Steve and Diana were secretly arranged by Sir Patrick to enter Westminster Abbey, which can be said to be one of the symbols of Britain. After its completion, it hosted major ceremonies such as king's coronation, royal wedding, and state funeral. Successive monarchs and some great men are buried in Westminster Abbey. It can be said that Westminster Abbey is a stone history book of the British royal family. Diana even came to visit when she first came to London.
Sir Patrick handed them over to an Anglican priest and left without stopping.
Afterwards, the Anglican priest took Diana and the two of them into Westminster Abbey. During this period, the priest, like Sir Patrick, remained silent and had no communication with them throughout the process.
Such a weird atmosphere makes Diana, a warrior, a little uncomfortable. She is a warrior, not an agent or a spy. She doesn't like this mysterious and secretive style of acting. So on the way, Diana tried to communicate with the priest several times, but was stopped by Steve.
Steve is a spy himself and is quite familiar with secret work. He knows that since the headquarters will go to great lengths to transfer them back from the front line and then secretly bring them here, there must be extremely confidential tasks. A task of this level, The confidentiality will naturally be very strict. Instead of asking questions here, it is better to just let nature take its course. When they should know, they will naturally know.
Westminster Abbey is so big that Diana and the others still didn't reach their destination after walking for ten minutes.
Finally, Diana couldn't help it anymore and whispered to Steve: "Steve, what on earth do they want us to do?"
Steve looked forward a little awkwardly and found that the pastor who was leading the way had not noticed them. Then he whispered to Diana: "Hey, Diana, can't you wait to talk? This is very inappropriate. polite."
Steve is also a little helpless about Diana's character. Even though Diana looks mature, intellectual, and charming now, her personality is actually quite simple, even a little childish. Normally, Steve likes Diana's character very much. After all, in this troubled world, few people can maintain their original innocence.
But sometimes, he had an extremely headache. For example, Diana's values are very different from theirs. Steve is a spy, so he cannot be a great and upright person. As secret workers, their daily lives consist of interest exchange, lies, and betrayal. Simply put, everything he does is for the benefit of the country, and personal concepts of good and evil are irrelevant.
But Diana was different. She always adhered to the purest view of good and evil.
She will not do anything that goes against her dignity as a warrior just because she wants to fight the enemy, nor will she ignore the most basic concepts of good and evil because of her own interests.
Such people are extremely rare on the battlefield.
Steve has always believed that both sides of the war are beasts, and they want nothing but victory. But Diana always believed that warriors are warriors. They can go to the battlefield for honor, but they must not abandon the dignity and principles of a warrior for the sake of victory.
In short, they have been working together for almost three months. Although the cooperation is generally smooth, there are constant conflicts in many aspects. This is not a grudge between individuals, but a collision of two values.
But despite this, Steve still liked this girl from the bottom of his heart and admired her frankness and innocence. Because there are very few people like her in this world.
"Okay... I just hope we can complete this damn mission quickly. We need to return to the battlefield quickly. I can feel that we are getting closer to Ares. Maybe as long as we catch that Luden Daphne can find Ares!"
The reason why Diana left her hometown, Paradise Island, was to hunt down the last god of Olympus, Ares, the God of War! Diana always believed that it was precisely because of Ares, the god of war, that this unprecedented war broke out. As long as he is captured or killed, the world that has been dragged into the quagmire of war will definitely be saved.
"Okay, okay, we'll get back as soon as we can, just be patient, Diana."
Steve said a little perfunctorily. Although it was Steve who brought Diana out from Paradise Island and he had seen the magic on that island, he still had doubts about the so-called Ares, the God of War, and he did not believe that it was the God of War Ares that caused this war. break out.
This is obviously all the Germans' fault! Ares, the god of war, is obviously a Greek...
However, since Paradise Island and Diana are so insistent, he doesn't seem to have to correct this. After all, they regard the German guy as Ares, the god of war. There is nothing wrong with it. The enemy of the enemy is a friend.
Although Steve is an American, he is still very skilled in dealing with the British.
While talking here, the destination has arrived.
They came to the Catholic Benedictine monastery on the south side of the church. It was a square courtyard surrounded by open arcades and many ancillary buildings around the arcades. In addition, there is a treasury hall and an underground chapel on the southeast side of the monastery courtyard. Their purpose is the underground chapel.
This is a rectangular hall, now a temple museum, which displays statues of kings, queens and nobles placed in open coffins for people to pay homage to during funerals.
When they arrived, they found someone already waiting in the chapel of the chapel.
There were four people in total, three men and one woman. Among the three men, there was an old man with white beard and hair, a middle-aged man with a big beard who looked like Indian Asan, and a well-dressed gentleman. The last woman was the most conspicuous, even though she was wearing all the clothes. She was wearing a widow's outfit, and even her face was covered by black veil, but these still couldn't block her amazing charm.
But at this time, Steve no longer had the mind to care about the woman. He just stared at the old gentleman with white hair and beard, his face full of disbelief.
"This is impossible...this...impossible, how could it be possible?"
Steve's gaffe quickly attracted the attention of others, but interestingly, these people all showed friendly smiles when they saw Steve, as if they saw an acquaintance.
This is also true.
After seeing Steve, the well-dressed middle-aged gentleman immediately smiled and said: "Captain Nemo, you lost. Our wonder boy didn't draw his gun as soon as he came in! You owe me twenty pounds now."
The Indian Asan, known as Captain Nemo, did not pay attention to the gentleman's teasing, but greeted Steve politely.
"We meet again, Wonder Boy."
Although in this era, the West generally looks down on Indians, thinking that they are ignorant and backward. But the Captain Nemo in front of me is different. This man looks old-fashioned, polite and arrogant, very much like an English gentleman. His firm and calm eyes seem to reflect his profound thoughts. His upright standing posture makes him 1.7 meters tall. He looked extremely tall and oppressive. Even if he greeted Steve very kindly, he still couldn't hide the force that came to him.
Steve seemed much more rude. He did not look at Nemo, but still stared closely at the old gentleman.
