient legends, Apocalypse, the ancestor of mutants, was once the ruler of Egypt. S.H.I.E.L.D. might be able to go to Egypt to check.”
“The range is too large. We need a more accurate location.” Nick Fury said seriously. “Your compass is urgently needed by S.H.I.E.L.D. right now. I know you don’t want to borrow it, but this is for…”
“I can borrow it.” Aaron interrupted.
“What did you say?” Nick Fury asked in surprise, “Did I hear you wrong?”
“I can lend you the compass, and it’s free. I have a girlfriend who is a mutant. If Apocalypse escapes, it will definitely have some impact on her.
But let me make it clear. It’s a loan, not a gift. You have to return it to me after use.”
“No problem at all.
Without further delay, I’ll send someone to get the compass.
Do you want to go with me? You can also visit the scenery of Egypt by the way.”
“I won’t go. I have other things to do.
By the way, a friendly reminder, don’t act rashly after finding the seal of Apocalypse, because a random move may make the seal looser.”
“Don’t worry about it, we are professionals.”
After hanging up the phone, Nick Fury looked at Hill, “Agent Hill, please go there.”
“Got it.”
“Wait, that compass …If you can delay it, delay it. ”
Hill’s face twitched, and he said in surprise: “This is not appropriate! Didn’t you just promise him that you would pay it back?”
“I will definitely pay it back, but it will be a little later.”
“A little bit? Are you sure it’s not a little bit?”
“Agent Hill.” Nick Fury immediately frowned and said righteously: “You know the function of that compass, it guides the user to find anything in their mind.
It’s not very useful for him as a fortune teller to have that thing, but it’s different if it’s in the hands of SHIELD. How much manpower, material resources, and time resources can we save.
In the past, he was watching closely and we had no chance, but now he has given us the opportunity.
Tell me, you won’t miss this opportunity. ”
Hill didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. To be honest, she was mentally prepared, but Nick Fury’s shameless and self-righteous attitude also made her a little defenseless.
“Fury, this may affect Gaius’s impression of SHIELD.”
“Forget it! SHIELD has never been good in his heart.”
……
On the other side, Aaron handed Captain Jack’s compass to Jane.
“If SHIELD people come, give it to them.”
“Okay, master.
It’s just…” Jane said hesitantly, “Master, are you going to give it to them like this? What if they don’t return it?”
“Be more confident, remove the ‘what if’, that old bastard Nick Fury will definitely not return it.
He has a bottom line, but he has no moral integrity.” Aaron said very confidently, “But it’s not up to him whether to return it or not. As long as I want my things, they will return to my hands even at the end of the universe.”
“I see.”
“Okay, the warning has been made, I have to go and get the piano.”
Aaron was about to walk out of the door when a ball of fire suddenly appeared in the air.
Fox made a high-pitched cry, flew out of the flames, and landed on the perch that belonged to it alone.
“Why is it at this time?” Aaron frowned slightly, not thinking that Fox’s coming here would be a coincidence.
“What happened?”
“Master, Jean had a nightmare last night.” Fox said immediately, “She dreamed of the end of the world. This dream was very real, and the energy in her body was a little out of control.”
“Dream? The end of the world?” Aaron touched his chin, “Can you be more specific?”
“Master, in her dream, I saw a strange human with dark blue skin wearing ancient armor. He stood on the top of a pyramid and watched the flames burn everything.”
“Pyramid?” Aaron’s voice unconsciously rose a few points. The iconic building of the pyramid can remind him of many things, but combined with other scenes in the dream, the most relevant to the current reality is only Egypt and the mutant ancestor Apocalypse.
“Interesting.” Hela smiled faintly, “I really want to meet this person.”
“Please let me worry less! Your Highness Hela.”
“I just said that casually. I won’t cause you any trouble before my power is fully restored.
After all, I don’t want to be found by Odin.”
“What a troubled time!” Aaron sighed dully and continued to ask: “Jin didn’t cause any impact?”
“It just caused a slight shock to the school, but Professor X controlled the situation.”
“You go back first, I’ll be there soon.”
Fox blinked and turned into flames and dissipated.
Aaron went outside to take out the motorcycle, turned on the flight mode, and flew into the sky.
……
Westchester.
Once again at Xavier Academy for Gifted Youngsters, Aaron no longer had the restraint of a new arrival, and drove the motorcycle into the campus very familiarly.
At this time, Fox also flew over, flapping his wings to lead Aaron.
A few minutes later, he came to Jean, who was sitting alone under a tree reading a book by the lake.
Aaron walked forward, and the shadow covered the book. When Qin looked up, she saw a familiar smiling face. “Did you miss me?”
Qin’s face flushed. “Why are you here?”
“Who asked you to be here!” Aaron spread his hands helplessly. If his girlfriend wasn’t here, he wouldn’t have come to the mutant school.
“So, you came to see me?”
“Not exactly. I won’t disturb your campus life, but life is not just about campus.” Aaron pulled Qin up from under the tree. “You can’t always stay on campus.”
Qin looked at him thoughtfully. “You want to take me out?”
“No? It shouldn’t be difficult to ask Professor Charles to approve a month-long vacation for you!
Although he is an old man, he was young and would understand my idea.”
“But…”
“Don’t say but. I finally made up my mind to come to you. Wouldn’t it be too cruel to reject me?”
Qin felt sweet in her heart and nodded embarrassedly. “Okay!”
The goal was achieved, and a stone in Aaron’s heart finally fell to the ground.
Qin agreed, as long as she agreed, the matter would be half successful.
Aaron immediately dragged Qin to the teaching building and came to the principal’s office.
Charles was drinking tea. When he saw the two people who suddenly came in, he was stunned for a moment and smiled, “Knock on the door before coming in next time.”
“Sorry, professor.” Qin apologized awkwardly.
Aaron was more casual and went straight to the point, “Professor Charles, I hope you can give Qin a month’s vacation.”
Charles looked at the hands of the two people holding together and immediately understood, “No problem.”
“Thank you, professor.”
“But I also have a small request.” Charles looked at Qin seriously, “Be careful and don’t kill anyone.”
“Hmm?” Aaron’s pupils dilated slightly, and he silently gave Charles a thumbs up.
She has such an open-minded principal like you, it’s my blessing!
Qin blushed, “Professor, you… must have misunderstood something.”
“Yes, that’s right, I misunderstood.
We’ve only lived together for a while, and we don’t plan to have children yet.” Aaron said seriously, and then he felt a pain in his foot, and then he noticed Qin’s warning eyes.
“I can understand the feelings of young people, but you shouldn’t take the advice of experienced people lightly.”
Professor Charles approved Qin’s one-month vacation. Qin didn’t know how to explain, and was dragged out of the office by Aaron in a daze.
“It’s all your fault.” Qin covered her face in embarrassment, “The professor misunderstood me.”
“You obviously think too much.” Aaron didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, “Go pack your things first! I’ll wait for you outside.”
