Chapter 75
Chapter 75: The Breath Of Intelligent Creatures
The magic spell attached by Odin, the king of the gods, to Thor’s Hammer makes it an “unshakable thing” in the eyes of ordinary people.
Although the exact corresponding conditions are not clear, from the perspective of the characteristics of the person who can pick it up, the so-called “qualification” is nothing more than justice, perseverance, protection, sacrifice and other characteristics.
However, Oaks does not possess all these qualities.
His heart is justice, and he is firm enough to protect him, but at the point of sacrifice…
He had already sacrificed in the last life, but the events behind him that he didn’t need to think about had troubled him for a long time.
Therefore, in this life, he must firmly grasp his own destiny.
The unshakable Thor’s Hammer proved his position on himself.
However, this did not prevent him from clearly perceiving the terrifying power of thunder contained in that hammer.
This is a powerful weapon made of Ulu metal, and the endless thunder magic makes it invincible——
Unless the opponent has a much stronger magic power than it, it is almost indestructible in most cases.
But ordinary people are not even qualified to perceive this kind of power.
The reason why Oaks can feel the existence of this power is precisely because of his mastery of balance spells.
He also has a lot of experience in eliciting the power of thunder.
“What an amazing creation…”
The Thor’s Hammer in Oaks’ eyes was different from what Coulson and the others saw.
In addition to the hammer head made of Ulu metal, the hammer handle of Mjolnir is made of a very special wood.
Oaks could clearly perceive that on the handle of the hammer, although it was insignificant, it did exist, the deep natural aura belonging to plants—
Unfathomable!
In this world, theoretically…
According to legend, the source of the material for the handle of the hammer, the “tree of the world”, should be a cosmic phenomenon that has no entity.
Is it some other exotic tree species?
“Your judgment is not wrong, this thing should indeed have an owner.”
Oaks closed his eyes in front of the hammer for a long time, and then temporarily suppressed his doubts in his heart and opened his eyes:
“Colson, I think you have something to do.”
“Have you found anything, Advisor Oaks?”
Coulson’s spirit was lifted, and he really deserved to be Mr. Consultant. He discovered the problem when he first arrived?
However, does it mean that this hammer, like an animal, can sense its thinking?
This is too ridiculous…
“This hammer has the aura of its owner remaining, and there is no doubt that it is the aura of an intelligent creature.”
Oaks’ serious nonsense made Coulson’s eyes jump:
“Because hundreds of people have tried to pull it up.”
And that includes all of us and yourself.
If we hadn’t stopped it in time, I’m afraid the handle of the hammer would have been pulped when you came.
The breath of God, such an intelligent creature…
“But Coulson, I can say responsibly that this breath is not from the earth’s intelligent creatures, that is, human beings.
You know that I am very sensitive to the breath of life… I can even perceive that the two subordinates behind you, the one on the left, has a wound on the right index finger. ”
Coulson raised his eyebrows and turned to look at his subordinate—
He wears a glove on his right hand.
“Uh… that’s true, sir.”
The man in black twitched the corners of his mouth and took off his right glove. There was indeed a wound on his index finger:
“I got scratched when I installed the equipment yesterday, so I found gloves and put them on.”
“…”
Coulson turned his head silently: “What are we going to do?”
Oaks wasn’t completely fooled by him either.
There is indeed Thor’s magic power remaining on the hammer, which is his own thunder power.
Because up to now, Thor has relied on the power of Thor’s Hammer to guide the power in his body, and he cannot actively release the power of thunder in his body.
Although Thor has now been sealed by Odin and has become a mortal body, Odin has not deprived him of his power.
That was just to scare him.
If he is close enough to Thor, Oaks can indeed determine his identity through the power of Thor’s Hammer.
It’s just that he and Coulson can’t explain it that way.
“One more thing…”
Oaks returned to Coulson and whispered:
“I heard that you confiscated a group of observation equipment from folk astronomers this morning?”
“It’s like this, because on the night of the incident, they were observing not far from this area–
Among them was Dr. Banner’s former colleague, astrophysicist Dr. Eric Selvig. ”
When Coulson said this, he gave a wry smile:
“It’s just that they don’t seem to understand our approach.”
“…Nonsense, what’s the difference between your approach and that of a robber? Although you paid for it, you must know that for those real scientists, personally modified instruments and precious data can’t be exchanged for no amount of money.”
Rolling a glance at Coulson, Oaks complained:
“If you used to do things like this at my place, believe it or not, how tall are the grass on your grave now?”
“…I will apologize after the matter is over.”
Coulson’s smile was even more bitter, and yes, the guy in front of him was a ruthless man who wiped Obadi’s neck in front of Tony, and he was completely different from the cowardly Dr. Selvig.
But later they found out that this cowardly doctor also knew Dr. Banner.
Not only that, it seems that he has something to do with a former important figure in S.H.I.E.L.D.
“Where is the nearest town?”
Hearing Oaks’ question, Coulson came back to his senses:
“It’s Ancient Bridge Town, advisor, Dr. Selvig is there, are we going to block the town?”
“That’s too much movement, so investigate secretly—see if there are any unidentified people who have suddenly appeared recently.”
Oaks pointed to Thor’s Hammer, which was still lying on the ground:
“Since it is a weapon of intelligent creatures, it is difficult to associate it with non-humanoid creatures, right?
If you go to an unfamiliar place, what is the first thing you do? ”
“Hide and gather intelligence.”
Coulson was enlightened:
“Mr. Consultant, you mean ~www.readwn.com~ the owner of the hammer may be hiding in the crowd? But there was such a big movement at that time…”
“If he still has the ability to cause such a big movement, why is there no movement at all these days?”
Although Oaks is very clear, this guy Sol is a reckless man now, and it is completely impossible to hide it to collect information…
But at least for this reason, S.H.I.E.L.D. can monitor Guqiao Town to avoid subsequent casualties.
“Secretly prepare a rescue team, and plan for the worst. If Pendragon comes, he draws his sword in the stone…”
Oakes looked at Coulson’s serious expression and nodded:
“Then we humans are Saxons to him?”
“…I understand, let’s prepare now.”
By collecting atmospheric observations, S.H.I.E.L.D. has confirmed beyond any doubt that the hammer came from outside the atmosphere.
In other words, the possibility of this thing coming from an extraterrestrial civilization is extremely high.
Oaks’ words proved that this hammer has an owner, and it is not a human being on earth.
How alien life sees people on earth, this is completely out of SHIELD’s control.
The only thing Coulson can do is to ensure that in the event of a conflict, the people from Guqiao Town will be evacuated in time.
But as Oaks said, the unknown target cannot be alerted in advance, so it can only be done in secret.
“Consultant… Will this unknown target conform to our human aesthetics?”
Dr. Banner was about to arrive, and Coulson, who came to greet him, was a little worried about whether he could judge the goal this time from the appearance.
Oaks twitched the corners of his mouth and touched his chin:
“…Maybe it’s like a shocking male protagonist?”
