"Ah, so this is our new Knight?"
Nick Fury rubbed his chin and looked at Robbie Reyes, who was lying in a giant glass ring in front of him. At this moment, the young man was in a deep coma. His upper body was bare, and it could be seen that his body, which should have been riddled with scars, was now smooth without a single scar.
A hint of curiosity flashed through the SHIELD director's single eye. He turned to look at Carter Slade.
"It's said that Hellfire can protect a Knight from any harm? Then why hasn't he woken up yet? "
"It takes time for the Spirit of Vengeance to fuse with a human soul."
Old Carter, who had changed into a very decent casual suit and was dressed like a millionaire, calmly cut a piece of steak and put it into his mouth. As he ate, he said, "That's right.
As he ate, he said, "Even a genius Knight like Johnny Blaze, who was chosen by Mephistopheles when he was young, took nearly two days to perfectly fuse with the crazy Spirit of Vengeance. I'll be honest with you. This young man only has the potential to become a Knight. His talent is slightly inferior to Johnny's … so he might need a little more time."
Fury nodded. He took a puff of his cigar and asked,
"Then what's going on with Saber Hawk? I heard that he's not a proper Knight? "
"Don't mention that disgusting guy in front of me!"
Old Carter put down the knife and fork in his hand with a look of displeasure. He picked up a glass of red wine and savored the rich taste from his era as he said with an ugly expression, "He's a freak that shouldn't have appeared! In the nearly ten thousand years since the birth of Ghost Rider, there has never been a bastard who can control the Eye of Repentance and Hellfire as a mortal. "
"Knight? Hmph … "
Carter drank the red wine in his glass in one gulp and let out a carefree moan. "He's not a Knight at all. He doesn't have the potential to become a Knight at all. He's just a … well, just a monster!"
"But I also heard that monster is the best at fighting among the current Knights."
Fury sat in the chair opposite Carter, spread his hands, and said with a smile, "Even Johnny isn't his match. The freak has suppressed the orthodox. Ha!"
The expression on Carter Slade's face immediately turned unhappy, but moments later, he heaved a sigh of relief and said with waning interest, "That's right.
"Whatever you say. Anyway, being in the same era as Saber Hawk is probably Johnny's biggest regret. He could have been the most terrifying existence in this world, but now, he can only be the second most terrifying existence … I've done what I promised you, what about what you promised me?"
The old knight rubbed his hands. Red flames danced in his eyes as he stroked his beard.
"Although I only have one chance to transform … If I find out that I've been deceived, I'll make you regret it … To be honest, do you want to see what your ship looks like after being demonized by hellfire?"
Fury shrugged and took out a folded document from his pocket. He looked at Carter Slade.
"Speaking of which, why are you always so impatient? SHIELD's credibility is still very good."
Carter rolled his eyes and whispered as he opened the file.
"Sorry, but that's how the people of our era communicated … F * ck, the maps of your era make me dizzy!"
He threw down the map while cursing and took out a document. He flipped it open and saw a photo of a family. If one looked closely, they would find that the faces of the old people in the photo were very similar to Carter Slade's face.
Old Carter fell silent as he looked at the photo. Fury explained, "This is the photo of the Slade family.
"This is a group photo of the Slay family from three years ago. Our people in Europe have already checked it out. If the information you gave us is correct, the Slay family living in a small town along the coast of Santorini Island is your direct descendant. They moved from Texas to Europe after the war 65 years ago and are now the biggest family name in that small town."
"Ah … 200 years later, the family still exists. This is probably the best news I've received in decades."
Old Carter touched the photo, and a faint joy appeared on his face. Fury took out a passport from his pocket and placed it in front of Slade.
"This is the new identity we've given you. You're the last elder of the Slay family in Texas, which is on the verge of extinction. Your complete identity certificate has been sent to Setonili Island three days ago. Your descendants should be waiting for you to appear now. However, you can't appear as an ancestor. You'll scare them."
Carter nodded, picked up the passport, and put it in his pocket. He looked up at Fury.
"After I return, I'll be your special consultant, but I don't have much time left. In at most 15 years, the flames of hell will completely dissipate. The spirit of vengeance in my body is already very weak, so I'll only work for you for five years! I want to set aside some time to accompany my descendants. I've already missed too many things. "
"I'm sure that we'll get along well for the next five years! Welcome to SHIELD, Mr. Carter Slade. "
Fury shook Old Carter's hand. At the same time, Robbie Reyes, who was trapped in the glass ring, struggled for a moment. The next moment, he opened his eyes.
In front of him was a thick glass cage. He was like a beast trapped in a cage. This unpleasant feeling made Robert quickly get up from the ground. He saw Nick Fury and Carter Slade standing in front of him. He pounced on them like a wild beast and smashed his fists on the glass. He looked at Carter and shouted, "Carter, I'm going to kill you!"
"Old bastard! What did you do to me! Where's my brother! "
"Don't worry, Mr. Robbie."
Fury put his hands behind his back and coughed softly. He looked at Robbie with his only eye, and his voice clearly passed into the completely closed glass cage.
"Mr. Gabe is receiving the best treatment, but I have to inform you regretfully that because of your reckless actions, your brother lost his left leg."
The SHIELD Director waved his finger and a blue screen appeared in front of Robbie's eyes. On it was the surveillance camera of Gabe, who had just finished the operation and was resting in the medical cabin. He looked at Robbie and said meaningfully:
"To be honest, ordinary people may feel despair when facing Kingpin, but I don't think the heir of the Reyes Family will have no way to fight against him. Although you lost your uncle, I believe that your uncle did not leave SHIELD's contact information. I'm curious, why didn't you use it when you were desperate?"
"Are you the force behind my uncle?"
Robbie was relieved when he heard that his brother was safe. As for the amputation, it wasn't a big deal. Robbie had grown up in a mafia family and had seen everything. As long as Gabe was alive, everything was fine. But soon, he turned his attention to Nick Fury. He looked at Fury and punched the glass in front of him. Before he realized it, a red flame lit up in his eyes:
"Bastard! You could have saved him, but you watched him be killed by Kingpin? Do you know that he was waiting for your rescue at the last moment of his life! "
Fury and Carter looked at each other and Carter nodded at him. Fury took a deep breath and continued with a straight face, "I'm not sure what to say.
"I'm sorry about the death of Mr. Eli Moreau Reyes, but if he hadn't made an illegal deal with Kingpin in private and fell out because of dissatisfaction with the deal, I don't think he would have died under SHIELD's protection. So, SHIELD is not wrong in this matter … But it's useless to say this now. What I'm more curious about is, don't you feel some kind of mysterious power surging in your body?"
"What the hell is this power!"
Robbie shook his hand fiercely. At this moment, a red flame jumped up on his arm and quickly burned his body. Robbie looked at all this in disbelief. He took a few steps back, but the hot Hellfire began to surge wildly and soon ignited his whole body.
"Ahhh!"
The pain of his flesh being charred to the point where his bones were exposed made Robert kneel on the ground. He frantically smashed his fists on the ground. Upon seeing this cruel scene, Fury's eyes flashed with a hint of hidden caution. Carter Slade calmly looked at Robert in front of him and whispered, "Don't worry.
"The first transformation is always the most painful. The flames from hell will wash away the sins of the knight's body, burning away his flesh and blood, leaving only the bones that hold the soul. The voices of Mephistos and the Spirit of Vengeance will echo in his mind. This is the most crucial step. Those without potential will have their souls captured, but if they can survive, they will receive the Spirit of Vengeance into their body. After this step is completed, the pitiful mortal will die, and a true knight will rise."
Bang, bang, bang!
The sound of Robbie smashing the ground grew louder and louder. Amidst this sound, Carter Slay's calm voice sounded terrifying.
"The pain of every transformation is the same. A truly outstanding knight can complete an instant transformation. At that time, pain is not worth mentioning to him. Johnny is outstanding because he has an extremely high tolerance for pain. Among all the Ghost Knights, he can be said to be the fastest to adapt to the transformation."
Fury nodded. He placed his finger on the control panel and asked in a low voice, "What do you think?"
He asked in a low voice, "Are we really going to throw him down?"
The old knight nodded.
"This is the last part of the ritual. The new knight has to destroy the first evil on his own and burn the sin to allow the Spirit of Vengeance to complete the final step of fusion. No one can interfere with this step because during this process, the Spirit of Vengeance will dominate the knight's body. He will enter a state of spiritual power rampage, and anyone who stands in his way will be treated as an opponent … This is very dangerous, so you have to throw him down and let him complete his first hunt in his life!"
Carter Slade watched as Robbie Reyes crawled up from the ground with his skeletal body after the last piece of flesh had been burned clean.
He said to Fury, "Now!"
Bang!
Fury pressed the button in his hand. The next moment, the sealed cover made of composite materials under Robbie's feet suddenly opened, and the new Ghost Knight fell from a height of 4,500 meters in free fall. The invisible Helicarrier was almost undetectable, as if a small fireball had been dropped. This was already close to the open sea, and below was a blue sea.
SHIELD had already planned everything to minimize the consequences of Robbie's first transformation. Staying on the sea was always the best choice, but the surveillance screen that had been following Robbie's fall suddenly blurred, and then Robbie's figure disappeared.
Fury raised his head abruptly and was about to speak, but Carter stopped him.
"Looks like you're in luck!"
"Huh?"
"This knight's Eyes of Repentance has a spatial attribute … He jumped through space to land!"
Carter Slay's eyes lit up with a fiery red light. "Prepare the fastest aircraft! Let's go after him! With the size of New York and the number of villains, once you lose track of him, prepare to set half of the city on fire. "
"The Quinjet is ready to take off at any time!"
Fury turned around and walked towards the deck. He asked in a low voice, "Can you catch up with him?"
"Don't underestimate me, Fury. From the moment I got the Eyes of Soulseeker until now, there's no spirit in this world that I can't find!"
