Chapter 48: The Captain is On His Way
Chapter 48: The Captain is On His Way
It was already night by the time they left the building.
"Brother ---How was my performance just now?"
Nemu intimately hugged Lod and asked in a spoiled tone.
"Well done."
Lod smiled and rubbed Nemu's hair. He praised, "My Nemu is the best. He can already help big brother!"
"Hehe---"
Hearing Lod's praise, Nemu felt very happy. It was even sweeter than eating honey. Two shallow blush appeared on his face as he smiled happily.
Although he was still with S. H. I. E. L. D., Lod had no scruples at all. He talked with Nemu about Monitoring Microbe on Fury.
What was strange was that although an agent clearly walked past him, his expression did not change at all, as if he did not notice them at all.
This was actually one of the new abilities that Lod had developed after he had the lineage of the Quincy!
By controlling the spiritual droplets in the air, he built an absolute spiritual space within a few feet of his body as the center!
There are two benefits to the absolute spiritual space.
First, the concentration of spiritual droplets inside the absolute spiritual energy is far beyond the outside. It can accelerate the absorption speed of death god or the Quincy, and it can also slowly recover the injuries on the body.
Second, the absolute spiritual energy can isolate most of the detection equipment, telepathy, and eliminate the existence of the body.
The reason why Lod developed this move was actually to prevent him from being spied on!
Who asked Marvel World to have so many dangerous people? He did not want to be spied on by a telepathic ability user.
Lod and Nemu chatted as they walked out of the building.
"Wait... Mr. Lod!"
Suddenly, Coulson's voice came from behind.
Lod and Nemu stopped and turned around, only to see Coulson running over.
"What's the matter?" Lod's eyes turned cold, showing an impatient look.
"I apologize for what happened just now."
Coulson wiped the sweat off his face and revealed an apologetic expression. He said, "We were too anxious and worried that we would cause an accident like last night, so we said that."
Lod said lightly, "It doesn't matter. Regardless of whether you agree or not, it will not affect Soul Society's decision."
"Errr..."
Coulson was a little embarrassed. Then, he quickly put on a professional smile and changed the topic. "Mr. Lod, why don't you let me escort you back?"
This place was far from Manhattan, and there was a large area in the middle.
Unless he wanted to use Hirenkyaku to bring Nemu all the way back, it would be the best choice to sit in the car obediently!
At the thought of this, Lod could not help but feel a little envious of Yoruichi's flash step.
If he could have a Hoho like Yoruichi, it was estimated that returning to Manhattan from here would only be a matter of a few Hoho, so why would he need to take a car?
After Lod carried Nemu to the front passenger seat, this was a cherry-red 1962 Chevrolet Corvette, an antique car that had been around for a very long time.
Nemu looked at the car curiously. He touched it and poked it. It looked like he liked it very much.
"It seems that the little Princess likes Lola very much." Coulson sat in the driver's seat and smiled.
"Laura?" Nemu opened her big black eyes and looked at Coulson cutely. She tilted her head and said, "Is this its name?"
"That's right, her name is Laura."
Coulson gently stroked the steering wheel as if he was caressing an old lover. He revealed a smile and said, "This is my favorite car. It took me a lot of effort to get it!"
Nemu made a face, curled his lips and said, "Uncle Baldy, you are so weird. You actually have a relationship with a car."
Ping!
Lod vaguely heard the sound of glass shattering again.
He turned to look at Coulson with an awkward expression.
"Ahem..."
Coulson coughed to ease the awkwardness. "You are still young and don't understand. To men, cars are like the most loyal lovers. They will never betray you. You just need to add some oil occasionally."
Good reply!
He didn't expect that Coulson was also proficient in dodging bullet at a conversation and going directly to the right line.
Weng!
Although it was an old, after being modified by S. H. I. E. L. D.'s black technology, the horsepower of it was definitely greater than most sports cars!
"Sit tight!"
Coulson kindly reminded, "Lola is very 'brutal'."
Boom!
The accelerator let out a beast-like roar, and 'Lola' turned into a red bolt of lightning and sped away!
"Wow!"
Nemu cheered happily and opened his hands to enjoy the feeling of the wind blowing past his ears!
"Mr. Lod."
Coulson held the steering wheel with one hand and asked, "Can I ask you a question?"
"Yes."
With one hand on his cheek, Lod looked out the window at the scenery that was quickly retreating and said lightly, "If you want me to not report to Soul Society, then you should give up."
"Of course it is not this problem."
Coulson shook his head and said, "I just want to ask, if Soul Society knows about this news, what will they usually do?"
This was what he really wanted to ask. It was also what Nick Fury was currently concerned about. When Soul Society knew that the Quincy was not completely wiped out, what kind of action would he take?
Lod sneered, "Who do you think I am? I am just an ordinary death god. How can I know Soul Society's decision?"
Although this answer was expected by Coulson, he was still unwilling to ask, "Please, Mr. Lod, even if it is a blind guess. If Soul Society knows the existence of the Quincy, will they invade New York and restart the original war?"
Large-scale invasion?
Lod lamented in his heart. He didn't even have a hair of Soul Society now, how could they invade?
It seemed that the story of the day had scared S. H. I. E. L. D., which was why Coulson had tried every possible means to ask him about Soul Society's next move.
But this was also good. They could continue according to his plan.
He wanted Soul Society to slowly surface and constantly strengthen the credibility of S. H. I. E. L. D.!
The key point of lies could deceive people was that the information conditions of both sides were not equal!
All the information that S. H. I. E. L. D. knew was deliberately revealed by Lod through various channels.
With such unfair information conditions, no matter how cunning Nick Fury was, it was impossible to break through the layers of fog and find out the truth hidden behind it!
Lod supported his cheek with one hand and comforted, "Don't worry, Soul Society is not a brutal organization. How can they disregard the safety of humanity and start a war again?"
Hearing this, Coulson's heart, which was in his throat, relaxed a little.
But before Coulson could completely relax, Lod's next words made his heart jump to his throat!
"However... according to my experience, Soul Society should send one of its 'captain' to the modern world."
Lod said lightly.
Creak -
Laura suddenly braked, and the friction of the tires made a harsh sound, leaving two charred marks on the asphalt road!
Coulson almost hit the steering wheel, while Lod and Nemu sat steadily on the fishing platform, not even shaking.
Lod asked lightly, "What's wrong?"
Coulson's face changed dramatically, and his voice became stuttering. "Captain?"
