Chapter fifty-ninth climax after another
A few minutes later, the Kerry soldier had already stood up again. He picked up his axe, his eyes were in a daze, and he was like a drunkard who had just stumbled out of the bar towards the depths of the dark forest.
Skye has also recovered at this moment. She stood up with the support of the tree trunk, looked at the vicious Kerry's back as she left, and asked, "Just let him go back like this... Is it really okay?"
"I made a little adjustment to his memory. He wouldn't remember what he had happened on Earth." Michael said. "He would just think that his reconnaissance was nothing, and then told his superior Inhuman experiment that failed after all."
Skye breathed a long sigh, and she leaned softly against the tree trunk, "What you did to him just now...is it the same thing you did to me in the temple?"
"You said hypnosis curse? You were out of control at that time and almost demolished the entire city." Michael said, "I helped you calm down."
Skye was silent for a while.
"Thank you," she said.
"Don't thank me. I went to that city just to get something, and I'm here now because a deep space exploration satellite monitored the blue guy just now landing in this area." Michael paused and stressed, "And I'm a terrorist, a bad guy, remember?"
"AsiaShield put all the people with extraordinary power and unknown identity on the list of high-risk wanted warrants. I understand how their program works." Skye looked at him tentatively, as if he wanted to try to see his reaction through the black armor, "But I don't think you are a bad person."
After a pause, she looked at her muddy hand and smiled bitterly: "In fact, if you want to follow the evaluation procedure of ASCHEN, I feel that I am not far from being on that dangerous list. I am mentally prepared to spend the rest of my life in this woods."
Michael thought about it.
"Maybe this is not necessary," he said. "Maybe ASCHE is not your only option."
Skye was stunned: "What does it mean?"
"It means that your new abilities are something that cannot be understood by ASCHEN, so maybe ASCHEN is no longer a suitable place for you." Michael said, "but if you want to continue on the field and continue your previous work, I happen to have a vacancy here."
"You mean...like Agents?"
"A little bit like, just a little more precise work." He shrugged. "I'm forming a special response team, a team of people with extraordinary talents like you, specializing in the involvement of regular agents who might not be able to handle events."
Skye looked at him suspiciously.
"You are not saying... you happen to have an agency like ASCHE, responsible for maintaining the security of the world, or something?"
"Similar, but you can only know more if you promise to accept the job," Michael said. "Of course, like ASUS today, this institution does not exist in theory. But most importantly, you no longer feel isolated. No one on the team will think you are an alien because everyone is the same."
Skye bit her lip and seemed to feel that the offer was tempting.
After a while of confusion, she joked: "If I say refuse... you wouldn't just raise your hand and blow my head off with one shot, right?"
"I'm not the kind of person who likes to force others to go against their will, Agent Skye. I sincerely hope you join the team, but it's an invitation rather than a force. If you refuse, I will only regret it."
Skye took a deep breath.
"I... well, thank you very much for your suggestion, really," she said, "but I don't think I'm ready to leave ASHIELD. Being Agent really means a lot to me, ASHIELD means home to me, I can't just say that...I'm sorry."
"It's okay." Michael waved his hand and activated the propeller behind the armor. "Then good luck, Agent Skye. I hope you will return to the team soon."
After he said that, he really didn't stop at all. He pushed the flames and suddenly ejected, lifted his armor and rushed into the sky, and quickly disappeared into the night.
Skye took a rest for a while, then tried hard to cheer up and turned back along the small slope. She dragged her heavy and tired body back to the wooden safe room, and lay softly onto the sofa in the living room like a bone was sucked.
The tiredness came again, and the experience of surviving the disaster made her sleepier than before. But she couldn't rest for the time being. She had to report to Colson about her stimulating experience tonight, and then she had to find a medical box to deal with the wounds on her body.
At this moment, her right arm had gradually recovered from consciousness. Although it was still painful, it seemed that it was not hurt at least. It took a lot of effort to force herself to stand up from the sofa and go to several large cabinets in the room to search for the medical box.
A knock on the door sounded strangely.
Skye paused and looked towards the door with a ghost-watching expression.
No, right? Come again?
She had regretted the daytime telling Colson that this place was too boring. It turned out that this forest hut had nothing to do with the word "boring". She had a premonition that when she walked up and opened the door, she would find another blue-faced alien standing at the door, holding an axe in her hand and chuckling at her, saying, "Don't be too proud. What you just sent me was the weakest of the Four Heavenly Kings of Kerry, why don't we gesture again?"
You are a big-headed ghost! It should be almost done with one episode and one climax at the rhythm of the TV series. Is it too much to come again?
Calm down. At least this time the other party knocked on the door politely, so it must be no guy as rough as the Kerry just now. If that guy just now, he would be more likely to break in the door without saying a word.
Skye tried her best to keep her breathing stable and walked slowly towards the door. She gently opened a crack in the door and looked out, and couldn't help but be stunned on the spot.
It was completely different from what she expected. There was a person standing outside, with a brown jacket and gray straight-leg pants. She was dressed quite well, but she was definitely not a normal person.
Because this person has no eyes.
It does not mean blindness, but literally no eyes. The position on his face that should have been occupied by both eyes was blank and there was nothing, just like he had no organ like eyes when he was shot out of his womb.
"Hello, Skye." The man spoke in a calm voice. "You are scared, but I think you promise that there is no need to be - especially there is no need to be scared of me. Because I am an alien like you, and I am your companion. I came here to take you to where you should belong...I am here to take you home."
***
Somewhere, in a dark laboratory.
The man was lying on the bed for experiments. He was naked, revealing his rock-like muscles. His hands and one leg were fixed to the bed - the reason why the other leg was not tied was because he didn't have it at all.
He only has one leg.
A fashionable man wearing a white suit and blonde hair walked over with a smile and said to the man with a spring breeze: "Relax, nothing is worth nervous. Many years later, when you look back on the past, you will find that volunteering to participate in our projects is the most unforgettable decision in your life."
The white-clothed researcher came over with a syringe, the man in the suit stepped aside, and made a gesture that they could start.
The syringe pierced into the muscles of the man's right arm, and the lilac liquid was pushed through his blood along the needle. A few seconds later, the man's face began to twist. At first he gritted his teeth and persevered, but the pain soon exceeded the limit of his ability. He began to moan and growl, and the flames lit up under his skin, as if a pile of firewood was burning vigorously under his skin. But the leg that he had originally broken began to grow rapidly under the urging of some unspeakable force, and a new leg that grew hot and red in less than ten seconds.
The man in the white suit showed a satisfied and happy smile.
"Ladies and gentlemen," he said loudly, "Let us warmly welcome the new companion to join...a brand new desperate warrior!"
