A Magical Journey Starting at Hogwarts

ah!

Frank screamed in pain and staggered back a few steps.

General Ika's mask fell off his face and was caught in the hands of a gasping Coulson.

"It's too hard to tear." Coulson smacked his lips, "It's like brown candy that's been stuck on the floor for a long time."

"It's quite funny to describe it." Frank chuckled, "I felt like my face was covered with tape, and then it was all ripped off at once."

Aaron took General Ika's mask and placed it on the table casually, "Take off the mask. If nothing happens, you can leave."

Frank nodded with a complicated expression, then turned and left.

Coulson looked at his back thoughtfully, inexplicably feeling that something was wrong, "The Punisher seems to have too much respect for you."

"If you help him find every enemy who killed his whole family, he will also respect you." Aaron said unconcernedly.

Hearing this, Coulson no longer thought about it, "I know this may be a little embarrassing, but I have to find out the origins of Abe and this mask and confirm their threat."

"I knew there would be such a day sooner or later." Aaron picked up the dozing Abe and held him gently in his arms, "This little guy..."

"Wait, little guy?" Coulson interrupted in surprise, "Don't tell me you don't know how big it is?

The only creature larger than it that I have seen over the years is the Chitauri's Leviathan Whale Ship. No, the Leviathan Whale Ship can only be regarded as a semi-mechanical life form. "

"Don't make a fuss." Aaron said lightly, "Abel is only ten years old, just a young dragon that has not grown up."

Gulu!

Coulson gulped.

He still knew the concept of ten years old, but judging from the surveillance footage, Abe was at least fifty meters tall.

He didn't know much about mythical creatures, but to grow so big at ten years old...

What kind of interstellar joke are you kidding? Even if you said it was hundreds of years old, I would reluctantly accept it.

"Don't worry, Abe. It has been following me since it was an egg."

"Egg?" Colson's face twitched and his expression became a little tense. "I would like to ask you where you found the dragon egg. Is it one? Or...a nest?"

This question is quite serious. It would be fine if it was a dragon egg, but Abe might be just an exception.

But if it is a nest, it means that there may still be "dragons" in myths and legends living on the earth, which may have a big impact on human society.

"What good things are you thinking about? I would like to pick up a nest of dragon eggs, but unfortunately I don't have that kind of luck.

As for Abe..." Aaron pondered for a moment and then said nonsense seriously, "It was given to me by my teacher, and it is the last holy dragon on earth. "

Colson looked at the dragon in Aaron's arms suspiciously, "Are you sure it's the last one?

I mean shouldn't it have a mom and dad? Is it possible that Chengdu is dead? "

Why are there so many problems? How do you want me to make it up?

Aaron complained silently in his heart, but his expression did not change at all, "I don't know about this, but my teacher will definitely not lie to me."

“I have raised Abe since he was born. Even though he looks very cute, his IQ is no weaker than that of humans.

And it only listens to my words, and some people with ulterior motives cannot fool it. "

Colson: ...

It feels like it’s being interpreted, and it’s not SHIELD that has ulterior motives, right?

But it's really not necessary. If Abe was an innocent baby dragon, the director would be so shameless as to poach him, but this is such a huge monster that he might send someone away if he accidentally sneezes.

"What's the difference between the Holy Dragon and other dragons?"

"Being able to grow bigger or smaller freely, as for the rest... I can't tell you, this is Abe's secret." Aaron smiled enigmatically, "But one thing is for sure, the Holy Dragon is better than ordinary dragons. Be stronger."

"Uh... you can still guess this." Colson laughed dryly, "What about this mask?"

"According to legend, there are ten ghost masks in total, and each mask contains a ghost general.

Once you put on the mask, your physical fitness will be comprehensively improved, and you will also have the ability to summon the corresponding ghost army. However, after putting on the mask, your heart will be slowly eroded by the darkness from the mask, and will eventually completely engulf the wearer's mind. , making it a complete devil, and summoning the ghost army will speed up the erosion.

This process only varies in speed, but it is irreversible. Even a righteous person like Steve Rogers will gradually be swallowed by darkness.

Fortunately, there are special ways to take off the mask after putting it on. "

"Is it the same potion just now?"

"Yes and no." Aaron shrugged noncommittally, "There are ten ghost masks in total, and each one requires a corresponding medicinal solution to be removed."

"Is there a way to restrain it?" Coulson murmured, silently lowering the risk assessment of the ghost mask by one level, and instead improving the cost-effectiveness.

As long as you can take off the mask in time, there is no risk, and wearing the mask can strengthen your physical fitness and summon the ghost army... a complete benefit!

“Aaron, this is an Ika mask, it can summon those dark warriors.

So what are the other nine mates? where? What's the way to remove them? "

"Want to find it?" Aaron looked at him with a half-smile.

"These masks are very dangerous. If they fall into the hands of someone with ulterior motives..."

"Forget it!" Aaron gave him a contemptuous look, "I'm embarrassed to point it out to you."

Coulson blinked, and smiled awkwardly but politely: "I admit that I have some ideas about the ghost mask, but I don't have any ulterior motives. SHIELD can..."

At this point, Coulson seemed to have thought of something, and his voice stopped abruptly.

"Speak! Why don't you say it? What can SHIELD do?" Aaron laughed teasingly, "I dare to give the ghost mask to SHIELD, but does SHIELD dare to accept it?"

Coulson was silent, speechless for a while.

If it was before, he would nod confidently, what's there to be afraid of?

But now...I really don't dare! There are still a lot of Hydras lurking inside SHIELD. If the ghost mask is taken back, it would be a serious act of aiding the enemy.

And the effect of the ghost mask does not need to be tested at all, it is clear when you put it on, and it can be directly converted into combat power.

"To tell you the truth, six of the ten ghost masks are in my hands."

"Six?" Coulson was shocked, his pupils full of disbelief, "Are you... sure you are not teasing me?"

"Agent Coulson, don't be so shocked, okay?

I have lived for twenty years, shouldn't it be a matter of course that I can find six ghost masks?

In addition to the Ika mask, the Nijia mask, the Lazo mask, the Bart mask, the Samo mask, and the Resu mask are all in the secret room behind me."

"Don't make it sound so easy!

Wait, you put such a dangerous thing behind this wall? Isn't this too careless?"

Aaron smiled but didn't say anything, just raised Abe's dragon claw and waved it at Coulson.

"Uh..." Coulson immediately understood something, his expression became extremely unnatural, "Isn't this too extravagant?"

Normal people just raise a dog to guard the door, the rich and powerful can raise some tigers and leopards, and the lawless can raise an army, but putting a dragon to guard the door... you really know how to play!

"I worked so hard to raise it. A considerable part of the money I earned is for its food. If it only eats and does nothing, I will lose a lot!

What's more, it is guarding Gaius's treasure house, and it has a great responsibility!

Those who can't beat Abe will die one by one. Those who can beat Abe don't look down on the ghost mask."

Coulson nodded blankly, speechless.

With such a giant dragon, Gaius's treasure house is much safer than the SHIELD parasitized by Hydra.

"Any more questions, Agent Coulson?"

Coulson shook his head, then nodded, "There are still some things I want to ask you for help."

"Please go ahead."

"Director Fury wants to order another batch of universal potion."

"That's no problem, but... I've never had less potion for SHIELD every month, why did he suddenly come up with this idea?"

"This is for a SHIELD veteran." Coulson thought for a moment, and decided to tell the truth, "Once the director decides to eliminate Hydra within SHIELD, a civil strife is inevitable, and at that time we will need a person with enough weight to calm the situation."

"Oh! Got it." Aaron nodded in understanding, then raised three fingers, "Three times the price."

"That's... no problem.

If you still have Phoenix Tears, maybe you can..."

"No, Phoenix Tears are very valuable and not for sale."

"Five hundred million." Coulson made a direct offer, "This price is not low, the Almighty Potion is enough, Phoenix Tears are just insurance."

"This is not about money."

Colson pursed his lips and said in a deep voice: "Six hundred million, this is the highest price I can offer, if it doesn't work, then..."

"Deal." Aaron said immediately, then took a glass bottle from the shelf behind him and put it on the shelf. On the table, "Six hundred million, five hundred and ninety million will be put on my card, and I hope the remaining ten million will be paid in cash." Hearing this, Coulson was stunned for a while, "Didn't you say this is not about money?" "This is indeed not about money, but who made me short of money!" Aaron spread his hands bluntly, "Do you think it costs nothing to raise a dragon?" "Uh... makes sense." Coulson carefully put away a bottle of Phoenix Tears, "In addition to the potion, there is another thing... This thing gives me a headache." "For the sake of this big deal that has just been negotiated, I don't mind listening." "I suspect Ward may have a problem." "What?" Aaron's pupils He opened his mouth slightly, and the corners of his mouth involuntarily raised an arc, "Is it the Ward I understand?"

"Grant Ward, the operations expert in Coulson's team."

"Hahaha!" Aaron couldn't help laughing, "This is so interesting, Coulson.

One of the people you trust most is actually Hydra. You must inform me on the day you meet in battle, so that I can be happy."

Coulson's mouth twitched slightly, "It's just a suspicion, not sure yet."

"There should be a limit to self-deception!

If you hadn't confirmed Ward's identity, you would never have mentioned this to me." Aaron looked at him meaningfully, "Why did you suspect him?"

"Agent John Garrett, Fury confirmed his identity as Hydra through several investigations, and Ward was brought into S.H.I.E.L.D. by him and was his de facto life mentor.

S.H.I.E.L.D.’s talent training model has a tradition of old agents leading new agents. Ward is an agent apprentice trained by Hydra who is not inferior to him. I...

I wanted to believe him so badly, but I had to answer to the whole squad. "

"That's good." Aaron clapped his hands, "Then the rest of your team will have no problems?"

"There will be no problem with Mei, she is Fury's and is one level higher than me.

There will be no problem with Fitz and Simmons. They are top talents in the academy. Even their parents' information is recorded in the file. Hydra will not choose them.

As for Skye...do you think she'll be Hydra? "

"So there's only one Grant Ward left?"

Coulson nodded hesitantly, "Ward is definitely questionable, but based on his image in the minds of the team members... Unless I have enough evidence to prove it, I can't act rashly."

"It's really hypocritical." Aaron curled his lips, "This just shows that Grant Ward is a successful spy. His superb acting skills and emotional investment make you unwilling to believe that he is a spy."

"That's why it's dangerous."

"Let's get down to business! What do you want me to do for you?"

"Once civil strife breaks out, I will subdue Agent Ward..."

"You can't beat him." Aaron said bluntly, "I know this is a bit heartbreaking, but it is a fact."

"He doesn't know that I'm already suspicious of him. It's still possible to subdue him by taking him by surprise, and Agent Mei will also help."

"Then what do you want me to do?" Aaron asked in confusion. Everything has been arranged, so you can't invite him to watch the show, right?

"Interrogation." Coulson said bluntly, "I need you to interrogate Ward in front of other people, so that they can see clearly what kind of person he is and no longer take any chances."

"Can't you do this?

Yes, you really can't, he knows you all too well. Aaron chuckled and said, "Especially those team members of yours are still too young and full of emotions. They don't even know what the sinister nature of people's hearts are."

Ward knows the weaknesses of each of you, so it is not impossible that you were deceived by him. "

"I hope I'm overthinking it." Colson smiled mockingly, "But... I can't bet on this. Just in case, I thought of asking you for help."

"Well...you know me, I don't want to waste time on such nonsense."

"It's just a small favor. Technically speaking, you are half a member of my team."

"That's just what you think."

"I can advance the remuneration in advance, a piece of 084 within the scope of my license."

"Colson, I suddenly feel envious of your team, for having such a gentle commander like you." Aaron looked at him in surprise, "Speaking of this, I'm too embarrassed to refuse."
