If it weren't for the accident in London (the ether energy of the reality gem leaked), Li Jie and the others probably wouldn't have discovered that there was another civilization hidden in this world, a remnant of the previous civilization.
This secret had been hidden by Nick Fury, and he was probably the only one in the world who knew about it. He also secretly helped the leader of the Inhumans, King Blackbat, search for awakened Inhumans to fill the population of the Inhumans.
Li Jie didn't know what conditions King Blackbat had promised Nick Fury to agree to this. Because Nick Fury wasn't a person who was easy to negotiate. The Black Cyclops was a guy with a dark heart.
But thanks to Tony Fury, he and King Blackbat had established a relatively perfect communication channel for more than a decade. Communication between the two sides also avoided a lot of possible trouble. Overall, Nick and the Inhumans' cooperation was good for Earth.
At least the advantages outweighed the disadvantages. At least he could know who the Inhumans were on Earth and whether they were malicious or not.
It was also because of this perfect communication channel that Nick was able to quickly communicate with King Blackbat and convey Li Jie's intention: a friendly greeting.
"Do I need to change into a suit or something? Do I need to wear a tie or bow tie? "Li Jie asked Nick Fury. They were now in a small town in Nevada. Or rather, in a small town.
Nevada was a place where the climate of the sea and the climate of the continent coexisted. There was a pleasant scenery of green mountains and clear waters here, but there was also a boundless wilderness and desert. For example, the famous gambling city of Las Vegas was built on the desert terrain of Nevada.
The town Li Jie and the others were staying in seemed to be a residential area. From the sign, it seemed to be called Kesmo-Something City. But Li Jie felt that calling this place a city was a bit too flattering.
Judging from the houses left behind, it was estimated that there were only a few thousand people at its most prosperous time. The whole city was built along a main road. Almost all the buildings that could be seen were on both sides of this street. It was a city that thrived because of the highway.
Perhaps in the past, many passers-by who drove past here used this place as a resting place, which made this small town prosper. But after the opening of the new highway, the old highway was abandoned, so the town was abandoned.
Li Jie and Nick Fury were sitting in a place that was supposed to be a fast food restaurant in this town. However, because the sign of the fast food restaurant had fallen off, Li Jie couldn't tell whether the restaurant was Mr. Charming or the Golden Arches.
But it shouldn't be Planet Calor or Burger King, because there was no sign of Potato King on the menu.
After arriving, Nick and Li Jie cleaned the table by themselves. Thanks to the evil man-made materials, although high-strength engineering plastics could not be degraded in nature for thousands of years, from another point of view, the tables and chairs made of man-made materials such as engineering plastics and stainless steel were still quite useful after being vacant for decades. And it was easier to clean up.
The appointed time with King Blackbat hadn't arrived yet, so Li Jie had to chat with Nick for a while. Although Li Jie didn't really like Nick (and Nick didn't like Li Jie either), there were still some necessary questions to be asked. However, there were still some necessary questions that needed to be asked, such as about King Blackbat.
Because after this, Li Jie would have to face the leader of a race. Negotiating with such a high-ranking person required a little skill. It was best to know in advance what the other party liked and what their taboos were. This was to prevent himself from being struck by lightning for no reason. If he were to be struck by lightning, it would not be good.
"So, do I need to wear formal clothes? Will wearing a hood make me look indecent? Do I need to change into a suit and tie? " Li Jie touched his chin and asked Nick if his attire was appropriate. He asked with some concern, "What kind of person is King Blackbat? Is he serious or serious, or is he a very cold middle-aged man? Is it difficult to communicate with him? "If King Blackbat was a serious person, it would be troublesome.
This was the first time in Nick's life that he had talked to Nightcrawler alone. The last time he had a drink with the Punisher, although Nightcrawler was also there, it was fine at that time. Now that they were alone, he inexplicably felt that Nightcrawler was very annoying.
Especially when he heard Nightcrawler describe King Blackbat as a very cold middle-aged man. Nick looked at Li Jie with some surprise. "Where did you hear this from?"
"Nickname!" Li Jie shook his finger. "King Blackbat. What can you think of when you hear this nickname?"
"What?" Nick couldn't keep up with Li Jie's train of thought.
"Nightingale! The popular hero in DG's comic, Nightingale! The middle-aged man with a butt and chin! "Li Jie said in a heavy voice." Isn't he a man of few words and not good at communicating? Remember the story of 'Nightingale vs. Heliobolus'? Isn't it just two stupid men who aren't good at communicating fighting each other? "
"King Blackbat. His nickname sounds a bit like Nightingale. If he was a man like Nightingale, it would be very troublesome. This kind of person is generally paranoid, somewhat hysterical and neurotic. They are often only a fine line away from lunatics, always wandering between genius and lunacy. I hate dealing with people like this the most. "
Nick: … "You're using a comic character to measure a real-life leader? Is that really okay? "
Li Jie shrugged. "Nightcrawler has also published a comic, my personal publication. It's published by Marvel Comics. My personal publication's last issue of the comic magazine ranked twelfth on the American comic sales list, a bit bad. In addition, DG only has Nightingale's personal publication left in the top ten. In fact, Nightingale has always been the top seller in the United States. The other publications can't even get into the top twenty. "
"You don't read comics?" Li Jie turned to ask Nick this question. The Black Cyclops shook his head.
"Ah, then you should really take a look. It seems that Agent Hill has agreed to adapt Agent S.H.E.L.D.'s comic. She has already sold the rights to Marvel. Maybe they will also have your image. By the way, did you give them your bank account number? "Li Jie's words made Nick clench his fist.
Why do I want to beat someone up? Nick couldn't find a suitable reason, but he just wanted to find someone to beat up. But before he could find someone to beat up, he heard the sound of footsteps.
It seemed that King Blackbat had arrived. Nick loosened his fist and asked Li Jie, "Did you bring the thing I asked you to bring?"
Li Jie nodded solemnly. "I did. But is it really good to give this to King Blackbat as a greeting gift? "
Nick Fury smiled faintly. "It couldn't be better. Trust me, this is King Blackbat's favorite gift. "
