Chapter 1214 Humanity is making preparations!
Nick Fury looked at Frank in front of him with a strange expression.
He doesn't quite understand Frank's plan now, although the situation is indeed as bad as Frank expressed.
Most of the powerful people at the top are busy, which in itself is not a sign of a stable world.
"By the way, the paladin that Canduras is training, do you have any clues?"
Nick Fury asked.
He changed the subject as if the previous conditions had never been spoken.
"SHIELD should have completed its investigation.
I don't think a guy like you needs to obtain that level of intelligence from me."
Frank first said this as if he was mocking.
"As for the Paladin, Johanna, the Nephalem, seems to be staying in Khanduras for the time being.
Although judging from the exchange between Johanna and Aidan, they have different philosophies.
I have no way of knowing the status of the Paladin's training, but I guess he is not a weakling."
Frank said with some seriousness.
He's not the kind of guy who doesn't want to joke, but he won't joke about such an important matter.
"The Nephalem have begun to enhance the power of humans. This may not be entirely good news."
Nick Fury frowned.
This was an easy judgment for him to make.
It's like SHIELD is starting to think of ways to give everyone better weapons, and that can only be because the weapons they are using now can't cope with those tasks.
The Nephalem began to increase the overall strength of mankind. This may mean that the Nephalem side believes that more warriors are needed to defeat the Burning Hell.
Whether it is to launch a general offensive, or simply to ensure the continuation of mankind.
Both goals represent increasing pressure on the human side.
“Of course, but I don’t care.
Things on the overall human level are not issues that I need to consider.
Now I only need to think about how to kill more Kill a few demons, or kill a few more villains.”
Frank said.
“The appearance of demons has reduced the number of villains on the human side.
Most of the worst ones have turned into demons.
And Those who have not turned into demons seem to have become a force that humans can fight for."
Nick Fury said with a wry smile.
Among the tasks that SHIELD needs to perform at this time, there will basically be no such tasks as attacking careerists.
On the contrary, investigating suspicious demonic incidents has become the main content of their work.
“Isn’t this a good thing for you?
Humanity has now become a whole, and the reduction in internal consumption is simply something I once dreamed of.”
Frank said with a bit of sarcasm.
Whether it was as a soldier or later as a punisher.
Frank has never liked bad people.
There are very few bad guys among human beings now, and the remaining ones can only be said to have conflicting interests with others.
But now the biggest interest appeal of the human side is just to solve the threat of demons.
Of course, be careful of those archangels.
But right now, what High-level Heaven is showing is more of a kind side.
At least there have been no angel attacks on humans.
"Okay, I will contact Deadshot myself.
Now I am going to see what Canduras has done with the Paladins."
Nick Fury put the empty cup in his hand on the table and said goodbye to Frank.
Frank just gestured with his cup, and didn't seem to have any intention of getting up to send it off.
Nick Fury just looked at Frank again, and then left on his own.
Going out of the room, you will find the street in Canduras that still seems a bit empty at this time.
Although the number of pedestrians is very small, there are not many vehicles on the road.
But the people who appear here are eager for life.
Nick Fury doesn't want to think about why people living here can have hope.
That is a problem that politicians need to consider, and it is also a goal that idealists need to devote themselves to.
He is just an agent, and at most he is known as the King of Agents.
If there is any other great advantage, it is probably his loyalty to mankind and persistence in his own beliefs.
Not far away is the registration office for the Crusaders’ recruitment.
Nick Fury looked at the long queue over there, then turned around and walked towards the center of Canduras.
There are two places in Khanduras that are very important.
One is the palace belonging to Leoric located in the center.
The other is a war outpost placed on the edge of the direction where demon attacks are most frequent.
A little further outside is the barrier opened by Candulas.
War outposts are places where soldiers rest and change shifts.
Whether it is the nephalem who came here to fight or the ordinary people who joined Khanduras and planned to use the devil to make a fortune, they can all be seen in that place.
After Nick Fury left, Frank's cabin returned to silence.
Frank did not come out from the direction of the main entrance.
He may have left through the secret passage inside.
As for whether the city's drainage system will become a channel for demon invasion, it is not very likely.
Leoric had already thought of this possibility. Under the ground in Canduras, there were bone spurs placed by Leoric everywhere.
The exit of the sewer is always controlled by Khanduras guards.
If a demon tries to invade from here, it will be difficult to escape human eyes and ears.
Even if a demon defeats the guards of Canduras head-on, the news will be passed directly to Leoric.
Then the bone spurs under the ground can spread like crazy.
This passage may have been reserved for those demons by Leoric from the beginning.
As for the angel armies brought by Angels Diesh and Aidan before, they were not idle either.
Leoric placed them on the walls of Canduras.
A rest post was also built on the city wall.
The city was built as a war fortress from the beginning.
As Aidan and Leoric discussed before, Khanduras as a human stronghold is mainly to share the pressure of the holy mountain of Harrogath!
Humanity needs a city like this to face the demonic war that will break out at some point!
Kanduras is just the beginning!
Many more cities like this will be built in the future.
The only difference is probably the combat power present in them.
......
Leoric was working in his office at this time.
Although most of these tasks seem boring, Leoric appears to enjoy them.
Facing such a task at least means that the city of Canduras has not yet entered a state of all-out war.
This is certainly something to be happy about.
He looked out the window. From the window on his left, he could directly see the Paladin's training ground.
There are already people being trained there, and the guards he sent to Buster Tower to show off the power of Khanduras have returned.
Javelin and Wise Man became the first people in Khanduras to begin paladin training.
The window on his right can directly see the direction of the war outpost of Khanduras.
There are still endless metal demons over there who are acting as contacts for those over there.
It’s just that the human warriors on the outpost have changed several times. It has become the best place for humans to gain experience in fighting demons head-on.
Although the number of Nephalem over there has decreased recently, the warriors over there are no longer in the dangerous state they were at the beginning.
After gaining more experience, the battle situation there is almost as anxious as before.
"Nick Fury, I just asked Aidan to stop what he was doing and plan to meet with you.
Then you said you wanted to come over in person.
Although I know You must have a suitable reason, but I'm still unhappy."
Leorick glanced at Nick Fury who just opened the door and said casually.
Even though Leoric maintained his human form at this time, the cold and crazy aura belonging to the Skeleton King was still exuding.
Leoric's image at this time is not that he has returned to his human state, but that he simply used a little deception.
After all, there are still many people from outside working in the power center of Canduras at this time.
After those people saw the true face of the Skeleton King, it took some time to calm down the fear in their hearts.
Although the aura of the Skeleton King can still affect them, it is still slightly better than seeing the majestic and burly skeleton directly.
“Things are always changing.
We have obtained Tyrael's flesh and blood tissue and plan to start studying it.
I just comforted Tyrael before, although I am not sure whether Tyrael was successfully pacified.
But at least he did not show obvious hostility or resistance. ”
Nick Fury shared the information he knew on his own.
This is also delimiting the scope of this conversation!
What Nick Fury needs is nothing else but Leoric's knowledge of the Archangels.
What he needs this time is not the things that can be easily obtained from the Nephalem, but the thoughts of Leoric, a guy who has been hurt by angels and demons!
The image of the archangel in Leoric's eyes is more accurate than the legend.
Even so, there is no guarantee that the information is correct, but it is good to know more.
“Of course you can’t appease Tyrael!
Because the act of appeasing is essentially the same as persuading.
But as far as I know, other archangels seem to have records of being persuaded.
But no one ever convinced Tyrael. "
Leoric put down the quill in his hand and looked up at Nick Fury and said.
"It's a bit troublesome to maintain this cover-up. I remember that you won't be scared by me. Bar? ”
After Leoric finished speaking, he showed his true form as the Skeleton King.
The empty eye sockets faced Nick Fury directly, and there were two blue flames vaguely in the eye sockets.
“We can’t know Tyrael’s purpose from him, and we haven’t discovered anything about the Archangel’s plan.
And although Tyrael bears the image of a human being, S.H.I.E.L.D. All anthropologists can't tell anything from his face.
All his actions and expressions are not that of a normal human being."
Nick Fury continued to talk about what he knew.
It is normal for anthropologists to be unable to discern Tyrell's thoughts.
This is not the first time Tyrell has left the High Heaven, but every time after that he will be unfamiliar with the human way of life.
This at least shows that Tyrell does not recognize the identity of human beings.
If you want Tyrell to behave like a normal human being, you must at least make Tyrell willing to learn the human way of life from a baby.
And this is impossible.
“You are doing unnecessary things.
It is not a bad thing to know the plans of the Archangels in advance, but without the power, you cannot do it even if you want to destroy their plans.< br>
The power required to do this is really huge.
At this time, the combined power of the upper levels of Canduras can probably suppress a single archangel.
But the name Tyrell is not among them. "
Leoric said with some self-deprecation.
With Aidan, him and Johanna, it is enough to suppress the Archangel of Wisdom or the Archangel of Courage.
If Johanna was willing to pay the price with her life, and it was okay to kill an archangel.
But it was just a normal battle. The three of them together could just overwhelm an archangel.
< br>
And such power is already very rare.
As for the archangel's situation, Leoric's strength was the most unfamiliar to him.
However, Aidan was able to give a relatively accurate answer.
He is the Dark Wanderer, the one who defeated Diavolo back then.
Although Diavolo was not his true form at that time, his strength was not far behind his peak.
After Aidan returned from the high-level heaven, he told Leoric all about the pressure brought by several archangels on him.
Tyrell put the most pressure on him, followed by Imprius.
After that, there is Malthael who is famous for his wisdom.
Of course, Aidan also emphasized that this feeling can only express the pressure of frontal combat at best.
He couldn't quantify things like conspiracy and calculation.
"Concerning Archangel, how should we treat Tyrael?"
Nick Fury directly asked the question he was most concerned about.
How to treat Tyrael!
Nick Fury was very worried about this time.
He has no intention of defeating Tyrael, nor does he intend to use Tyrael to further his plans.
Although Nick Fury considers himself a smart person, he is not arrogant enough to think that he is the only smart person in the world.
Using Tyrael is too risky a choice!
“You can do anything the way you want to do it.
Archangels don’t care what humans think of them.
At least that’s the answer I’m thinking about That’s it.”
Leoric straightened the crown on his head.
He didn't think Tyrell would be angry at being used by humans.
Even Leoric believes that if humans really succeed in using Tyrael, it is likely to be part of Tyrael's plan.
Although there is an irritable old man like Prius among the archangels, most of them are still wily ones.
And Leoric always believed that Prius's violent and reckless behavior was just a side he deliberately showed.
No matter how reckless is closer to bravery than cowardice, it is only close!
The gap between recklessness and courage may only be explained clearly by the Prius himself.
As for the conjecture that "because the Prius is the Archangel of Courage, it has no brains", Leoric himself took it as a joke.
There is no connection!
Even in Leoric's eyes, the Prius is even more dangerous!
He had hinted more than once that Bulqueso should be careful about the Prius.
"Simply put, treat Tyrell as an object placed there?"
Nick Fury asked.
This time Leoric just nodded.
At this time, Johanna's lecturing voice came from the window.
Johanna has been training as a paladin for some time.
As for those guys who were originally gathered by Leoric and had the talent and qualifications to serve as apprentices of the Necromancer.
Calculating the time, we should have reached the location designated by Rasma.
The cultivation of the Necromancer has been completely handed over to Rathma.
The final location Rasma chose was Dr. Doom’s La Tovilia!
No one knows the extent of the collaboration between Rasma and Dr. Doom.
It’s not even clear who will be the main partner in the collaboration between the two of them.
But it is certain that the Nephalem profession, the Nephalem, will take root in Latovilia.
Leoric is looking forward to the possible changes in La Tovilia.
After all, after receiving the help of Rathma, Latovillia is likely to become another war fortress similar to Khanduras.
The more things like war fortresses, the better!
This way, when a full-scale war breaks out, all the pressure will not be concentrated on one or two places!
