In the spring of 2014, under Lu Xiao's dedicated research, the rune level in the system evaluation finally passed the E-level mark and officially reached D-level.
After several years of experience in the Assassin's Creed world, Lu Xiao already has a relatively deep understanding of the system's skill level evaluation.
The f-level is just a first glimpse, and cannot even be used in actual combat. The e-level is the real entry level for a skill.
Starting from level D, the skills Lu Xiao has learned can begin to exert their power. Correspondingly, the progress of skills after reaching level D will also slow down significantly.
Gu Yi didn't have much to say about Lu Xiao's specialization in rune magic. He would only point out the most critical part of the problem he faced when his study and research reached an impasse.
Even if Ancient One, who has lived for thousands of years, is not proficient in all schools of spells, he at least has some knowledge of runes. After all, this is the spell school that Asgardian druids are best at.
According to the ancient records of Kama Taj, the rise of the Ancient One and Kama Taj has always made Odin a little unhappy.
The nine planets in the World Tree system have always been regarded as forbidden by Odin. As the earth's mystics grow, Asgard's right to speak and rule over the earth gradually declines.
Odin, who has entered the stage of self-cultivation, no longer has the decisiveness to kill before.
Considering that Midgard is also part of the Nine Realms, as long as humans on Earth do not blatantly declare their independence from Asgard's jurisdiction, Odin will turn a blind eye to the development of Earth due to the existence of the powerful Supreme Mage Ancient One.
Just close one eye.
Although his attitude is made, as a talented and strategic ruler, Odin will eventually be dissatisfied with the independence of the earth from Asgard. For many years, he has regarded the Ancient One and the mystics as imaginary enemies.
This is also the reason why the ancient pair mentioned to Thor before that he hoped Odin would be less needlessly hostile to the earth.
As the saying goes, only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you win every battle. Just in case, Gu Yi began to study Asgard's rune spells hundreds of years ago. Those reading notes that Lu Xiao saw when flipping through the books were from Gu Yi.
left.
After the Dark Elf War, peace and tranquility were restored in the Nine Realms.
Dormammu's attempt to steal the Reality Stone failed, and he temporarily put away his claws. Casillas, who was suspected of taking refuge in Dormammu, was never heard from again.
When Lu Xiao was basically familiar with the characteristics of the two Uru Hidden Blades, the system, which had not actively spoken for a long time, suddenly released a new side mission.
"Detection of the plot of Captain America 2 is about to begin, and the side mission is released: The Shield and the Snake."
"Mission requirement: eliminate the threats brought to the world by SHIELD and HYDRA."
"Reward: One B-level lottery in this world, 2 free skill points."
Lu Xiao, who was establishing a spiritual connection with the Uru Hidden Blade, suddenly opened his eyes: "Is it really here?"
As time passed in 2014, the powerful sixth sense derived from the Isu bloodline reminded Lu Xiao that something should happen recently.
Before entering the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Lu Xiao briefly browsed the plot of Captain America 2.
To put it simply, S.H.I.E.L.D., as the guardian of the Earth, was parasitized by Hydra, a famous villain organization in the Marvel world, and gradually began to corrupt from within.
Moreover, this process of corruption is irreversible. Hydra's infiltration of S.H.I.E.L.D. began after the end of World War II and when S.H.I.E.L.D. was first established. The two sides were so entangled that it was difficult to separate them.
Now that the side mission has been released, Lu Xiao naturally plans to complete it in order to get rewards and improve his personal strength.
Lu Xiao, who has left the novice stage of the mystic, obtained the permission of Ancient One after the Dark Elf War. He can act according to his own wishes. The premise is that he follows the secret rules of the mystic and tries not to let ordinary people find out.
own identity.
Hiding his identity is not a problem for Lu Xiao, an assassin. Even if he doesn't use breath blocking, he has many ways to quietly move among the crowd.
The tri-curved wing of SHIELD's headquarters is located in Washington, DC, the capital of the United States.
Since the system mentioned that the plot of Captain America 2 is about to begin, it means that the preparations for the Insight Project promoted by Nick Fury, Director of SHIELD, have come to an end and are about to be officially launched.
The so-called Insight Project is a trump card prepared by Nick Fury in order to deal with the frequent occurrence of special cases on the earth.
Although the Battle of New York was won through the efforts of the original Avengers, the situation facing the Earth is still grim.
The general public on earth has confirmed the existence of aliens for the first time, and the related incidents alone have kept SHIELD busy.
The defeat of the Chitauri left a lot of alien black technology weapons in New York, most of which were recovered by S.H.I.E.L.D., and many of them flowed into the black market. The plot of Spider-Man: Homecoming is related to this [Pencil Novel]

But the chaos shown in Spider-Man's plot is just the tip of the iceberg. Chitauri weapons have been used to commit crimes all over the world, and the number of super villains with special abilities has also increased year by year.
Nick Fury is a pragmatic person. Although he has a firm belief in protecting the earth, his unscrupulous ruthlessness in order to achieve his goals makes many of his own people in SHIELD fear him.
In order to efficiently control and solve high-risk malignant cases occurring around the world, Fury launched a project called the Insight Project.
The content of the project is highly confidential, and even Captain Steve Rogers, a World War II hero and American flag-bearer, knows nothing about it.
"The beginning of Captain America 2..."
Lu Xiao touched his chin and recalled: "It seems to have happened near the Lincoln Memorial in Washington DC, the capital, right?"
"Then go to Washington, D.C. first and make some preparations before Hydra launches its plan."
…
With the help of the portal opened by the Supreme Mage Ancient One, Lu Xiao easily arrived in an uninhabited grove on the outskirts of Washington, DC.
Washington, D.C., is the capital of the United States. Although its popularity is not as high as that of extremely economically developed cities such as New York and Los Angeles, as the political center of the United States, the residents of Washington, D.C., with a population of only 700,000, are either rich or expensive.
SHIELD's headquarters is so famous that Lu Xiao can easily find the building with the help of the city's navigation map without even asking passers-by for its location.
The Tri-Wing Building of SHIELD Headquarters is located near Theodore Roosevelt Island in the middle of the Potomac River, not far from the famous Lincoln Memorial and directly across from the island is the John F. Kennedy Performing Arts Center.
Before starting the operation, Lu Xiao followed the usual practice, turned on the aura blocker and went to the top of the Washington Monument spire, using the eyes of the eagle to overlook the various landmarks in the city.
This is not only to make it easier to familiarize yourself with the terrain when moving, but also to keep in mind the terrain characteristics of various major areas in Washington, D.C., so that you can use teleportation to travel around the city at will when necessary.
You must have an impression of the destination before using Karma Taj's teleportation technique. Imagination will only cause the teleportation gate to open the wrong channel. If you are not careful, you may even be thrown into the turbulence of space.
Compared with bustling cities such as New York and London, the pace of life in Washington, D.C., is relatively slow. Standing on the top of the monument, Lu Xiao could see many morning joggers jogging along the riverside full of cherry blossoms.
Lu Xiao looked at the blooming cherry blossoms and the pedestrians leisurely admiring the flowers and smiled mischievously: "Bald Eagle-san, Sakoula from my hometown has opened."
