"Compared to boring news reports, it's more interesting to watch some guys' passionate performances. Even Kingpin sent someone here, at least he came to give me money to establish a good relationship with me in an open and aboveboard manner, and no one would have a problem with money. However, I really didn't expect that someone would sneak into my territory? Did I not treat them well enough?"

Duva let out a sigh without blinking, but around Duva, several aliens that were originally as quiet as large puppies, seemed to have received a clear signal. They stood up in an instant, their bodies tensed, and quickly shuttled through the building.

Erica, who was hiding in the dark, was startled and her heartbeat quickened for a moment. This alone was enough to expose her position.

Because the ones she faced were never ordinary humans, but people who far surpassed ordinary people in all aspects and had several aliens as their minions.

Swish!

Several aliens moved quickly and silently throughout the process, but their coordination seemed to be natural and perfect.

Erica completely gave up her hope and faced the ruthless aliens. She was sure that she would die here if she was not careful. She immediately started to complain in her heart, thinking that she should not have gone to such a place to perform her mission.

A messenger alien came behind Erica and stabbed at her with its flexible tail. Obviously, as long as it hit the target, Erica would be skewered like a candied haws.

Bang bang bang!

Erica seemed to have eyes behind her head. She decisively pulled out her gun, turned around and shot quickly, accurately hitting the limbs of the two messenger aliens rushing in the front. At the same time, she carefully avoided the splashing blood and looked at the dents on the ground corroded by the blood with her eyelids twitching wildly.

"Don't get me wrong, I'm just following Kingpin's men and came all the way here!" Erica took less than a second and one round of fighting to confirm that if she continued to be stubborn, she would end up in a miserable state.

Watching the video to deduce and analyze is not the same as actual combat. This is just the weakest alien. If you encounter a big guy like the Hulk...

What kind of power does Duva himself, the man who can control these aliens, have?

"A clever reason is at least more reliable than making up a clumsy lie. So, do I have reason to believe that you are provoking me on behalf of the Hand? Or will you deny it and claim that the Hand you belong to knows nothing about me?" Duva clapped his hands.

"..."

Erica's face was heavy. Standing in front of Duva, she actually had the illusion that she was naked. "That's something for the Five Fingers to think about. Ninjas like me are only responsible for carrying out assassination missions. But I personally think that as long as they are not fools, they will not be your enemy."

"No, letting you appear in front of me has already shown the attitude of those five old immortals."

"As far as I know, the five of them should be discussing your case, but there is no result yet." Erica finally revealed some information.

It was not that she had lost her ethics as a top killer, but because she saw three more aliens crawling out of the darkness, silently surrounding her.

No matter how subtly Erica changed her position and the direction she was facing, and how she was ready to attack and fight her way out, there would always be an alien blocking her way.

Erica watched helplessly as horrible saliva flowed from the mouths of the aliens. She could only weakly hold the guns and blades in her hands.

According to the information revealed in that video, one of the alien's most powerful weapons seems to be a small mouth inside its mouth. It is an organ similar to a tongue or bone. At the tip of the tongue is a ferocious little mouth, and its attack speed is faster than a bullet.

If she really had to face multiple aliens at the same time, especially if more and more aliens kept appearing quietly, she would die miserably.

"Erica, you really don't know anything about your five old superiors. You don't even know why they can become so powerful and master all kinds of magic and ninjutsu." Duva said, looking at the beauty in front of him.

Erica, Daredevil's old lover, is a killer of the Hand. She is proficient in various killing techniques and is a world-class killer.

But...if it was just this level, Duva didn't even bother to look at her any more, because when it came to assassination, ordinary humans who didn't master extraordinary powers would still fall short no matter how much they trained their bodies.

If it was purely a fight of fighting skills, he might be able to fight an ordinary alien on equal terms, but it would be difficult to fight a special alien, even one that was parasitized by a vampire.

Duva really couldn't understand where the Hand got the confidence to allow a guy like Erica to appear in front of him.

Yes, Dua never believed in any form of coincidence. The old guys called "Five Fingers", who stole the power of the dragon from Kunlun and had hundreds of years of life, and then united to worship a hell demon, would honestly follow the procedure.

One of the important abilities that the Hand obtained from the "Beast" Demon is to resurrect the dead and turn them into their own killers - to some extent, it is similar to the Court of Owls in DC next door.

However, in terms of style, it is far inferior to the Court of Owls, which can connect to the gate of the dark multiverse and indirectly allow the dark god, the origin of Batman, to enter the normal multiverse.

The Hand was full of interest in all forms of assassination, and with the "beast" demon on the side, when Erica appeared here, their attitude was already clear.

"Let her go. This Hand rookie probably doesn't know anything yet. I can provide some information. Those five guys are secretly trying to find out about the mutants and the 'Flying Man.'"

Coulson came out and said in a serious tone, but he quickly blinked and emphasized: "This information is free."

"Come on, Coulson, I'm only short of money at the start-up stage. As long as the initial capital is accumulated, I don't need any extra US dollars. But maybe I heard it wrong just now, you said...Flying Man?"

"That's right, the mysterious man in the blue and gold suit, who was defeated by you and then escaped, also killed General Ross single-handedly. Some people on the Internet respectfully called him a T0-level super criminal, on the same level as Magneto." Coulson looked as if it was a matter of course.

"I don't think Magneto would think Ikaris is qualified to be on par with himself. So, after Ikaris showed his powerful strength, he was awarded the title of 'Flying Man'? He is a very proud guy. He will find out about this soon and then try his best to kill everyone who calls him that." Duva's expression was a little teasing.

"Ikaris?"

Coulson was shocked. He finally had a way to get started, so he didn't have to waste too much time on meaningless small talk. He spoke rapidly, "Is that his name? You loudly accused him of being a mutant. What are mutants? How many people like Ikaris are there among mutants?"

Erica was glad that she was ignored. She retreated while observing Coulson who had just appeared, and looked at Duva from time to time.

If a few aliens hadn't accurately blocked the only few points suitable for fighting and trapped her inside, Erica would have wanted to run away long ago.

The two men were talking loudly about irrelevant things, and neither of them took her seriously, which made young Erica both relieved and a little frustrated.

Chapter 19 You are SHIELD, don't try to offend the Strategic Research Institute

Duva looked at Coulson with an innocent face and felt that this guy was insincere.

"Coulson, we may not be friends, but at least I don't want you to deceive me with your bad words."

Duval looked at Coulson with a strange look in his eyes: "You are S.H.I.E.L.D., a S.H.I.E.L.D. with a long history, and many of its actions have directly affected human history. It is not an organization established in the last century as rumored outside... So, do you really have to make me explain it clearly?"

Duval got to know this world. It would be fine if there were no mutants, but with mutants, things involving the Eternals and mutants became more troublesome.

Looking across the multiverse, the origin of mutants is the same in most cases: mutants.

Therefore, as long as it is not a very rare case, Duva has reason to conclude that the mutants in his universe also originated from the group of mutants that had long been extinct.

The Cosmic Celestials are conducting experiments on many life-bearing planets, and have created two opposing races, the Eternals and the Mutants. They conduct trials every once in a while, and those that pass the trials will survive, while those that fail will be exterminated.

A typical example is the Skrulls, a mutant race from another branch. They killed the Eternals on their planet and passed the review of the Celestials before becoming one of the three major interstellar empires that dominate the galaxy today.

As a result, the Skrulls became arrogant. They and their Skrull gods wanted to do to the Kree what the Celestials did to the Skrulls. However, they failed. The Kree used their power to rise at an exaggerated speed and became their most powerful enemy.

The same goes for the Eternals and Mutants on Earth, which were created by the Cosmic Celestials.

Before Ikaris and his group of Eternals, there were older batches of Eternals and Mutants who dominated the Earth earlier than humans, established a powerful civilization 20,000 years ago, and had a direct impact on the history of the Earth!

Many years ago, when humans were still primitive, the Celestials had already chosen the Earth as a large-scale testing ground and created the Eternals (Eternals) with perfect genes - the ancestors of Thanos, and the Deviants (Mutants) with infinite mutant genes - who could barely be considered the ancestors of mutants.

Twenty thousand years ago on Earth, the Eternals and Mutants ruled everything. At that time, the mutants were intelligent life forms that could develop technology, build cities, and manufacture interstellar battleships. They were not the same as the "mutants" that Ikaris and the other 11 Eternals were dealing with, which were more like large wild dogs.

The two major races went to war for supremacy on Earth.

The ending is strikingly similar to that of the Skrulls - the mutants with infinite mutation genes win.

The Eternals, who possessed perfect genes, were defeated in the war, and the entire tribe fled the Earth and migrated to Titan. During the migration, they were attacked by the Kree Empire, one of the three major empires in the Milky Way. A large number of the Eternals were put on the dissection table by the Kree for live experiments, and as a result, another branch of mankind was born - the Inhumans, who are now located on the moon and led by the father-like powerful Black Bolt.

The mutants won a tragic victory, but before they could truly enjoy the fruits of victory, they were judged as unqualified products by the gods and were brutally exterminated.

But the mutants became extinct, and their mutant genes were luckily passed down to the pitifully weak humans at the time. After generations of reproduction, they became mutants.

This was a major event that happened 20,000 years ago and changed the course of the entire history of the Earth. Without this major event, there would be no mutants today. On the contrary, as long as there are mutants, it means that there must have been an extinct race of mutants with infinite mutant genes in this world.

As for the series of chain reactions that followed, the extinction of the two tribes led to a power vacuum on Earth, giving the great demon Zatanos of Hell the opportunity to enter the Earth; in order to fight the demons, a large number of vengeful spirits fell from the sky accompanied by rain of fire. One of the vengeful spirits, many years later, combined with a motorcycle man to become the Ghost Rider...

Major events such as the rise of the mutant Apocalypse, the gods of the World Tree joining forces to fight against a group of cosmic gods thousands of years ago, Zhang Heng of the Eastern Han Dynasty asking a celestial being to give birth to a child, Leonardo da Vinci creating the solar armor and entering the sun to expel the young celestial being, and the separation of S.H.I.E.L.D., can all be traced back to the struggle between the Eternals and the mutants.

Well, this is especially true when Thanos massacred Titan and almost killed all the Eternals who originated from Earth.

Therefore, when Duva knew that there were mutants on Earth in this universe, he had already prepared himself mentally for this and was continuously collecting various information, looking for traces hidden in the corners of history.

And how could S.H.I.E.L.D., one of the two major branches of the global supernatural organization "Brotherhood of the Shield" which dates back to the Eastern Han Dynasty and was founded by Zhang Heng and others, know nothing about mutants?

Well, even if S.H.I.E.L.D. doesn't know about the orthodox mutants that were exterminated by the Celestials 20,000 years ago, after all, the little brother who knows that humans are divided into two major races, the Eternals and the mutants, doesn't he also know about the low-level mutants like wild dogs that were released to the earth by the Celestials named Alisom in the past few thousand years?

These 11 Eternals were created as new tools. Their memories were repeatedly erased by Arsem and they were used as weapons to deal with lower-level mutants and kill various mutants. Could it be that SHIELD was unable to monitor them at all and did not leave any records?

Do not make jokes.

At this moment, Coulson's expression changed completely.

"This is not right." Coulson frowned and stared into Duval's eyes. "I don't understand. We have checked all the information and confirmed that you are indeed a scientist with some intelligence, but there is no way you can access this level of information!"

"why?"

"Because of the platform, you have never stood on a decent platform, and there is no reason for you to access these things buried in history."

"So, Coulson, is there a possibility that what you found out about me is just what I want you to see?" Duva said with a half-smile.

Coulson was silent. He still firmly believed that Duva was talking nonsense, but this was in logical conflict with the fact that Duva had secret information.

After a while, Coulson concluded that he could not dig out Duva's secrets from him, so he turned his attention to the mutants: "If I'm not mistaken, Ikaris is not that kind of giant reptilian mutant?"

"If you are talking about the mutants that appeared in the past few thousand years, it is indeed not the same thing." Duva's answer seemed a little confusing.

But Coulson understood immediately, and great horror appeared in his eyes.

It's outrageous. Duval also knew about the mutants that once dominated the Earth for a short time? That happened 20,000 years ago. Even S.H.I.E.L.D., which has a long history, doesn't know much about that period of history!

"I will report our conversation truthfully. So this is one of your confidence. I just don't know if you have a stable source of intelligence, or if you have personally experienced many major events in human history?"

Coulson became completely interested in Duva. He decided that after he returned, he would look through the documents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and look for clues about Duva from historical records.

Yes, he suspected that Dua was some historical figure who had an extremely long life and lived into modern society.

This is not uncommon. For example, the demonic mutant Red Devil, whom Magneto values, is an old guy who has lived for five or six thousand years, from the Age of Apocalypse to the present day.

Duval shrugged and made a gesture of invitation.

Coulson considered his words carefully. "Since Ikaris is not a mutant, this is the best outcome. Otherwise, things will be troublesome. You know what I mean, right? The real mutants of the ancient times became extinct. Another group of mutants that appeared in the past few thousand years - let's call these reptiles 'mutants' for the time being. This is good."

Duva nodded in understanding. If Ikaris was really a legitimate intelligent mutant race with infinite mutant genes from 20,000 years ago, then the problem would be serious.

Don't forget that there is a group of dangerous mutants on Earth. They will also trace their own origins to prove that mutants are nobler than humans. Maybe they have already found some clues.

Chapter 20 Mystique Discovers the Truth

The issue of mutants is the most acute issue within humanity.

The Inhumans can barely be considered descendants of the Eternals. Like the mutants, they first appeared among humans on Earth, but Black Bolt brought their entire clan to the moon.

This race, which also possesses extraordinary abilities and can climb the technology tree, is not a threat to humans. On the contrary, people can regard it as a sub-branch of the human race and a force that can be united.

In some parallel universes, Black Bolt is also a member of the Illuminati and the backbone of the protection of the Earth.

But mutants are different. This group, which can barely be considered the descendants of mutants, should actually be considered a branch of humans. They should be considered an important part of the human population, at least much stronger than the vampire population.

As a result, humans and mutants are in a mess, and in the eyes of many people, it has become a situation where it's either you or me, which is very bad.

"I know your concerns, but the fact is, I don't believe that some mutant organizations, such as the Brotherhood, are completely ignorant of the situation of the extinct mutants. They are trying every means to prove that they are nobler than humans, and they will definitely check things in history." Duva spread his hands.

Coulson nodded: "Yes, this subject is called 'Mutant Origins' and is very popular among the mutant community."

What he worried about most was that if the mutants mistook Ikaris, an Eternal, for a mutant from ancient times, it would be troublesome.

But unfortunately, what he or SHIELD is worried about is exactly what Duval wants to see.

Duva had no ill feelings towards these 11 Eternals, but he didn't have any good feelings towards them either. He had even less good feelings towards the inferior mutants who were like wild dogs. These two groups of things were simply tools that Alisem had used repeatedly for millions of years.

They are completely different from the Eternals and Mutants on planets like the Skrulls and Earth who can reproduce and establish civilizations.

Not to mention, Duval has already faced off against Ikaris, the most powerful of the 11 Eternals.

"Having the same abilities as the Superman next door, even though he's a poor man's version of Superman, it would be great if I could use him as a parasite." Duva thought to himself.

Seeing Duval's look, Coulson stood up and said, "Well, this meeting ends here. I still have many other tasks. But, Mr. Duval, you don't want to see the world become chaotic, right?"

Coulson looked at the aliens around him meaningfully, with deep fear flashing in his eyes.

One of the important purposes of his visit this time was to take the risk and observe these horrible creatures up close.

It can parasitize the Abomination, and after its birth, it clearly displayed a combat power that surpassed the Abomination. Even though Coulson was knowledgeable, he still felt a chill in his heart about this kind of thing.

I just don't know how this creature can reproduce, and what its parasitic limit is. Can it only parasitize mammals? Can it only parasitize ordinary creatures? Then...what about gods?

There is no shortage of gods in this universe. Some interstellar civilizations that have developed over many years have established their own pantheon.

For example, the Skrulls have Skrull gods.

Alien, Coulson learned the name of this creature this time, and also confirmed that these creatures are extremely obedient to Duva, for unknown reasons.

There are too many mysteries about the alien, and Duvall, who controls the alien by unknown means, is even more puzzling.

Coulson left, and before leaving, he pointed at Erica and said, "If you don't mind, I'd be happy to take her away. The Japanese Hand is notorious and has committed many major crimes."

"I mind. I want to keep her."

"Okay." Coulson would not argue with Duvall on such a matter, and left worriedly.

Only Erica was left, stuck in a dilemma. Her face turned pale and she was in low spirits.
