Chapter 1320 The Warning from the Goddess of Wisdom (Second Update)
Information isolation in outer space is a long-term strategy. Stephanie Malik's so-called plan is just to increase the priority of some of the targets and then use two more missiles. However, Stephanie Malik does not directly own the freighter.
Even if she passed administrative orders and other means that might leak secrets, she would not be able to get involved in military operations. She claimed that it would be impossible to scuttle the ship because the decision-making power was in the hands of Victoria Hand.
However, the Emperor did not deny the possibility of scuttling the ship as mentioned by Stephanie Malick. After all, the former S.H.I.E.L.D. executive also proposed the same plan. Just click on the file logo on the data pad and use the genetic key to unlock it.
You can see the relevant documents and discussions. After many years of influence and education from Hydra, even Victoria Hand, an unswervingly loyal S.H.I.E.L.D. agent, has no more talent and ideas in this area than Hydra.
Where to go.
Although she is slightly inferior in playing conspiracy, she is equally ruthless. Compared with Hydra agents, Victoria Hand's advantage is that she abandons the selfishness of Hydra and dares to make choices. Like a spider crouching in a spider's web
The spider in the center, the plan drawn up by Victoria Hand, is to have hundreds of criss-crossing spider threads, summarizing any situation that arises on the emperor's data pad. Therefore, the emperor is not worried that Victoria Hand cannot solve this problem perfectly.
incident, he waited for the latter to bring him some information and clues that he did not understand.
At the same time, Victoria Hand also arranged the "jailbreak operation" of agent Maria Hill in accordance with the order, releasing her to the place where Nick Fury last appeared. She painstakingly weaved a long
, a chain of conspiracy that connects General Hale, Nick Fury, Maria Hill, and Agent Coulson. The end of the calculation is the Kree space station and the Hunting Cult lurking in the Corboy Belt.
After the meal, the emperor stayed at the orphanage for fifteen minutes before taking the car he came from to see his adoptive mother. It was impossible for him to let other members of the Malik family know the location of the Mount Athena Orphanage.
The driver who picked him up at JFK International Airport took him and Stephanie to a garage in Manhattan, so that all the Malik family's drivers and security guards could get off work early.
He and the Witch stored most of the cars here before moving out of New York, and then looked for opportunities to transport them to Oxford County. But until now, there are still a few cars that have not been able to be moved because he did not want to use the transportation power of the Eternal City.
It wasn't a good thing to do this and open the portal for several cars. Now he could only drive one of the cars to send himself and Stephanie to the Mount Athena Orphanage.
The layout of the apartment where Athena lives has not changed for many years. White marble walls and alabaster statues are combined with large-scale use of exquisite golden decorations, as well as solemn and serious classic paintings and reliefs everywhere, making this space elegant and tidy.
At the same time, it was full of the beauty of order. When the emperor saw Athena, she was sitting alone in front of the long dining table, with a glass of wine and two empty bottles in her hands. The cold anger on her face even made some
The complaining Stephanie Malik couldn't help but shut her mouth.
Although she had never met the emperor's adoptive mother and did not know who the woman in a pleated white dress was, the aura of the female war goddess was not something a mortal like her could bear. Her intuition told her that this woman was related to the emperor.
extraordinary.
The emperor thoughtfully asked Stephanie to wait in the car, while he closed the door of the apartment and planned to negotiate with Athena. The latter had already foreseen the emperor's intention, that's why she was so angry. The emperor did not intend to convince her with arguments.
Appropriate words that can express your thoughts are enough; there is no need to convince the other party.
When he first started learning ancient Greek debating, he knew that although this art was called eloquence and was a required course for politicians and thinkers, it looked dignified and elegant on the surface, full of elitist atmosphere, but in reality it was an exchange of concepts.
Techniques that focus on speech skills such as sophistry, logical fallacies, and hesitation are similar to those of market scoundrels. The real difficulty lies in the fact that debating skills require users to be quick-thinking and delicate in order to catch the loopholes in the opponent's speech logic.
Or use inaccurate words to refute and reverse deduction, which requires extremely high cultural literacy and intelligence. Without these, there is really no difference from a rogue in the market.
Athena is the winner of the highest achievement in debating among the Olympian gods. The two of them are equally accomplished in eloquence. He cannot tell the winner with Athena based on language alone. Not only can he talk endlessly,
Until everyone deviates from the topic and becomes restless, which is more likely to push Athena into a panic and hit people directly. He knows the temper and character of his adoptive mother. At best, she has great foresight, at worst, she is arrogant and stubborn. From then on.
From the beginning, Athena expected the emperor to act according to her ideas. However, the independent thought displayed by the emperor was stronger than she imagined. The ideals created by Kamathaj's education were also more ambitious than the petty family spirit of the old gods of Olympus.
Much. This contradiction could still be resolved when the emperor was still young, but as the footsteps of the end gradually became clear on the timeline, Athena became more and more anxious, and the ideological differences between the two became more and more serious.
This was an urgent problem. She wanted the emperor to come to her, but she would not speak directly because of her face. So she suddenly changed her attitude towards the witch because she knew that doing so would make her adopted son come to her in a short time.
Come on. The emperor also knew this, so he delayed it for a while after Quetzalcoatl awakened, until he estimated that Athena was impatient with waiting before he came to New York. Continuing to push and touch the adoptive mother's bottom line would only make things worse.
She threw a spear that traveled through the earth, cut through the atmosphere, and pierced the castle of the Royal City of Latvinia. Its accuracy and range were comparable to the most advanced intercontinental missiles in the world today.
"We have to solve it." The emperor pulled out a chair and sat next to the main seat, and declared his purpose in one mouth. Although the goddess of wisdom was tall and comparable to the witch, she also looked a bit petite in comparison. He didn't say much.
, because he knew that Athena had foreseen something, and both parties knew it well. "This is the end of the world for all of us."
"I saw fragments of the future in the prophecy, and there is a place for you on the throne." Athena sniffed, not directly saying the question, and had no intention of answering. "Although the death of the Supreme Mage is shocking, it represents
No matter what, mankind will not perish. The old era has passed, you are the new era, and you must become the Emperor of Humanity."
"I will do this, but this is because of the historical process rather than my personal ambition." The emperor frowned and said. He didn't mind letting Athena control the topic, he wanted to hear the other party's thoughts. "I will promote the historical process,
But I won’t have complete control. I won’t be bound by responsibilities for the rest of my life. If the human race always needs me, it proves that this race has no development potential.”
"I assure you that it is a waste of your talent. There is no crime more shameful than waste." The goddess of wisdom cast a stern look. She picked up the table knife to cut the shortbread, and the silver blade could be used at any time.
Slit the throat. "Without you, the human race cannot survive the next disaster. You must make up for the technological generation gap. You are capable."
"Yes, but not forever."
"No king in this world will give up his authority, and neither will you." Athena put down the wine glass, her eyes so sharp that she could slice the marble table into thin slices. "This sentence is considered a curse, but it can also be considered a curse.
Warning. You cannot give up your authority, not because you are greedy for pleasure but because you cannot do it. Because of responsibility, because of ideals, and because of betrayal, you will never be able to let go of the burden. Unless you choose the path I built for you, go and be me
The existence that I want you to become, to become a true king. You know that I am doing it for your own good, Salomon, I, you know my heart."
