Chapter 26: The Butcher's Knife
"You are considered warriors if you can climb the Holy Mountain."
Bulkeso looked at this heavily armed team and acted very calmly.
"Today is the barbarian festival. You are lucky to be here, so please stay and attend the banquet."
Bulkesser has seen these guys with his own eyes, and there are no others. Got an idea.
Turning around, he took Jill's hand and walked towards the wide square in front of the Elder's Temple.
Of course, he did not forget to greet Gu Yi, but he obviously forgot to arrange the affairs of those agents.
There are no detailed rules for a barbarian banquet. After the opening performance, it is all about drinking and eating.
If you want to compete, you can start as long as you get the other party's consent.
When the moon begins to fall from the sky, the party comes to an end.
It's all that simple.
If you want to participate in the barbarian festival, you are qualified to participate as long as you can climb the sacred mountain of Harrogath. You can do whatever you want. There are no rules other than that.
Bulkessor took Gil and Ancient One out of the sight of this team of agents, leaving them at a loss.
They had sensed great danger from Bulcasso before, so after Bulcasso warned them in advance, they tried hard to restrain themselves from picking up their guns.
After all, their purpose here is not to fight, but to investigate.
Since the people in front of you can communicate, there is no need to turn into a hostile relationship immediately.
"Boss, what are we going to do next?"
The agents were confused. The agent who spoke adjusted the camera in front of him and captured the backs of Bulcasso and the others. .
They were not at all prepared for what would happen after reaching the top of the mountain.
After all, before they came here, there was no sign of life here from the results of satellite detection.
Although the ghosts were beyond their imagination, the sudden appearance of a person was more difficult to accept.
"Go look around and take photos! Video!"
Rumlow maintained his dignity as a senior agent and captain and arranged the actions of his men.
When they saw those ghosts, they had already contacted SHIELD headquarters, which was currently nervously investigating everything about the ghosts.
When Bulcasso appeared in the camera, the other side also began to move quickly to investigate the news about Bulcasso.
Of course, Jill is also within the scope of their investigation.
......
"Director, Rumlow has made a discovery, and I think you need to pay attention to it."
Agent Hill walked into Nick Fury's house The office immediately explained the matter.
A few days ago, when Team Rumlow said that they found nothing except that they could not reach the top of the mountain, he already felt that something was wrong.
After all, being unable to climb to the top of the mountain is already a magical thing for SHIELD's elite team. Even if the mountain is as high as Mount Everest, SHIELD can easily climb it.
But there is something strange about not being able to climb a mountain that doesn’t look very steep.
"What's wrong, a ghost appeared on that mysterious mountain with no one in it?"
Nick Fury told a cold joke, trying to relax his tight muscles due to constant work. nerve.
“Yes, and a person was found on that mountain.”
As Hill spoke, he put the computer in his hand in front of Nick Fury's eyes, which was playing the back view of Bulcasso and Gilgu leaving one by one.
"Mazefak!"
Nick Fury exclaimed and moved his one eye closer to the small monitor.
His exclamation was not because he saw Bulcasso walking shirtless in the snow, but because he saw Gill!
He and Frank Custer are good friends, and they are definitely not strangers to Frank's family.
Just after he learned about what happened to the Frank family, he had already used his own channels to intervene in the investigation.
According to what he knew, Frank’s youngest son should also have died in that gang fight!
It must be said that although those mages are not very powerful, they can still easily confuse their perceptions when facing ordinary people.
Besides, Ancient One was personally involved in handling the Gil matter, so Nick Fury and the others did not know what the truth was.
In other words, before that incident happened, it was impossible for SHIELD to get even a little bit of information about the Ancient One.
These mages have always had unique ways of avoiding detection by technological means.
Otherwise, with the way Ancient One appears and disappears all over the world, it would be impossible to escape SHIELD's control.
If the timeline had not escaped the control of the Ancient One, this guardian might still be hiding on the other side that the world knows about, doing her work quietly.
“Why?”
Nick Fury dragged his hands on his chin and muttered to himself, thinking deeply as he looked at the picture emerging on the monitor in front of him.
"Turn on satellite photography and focus the picture on that mountain!"
Nick Fury's arrangement was quickly completed. The monitor in front of him was divided into two halves. From the satellite's perspective, the mountain was still It was deserted.
On the screen sent back by the Rumlow team, you can see ghosts everywhere moving and reveling. This gave Nick Fury a headache, and he realized that he seemed to know something extraordinary.
"The location of Team Rumlow is indeed on that mountain."
Agent Hill guessed what Nick Fury wanted to ask and dared to give the answer before the black braised egg asked.
"A sudden appearance of a mountain, ghosts, a completely different form of civilization..."
"This matter has been raised to level ten confidentiality!"
Nick Fury He turned his one eye to Agent Hill beside him and gave his order.
If only an inexplicable mountain peak appeared, then he could treat it as if he had discovered the remains of an ancient civilization.
But at this time he had to be more cautious.
After all, the emergence of completely different forms of civilization reminded him of the aliens he had seen.
For the earth, the existence of aliens is still a matter that requires caution.
Thinking of this, Nick Fury put his hand on the pager on his waist.
“Perhaps you should turn back and watch the scene of the sturdy old man talking.”
Agent Hill reminded from the side.
......
"Uncle, what kind of meat is this?"
Gill watched as Bulcaisel threaded a large, somewhat incomprehensible animal thigh through the iron rod. He put it on the fire and roasted it, feeling a little curious.
The descendants of the purified Abyss Demonic Cow have long become the best source of meat.
Although there are other types of meat left in Harrogas, those things don't taste as good as this kind of meat.
“It’s the meat of a demonic cow. That kind of cow is much heavier than the ones you’ve seen.”
Even if Bulcaisel didn’t say anything, Gil could tell that the meat of this kind of cow was How huge the size is.
Just this thick cow leg, which is almost as big as Bulcaisuo, can reflect the hugeness of this creature.
As he spoke, Bulkesso took out a dagger that glowed with orange light and pierced the leg of the cow.
During this process, a series of "chirping" sounds came from the dagger.
The meat of this beef is very strong. If you don’t want the roasting process to be too long, it’s best to poke some holes in the meat now to allow the heat to penetrate deeper.
Jill looked at the dagger that made a strange sound, and was a little curious.
Even Ancient One shifted his gaze from the corbel to the dagger.
After all, weapons that can make sounds in this world are also magical things.
Bulcasso saw the two men's gaze and threw the dagger to Ancient One.
"The name of this dagger is the Pig Killer's Knife, a legendary weapon."
That's the end of Bulqueso's explanation. After all, barbarians don't use weapons like daggers very much.
However, there is a strange way of fighting among the Crusaders, and they use this somewhat funny weapon.
Barbarians don’t want that funny “chirp” sound to appear in their powerful battle cry when fighting demons.
But this is the legendary power of the pig-killing knife, perhaps because the souls of the pigs that once died under this dagger have been screaming in agony.
“It’s really interesting.”
Gu Yi held the dagger and looked at it carefully.
Beside her, Jill tugged on Gu Yi's sleeve and pushed her face closer to the direction of the dagger.
For a child, it is still too early to be exposed to this kind of weapon.
"Okay Gil, when you become a warrior and pass the trial, I will give you a legendary weapon. You are not suitable to touch it now."
Bulkesser was on the barbecue. Adding spices, he stopped Jill's exploration.
“When I become a warrior, I will hold the weapons I forged!”
Hearing Bulcaisso’s stop, Gil withdrew his eyes, but held on to them. Gu Yi's hand on the sleeve did not let go.
Obviously he is still very interested in the weapon that can make a chirping sound.
Gu Yi put the butcher's knife back into his sleeve robe and watched as the meat leg being roasted in front of him began to ooze grease.
Although the butcher knife is not one of those powerful mainstream weapons, it is powerful enough for Ancient One.
Bulkeso secretly gave Gu Yi this dagger, which could be regarded as making up for the long sword that was broken by his hammer.
Although that sword was also carefully forged by him, the difference in materials cannot be made up for by craftsmanship.
No matter how exquisite the forging technology is, it cannot forge scrap iron into a legend, and technology cannot change the essence of the item.
