Rumlow watched the souls of the barbarians moving around on the mountain. He and his team seemed a little idle.
Those souls are all ancestors of barbarians. They only have thin clothes covering their bodies, and they don't look very ferocious.
But Rumlow is still hesitant to communicate with ghosts.
After all, the existence of ghosts is scary enough.
It's somewhat difficult for him to communicate directly with ghosts.
These barbarian ancestors have long been aware of the existence of Rumlow's team. It would be a joke to say how enthusiastic these barbarians would be for these guys who spent a lot of time climbing the Holy Mountain.
Although the emotion of bravery is something worthy of recognition whenever it can be obtained.
But the barbarians, a group that has never been afraid, never lack courage, so they don't want to take the initiative to communicate with these guys.
"Rumlow, do you have any new discoveries over there?"
Nick Fury's voice came from Rumlow's headphones.
"Sorry, we are still observing, but we haven't seen anything."
For Rumlow, detailed investigation is not his strong point, and the tasks of the special operations team are mainly focused on combat missions.
If this mountain hadn't been so magical this time, their team, whose main business was fighting, wouldn't have been mobilized.
At this time, their combat expertise left them somewhat idle.
Although they are not without any investigative capabilities, their purpose of coming here in the first place was just to check out the locations.
He could only tell from the ghosts of those barbarians that they were very powerful warriors, no matter how many more there were, nothing could be seen.
"Then why don't you ask? Didn't you see a strong old guy before?"
Nick Fury can also understand Rumlow's concerns. Even if he is placed here, he thinks he will not be able to communicate with those ghosts smoothly.
After all, that is not the existence form of life, and getting over the threshold of such pressure is not something that can be done the moment you see it.
So Nick Fury wanted Rumlow to go to Bulcasso for information.
"Hey, guys over there, you seem a little troubled?"
A sudden voice came, and the owner of the voice was a barbarian soul wearing relatively more clothes.
Rumlow was startled by the sudden greeting from this soul, but he quickly calmed down.
"Um, what's your name?"
Rumlow suppressed the slight trembling in his arm and put his finger on the trigger of the gun. Although the muzzle of the gun was pointed toward the ground, he was able to shoot at the enemy in less than a second.
The strong translucent body of the soul made him give up the plan of fighting with bare hands. Apparently he believed that neither bare hands nor firearms would have any effect on the ghost.
"Just call me Vader. If I were still alive, I would definitely recommend you to buy some of my equipment."
"So you're a businessman? You don't look like one at all."
Rumlow removed his finger from the trigger and looked at the barbarian soul named Vader with some curiosity.
"I have also been an adventurer, but that is not to my liking. It suffers too much and gains too little.
Besides, you can’t expect every one of us to be a soldier. Someone has to sell the necessary equipment. Even though I lost all my goods when I died.”
This ghost named Vader was more talkative than Rumlow imagined. Perhaps because he was just a businessman, he did not dismiss Rumlow's team like the soldiers.
Perhaps this familiar ghost was much kinder than expected, and Rumlow's team gradually relaxed.
"You don't have to worry so much. They are all glorious warriors and they don't bother to attack you. The premise is that you don't provoke."
Vader opened his hands and shrugged, not caring at all about the impact his words had on Rumlow and the others. In other words, even after becoming a businessman, Vader was still the same barbarian who seemed reckless in everything.
Rumlow heard this with some disdain. For him who had never seen the power of barbarians, Vader's words would only feel like bragging.
Among the combatants of SHIELD, Crossbones Rumlow is definitely one of the top ones.
If these savages had not appeared before him in the form of ghosts, he would not have been so cautious.
"Today is the barbarian festival, but you have missed the battle performance of our great king. What a pity."
Vader said to Rumlow, not paying attention to Rumlow's arrogant mood.
There are many savages who are invincible, and this is not a rare thing.
After all, even Bulcaisel had a time when he was swollen. He rushed into the mad king's palace alone, and despite his injuries, smashed the bones of the Skeleton King on the throne.
How can a soldier be too timid to take action?
"The weapon in your hand looks a bit similar to a crossbow. Is it something similar?"
Vida was somewhat curious about the novel products.
"This thing is not comparable to crossbows. It seems that your civilization is still stuck in the era of cold weapons?"
Rumlow's awe of these ghosts began to wane.
After all, for him, the creation of technology makes him look down on those guys who wield big swords to fight with the enemy.
"Ha! It seems you are very confident in this weapon? Do you want to try shooting at the target?"
Vader likes guys who like their own weapons, because after they see better equipment, they will exude a greedy enthusiasm for those equipment.
"It's a pity that I'm already dead, otherwise you would definitely become my most loyal customer!"
Vader almost laughed out loud.
In his perception, there was no energy at all on this dark tube.
So this weapon might be able to defeat a resurrected skeleton?
In the shelter, this thing may be a little better than those novice standard weapons, but I'm afraid it's not good enough.
At least, standard crossbows have no ammunition restrictions.
"Forget it, I have no interest in target shooting."
Rumlow pretended not to care, Nick Fury was directing him to perform in his headphones.
At present, it seems that these ghosts do not have any malicious intent, so conducting a certain degree of testing within the range is the best way.
Although neither Nick Fury nor Rumlow himself knew why he was able to climb this mountain, this did not prevent them from testing it.
The only difference is that Nick Fury is considering the impact of barbarians on world security, while Rumlow is exploring a possibility for Hydra, a possibility of cross-domain space.
"Forget it, I don't have any products for you to choose anyway. But I sincerely tell you, if your weapons are just this kind of thing, then don't conflict with those guys.
If they want to resolve conflicts with you in barbaric ways, I'm afraid this thing won't be able to help you."
Vader talked to Rumlow with a smile on his face, but there was something about watching a good show in his smile.
