Chapter 771: The Cree and the Obelisk
Jia Ying let go of Daisy's hand, took out a quaint small box from the pocket of her underwear, handed it to Daisy, and said reminiscingly: "This is the peace knot I knitted for you, you have worn it around your neck since you were a child, and I found it some time ago." ”
Daisy took it and opened it to see that there was a Chinese knot made of red rope, and there were a few rusty copper coins hanging on it, which looked very old, and there were very old words on it, which seemed to be small seals, and she could recognize it thanks to the magic book of the ancient mage, in order to understand, she learned a lot of ancient characters.
"This is what I found out by accident when I was applying to be a reporter, at that time, there were frequent wars, and many people had to sell their property to make ends meet, and I also bought some other antiquities, but when I gave birth to you, there were only these few copper coins left, so I made a peace knot for you."
Jia Ying babbled about old things, but Daisy was completely dumbfounded, she suddenly realized that she couldn't count, otherwise how could she not count how many years have passed since the Republic of China? Looking at her mother's young appearance, it is not too much to say that she is her sister.
Republic? It can't be the end of the last century, right?
Seeing Daisy's stunned look, Jia Ying laughed out loud and said, "When I first met your father, I told him that I had interviewed Lu Xiaoman, and he was like this. ”
"You... You... Just kidding, right? Daisy felt that she had a problem with her speech and couldn't speak.
Jia Ying put away her smile and said seriously: "I don't know how long I lived, but I am not immortal, but an awakened ability, which can absorb the life force of others to replenish the life force consumed by myself."
In the Inhuman Village on Earth, the first villager was me, and then I brought back the issued Inhumans, and slowly formed a village, and the old people would let me absorb their vitality at the end of their lives, so that I could live longer, and bring back to the village the Inhumans who were struggling to survive outside. ”
Daisy is numb, she has heard too many stories today, from the earth to the Inhumans, and now it is the Inhumans Village and Jia Ying, and the three views are all broken, and she can't pick them up.
"It shouldn't be a coincidence that the leader of the Inhumans back then relied on absorbing the life force of other people to make himself live longer, and I have the same ability, and now seeing your ability and potential makes me even more sure of this." Jia Ying then changed the topic back to convince Daisy that she did have the blood of the strongest leader in history.
Daisy opened her mouth, she didn't know what to say at all, the knowledge was poor, there were too many things she didn't understand, and Jia Ying only said the point, she didn't know how to ask at all, believe it, it's a bit, don't believe it, what Jia Ying said is indeed quite true.
Without waiting for her to think about it any more, Jia Ying put another big move: "You can activate the obelisk is the best evidence." ”
"Huh?" Daisy was stunned, why did she start talking about the obelisk again, she almost forgot about this thing that activated her ability, since the Black Bolt King came to grab it, Grell has been putting the obelisk on the bookshelf of the dragon in Deres Castle, and has not touched it again.
"It depends on whether Jia Ying can ask it." Gordon stared with his 'eyes' at Jia Ying and Daisy as they walked deeper into the village. The existence of the obelisk is a top secret, even if it is Attillan, only the royal family and important ministers know about this long-lost artifact, if the obelisk is in the hands of the royal family, Attilan does not need to use the Terrigen crystal.
The long-term depletion has led to a drastic decrease in the reserves of Terrigan crystals, so that the number of people who participate in the Awakening Ritual has to be limited, and strict selection rules have been established, and then the children selected are all Inhumans, almost cutting off the way for civilians to rise.
In this way, the water was firmly blocked, rising higher and higher, which gave Maximus the opportunity to take advantage of the food crisis to rise up and respond to all the calls, so to speak, if Attilan had an obelisk in his hands, then for so many years, I don't know how many Inhumans could be made.
Even if there is a food crisis, the sheer number of Inhumans alone is enough to dispel all thoughts of rebellion, not to mention the large number of Inhumans, there is a high chance that someone like Gordon with the ability to transfer space will appear, or a secondary ability that accelerates the ripening of crops, etc.
It can be said that this is a real example of the missing obelisk and the end up losing a country.
In a brand new village, Daisy is marveling at Jia Ying's work efficiency, and being able to build such a large village in such a short period of time can only be attributed to the magic of the ability.
It's just that...
Daisy walked around the village, the mountains are high and the forests are dense, building a village in this col is already the limit, there is no extra land to open up farmland, so how to solve the problem of eating so many people? There is also travel, except for a small river, there is no way out, it is difficult to squat for a lifetime, what is the difference between that and Attillan.
Daisy raised the question in her heart, she didn't understand why the new Inhuman Village was built so remotely, even if it was a helicopter, it would take half a day to fly to reach the human city, and if it was two-legged, I was afraid that it would not be the first to go out and leave the mountain at the end of the month.
Jia Ying suddenly stopped, sighed heavily, and said, "How can I be willing to do this, but if I get too close to humans, the tragedy will happen again." ”
“...”
The tragedy in Jia Ying's mouth naturally refers to the fact that Inhuman Village was attacked twenty years ago, which caused many wives to be separated and died without seeing each other again.
Jia Ying raised his hand and pointed at Gordon and Lincoln, Daisy looked in the direction he was pointing, only to hear Jia Ying say: "Lincoln awakened the electric ability, and his appearance has not changed in any way, Gordon awakened the ability of spatial transfer, the price is to lose his eyes, and since then he has seen the world in black and white, but in comparison, Gordon is still lucky, many people have become like monsters after awakening."
It has the ability to blend in with the environment like a chameleon, but its body has become like that of a lizard, some of its strength has increased several times, but its body is also like a gorilla's lush hair, and some have two pairs of dragonfly-like wings growing on their backs, and they can fly..."
Jia Ying said, and her hand also pointed to the inhumans whose bodies had mutated due to the awakening ability she said, unless such inhumans were tightly wrapped in their bodies, they would be seen at a glance, and it would be impossible to walk in the human world.
And once discovered, then the fate of the next can be imagined, what humans like most is to study those strange things, not to mention that the ability of the inhuman has extremely strong power, and it is definitely an excellent choice for humans who pursue force.
Thinking about it this way, Daisy is extremely glad that she has not become a strange appearance, otherwise she really does not have the courage to go out, if she becomes like a lizard, even if she gives up the invincible power in the world, she is willing to change back to a normal appearance.
Seeing that Daisy was silent, Jia Ying reached out to hold Daisy's hand, continued to walk forward, and led her to sit on the grass outside the village, looking at the mountains and mountains in the distance, and said, "Do you know the origin of our Inhumans?" ”
Without waiting for Daisy to answer, she said to herself: "There is a legend in Attillan: the blue angel descends from the sky to choose the warriors of the earth..."
"Blue angels? Pick a fighter? Daisy doesn't know why, why is it still involved in mythological stories, and God will come out in a while.
Jia Ying nodded lightly and continued: "The blue angels are actually the Cree people from outer space, who came to the earth to create powerful warriors and conduct experiments on the humans at that time, such as fusing the genes of some earth creatures with human genes to cultivate embryos; Integrate the biological genes of the alien planet with the human genes to cultivate embryos; Even fusing the Cree genes with human genes and so on. ”
"It's... This is us Inhumans? Daisy's eyes widened in shock like brass bells, and she couldn't believe that her abilities were the result of alien experiments.
"Hmm!" Jia Ying nodded, and said faintly: "Inhuman race, Inhuman race, race different from ordinary people." Many Inhumans will become like monsters after awakening, and they are considered to be monsters or devils, and many heroes have been made to slay demons and eliminate demons. ”
It was the first time Daisy had heard of such a miserable past for the Inhumans, and she didn't expect that the legendary demons and monsters of various countries, the Inhumans would contribute so many prototypes, and she couldn't help asking, "What about the Kree?" ”
In her mind, if the Inhumans were the experimental objects of the Cree, how could they allow humans to slaughter at will? And Aren't Inhumans supernatural? At that time, human beings were still bows and arrows, and they were not as strong as they are now, so how could they be killed by weak humans?
Jia Ying seemed to see Daisy's doubts, looked up at the sky, and said, "It's Asgard, they defeated the Kree and became the new masters of the earth, and then armed the humans and trained them to become qualified warriors and mages, so that these people have the power to slay demons and eliminate demons." ”
Daisy was silent, she didn't expect that there was such a history on Earth, which Thor had never said, maybe he didn't know, after all, as a reckless man, he didn't have any knowledge at all, and he might probably understand the history of Asgard's development, but what happened in which time period was beyond his knowledge.
Jia Ying turned her head to look at Daisy beside her, and said in a very gentle tone, "Now you know why I want to capture Attillan, right?" ”
"Huh?" Daisy was stunned, the topic changed so fast that she almost flashed her waist, wasn't she still talking about the history of the Inhumans just now? Why did it suddenly turn to yesterday's battle for Attilan?
Jia Ying continued: "The Asgardians are stronger than the Kree, so the Kree were robbed of the earth, and the Inhumans were rejected and even slaughtered by the human race, and finally had to leave the earth and settle in a Kree base on the far side of the moon.
Twenty years ago, those people were stronger than the Inhuman Village, so they were able to carry out wanton killing and looting in the village, sending villagers to the operating table, slicing their stomachs open with scalpels, and taking out the internal organs..."
The more Jia Ying spoke, the heavier her tone became, the anger on her face became stronger, and finally she gritted her teeth and wanted to cut White Hall, who led the Inhuman experiment, with a thousand cuts.
Daisy hurriedly grabbed her mother's hand and comforted her: "It's over, it's all over, and there will never be another again." ”
"No, the law of the jungle never changes." Jia Ying shook her head, grabbed Daisy's hand hard, and said, "You have long been in the field of vision of those people, as long as there is a chance, they absolutely want to unlock the secret of your power and repeat what was done to me back then." ”
"But..."
"But you have the Avengers, Tony Stark, Grell Rusov? No, Daisy, all you can believe is your own strength, your potential is strong, even Attillan's crystal is not as good as yours. Jia Ying's eyes were quite hot, she grabbed Daisy's hand tightly, and said in a somewhat fanatical tone: "It's just that you won't use and tap the potential in your body, I can release your potential and let you gain unparalleled power." ”
Daisy opened her mouth slightly in surprise, it was the first time she saw her mother excited like this, saying that her strength was unparalleled, is it a bit too exaggerated, no matter how strong she is, can she withstand a nuclear bomb?
Jia Ying saw doubts in Daisy's eyes and said, "You don't believe it? ”
"No, I just think... Uh-huh..."Daisy didn't know what to say to fit the mood.
"The Black Bolt King is only the strongest Inhuman in Attillan, but compared to the history of the Inhuman race, he is nothing," Jia Ying said with a slight disdain, "The Inhuman race once had a supreme leader, who had a near-infinite lifespan and power, and was able to make the newborn Inhumans instantly master their abilities and become the strongest form.
Even the warriors of the Cree are no match for him, and it is he who has led the Inhumans to the top, and can even compete with the Cree, if it weren't for Asgard's intervention in the civil war between the two sides, maybe he could have led the Inhumans to defeat the Cree and become the Lord of Earth. ”
Daisy always felt that coming to Jia Ying today was to refresh her three views, instead of talking about the plans of these Inhumans who returned to Earth in the future, she just said that the origin of the Inhumans was the experimental product of the Cree, and now she is talking about the fact that the leader of the Inhumans can fight with the Kree people, so that the Asgardians have picked up a big bargain.
Is this a history lesson?
"You may well have inherited his potential, amazing potential and endless power, that kind of power, so amazing that even the Maker Cree are so amazed that..." ”
I almost blurted out 'this is too' from Greel, how can I say that I still have a relationship with historical figures?
Jia Ying seemed to be prepared for Daisy's shock, and asked with a smile, "Do you know my real age?" ”
"Uh..."Daisy was speechless, she really didn't know, the main reason was that the time between mother and daughter was really short, and they used to talk to each other when they met occasionally, and there was no extra time to talk about these things.
