This request...
It's a little too simple.
Baker looked at Ancient One: "Supreme Mage, you have been playing chess since I was sixteen years old, just for a promise from me?"
Gu Yi said calmly: "Yes."
Baker shook his head: "I don't quite believe it."
Unless Ancient One is a true Holy Mother, otherwise, this request is too majestic and upright.
Ancient One said: "Mr. Morton, do you know the source of my energy?"
Beck frowned.
There are two sources of energy for the Ancient One. One is from the Book of Weishan Emperor, which records all the white magic in the universe, and the other is from Dormammu in the dark dimension.
The Book of Emperor Weishan gave the Ancient One great power, while the dark power of Dormammu protected the Ancient One from the passage of time.
Tell a joke.
It has to be said that it is ironic that the powerful person who controls the time stone cannot be immune to the invading power of time loaded on her body.
Emperor Weishan is not a person, but a "Trinity" composed of three ancient gods on earth, namely Agamotto, Osutu and Hogs.
so……
The energy source of the Ancient One comes from Emperor Weishan.
if it is like this……
Baker looked at Ancient One and thought about what Ancient One said just now: "The earth is eternal, and you will be eternal too."
Ancient One said: "Yes."
Baker suddenly realized that Ancient One really wanted the earth to not be destroyed or exploded. This was not because Ancient One had the heart of the Holy Mother, but because the earth was there, and Ancient One's power was there.
Emperor Weishan is the ancient god of the earth.
Although he has passed away now, Emperor Weishan was born with the earth. Naturally, the power of Emperor Weishan is the power of the earth. If the earth cracks, the power of Emperor Weishan will disappear. Similarly, Ancient One will also lose himself. the power of.
This would explain why Gu Yi asked Baker so much, and it could also explain why Gu Yi had been silently guarding the earth.
One sentence.
When the Ancient One protects the earth from the invasion of dimensions and other worlds, she is protecting herself.
Think about it.
Baker smiled involuntarily: "Mage Supreme, I am not as evil as you think. At least, I have never wanted to destroy this planet."
Why destroy the earth?
Baker felt that he was not a villain. At least, under normal circumstances, Baker would not suddenly think of destroying the earth for no reason.
He is an assassin.
Not a terrorist.
Although Baker has never regarded the earth here as his real hometown, compared with the outside planets, the earth here obviously still has some weight.
Gu Dao said thank you.
Baker waved his hand, and then looked at Gu Yi: "So, apart from this matter, there is nothing else hidden from me, right? Repeatedly but never again."
Ancient Yi shook his head: "I have lost the ability to observe your future. In fact, as long as you are on earth for one day, I will lose the ability to observe your future."
Beck smiled.
This is the best, because it is unknown, so the future is full of expectations.
Gu Yi is a strong man, and the characteristic of a strong man is that he will not lie. In other words, a strong man does not bother to lie. Therefore, Baker still believes in Gu Yi on this point.
Baker drank the wine in the glass, stood up, said goodbye to Gu Yi, and then left the Snowy Mountains.
Three days later.
After completing all the procedures, Sierra followed Baker back to Apartment No. 820.
A bedroom across the hallway from the master bedroom on the third floor.
open the door.
Baker looked at Sierra, who was looking up and down in the room, which was full of girly-style layouts, and leaned against the door with his arms folded: "Do you like this room?"
Sierra, who had her back turned to Baker, nodded, then turned to look at Baker: "Can I ask you something?"
"Of course," Baker said.
Sierra asked: "When I was in the hospital, I told you why I wanted to kill someone, but you haven't told me why you killed your mother."
"I told you she didn't respect me," Baker said.
Sierra tilted her head: "Be specific."
Baker's face was expressionless: "I've moved on and stopped falling in love."
Sera nodded: "Okay, that is indeed not respecting you enough."
"..."
Baker originally planned to tell Sera the truth, but after thinking about it, it was unnecessary. This reason was at least a little softer than the truth.
"Then why did you abandon me."
"Because I didn't know you existed from the beginning."
"You are not human."
"Neither are you."
"..."
Barbara, Andy and Irene who were outside the door were silent again as they listened to the conversation between the father and daughter in the room.
These are some magical conversations.
Sierra shrugged and looked at Baker: "No wonder I always feel like I'm out of place with other kids. I like you, but can I not call you father?"
Baker said calmly: "Then what do you want to be called?"
"Beck, is that okay?"
"OK."
Names are meant for people to call each other. Baker is not very interested in what kind of titles. He and Barbara sometimes call each other mom and dad in bed.
Baker is no old fuddy-duddy.
only……
Baker said to Lolicella, who was wearing a sky blue skirt and supporting her smooth blond hair: "The reason why you are incompatible with people outside is not because of your race, but because you are stupid."
Sierra frowned: "I'm not stupid."
Baker nodded: "Yes, you are not stupid, you just don't have enough knowledge and you look a bit stupid."
Sierra pouted a little unhappy: "Why am I stupid."
"A truly smart person will not leave any evidence behind when he kills someone. As for you, you are either stupid or stupid. You choose one yourself."
Sierra opened her mouth and looked at Baker after a while: "Then remember the three things you said before."
"not enough."
"not enough?"
"There are three steps to killing. First, want to kill. Second, formulate an action. Third, implement the plan. What supports the second and third steps is your own knowledge reserve. What do you think of your knowledge reserve? If I give you a pen, can you kill someone silently?"
"……cannot."
"That's just not enough," Baker said.
Sierra raised her head: "What should we do?"
"Simple!"
With a flick of his right hand, Baker took out the introduction to Trinity College in Manhattan, New York, and the information on the various interest training classes held in the past two days and handed them to Sierra: "Remember the fourth thing, study hard and make progress every day."
Sierra looked at the nearly 60 centimeters of various materials piled up on the desk and her mouth widened: "There are so many, I am..."
Baker interrupted directly: "So you left evidence."
Serra said: "Don't you leave any evidence after learning this?"
"If you were smart, you wouldn't."
"I am very smart."
"I'll see."
"..."
There are thousands of bells of millet in the book, there is a house of gold in the book, and there are horses in clusters in the book...
It is impossible not to read.
Moreover, Sierra is only nine years old now. If she does not study, people from the child protection agency will come to investigate the next day.
And reading can be wise.
Regardless of the popularity of federal interest education nowadays, it is just a so-called means to control people's intelligence.
Look at Alexis downstairs.
The study arrangements for that day were not fully arranged. Although it was not like having to make up classes in the evening, I usually studied in various ways during various holidays.
Let’s take a look at the children of Wall Street. The lower they go, the more they like interest education, because interest education does not cost money. The higher they go, the more they like quality education. Let alone money, a class of 100,000 yuan is more popular on Wall Street. Not without.
Just say that when Baker was in school, if the federation really promoted interest education, the library of New York University would not be overcrowded at any time.
but……
Frankly speaking, Beck felt that it was irresponsible to others to let Sierra, who had an antisocial personality, go to school, so Beck could only come up with this solution.
Baker patted the thick information on the desk and looked at Sierra: "I'm optimistic about you."
Sierra looked at Baker: "These can't stop me."
"I'll take you to school tomorrow." Baker smiled and left this sentence before turning around and leaving.
"Wait, Beck!"
"...Is there anything else?"
Sierra said to Baker who turned around: "Did you pick me back because I woke up?"
Baker smiled and said, "Is it important?"
Sierra nodded her little head: "It's important."
Baker's expression was calm: "You are my daughter. Originally, I wanted to give you a peaceful and stable life."
Sierra shrugged: "I hate peace."
Baker smiled: "Is there anything else?"
Sera nodded: "What is awakening?"
"Want to know?"
"Um."
Baker said toward the door: "Andy."
Not long after.
Andy walked in, and Baker took out the angel crystal. In an instant, the light on the angel crystal once again intersected with the light gushing from Sierra's body.
Baker handed the angel crystal to Sera: "Take it."
Sera took it, and the light on the angel crystal became more and more brilliant. Behind Sera, a pair of illusory little wings as white as snow and as jade emerged.
"Connecting to the Heavenly Database."
"Verifying."
"Verification successful."
"Welcome, Angel Queen Angel."
"Please hold the Blade of Flowing Fire tightly to expand the database."
"...expansion failed!"
"..."
Following several mechanical sounds from outside the sky, and after the last sentence [deployment failed] appeared, with a hiss, the light of the angel crystal dimmed instantly, and the illusory little wings behind Sera also disappeared.
Sera blinked as she looked at the dimming angel crystal.
Baker looked at Andy.
Does this thing have a secondary lock?
It is indeed high-tech.
Andy frowned: "The Blade of Flowing Fire is Her Majesty's personal weapon, but this weapon should have been destroyed with the destruction of the Kingdom of Heaven."
Baker said: "In other words, the angel crystal cannot be opened at all?"
Andy nodded confusedly.
She only knew that the Angel Crystal needed the genetic code of the Queen of Angels to open it, but she really didn't know what else the Fire Blade would need.
But think about it.
If the Angel King had also set a password back then, how could he have been easily usurped by the Angel Queen?
Andy looked at Baker: "Can you imitate it?"
Baker chuckled: "This thing can recognize the genetic code. Do you think it won't be able to recognize the genuine Flowing Fire Blade?"
Andy said: "It doesn't hurt to try."
Baker was about to refuse, thought for a moment, and then said to Andy: "That's right, it doesn't hurt to try."
He thought about the need to summon Xin Zhao's token three-clawed spear.
Just right.
Baker had originally planned to go to the Eastern Kingdom during his break and find a weapons master to help him build a three-claw spear. Anyway, one weapon had to be made and two weapons had to be made. In this case, there was no harm in making them together.
Anyway, it won’t delay anything.
Half an hour later.
Baker got the drawing of the Flowing Fire Blade hand-drawn by Andy and took a look at it. Baker looked at Andy and said, "This painting is very unique."
Andy said: "After all these years, we have to learn something."
Baker nodded: "That's true."
Erin and Barbara also came over to look at Andy's drawing of the Fire Blade.
"Huh."
"what?"
Baker glanced at Irene who was speaking out and said, "How can you draw so well?"
Erin shook her head. She went to community college. Among the three siblings in her family, her academic qualifications were the least valuable. She was not as good as Nova in reading, and she was not as good as Baker in killing.
Just like the rankings in the family, the three siblings were second, but they ended up being second everywhere. Irene thought she should change her name to Second Lin!
Erin shook her head and said, "No, I just feel a little familiar."
"look familiar?"
"Um."
Baker raised his eyebrows and looked at Erin: "You've seen this thing before."
Erin frowned, touched her chin and quickly flipped through her memory database. After a while, Erin's eyes lit up.
"Yes!"
"What's up?"
Eileen said: "I seem to have seen this sword in the warehouse of the FBI Art Crime Team. It was seized in November last year. However, the sword was eventually identified as a replica of the Sword in the Stone and is worthless. of."
"Sword in the Stone?"
"Um."
Baker naturally knows about the Sword in the Stone, King Arthur's sword, the legendary weapon in London.
It is said that the first time the Sword in the Stone appeared in a church was on Christmas Eve. Just as people were finishing their confessions, they looked up and saw a sword stuck in a square stone.
church?
Angel?
Sword in the Stone?
Blade of Flowing Fire?
Baker's thoughts were spinning rapidly and he looked at Andy: "Have you never experienced the era of King Arthur?"
Andy shook his head, then thought for a while and said: "At that time, I was participating in the Civil War in the East Kingdom. After the East Kingdom became stable, King Arthur had already died."
"……All right."
Baker listened to Andy's explanation, was silent for a while and nodded, and then said: "I remember that when the Sword in the Stone first came, there was a line of words on the stone."
Whoever can draw this sword from the stone platform and be born in England will be the king of all England.
This is recorded in history.
but……
History is written by people, naturally, just like the three versions of the history of the Kingdom of Heaven that Baker heard, they are all written with the eyes of the victor.
What if the words in this line were changed?
Anyone who can pull out the sword from the stone platform and is a descendant of my heavenly kingdom, she is the angel queen of the heavenly clan!
