Marvel Book of Magical Events

The three people involved in the negotiation walked out of the room. Judging from General Hale's expression, she seemed to be a little bit embarrassed about some of the requirements in the negotiation conditions. Stephanie knew why she thought this way, but as long as she completed the first few tasks, Stephanie would give her some information and permissions, so that she would no longer have any doubts about the extremely difficult tasks in the following terms. Before that, General Hale needs to prove his ability and reflect his value. As for surrendering directly to the intelligence department, don’t even think about confessing that the Malik family is a Hydra—not to mention that she has no way of determining which people in those departments are Hydra.

Ruby parted with a very enthusiastic “kiss,” at least Stephanie hoped it was just a kiss, or she figured she’d have to find out later if the monarch was interested in the little girl. Especially when the little girl's fertility was assured by Dr. Whitehall, her womb was a fertile field of astonishing fecundity. Stephanie's biggest concern is her own fertility. According to her observation, under Salomon's amazing charm offensive, Ruby would never mind having a good time with the monarch. What's worse, Ruby was not wearing the same clothes when she left the Hydra youth training camp as she was wearing now.

Putting herself in her shoes, Stephanie would never refuse, which was enough to make her feel a sense of crisis.

I hope to see you again next time. Ruby had a gift from Salomon hanging on her waist, and she couldn't put it down to the exquisite long folding hunting knife and pistol. I'm going to have to do another skydive, she said hopefully.

Your wish will be granted, Ruby. Salomon responded affectionately. He knew how much General Hale loved his daughter, and controlling Ruby was equivalent to controlling General Hale. It is not that no one in Hydra pursues General Hale, but in order to conceal the existence of Ruby, she shuts everyone out, which is enough to prove the importance she attaches to Ruby. Salomon doesn't need to do anything, all he needs is a superficial attitude. After saying goodbye to everyone one by one, he turned and walked into the depths of the completely dark passage, and the giant in golden armor followed behind him step by step. With orange-red sparks flickering, the mystic and the golden-armored giant disappeared on the other side of the portal.

It's a wonderful experience. I thought I knew enough, but now it seems that I never know what secrets this world hides. General Hale turned his gaze from the corridor back to Malik and his daughter. She was full of emotions about the previous negotiation process, and at the same time wondered whether the Malik family also turned to that man for the same reason. She didn't know the man's name from beginning to end. Even though he gave General Hale time to ask Ruby, even Ruby didn't know his name, she only knew his extremely shocking opening remarks and very powerful fighting ability.

I don't even know when you're not Hydra anymore.

We've always been Hydra, General Hale. Stephanie answered in place of her father, It's just that Hydra is now his subordinate, and always will be. The stronger he is, the stronger Hydra will be. I think we can negotiate some detailed terms, can't we?

General Hale keenly noticed that Stephanie seemed to be in a higher position than his father, the spokesperson of the Malik family. She speculated about the changes that had taken place in the Malik family. General Hale glanced at his daughter. It was obvious that Ruby was still overwhelmed by Salomon's departure. She knew that her daughter's heart had been taken away. Ruby, who was still in the rebellious stage, did not jump directly into the portal because she taught well and the Hydra training method was effective.

I want to talk about Ruby first, she said, if what he promised is true.

My lord's promise is a decision, and no one can change it. Stephanie smiled all over her face, But outside of the contract you signed, we can still reach some consensus. Come on, let's have a formal dinner and talk about it after we have filled our stomachs.

My lord, is this really necessary? Even in the study of the Witch's apartment, Constantine still did not take off his helmet, As long as the Praetorian Guard reaches a certain size, there will be no civilization that can compete with it in the galaxy. Is it really necessary to care about a general of the United States who has no command right now?

Maybe you can defeat ten thousand with one, but don't you know how much the Immortal City has paid to cultivate you? Salomon asked back. He took off his suit, and Constantine carefully put it on the cloakroom after taking it. There was surprise in Dinah's eyes. She didn't expect the Janissaries to take away her job. The time gem, the silver key, countless precious alchemy materials, the forbidden science involved in the biological laboratory, plus a specific genome that has been modified for you and contains all the genes of the Byzantine emperor. All of these together give you the physical strength to resist magic and be unparalleled in the world. Salomon sat back on the chair in the study. The price is too high, and it will take some time to create the next Praetorian Guard.

But it's worth it, Constantine said.

We need mortal soldiers, Constantine. We can't hand over all wars to Superman. This is a cause for all mankind. We need the power of all people. The mystic waved his hand, Don't underestimate mortals. General Hale's role is much bigger than you imagine. She is not only recruiting retired soldiers and placing personnel in the US Department of Defense. She can gather professionally trained officers and soldiers and build a combat system from scratch with new equipment. This is what we lack, that is, the organizational form of the mortal army.

Salomon took the hot tea from Dinah.

Your name comes from Constantine, the first monarch of Byzantium. It is Constantinopolis in Latin and Κωνσταντινοπολι in Greek. This is the name I specially chose for you. This name not only represents your bloodline, but also represents your duty. Go learn, Augustus, your body has been exercised, but your soul has not yet. Teaching machines cannot teach you all knowledge. You need to continue learning and fighting.

I have to do security reconnaissance work first, said the Imperial Guard.

Dinah gave him a savage look. The Sisterhood has the power to keep the Sovereign safe, she said, and we will do so with our lives.

Just a guarantee is not enough. Your lives cannot be compared with the risk of the monarch being injured. Constantine's voice became a little dull when it passed through the loudspeaker, but he was still not inferior in making people angry. Salomon even felt that he had a little demeanor of his youth (meaning when he was underage). He asked Dinah, Can you guarantee everything will be safe?

Dinah knew she couldn't refute, but as Salomon's life assistant, she still had a say.

The current Praetorians are short-handed, and the opinions of the sisterhood are still the main ones on security issues. Constantine didn't insist too much. After debating for a few words, he chose to agree with Dinah's statement, and took advantage of the opportunity to join the security team of the sisterhood to perform joint inspection tasks. The mystic discovered that this was Constantine's purpose. He first made a proposal that the Sisterhood could not accept, and then made a compromise to put forward his own real ideas. He learned the Sisterhood's combat methods in an unobtrusive way and detected loopholes in the Sisterhood's security regulations.

The Praetorian Guards are the template of the perfect human being he made. It is not surprising that Constantine has such wisdom, but Constantine's control over other people's characters gives Salomon some evaluation materials for his ability to handle government affairs and coordinate personnel in the future. Constantine was the first Imperial Guard, and Salomon had high hopes for him. Constantine's mission was far more than ensuring his safety. Salomon opened up his collection of spellbooks to Constantine, a generosity unmatched by even Kama Taj's fellow mystics.
