Chapter 1846 EP1847. Talos

After contacting Nick Fury, there was no extra nonsense.

Holding up the phone, pointing the camera at the screen suspended in mid-air, while playing the short video recorded by Betty Ross from the beginning, Shi Xiaolei asked straight to the point: "Fury, do you have anything to say?"

"..." Quietly watching the video being played, until General Ross in the screen showed the prototype of a Skrull, Nick Fury on the other end of the phone smiled wryly and shook his head, and opened his mouth to give a response : "Well, it seems that we can't hide it. Where are you, let's meet."

"As you can see, this is the top floor of the Stark Tower." While answering, Shi Xiaolei scanned the surroundings with the camera.

"OK, I see, give me half an hour."

I wanted to say, 'I can open a portal to pick you up', but suddenly it occurred to me that the other party might not be in the SHIELD headquarters, but in a secret base whose location cannot be revealed...

Swallowing back the words that came to his lips, Shi Xiaolei smiled faintly: "Okay, half an hour, we'll wait for you here."

"See you later."

"See you later."

After finishing the call, putting the phone back into his pocket, and looking at Betty Ross again, Shi Xiaolei's expression was a little more relaxed than before.

"If there is no accident, the matter should not be as serious as we imagined before. I mean... If your father really passed away, and it was the responsibility of the Skrulls, from his standpoint, he would definitely not behave so plainly .”

"I hope it's the same as what you said." Hearing what Shi Xiaolei said, Betty Rose was also slightly relieved.

However, as the daughter of General Ross, she still felt a little uneasy at this time, and she didn't dare to relax completely.

Fortunately, Bruce Banner is also there, and there is also a fine wine provided by Stark, which can help appease Betty Ross' emotions.

Time passed by every minute and every second.

Chatting to pass the time while waiting for Nick Fury to arrive.

More than twenty minutes and less than half an hour later, the sound of an engine came from the sky, and a Quin-jet fighter appeared outside the top floor of the Stark Building.

The platform connected to the hall by the open-air walkway can only support Stark's steel armor at best. Switching to a Kun-style fighter whose weight is more than ten times that of the armor is simply not something it can bear.

The area is also slightly smaller, and it is difficult to stop a Quin-jet fighter.

Therefore, Nick Fury did not let the plane land, but kept it suspended while jumping directly from the rear hatch to the platform.

Seeing the scene of Nick Fury's arrival through the glass, the four people waiting in the room stood up from the sofa.

at this time.

"Sir." Ultron's voice sounded: "Something is wrong. According to my scan and comparison with the records in the database, the one who is coming now does not seem to match exactly."

Unexpectedly, Ultron would make a sound at this time, Stark was somewhat surprised.

And after hearing what Ultron said...

Not only Stark, Shi Xiaolei also showed surprise eyes.

Looking at each other, Shi Xiaolei nodded slightly, and reminded Bruce Banner and Betty Ross who were still confused: "Be vigilant, this guy may not be Fury."

"Huh? Oh, okay."

After the voice fell, Nick Fury had already passed through the automatic door and came into the room.

"Am I not late? Good afternoon, gentlemen, and Ms. Ross."

Whether it is the body shape or appearance, or the tone and demeanor when greeting, they all appear very natural, without any flaws.

However, with Ao Chuang's reminder just now, everyone kept their eyes open and was not fooled by the person in front of them.

Taking a step forward, Shi Xiaolei took the initiative to take over the conversation: "A few minutes earlier than the agreed time, you came on time. Sit down and chat, Fury... No, maybe I should call you Talos?"

Since accepting Carol Danforth's suggestion and temporarily settling on the earth, the group of Skrulls headed by Talos has formed a cooperative relationship with Nick Fury.

To put it simply, it is to use the special abilities of his own family to provide support for Nick Fury, complete some tasks and tasks assigned by him, in exchange for the care of Nick Fury and S.H.I.E.L.D.

Sometimes he will take on the appearance of other people, extorting the information he needs for Nick Fury.

Sometimes, they will become certain key figures, such as witnesses, to help stage a scene where the golden cicada escapes its shell or hides the old warehouse.

If some important person suddenly disappears or dies, the Skrull will take his appearance and stand up for a while to help stabilize the situation and ease the chaos until the storm subsides.

Although they are not very good at fighting, and their role in frontal battles is not even as good as that of a low-level agent, but with their own racial abilities, the Skrulls have indeed solved many problems for Nick Fury. A lot of contributions.

Especially Talos as the leader.

On the one hand, it is because Nick Fury met him when he was a low-level agent, and together helped Carol Danvers find himself, and finally won the victory against the Kree. On the other hand, it is also because the life and death of the Skrulls are in the hands of Nick Fury. As the leader, Talos must consider his tribe and family, and dare not play tricks with Nick Fury, let alone betrayal. Covenant... In short, from the standpoint of Nick Fury, Talos is a useful and trustworthy helper.

Therefore, Nick Fury arranged a very special task for Talos - when he needed it, Talos would change into his appearance and do something instead of him.

A substitute, or the existence of a shadow warrior, can only be used when no one knows about it. If everyone knows it's fake, it won't work.

In order to better play the role of the Skrulls and to ensure their safety, Nick Fury did not disclose any information to others at all. In the entire S.H.I.E.L.D., he is the only one who knows the existence of the Skrulls~lightnovelpub.net~ Yes, even Coulson and others who Nick Fury trusts the most have never heard of them News about the Skrulls.

Talos has done more than once to appear in front of Coulson and others in the image of Nick Fury and give orders to them instead of Nick Fury.

No one has ever been able to see the flaw, let alone call out his real name directly to his face. From the standpoint of Talos, he has long been used to the matter of 'pretending to be Nick Fury and not being seen through'.

And now...

Shi Xiaolei actually called out Talos' real name in one gulp.

"..." After a moment of silence without saying a word, 'Nick Fury' smiled wryly and shook his head: "Although I already guessed that this scene might happen on the way here, but at this moment, I really listen to you Saying my name, I'm still kind of... well, it's so weird, I don't know how to describe it."

"I just tried to shout." Shi Xiaolei shrugged, smiled and stretched out his right hand: "Nice to meet you, Talos."

"Me too." After shaking hands with Shi Xiaolei, Talos returned to his original appearance.
