Marvel Magic Event Book

The room covered with dark red carpet is very spacious, but there is not much lighting, and the dark oak floor absorbs all the light that is not strong enough.The only source of light is from the fireplace on the right side of the room.Two high-backed soft chairs were placed at an angle, and a tall man sat on one of the chairs.General Hale noticed him at a glance. His presence was so strong, as if he was the center of the room. Even though he was well-dressed, General Hale could still detect the explosive muscle power under his clothes.

The warm breeze and the slight crackling sound caused by the burning fire hit his face. The man was not affected by Gideon Malik and General Hale entering the room, but continued to sit on another high back. The woman in the soft chair spoke.His expression was relaxed and cheerful, his long black curly hair and obsidian eyes reflected the warm light of the fireplace, and his cheerful voice changed slightly because of the empty room.The person sitting on the soft chair opposite laughed lightly from time to time because of the man's topic. General Hale felt that the woman's voice sounded familiar, but the high back of the chair blocked her line of sight, and she could only see a strip of white skin. arm.

It was a young woman's arm.

Gideon Malik stopped General Hale from walking over and motioned for her to wait here.

General Hale pulled out his arms, straightened his spine, and stood in a comfortable position.She began to speculate on the man's identity. Combining the flags and badges she had seen in the hall, she could determine that the golden eagle badge represented this man, or the power behind this man.It's definitely not S.H.I.E.L.D., that's ridiculous, that design looks more like an ancient emblem than a modern, simple logo.

She couldn't imagine what kind of force could possess power armor and super soldiers, two technologies that the U.S. government dreamed of. But if this man really had such terrifying power, then it would be nothing to have a general standing aside and waiting. Something unexpected.At least it is much more friendly to the people than the Goldman Sachs family, the Lehman family, the Lazard family, the Warburg family, the Stern family and other plutocrats.Even though she is a general of the United States, the talkers of those plutocrats are not something she can meet whenever she wants. Those people are the financial backers of the US government.

The sound of the door opening was heard from where the firelight of the fireplace could not reach. General Hale was surprised to find that Gideon Malik's daughter was walking out carrying a steaming tray with several exquisite... porcelain cup.She originally thought the man was talking to Stephanie.Stephanie smiled and handed one of the cups to the man, who also had a cup in the other high-backed ottoman.Gideon Malik received the signal as if he was electrocuted. He smiled and motioned for General Hale to step forward.

The man did not sit up, but smiled and nodded to General Hale.

"Mom?" The person sitting in the other high-backed chair stood up in surprise, "Why are you here?"

"Ruby?" General Hale was also quite surprised, but she quickly reacted.She grasped her daughter's wrist tightly at an alarming speed and pulled her to her side.Ruby screamed, and the cup filled with mulled wine fell to the carpet. Lemon slices, cloves and cinnamon rolls, together with the hot red wine, stained the exquisite carpet, while she shook her red palms in panic.

"What does this mean?" She glared sternly at Malik's father, then at the man sitting in the soft chair.If her subordinates encountered such a look, their knees might go weak, but the man just smiled and took a sip of mulled wine and did not respond.

"Mom, this is my friend!" Ruby defended dissatisfiedly.She did regard Salomon as a friend. After all, it was not Salomon who brought her the experience she had never had before. As mentioned before, Ruby was the product of artificial insemination by General Hale.After Dr. Whitehall's eugenics plan came to an end temporarily, the newborn Ruby grew up in that Hydra school.If Dr. Whitehall had not died, Ruby, who had now entered puberty, would have become the mother body of the eugenics program and would have been artificially inseminated to give birth to the next stage of the product.However, Alexander Pierce's power was destroyed, Dr. Whitehall's property was taken over by the Malik family, the researchers were merged into the Immortal City, and Ruby's artificial insemination plan was completely scrapped.

This girl learned everything there was to learn and did all the training there was to do, but she never saw the outside world.The door to her room is a standard explosion-proof door, with a five-centimeter-thick alloy plate and a combination lock.Salomon used magic to saw through the steel plate, extended an invitation to the astonished Ruby, and gave him a gift.

A telescopic hunting knife and a double-barreled pistol.

Ruby accepted the gift without hesitation.

Salomon first took Ruby to visit the Hydra security personnel who he killed.After confirming that Ruby had no aversion to blood and death, he took Ruby around New York City, traveled around the world through the portal, and finally arrived at the room in this castle.Ruby went completely crazy. Her favorite activity was skydiving without an umbrella. She did it three times. She was like a child in an amusement park begging her parents to ride a roller coaster together. The excitement brought about by this excitement almost made this girl go crazy. Girls who have never seen the outside world can't stop.

She longs for her next adventure, if only with Salomon.

"Shut up!" General Hale blushed with anger, "I thought this was a negotiation, but I didn't expect your methods to be so mean!"

"Why don't you listen to what I have to say?" Salomon first waved his hand to remove the stains on the carpet, then stretched out his hand and invited General Hale to sit on the soft chair where Ruby sat before.General Hale accepted hesitantly, but she asked her daughter to stay by her side and not go anywhere. Although Ruby was not happy, she obeyed General Hale's instructions. She rubbed her wrists and stood aside. Eyes full of desire.Stephanie took General Hale's coat and hung it on the cloakroom nearby.Salomon told Gideon Malik, "We need some time, I can't stay in Europe for too long."

"As you wish, my lord." Gideon Malik nodded and exited the room with his daughter.When he walked out of the room, his steps were as brisk as a young man's. The slowness General Hale saw in the old man before was all an illusion he had put on.After undergoing evisceration surgery, joint replacement surgery and stem cell reconstruction surgery in the Eternal City, Gideon Malik will live for another 50 years.Stephanie quietly winked at Salomon before leaving the room. After receiving a slight nod from Salomon, she left the room with a smile.

"I believe you must have met Constantine. He is my Praetorian Guard." Salomon said with a polite and smile that could not be offensive. "I'm sorry that I don't have time to introduce him to you. I will be there next time." If there is time, I will definitely do so. I think we can have a good talk, General Hale, would you like a glass of mulled wine?"

"I'm a little worried."

"It's nothing to worry about, father, I've never met anyone the monarch couldn't convince." Stephanie took a slow sip of mulled wine.Salomon once personally taught her how to make mulled wine, which is said to be the Greeks' favorite recipe. "For example, the Malik family, like me." She said proudly, taking pride in the fact that the Malik family has become the monarch's trophy, like an animal head hanging on a decorative board, something that can be taken out to show the glory of the owner.Gideon Malik doesn't have many objections to becoming a complete vassal, because Stephanie told him that Salomon has a space fleet that can conduct space operations, and the Malik family can take this flight to the Eternal City. It's Salomon's reward.

"Constantine." Stephanie said to the boy named Zero, who was now called Constantine through time dilation and time stone accelerated growth and training, "I'll leave the rest to you. "

"I will, Ms. Malik, I am an extension of the monarch's will."
