[Comprehensive] The Last Assassin
Chapter 59
There was a moment of astonishment on Charles' expression, as if he didn't know how to respond to this student who was not considered a student.
But Shen Qiong didn't need his answer.
The black-haired girl blinked her eyes, smiling slyly and cutely.With her hands behind her back, she leaned down slightly.Charles could clearly see her long black hair falling from her shoulders, and her green eyes under the slender eyelashes were as clear and bright as emeralds.
Like that night when a girl came into his house like a hawk, opened the box the wrong way, and talked drunk.
Charles couldn't help smiling.
His fingers subconsciously covered his jaw, and his index finger pressed against his lips.Shen Qiong has never seen anyone with more beautiful eyes than his. When these eyes are full of smiles, when this weak and helpless man in a wheelchair laughs, Shen Qiong even feels that it is easier than him. Stunning an army is even more terrifying.
This is the exclusive spell of Charles Xavier.
The daring Joan Frye also had to put away her minions and small thoughts, and stood up straight, not daring to tease her again, and said sternly: "Do you need me to push you? Professor."
Charles just looked up at her, crossed his fingers and said gently, "Joan."
Shen Qiong: "?"
Charles looked at her for a while, and Shen Qiong stood there waiting for him to speak.Charles recalled the first time he saw this girl. She was rebellious, flamboyant, and did whatever she wanted regardless of the consequences. She looked chic and at ease, but she was actually flying in a space full of piano wires.He didn't want her to be strangled by these piano wires, and then hate the whole world and become the second Eric, so he chose to use some extreme methods.
Now she is still rebellious and reckless.But she became much calmer, worried a lot, and finally had something that could make her stop.
It's just that it's not him who helped the other party in the end, but his students, her friends, people will not change because of a word, but only because of the people around her.The girl finally took the credit for herself, and Charles felt a bit impersonated for the credit, and he should have told the truth, as always.
But looking at Shen Qiong's green eyes staring at him, Charles Xavier was silent for a moment, opened and closed his mouth, swallowed the prepared lines again.
He crossed his hands, his expression felt helpless for a moment, he sighed, and smiled at Shen Qiong: "It seems that I need your help."
Shen Qiong happily pushed Professor Xavier to his "brain".Charles called Hank, and Hank frowned after hearing the current situation.He obviously didn't expect that the students who were recruited in order to avoid causing trouble ended up causing trouble—but this time she was the stopper.
Hank, who has also experienced war, has an extraordinary desire for peace.
He helped Charles find Warren Worthington's location in no time.
Shen Qiong asked nervously, "How does he look?"
Charles concentrated, frowning slightly: "It doesn't look good."
Shen Qiong: "Not too good?"
Charles said seriously: "He has a wound on his wing, and it seems to be healed by a strange black liquid. And this liquid is time-sensitive, so he needs to be replenished constantly... There is a special person who sent this for him. A liquid, which he hid in a necklace."
Shen Qiong immediately thought of the metal vial that Mordred sometimes hung on his chest. When she mentioned the black liquid, she almost immediately thought of the Holy Grail owned by the Exorcist Holy Order, so she calmly asked: "What is the liquid? like?"
"Pure black," Charles affirmed. "It's in small metal vials that will be refilled when they run out. Warren is now waiting for someone to help him refill the metal vial."
"What about the specific location, where are they?"
Charles said: "I have to look further."
He moved his consciousness up, away from Warren Worthington, to better find the building.However, after seeing the building clearly, an expression similar to disbelief appeared on his face.
Shen Qiong caught his changing expression: "Is there any problem?"
"...No." Charles condensed his expression, "It's an experimental building of NASA."
Shen Qiong thought to herself that the Templars should be very clear about Charles Xavier's involvement in various fields of North American political economy. It's not the headquarters) building and I'm surprised.
So she asked one more sentence: "What's the problem?"
Charles' expression was hard to describe for a while, he hesitated and said, "I don't think the problem is, it's just his position, maybe a little..."
Shen Qiong didn't have Charles's ability, and she became more and more confused: "A little bit?"
Charles breathed out, turned off the machine, took off his helmet, and said to Shen Qiong with sincere eyes: "This building is right next to the current Avengers headquarters and the Stark Building."
Shen Qiong: "... what!?"
"—Not only that! I designed and built this building! Later, I even transformed the energy supply system for them!" Tony Stark looked a little irritable, "A group of white-robed scientists live opposite you, this is Like working with Bruce, it's better to be neighbors with smarts than stupid ones, right?"
Peter knew in his heart that what Mr. Stark needed at this time was agreement and comfort, but he really couldn't say against his conscience that it was a good thing to be a neighbor with the Hulk, at least he didn't want the family next door to become the Invincible Hulk.
So he chooses to keep his mouth shut.
Spider-Man, who was most likely to comfort Stark, did not respond, let alone Shen Qiong.
Shen Qiong blinked, and said calmly: "In terms of threat value, maybe it's about the same."
Stark was dumbfounded.
Both Shen Qiong and Peter understood why Tony was angry at the moment, not because he really helped the enemy, but because he felt cheated.Since Iron Man became Iron Man, he has an indestructible and kind heart that wants to protect others.For this reason, he gave up the arms line that brought huge profits to Stark Industries, and instead researched clean energy.But at the same time, he is headstrong and does things only according to his preferences. He can use his steel armor to defend the earth, or he can wear it to hold a funny banquet.For him, steel armor represents nothing, just like Shen Qiong never felt that her weapon could represent her.
Iron Man is Iron Man because he is Tony Stark.Hidden sword or sword staff are the assassin's weapons because they are in Shen Qiong's hands.
He and Shen Qiong are very similar, so they see each other as friends.
But at this moment, Tony's good intentions to help have been deceived. The energy he provided is likely to be used to carry out evil experiments with animus, and the building he built may become a hotbed for a group of gangsters to formulate control plans.It was the opposite of what he wanted to do, and it made him angry, even ashamed.
Shen Qiong suggested: "Then when I call their boss, can I ask for compensation for you by the way?"
"Of course." Tony said blankly, "According to my worth, at least I have the North American branch."
Shen Qiong estimated the strength of the enemy and the enemy, and after a moment of silence, she slowly said: "Are you overestimating yourself..." Seeing Tony's narrowed eyes, Shen Qiong immediately shut up, "No, I mean, this It’s also a little bit good.”
"For example, you must have architectural drawings, right? At least it's much easier for us to get their floor plans."
"I don't think so." Tony frowned, "This building has been built for several years, and we don't know if they have undergone any internal renovations during this period. You must know that the decoration team is the most unnoticed outsider here. "
"At least the structure won't change, and the windows outside the house won't suddenly turn into walls." Shen Qiong said, "There are also drainage pipes. It would take a lot of effort to reinstall this thing. I don't think the Templars have the time to spare."
The floor plan was easy to find, but Tony saw something different from Shen Qiong's face.
He raised his eyebrows and said, "You seem very confident?"
"Confidence is a must. There has never been an assassin who was not confident in beating this group of knights." Shen Qiong said slowly, "But you are right, I am indeed confident, after I accidentally confirmed a piece of news."
She stared at Tony with burning eyes, and grinned: "Do you remember, when we found out that the Exorcist Order was an internal organization of the Templars, we had a guess?"
"The exorcist Holy Order is likely to disagree with the Templars. The two parties have been in conflict for a long time, and sooner or later they will tear each other apart." She excitedly said, "We can take advantage of this."
"But they have been at peace for a long time, especially the current leader of the exorcism guild. He comes from the temple and is more stable than previous leaders. Although there are conflicts, it is not easy to provoke them."
"He is very calm, but that was before he joined the Exorcism Holy Order!"
Shen Qiong's voice was a bit ferocious for a while, she pursed her lips, and after saying sorry, she continued in a calm tone: "Neditra, he should have been a candidate for the Grand Commander of the Knights Templar, but in the end Went to the Exorcist Holy Order. Although it seems to be a promotion, the Exorcist Holy Order is not the same as the Templar Knight."
"At least in Neditra's mind, the Exorcist Holy Order is a dump."
On the Xavier campus, after Charles took off his helmet, he stopped Shen Qiong who was planning to go back and inform Tony.
Charles said: "I saw something else, I think it should be an important clue."
Charles saw Neditra.
Also, Neditra seldom left the headquarters of the Exorcist Holy Order. When Charles was inspecting this building, it was quite normal to see this monk.Charles read the mind of this one.It is not so much reading and writing as it is that his thinking fluctuates so much that it is too easy to be listened to.
The Templar who led the Exorcist Order to this day never felt that the Exorcist Order could be compared with the Temple.He loathed the so-called "Holy Grail" that was flowing with black liquid, and he didn't even think it was a qualified Piece of Eden.
Even today, he is already respected by everyone as the leader of the exorcism guild, but he still thinks that the decision made by the temple was a punishment for him not completing the task perfectly.He was supposed to be a defender standing inside the temple, bathing in the glory of the heavenly father, but now he has become a butcher leader holding a knife in the dark.
He seemed calm, allowing the Exorcist Holy Order to live respectfully under the temple, maintaining the Templar system.
But in fact, he wanted to smash the glass tower more than anyone else.
More than anyone else, he longed to return to the temple.
Neditra saves Jason Thoth not because of his kindness, but because he knows who Jason Thoth is.His role as Robin would at least help him do things without Batman bothering him -- not to mention, Jason is good as a Robin, and even better as a knife.
The existence of Jason Todt, and his instigation of Jason Totella Warren Worthington, is the best proof that he wants to smash the glass tower.

Shen Qiong said: "I asked the professor to do me a favor."
Peter was curious: "Professor? Is it Professor Xavier?"
Shen Qiong didn't answer Peter's question, and said slowly: "The Templars will be in chaos."
Tony raised his brows slightly when he heard her extremely certain tone: "I remember...Charles Xavier is not a mutant who approves of abuse of power."
Shen Qiong was confident: "That's why I made the request?"
Tony obviously didn't believe it: "If you ask, he will help?"
·
Shen Qiong said: "Professor, can you help me... let the seeds buried between them germinate?"
"The Templar Knights and the Exorcist Holy Order, their grievances will have to be resolved sooner or later. What's more, letting them cooperate and become stronger will not benefit anyone." Shen Qiong added, "I don't think they will be stronger than politicians Believe that mutants have the right to live freely."
Charles asked after listening: "Is this your request?"
Shen Qiong was very nervous, she nodded quickly: "Yes, but if—"
"Yes, but I need a little time. It takes time to find the temple, and it takes time to influence Neditra without a trace."
It seemed that she didn't expect to get help so easily, Shen Qiong said subconsciously: "It's okay, we just need some time to make a plan."
Charles nodded: "I'll try to finish it within a week."
Shen Qiong nodded first, then looked at Charles hesitating to speak.
Although Charles has the ability to read minds, sometimes he can guess people's thoughts without using the ability, such as the confused Shen Qiong now.
"I am self-willed occasionally." He smiled slightly, "After all, I am also a man."
·
Shen Qiong said to Tony: "That's right, is it possible to hold a ceremony after agreeing to help?"
Tony rubbed his chin and stared at her, then suddenly sneered: "Maybe."
But Shen Qiong didn't need his answer.
The black-haired girl blinked her eyes, smiling slyly and cutely.With her hands behind her back, she leaned down slightly.Charles could clearly see her long black hair falling from her shoulders, and her green eyes under the slender eyelashes were as clear and bright as emeralds.

The daring Joan Frye also had to put away her minions and small thoughts, and stood up straight, not daring to tease her again, and said sternly: "Do you need me to push you? Professor."

She was rebellious, flamboyant, and did whatever she wanted regardless of the consequences. She looked chic and at ease, but she was actually flying in a space full of piano wires.He didn't want her to be strangled by these piano wires, and then hate the whole world and become the second Eric, so he chose to use some extreme methods.
Now she is still rebellious and reckless.But she became much calmer, worried a lot, and finally had something that could make her stop.

Hank, who has also experienced war, has an extraordinary desire for peace.
He helped Charles find Warren Worthington's location in no time.
