My surname is Stark, who changed my job to become a female big gun?

Chapter 381 That guy’s tragic fate has just begun

United States, New Mexico——

Accompanied by the roar of aircraft engines, a large military transport aircraft equipped with 6 special turbojet engines slowly emerged from mid-air.

"The optical camouflage module has been turned off, ground conditions are good, and landing is about to take place."

With the assistance of the new flight control system, Melinda was able to easily become familiar with the control system of this large transport aircraft.

Skillfully lowering the landing gear, Melinda used the intercom to alert the members of the investigation team in the cabin, and then smoothly landed the "Airbus" in a desert.

New Mexico has always been known as a "charming land" in people's word-of-mouth, but in fact the climate here is mostly a typical desert climate, and desertification is very serious, except for some areas near rivers and mountains. , its green vegetation coverage rate is pitifully low, and there are yellow sand and Gobi everywhere. People who are not familiar with it will get lost if they are not careful.

Perhaps this is the origin of the place's title of "Charming Land".

The investigation team didn't know the reason for this trip at first, but after realizing that Leni and Coulson's goal was New Mexico, they quickly thought of the 084 mission report about this place, which is the so-called "Thor God". Hammer" incident.

Here, S.H.I.E.L.D. confirmed the existence of Norse mythology. A great battle took place between Thor and the evil god Loki. As direct participants in that great battle, Leni and Coulson will return here. Now It seems no surprise.

A year later, the place does not seem to have changed much. It still looks desolate and lonely, as if everything it experienced was still yesterday.

It's just that the rugged battle marks on the ground have now been eroded by the wind and sand and have disappeared.

The only thing left that can prove everything that has happened in the past is the commemorative stone monument set up by S.H.I.E.L.D.

Leni slowly walked out of the cabin, accompanied by Coulson. He knew the purpose of Leni coming here and what she planned to do next.

"Is this... the battlefield where the great battle took place?"

Keeping a slight distance from the two people in front of her, Skye looked at the surrounding scenery curiously. She didn't know much about that past, but having read the information, she could more or less understand the mood of the two people in front of her at the moment. .

"This is probably the right place. That should be the stone monument set up by SHIELD for those victims."

Fitz's voice was a little low. As soon as the masturbation plane landed, he vaguely felt that the atmosphere here was a bit depressing, especially after noticing the serious expressions of Leni and the other two, they did not dare to speak loudly.

"That operation sacrificed 23 SHIELD agents, the youngest of whom was only 22 years old. So far, it is the only record of the death of an agent who performed a mission with Leni."

Stroking the sunglasses on his face, Meister slowly said the cold numbers, and a look of regret appeared on his face.

"22 years old? Leni is only 23 years old this year. Doesn't that mean..."

"Yes, this incident has obviously become a black mark on Leni's life history, and it is also a very, very glaring black mark."

After hearing this, Skye finally understood why Leni had so much hatred for Loki before, and the rift between the two turned out to be so deep.

"That's why she wanted to kill Loki before. If Thor and his father Odin hadn't stopped her, Leni would have..."

"I'm afraid I will really kill Loki with a knife."

Melinda took over Skye's words and finished her unfinished words.

It's no wonder that Leni has been feeling gloomy for a while. Even though she won a great battle, she always held her tablet and read information all by herself after the war, which made Skye and others think that Loki's matter was not over yet.

Seeing the two people not far away walking to the memorial stone and stopping in front of it, everyone in the investigation team stopped following them. They just watched from a distance and waited for the two to finish paying their respects.

[In memory of those who have sacrificed their lives for peace on earth! 】

There is only this line of words on the stone tablet. There is no signature, no specific name of the victim, and even the name of the person on whom the stone tablet was erected is not engraved.

If the two of them were not the participants in that incident, no one would have thought that such a thrilling war had happened here.

Reaching out and taking off her sunglasses, Leni stroked the words on the stone tablet without any expression on her face.

"Sorry, everyone, I didn't come to see you until now."

He took out a large bouquet from the void. Before coming here, Leni went to the flower shop to buy it and kept it in the warehouse. The water drops that the clerk sprinkled on the petals to keep them fresh were even still there. "I came in a bit of a hurry this time and didn't prepare too many things, but I brought watermelon specially. Last time, many people didn't have enough to eat. Don't worry, I will definitely take care of it this time!"

Not caring whether the ground was clean or not, Leni simply sat down on the ground without any ladylike manner. Then she took out a large pile of watermelons from the warehouse, cut them into segments one by one, and placed them one by one in front of the stone monument.

Colson on the side also squatted down when he saw this, and silently helped Leni cut the watermelon together.

"This damn place is extremely dry. I guess you haven't had a cold beer for a long time, right? Don't worry, I've already prepared it!"

"Don't say you can't drink during the mission. You are on vacation now. Drink as much as you want! Coulson is here with you. What are you afraid of? The worst is to drag him along!"

Hearing this, Colson smiled, reached out and took the bottle handed over by Leni, and took a sip into his mouth without hesitation.

"I'm sure!"

"Hey! That's right!"

Leni opened a bottle of cold beer and sprinkled it evenly on the ground.

The dry land did not give the wine any chance to accumulate. Almost as soon as the wine touched the ground, it was completely absorbed by the soil, leaving only clusters of snow-white foam.

"Look, each one of them is very hungry and thirsty, right? Wait, I'll bring you enough this time!"

Seeing what the two of them did, Skye and the others not far behind them couldn't help but secretly rub their eyes.

They did not understand the relationship between Leni and the victims, but this did not prevent them from empathizing with Leni's mood at this time. Although Leni did not show much sadness on her face, no matter who looked at it, This picture makes me feel uncomfortable.

Sighing, Melinda spoke softly:
"Leni has endured a lot on her own."

As a cavalryman, she was struck down by the huge psychological pressure after experiencing that incident. She had thought about getting over it many times. If she hadn't been invited by Coulson to join the team and gradually recovered from being together day and night, She is probably still working as a machine-like logistics clerk in that small cubicle.

As for Leni, who had a similar experience to her own, one could only imagine how much pressure she would feel and how heavy the burden would be.

Skye was thoughtful after hearing this. It was only at this moment that she realized that she didn't know Leni as well as she thought. This usually carefree girl also had an unknown side.

"The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility! This is what Leni said herself. She must also be very clear about what she is shouldering. I think she will grasp this balance."

Mester reached out and patted Skye's shoulder, a soft color flashing unnoticeably in his eyes.

Leni didn't pay attention to the comments of the people behind her. In fact, her mind was not on that at all at this time. She was still focused on joking and chatting with her comrades.

"Oh, by the way, I brought something specially with me this time. I almost forgot."

As if she suddenly remembered something, Leni put down the wine bottle, reached into the void with her right hand again, and took out a handkerchief stained with blood.

Noticing Leni's movements, Colson, who was sitting on the ground without caring about his appearance at some point, couldn't help but look startled.

"This is the blood on Loki's body. I cut it with my own hands! It's a pity that I promised that old man Odin to spare that guy's life, but I couldn't bring you an arm or leg or something to commemorate you."

Showing the handkerchief that was once used to wipe the blood from Heidao's body to the stone tablet, Leni recounted the situation at that time.

"...The guy was hit by Hulk's ax and was seriously injured. However, he has the blood of a Frost Giant and is protected by Odin's magic. The black knife alone is really a bit stretched. It's already pretty good if he can break through the defense. It's early. If you know that, I should use Kanshi Zhengzong to kill him..."

While muttering to herself, Leni took out a lighter from the warehouse and lit the handkerchief until the flame completely burned it.

"Although I didn't manage to kill that guy, for the sake of Odin's sake, let's forget it this time. This blood will be treated as interest, and the guy will pay it back in the future."

"Besides, don't worry, I can guarantee that Loki will never run wild on the earth from now on. This guy has been frightened by Hulk and I. He is a coward!"

"Besides, that guy's tragic fate has just begun. He will definitely have an easier time in the future, I promise!"
