In the evening, the plane hoisted a glass cabinet containing a boulder and slowly dropped it into the circular pit in the center of the room from above.
Everyone carefully inspected the machines to ensure they were functioning properly.
Mike and Mei walked in and looked at the various machines in the room. “A room full of antique equipment looks a bit like your office, Captain.”
“What are the chances of success?” May asked.
“I don’t know, but there is a possibility of success.”
“Mike, push that lever for me.
No, the one that’s pulled down, the one next to it, push it up. “
Fitz directed Mike to push the control lever, and then eagerly pulled the main switch.
In an instant, various gears of different sizes began to rotate, and the pointer on the instrument panel began to swing rapidly.
The whole room seemed to be activated, making a tractor-like sound.
The ground shook slowly, and the boulders in the pit finally changed, turning into liquid like boiling water.
Fitz approached carefully with a flashlight and shined the light on the surface of the dark liquid. “It can stay on.”
“Light, I need more light.”
“What do you want light for?” Aaron bumped Randolph’s arm, “It’s pitch black no matter how you look at it!”
“It should be a signal. If the light can be transmitted to that world through the portal, and his girlfriend happens to see it again, she might be able to come out on her own.”
“Oh!” Aaron nodded suddenly, but then he thought of something and his eyes suddenly widened, “Fitz, turn off your flashlight.”
Fitz didn’t seem to hear it at all, and just stared blankly at the dark portal, as if Simmons would jump out of it the next moment.
“Shit!” Aaron cursed secretly, immediately stepped forward to grab the flashlight, and threw it out of the room.
“What are you doing?” Fitz yelled angrily.
Bang!
The machines in the room made abnormal noises, and the lights flickered on and off.
After all, these machines have a history of hundreds of years. Although they can start normally, the quality and efficiency cannot be guaranteed.
“There’s trouble,” Mike said immediately. “The gears seem to be stuck.”
“Close it now, Randolph.”
“OK!” Randolph immediately walked to the controller and pulled the switch.
Click!
I don’t know if the Asgardian was too strong, or if the machine had passed its shelf life, and the control lever was pulled off by him.
Fortunately, the machine also stopped working, and the liquid portal turned into a boulder again.
“I think we can fix it.” Randolph smiled guiltily.
“It’ll be nice if it can be closed.” Aaron breathed a sigh of relief, and then saw Fitz swinging his fist and hitting him in the face.
Aaron tilted his head back and kicked out while avoiding the fist.
With a muffled sound, Fitz flew backwards several meters.
“My mother has never slapped me in the face when I grow up.” Aaron snorted coldly.
“Why did you stop me?” Fitz’s voice was hoarse, with tears in his eyes. “Simmons may have seen the light signal. If she rushes over and the portal closes again… it will be a big blow.”
“Idiot, idiot, stupid.” Aaron sneered and spat out cold words, “You think she didn’t die fast enough!”
“It’s understandable.” Randolph shrugged. “Love is the most terrifying and unexplainable drug. It can make people lose their minds.”
“Fortunately I’m here, and fortunately you turned off the machine in time, otherwise the consequences would be really unpredictable.”
“What do you mean?” Coulson asked confused.
“It’s you who healed the scar and forgot the pain, Coulson.
It’s a strange world! Aaron said meaningfully, “In other words, it may not just be Simmons who is trapped inside.”
Desolation, dilapidation, loneliness, despair, what kind of creatures can be cultivated in such an environment?
Cruel, vicious, and will do whatever it takes to survive.
Of course, this is just my guess and the worst outcome, but you can’t deny that such an outcome is possible.
Fitz’s light was announcing a message to the world: the door to escape is right here. If you want to escape, come here quickly! “
Upon hearing this, Fitz suddenly realized something, his breathing suddenly became rapid, and his body began to tremble involuntarily.
“What happens when a wolf and a sheep set out towards the same goal at the same time?
Professor Randolph, you are the wisest among us, can you answer this question? “
“Ah…” Randolph smiled awkwardly but politely, and asked in a low voice, “Do you want to be so cruel?”
“Who made him want to hit me just now?” Aaron curled his lips, “Forget it, let me answer it! The answer is that the sheep will be eaten without leaving any scraps.
And Simmons is still a woman. Although she is not very beautiful, she is still a woman, and the fate of women may be even worse…”
“Stop talking.” Fitz roared angrily, bloodshot eyes appearing in his pupils.
“I don’t know if I stopped you in time, but I’m sure I stopped him in time.” Aaron looked at Colson with bright eyes, “What is that in your hand?”
“Uh…flare gun.”
“Beautiful!” Aaron clapped his hands, “Fortunately your shot didn’t go in.”
“Guys,” May suddenly interjected, “I think we need a doctor.”
Everyone turned to look and saw Skye collapsed in Mei’s arms, with two lines of blood under his nostrils.
Skye forced a smile and waved weakly, “Don’t worry, I’m fine, just take a moment and I’ll be fine.”
“What’s wrong with you? You were fine just now!” Colson asked.
“That pulsing sound was killing me,” Skye said.
“What pulsing sound?”
“Are you kidding me? It’s so noisy.”
“I think you are the only one who heard it.” Aaron spread his hands and said, “This stone is a secret weapon left by the Kree to destroy the Inhumans. It is natural that the Inhumans will be affected when it is activated!”
“Fix the machine first!” Randolph said.
“Yes, fix the machine first.” Fitz cheered up, “I should send a detector over first, so that I can see the situation on the other side and find Simmons.”
“How to fix it? We don’t understand the principles of the machine.” Mike said.
But Fitz obviously couldn’t listen and kept sorting out the broken parts of the machine, “It must be fixed.”
It’s a pity that magic can’t be used, otherwise if a repair spell is thrown over, all problems will not be a problem.
Aaron complained in his mind and silently took out the Book of Devils from the space ring, “Repairing machines is not my area of expertise, so I can’t be of much help.
Professor Randolph, it is rare for us to meet each other. I happen to have some academic issues that I would like to discuss with you. “
“Oh!” Randolph also became interested, “What’s the problem?”
“I wonder if you have any research on demons?”
Randolph’s face changed slightly, and after pondering for a moment, he said, “I advise you to change the question. The water here is very deep, and I don’t dare to wade in it.”
“I misunderstood,” Aaron said with a fake smile, “I just want to know some stories about demons. It’s too troublesome to read books, so I just asked you, this living fossil.”
Randolph opened his mouth hesitantly, as if he was very afraid of the topic of demons, “Everything in the book may not be false.
Just like the myth of Asgard, although it is very different from reality, Asgard does exist. “
“Professor, you really think too much.
Again, I just want to know some demon stories.
To be honest, I am writing a book recently and need some materials related to demons, so I want to find some inspiration from you. “
“That’s it?” Randolph asked suspiciously.
“Otherwise? I’m just a mortal, and I have nothing to do to ask what the devil is doing?”
“That’s true!” Randolph nodded slightly, “Okay! Who made me a professor? No one knows the stories spread on the earth better than me.”
“Wait a minute.” Aaron took out the magic carpet from the space ring and laid it in the corner, and then took out a bottle of high-quality brandy, ginger fruit, cake snacks, “Okay, it’s almost done, there must be some sense of ceremony.”
“Huh? Huh!” Randolph was surprised for a moment and then showed a satisfied smile, “I have to say, Mr. Gaius, you are a better person than Colson.”
“I’m not an agent after all.” Aaron sat down with Abe and then made a gesture of invitation, “Please start your story.”
Randolph poured himself a glass of wine and savored it carefully, “Not bad, it ranks among the top ten wines I have ever drank.”
“Only good wine can match a good story.” Aaron said seriously.
“Ahem!” Randolph took another sip with some embarrassment, and then said slowly: “The devil is a symbol of evil and the enemy of gods and humans. He often uses his power to deceive, manipulate, play with or ravage humans.
The most famous among the demons is Lucifer. He was once an archangel in front of God. Later, he rebelled from heaven and fell into hell. But even in hell, he was one of the most powerful demon kings…
In addition to Lucifer, there are also Mammon, Asmodeus, Baal, Levianson, Beelzebub, and Belial…”
While Aaron was giving Randolph wine, he took out a small notebook and took notes.
What he was telling must be a mythical story spread natively on Earth, but at least he has lived on Earth for so many years and has some understanding of the real situation.
Under the stimulation of alcohol, some valuable information may be revealed.
Colson’s mouth twitched as he looked at this disgraceful scene, not knowing what to say.
“They…” Mike covered his face and couldn’t bear to look at her. “Why do I think they are here for sightseeing?”
“Forget it! Just pretend you didn’t see it.” Coulson didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. What could he do? He was also helpless.
Neither Randolph nor Aaron is a fuel-efficient lamp. He has no right to order them to do things, not to mention that they still have people to ask for.
As time passed, Coulson and others worked hard to put back the broken machines in the room, but the results were somewhat unsatisfactory.
“It will still crash again. We have to strengthen the link.” Fitz said.
“Reinforcement? How to reinforce it?” Mike frowned and said, “I’m not throwing cold water on you, but most of the devices are underground, and we can’t demolish the castle.”
“Why can’t it be dismantled?” As soon as Fitz finished speaking, he realized that his emotions were a bit excessive, and immediately added: “That is the last resort.”
“Oh!” Mike sighed and continued: “We are lucky that this room is in this shape, otherwise the machine might shatter it and bury us.”
“Wait.” Fitz grasped the key point sharply, “Yes, that’s it.
Just like the professor said, quantum harmonic oscillation theory.”
“Who called me?” Randolph stood up in a daze, “Have you all fixed it?”
“It can be considered as fixed!” May said with some embarrassment, “But it’s just a repeat of the situation just now, and it may be even worse.”
“Fitz, continue!” Coulson said.
“For that era, the shape of this room is very strange, because it is designed to resonate and generate a quantized field in the stone.”
“This is called professionalism.” Randolph said half-jokingly, “I used to be more professional than you, but then I found that speaking human language is easier for others to accept.”
Fitz was stunned for a moment, and he also reacted when he saw the puzzled expressions of others, “This room is a speaker, and the machine is a loudspeaker, which is a sub-frequency that resonates with the boulder.”
“Are you saying that you have a way to really fix the machine?” Mike asked.
“No, I mean I found…”
“We don’t have to fix the machine.” Skye seemed to understand what Fitz said, “I can do it, I can open the portal.”
“Yes, that’s what I mean, Skye can resonate with the frequency of the machine.”
“Skye, can you copy it?” Coulson asked.
“It’s already imprinted in my mind.”
“But your body…” May was a little worried, “You almost fainted just now.”
“It can still be done in a short time, at least I am definitely more reliable than these machines.”
“How long can you hold on?”
“About a minute!” Skye said uncertainly.
“If you can’t stand it, stop. We can’t lose you.”
“I can do it.”
“That… I’m not trying to spoil the fun!” Aaron raised his hand and said, “It’s really a sad reality in front of you. You can’t pretend not to see it.
Even if Skye can open the portal briefly, how can you bring Simmons back within this minute?
Do you have to send a signal for her to find? Isn’t this risky! What if a monster who kills without blinking comes out of the portal?
Stepping back, even if there are no other creatures on that planet and she sees the signal, can she get there within a minute?
There is another question, is the location of the portal fixed or random?
If it is fixed, it’s fine, but if it is random, then trying to find Simmons is no different from looking for a needle in a haystack.”
After the voice fell, Coulson and others looked at each other.
This series of question marks made them silent, their heads were confused, and their hearts were even more thunderous.
Skye risked being injured to open the portal for one minute, but it seemed meaningless!
