She was already the person who saw the Praetorians most often in the world. However, facing a giant who was one-third taller than her, Victoria Hand still couldn't restrain her urge to hold things tightly to protect herself.However, as the food was served on the heavy marble table in an orderly manner by the automatic machine, she also felt a little more relaxed. It was not until the end of the mechanical service that the commander of the imperial army, Constantine, took off the gorgeous and exaggerated red gold helmet. Victoria Hand saw his face for the first time.

1200ksw.
She felt her palms sweating.This is a pure feeling of humbleness and tension, which is the subconscious tension and vigilance generated deep in the animal genes in the face of higher evolutionary creatures.This kind of situation shouldn't happen to a long-term special agent, but facing that kind of quiet and noble face, all the experience she had trained in the past had no effect, and it was even difficult to look into his eyes.In retrospect, Victoria Hand seemed to never be able to accurately recall the face of the emperor, but her subconscious mind told her that Constantine seemed to have some resemblance to the emperor.It wasn't until Constantine picked up the cutlery that the atmosphere eased a little, but she still couldn't take the initiative in the conversation like she did with other people.

"I thought you'd be younger." The head of Defense Intelligence tried to cut through the too thick steak with a knife.Although the smell of incense from the Praetorian Guards' power armor slightly spoiled the aroma of delicious food, she also learned to eliminate the interference, "You guys haven't been around him for a long time, at least you were still there when he recruited me." No, it stands to reason that you should only be a few years old."

Although she is not a gourmet, she has also had the experience of dining in high-end member-only restaurants, not when performing tasks, but thoroughly enjoying food time.Even she could tell that the plate in front of her was too big, the steak was too thick, and all the dishes were exquisite but surprisingly large.

Cooking such meat requires the chef to have full patience and high professional standards. If it is not to meet the needs of diners, there is no need for the chef to devote himself to it.She couldn't help thinking that the person Constantine was going to meet today was actually another Guardsman rather than an ordinary person like her. It's just that he didn't have time to inform the kitchen to change the menu. Anyway, it certainly wasn't because he was worried that she was too hungry.Victoria Hand won a staged victory with a table knife, but she hesitated, whether such food would break some etiquette she didn't understand if it was stuffed into her mouth without being divided again.

"Why did he create you? Is there anything he can't do that needs you to do?" Victoria Hand asked common sense to impress the people across the table, if the Praetorians can still be regarded as human beings.She hardly saw any expression on Konstantin's face, not even a micro-expression when he was breathing. The black flexible metal soft seal of the power armor was tightly pressed against the rock-like muscles on his neck, and Victoria could almost imagine The grinding sound of those muscles moving.

The Commander-in-Chief of the Janissary raised his head to look at her, his neck muscles did not rub against each other.

"Yes." After closing the communication grill on the neck armor, his voice was more natural than before, "I am not young, in fact I don't know my age. My Lord needs a servant with a strong will, because He is too powerful, everything around him will be swallowed by time, only he is not affected, this is a feeling that ordinary people can't imagine."

...

"Your memory was erased?"

"Smashing, reorganizing, sublimating. The body is just a carrier, and what is really sublimated is my soul." His expression remained unchanged, "This is just a metaphor for you to understand, not a fact. The human brain cannot understand this kind of counter-intuition The trials I have experienced are long enough for the baby to breed a family." Victoria Hand subconsciously pressed the badge on his collar.It was a tiny anti-tapping device.While she was interested in what the Praetorians had to say, professionalism subconsciously demanded of her. "There is such a device here, and it's even better." Such an action only attracted Constantine's slight glance, "I invite you here to reveal more secrets to you."

"You really need to do this. You want to talk to me, don't you? About the alien star castle brought by Ke Boyin?" Victoria Hand put down the tableware, not intending to continue entangled with these foods, "Now Kosovo is still During the military blockade, my people can find a hundred guns and a hundred people who use them from residential areas every day. Those people are using the stark group satcom link, in order to track down the backers , I almost dispatched a quarter of the available manpower, compared to an alien fortress in the Koboyin belt, it seems not that important."

"By comparison, yes." The Janissaries agreed, "but not with Kosovo."

"Could it be an alien fleet?" Victoria Hand asked. "We haven't observed a large-scale alien fleet yet. All we can find are asteroids and Gama radiation storms."

"That's a public statement." Constantine looked at her calmly, "Do you still remember the Battle of New York in 2012, and those Chitauri fleets that invaded?"

"It's hard not to remember."

"Then do you know that when my lord destroyed the Chitauri fleet through the portal opened by the Rubik's Cube, a small amount of fleet wreckage smashed into New York through the portal?"

"I remember the cleanup of what was left of the Chitauri was given to the Stark Corporation and the Pentagon."

"Yes, we all know the relationship between the Stark Group and the Pentagon. In fact, the Stark Group does not have the right to research the Chitauri wreckage. They are only responsible for digging out those things from the ruins. Star technology products will be taken away by the Pentagon. Before SHIELD was destroyed, SHIELD was also responsible for researching some of them. The Navy and Air Force also obtained a lot of research materials, and many people obtained military-industrial complexes. interests." Constantine also put down the cutlery and put his hands lightly on his knees, "Do you still remember General Fisher?"

"Former air force four-star general? I remember he was arrested for corruption and bribery."

"He's Hydra, Dr. Danny Whitehall's man, a product of Project Paperclip. General Fisher wasn't in our sanctuary while the Pentagon was going after Alexander's remnants. Before that he accepted Zita After researching and sorting out Rui’s wreckage, he unearthed an item from it, that is, that item let us know the news that Ke Boyin’s belt exists in the alien star castle.”

"I'm curious." Victoria Hand narrowed her eyes, "Who owns that thing now?"

...

"It's a machine that uses pan-dimensional technology. It's not big, but it can travel faster than the speed of light in the galaxy. General Fisher tried to repair the machine, but he didn't have a chance to find the real use. Until a hydra that bowed its knees to our lord was protected, took over General Fisher's previous plan and discovered it, and through that machine came into contact with the aliens in the star castle of Koboyin Belt. Just like you As far as we know, the most powerful deterrent in Latvinia is the teleportation strike. That machine is consistent with our teleportation strike principle, but what is surprising is that there are ordinary people who can survive without protection. Send it multiple times."

"Hale!" Victoria Hand said the name as if squeezing out venom, "Is she also Hydra?"

Constantine ignored her personal emotions.According to the data, Victoria Hand and General Hale, who was still a one-star general at the time, had a fairly harmonious cooperative relationship. At that time, the relationship between S.H.I.E.L.D. "That is an alien trade alliance headed by the Kree. It is a very fragile alliance, a trade alliance composed of humble careerists in the Kree Empire and several other weak races that should have disappeared long ago. Rescue from the coming alien fleet attack only needs to pay the resources and population of the earth. It is conceivable that this is a scam, they do not have this ability."

"What do you want me to do?"

"Arrest those members of the Alien Trade Alliance and rob that star fort." Constantine said, "I will give you specific permissions and equipment, and I will also inform you of all the information you need. We can obtain information from those aliens. Get information about the alien fleet from the population, such as ship-borne weapons, hull armor materials, combat capabilities of alien races other than the Chitauri, etc., all information will be useful in the decisive battle."
