Shadow of the Beautiful World

After another 3 days, Carroll finally cleaned up the remaining debris beyond the orbit around the earth.

Most of them were pushed towards the sun by her, and the super big furnace would burn those wrecks completely, and a small part of research value was sent back to the earth by Carol, which is said to be hidden in a secret place. locations from which scientists can recover new technologies.

On her last day, Carol returned home alone to Massachusetts, where she was born and raised. That place is now a secret location of the Strategic Crisis Intervention and Espionage Logistics Service, and only a few agents know that secret.

At midnight, Carol took some gifts for the children and flew to Louisiana to spend the night with his best friend Maria and the little girl Monica.

When dawn came, she returned to Mar-Vell's laboratory, and the Skoru refugees headed by Talos had already adjusted the photon engine.

They are leaving.

Leave the galaxy forever, never to return.

And Carol Danvers, as their accompanying security personnel, will help Talos gather those scattered compatriots in the galaxy and be responsible for sending them to an unknown new home.

This is the new life that Carol found for herself. No one knows how long the road is, so all they can give her is blessings.

You'll come back eventually, right?

Nick Fury stood behind Carol who was carrying a big bag with his hands behind his back. He said in a low tone:

This is your home after all.

Of course, Fury.

Carol put her salute in her cabin, and she looked back at Fury. Bandages and a black goggle over the left eye of the agent are a feature that cannot be ignored. He has just been released from the hospital and is still frail.

but

Nice new clothes, Fury.

Carol looked at Fury's solemn and stylish black long windbreaker, as well as the brand new black marine boots on his feet, paired with a black turtleneck sweater and combat uniform pants, which surprised the black agent. Has a chilling aura.

You feel good too, don't you?

Fury spread his hands, looked down at his new uniform, and said:

I just received this dress this morning, and I really like it. Merlin went to London yesterday, and he brought it back for me. That guy is not bad, and he brought gifts for everyone.

Yeah?

Hearing Merlin's name, Carol's expression changed slightly. She hasn't seen Merlin these days, and she doesn't know what he's up to.

aggressive

Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrives. With a knock on the door, Merlin walked into the room carrying a small bag. Fury glanced at Carol with his single eye, and then at Merlin. He felt that there must be something to say between the two, so he found a reason and left here quickly.

But after Fury left, the room remained peaceful.

that night

Merlin hesitated to ask, but Carol raised her head, and she said expressionlessly:

Forget it, it's just that we were drunk.

All right.

Merlin shrugged, and he handed the small bag to Carol, who took it in his hand, took a look, and found that it was a lady's black flight jacket, and she used it to rescue Merlin Life's Kree Neckguard.

I want to give you some presents.

Merlin explained:

We all do this on Earth. When a friend leaves, you have to give a gift. But I don't know what you like, so I can only buy one.

Carol took out the black jacket from the bag, and she unfolded it. Although she didn't try it on, she could tell at a glance that it was definitely not something Merlin bought casually.

Because it fits so well.

It should have been ordered by him.

But Carol didn't break the secret. She didn't say anything, but folded the jacket and put it back in the wardrobe in the cabin. Merlin said behind her:

There is a magic pocket sewn into the left pocket of the suit, which can hold a lot of things, but don't try to fit a car in it, it has a weight limit.

The clothes don't need to be washed, and you don't have to worry about being damaged. It will be restored automatically. You can wear it across the galaxy, and maybe I can still see it when you come back.

And the neck brace, I thought you might need that, so I washed it off.

I don't need it, Merlin.

Carol took the red neck guard out of his pocket, which was like a thin collar when it was not activated. She threw the neck brace back to Merlin, and said with a blank expression:

After the energy awakening, I can already breathe in space. Take it, you need it more than I do.

Well.

Merlin looked at the neck guard in his hand, and said:

This thing is for women, the style doesn't suit me.

No, it's an item specially made by the Kerry Legion for stealth operations. Like my battle uniform, it can change its shape.

Carol stood up and took the neck guard from Merlin's hand. She put it on the controller on her wrist and pressed it twice, and the collar-like neck guard changed shape quickly.

It became a necklace, with a sapphire-like pendant beneath a thin silver chain.

Carol stretched out his hand, put the pendant on Merlin's neck, then took a step back, looked at it with his hips on his hips, and nodded:

Yes, this suits you very well.

Merlin stretched out his finger and tapped on the pendant. The next moment, the pendant changed rapidly, forming a half-covered visor on his face, which was no longer the helmet style before.

The extended, blue, glass-like respirator covered his nostrils, mouth, and most of his face, leaving only a pair of eyes.

It made Merlin look like a stealthy ninja.

It's really good.

Merlin looked in the mirror. He tapped on the neck, and the visor disappeared again, returning to a silver pendant.

This is a product of technology, but it looks as magical as a magical creation.

He wanted to turn around and say goodbye to Carol, but at this moment, two arms wrapped around his waist from behind, and Carol put her head on Merlin's shoulder, and she said softly:

I'm leaving, and it may take more than ten years to come back. Remember to take care of yourself, and if possible, find a woman who is more suitable for you, and don't always live so lonely.

besides

Carol lowered her voice, and she said in a whisper:

Your existence is not accidental, Merlin.

I can't tell you more, but I want you to remember that no matter what bad things happen to you in the future, no matter how much trouble you get into in the future, promise me, Merlin, never forget who you are, never, never do Make decisions that you will regret for the rest of your life.

Merlin felt that there was something in Carol's words, but he didn't continue to ask.

He reached out, patted Carol on the shoulder, and said:

the same as you.

Remember to call me when you get back to Earth. We're um, better friends than friends, right?

—

Merlin walked out of Carol's room and walked along the straight passage to the podium of the laboratory.

The Skoru Talos, who had changed into a uniform, was conducting the final flight test here. Several Skoru soldiers guarded around. When they saw Merlin, they put down their weapons and made way for him.

The earthling in front of him has helped them.

Although the Skrulls have a bad reputation in the galaxy, when they decided to leave the war, they also regained their ancient virtues.

Gratitude, this is an emotion that all intelligent life will have.

Agent Merlin, didn't you go down to eat?

While busy debugging the equipment, Talos said:

Ms. Maria and little Monica are going to have a parting dinner with us and they even brought food from home, which was huge.

I've come to say goodbye, Talos.

Merlin said to the Skoru in front of him:

I still have a job on Earth, so I won't bother you, and I will return to Earth with Fury in a while.

Hearing this, Talos stopped debugging the equipment. He put down the tools in his hand, looked back at Merlin, thought for a while, and said:

I just told Agent Fury something, and I think I should remind you too.

The Skrull's expression became serious, and he said:

You know something about the Skrulls. We have a queen and some warlike countrymen who are too busy fighting the Kree to care about the solar system at the edge of the galaxy. But you know, Merlin, war is not There will always be a stalemate, the war will always end, and there will always be a winner.

Talos glanced back at the blue earth, he said with some concern:

Based on my estimation of the current situation, the Cree people who have lost their highest intelligence are likely to go crazy, and they may try to end the war in the shortest possible time to deal with their own internal affairs. In other words, the Queen's faction of the Skoru people There could be a terrible blow, they're likely to lose, but they're not going to just give up.

I know the thoughts of my compatriots very well. Those who are caught in the war need power too much, so they will abandon a lot of reason. Once the news of the defeat of the Kree on Earth spreads, it is difficult to say what my compatriots will do. what happened

Talos looked back at Merlin, his eyes flashed with a warning light, and he said:

I think you should prepare in advance.

Once the empress decides to launch another civilization subversion war, with your current political system and the power of civilization, you will be almost powerless to resist.

Merlin's face changed slightly, he looked at Talos:

Is there any way to prevent it?

That's the problem.

Talos picked up the tool again, and he said sadly:

No.

If you want to avoid this kind of thing, you can only rely on luck. Maybe now, there are already lurking Queen's agents on the earth. Those elite spies want to infiltrate a civilization. Even if I am, it is difficult to distinguish their disguise.

After all, our ability is really suitable for this.

Then is there any way to see through you?

Merlin asked another question, but he suddenly realized that this question had no answer.

Talos betrayed his queen in order to find a new home that would not be affected by the war, but he would not risk the extinction of his race by exposing the greatest weakness of his race to others.

Merlin's question shouldn't be asked at all. It has no answer, at least not here in Talos.

All right.

Merlin nodded, and he said to Talos:

Thanks for the reminder, friend. I wish you all the best of luck in your journey, and may you finally find a perfect new home.

Talos smiled, and he opened his arms towards Merlin, as if he wanted to give Merlin a hug. Merlin hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward and hugged the tall guy.

Talos patted Merlin on the back, and at the moment of separation, he suddenly whispered:

The Skrull's camouflage can go deep into the dna level, but it's still not a panacea

Remember, Merlin, a fake is always a fake

100% perfect camouflage does not exist.

After speaking, Talos let go of Merlin, and he waved to Merlin friendly, as if saying goodbye. After watching Merlin leave, Talos started debugging the equipment again.

The Skrull is about to take his family and friends away from the war.

This was the last thing he could do for the world that had helped him before he disarmed and returned to the field.

He told Merlin about the Skrull's greatest weakness, albeit in a riddle-like form.

Is this a betrayal of one's own race?

Maybe

whoosh

The Mar-Well laboratory in orbit around the earth activated the photon engine. On the modified plane driven by Maria Rambo, Merlin and Fury watched the laboratory in front of them distort and elongate in an instant, and then suddenly disappeared in the next moment. Among the dead stars.

They are gone.

she left.

This made Merlin feel a little lost, but soon he adjusted his mood.

Looking back at Fury, who was fiddling with an odd bp machine, he said:

Are you ready, Fury?

You promised me that you took us to rebuild S.H.I.E.L.D.

Now, it's your turn to fulfill your promise.
