Chapter 873
At first, Ling Xiao thought that there must be Knights of the Round Table in the Knights of the Round Table who are stronger than S-rank. After all, as the No.12 knight, Brian Braddock is all A-rank, so the strength of the head of the Knights of the Round Table must be far away surpass him.
After such a long time of contact, Ling Xiao discovered that this is not the case in fact. Whether it is the first knight of the round table, Lancelot, or the second knight of the round table, Gawain, their strength is only A+ level, and no one has the strength Break through the S rank.
It is precisely because of this that when the dark elves invaded England, Lancelot, the first knight of the round table, chose to escort the queen away immediately, while Gawain, the second knight of the round table, was responsible for establishing isolation on the periphery of the battle. Take, intercept and kill any dark elves who try to break into human society. In the final analysis, their strength is limited, and they cannot intervene in the war between Ling Xiao, Thor and the dark elves.
However, the Knights of the Round Table does not have a strongman whose strength exceeds S-level, but this does not mean that there are no strongmen in the whole of Britain, and the relationship between this S-level strongman and the British royal family is extremely close. The name of this person is Merlin. .
Merlin is a legendary magician in English and Welsh mythology. He is powerful and full of wisdom and can predict the future. He is King Arthur's best friend and mentor. He helped King Arthur ascend the throne and left behind various legends. Even today, BBC still has many A film and TV series based on the story of Merlin.
In fact, Merlin, like the Knights of the Round Table, left nothing but an inherited title.
However, unlike the Knights of the Round Table, every person who takes over the title of Merlin is actually a descendant of the legendary great magician, and his surname is indeed Merlin.
However, Merlin does not live in London, nor does he even live in England. According to the information obtained by Ling Xiao, he lives in seclusion in Wales all year round and rarely comes to London. Even the time of the dark elves' invasion did not allow him to leave the hermitage. , while inside the Knights of the Round Table, there are rumors that Merlin has actually predicted that Ling Xiao and Thor will definitely solve the invasion of the dark elves, so he is not worried at all.
Ling Xiao doesn't care about predicting the future. There are countless possibilities in the future. In his view, time is like a big tree. The longer it grows, the more it will branch out into countless branches, just like who Just as I don't know where the future will go, I don't know which branch is the real future.
Ling Xiao has never met that Master Merlin, nor has anyone from the Knights of the Round Table contacted him, but despite this, the strength of the Knights of the Round Table is still not to be underestimated, even without that Master Merlin, any one It is very difficult for an S-level powerhouse to do anything to the British royal family, because in the hands of the first knight of the round table, Lancelot, holds the artifact Sword in the Stone.
It is rumored that the sword in the stone is a sword inserted into a square stone, with gold letters written around it: "Whoever can pull this sword from the stone platform and is born in England, it will be the king of all England."
When a group of frogs who are greedy for status and wealth dream of becoming the king of all England, the sword in the stone rejects them; and when a boy rushes to protect the life and honor of his brother, the sword in the stone blesses the boy, The young Arthur also easily pulled out the sword.
Because Arthur was too young, the nobles were unwilling to bow their heads and bow their heads. They asked Arthur to pull out the sword in the stone many times in public, but they still didn't believe that this was their true son.Over time, the people began to agree that Arthur was king, and they opposed the nobles' delay of time.Shortly thereafter Arthur became king of all England.
Although the British royal family has experienced many dynasties, in fact there are close or distant blood ties between the previous and subsequent dynasties, and the blood relationship between members of the royal family has never been interrupted.Thousands of years later, King Arthur's blood is still ruling the whole of England.
And only the royal children of King Arthur's blood have the ability to use the sword in the stone, as is the case with Lancelot, the first knight of the Knights of the Round Table today.
As long as he is holding the sword in the stone, even if the opponent is an S-level powerhouse, don't try to defeat him easily. From a certain point of view, the sword in the stone is not inferior to the ancient winter coffin, Thor's hammer and the spear of eternity. However, even though they are the children of the British royal family, no one can refine the sword in the stone, even King Arthur back then, and every time he uses the sword in the stone, he must pay a huge amount of consumption. so it is.
As the second knight of the Knights of the Round Table, Gawain also has the blood of the British royal family. Compared with the mysterious Lancelot, Gawain's background is relatively easy to investigate. He was born in the 70s in the UK. At the peak of Queen Elizabeth II's reign, he was also a man of great power when he was young, but after he became a Knight of the Round Table, he gradually lowered his profile. Entering the new century, most people have not even heard of his name.
The earl with thick eyebrows and big eyes was standing in front of Ling Xiao, telling him what happened not long ago with a serious face.
Although S.H.I.E.L.D. has entered the era of Jeffrey Mays, at critical moments, it is Coulson's group who can really be used.
It wasn't until Coulson arrived in Miami with Fitz and Alfonso McKenzie that he was able to confirm that the geomagnetic pulse bomb had caused everything, because even after several hours, the continuous electromagnetic pulse was still being released. Come out, even those who have just entered the blackout area, all the electronic equipment they brought will be reimbursed and cannot be used.
But it is not without good news. It is precisely because electromagnetic pulses are still being released to the outside world, so this also gives them the opportunity to track the location of electromagnetic pulse equipment based on the released electromagnetic pulses, especially when they have someone like Fitz Top physicists in the case.
After some running around, the three of Coulson finally found the location where the electromagnetic pulse equipment was stored, but there, a small team of heavily armed soldiers was guarding the periphery of the electromagnetic pulse equipment, and Coulson and Alfonso McKinsey rushed over without even thinking about it.
With the two of them attracting the group's attention, Fitz carefully sneaked to the vicinity of the electromagnetic pulse equipment, and destroyed the electronic pulse equipment neatly. At this time, Coulson, who was being crushed and beaten And Alfonso McKenzie were instantly relieved that their hypnotist pistols and electronic arms were useless because of the electronic pulse, and now these things can finally be used.
Coulson and Alfonso McKenzie, who were in full combat power, knocked down this group of heavily armed fighters with three strikes, five divisions, and two. At this time, they discovered that this group of people actually belonged to the Overseer , and the head of the Overseers is Blake, an agent who previously belonged to the former S.H.I.E.L.D.
However, Coulson frowned tightly. You know, since the last time he discovered that Blake was secretly manipulating the monitors, he re-upgraded the security system inside S.H.I.E.L.D. to ensure that even Blake can There is no way to get information from the current S.H.I.E.L.D., but now the list of aliens inside S.H.I.E.L.D. is still leaked, but he doesn't know where to check it.
Since Jeffrey Mays took over the S.H.I.E.L.D. Bureau, he has strictly checked every internal member who can receive high-level secrets, and conducts a lie detector test every now and then to ensure that no one will be infiltrated into S.H.I.E.L.D. In the Shield Bureau, but now the problem still occurs.
After the incident was over, all parties gathered information, and finally found that a total of 17 aliens died in this incident. Teams of heavily armed monitor fighters found the positions of these aliens with great precision, and then put them on the spot. Fortunately, S.H.I.E.L.D. controlled the news in time, otherwise 17 aliens would be killed, which would inevitably cause an uproar in the entire alien world. This is absolutely what S.H.I.E.L.D. does not want to see.
However, the matter of the alien world can be dealt with later. What S.H.I.E.L.D. is facing now is the censure of the alien by the entire human world. Even within the U.S. government, several congressmen have stood up and called out the danger of the alien, demanding that the alien All the aliens were completely arrested and thrown into prison, regardless of whether they had signed the Sokovia supervision agreement, especially a member named Nadir, she was full of hostility to the aliens.
Just when the malice against aliens was surging, Jeffrey Mays, under Coulson's suggestion, directly announced to the public that he had become the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., and that he himself was a Stranger.
